When Master Shao and Zou Xian Cheng heard this, they were both shocked... What did County Magistrate Xu mean by this? Could it be that he wanted to replace Zou Xian Cheng and take away Zou Xian Cheng's official position?

Master Shao and Zou County Cheng looked at each other and felt that County Magistrate Xu most likely meant this.

The Prime Minister of Zouxian County swallowed the blood that poured into his mouth and said to County Magistrate Xu: "Don't worry, sir. I just have a minor illness. I just need to rest for two days. It's not serious. I can go back to the county government the day after tomorrow to do errands." "

County Magistrate Xu did not want to replace Zou County Cheng, but just warned him not to cause trouble for him. After hearing this, he waved his hand and said: "Zou County Cheng, please go back to recover in peace."

Upon seeing this, Zou Xiancheng said nothing and walked toward the county government gate supported by Master Zou Jiang and Shao.

Seeing that Zou Xiancheng was about to leave, Lu Hehua became anxious and shouted: "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, you can't leave, we will be put in prison if you leave!"

Lu Hehua's son and two daughters followed him and cried: "Uncle, uncle, help me, we don't want to be put in prison, we don't want to be slaves, wuwuwu..."

Lu Hehua's man, Niu Chengwu, said nothing, staring at Lu Hehua and Mr. Lu with a heavy expression on his face. He didn't know what he was thinking.

Master Cao couldn't bear the shouting. He turned around and kicked Lu Hehua, and said angrily: "Brother-in-law and uncle, Lu Meihua is just my master's concubine. Don't mistake your relatives here."

Lu Hehua was kicked down and fell to the ground with a scream. When she got up, Zou County Prime Minister had already been helped away by Zou Jiang and Master Shao.

Lu Hehua was so angry that she cursed Zou Xiancheng half to death in her heart.

County Magistrate Xu was troubled by the family's commotion and said to Team Leader Yang: "Come on, take them to the cell and wait for them to be punished."

"Yes." Team Leader Yang led Luo Wu and others forward and pulled Mr. Lu and his family up from their knees.

"Sir, wait!" Niu Chengwu suddenly shouted: "My lord, County Magistrate, Lu Hehua is greedy and cunning. He has disrespected his parents-in-law for many years and concealed the crime of being a runaway slave from the Niu family. The common people disdain to be married to this woman again. Please bear witness." , the common people want to divorce their wives in court and cut off their ties with the Lu family!"

As he spoke, he pulled up the hem of his own clothes, bit out a gash, then hissed, tore the hem in half and threw it on Lu Hehua's head.

Lu Hehua was stunned, jumped up and shouted: "Niu Chengwu, you ungrateful thing, you have no ability. Seeing that my Lu family is in trouble, you divorce your wife in court. Do you have any conscience? You still have children, I am the biological mother of three children. If you divorce me, what will you do with the three children?"

Niu Chengwu sneered: "Anyway, you look down on the Niu family. You have been looking forward to leaving the Niu family for a long time so that you can marry a rich family. Now I want to help you as a couple, so you should be grateful to me."

"As for the children..." Niu Chengwu looked at his son and two daughters and said, "Who let them deal with a mother like you? As a father, I can't protect them even if I want to."

Widow Yu already had his seed in her belly. According to Widow Yu, it was probably a son. He was worried about how to tell Lu Hehua to let Widow Yu in. Now there is no need to worry, just divorce the shrew Lu Hehua, and he can live with Widow Yu.

Lu Hehua looked down on the Niu family and had never had a good look towards Niu Chengwu since they got married. She thought that with the Zou family here, she could manipulate Niu Chengwu for the rest of her life. Now that she heard that Niu Chengwu wanted to divorce his wife and not even have children, she was so angry. He couldn't catch his breath and passed out immediately.

"Mom, mother, what's wrong with you? Wake up quickly." Lu Hehua's son and two daughters rushed over and cried around her.

After Lu Guihua's man Yao Minghui heard Niu Chengwu's words, he immediately said to County Magistrate Xu, as if he had opened up the two channels of Ren and Governor: "My lord, please bear witness to the students. The students did not know that the Lu family was a runaway slave. Now suddenly After hearing this, I feel deeply ashamed and do not want to associate with the Lu family. I ask you to testify that the student will divorce his wife in front of the court!"

Magistrate Xu had a headache, why did he divorce his wife in court again?

Lu Guihua was stunned when she heard this and looked at Yao Minghui in disbelief: "Ms. sir, you, you actually want to divorce me?"

Lu Guihua has always felt that Yao Minghui is good to her. Yao Minghui is a scholar. Although he has never passed the exam for most of his life, because he is the head of the family and she has a dowry from the Lu family, life at home is very easy. .

She thought that even if her father was a runaway slave, given the level of love between her and her husband, he would spend money to redeem her and live a good life in the future.

Why, why did you get to the point of divorcing your wife?

Yao Minghui said: "Osmanthus, don't blame me. I will take the exam for merit in the future. If I marry the daughter of a runaway slave and have a runaway slave father-in-law, how will I be able to gain a foothold in the scholarly community in the future? I will be laughed at by the scholars." For the sake of our relationship as husband and wife, don’t blame me... As for the children, I will go back and discuss it with my father... If we can buy it, my family will buy back the two sons."

As for Lu Guihua, he did not intend to buy it back, but wanted to marry another girl with an innocent family background.

Lu Guihua was completely confused.

The eldest brother Lu and the second eldest brother Lu were very angry and shouted at Yao Minghui: "Yao, you abandoned your wife and children when the Lu family was in trouble. You are not a scholar in vain, you are a polite scum!"

Yao Minghui didn't think there was anything wrong with what he did, and retorted: "It's your Lu family who deceived my Yao family first, and it's also my Yao family who are kind-hearted. Otherwise, I can sue your Lu family for marriage fraud!"

His Yao family married a girl from the Lu family, a good citizen, not a daughter from the Lu family, a runaway slave. There was a big difference between the two.

Bang bang!

Magistrate Xu slapped the gavel and said angrily: "That's enough. If you want to divorce your wife, go back and write a letter of divorce. If you continue to cause trouble here, I will put you both in jail and withdraw from the court!"

Magistrate Xu was so angry that he walked away, and Team Leader Yang immediately took all the Lu family members to the prison.

Although the two daughters-in-law of the Lu family were crying, they were already thinking about how to send a message to their parents' families to ask someone to come and make peace with the Lu family.

Yao Minghui and Niu Chengwu were anxious to clear up their relationship with the Lu family. As soon as they left the Yamen, they went to the bookstore, bought pens, ink, paper and inkstones, wrote two letters of divorce on the spot, and sent them directly to the county government office. After stamping the county government seal, they sent them to Go to jail and give it to the Lu family.

Boss Lu looked at the two divorce letters that had been stamped with the county government's seal, and he was so angry that he almost fainted.

Before the Lu family could decide whether they were runaway slaves or not, these two ungrateful dogs just wrote a letter of divorce and stamped it with the county government's official seal. The matter was settled. The Lu family couldn't object even if they wanted to.

Yao Minghui was a scholar, but he still had a sense of shame. After giving the Lu family a letter of divorce, he went to the county government office and asked Master Tian: "Master Tian, ​​can I buy back my two sons?"

After all, both of them were in charge, and he was already nearly forty years old. He wanted to have another baby, but he didn't know if he would be able to give birth to a son, so the two sons had to be redeemed.
