Farming Happiness: Husband, Come and Plough the Fields

Lin Manjin's face darkened, and he was about to get angry, but he quickly restrained himself and reminded himself that this is a court, and he must not damage his image.

"My lord, Lin Manjin clearly knows that the Wang family has a husband and a son, but they do this behind their backs, so you can't be forgiven lightly."

Wu Fu kowtowed to the magistrate, and when her brother came to a critical moment, he was frightened and stumbled, unable to speak clearly, so she could only tell the story on his behalf.

Adultery is a felony for Daqi, and one cannot turn a blind eye to it.

Going to the court to seek justice, if Lin Manjin hadn't confessed too quickly and had no chance to discuss with Wang, maybe he was the one who was splashed with dirty water.

How arrogant Wang was when he entered the door, insisting that the money was used by the elder brother to gamble.

And parents, after this incident, heartbroken.

"What is adultery? I sell things, Mrs. Wang is born, and we are doing business."

Lin Manjin almost jumped up, this family is really ruthless, and they want to label him an adulterer!

He must never admit it, otherwise he would have to hang up a sign and parade through the streets. In that case, his daughter would lose face and the marriage would be ruined.

"Who is doing business with you?"

Just when Lin Manjin thought the explanation made sense and she could sit back and relax, Wang spoke up, lost her feelings, and asked her to bear the blame herself. How is that possible?

Lin Manjin underestimated her too much!

Vanity, prostitution, and lies, she has been labeled as such, and it will be difficult to wash herself off in the future.

Wang looked down, seeing her man's attitude, she must divorce her, otherwise she wouldn't be cruel to go to the Yamen.

At that time, her natal family will not be able to tolerate her. The world is so big that there is no place for her to stay, so she can only find a rope to hang her to death.

The problem is, she doesn't want to die, why should she die?

Lin Manjin is good, if she slanders her, even if she goes to jail, she will have to tear off a layer of flesh and blood from the other party.

"Your Excellency clearly understands that the little woman and Lin Manjin are committing adultery, not the business he said."

Wang Shi rubbed her eyes and spoke eloquently.

Lin Manjin was carrying goods in the village, carrying new tricks in his shoulder pole, coming and going again and again, and the two got to know each other well.

At first, she just thought the pattern was pretty, so she always went to buy some purses and handkerchiefs. Lin Manjin was sweet-talking, and always praised her. Gradually, her mind became more active.

For a few months, Mr. Lin Manjin came to the village, and then caught up with the busy farming season, and there was no one at home, so he came to the door in the backyard, and the two of them hid in the woodshed.

"Lin Manjin gave me incense powder, handkerchiefs, and pendants, saying that only fresh and good things are worthy of me."

Wang covered her face in pain, it was too late to say these things now, she was deceived by Lin Manjin, who knew she was a married woman, but he still touched her.

At first, she resisted fiercely, and Lin Manjin promised that she was a widower with only one daughter, and if her husband found out, he would marry her and have a son.

"My lord, some of them are the fault of the women, but is Lin Manjin really not at all wrong?"

Mrs. Wang knelt on the ground, unable to get up for a long time. She only had two requests. First, she hoped that the magistrate could help, and she wanted to return the silver hairpin to its original owner.

Secondly, if there is guilt, Lin Manjin who dragged her into the water cannot be let go.

"My lord, you must not, the grass people refuse to return the things you gave away!"

Lin Manjin glared at Wang Shi with hatred, and scolded the unlucky girl in her heart, it's not good to make troubles anytime, and she insisted on catching up with her daughter's happy day.

Now that the yamen sent someone to recover the silver hairpin, the in-laws must think he stole it!

"My lord, Cao Min is willing to return ten taels of silver."

Lin Manjin has been in business for many years, and has some savings in his hand, which can be taken out with ten taels of silver, but he can't lose face.

"Ten taels of silver? Can official silver be compared with ordinary silver?"

Wu Fu shook her head and refused, she wanted to recover her own money.

The three parties were fighting with each other, refusing to forgive each other, and scolding each other in the courtroom.

"Lin Manjin, you are a heartless man, you have harmed me, you have harmed me for the rest of my life!"

The situation was over, Wang stood up, like a mad buffalo, butted her head on Lin Manjin's chest, her eyes were red, and she wanted to tear him apart.

Lin Manjin knelt on the ground, unable to dodge in time, staggered and fell to the ground, only feeling his chest heaving, his throat was sweet, and he almost spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Bitch, what are you doing?"

Lin Manjin grabbed Wang's hair and dragged it around on the ground. Wang didn't show any weakness, and scratched Lin Manjin's body with his nails.

The two fought in a scuffle, neither giving in to the other.

"You bitch, for a few copper coins you can play with a prostitute, adultery? I will find you for adultery?"

Lin Manjin was injured, so he couldn't help yelling at him immediately, saying it was hard to hear, regardless of whether he was in court or not.

"Lin Manjin, you are ashamed to say, you are a piece of trash, your bottom is not three inches long, and the tail of a rabbit is longer than you!"

Wang spat, her hair was pulled so painfully, her tears and snot mixed together, describing her as a mess.

Wufu didn't sympathize with her at all. If I knew today, why bother? deserve it!

"A rabbit tail?"

Maotou is small and doesn't understand these things. He gestured with his fingers to the length of the rabbit's tail, making the prefect's mouth twitch. Everyone present, almost unanimously, cast their eyes on Lin Manjin's lower body.

Lin Manjin was so hacked that he became even more angry now. Being ridiculed for being short was more embarrassing than wearing a cuckold!

"Ms. Wang, you are not a good person either. You don't know how many people you serve. Look at your little bastard, he doesn't look like your green hat man at all!"

The two scolded endlessly, and finally the magistrate saw that the meeting would be lively, but seeing that it was really not good, he asked the official to separate the two.

"The silver hairpin was sent by the Wang family, but it is not Wang's. In theory, it should be returned to the original owner."

After the magistrate settled the case, he asked the officials to pursue it. As for whether it would delay Lin Manjin's daughter's marriage, it was out of his consideration.

In the courtroom, there was a sudden smell of burning. The magistrate smelled it and was puzzled. When he lowered his head, he jumped up.

"Oh, my lord's socks are burnt, hurry up and pour water to put out the fire!"

The master standing on the side shouted, and the surrounding officials were in a hurry.

The magistrate watched the excitement and concentrated his energy. He put his feet directly on the charcoal basin, and he didn't realize it until his socks were stuck.

Fortunately, he found it in time, and the burn on his foot was not serious, but his face sank, and he was ready to take his anger out on Lin Manjin and Wang Shi.

If there were no these two people, he would just sit on the top of the hot kang, who would like to listen to these small people moaning in the courtroom.

Don't talk nonsense anymore, men and women are convicted of adultery. The next day, Wang and Lin Manjin will parade in the border town for three days.

On the day of the parade, the common people would bring baskets filled with rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs, and wherever they went, everyone would shout and beat them. From now on, you will have to cover your face when you go out on the street, otherwise you will be a rat crossing the street, which is the price of adultery.
