The prison in Jingzhao Prefecture was dark, and the people imprisoned inside were all dishevelled and dirty.

Not only is the environment dirty, but big rats and cockroaches would jump out from time to time.

Moreover, when the prisoners in the jail saw someone coming to visit them, they stretched out their arms and shouted at her, which scared Madam Qi so much.

After all, she had been the head nanny of the lady of Jingyang Marquis's mansion for the past few years and was used to a life of luxury. She had never seen such a scene before.

Nanny Qi suppressed her inner fear and followed Qi Quan to the last cell.

She saw a woman with messy hair lying on a bed covered with weeds with her back to her. There was a broken bowl on the ground with two mice gnawing at it.

They were not afraid when they saw someone coming, and even looked at Aunt Qi and the others provocatively, as if Aunt Qi was coming to compete with them for food.

Aunt Qi's eyes couldn't help but become teary when she saw this. Is this still Hongyu, her most beauty-loving niece?

It was only her second day in jail and she had already been tortured into this state.

Aunt Qi said with a choked voice: "Hongyu..."

Hongyu, who was extremely frightened, turned over immediately when she heard the familiar voice. Seeing that it was indeed Aunt Qi, she quickly climbed down from the bed.

She gripped the bars of the cell tightly, sobbing and desperately wanting Madam Qi to rescue her.

But when she opened her mouth, all that was left was half a bloody tongue.

When Aunt Qi saw this, her scalp suddenly went numb and she got goose bumps all over her body.

Although she had heard other servants in Marquis Jingyang's mansion mention that Hongyu had her tongue cut by Lu Chenshuang, and she had already prepared herself for it, it was far less shocking than seeing it with her own eyes.

Aunt Qi resisted the urge to vomit and said in a trembling voice, "Hongyu, don't worry, I will definitely find a way to get you out."

Hongyu shook her head. She didn’t want to stay here anymore. She wanted to go out now.

This is not a place for people to stay. She can't stay here for even a day.

It's okay during the day, but at night it's like hell on earth with ghosts howling and wolves howling.

The jailers who interrogate the prisoners in these prisons are simply not human beings. They will brand the prisoners with branding irons and whip them with whips dipped in pepper water.

Although they didn't beat her, I heard that she hasn't been interrogated yet. Will she have to suffer these tortures when they do? She might as well confess honestly.

Nanny Qi saw Hongyu shaking her head frantically and sobbing something.

Because Hongyu had lost her tongue and couldn't speak clearly, but Nanny Qi probably knew that she wanted her to rescue her.

But she had no power and the lady refused to help her. How could she save Hongyu?

Qi Quan, who was standing by, saw that the time was almost up and started to urge, "Okay, time is up, let's go quickly. If someone sees us, I will be embarrassed."

Nanny Qi stood up helplessly. Hongyu became even more frightened when she saw Nanny Qi was about to leave. She slammed the bars of the cell hard and cried out while sobbing.

Perhaps Hongyu's screams were too shrill, so many people looked over here. The person in the cell closest to her was sleeping and was awakened by Hongyu's miserable screams.

He suddenly became unhappy and yelled at Hongyu, "What are you yelling about, bitch? You're still not quiet even after your tongue was pulled out. Believe it or not, I'll cut you!"

The man who was speaking was Tu Laoliu, a well-known bully on the street. He didn't do any big things, but he was always in trouble with small things. He was also a frequent visitor to the Jingzhao Prefecture prison.

Even in the prison, everyone was afraid of him, and he looked so fierce, so Hongyu was so scared that she shrank into a corner and dared not speak.

Qi Quan looked at the man with a frown on his face and scolded him, "Tu Laoliu, this is a prison, why are you screaming?"

Tu Laoliu did not give Qi Quan face, but curled his lips and said: "Qi Quan, what you said is not right.

It's not me who's yelling, it's this woman who's howling here.

We all heard it, you can't wrongly accuse a good person."

To be honest, Tu Laoliu really didn't take Qi Quan seriously. If Liang Youzhi hadn't stepped in, no one could have caught him.

The prisoners in the jail burst into laughter when they heard this. Some of those who were familiar with Tu Laoliu laughed and scolded him, "Tu Laoliu, you have the nerve to say that you are a good person.

You've been in and out of this cell so many times, and no one knows this place as well as you do."

Tu Laoliu was not angry after being scolded, he just laughed and said: "I will be out soon, unlike you who want to stay in prison forever."

Seeing these people chatting among themselves without hesitation, Qi Quan winked at Nanny Qi and asked her to leave quickly.

Seeing this, Nanny Qi did not dare to delay. She broke free from Hongyu's hand and quickly followed Qi Quan out of the prison.

All that was left behind was Hongyu's sobbing and the noisy sound of everyone laughing.

After Nanny Qi came out of the prison, she thanked Qi Quan and then returned to Marquis Jingyang's Mansion.

In the afternoon, Xiaoman also came back from outside.

She reported today's situation to Lu Chenshuang.

Xiaoman smiled and said, "Miss, how could it be such a coincidence? As soon as I told Doctor Yang about this situation, Doctor Yang immediately said that he had a friend who wanted to sell his house. It was a three-story courtyard, right on East Street."

Lu Chenshuang said, "What a coincidence. Have you been to this yard?"

Xiaoman nodded and said, "Yes, Doctor Yang happened to be free today, so he took me there.

Although the yard is not very big, the decoration inside is very exquisite.

The furniture is 90% new. It just meets the girl's requirements."

Lu Chenshuang asked with some doubt: "Is it really such a coincidence? Could it be Yang Chengzu's own house?"

It’s no wonder that Lu Chenshuang had such doubts. Yang Chengzu had always regarded her as his master and respected her very much.

Yesterday, I saw that the servants of Jingyang Marquis's mansion dared to ruin her reputation in the street, and I wanted to help her.

Although Lu Chenshuang really needed to find a place to live, she was not in a hurry. After all, the scumbag had not come back yet, and she could still live in the Jingyang Marquis Mansion for a while.

Xiao Man thought for a moment and said, "That's not the case. I saw that the house was nice and I thought the young lady would like it, so I asked Doctor Yang about the house.

Doctor Yang said that it was a friend of his who wanted to ask Doctor Yang to sell the house because he was going to return to his hometown to retire.

I specifically asked for his friend's name, and asked someone about it when I got out of the house. The situation was the same as what Dr. Yang said."

Lu Chenshuang smiled and praised, "Our Xiaoman is really becoming more and more capable, and his work is becoming more and more meticulous."

Xiaoman did a really good job, so Lu Chenshuang naturally praised her generously.

Xiaoman heard this and said with a flattering smile: "It's all because of the good teaching of the girl."

After saying this, Xiaoman thought for a while and said, "Miss, I gave Laibao some money but he refused to take it. He wants to ask you for a favor."

Lu Chenshuang said, "You want medicine, right?"

Xiaoman nodded. Laibao really wanted to ask for medicine. The reason why he sold himself to Jingyang Marquis Mansion was to exchange money for his mother's medical treatment.

Now that I know Lu Chenshuang has such excellent medical skills, I naturally don’t want to seek help far away.

But after all, he was just a servant. How could he have the qualifications to ask Lu Chenshuang to treat his mother?

So as a second best option, it would be good to ask Lu Chenshuang for some secondary medicine.
