Five-year-old little girl: Mom has thousands of acres of material space

Chapter 313 Instigating Rebellion
"Madam, I dare not say a single word falsely..." Aunt Wu San buried her head in wiping her tears, not daring to look up at Zheng who was sitting in the main seat.

Only then did Zheng wink at the maid serving beside her.

The maid immediately took out a hundred taels of silver and handed it to Aunt Wu who was kneeling on the ground: "Get up, this is a reward from the Madam."

Zheng said, "Go back and wait for me. I will call you when I have something to ask."

"Okay, thank you, ma'am." Aunt Wu hurriedly took the hundred taels of silver and stuffed it into her arms, then followed the servant and left the Sun family through the back door.

As soon as she left Sun's house, she couldn't wait to get on the carriage and said to the driver, "Hurry, go back to Yuhe Village!"

The trembling in her voice could not be concealed, with excitement, fear, and even more urgency...

She was excited because of the newly acquired 100 taels of silver notes, plus the 100 taels that the Sun family had given her in advance. Now she already had 200 taels. The Sun family really kept their word...

However, the corpse poison in her body made her not really happy.

She had to go back to ask Jiang for the antidote, and before the Sun family discovered that she was lying, she would take the two hundred taels of silver and run away.

……

at the same time.

As soon as Aunt Wu left, Zheng couldn't wait to take her brother to the front yard to find Mr. Sun.

"Are you serious? Has the Jiang family's marriage severance document really been destroyed?"

"Master, it's true. I personally ordered people to steal the severance document from the Jiang family and had it destroyed." Zheng said with a solemn expression, "The Jiang family no longer has the severance document to rely on. Master, you'd better act quickly to avoid any more trouble."

"Yes, yes." Zheng Yaocai chimed in, "It's better to get the soap recipe as soon as possible, in case the Jiang family gets wind of it and takes precautions."

"But..." Sun Yuan still had some doubts on his face, "The magistrate of Yong'an County, Du, has a personal relationship with the Jiang family. If we take action now..."

Although he was a member of the Yuanwai family, this title was bought with donations and he had no real power at all. On the other hand, Magistrate Du was a seventh-rank official...

"Master, what's the difficulty?" Zheng suggested, "If we want to deal with the Jiang family, we can completely bypass the county magistrate of Yong'an County and let the county magistrate of Qingping County take over. Anyway, the Li family has been driven out of Yuhe Village, and it was our Sun family who took him in. His family is now our Qingping County talent."

"Sister is right!" Zheng Yaocai said, "Brother-in-law, don't hesitate any longer, just do it now."

After the brother and sister tried their best to persuade him, Mr. Sun was finally moved.

"Okay, I'll go to the county government office now."

"Master, take this with you." Zheng took out the complaint that the Li family had signed long ago. "When the interrogation takes place in court, I will ask the Li family to come forward. This time, I will definitely charge Jiang with a crime of being unfilial. Even if I can't kill her, I will at least make her suffer!"

"That's right!" Zheng Yaocai nodded. "How dare this Jiang family member go against us? Let's let her know how powerful we are. It would be best if we send her to jail for a few years, and then she will have to admit her defeat and hand over the soap recipe!"

When Mr. Sun looked at the complaint that Zheng took out, the last trace of doubt in his heart disappeared.

He rolled his eyes and immediately sent someone to set up a carriage and decided to go to the county government office in person. Although he had a good relationship with the county magistrate Lu of Qingping County, he still brought a lot of gold and silver to make things go smoothly.

……

the other side.

Aunt Wu has already returned to Yuhe Village in a horse-drawn carriage.

As soon as she entered the village, she went straight to Jiang's house without even going home.

Jiang Xiaoxiao was discussing the formula of honeycomb coal with her mother in the yard. When Aunt Wu came in, she knelt down in front of Jiang Wei.

"Mother Xiaoxiao, I have done what you asked. Please give me the antidote quickly."

Jiang Wei put down the brush and said calmly, "Why rush? The medicine will take two days to take effect. It won't be too late to give you the antidote after we solve the Sun family's problem."

How could Aunt Wu dare to wait until that time? If the Sun family found out that she was lying, how would she survive?

She begged quickly, "Mother Xiaoxiao, please be kind and let me go. If the Sun family finds out that I helped you, they will definitely not forgive me. Just give me the antidote, and I will leave Yuhe Village immediately and promise not to appear in front of you and get in your way again."

"Why, are you scared now?" Jiang Wei glared at her coldly, "When you agreed to help the Sun family to harm me, you should have anticipated this consequence."

"Aunt, the Sun family should have given you a lot of money." Jiang Xiaoxiao put down the honeycomb briquettes mold forming machine diagram she was drawing, slowly walked to Aunt Wu San, and deliberately looked at her bulging arms, "Let me guess, the Sun family gave you one hundred taels of silver, or two hundred taels of silver? You want to run away with this money, right?"

Jiang Xiaoxiao's words hit home her secret thoughts. Aunt Wu immediately lowered her head in embarrassment and tried to argue: "I, I just want to leave and avoid the limelight..."

"Oh, do you really think you can leave?" Jiang Xiaoxiao sneered, her face showing a maturity that was inconsistent with her age. "The Sun family even stingy with the wages of the boatmen at the Qingping County dock. Do you really think the Sun family will be so generous as to give you so much money to let you run away?"

Jiang Xiaoxiao smiled slightly, and said, "His family gave you money just to shut you up, fearing that you would fight back and bite others in court. When this matter is resolved, the Sun family can find a reason to get back the hundreds of taels of silver from you. This is still a lucky situation... If you are unlucky, how can you guarantee that the Sun family will let you, who knows the secret of the severance document, live?"

These words made Aunt Wu break out in a cold sweat.

She knew better than anyone that the Sun family were not good people at all.

Regardless of whether this matter succeeds or not, in order to avoid being gossiped about and caught, the Sun family will definitely find a way to get rid of her, the only person who knows about it!

No wonder Zheng was so generous with the money, it turns out she was waiting here!

Aunt Wu immediately figured out the key.

She kowtowed to the mother and daughter and cried, "I don't want it anymore... I don't want the antidote, and I don't want the money either. Xiaoxiao's mother, you must save me. I don't want to die. I beg you..."

Jiang Wei supported her chin with her hand and looked deeply at her daughter. Then she cast her gaze on Aunt Wu who was crying bitterly. She curled her lips slightly and said, "It's not difficult for us to save you. It depends on your performance in the court."

"Performance?" Aunt Wu was stunned.

What does this mean? Are they going to ask her to testify against the Sun family in court?
