Farm widows have space, pick up a treasure on the way to escape

Chapter 1070 Just for such a trivial matter?

Jiang Jiuniang asked Chunhua: "Why hasn't Chuncao come back yet?"

Chunhua explained: "She wanted to investigate further and kept a lookout outside the magistrate's office. I was worried that the ladies would be impatient, so I came back first to report."

Without Nanny Pang being the troublemaker, Chunhua and Chuncao were already fully loyal to Peng Yuan, and they also wanted to show it at the critical moment and change their status in Peng Yuan's heart.

Jiang Jiuniang said: "You did a good job. You should also keep an eye on it and report back if there is any situation."

"Yes."

After Jiang Jiuniang arranged the people, Peng Yuan said in a panic: "Sister Jiuniang, what should we do now? I don't feel safe in the courtyard where we live now or in the other courtyard of the prefect's house. Why don't we change places?"

Peng Yuan felt that she had been pregnant for three years. This was the first time she was pregnant. If something happened, she would immediately become confused.

Fortunately, Jiang Jiuniang was always by her side to help her deal with these things, otherwise she really wouldn't know what to do.

"Don't panic, it's Cao Zheng's family who should panic."

Cao Zheng is the name of the prefect.

She continued to comfort her: "This villa is said to be his, but it is not entirely his. It was bought by the previous magistrate. It was just because he colluded with the king and all his assets were confiscated, so this villa was left behind. It couldn’t be taken away anyway, and the prefect’s government office was already a little dilapidated, so the superiors gave the other courtyard to the current prefect as compensation.”

"But as a prefect, Cao Zheng was worried about being ridiculed if he didn't live in the prefect's government office, so he renovated the government office. The whole family lived there, so this courtyard became empty. We don't want to live in this courtyard. It’s also vacant, this is a government house, it can’t be bought, sold or rented easily, it has no other use at all, so don’t feel any pressure anymore.”

This little girl has a simple mind and thinks that she lives in someone else's house, so the other party targets her.

In fact, how can things be so simple?
However, she would not make any comments until Chun Hua Chun Cao came back, and she would rather wait and see what the specific reason was.

At this time, in the magistrate's office, after hearing the servants' reports, some people started to panic.

But it's not Cao Zheng himself, but Cao Shulan, Cao Zheng's daughter.

She paced back and forth uneasily, and asked her mother who was relatively calm beside her: "Mom, what should I do? These things that fail to accomplish anything but fail easily, have made things worse instead of getting things done!"

Those who came back said that Mrs. Lu seemed to have doubts, but finally let everyone go. Logically speaking, nothing would happen, but she was still a little nervous.

She had met Jiang Jiuniang. She looked like a fairy. She heard that she was a beauty with both intelligence and intelligence. She was worried that Jiang Jiuniang was too smart and it would be bad if she was found.

"Why are you panicking? Didn't you tell me everything is fine? With your courage, what big things can you accomplish in the future?"

Mrs. Cao, Mrs. Ma, was a little impatient. She just felt that her daughter was very useless. She was so afraid that nothing had happened. If something happened, wouldn't she be scared to death on the spot?

"But didn't they say that Jiang Jiuniang seems to be a little suspicious? Who knows what Jiang Jiuniang has done since she came to Huizhou City? Such a smart person might really find out about us!"

It's not that she insists on emphasizing other people's ambitions and extinguishing her own prestige, it's because Jiang Jiuniang's voice in Huizhou City is so loud that it's hard not to know.

I originally wanted to find someone to do it when Jiang Jiuniang was not around, but Peng Yuan seemed to have no soul. Every time she went out, she would always be accompanied by Jiang Jiuniang. If Jiang Jiuniang went to work in the workshop, she could stay in another courtyard all day without going out. Why? No chance to make a move.

This led them to make dangerous moves and take action in the street.

At that time, they were the only two women on the street. The other two skilled maids were far away and had no time to save people. Logically speaking, it was a sure thing, but in the end they were intercepted by Jiang Jiuniang.She had always known that Jiang Jiuniang was smart, capable, and good at medicine, but she never expected that the woman could actually do martial arts. She lifted the little beggar up in a flash without touching Peng Yuan next to her. She really thought It’s incredible even thinking about it.

The main reason is that the little beggar is not very young, he is already eleven or twelve years old, and he is very strong, but Jiang Jiuniang can lift him up easily.

It was precisely because of this that Cao Shulan was so frightened that she became restless.

Ma twitched the corners of his lips and said with a smile, "So what if they find out? Where's the evidence?"

"Isn't the evidence just..."

Cao Shulan reacted before she finished speaking, and said in disbelief: "What does mother mean?"

As she said that, she made a gesture of poking her neck.

The most important evidence of this matter is the few servants and the little beggar. The servants are all our own, and the body and deeds are all in their hands. Naturally, there is no way to get rid of the situation, but the little beggar cannot be sure.

If Jiang Jiuniang reacted and bribed the little beggar, wouldn't their leverage fall into the hands of the other party?
Ma was very satisfied with her daughter's reaction speed and said: "If you want to achieve great things, you must not be merciful. Don't you want to marry General Qin? If you don't want to be a concubine, you must be brave enough."

Cao Shulan's face was pale and she was obviously frightened by her mother's words, but she thought it made sense. She liked Qin Jian, and as the daughter of the prefect, her status was not low. She didn't want to be a concubine, so she could be a stepmother.

If she wants to be a stepmother, Peng Yuan and the child in her belly must die.

Thinking of this, her expression softened a lot. If you want to achieve big things, you have to be bold.

"I understand, mother, I'm going to send someone to deal with that little beggar."

That night, Jiang Jiuniang finished checking the dog's homework and was getting ready to go to bed when Chunhua came.

"Madam, my girl asks you to come over."

Jiang Jiuniang glanced at the sky. It was already late at night. Logically speaking, Peng Yuan should have gone to bed long ago. Why are you still looking for her now?

"what happened?"

"You'll know when Ma'am is gone."

Chunhua lowered her head and didn't say anything more. Jiang Jiuniang didn't care much either. Anyway, Peng Yuan's yard was right next to it, so we could just go there and talk.

When they arrived at Peng Yuan's yard, they found that the yard was still brightly lit with candles. Peng Yuan was sitting in the yard waiting for her. When she saw her coming, she said apologetically: "Sister Jiu Niang, look!"

She pointed at the little beggar sleeping on the ground and said: "The people from the government sent people to take this little beggar's life at night. Spring flowers and spring grass brought him back. I didn't know what to do with him, so I took you in the middle of the night." Please come here."

Jiang Jiuniang understood immediately: "Are they planning to kill people and silence them? Just for such a trivial matter?"

Jiang Jiuniang was about to laugh out loud. As the magistrate of a city, Cao Zheng was so careless about human life!
Peng Yuan nodded, with a very ugly expression on her face. This little beggar was still so young that Cao Zheng couldn't even tolerate him. How could he be a good parent official?
