After the cannon fodder father and daughter married into the family, the whole family regretted it

Chapter 820 Fang Jin Case 4

Before she could finish her words, a bailiff came with a piece of smelly cloth and blocked Yun Ma's mouth.

Have some sense? Don't you see that the masters are still interrogating He? Do you, a servant, have the right to speak?

The prefect didn't even look at her: "He, just tell the truth."

He was actually a little scared. She was a little stupid, but judging from Nanny Yun's reaction just now, it was obvious that she had said the wrong thing.

But she thought she was being very careful.

She didn't say a single bad word about Su Qingya. She didn't scold Su Qingya for being lazy, greedy, cunning, ugly but beautiful...

Ahem, as for Su Qingya going to jail, it can’t be considered that she said something bad, isn’t that the truth?

Since it has come to this, He gritted her teeth, closed her eyes, and continued on.

"The relationship between the two sisters is not good, or it's because Su Qingya wants to cancel the engagement."

"At that time, there was a child marriage between my family and the Qin family. It was agreed that my daughter would marry Qin boy, but we already knew that Su Qingya was not our family, so we should have canceled the marriage, so forget it."

"Qin Yan was unlucky. He broke his leg while hunting in the mountains. The doctor said it couldn't be cured. His mother was afraid that his life would be ruined and he wouldn't be able to find a wife, so she raised the bride price and offered ten taels."

"It was a famine year, and ten taels was a lifeline. Su Qingya couldn't fulfill the engagement, and we were reluctant to part with the money. It was Su Qingya who suggested that Fang Nanzhi marry her off. This way, we had the best of both worlds."

"That girl tricked Fang Nanzhi into climbing a tree to pick fruit, and she greased the tree with oil beforehand. Fang Nanzhi fell down and landed right in Qin Yan's arms..."

The onlookers were stunned.

He has such a vicious mind, wanting to break off the engagement, coveting other people's money, and even plotting against the reputation of other girls?

"Fang Nanzhi was only seven years old at the time, so it's a bit far-fetched to say they had physical contact. Plus, Fang Tong absolutely refused to let his daughter marry in his place, so he had no choice but to marry into the Qin family..."

He said it lightly.

The onlookers spit on him.

"What kind of person is this? He doesn't want to get married, but he harms a seven-year-old girl and forces her father to marry into his family?"

"Her father is also a coward. How could he marry into the family? What good will it do if he insists?"

"Oh my! First he wanted to make the little girl a child bride, and then he tried to murder her. How could someone be so evil?"

Even the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture looked at Fang Tong a few more times.

Everyone in the court knew that Fang Tong was a son-in-law, the kind of son-in-law who would obey his wife's orders and never have any second thoughts.

Behind his back, many people thought he was henpecked and had no future.

I didn't expect there was such a reason. Fang Tong was really forced to marry into the family for the sake of his daughter.

There are few fathers in the world who would sacrifice themselves to protect their daughters.

"They haven't gotten along since then."

"Later, Fang Tong's family moved to Huainan Prefecture, and Su Qingya also returned from the capital. I don't know how she offended them, but Su Qingya knelt at the door of Fang Tong's house for three days..."

At that time, He was already a concubine, and she didn't know much about many things, she just heard a little.

But this one thing of hers was enough to ruin Su Qingya's reputation.

Nanny Yun's face turned pale. She had originally stopped He in order to protect the reputation of the Prince's Consort of Prince Ning's Mansion, but now... it was over.

"However, Qingya and I have been mother and daughter for many years, so our relationship is pretty good. When the Bo Mansion took her away, they left a lot of property to the Fang family, but it didn't fall into my hands."

"Later, I met her in Huainan Prefecture. Qingya felt sorry for me as her adoptive mother and became her concubine. She subsidized me with a lot of money privately." He tried hard to ease the relationship and said something good to Su Qingya.

The corner of the prefect's mouth twitched. Mother and daughter have a good relationship? They have a good relationship, so you're poking fun at her?

Fang Nanzhi was also amused by these two sentences and laughed until tears came out.

Her little body was swaying back and forth, and Fang Tong had to reach out to protect her, for fear that she would fall off the stool.

"It is said that when the Earl's Mansion came to pick up people, they brought Su Xiran with them. That is your biological daughter. Why didn't you keep her?" asked the prefect.

"Alas, what is there to keep? We are poor and penniless. The Bo family is rich and powerful. If they are willing to raise another daughter, we will also be happy to let our daughter enjoy the happiness."

He has let himself go and is only speaking the truth.

The prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture nodded, but didn't ask any further questions. He simply asked, "Did Su Qingya contact you after she returned to the capital for the second time?"

He shook her head: "Later, I was divorced and she wouldn't contact me."

"Not long after, I heard that Fang Jin had also disappeared, and there was no news of my two daughters. My Lord, it's not easy for a woman like me to raise children, so I had no choice but to remarry."

"Who knew? I was so unlucky. When I remarried, I met a swindler. He took away all my belongings. I still haven't found them! Sir, you must help me."

While wiping her tears, He secretly observed the adults' expressions.

This is to still hold on to the hope of recovering the money that was taken away.

"I will investigate this matter," said the prefect.

He was delighted. If the county magistrate couldn't find out, then the high-ranking officials in the capital would surely be able to.

"Thank you, sir. I was cheated out of all my family property and I was too ashamed to live. However, my two sons are not married yet, so I have no choice but to shamelessly take them back to the countryside to find the Fang family."

"My father-in-law, no, my ex-father-in-law is also pitiful. Both of his hands are gone and there is no one to take care of him. I originally wanted to wait until my father-in-law completely forgives his sons before I leave."

"But Lord Fang Tongfang is a kind-hearted man. He was forced to marry into the family, and later expelled from the clan and cut off ties with the family, and then adopted. But he still thought of the old man's kindness and entrusted me to take care of him."

The expressions on everyone’s faces were indescribable.

Asking the daughter-in-law who betrayed her son to come back and serve her father-in-law, is this filial piety? Or is it just a way to piss him off to death?

Fang Tong raised his eyebrows. He was quite interesting. After being scared by him, she actually became obedient?

He sighed.

"I'm too embarrassed to stay, but Lord Fang said that the clan members don't care about the old man anymore. The two brothers Qingtian have to farm and take care of things inside and outside the house. There's no one left to serve."

"I agreed to stay because I wanted to atone for my sins..."

After everyone listened, they began to understand a little bit.

That’s right, it’s good enough for an old man who is alone and helpless to have someone to serve him, so why should he be picky about the right person?

Fang Jin looked unhappy. Was He crazy? Why did she speak well of Fang Tong?

Old Master Fang knelt down with a plop: "Sir, please help me. This bitch is talking nonsense. Fang Yin and Fang Tong are the most unfilial people in the world. They probably wish I were dead!"

The prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture never expected that before he could get to the core of a case, he had to listen to a bunch of dirty talk from the Fang family.

Demoting his wife to a concubine? Sending his seven-year-old niece to marry in her place? Forcing his son to marry into his wife's family?

Are all these things really something a human can do?

"Oh? What evidence do you have?" asked the prefect.

"Sir, after the Fang Yin brothers became rich, they never looked at an old man like me, let alone gave me a penny." Old Master Fang was furious.
