She dressed as a concubine and was targeted by the powerful brother.

sleepless nights.

Fu Yan found Fu Rudi early the next morning and stated that she wanted to see Mr. Xie.

Facing this sister, Fu Rudi had grown up with Gu Nian and couldn't bear her being bullied by Chen Qi.

It's like a mirror.

After learning that Fu Yan was angry and fainting on the street after Chen Qi broke off the engagement, Fu Rudi couldn't help but take on the role of Fu Jiao, who was originally isolated and helpless. Was she also so pitiful when He Wuyan broke off the engagement? Will you faint suddenly too?

After Fu Yan fainted, someone sent her to the government office; but at that time, Fu Jiao could only deal with it silently by herself.

"Brother, I want to see my mother."

Fu Yan made her request with difficulty, "I know this is against the rules, but I'm afraid that if I don't see her again, I won't be able to see her again..."

"Mother's crime is too great."

Fu Rudy's face looked troubled.

He didn't know how to comfort Fu Yan. It would be too unkind to say that Mr. Xie brought it upon herself. After all, Mrs. Xie is also her biological mother's cousin. In recent years, Mrs. Xie has managed the middle family and done her best for the Fu family. After talking to Fu Jiao for a long time last night, Fu Rudi was able to understand the tragedy of Xie's marriage. The reason for all the sufferings started with his dissatisfied father.

Fu Rudi didn't sleep well these nights.

He couldn't help but think, if Fu Zhenqing was like ordinary people, who respected his wife, loved his children, and treated his concubines, wives and concubines with a bowl of water, wouldn't what happened now happen?

And it turns out that's true.

The Fu family fell into decline when Fu Zhenqing was in charge, and everything has been traced for a long time.

Fu Rudi didn't want to criticize Fu Zhenqing, he just used people as a mirror. He would never make the same mistake as Fu Zhenqing.

Therefore, even if Fu Yan had murderous intentions towards Fu Jiao, Fu Jiao would not pursue the case, and he, the elder brother, would not add insult to injury. On the contrary, Fu Rudi shouldered the heavy responsibility of taking care of his sister at this time. He said solemnly: "Although the charge has not been determined yet, my mother is in prison and will not suffer."

"When can I meet my mother?"

"Sinan will take you there later."

After all, Fu Rudi was also the second-in-command in Shengjing, so he could easily visit his family.

After he finished speaking, he comforted Fu Yan a few more words, "Don't worry. If the sky falls, there will still be big brother holding up."

What's more, the sky won't fall.

Fu Zhenqing has been an official all his life, but he is just a sesame and mung bean official. With Fu Rudy here, it would be difficult to overthrow the Fu family.

Fu Yan burst into tears of gratitude when she accidentally heard Fu Rudi's words.

Thinking of the attitudes of Fu Jiao and Fu Rudi last night, she couldn't help blurting out: "Brother, I thought you only loved the fourth sister in your heart, but now it seems that I misled you... I am not your biological sister, so I can get what you have." Zhaofu, I, I am so happy that I don’t know what to do..."

Fu Yan's words were incoherent.

She knew that Fu Jiao's status in Fu Rudi's heart was not as good as that of Fu Jiao. She might have occupied a small position in Fu Rudi's eyes, but she was already flattered.

After a brief chat with Fu Rudi, Fu Yan seemed to have found her backbone.

After a while, Si Nan came and took her to visit Xie in prison.

After Fu Rudi learned about the relationship between Xie and Zhou Fangjun, he did not let them avoid suspicion, but arranged for the two of them to stay close together in their cells.

The environment in the cell was much better than Fu Yan imagined.

It's dark but not damp, and the floor is clean. Because it was the twelfth lunar month of winter, the bed was covered with thick cotton wool, so it wouldn't feel cold even if you slept at night.

"This is it."

Si Nan coughed twice and reminded: "Miss Third, you shouldn't stay too long, otherwise..."

Fu Yan nodded hurriedly, "I don't have to."

She stared at the familiar figure on the bed board.

Xie also heard the noise, her body stiffened, and she got out of bed.

She looked at Fu Yan in disbelief, "Yan'er, why are you here?" Without waiting for Fu Yan to answer, Ms. Xie quickly knocked on the railing next door, "Fangjun, Fangjun, Yan'er came to visit us!"

There was a rustling sound. Zhou Fangjun was also lying on the cell door, staring hungrily at the daughter he longed for. He wanted to speak, but didn't know what to say. He was afraid of annoying Fu Yan, so he just accumulated tears in his eyes.

Fu Yan felt inexplicably uncomfortable when he looked like this.

She did not go to see Zhou Fangjun, but asked Ms. Xie: "Mom, how are you these two days?"

"very good."

Xie did not tell lies, "With your elder brother taking care of me these days, Fangjun and I have never suffered in prison. Your elder brother also cared about me and kept me from being separated from Fangjun."

Without the control of the talisman, Xie became more and more relieved after regaining consciousness.

She sighed: "I would also like to thank you for the jar of wine, which made me drunk well. When I am drunk, it is the real world. In this dark prison these two days, I have Fangjun by my side. I don’t feel lonely either. Compared to being a cautious matron in the Fu family, in this prison, I seem to have found the meaning of survival.”

"Mother……"

Fu Yan doesn't understand.

Why is my mother so obsessed with Zhou Fangjun?

She also likes Chen Qi.

But what Chen Qi did now made her feel only disgust and no lingering thoughts at all.

"The aftertaste of that jar of wine is really strong." Ms. Xie was still sighing.

Fu Yan's heart skipped a beat and she couldn't help but said: "Mom, that wine is just ordinary green plum wine. Even a child won't get drunk if you drink it! I don't understand why you got so drunk after just one drink?"

In her memory, Xie often drank with his female relatives during festivals and festivals.

It's not a huge amount, but it's not like a cup of sweet green plum wine can make you drunk.

Xie felt weird.

She sneered: "If the wine is really not intoxicating, why would I say anything? Haha, could it be that I am under some kind of spell?"

Xie's self-deprecating words made Zhou Fangjun chuckle.

Ms. Xie glanced at him coquettishly, "Huh, even if it's a magic spell, it's still a love spell that Fangjun cast on me."

She and Zhou Fangjun were still in the mood to joke.

Fu Yan felt terrified.

That green plum wine... I'm afraid it doesn't really have some terrible talisman to reveal the truth. After all, Fu Jiao will save ghosts, so there's no guarantee that she won't do something in the wine that day.

This thought made Fu Yan shudder.

If this is really the case, then everything she and Mr. Xie do is in the eyes of Fu Jiao and Fu Rudi. Maybe, Si Nan, the Yamen Chai standing next to him, also knew it clearly.

Fu Yan glanced at Sinan, who smiled politely at her.

"Yan'er, now I can see Fang Jun when I open my eyes. I'm so happy. No matter what crime I'm convicted of later, I'm not afraid."

Mr. Xie does not regret telling the truth that day after drinking.

In prison, she was accompanied by Zhou Fangjun day and night, and she did not have to guard against Fu Zhenqing or avoid the eyes of the world. They talked endlessly during the day, and at night they could hold hands and fall asleep with each other's breathing.

Xie has never been so happy in these years.

"Mother……"

Fu Yan murmured lowly.

She looked at the love in Xie's and Zhou Fangjun's eyes, and she chose to hide the weirdness of green plum wine in her heart.

It doesn't matter now.

Fu Jiao's strength is a fact. She admits defeat. She doesn't dare to fight. Some secrets should be kept secret forever.
