The Du family is in the rice shop business, and Du Heng's business has always been good, but he is not as kind as outsiders look, and he has the habit of beating his wife and daughter in private.

Du Heng felt that Mrs. Du could not give birth to a boy, but Du Qianqian was very business-savvy, so Du Heng could only keep her by his side to help take care of the business, while at the same time beating Mrs. Du to vent his anger.

During this period, Mrs. Du fell ill, and Du Heng refused to find a doctor for Mrs. Du.

As for why Du Heng went out that day and who he usually interacted with, Mrs. Du had no idea.

"Qianqian must be afraid that our lives will be disrupted by Du Heng again, so she refuses to say anything. Don't blame her. She is just for me and this family. Du Heng, he is not worthy of disturbing our lives."

The three of them were very complicated. After a while of silence, Zhao Yang sighed, "Now that Mrs. Du has recovered, she will follow us to Jingzhao Mansion and persuade Miss Du to tell everything she knows."

Mrs. Du nodded, "I promise you."

With Mrs. Du, Du Qianqian became much less vigilant.

Because the fourth prince was there, Lu Yuan did not dare to do anything to Du Qianqian, and he was very welcoming. When Du Qianqian saw Mrs. Du coming, she became very excited.

"Mom, why did you get out of bed? Your body..." She couldn't control her tears. A person who was originally very determined suddenly had a weakness.

It seems that this mother and daughter had a very difficult time when Du Heng was still alive.

"Mom is fine. This doctor cured me." Mrs. Du pointed at Zhao Yang, her eyes filled with gratitude.

Du Qianqian didn't quite believe it, "Mom, you didn't lie to me, did you? Are they threatening you?"

"Mom has really recovered. Look at my face and my pulse."

Mrs. Du indeed looked much healthier. Du Qianqian often took her mother to see a doctor and knew some basic pulse-taking skills. After carefully checking her pulse, her expression became very surprised.

"Really recovered...you, how did you do it?"

Zhao Yang said calmly: "I am a doctor. The things I want to investigate now are also related to the shop I want to open a medical clinic. Now we have investigated Du Heng. Miss Du, I hope you can cooperate with me."

She paused, "I already know what Du Heng did to you from Mrs. Du. Now he is dead, but the person behind him has not yet surfaced. I want to speak out for others. Are you willing to help me?"

Du Qianqian hesitated, and Mrs. Du patted her hand, "Qianqian, just tell them everything you know. Du Heng's matter should have been explained. Now that he is dead, we can feel at ease."

"Okay, you saved my mother, I'm willing to tell you, but I have conditions."

Lu Yuan next to him had a dark face, "How dare you make conditions?"

The fourth prince coughed and immediately stopped talking.

He couldn't understand why the fourth prince was so approachable now.

This case has been delayed for a long time. Isn't the fourth prince impatient? ?And what kind of identity is this Zhao Yang that deserves the fourth prince to set a precedent for her again and again?Could it be that things are going to change in the capital? !

Others didn't know what Lu Yuan was thinking, so Lu Yuan could only push them away silently, not daring to interrupt.

The fourth prince spoke up, "I can agree to your conditions."

Du Qianqian took a deep look at him and felt that this person was not an ordinary person. Considering the pattern on his clothes, she had already guessed that he was actually from the royal family.

"Okay, my request is very simple. After the matter is over, I don't want anyone to disturb us. We also don't want to get involved in anything about Du Heng anymore. I hope you let me go."

"As it should be."

With the fourth prince's words, Du Qianqian finally felt at ease.

"I actually don't know much, but there is one thing I did see..."

Du Qianqian's eyes dodge, her firmness disappearing, "I don't know if what I know is something you want to investigate, but this matter has nothing to do with my mother. If you want to blame me, you can only blame me. That’s fine.”

"I said that after this incident, I won't bother you again, that is, I really won't bother you." The fourth prince spoke again.

"Believe Your Highness, he is very kind."

Zhao Yang suddenly praised him. The fourth prince was still a little uncomfortable, but Lin Qingchen's face next to him was not very good. He crossed his arms and stared at the fourth prince coldly.

The fourth prince, who felt Lin Qingchen's gaze, coughed and quietly avoided it.

Du Qianqian finally calmed down and began to calmly talk about what happened that year.

"Actually, in the beginning, my mother and I didn't know how my father got rich. Originally we were just doing a small business. I was only four years old 20 years ago, and I can only remember a few things. My father came back from his business one day, and he was about to be born. When I got home, it was dark and snowing outside, and my father suddenly lifted me up and said happily that we would be rich in the future."

"A few days after that, dad opened a rice shop and the business was very big."

Mrs. Du also nodded beside her and agreed: "That's right. I don't know what Du Heng did outside, but he suddenly became rich. I thought it was a good thing for our family, but I didn't expect..."

Unexpectedly, Du Heng's character changed from that day on. He became greedy and arrogant, thinking that Mrs. Du was not worthy of him.

She also blamed her for not being able to give birth to a son, and she became increasingly uncertain about Du Qianqian.

Du Qianqian grew up day by day and showed business talents that were beyond ordinary people.

Therefore, Du Heng took a new look at Du Qianqian and even asked him to run a shop. At the same time, Mrs. Du also had a slightly better life.

However, whenever Du Heng got a little unhappy, beating their mother and daughter was still a common occurrence.

"I don't know why my father got rich. I only know that he often went out to meet a few people, but he didn't take me with him. There was only one time when he drank too much and asked someone to take him back. I followed the servant out of curiosity. In the past, after my father found out, he beat me all day and night. I will always remember the way my father looked at me and said I did it on purpose and wanted to kill him."

Zhao Yang saw the fear in the woman's eyes, "Then do you still remember who those people are?"

"I don't know them, but I can vaguely remember some of them. If you have a painter, I can also dictate it to you."

Du Qianqian forced a smile, "He is very cautious and never lets my mother and I know when he meets other people outside. Even the servants he commands are things we have never seen before."

"Then where do they usually meet?"

"The ruined temple on the outskirts of the city. This is what makes me most surprised. They all seem to be rich, but they refuse to go to a good place."
