The mistress is reborn, no one who bullies me can escape
Chapter 88 Testimony
No matter how stupid Wang was, she understood Xue Jinhua's meaning in an instant. She panicked and said hastily, "Yes, I really don't have the intention to kill the patriarch. It was my sister who instructed me to do this."
When Mrs. Zhou heard this, she was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. At this critical moment, if all the charges were put on her, she would be really finished.
In contrast, Wang seemed a little flustered, but she still tried her best to stay calm and retorted: "My dear sister, you made the cakes yourself, and you sent someone to deliver them. Now you accuse me of instigating you, do you have any evidence?"
"I………"
Wang originally wanted to answer that she had evidence, but when she thought about it carefully, it seemed that her sister just whispered some words in her ear, making her think of killing the patriarch, but did not leave any substantial evidence.
After all, she didn't write any contract or agreement, and no one could prove it...
"Right, sister, if you can't produce any evidence, then it can only mean that you are framing me." Mrs. Zhou was instantly proud. Fortunately, she thought that her stupid sister might regret it at the beginning. Otherwise, this matter today would be really difficult to handle!
"You...you are my biological sister, why did you do this?" Wang was anxious, tears started to fall, and her voice trembled, "How did I let you down? Why do you want to hurt me like this?"
"Sister, your words are too polite. You have to take responsibility for what you have done. Don't push the blame onto your sister if anything goes wrong." Old Mrs. Zhou said calmly, as if she had really been wronged.
Anyway, she had made up her mind and would not admit it no matter what.
Seeing that all these crimes were about to be pushed onto her, Wang was completely panicked. She knew that if these crimes were proven, her fate would be very miserable. So, she could only look at Zhao Yuhao pleadingly and said, "Yuhao, what aunt said is true. I really don't want the life of the patriarch."
"But if you can't produce evidence, Auntie, it only means that you have the intention to kill the patriarch."
"I………"
"Aunt, you better go to the court and talk it out." Zhao Yuhao choked, "Someone, take these two away."
“Don’t…” After all, Old Madam Zhou and Wang were just two women. They usually acted arrogantly in the mansion, but that was only limited to the inner house.
Now they were about to be brought to court, facing an unknown trial, and the two immediately became panic-stricken.
Old Mrs. Zhou looked at Mrs. Sanshan with eyes that seemed to be asking for help, and cried, "Mother, please save me, please save me! I am your daughter-in-law, how can you watch me go to jail?"
Mrs. Sanshan couldn't bear it after all. She turned her head and glanced at Xue Jinhua, but Xue Jinhua lowered her head, as if she was indifferent to everything happening around her and completely ignored Mrs. Sanshan's gaze.
Madam Sanshan sighed helplessly and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, you didn't kill anyone, your crime is not punishable by death, don't worry, I will definitely find a way to save you."
However, Old Lady Zhou shook her head and cried, "Mother, I know I was wrong. I always talk back to you and don't know how to be filial to you, but I am Yuan'er's biological mother after all! If you don't save him, Yuan'er will definitely hate you..."
It must be said that this old lady Zhou was indeed good at scheming. With just a few words, she easily controlled her mother-in-law's mind. Madam Sanshan was already moved, and said earnestly: "Don't worry, even if I have to use my old bones to make sure you are safe."
However, just as Madam Sanshan finished her words, a loud voice suddenly came from the door, like a huge bell: "I'm afraid that will disappoint the old lady..." Hearing this voice, Xue Jinhua unconsciously sneered, thinking to herself: It seems that Wang is really lucky...
When everyone heard the sound, they looked and saw Zhao Yu and Jiang walking in together.
Seeing them come back, Wang was so excited that she almost cried, her eyes full of joy.
At this moment, everyone seemed to be on the opposite side, only her youngest son returned, and she firmly believed that he would help her.
Zhao Yuhang wanted to rush forward immediately, but after subconsciously taking a look at Jiang, his steps stopped abruptly.
Seeing her livid face, he felt a little frightened and didn't dare to walk over easily.
"Humph, what's the point of coming back? Can you come up with any evidence to prove your mother's innocence?"
Jiang's eyes were cold and she said firmly, "Aunt, don't worry, I have evidence here."
After hearing this, Wang was so excited that her eyes filled with tears, while Mrs. Zhou was secretly surprised. However, when she thought about how cautious she had been and had not left any evidence, she believed that Jiang was just bluffing and wanted to scare her off.
"What evidence do you have? Show it out! Don't scare people here."
Xue Jinhua smiled slightly and said to Jiang: "Sister-in-law, since my aunt is so eager to die, why don't you help her?"
"How can you, an uneducated thing, talk like that?" When Mrs. Zhou heard this, she was immediately furious and started cursing.
"Aunt, you are of noble status, but I haven't seen you do anything good." Xue Jinmiao looked at Old Madam Zhou calmly, his eyes full of disdain and ridicule.
"You......" Old Mrs. Zhou was so angry that her face turned blue. She pointed at Xue Jinhua with trembling fingers, but she didn't know how to refute.
"Come over and explain everything." Jiang snorted coldly and shouted sternly to the person behind him.
As Jiang finished speaking, a pretty figure walked out from behind the crowd soon.
Old Mrs. Zhou opened her eyes wide, and when she saw who it was, her face turned pale with shock. She never expected to see Zhou Yeqing here.
"Zhou Yeqing, you rebellious girl, what are you doing?" Old Mrs. Zhou asked angrily, her voice sharp and piercing.
However, Zhou Yeqing turned a deaf ear to Mrs. Zhou's questioning, as if she didn't hear it at all. She walked straight towards Zhao Yuhao with a faint smile on her face.
"My name is Zhou Yeqing, nice to meet you, Lord Zhao." Zhou Yeqing bowed gracefully, her voice clear and pleasant.
Concubine?
Xue Jinhua's heart moved, and she immediately understood the deeper meaning. This Zhou Yeqing really did not disappoint her.
Xue Jinhua's heart moved, and she looked at Jiang subconsciously, only to find that Jiang was also looking at her deeply, with a complex expression in his eyes.
At this time, Zhou Yeqing stood up and said, "I can testify to what my stepmother did. She gave money away and instigated my mother-in-law. I was at the scene and heard it all with my own ears. The amount of rat poison I bought was not enough, and my mother even sent her maid to go again. If you don't believe me, you can send someone to investigate."
Before Old Mrs. Zhou had time to recover from Zhou Yeqing's testimony, she was shocked by her mother-in-law's words and became speechless.
Old Madam Zhou pointed at Zhou Yeqing, shaking with anger. "Zhou Yeqing, who are you calling mother-in-law? You are an unmarried girl, what are you calling her that? You have no shame, but our Zhou family still has some dignity!"
Xue Jinhua sneered and said, "With what my aunt did, the Zhou family has lost all their face, let alone their dignity."
Seeing Zhou Yeqing trembling all over, with her lips trembling with fear, Jiang finally stood up and said, "My husband has already taken in Concubine Zhou. From now on, Concubine Zhou will be the one in my room."
Everyone suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Zhou Yeqing dared to be so bold. It turned out that she had found a solid backing.
However, Old Madam Zhou snorted coldly, glared at Zhou Yeqing and said, "Humph, Zhou Yeqing is my concubine's daughter. Without my consent, no one has the right to decide her marriage."
Jiang smiled slightly, stepped aside gently, pointed at the person behind her and said, "Is that so? Then I wonder if Lord Zhou can make the decision?"
Everyone looked in the direction of her finger, and saw that there was actually a middle-aged man standing behind Zhao Yuhang. Although he was over fifty years old, his figure was not fat or out of shape, but rather he exuded a sense of elegance and bookishness. However, at this moment, his face was very ugly, especially when he looked at Old Lady Zhou, he was full of resentment and dissatisfaction.
Old Madam Zhou, Madam Sanshan, and Xue Jinhua all looked shocked. They never expected that Zhao Yuhang would bring Master Zhou here.
Xue Jinhua couldn't help but admire Jiang. This sister-in-law was really thorough. She originally thought that Wang was doomed, but now it seemed that she still had a chance of survival.
"Son, why are you here?" Mrs. Sanshan walked over excitedly, as if she had found a supporter.
"Mom, if I hadn't come this time, I wouldn't have known that this idiot had done so many shameful things behind my back." Mr. Zhou said angrily. He was full of deep disgust for Old Lady Zhou.
"Son, this family disgrace should not be made public. Let's talk about it behind closed doors and don't let others laugh at us." Mrs. Sanshan knew what her son was thinking, but she was the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family after all, and she didn't want to be laughed at by others.
However, Master Zhou remained unmoved, and his words became increasingly cold: "Mom, after so many years, aren't there enough people who laugh at her? This time she made such a big mistake, she is already beyond redemption, even if you help her, she won't be grateful to you, she may even resent you. People like her are as heartless as dogs that can't stop eating shit, they won't learn from their mistakes, but will do even worse next time."
Being scolded like this by her husband, she felt as if her heart was pierced by thousands of needles and was extremely uncomfortable.
"Uncle, it's getting late. Let's talk about business first." Xue Jinhua reminded him hurriedly.
Mr. Zhou then slowly said, "Ye Qing is my daughter, and I have agreed to her marrying into the Zhao family. As for what Ye Qing testified, it is absolutely true."
