After rebirth, I became a national teacher

He threw the dying Zhenniang to the ground, took out a rope, tied her up in a few seconds, and blocked her mouth.

Then they dragged the man and threw him into the cellar where vegetables were stored.

After Zhenniang got married, the cellar was expanded a lot because ice cubes had to be stored from time to time, so it was easy to hide a person.

After closing the lid, he immediately called over the three servants in the yard who had just seen him bringing Zhenniang in:

"The young mistress went back to her parents' home after arguing with me just now. She would say the same thing to anyone who asked."

Now, among the dozen or so servants in the Qiao family, except for the two who serve Zhenniang personally, the others were brought as dowry from the Qin family.

The rest were all bought by Qiao's father and mother after Zhenniang got married.

It’s not that the Qin family had few servants as dowry.

But not long after their marriage, Qiao Shiyou said that his parents did not dare to order the servants who came as a dowry from the Qin family around, because they were not bought by their Qiao family. Qiao's father and mother did not have confidence in front of the servants, and would rather suffer themselves than order the servants who came as a dowry from the Qin family around.

Zhenniang is considerate and takes care of Teacher Qiao’s self-esteem.

After hearing this hint, she naturally had no choice but to send most of her dowry servants back to her parents' home, and exchange them for silver so that Qiao's father and mother could make the purchase themselves.

So now, when Mr. and Mrs. Qiao and Mr. and his friends are at home, the money of the master, mistress and young master is displayed in full, and Zhenniang, who is actually responsible for the family expenses, looks like a young wife who has married into the family.

Now that the young master of the house had given the order, the three servants naturally dared not disobey.

Because the Qin family lived in the east of the city, Qin Dafu and others were the first believers to arrive home.

Before I even entered the door, I heard the doorman report that Teacher Qiao had come to pick up Zhenniang today.

After hearing the details of the situation described by the concierge, Mrs. Qin was greatly surprised:

"There's a fire? Why would someone suddenly set it on fire?"

Qin Dafu's face was gloomy, and he said coldly:

"The timing of this arson is just too coincidental!"

Mrs. Qin was shocked:

"Master, do you mean that he deliberately tricked Zhenniang into going back?"

Qin Dafu nodded, his expression solemn:

"As soon as we left the house, he tricked Zhenniang away. I'm afraid today's incident will not end well."

After a moment's silence, he ordered his servant, "Immediately go find Captain Yang who is in charge of the Qiao family area and tell him that there is something wrong with the Qiao family. I hope he can bring a few people here. Afterwards, I, Qin Dafu, will reward you handsomely!"

Qin Dafu is a very thoughtful person.

Because his daughter married into the Qiao family, he immediately began to win over the captain of the police in charge of that area so that when something happened, the government officials would take more care of the Qiao family.

Unexpectedly, the first time I used it would be at a time like this.

After a moment's silence, he added:

"Tell Captain Yang that we may need to interrogate and search Qiao's house today. Ask him to go to Yan Tongzhi to get an official document. Tell him that Qin Dafu asked him to go."

The servant immediately mounted his horse and went to find Captain Yang.

Qin Dafu then said to the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Qin family:

"You guys go back first, I'll handle this matter."

The two could only agree.

They are just women. They can handle the affairs in the inner house, but they can only rely on Qin Dafu to fight against the people outside.

No matter how worried you are, there is nothing you can do except wait for news at home.

Qin Dafu ordered a dozen strong servants and hurried to Qiao's house.

When he got there, he did not go to the Qiao residence and knock on the door first. Instead, he asked someone to inquire around the area and confirmed that someone had seen Zhenniang and Qiao's teacher and friend enter the Qiao residence but never come out. Only then did he go to the Qiao residence and knock on the door.

The door opened, and Mr. Qiao, Mr. Qiao and his friend came to greet people with their servants as usual.

Qin Dafu was in no mood to waste time talking to them, so he got straight to the point and asked:

"Where's Zhenniang? Call her out!"

Father Qiao pretended to be puzzled and said:

"Zhen Niang? Didn't she go back to her parents' home? Why are your in-laws asking us?"
