The Little Darling Wife Who is a Divine Doctor Saved the Entire Family of the Duke's Mansion Chapter 214: Great Joy
Just as He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye were about to go over and greet Old Lady Cui, Mo Jiuye, who had extrely good hearing, suddenly heard chaotic noises coming from afar.
These noises did not seem to foretell any danger. Rather, they sounded like the Cui Family mbers crying and wailing...
At the sa ti, there were also sounds of people from the Zhou Family running outside the courtyard walls.
"I heard a group of governnt officials went to the Cui residence. Let's go take a look quickly!"
"Hurry up, or we won't get good spots!"
"With so much crying, the Cui Family is probably dood..."
He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye exchanged glances and headed out of the yard together.
It wasn't that they were gossipy or liked to watch other families' misfortunes. They mainly wanted to learn more about the Cui Family's situation as soon as possible, so they could buy the yard and land at the foot of the mountain earlier.
By the ti the two of them arrived near the Cui residence, the area was already crowded with villagers who ca to watch the commotion.
The crying and pleas for rcy from the Cui Family mbers were becoming more and more intense.
"Your Honor, it was all Cui Wen who did it. I had nothing to do with it at all. You can't treat like this!"
"Your Excellency, please just let go this once. I still have an 80-year-old mother at ho that I need to take care of."
"Your Honor, I beg you, spare this ti..."
The governnt officials were very impatient, constantly whipping the Cui Family mbers with rods in their hands.
"All of you shut up! Now you know to plead for rcy, but at the ti you committed those bad deeds, you didn't think about today!"
The whips fell on the bodies of over a dozen Cui Family mbers, causing their screams to rise another notch.
For the Zhao and Zhou Family mbers, such a scene was extrely gratifying.
The villainous Cui Family was finally getting their retribution.
They thought only a few Cui Family mbers would be arrested, but unexpectedly, the officials went to find the Zhao and Zhou clan leaders afterwards.
The two clan leaders had no idea why they were being implicated in the Cui Family's offenses. In front of the officials, they looked very apprehensive.
"Your Honor, we do not know why you have summoned us."
The official loudly proclaid: "The County prefect has ordered that any woman who was forced to marry into the Cui Family against her will can now get an annulnt from her husband or a divorce if she is unwilling to continue the marriage."
Soon after the official finished speaking, three won ca running from the direction of the Cui Family mbers.
The three won knelt down in front of the officials together: "Your Honors, we ask to be granted divorces."
After speaking, they did not forget to glare fiercely back at the Cui Family mbers.
He Zhiran looked over these three won. Just by their patched-up clothes, it was obvious they did not match the status of the Cui Family.
It was clear how difficult their lives must have been after marrying into the Cui Family.
While He Zhiran was lost in thought, several people also ca running from the direction of the Zhao and Zhou crowd.
They found their daughters and held them while crying bitterly.
"Er Ni, it's all because your parents were incompetent that you suffered over two years of mistreatnt in the Cui Family. But now, the County prefect has allowed you to get a divorce. Let's finalize it today!"
"Qiao Xing, those beasts in the Cui Family treated you like a servant. Today, we will help you divorce him!"
"Wonderful! My daughter finally doesn't have to suffer in the Cui Family anymore. Don't worry, once you're ho, your parents and brothers will provide for you."
As they held their daughters and wept, amidst the won's shrieking cries from the Zhao and Zhou crowd, several sturdy n dragged a few unsightly won to the officials.
The n casually flung those won onto the ground.
"Your Honor, we request annulnts. Even if we can never remarry, we don't want Cui Family won for the rest of our lives!"
"That's right, we would rather die than take Cui Family won!"
Seeing the n's determined attitude, the Cui Family won also stopped crying.
One woman who looked plump and young tried to grab one of the Zhao n's arms.
"Zhao Yushan, marrying was your blessing. Don't disgrace yourself like this!"
Zhao Yushan abruptly jerked his body back. He no longer endured like before.
"I, Zhao Yushan, do not need such blessings. You should go back to your Cui Family!"
The Cui woman refused to accept this and moved to tear at Zhao Yushan again.
"Don't you forget, I gave birth to two sons for you!"
Zhao Yushan sneered coldly: "So what if it's two sons? They still took your surna!"
The other Cui Family won who had been dragged out also attempted to cling to their husbands. From their behavior, it was obvious this wasn't the first ti they had thrown such tantrums.
Seeing the chaos, the official loudly admonished everyone before things finally quieted down slightly.
Afraid that sothing might change, the Zhao and Zhou clan leaders hurriedly ordered people to fetch paper and writing brushes on site. They publicly wrote annulnt notes for the Cui won and hastily removed the won's nas from their family trees.
Getting divorces for the won who married into the Cui Family was slightly more troubleso. Not only did the clan leaders have to help write the divorce papers, they needed to go to the county yan to stamp the official seal for them to take effect.
For this reason, the families of the won decided on the spot to follow the officials to the county yan, and finalize the divorces from the Cui n today no matter what.
The officials were also unambiguous. Regardless of whatever unlawful acts they once helped Cui Wen with, now that there was a new County prefect, they had to curry favor at all costs. This was the only way for them to redeem themselves.
Therefore, the officials worked very efficiently. After tying up those implicated Cui Family mbers, they hurried back to the county yan.
Watching over a dozen clansn taken away and so many abandoned wives and divorced husbands, the Cui Family completely deflated.
So were still prone to habitually scolding the Zhao and Zhou families. But facing their vastly different deanor now, they no longer dared.
For over ten years, the Zhao and Zhou families finally attained a sense of pride in Xi Ling Village.
They no longer needed to fear oppression and bullying from the Cui Family anymore. Life would certainly beco better and better from now on.
Seeing that the officials had left with the prisoners, He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye returned ho before the crowds dispersed to continue working on household matters, just as they had anticipated.
Sure enough, when it was nearing dusk, the horse carts continuously went back and forth, transporting all the goods from the warehouses.
Getting so many items in one day greatly astonished the Zhao and Zhou clansn. They knew the Cui Family lived prosperous lives but had never imagined the Mo Family newly settling in to purchase this much.
Moreover, most of the items being unloaded seed unfamiliar to them.
It was understandable. For soone who was once a high-ranking official in the capital city, even if he was exiled, he still had a substantial foundation.
Both families were glad that the Mo Family did not yield to Cui Wen. Otherwise, they would not have been assigned to Xi Ling Village. Their country bumpkin selves would not have the chance to broaden their horizons at ho...
