The mistress is reborn, no one who bullies me can escape

Although Xue Jinhua did not personally attend the trial of Wang and Zhou Wang, Yinghua brought back the news in the evening.

"Miss, the court has already tried the case."

"Oh?" Xue Jinhua drank her tea nonchalantly and asked, "So it seems to be quite fast?"

Xue Jinhua smiled slightly, seemingly not surprised.

"How can I not be quick? Although the old lady of my aunt is making excuses, the evidence is irrefutable and there is no point in making excuses."

Yinghua described it vividly: "Our old lady didn't know about this business, and the poisoning of the patriarch was also instigated by the aunt. If you ask me, this aunt is really a troublemaker. Not only is she vicious, but she also wants to implicate others. Now she has been detained, and it seems impossible for her to get out."

"What was the Zhou family's reaction?"

"What other reaction could there be? At first, Madam Sanshan wanted to beg for mercy, but I don't know what happened later... so she stopped begging.

Not only did he not ask for it, but he also watched coldly from the sidelines. "

A cold smile appeared on Xue Jinhua's lips. Of course she would not beg for help. With the Jiang family taking care of Zhou family's funeral, they were more than happy to have it. They wanted to get rid of this source of trouble as soon as possible.

"Although the old lady was deceived, she did something wrong after all, so she was directly imprisoned. Because the second master is here, I'm afraid she won't be imprisoned for a few days."

"Oh? From what you said, it seems like you wish the old lady would be imprisoned."

"Of course. On weekdays, the old lady is just like that annoying person, always looking for trouble with the young lady. Naturally, I wish she could stay in there for a while longer, so that the young lady can have a few days of peace and quiet."

Xue Jinhua looked at her serious expression and couldn't help but smile, "Don't worry! Even if she comes out, she won't have the chance to cause trouble to me again."

Sakura looked confused, "Miss, how do you know?"

"You'll know then."

Seeing her young lady's calm demeanor, Yinghua was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, "My dear young lady, please stop keeping me in suspense. Aren't you going to drive me crazy?"

Xue Jinhua remained silent. Yinghua wanted to continue asking, but she deliberately changed the subject, "Such a big thing happened in this family. Is there any news from the master?"

"Xintao knows about this matter, and I guess the master cannot be unaware of it." Sakura replied softly.

Hearing this, a hint of displeasure flashed in Xue Jinhua's eyes. She originally thought that Zhao Yuxuan would at least have some compassion, but now it seems that he is indeed selfish enough.

"Even though he knew about this, he still remained silent and watched his mother being sent to the yamen without doing anything. It seems that Zhao Yuxuan is really a selfish person." Xue Jinhua said in a cold tone.

Sakura nodded in agreement.

She also felt that Zhao Yuxuan was going too far. If it were her, she would definitely not watch her loved ones suffer.

I don’t know how Wang felt after she knew about this.

But it’s better this way. If Zhao Yuxuan doesn’t care about this matter, it will be easier to deal with Wang’s affairs later.

Thinking of this, a hint of cunning flashed in Xue Jinhua's eyes.

"You give this letter to the patriarch." Xue Jinhua took out a letter from her arms and handed it to Yinghua.

"Yes, Miss." Sakura took the letter and left in a hurry.

By the next day, Xue Jinhua was sitting leisurely on a chair, holding a book in her hand and reading quietly.

The breeze blew gently, ruffling her hair and bringing a hint of freshness.

At this moment, Yinghua hurried into the yard, her face full of anxiety. She ran to Xue Jinping and said with a heavy breath, "Miss, Miss, it's bad! Master Yuhao and the second master are fighting!"

Upon hearing the news, Xue Jinhua raised her eyebrows slightly and her eyes flashed.

However, he was not too surprised. Instead, he raised a faint smile and asked softly, "Oh? Is it because of the old lady's matter?"

Yinghua's face was full of surprise, her eyes widened as she stared at Xue Jinhua, and she asked in disbelief, "Miss, how did you know about this?"

Xue Jinhua raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing an unfathomable smile. He did not directly respond to Sakura's question, but instead cast his gaze toward the distant sky, with an irrepressible excitement flashing in the depths of his eyes.

Sakura became more and more confused and full of doubts. She really couldn't understand why her young lady was so happy and joyful.

She couldn't help but raise her hand and scratch her head. She stood there at a loss as to what to do. She could only stare blankly at the expression on Xue Jinhua's face, trying to find some clues to answer her doubts.

This young lady of our family seemed to be even more ecstatic than when the old lady and the aunt were imprisoned.

"Originally, the Second Master planned to bring the old lady directly back to the Zhao family, but Master Yuhao's men sent her directly to the head of the clan. I'm afraid Master Yuhao and the Second Master are still in a stalemate."

"Let's go and join in the fun."

When Xue Jinhua brought Sakura to the door of the patriarch's house, a burst of noise reached their ears.

Zhao Yuhang shouted angrily: "Zhao Yuhao, don't think that just because you are a minor official, you can control all the affairs of the Zhao family! Today, I must take my mother away!"

Zhao Yuhao stood at the door, stopped Zhao Yuhang, and responded calmly and firmly: "Auntie has committed such a heinous crime. The country has its own laws and the family has its own rules. Since she violated the family rules, she should be punished."

Zhao Yuhang was so angry that he was about to explode. Reasoning was not going to work, so he had to resort to tough measures.

"Are you really forcing me to do it?" His eyes widened with anger, and he clenched his fists, ready to confront Zhao Yuhao.

At this moment, Xue Jinhua appeared in time to prevent the situation from getting worse. She walked up quickly, facing Zhao Yuhang, and said in a serious tone: "Second brother, do you also want to go to jail today?"

When Zhao Yuhao saw that it was Xue Jinhua coming over, his expression eased a little, and he hurriedly called out respectfully, "Sister-in-law."

After Xue Jinhua politely returned the gift, Zhao Yuhang said coldly: "Sister-in-law, you came at the right time. Zhao Yuhao didn't let me take my mother back."

Hearing this, Xue Jinhua did not rush to express her opinion, but looked at Zhao Yuhang and asked, "Second brother, does your sister-in-law know that you are here?"

When Zhao Yuhang heard this, his face turned slightly red, but he still stiffened his neck and replied, "Your sister-in-law is not feeling well, so I came here alone."

Xue Jinhua understood clearly that Jiang was now in her advanced stage of pregnancy and was indeed not suitable for work. But she also knew very well that Jiang did not come for this reason, but simply did not want Wang to go back.

Thinking of this, she said, "Since the chief is looking for mother, why don't we first listen to what he wants to say to mother."

Zhao Yuhang couldn't help but frown when he heard this, but then he thought, if he didn't explain things clearly, he might not be able to take his mother away.

Seeing that he remained silent, Xue Jinhua turned to Zhao Yuhao and asked, "Where is the patriarch now?"

"At the ancestral hall."

"Please lead the way."

The Zhao family's ancestral hall is like a carefully carved small courtyard, and it is separated from the Zhao family's courtyard by only a wall.

Back then, the Zhao family had not yet been stripped of their titles, and all members of the Zhao family obeyed the Zhao family's orders.

Rather than saying that the Zhao family ancestral hall was built for the Zhao family, it would be better to say that it was built specifically for the Zhao family.

After the Zhao family fell into decline, the patriarch ordered people to lock the gate to the courtyard, leaving only one door for people to enter and exit.

The ancestral hall was solemn and dignified. It was March now, with lush grass and singing birds, but when one stepped into the yard, one was greeted by a gloomy atmosphere.

Millions of Zhao family ancestors are enshrined here, and even if the sun is shining, it is difficult to dispel the bone-chilling cold.

In the ancestral hall, the patriarch stood aside while Wang knelt on the ground.

When Zhao Yuhang saw this, he rushed over and asked, "Mom, are you okay?"

Wang was extremely frightened. When she saw her son coming, she burst into tears.

"Son, this place is very gloomy. I want to go home."

Although he was only detained in the cell for one night, after all, Wang had lived a life of luxury over the years, so how could she endure such suffering?

The food was cold and smelled bad.

The nights in the cell were extremely cold, making people feel as if they were in an ice cellar, with the biting cold wind penetrating through the thin bedding into their bones.

What’s worse, these quilts are hard and thin and simply don’t provide enough warmth and comfort.

However, this is not the most annoying thing. In the middle of the night, the mice begin to move, making sharp and shrill noises, which are very annoying.

When she opened her eyes, a fat rat appeared in front of her. It showed no fear at all. Instead, it stared at her with its round little eyes, as if it regarded her as a delicious delicacy. She was scared to death.

She originally thought that after returning home, she could enjoy the long-lost comfort and ease, such as taking a hot bath, enjoying delicious food, and then having a good sleep, but she did not expect that what was waiting for her was to be taken to the family ancestral hall and forced to kneel.

At this moment, she felt unwell all over and just wanted to escape from this place as soon as possible.

Zhao Yuhang looked up at the patriarch with a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes: "Patriarch, if there is nothing else, I will take my mother home." His tone was firm and decisive.

However, the patriarch shook his head, his voice carrying a sense of majesty and oppression: "I'm afraid she can't leave today."

Zhao Yuhang was stunned, his eyes widened, and he looked at the patriarch in disbelief. Seeing this, the patriarch slowly added: "Not only today, don't even think about leaving in the future."
