After Her Divorce, She Escaped With A Strong Man To Farm
Chapter 64 - 64 The Little Girl's Wildness Is Aroused64 The Little Girl’s Wildness Is Aroused
Ji Shuisheng brought Ji Xiaoying to the backyard to help with the crackdown. The moment they entered the back hall, they saw Guo Xiang holding onto the door frame and shouting with all his might, “Put those things down. Put them down! Who are you? I’m going to have my uncle tear you all into pieces.”
In the courtyard, Li Wu was directing the servants of the Guo residence to move things into the courtyard. He had the key to the accountant’s room in his hand, but he did not dare to go to the accountant’s room because he was afraid that these people would escape again.
Seeing Ji Shuisheng return, Li Wu came over happily and bowed to Ji Shuisheng.
“Thank you, Mr. Ji. I’ll have to trouble you to help me guard the courtyard and watch them move things.”
“Alright,” he said.
Ji Shuisheng agreed in a deep voice. He glared at Guo Xiang, who was holding the door frame. ‘How dare he have any ideas about Xiaoying and Su Qing?’
Li Wu saw the fierce gaze in Ji Shuisheng’s eyes and followed his gaze to find Guo Xiang. He smiled and said to Ji Shuisheng, “Don’t kill him, we still need to keep him alive for questioning!”
This meant he was silently allowing Ji Shuisheng to beat up Guo Xiang to avenge his sister. Ji Shuisheng nodded.
“Alright,” he said.
Ji Xiaoying looked at her brother excitedly. ‘Is he going to take care of that bastard?’ She wanted to join him.
Ji Xiaoying was looking for something in the courtyard and immediately saw the leather whip that Guo Xiang had used to teach the servant a lesson. She went over to take the whip and naughtily said to her older brother, “Brother, I’m going to beat him up.”
“Alright,” he said.
Ji Shuisheng looked at his sister dotingly.
“I’ll beat him up first, then you can continue.”
There was one more thing he didn’t say: “In case he hurts you!”
Ji Xiaoying smiled and nodded, waiting for her brother to beat Guo Xiang into a pulp before she made her move.
Guo Xiang felt a wave of murderous intent and his scalp went numb. He raised his head and looked at the fierce-looking Ji Shuisheng. He was so scared that he stumbled backward.
“You …” What are you doing?”
Ji Shuisheng didn’t waste his breath any further and walked step by step towards Guo Xiang with a sense of oppression. He reached out and grabbed his hair, picked him up from the ground, and threw him into the courtyard.
When the servants saw that their young master was thrown to the ground by Ji Shuisheng and could not get up, they were so frightened that they did not even dare to breathe. They lowered their heads and listened obediently, no one daring to escape.
Ji Shuisheng controlled the strength of his punches and kicks. Guo Xiang was in so much pain that he wished he was dead, but he was still alive. Guo Xiang cried for his parents as he rolled on the ground. He was being chased and beaten by Ji Shuisheng like a dog. He obviously wasn’t as arrogant as before.
Ji Shuisheng beat him until his limbs were so weak that he could no longer get up before he handed him over to his little sister.
“Go on!”
“Alright.”
Ji Xiaoying had been waiting for a long time. When she saw her brother taking care of Guo Xiang, she excitedly waved her small fists as if she was also beating up that bastard.
Hearing her big brother’s order, the little girl took the whip and went over. She swung the whip around and hit Guo Xiang’s body.
“Blame yourself for bullying others and being inhumane! I’ll beat you to death, you dog!”
Ji Xiaoying’s voice sounded like the singing of an oriole. She was clearly scolding someone, but it was so melodious to the ear. Su Qing had not even entered the backyard when she heard Xiaoying’s scolding. A smile appeared on her cold face.
Very good, the little girl’s wild nature was aroused. This was the way to protect herself.
Su Qing strode into the courtyard and saw Xiaoying waving her whip around, chasing Guo Xiang all over the courtyard. Guo Xiang’s body rolled back and forth like a big centipede, and he screamed in pain.
Ji Xiaoying was so tired that she was panting, but she did not stop. She raised the whip and chased after Guo Xiang. Guo Xiang was in extreme pain. When he saw the whip, his entire body trembled. In order to avoid physical pain, he knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and cried.
“Yes, I was inhumane. Young lady, stop hitting me. I’m dirtying your hands.”
When Ji Shuisheng saw Su Qing coming, he immediately turned his face away as he was still angry with her.
Su Qing laughed and walked to his side. She wanted to see how long he could hold it in.
As soon as Su Qing walked over, Ji Shuisheng recalled the scene of her seeing him naked last night. His face was burning, but fortunately, his skin was dark, so his flushed cheeks could not be seen. He didn’t even dare to look Su Qing in the eyes, and he had long forgotten his anger towards her.
Li Wu searched the records in the accountant’s room and then went into the inner hall to search. The problem now was that the money recorded in the inner account did not match with what Guo gang had told him.
The internal account recorded a total of 580,000 tales of silver, but Guo Gang only gave him 50,000 taels. The difference was huge.
The silver notes, gold bars, and silver taels found in the accountant’s room matched the amount that Guo Gang had told him. The problem now was where did the remaining 500,000 taels of silver go?
If they didn’t find the money, there would be no evidence, and Guo Gang’s corruption case couldn’t be reported.
Master Qin had interrogated the accountant and butler alone to see if there were any secret passages or storerooms in the back residence that could hide the silver.
The two of them couldn’t say anything, and they didn’t even know that the silver was in the Guo estate? Or had they already been transported out?
In order to save his own life, Guo Gang gritted his teeth and refused to explain no matter how much he was tortured. He was clear about the laws of the Great Xia Kingdom. Those who committed corruption of more than 100,000 taels of silver had to be dismissed and beheaded.
Li Wu and his men rummaged through the inner residence and found many antiques, paintings, ruyi scepters, jewelry, and all kinds of gold jewelry, but they still couldn’t find any silver.
He glanced at Guo Xiang, who was lying on the ground, struggling to survive, and walked over. Guo Xiang thought that he was going to hit him again, so he held his head and shouted for help.
“Don’t hit me anymore, I’ll lose my life if you do.”
“Tell me where the silver is and I’ll spare your life.”
Li Wu looked down at Guo Xiang from above. This kind of person who was afraid of death would easily tell the truth.
Although Guo Xiang was a rich man’s son and only knew how to eat, drink, womanize, and gamble, he also knew that embezzling official money was a serious matter. He clenched his teeth and shook his head while saying, “I don’t know!”
Li Wu took the whip from Ji Xiaoying’s hands and looked at Guo Xiang with a dark gaze.
“I’ll give you one more chance. Will you tell me?”
“I really don’t know. It’s useless even if you beat me to death. My father isn’t corrupt. Those are money our family earned from our business.”
Guo Xiang sobbed and looked scared, but he still refused to tell the truth.
Li Wu whipped him again. A man’s strength was definitely greater than Xiaoying’s, so Guo Xiang was rolling on the ground, crying so hard that his tone changed.
“I don’t know… Ah, it hurts so much.”
Guo Xiang was beaten unconscious. Li Wu ordered people to pour cold water on him to wake him up, but when he woke up, he still gritted his teeth and refused to say anything.
Su Qing had been watching the show for a long time. She had been well treated by Godfather Qin these past two days, so she decided to do him a small favor!
Su Qing walked over and took out a black pill from her pocket. She squatted in front of Guo Xiang, who was covered in mud and blood. Her cold voice was slow, but the words she said made their scalps go numb.
“Do you want to experience the feeling of being bitten by ants and having your bones break?”
“Miss, please spare me. I was wrong. I’m not human. Just treat me as an insignificant small fry and let me go!”
Guo Xiang weakly begged Su Qing for mercy. He had resisted until now, so he couldn’t say anything no matter what. His father had said that it would be a crime of house arrest.
“Alright, since you’re so stubborn, I’ll fulfill your wish.”
Su Qing’s lips curled into a cruel smile. She pinched Guo Xiang’s cheek with one hand and fed the pill to him amid his frightened gaze.
