I, Hang Zhi, was a lawyer in my previous life.
It has taken fourteen years to prove one thing: legal provisions cannot save people who have been crushed by the system.
So on the night I lost the lawsuit, I hung myself on a lamppost.
When he opened his eyes again, he became Jiao Zhongqing, a minor official in Lujiang Mansion of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
Yes, it's the Jiao Zhongqing who watched his wife being divorced and eventually both died in love in "The Peacock Flies Southeast".
Good news: I bring with me the full set of thinking tools of the modern legal professional.
Bad news: The "system" here is called feudal etiquette, which is 10,000 times more difficult to fight than administrative litigation.
Even worse news: My wife Liu Lanzhi's brother is planning to sell his sister for glory, the county magistrate is eyeing Lanzhi covetously, and my mother, the legendary "evil mother-in-law", is proposing to divorce her for the third time.
As a lawyer, I am good at three things:
1. Find loopholes in the rules
2. Build advantages in the evidence chain
3. Strive for maximum rights under procedural restrictions
Now, my "case" is this home.
My "opponent" is the entire era.
My "demand" is simple: Let Lange live with dignity.
So I started:
· Use project management thinking to handle the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law (screen plan: construction period of 4 months, deliverables: approved by Jiao's mother)
· Use auditing methods to rectify local governance (eight-county inspection: discovering problems ≠ exposing problems = turning into bargaining chips)
· Use public opinion warfare to fight against the covetousness of powerful people (rumors can be weapons, dignity can be shackles)
They say I've changed.
From a cowardly clerk to a cold and stern postal supervisor.
From being the only son, he became the pillar of the family.
Only Lanzhi asked softly in the middle of the night: "Zhongqing, are you tired?"
I'm tired.
But this time, I will not lose my family again.
Even if we have to carve out light-transmitting gaps inch by inch in this man-eating system.
[Reading Tips]
1. Not a cool article: The protagonist has no golden fingers, and all "victories" are marginal improvements.
2. Not a sweet pet: The relationship between husband and wife slowly heats up amid calculation and survival.
3. Not Machiavellian: The focus is not on court battles, but on "survival through gaps in the system"
4. Thought flow: explore the possibility of individual dignity in the system
Intention: On the edge of the system, create the shape of a home.
