Translator: Dragon Boat Translation | Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Bai Cha hummed softly.
He had already grasped his sword.
Jianing glanced at him, “Do you want to go to Sanzhou Town?”
Bai Cha did not say anything.
Of course, he wanted to go if he could, but his family was equally important.
Sister-in-law and Yao were the people that Big Brother cared about the most.
They could make contributions anytime.
Jianing glanced at Bai Cha.
To be honest, she was quite envious of him.
From a servant to the Second Master of the Marquis’s Manor. His glory was truly glorious. Moreover, if he performed meritorious deeds in the future, he would be bestowed with a good title.
She couldn’t help but have some thoughts.
She also wondered if she would have the chance to do the same…
Therefore, she was more enthusiastic than anyone else this time.
Who would want to live in darkness when they had the chance to stand under
the sun?
“Be on guard!” Li Zhao shouted from outside.
Immediately after, there was the sound of swords clashing against each other.
Bai Cha held his sword and walked out of the carriage.
Jianing blinked her eyes before following him out.
There were about twenty masked men in black. They had thought that they had the Marchioness in the bag, but who knew that the mantis was stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind?
Everyone from the Marquisdom was highly skilled in martial arts. Even the little girl’s moves were ruthless and fast.
Every move she made was deadly.
Even Han Chi, Li Zhao, and the others were shocked, let alone the assassins in
black.
Many men could not compare to this ruthlessness.
Zeng Qin’er was especially ruthless. One stab was enough to kill her opponent.
Blood splattered on her face, but she did not feel much or feel much fear.
Instead, it only excited her more.
Li Zhao narrowed his eyes. After thinking for a moment, he walked to Zeng
Qin’er’s side.
Zeng Qin’er glanced at him and ignored him. She continued to attack and stayed away from Li Zhao.
For some reason, Li Zhao felt that he was being despised.
The assassin was also dumbfounded.
This was completely different from the information they had received.
Didn’t that guy say that the family’s foundation was shallow and that there were no useful people? Then what was going on with these people?
The killers were either dead or crippled and tied up with ropes.
Zeng Qin’er stood at the side and stuck out her tongue to lick the curved blade.
It was a little salty and tasted a little tangy.
Li Zhao walked over again, “Qin’er…”
“?” Zeng Qin’er frowned and asked in confusion, “Young Master Li, is something up?”
There were only a few people who called her Qin er.
She felt that Young Master Li was not that close to her.
Could it be that he wanted to recruit her to work for him?
Then she wouldn’t go.
She was only loyal to Madam in this life.
Zeng Qin’er instantly became alert and moved further away from Li Zhao.
Li Zhao touched his nose, “You were very powerful.”
Zeng Qin’er thought to herself, Indeed.
This person was the eldest young mistress’s brother, so she couldn’t fall out with him.
She didn’t want to make things difficult for the Eldest Young Master.
After saying a few humble words, she immediately walked away.
Li Zhao stood where he was, puzzled.
Did he say something wrong?
The Feng family had also arrived with their officers.
They did this in broad daylight. Someone actually dared to act against the women from the Marquis of Manning’s residence. These people were simply courting death.
At the same time, a group of officials swarmed into the small courtyard that Han Laoshi had sneaked into. Before the people inside could send out the news, they were caught.
There was also a woman among them.
If Han Qiao was here, she would recognize that this woman was Li Niang, who had once pestered Heng Yi.
Li Niang was extremely flustered, her entire body trembled.
There was only one thought in her mind. It was over.
She would never have a chance to turn things around again.
When Han Laoshi was thrown into the prison and saw Li Niang and the others, he woke up, “Li Niang.”
He crawled towards her.
When Li Niang saw his stupid face, she was furious, “You idiot, it’s all your fault!”
Han Laoshi must have been exposed.
Otherwise, how could they have been caught in one fell swoop?
The others thought the same, so Han Laoshi was beaten up again.
The prison guards didn’t care about this at all. They even told them to fight well. If they fought well, they would have food to eat today.
Because of this, Han Laoshi was beaten to death.
Even if he died, he would not be able to rest in peace. He would be directly thrown into a mass grave.
Some bailiffs went to Xishan Village to publicize the evil deeds that Han Laoshi had done. Even Han Laoshi’s family would be implicated.
However, before they went over, the officers from the government office visited the Heng Manor to see Han Qiao, asking if Han Laoshi’s family should be severely punished.
“Interrogate Li Niang first and see what she has to say.”
Most of the people in Xishan Village were honest. They had faced the yellow soil and faced the sky their entire lives. If they really caused a commotion, if Han Laoshi’s wife and children were truly guilty, they deserved it. However, if they were innocent…
Li Niang, that woman, had no morals and no kindness. She had hooked up with Han Laoshi and was not a good person.
“Yes.”
Li Niang was indeed cheap.
Not only did she sleep with Han Laoshi and make him abandon his wife and children to work for her, but she also slept with a few local ruffians to run errands for her.
She even colluded with fleeing bandits.
As well as the remaining bandits who had escaped.
Such a dirty woman had actually won over those men.
When Han Qiao heard this, she felt disgusted.
“As expected, they are a bunch of rotten people.
In the end, Han Qiao still showed mercy. With regard to Han Laoshi’s death, she only asked Han Dacheng and the others to return to Xishan Village. Firstly, they could visit their family. Secondly, they wanted to tell Han Laoshi’s family about this matter.
They could not be held accountable for the evil deeds that Han Laoshi had committed, but they could not be ignorant.
Han Dacheng and the others did not really want to go back. After all, they had just met their family.
Moreover, because of the matter with his grandparents, Han Dacheng had some opinions about his family.
In the end, it was Dong Lai who made the trip personally.
Han Qiao promised him that when he returned from his errand, he could marry Pucao.
Dong Lai had a silly smile on his face when he heard that. Before he left, he looked at the Pucao and reluctantly left the manor.
Pucao mustered her courage and grabbed his hand. Then stuffed a purse into his hand and kissed him before running away.
“Ohoho.”
The gatekeeper laughed at the people who followed him.
Dong Lai’s face was flushed red, and he was also embarrassed, but his heart was filled with sweet happiness.
“Don’t laugh, don’t laugh,” He waved his hand, “What are you laughing at? Let’s go, let’s go.”
He hurriedly got into the carriage because he did not want to delay a moment longer.
The earlier they set off, the earlier they returned.
This time, Han Qiao had prepared some things for her grandparents. It would be even better if she could bring them over herself.
After Dong Lai left, the manor seemed to have quieted down again.
Han Qiao had a lot of things to do.
She wanted to go out of the city to look at the place and move the people there. However, in order to make it easier for them to get to and from work, they couldn’t live too far away.
Not to mention other things, each person had to have a room. That way, some young couples and their siblings could also stay there for a while.
It was equivalent to a dormitory.
Lan Cheng had also rushed back from overseas to help Han Qiao manage the affairs here.
“Greetings, Madam.”
“You must have worked hard on your journey. Go and rest first. We’ll talk again tomorrow.”
Wen Yu wanted to go to Sanzhou Town, so Han Qiao thought about it and wrote a letter to Heng Yi.
She told him to look on the bright side and not blame himself. It wasn’t his fault.
She told him that she named the child Heng Duofu, the fourth young mistress of the marquis’ family..
