The stepmother and Mr. Yang agreed to send her off to marry in a warm house.

Zou Shujuan was too beautiful, so her stepmother didn't dare to marry her to a family that was too good.

Firstly, he couldn't bear to see her living too well, and secondly, he was afraid that once she gained power in the future, he would turn against her, which would be counterproductive.

It's just right for a family like Mr. Yang who is rich but powerless.

What's more, she is not the legal wife, so even if she is favored, she can't cause much trouble.

To outsiders, you can say that you are sending her to enjoy a good life, which is the best of both worlds!

The more the stepmother thought about it, the more satisfied she became with this marriage.

This matter was originally kept secret from Zou Shujuan.

However, seeing that the Yang family was going to marry Zou Shujuan the day after tomorrow, the stepmother could not suppress her pride and wanted to make this thorn in her eyes sad.

So while saying "Juan'er is so happy!", she boasted about promising her to Mr. Yang in advance.

Zou Shujuan was originally planning to go to Beijing secretly after the July 7th funeral ceremony for her father.

Unfortunately, her health was not good. Before the funeral ceremony was over, she was sick every few days and unable to get out of bed.

After a while, the mourning period was almost over.

If her stepmother had not lost her temper, she would not have known that she had been sold by her stepmother for a thousand taels of silver.

My mother really took in a poisonous snake, and it was an extremely venomous one.

Not only did he drink her blood and eat her flesh, he even chewed her bones.

She was eaten till not even a bone was left for her!

If he didn't run away, he would be sent to another wolf's den.

Although she was still feeling dizzy, she forced herself to run away.

So the previous scene happened.

After hearing all this, he looked at the girl who was pressed to the ground in front of him, and then at the woman with drooping eyebrows.

Wang Xin was completely speechless.

If things are really as Zou Shujuan said, then her mother really took in an ungrateful person.

Not only did she and her husband lose their lives, but now her only daughter is going to lose her life.

She originally wanted to wait for Cangli's investigation results, but now her curiosity was piqued.

Wang Xin took out a small dark green pill from his arms, handed it to Cang Yi, and ordered: "Give it to her."

Cang Yi took the pill, took a step forward, and was about to grab the woman's hand.

The woman raised her eyebrows, took a step back, and shouted fiercely, "Who are you? What do you want to give me to eat?"

Seeing that Cang Yi ignored her, he just grabbed her neck with one hand and put the pill into her mouth with the other.

Perhaps they were frightened by the cold and stern aura of Cang Yi. The two maids stood there in a daze and did not move forward. They watched helplessly as the pill was put into the woman's mouth.

The woman used her fingers to dig the pill out of her throat, cursing, "You robbers, you broke into my home in broad daylight and bullied my orphan and widow. Is there any law?"

However, Wang Xin's pills melted in her mouth. She tried to pick them out for a long time, but nothing came out except saliva.

Wang Xin suddenly asked her, "Is it true that you came to Liangcheng to live with your relatives because your husband died and your in-laws disliked you for being a bad luck to your husband?"

When asked, the woman answered without thinking, "Of course not. My former husband was a loser. Not only was he sick, but he also spent all the money in the family on his medical treatment. My parents-in-law forced me to use my dowry to treat that loser. I used a magic incense to knock him out and secretly smothered him to death in the middle of the night to prevent him from being a burden to others."

As soon as the words fell, everyone in the courtyard changed color.

As soon as the woman said this, she felt something was wrong and wanted to cover her mouth with her hands.

This is a secret she hides deep in her heart, how can she tell it to outsiders?

However, she didn't expect that the words seemed to have their own consciousness and burst out without her control.

Her face turned pale, her eyes widened into bells, as if she had seen a ghost.

Wang Xin ignored her fear and continued to ask, "Wancheng is not close to here, more than 200 miles away. How did you think of seeking refuge with Miss Zou's mother? Don't you have other relatives to seek refuge with? How did Miss Zou's parents die?"

Everyone saw that the woman had a twisted face and an extremely reluctant expression, but she replied without any hesitation, "After my husband died, the old couple wanted me to observe mourning and work like a slave to honor them. It was simply a daydream! So I sold my dowry and returned to my natal family and my brothers' home."

She spoke indignantly, as if the old couple were standing right in front of her.

The woman swallowed her saliva and continued, "But my sister-in-law is not a good person to get along with. She always looked down on me. After a few days, I couldn't stand it any longer. I remembered that my cousin had treated me like her own sister since I was a child. She would definitely take me in. So I made up my mind and hired a bullock cart. It took me three full days to get here."

When she said this, her face was full of pride, as if she had done something great.

She glanced at the faces of the people in front of her, only to see that they were all looking at her with disdain.

I'm afraid it's not that her sister-in-law is difficult to get along with, but that she is difficult to get along with?

Several people looked at Miss Zou with sympathy. How blind must her mother be to take in such an ungrateful person?

Sure enough, the woman’s next words confirmed everyone’s guess.

The woman seemed to be possessed by a ghost. Her mouth seemed out of her control and she exposed all her shameful and vicious deeds to everyone.

She opened her mouth and raised her right hand to cover it, but her left hand pulled it away as if on its own initiative.

It was as if there were two souls fighting inside her body. One wanted to pour out everything she had ever done, while the other she tried desperately to stop.

She was going crazy!

The expression on his face was half ferocious and half complacent, making his entire face distorted like a devil.

However, how could an ordinary person withstand the power of Wang Xin's Zhenyan Pill?

Even though the woman's right and left halves were fighting, and she looked like a madman, it did not affect her ability to explode.

"After arriving in Liangcheng, my cousin took me in without hesitation. At first, I was grateful. After all, my brothers all disliked me as a burden. My cousin is indeed the kindest among my relatives."

"But gradually, I saw that my cousin and her husband were in harmony and only had one daughter, but her husband did not dislike her at all, and looked very content with a daughter. What's more, her husband was also very handsome, so I gradually envied her good fortune."

She sighed deeply, "I don't know when I started to think about this, I just know that when I came to my senses, I just wanted to live a life like this."

Anger resurfaced on her face. "I used all kinds of excuses to talk to my cousin's husband. I tried to be nice to him secretly, but he pretended not to understand. I tried to be nice to him openly, but he was unmoved. Later, he even hid in the academy during the day."

Thinking of this, the woman became even angrier. "The more he does this, the stronger my desire to own all of this becomes."

A fierce look flashed in her eyes. "But with my cousin's husband's pedantry, I have no chance as long as my cousin is here. I must find a way to get rid of her."

"The opportunity came soon. My cousin caught a cold, and I happened to know a little about medicine."

"It was a deliberate plan, and my cousin never guarded against me. I couldn't bear to do it myself, so I targeted her personal maid Hongmei. That silly girl was confused, and for the sake of her gambling-addicted brother, I provoked her a little and succeeded in making her dissatisfied with my cousin. You all know what happened to my cousin next."

Everyone was speechless.

Wang Xin really wanted to open her head and see how her brain circuits worked.

Haha, what a shame that you can’t bear to do it yourself!

Does bribing someone else to do it seem more noble than doing it yourself?

It's even more despicable, isn't it?
