Chapter 48: No One Can Do It
It was precisely because no one could expose her that Hong Ying was so confident.
Even if the real Madam Zhou was here, it didn’t change a thing.
Li Yazhi was already tired. Angered and provoked by Hong Ying, she suddenly fainted.
Her body was too weak to support her any longer.
Liu Sanniang felt indignant at how shamless the criminal was.
She thought that as long as Wei Shilai came back with the real Madam Zhou, the matter would be resolved. However, she did not expect this to happen. Hong Ying had the power and could change her appearance at will. Her ability was super strong, and she was exactly the same as Li Yazhi.
They were now at a dead end and couldn’t find a way out.
Unless someone could unmask Hong Ying, but who had the ability to do so?
Everyone present had complicated expressions.
Hong Ying smiled. “Magistrate Wei, why aren’t you saying anything? Am I wrong?”
Wei Shilai looked at Hong Ying angrily and helplessly. He could not do anything to Hong Ying and could not expose her.
Old Master Zhou had already gotten someone to take Zhou Yanshu away. His expression was solemn as he looked at the unconscious Li Yazhi and then at Hong Ying. He said in a low voice, “Others can’t tell who is real or fake, but I believe that my grandson, whom you married, can tell the truth.”
Now, even Old Master Zhou had no choice. The only way was to send a letter to his grandson, Zhou Chengwen, who was in the capital, to ask for leave and return to his hometown. Outsiders could not be able to tell the difference, but Zhou Chengwen, the husband, should be able to.
Hong Ying smiled faintly. “That’s a good idea.”
Wei Shilai was shocked. Even at this time, the fake one was still so calm!
“Old Master, this… Madam…” Butler Zhou looked at the unconscious Li Yazhi and asked. “How should we settle her?”
Old Master Zhou frowned. “Put her in the west courtyard.”
After receiving the instruction, Butler Zhou immediately made the arrangements.
Old Master Zhou looked at Wei Shilai. “Magistrate Wei, this way please.”
Not only did this matter not get resolved, it became even more complicated.
Old Master Zhou wanted to call his son and grandson back, but he was afraid that none of them could tell who was the real one.
Wei Shilai was troubled. The only way now was to unmask the imposter, but where could he find a person who had the ability to do so?
They went to the front hall.
Old Master Zhou said to Wei Shilai, “Magistrate Wei, I’ll have to trouble you with this matter. Please find the imposter.”
Wei Shilai said solemnly, “Old Master Zhou, it’s my job and I’ll do my best!”
After leaving the Zhou Mansion, Wei Shilai felt like his legs weighed a thousand pound.
He personally sent Liu Sanniang home. On the way, he was silent.
After a long time, Wei Shilai sighed heavily.
Liu Sanniang couldn’t help but feel worried. She thought for a moment and said, “Sir, there are some capable people in Yong County. They might have a way.”
Imposter was after all an imposter.
Nothing was inexhaustible, and so was power.
Liu Sanniang had power, so she knew that there would be times when her power would run out.
Wei Shilai thanked her. “Miss Liu, thank you so much. I’ll think of a way.”
Liu Sanniang nodded. When they parted, Liu Sanniang said, “Sir, can you help me pass a message to Officer Zhou?”
Wei Shilai nodded. “Miss Liu, go ahead.”
Liu Sanniang recalled the black aura on Officer Zhou. She did not know what it was, but her intuition told her that it was not something good.
“Please tell him to come to me if he’s still willing to let me help him.”
Liu Sanniang told him seriously.
Wei Shilai nodded. “Don’t worry, Miss Liu. I’ll definitely convey your message.”
Lin Zheng had a complicated expression. “Miss Liu, can I ask you for help?”
Wei Shilai looked at Lin Zheng. He had been with him for several years. He looked cold and heartless, but everyone had secrets, and Lin Zheng was no exception.
Liu Sanniang nodded. “Yes.”
Lin Mu looked at Liu Sanniang and said, “Thank you.”
She smiled and turned to go home.
Wei Shilai was very busy. He had to send the children he rescued back, but before that, he had to ask a doctor to check on these children in case they were poisoned.
When Liu Sanniang returned home, it was already dark.
The moment she entered, Liu Erlang, who was eating, looked up and smiled. “Sanniang, you’re back. Have you eaten?”
Liu Dalang glanced at Liu Sanniang. “Come and eat.”
Mr. Liu took a sip of wine. “Erlang, go get a bowl for your sister.”
Madam Wei looked at Liu Sanniang worriedly. When she saw that her daughter was fine, she was relieved and did not say anything.
Liu Erlang had already stood up to get a bowl and chopsticks for Liu Sanniang.
Liu Sanniang sat down beside Liu Dalang and ate together.
After dinner, Liu Sanniang cleaned up the dishes.
Madam Wei pulled her hand. “Erlang will wash the dishes.”
Liu Erlang muttered. “I was the one who got a bowl and chopsticks for Sanniang. Let Dalang wash the dishes.”
Liu Dalang glared at him.
Liu Erlang stopped talking and quietly went to wash the dishes.
Madam Wei pulled Liu Sanniang to her room and closed the door. Madam Wei asked worriedly. “Is everything alright?”
Just as Liu Sanniang was about to explain to Madam Wei, she suddenly raised her hand. “Don’t say it. I don’t want to hear it.”
Seeing her daughter’s expression, Madam Wei wanted to cry!
She didn’t want her daughter to get involved in anything dangerous.
The ability that was given to her would eventually put her in great danger.
Madam Wei looked serious. “Sanniang, promise me that you won’t tell anyone about your power, okay?”
Liu Sanniang nodded. “Okay.”
Madam Wei sighed and gently hugged Liu Sanniang. “I just hope that you can find a good husband and live a happy life.”
