The sky was dark and windy and windy, until I walked out of the house, there were some shiny things on the ground, I looked carefully, it turned out that it was snowing, the snowflakes were spinning in the air, the howling wind passed, the snowflakes were swept into the air, and fluttered again Falling.

Tian Dazhuang's body will no longer hurt, and he began to think about running away from the bottom of his heart, but the pain just now left him with lingering fears.

Wang Quan kicked Tian Dazhuang severely, and said in a vicious voice, "Hurry up, don't even think about running away."

Yun Yao didn't turn her head back, and said coldly: "Let him run, unless you find Doctor Guo or the Imperial Physician, no one in the world can cure your poison."

Tian Dazhuang immediately drooped his head. For the sake of his own life, he should not play tricks. Anyway, he has completed the things arranged by the old lady, and he has paid both money and goods.

The three of them were walking in the alley, and from time to time there were voices of people and dogs barking from the wall.

Back at Wen's house, Cook Li, Qian Hehua and others waited anxiously at the back door. Seeing them coming back, she was relieved. Seeing Tian Dazhuang, Qian Hehua wanted to step forward and kick him a few times.

Wang Quan wrote down what Tian Dazhuang did and asked Tian Dazhuang to press his fingerprints.

It's almost midnight, and after Yunyao came back, she read in the study for a while, the Wen family's books were not complete, there was only one history book and other miscellaneous studies, and there were no books about the Great Wei dynasty that she wanted to know, Not to mention the dignitaries in the capital.

Wang Quan knocked on the door and entered, and Yun Yao was not surprised to see him, "Uncle Wang, why haven't you slept yet?"

"Miss, shall we go to Mrs. Wang tomorrow, pry open her mouth, and then confront Mrs. Pei?" what to do?At most, the Pei family will pay some money, even if the reputation is restored, but it will soon fall into another predicament. This world is so harsh on women.

Yun Yao shook her head: "Uncle Wang, Mrs. Pei will definitely not apologize and admit her mistake, because it involves Pei Qian's future. If this matter becomes serious, it might cancel Pei Qian's fame, and now Pei Qian is engaged to Duke Qi's mansion , then the Duke of Qi will come forward in the end, and the best result we can get is that the Pei family will pay us a sum of money, and the worst result is that our Wen family will be silenced."

Wang Quan opened his mouth, suddenly at a loss, his eyes dimmed instantly, "Are we just admitting it like this?"

Yun Yao shook her head, and said no more, "Uncle Wang, let's talk about it tomorrow." Now all this is speculation, she just wants to pry Mrs. Wang's mouth open, and ask who is involved in it, and she wants to know the most Was it Pei Qian's envoy or Mrs. Pei alone?Or someone else got involved too.

The snow fell heavily during the night and did not stop until dawn.

Yun Yao arranged some homework for Wen Wenxuan to practice calligraphy, and Ming Xuan obediently learned and practiced calligraphy in the study, and was about to leave with Wang Quan when the door of Wen's house was knocked.

Before the door was opened, Yun Yao's expression sank when she heard the yelling from outside.

"Mingxuan, no matter what happens, don't come out!" She had forgotten that her sister-in-law, Mrs. Wen, and Wen Tianhua had already been buried, so she dared to show up, right?

At first, the Wang family was coaxed by his father and brother to run away with the money. In the past few days, the Wen family was taboo for the funeral and did not come to the house to make a scene. There are other shops and Zhuangzi, and now they are running back to make trouble. Wang is thinking that she will take her son with her. With her son in hand, all the wealth of the Wen family belongs to her.

Yun Yao didn't bother to reason with the Wang family, so she directly picked up a hoe from behind the door, opened the door and went down with the hoe, scaring the three of Wang's father and brother back several steps outside the door.

It is very reasonable to say that the wicked will be punished by the wicked. Yunyao is not a wicked person, but facing this kind of nonsense and unreasonable people, she reluctantly becomes a wicked person.

Wang and his father and brother may not have thought that the weak woman they thought was so strong, the three of them didn't take advantage of it, so they had to go back in despair.

However, Yunyao still gave orders to Cook Li and the others, if the Wang family came again, just call them out, don't show mercy.

As for Wenmingxuan, Yunyao turned around and explained to him: "Mingxuan, aunt has more important things to do now, and I don't have time to chat with your mother and uncle. If your mother wants to come back, aunt will not stop her, but The Wang family should not even think about entering Wen's house. When you see your mother in the future, you are not allowed to go with her, otherwise Auntie is afraid to redeem you with the only remaining property of Wen's family. As you have seen, our family is in a difficult time now. You don't have much money, so your mother can't afford to squander it, so you must listen to my aunt this time, you can't be bewitched by your mother, you know?"

Wen Wenxuan puffed his cheeks and nodded. He is seven years old, and he has a certain ability to distinguish after seeing what happened at home. Although he also misses his mother, she only thinks about the Wang family, and his surname is Wen.

"Auntie, Mingxuan understands, Mingxuan will be obedient."

The little guy used to be very innocent and cute, but unfortunately, the changes in his family made the little guy cautious, and he witnessed his mother leaving with his grandfather, uncle and others at his father's funeral. Now he can't believe it at all. mother.

Walking out of Wen's house, the snow outside was much lighter, but the wind was still biting.

Wang Quan and the coachman were sitting outside in the carriage, while Yun Yao was sitting in the car. The temperature was even lower today. Although after two days, some internal heat had been generated in her body during the practice, but it was not enough to dispel the cold. She still felt cold.

Mrs. Wang's house is in a small alley two streets away from Pei's house. The whole alley is full of people like Mrs. Wang's family. They all work for rich people to make a living.

Mrs. Wang has two sons and a daughter. The daughter is married and has no family separation. The two sons are working in other people's homes. At this time, only Mrs. Wang's two daughters-in-law and a few grandchildren are in the Wang family.

The two daughters-in-law of the Wang family still knew Yunyao, and when they saw Yunyao, their expressions immediately changed.

With a solemn expression, Yunyao entered the courtyard, a square courtyard. She sized it up and said to the two daughters-in-law of the Wang family, "Go and call your mother-in-law back, some things should be settled."

The young daughter-in-law of the Wang family looked flustered, and immediately ran outside when she heard this.

Yun Yao walked towards the main hall in the middle, Wang Quan and the coachman sat casually on the stools inside the threshold of the main hall, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Wang family looked even more nervous, she didn't know whether to enter or not.

Wang's daughter-in-law went to Pei's house to find her mother-in-law Wang, who was indeed at Pei's house, and she was talking with Mrs. Pei, holding the soles of her shoes.The concierge of Pei's house informed the inside, but Wang's daughter-in-law did not dare to report Yunyao's arrival, she only said that her son was sick. When Mrs. Wang heard this, she was really anxious. Mrs. Pei is a kind old lady at this time, and she also rewarded Yunyao. I paid two taels of silver to Mrs. Wang, and asked her to go home and find a good doctor for her grandson, so that he could recover as soon as possible.

Mrs. Wang really thought that her grandson was sick, so she ran out of the inner courtyard in a hurry, with a lot of snowflakes on her body and head. It was only when she was a certain distance away from Pei's house that Wang Xiaoer's wife explained the real reason. Mrs. Wang's expression Serene, but a little unconcerned, there is no one in the Wen family, just an abandoned woman and a child, what can she do?What's more, there is a big backer of the Duke of Qi's mansion behind the Pei family. She is not afraid to tell the Wen family the truth. If she has the ability, she will fight against the Duke of Qi's mansion.

But be careful when sailing for thousands of years, when Mrs. Wang returned to her home, her expression immediately turned into a bitter face, as if she was hesitant to step forward and feel ashamed of her former wife.

When Mrs. Wang entered the main hall, she knelt down on Yunyao's face: "Ma'am, I'm sorry for you, but I can't help you either. The old lady is just a servant."

Yun Yao glanced at Wang Quan, Wang Quan had brought a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, he directly put the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table in the room, he wanted to write down what Mrs. Wang did, and later asked Mrs. Wang to sign, draw or print .

Mrs. Wang's heart sank, and she thought quickly. Her narration must set aside her own responsibility.

"It's really self-conscious. You recruited yourself before I asked." Yun Yao said with a half-smile, her gaze was always on Mrs. Wang's face.

"Now I'll ask you to answer." Yunyao put away the smile on her face, let go of her aura, and threw all her strength at Mrs. Wang, who suddenly felt her heart pounding.

"Is it the envoy of Pei Qian who framed me?"

"No, no, the master doesn't know." Mrs. Wang just felt a little dizzy, and blurted out these words.

Yun Yao pursed her lips and smiled: "Then who is the instigator?" Her eyes gradually changed from gentle to sharp, and Mrs. Wang dared not look at her, she prostrated herself on the ground and said, "It is the third lady of Duke Qi's mansion who is instigating the old lady." made."

Yunyao was greatly surprised, her eyes became extremely cold, under Yunyao's high pressure, Mrs. Wang said everything that should be said and should not be said, without Yunyao asking again, she poured everything like beans in a bamboo tube Out.

Wang Quan held back his anger, but he still patiently wrote down what Mrs. Wang said.

Mrs. Wang fell to the ground, panicked in her heart, why did she tell everything?She hadn't planned it that way before.

"Did my elder brother's death be caused by the third lady of Duke Qi's mansion?" Yun Yao frowned, thinking about the strangeness of this matter.

It turned out that it wasn't that Pei Qian wanted to abandon his poor wife, but that the noble daughter of the Duke of Qi's mansion fell in love with Pei Qian, and joined forces with Mrs. Pei to plot against Wen Huiniang. But since Miss Yang and Mrs. Pei have known each other for half a year, why? Do you have to wait until Pei Qian is elected before acting?If she thought of a way to make Wen Huiniang die in an accident, it would be so troublesome.

Mrs. Wang looked confused and shook her head again and again: "The old lady doesn't know now. The person who contacted me is Nanny Song who is next to the county magistrate's wife."

There is also a county magistrate's wife, no wonder Master Wen was so troubled by going to the Yamen.

"Wang Po, you are a smart person. You should know that the best keeper in this world is a dead person. My Wen family is just a small businessman. It is said that every day should not be done, and the land is not working. You think I can't get along with the Duke of Qi Such a wealthy family competes against each other, so you told me the truth without fear. Naturally, I won’t just let this matter go, and I don’t want your lives, but the Duke of Qi’s mansion may not be the case, you Wang family can do it for themselves.”

Yun Yao sneered: "Of course, you can also tell the county magistrate's wife to think of a crime to confiscate our Wen family and exterminate the family. I think the county magistrate's wife should bear the brunt of you, anyway, I am barefoot Not afraid of wearing shoes."

Mrs. Wang and her two daughters-in-law were so frightened that they sat on the cold ground at a loss. They couldn't afford to gamble. If she told the county government to look for Nanny Song now, I'm afraid that Nanny Song would take her away as soon as she finished her report. She grabs it.

Wang Quan dried the ink on the paper, asked Mrs. Wang to print her fingerprints, and persuaded Mrs. Wang, "Mr. Wang, I have a trick for you. Pack up your things and run for your life, otherwise those who are waiting for you will be silenced."

"Or, come with us, otherwise the sky net will be restored, and you will not be able to escape the government's pursuit." Yun Yao walked out as she spoke, looking at the heavy snowfall outside again, "If you want to save your life, the life of your son and grandson, Come find me."

The courtyard was quiet, leaving only the wind blowing from the courtyard, the door was blown open with a thud, and there was a bang, which scared the three of them back to their senses.The two daughters-in-law of the Wang family were already crying and shaking their mother-in-law's arms, "Mother, what should I do? What should I do?" It doesn't matter if they are dead, but the sons are still young.

"I'll tell the old lady to go." Mrs. Wang got up and was about to go out, but was held back by her daughter-in-law. Silence." Since ancient times, those who have been cannon fodder are the ones who do things and spread the word in these dirty things.

Mrs. Wang cried and cried. After crying, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law discussed with each other, but they still didn't know what to do.When Mrs. Wang's two sons came back, Wang Da and Wang Er knew that their mother was actually involved in such a troublesome matter, and they immediately frowned.

"Mother, as long as Miss Wen pursues this matter, after being known by Duke Qi and the Pei family, we can't escape being silenced, because this is the most confidential way, and the dead will not tell the truth. And these big families care about reputation the most, Mr. Pei I have to take the imperial examination next year, if it is exposed by the Wen family, I am afraid that Master Pei’s fame will be wiped out.” Wang Da is a big man with a sloppy face, but he is just tall, in fact, he is not very powerful, but A little honest.

Wang Er nodded in agreement, the family deliberated, and finally Wang Da made a decision: "Mother, let's go to Miss Wen, compared to Duke Qi, Pei's family, and the wife of the county magistrate wanting our lives, Miss Wen will find ways to kill us." save our lives."

After Yunyao, Wang Quan, and the coachman returned to Wen's house, they didn't go out for a day. Mrs. Wang's family is not a fool. If they want to save their lives, they have to stand on the same line with her, otherwise she will make a little movement, Duke Qi In order to avoid future troubles, the mansion will definitely kill Mrs. Wang's family.

When Wang Quan came back from Wang's house, he spent the whole day looking for contacts to investigate the affairs of the county magistrate's wife and Nanny Song beside him.

"Miss, the magistrate of Yu's wife is surnamed Zhong. She is over [-] years old. The magistrate of Yu County is not from the capital, nor from Huadan County, but from the Jiangnan side. Zhong's father is a fifth-rank doctor of the Ministry of War in the capital. Ms. Zhong is the concubine daughter of Zhong Langzhong. In the past, Yu County magistrate was admitted as a Jinshi, and her ranking was not high. After marrying Zhong, her official career was not smooth. I came to our county to be the county magistrate. Although it is a mediocre job, it can be regarded as a promotion in disguise. After all, Huadan County is very close to the capital. Yu County magistrate has not done anything in Huadan County in the past three years. The thing is not too much exploitation of merchants and people, but he still has a preference, and he obviously favors some merchants in Huadan County who give heavy gifts." Wang Quan obviously knows Yu County magistrate better, and all the things he said are related to Yu County Regarding the order, Mrs. Yu's Zhong family is after the Yu county magistrate.

Yun Yao listened carefully and analyzed carefully. Zhong's father, Zhong Langzhong, was only a fifth-rank doctor, not a very big official. Now he just doesn't know how powerful the Zhong family is in the capital, is it a big family?The nuns around the noble lady from a big family are all family-born children, and the family-born children have a stronger collective concept. Facing the torture of outsiders to extract confessions, many servants will not confess their masters, and they may even die to save their masters. After death, her master will treat her family well.
