Farm widows have space, pick up a treasure on the way to escape

Chapter 1076: That Miss Cao is here for you

Peng Yuan listened carefully and kept nodding, her eyes already red.

It was her mother who should have been the one to enlighten her daughter's family, but what her mother did was unacceptable to her. Instead, she had to rely on her little sisters of the same age for comfort.

She didn't understand many of the things her mother had asked her to do since she was a child, but because it was not forced to happen to her, she didn't care much about it. It wasn't until now that some things were weighing her down that she couldn't breathe, and she didn't understand how heavy those thoughts were.

But when Jiang Jiuniang said this, she suddenly became enlightened.

Indeed, pregnancy is a matter between husband and wife, and it is women who need to be taken care of. Why should other women be sent to serve the husband?
It only seemed wrong before, but now it seems outrageous!
"I understand, Sister Jiu, you are right. We need to break out of the shackles, instead of being entangled in the shackles and dragging others in."

Jiang Jiuniang was completely relieved when she saw that her eyes became determined and there was a smile on her face.

Cao Shulan, who left in despair, remembered a serious problem on the way. She hurriedly called her maid to her side and asked, "I was in the other courtyard just now. Didn't I say anything inappropriate?"

"No, miss."

The maid's face was very calm, but she was a little worried in her heart. She was her personal maid, and she knew what she had done over the years. Looking at the people she had harmed, she was really worried that it would be her turn next. .

Just now in the other courtyard, Cao Shulan's words were obviously full of flaws, but she was just a maid and didn't dare to say anything.

"That's good, but even if you say it, it's okay. They obviously haven't thought about it in that way. Let's go back home."

Although she asked the maid, she actually felt that she had not said anything wrong, and even if there was any flaw, she was deliberately testing it.

She has always been confident in herself.

The maid had been with her for too long and knew her temperament very well, so she didn't dare to say anything.

"However, why did General Qin suddenly return to the military camp? Today's lying down is really a waste of effort!"

She tugged on her pigtails angrily. In order to come to see Qin Jian, she got up early in the morning to dress up, but she was in vain.

She thought that next time she would let the soldiers guarding the city tell her when they saw him coming back, so that she could see him as she wished.

However, she was not kept waiting this time. Qin Jian came back within a few days. This time, the soldiers guarding the city actually went to notify her immediately. She started dressing up after receiving the news, preparing to go to another courtyard to follow him. He had a chance encounter.

At this time, when Qin Jian returned to the other courtyard, he didn't even have time to hug his wife and kiss her carefully, so he couldn't wait to go find Lu Baichuan and his wife and lay out everything he had found.

"Good guy, this old guy Cao Zheng has given me a lot of surprises! He has done a lot of bad things over the years!"

Qin Jian sat down, poured himself a bowl of tea, and then talked about Cao Zheng's crimes.

Cao Zheng also did a lot of bad things in his previous tenure, but because there was someone above him, he was always covered up, and this person was good at disguise, so it was difficult for ordinary people to see his true face.

When Cao Zheng was transferred to Huizhou City, he packed up and left almost immediately, leaving a lot of mess for the current officials, which they still haven't sorted out.

In addition, not long after that person took office, a little boy secretly gave him a book, which recorded the evil things and evidence that Cao Zheng had done over the years.

The booklet is not very big, but it is filled to the brim.

According to that person, it was something left by Cao Zheng's former staff. Before his death, he asked the little boy to secretly hand it over one month after the new official took office.The newly appointed officials do not have as strong a background as Cao Zheng. Even if they have evidence, they will not dare to report it easily. They may be intercepted by Cao Zheng's people halfway, and then they will be the ones in trouble.

Originally, he planned to find a way to deliver it to the emperor when he had the opportunity to enter the capital. He did not expect that Qin Jian would investigate Cao Zheng's affairs, so he quickly handed this hot potato to Qin Jian.

It is written above about how Cao Zheng plundered people's wealth and wealth over the years, how he lied about tax returns, and what people were killed because of what happened. Anyway, it's all there.

What's even more amazing is that each case has the victim's specific information behind it, and you can know the truth with just one check.

"I'm not stupid. After I got this pamphlet, I went to verify the authenticity, and it turned out that it was all true!"

Qin Jian's voice was trembling when he spoke. With so much evidence in hand, not only Cao Zheng, but also the backers behind him could be peeled off.

After all, most of the gold and silver he collected went into the pockets of his patrons. If you follow the clues, you can easily be caught.

"Stable!"

Jiang Jiuniang read the pamphlet again and was also very happy, and then said: "This is probably because the staff member was killed, so he deliberately kept a hand. Cao Zheng must not have thought that he would have such a day!"

"That's not all! I also brought back an important witness, that little boy. He came with me, but I didn't bring him here for the time being and kept him in the military camp."

Because he wanted to create the illusion that he was coming from the military camp, he placed the little boy there by the way.

"That little boy is not an ordinary person. He used to serve the staff. But when the staff noticed that Cao was about to attack him, he gave the pamphlet to the little boy in advance and asked him to escape with the things. So that Children know a lot of things.”

Lu Baichuan said: "Well, don't rush to arrest people first, let's make the matter bigger first."

Everyone agreed with this opinion, and just as they were about to send someone to do it, someone came to report that it was Miss Cao who came to visit.

Jiang Jiuniang immediately looked at Qin Jian and joked: "It came very quickly this time!"

Qin Jian didn't know why: "What do you mean?"

What happened in the past few days that he didn't know about?

Peng Yuan touched her belly and said calmly: "Then Miss Cao is here for you."

"What are you doing to me? I'm not familiar with her..."

Halfway through his words, he seemed to realize something and repeated exaggeratedly: "Are you here for me?"

The other three nodded in unison, and Qin Jian said after a while: "God, God knows how innocent I am!"

He turned to look at Peng Yuan and solemnly assured: "Daughter-in-law, I'm really not familiar with her, you have to believe me!"

The first thing he worried about was Peng Yuan's mood. Since Peng Yuan became pregnant, he had not had many opportunities to take care of her. He often left her alone. Her mother had sent someone to her home before. He really She was worried that Peng Yuan could not bear it.

However, he still underestimated the abilities of his siblings. His wife's pregnancy anxiety had long been cured.
