Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Old Madam Wang endured the pain and watched the constable take Wang

Zheng away. She turned to look at Madam Lin and said, “Follow me.”

Madam Lin did not dare to disobey and could only lower her head and follow them to the backyard. When they reached the backyard, Old Madam Wang looked at Madam Lin and asked, “Tell me, what happened?”

Madam Lin wished she could slap herself. Why was she so useless as to say what she was thinking? “I, I… I think the magistrate’s wife looks very similar to Jinniang. The magistrate’s wife always targets us. I suspect that she’s

Jinniang’s daughter. Now, she’s back to take revenge on me and Master.”

Old Madam Wang walked up to her and looked at her. “Jinniang was separated because of trouble back then. It wasn’t you who harmed her. Besides, our Wang family didn’t do anything to let her down. Why should she take revenge on us?”

Madam Lin recalled that Granny Han had said that she had pushed Jinniang down the mountain stream when she was unprepared. Even if she had been saved, she would not have thought that it was Nanny who had pushed her down. She slowly regained her composure. “Originally, Jinniang was the one who was engaged to Master, but in the end, I was the one who married Master.

She must have felt that Master and I had abandoned her.”

Old Madam Wang looked at her and sighed. “There was nothing she could do. At that time, there were refugees everywhere. She should have understood that even if she had found her way back then, she wouldn’t have been able to enter the Wang family. ”

When Madam Lin heard Old Madam Wang’s words, she heaved a long sigh of relief. That was right! Even if they had found her back then, it was impossible for her to marry into the Wang family. She pretended to blame herself and said, “It’s all my fault. I knew that she had a stomach ache, but I still blamed her for making the carriage smelly. She ran out in a fit of anger and got lost.”

Old Madam Wang suddenly felt that Madam Lin was much more pleasing to the eye. She said amiably, “Since you think that the magistrate’s wife is Jinniang’s child, you’re her biological aunt. We can go to the magistrate’s family to apologize and find a chance to acknowledge this family. Zheng’er can also come back as soon as possible. I heard that they live on a farm outside the city. Hurry up and pack up. I’ll go to the storeroom to pack a few decent gifts. Then, we’ll set off for the farm outside the city.”

Seeing that Old Madam Wang had already said so, Madam Lin could only reply, “Yes, I’ll go now.”

When Madam Lin went out, she saw Granny Han looking for her anxiously. Madam Lin went up to her and told her what the old lady had said. “Nanny, what do you think we should do? She must have kidnapped Ah Yue. Now that she has captured Master, the old lady even asked me to acknowledge her as my relative. Why am I so miserable? No matter what, I have to be suppressed by her. Also, the last two times I saw her, I didn’t mention that I was related to her. Wouldn’t she question my actions now?”

Granny Han comforted her. “Madam, you have to think for Master and the two young masters. I remember that Madam put a gourd pendant on each of you. The colors and appearance of the pendants are exactly the same. Show her the pendant. She must have seen it from Jinniang. As long as she’s willing to acknowledge you, even if she slaps you in public, you have to swallow it. Let’s get over this first. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future.” When Madam Lin heard this, she gritted her teeth. “This is the only way now.”

Yingge listened to Granny Han’s words from behind and muttered to herself, “Madam has a cunning and shrewd person like Granny Han by her side. Why haven’t I seen her learn anything?”

Old Madam Wang chose a pile of gift boxes from the storeroom. She looked at the various jewelry, jade, and artifacts on the shelves and thought to herself that these treasures were all sent over by people when she was in the limelight in the past. At that time, who would have thought that there would be a day when the Wang family would give gifts to someone in Yunzhou!

After Wang Zheng was brought back to the government office, he could only admit in the face of the evidence that he had hired Su Xianyin to abduct Li Yu. He even argued, “I got someone to abduct the magistrate’s wife without thinking of harming her life. I just want to ask her if she was the one who was responsible for what happened to my family.”

Wu Tingxian did not expect Wang Zheng to say such a thing. He frowned and said, “You hired someone to kidnap a woman from her house and said that you didn’t want to harm her. Wang Zheng, is this how you comprehended the sage book? I know that your Miss argued with Madam Li in the shop, but Madam Li didn’t pursue the matter after that! Besides, Madam Li is a First-grade Madam Protector. What does anything that happens to your family have to do with her? How can you instigate that woman to do such a stupid thing?”

After Wu Tingxian finished speaking, he got someone to bring Wang Zheng away. He went to Zhou Jia’s room and reported the interrogation to Zhou Jia. He said to Zhou Jia, “Sir, what do you think is the appropriate verdict?”

Of course, Zhou Jia wanted to kill Wang Zheng to vent his anger, but his family was not injured at all. No matter what, he would only be sentenced to a few years. He said to Wu Tingxian, “Lord Wu, my wife was frightened and didn’t sleep last night. I was also furious.”

Wu Tingxian thought about how the Wang family had plundered a lot of silver in Yunzhou over the years and could not be sentenced for more than a few years. He might as well suggest something practical. “Wang Zheng is indeed despicable, but if he were to be sentenced, he can’t be sentenced for more than a few years. Next, it will depend on the Wang family’s sincerity. Anyway, he has just been arrested. Let’s lock him up for a few days and wait for Madam to calm down. We’ll find a day to sentence him.”

When Zhou Jia heard this, he also understood what Wu Tingxian meant. It was none other than to see how much money the Wang family could fork out to settle this matter. He nodded and said to Wu Tingxian with a bitter expression, “Lord Wu, to be honest, if I don’t let him suffer a little, it won’t be easy for me to explain to my wife…”

“Yes, we have to lock him up for a few days and make him suffer.” Wu Tingxian was silent. He thought to himself that Lord Zhou should not keep talking about how afraid he was of his wife. Did he still want respect?

After Ji Xiang told the children about Mu Sanniang tricking children with candy, he reminded them again before letting them go out to cut grass and play.

After Mr. Wen invited Priest Zhang from the neighboring village to help with the ritual, he hung a peach talisman on the door before leaving.

At midnight, Old Madam Wang and Madam Lin brought Granny Tang and Granny Han to the manor. Butler Wang got out of the car and saw the children carrying grass and fish baskets into the manor. He went forward and asked, “Child, is this Lord Zhou’s manor?”

Shui Sheng looked at him warily. “Yes. Who are you looking for?”

Butler Wang handed over the visiting card and said, “My Old Madam and

Madam are here to visit Madam Li. Please help send them in.”

Shui Sheng nodded and said to the children, “Hurry up and go back. Be careful of the kidnappers.” With that, he ran into the courtyard with the visiting card. Old Madam Wang and Madam Lin got out of the car. Little Loach looked back at Madam Lin and whispered to a child called Maizi, “Is this person Madam’s mother? She looks like our Madam!”

Maizi looked back at her. “Her eyes are so scary.” Little Yezi shouted from the front, “Little Loach, let’s go..”
