Lady Wan Guan

Chapter 39 A stack of blank paper

"Mom, I have a heartfelt request."

Mrs. Chen stared at her son: "This is a family matter."

She knew what Pingzhang wanted. Pingzhang hated evil and wanted to fight against injustice. What's more, Lady Jiang also gave Pingzhang a Duan Inkstone from a vacant master, so she owed Lady Jiang a favor.

She also sympathized with Mrs. Jiang. She married far away from Jiangcheng. She was filial to her parents-in-law and respectful to her husband. She spent money and effort to hold a birthday banquet for her mother-in-law. If Lin Ruoruo hadn't pointed it out, and if the Lu family hadn't filed a lawsuit, she would still have been kept in the dark. Treat people who want to harm her.

However, speaking of it, she was still somewhat close to the Yao family, so it was not convenient for her to come forward.

Chen Pingzhang said: "Mom, my second sister also married far away. Wouldn't you feel bad if she was bullied and persecuted in her husband's family? Poor Mrs. Jiang has lost her mother since she was a child, and there is no one around her who can help her make decisions."

Mrs. Chen felt that the softest place in her heart had been stabbed hard.She gave birth to a daughter and was reluctant to marry far away. However, the Chen family was in crisis and needed help, so she could only reluctantly let Yan'er marry far away from Fangzhou.Every time she thought about Yan'er being wronged in her husband's family, she was worried.

"Mom, you don't need to do anything, you just need to be there to witness."

Mother is present, representing the Chen family. The Chen family has always been upright, so the prefect must be extremely cautious and dare not show favoritism.

"That's all, I'll go take a look." Mrs. Chen finally relented.

The originally lively birthday banquet, as Song Yao was taken away, the guests dispersed in a hurry, leaving only a group of Song family members who were frightened, uneasy and at a loss.

"I really didn't expect that the eldest lady is not weak, but she was poisoned."

"Madam, I'm afraid she won't be able to come back..."

"The Song family won't just collapse, right?"

"Then what shall we do?"

Song Yu was upset and shouted angrily: "Get out of here, everyone."

The servants dispersed like birds and beasts.

Song Yu caught a glimpse of Song Heng still standing there and said angrily: "Why don't you go to the Yamen and keep an eye on him."

Song Heng turned around and left with an expressionless face.

At this moment, his mood was very complicated. Normally, he was the son of the Song family, so he might not be honored by the Song family, but he would definitely not take advantage of the Song family's misfortune. But at this moment, he really wanted to laugh, and he felt so happy that he couldn't describe it.

Madam had oppressed their mother and son for so many years, and he had thought of countless ways to break free from this prison.It was easy for him to go alone, but he couldn't ignore his mother, so he could only endure it, study hard and hide his clumsiness, waiting for the day when he would be named on the gold medal list, feel proud and proud, and let his mother be as valuable as his son.

I never thought that my wife would fall down right now, which can be said to be a cycle of retribution.

Wu Niang burst into tears: "Brother, please quickly think of a way to save my mother."

Song Yu had never experienced anything like this before. He was already in a state of confusion and his mind was in a state of confusion.

Xu Ziyin was still calm: "Mr. Song, please immediately send someone to send a message to me and ask him to come back. This matter cannot be solved by you or me, so we can only ask him to come back and solve it."

"Yes, yes, tell dad quickly." Wu Niang nodded hurriedly.

"My mother and third aunt have gone to the Yamen now. I will go home immediately and ask my father to come forward to mediate with the magistrate. However, I'm afraid it will have no effect if I just talk about it in vain. Now I have to spend money on it. Song Lang, Gong Zhong's accountant How much money do you have left? Whatever you have on hand, take it out first!"

Song Yu hurriedly called Manager Zhong and Mr. Zhou. When he asked, there was not a penny left in the account. It was all used up for the birthday banquet. He still owed a lot of money. He said he would pay it after the birthday banquet.

Song Yu said gloomily: "It seems that we can only use that money. A Yin, go back and get 1 taels and give it to your father. If it is not enough, let's talk about it."

Although Xu Ziyin was reluctant, the matter was serious. If her aunt could not be freed from the trouble, it would directly affect Song Lang's career. For the long-term plan, she had to give up even if she didn't want to.

"Okay, I'll go right now."

The three split up.

Xu Ziyin hurried home and immediately took out the box from the cabinet.

However, as soon as the box was opened, Xu Ziyin was stunned. She blinked hard and picked up a piece of white paper in disbelief. There was another piece of white paper underneath. When she turned over it again, it was still white paper.She dumped the box of lunch money on the table, which was all blank paper.

Xu Ziyin suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, this... what is going on?

She went to open Wuniang's box again, but it was the same situation. All the money turned into a pile of blank paper for no apparent reason.

But when Song Yu handed it to her, it was clearly money. After she got it back, she counted it again and looked at each one carefully to see that it was indeed money.

And to be cautious, she added a lock to the box and locked the cabinet. She only had one key, which she took with her.

In other words, no one but her can open the box.

How was the convenience money exchanged?

Xu Ziyin thought hard and couldn't imagine that the money was printed by Jiang Wanning with a special potion. In just four or five days, the words and patterns on it would disappear and turn into a blank piece of paper.

Jiang Wanning had already calculated the time.

Xu Ziyin felt that all the blood in her body was rushing to her head. She immediately called Siqin, Siqi and all the servants serving in her yard, and questioned them harshly, but found nothing.

Xu Ziyin sat paralyzed on the embroidered pier, lost in thought.A total of 16 taels of pennies turned into a pile of waste paper. How was she going to explain it to Song Yu?
She said she didn't have the money, who would believe her?
Song Yu was still waiting for her to get money to save people, but she lost the money.

In the back office of Jiangcheng Mansion.The magistrate Zhu had a big head, and his men arrested Yao, the wife of Song Qian, who was also the magistrate of Xuancheng, and arrested her for murder, saying that the evidence was conclusive.

A group of celebrities from Jiangcheng and respectable ladies also came to the government office to see how the government would judge the case.Among them were the wife of the Chen family, Shen Qiu, the wife of Mr. Shen, the Tongzhi of Jiangcheng, and Li Yu, the wife of Mr. Li, the general magistrate.

"Why didn't you come back earlier with a message?" Mr. Zhu couldn't help complaining about his wife.

If he had known earlier, he would have found an excuse to hide out.

Mrs. Liu said: "I thought you knew, otherwise Mr. Xing would dare to break into the birthday party to get someone?"

"The person is not sent by me, but by the arrest document issued by Li Tongjian. This Li Tongjian is usually very quarrelsome. I don't know why he is crazy today, so he is so rash."

Liu Shixin said: What else can you do to get crazy?Go crazy for money!
If he hadn't received the benefits, would Li Tongpuan dare to take on this matter?Although Mr. Song does not work in Jiangcheng, he is still a colleague!In terms of official rank, he is half a rank higher than Li Tongpan.

No wonder Mrs. Li danced so happily today.

"What should we do now? Everyone is watching!" Ms. Liu asked.

Mr. Zhu held his forehead and said: "It's okay for the others, but Mrs. Chen is here, so it's hard to fool them."

Chen Jianghe holds an important position in the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and the assessment of officials from other places is under Chen Jianghe's charge. Failure to handle this matter is directly related to the black hat on his head.

"Look, where is Mrs. Chen standing?"

Mrs. Liu thought for a while: "It's hard to say whether Mrs. Chen will stand up to Mrs. Jiang, but Dr. Lin is treating Old Mrs. Chen. I heard that Old Mrs. Chen's condition has improved greatly, and Dr. Lin will definitely need to continue his treatment in the future. Therefore, Mrs. Chen is sure It’s Dr. Lin, and Dr. Lin is the key figure who testified about Song Yao’s poisoning.”

Mr. Zhu stroked his three-inch long beard and understood that Mrs. Chen also wanted to protect Dr. Lin for Mrs. Chen. Protecting Dr. Lin was equivalent to protecting Mrs. Jiang.

Mrs. Liu opened her mouth and wanted to speak but stopped.

Lord Zhu clicked his tongue: "If you have anything to say, just say it."

Mrs. Liu said weakly: "A few days ago, Miss Ziyin of the Xu family asked me to be a witness through our Luo'er. The son of the Song family and Lady Jiang have reconciled. I heard that Lady Jiang gave all the dowry to The son of the Song family."

Mr. Zhu:…

I didn't know what to say for a moment. My wife was good at everything else, but she was short-sighted and would agree to anything if someone gave her some favors.

That's all, Brother Song Qian, I'm going to be sorry this time, Zhu can only do business on business.
