Chapter 426 For her good
Mrs. Qiao was stunned for a moment and said in a daze: "What did you say? There is no such punishment in the yamen?"
Hua Jingyao shook her head firmly: "No."
"But I have heard people say since I was a child that being unfaithful means…" Mrs. Qiao couldn't continue to say anything, and she covered her face and started crying.
"Where is Da Qiao buried, why is there no grave?" Hua Jingyao asked.
"Her grave is in Xiaoshanzi Village..." Mrs. Qiao lowered her head.
"Xiaoshanzi Village?" Hua Jingyao looked at Chen Xiao beside her and asked, "Where is this?"
Chen Xiao had never heard of it. He said to Mrs. Qiao in a deep voice: "Tell me in detail, where is Xiaoshanzi Village and why is your daughter buried there?"
Qiao's face was ashamed, she sighed and said, "There is no way. My daughter swallowed her breath, and the bastard didn't even look at her, so she asked us for the remaining ten taels of silver and bride price. I said I wanted to buy a coffin for my daughter first. The bastard scolded me when I heard this. He said that my daughter was not innocent and didn't know how many wild men... He said that my daughter was not worthy of being buried in his ancestral grave. He lost his wife for nothing, and asked us not only to return ten taels of silver, but also to compensate him for her. Her father was so anxious that he almost knelt down for him. The daughter was a married daughter, but she couldn't bury her husband's grave. What's wrong with this? My father and I were also anxious at the time. I was guarding the daughter's body in the dilapidated temple. Her father went out and wanted to go back to the village to find a way. I just said to buy a coffin first, so I couldn't let the daughter lie down like this..."
"What happened later?" Hua Jingyao remembered Xiao Qiao's family buried not far from the Qiao family's ancestral grave. Yes, Xiao Qiao and Lao Li have no marriage letter. Strictly speaking, she has not officially married. She is still the daughter of the Qiao family. Unmarried daughters cannot be buried in the cemetery of her parents' ancestral grave, but can be buried near the ancestral grave.
Xiao Qiao's family can do it, but Da Qiao's family who officially got married cannot.
Old Li did not allow her to be buried in the Li family's ancestral tomb, nor did her parents' cemetery do.
Xiao Ai, who was beside him, muttered in a low voice: "There are empty places everywhere here, and you can bury it any place. It's not that you have to go to the ancestral grave, the fifth girl..."
Xiao Ai wanted to say that Hua Jinglin, a girl from Hua Wu, was the grave that You Shuncai bought. That place was far away from the ancestral tomb of the Hua family.
But Xiao Ai was worried that her girl would be sad when she heard the words "Fifth Girl", so she swallowed the words to her mouth.
Hua Jingyao didn't say anything, but Mrs. Qiao heard it. She looked at Xiao Ai in surprise and said, "What are the words of the little sister? The woman has no children. If she can't be buried in the ancestral grave, she will be bullied when she goes to the underworld. She will be lonely and wild ghosts and can't even reincarnate."
Xiao Ai was dumbfounded when he heard this. What does it mean? Can the fifth girl be reincarnated?
Hua Jingyao patted Xiao Ai on the shoulder and whispered: "Don't interrupt."
Xiao Ai flatters his mouth, so if he doesn’t interrupt, he won’t interrupt.
Hua Jingyao looked at Mrs. Qiao and asked, "You continued, what happened later, why was your daughter buried in that small mountain village?"
"Oh, her father went back to the village to find Mr. Li Zheng. After hearing this, he shook his head. This is a married daughter and there is no rule to bury us. Mr. Li Zheng is a good person. He borrowed a few taels of silver for her father and asked him to buy a coffin first. Her father met the bastard again. Her father thought that the bastard was going to cause trouble in the village, but the bastard said that although the eldest daughter was not a wife and was embarrassed, after all, he could not watch her become a lonely ghost when a couple was in a relationship. He just heard on the road that the son of a family in Xiaoshanzi Village had died soon after. He wanted to be a good match. After all, he could bury him in the ancestral grave of the family. He also said that he wanted to adopt his son. In this way, the eldest daughter could still benefit from the rich and receive the incense of his son." Mrs. Qiao sighed, but spoke fluently.
Hua Jingyao gasped and asked, "You gave Da Qiao's mate? That's why she buried her in Xiaoshanzi Village? This mate is free, is it worth the money?"
Qiao Ma Zi gritted her teeth and was very angry: "Her father is a famous honest man. He can't speak or talk about money with others. This matter is a bastard from beginning to end. The family's surname is Han, a rich family in the village. However, his son is a pockmarked son, and he has a thirty or forty years. Now that he is dead, the family wants to match him with a ** so that he will not have a wife even if he is in the underworld. The bastard will ask for one hundred taels and lied to the family that my daughter is his cousin. Although she has been married, she is young and beautiful and has never given birth to a child. The son of that family also married him when he is alive.
If I didn't want my wife, I really believed it by the bastard. Oh, the little mountain village is in a mountain valley. The village has no contact with our Beihou Village. I don't know that my daughter has been harmed by humans. It's also a pleasure to give 100 taels of silver. I agreed at that time that the bastard would take fifty taels, and my family would pay the fifty taels. The coffin money was paid by my family, but the bastard would refuse to admit it when he returned to the village and insisted that we give him the fifty taels, otherwise we would go to the yamen to sue us and say that we had given his wife a **. Isn't this nonsense? It was clearly what he mentioned... "
It turned out that the time when Lao Li went to the village to make a big fuss because he was given a fifty taels of silver.
If it weren't for the words Qiao Pozi said in person, the villagers would have thought it was because of Da Qiao's innocence.
Hua Jingyao asked coldly: "Did you give him fifty taels?"
"No, my second daughter came out of the house, and that bastard..." Mrs. Qiao's eyes flashed, and she didn't dare to look at Hua Jingyao.
Hua Jingyao didn't want to let her go, and sneered: "Old Li proposed that you either pay Xiao Qiao to him or give him fifty taels of silver. So you asked him to take Xiao Qiao away and let Li Zheng be a middle-aged man, right?"
"Oh, my second daughter is a miserable person. It is also her blessing to be able to marry into the capital. Besides, we have no choice..." Mrs. Qiao whispered.
"Nothing nonsense, what kind of blessing? Just because she is not your biological child, you think this is her blessing? Do you know what life did your biological daughter live with the bastard? One died, and you sent the second one, and kept saying that you had no choice, is there no way? You just made the fifty taels of silver. It was only fifty taels, and you sold two daughters. What is the difference between you and Lao Li?"
Hua Jingyao slapped the table with a slap. Shen Xiao glanced at the broken table, a little worried that the table would be slapdated by Hua Jingyao.
"You can't say that, my eldest daughter can enter the Han family's ancestral grave and this little daughter can also marry into the capital. This is a good thing, it's all a good thing."
