In the book, I was fed by my sister

Li Manpeng's weak voice exploded like thunder, and the crowd of onlookers began to whisper.

"Money? Where does the money come from?" This question echoed in Wu Yinhong's mind, making her confused.

All the money in the family is in her hands, so where does this money come from?

However, now was not the time to ask where the money came from. Wu Yinhong realized that this was a rare opportunity. The money was definitely not for that fool, so where did it go?

Her eyes moved quickly and her gaze fell on Li Peishan.

Wu Yinhong's tears suddenly welled up in her eyes, as if she could perform a magic trick.

She pretended to be aggrieved, snuggled up to Li Manpeng, crying and pinching his soft flesh hard.

She choked up and said, "My life is so hard. My family can't even afford to eat, but you took the money out. Did you give it to Li Peishan?"

In recent years, things have changed. Li Manpeng is no match for Wu Yinhong, who is tall and strong and does physical work, and has been bullied and oppressed by Wu Yinhong for many years.

Wu Yinhong pinched his flesh, and he knew what he should say: "Yes, yes!"

Su Xiaoxiao's heart tightened, and the situation changed.

Damai has been detained for more than a month. Unlike before when she was hungry, although her life in the cell restricted her freedom, at least she had food to eat three times a day, which gradually helped her recover.

One could even say that she looked a little fatter than before.

She knelt down on the ground obediently, feeling somewhat bewildered and helpless about being suddenly brought out. She didn't know what she had done wrong, and like an innocent little deer, she could only try to get closer to her grandmother to seek some comfort.

Yang Yihe looked at Li Baomai deeply, his heart full of sympathy.

He asked someone to investigate the poor girl's past in depth, and was heartbroken to learn that no one loved her and she was even insulted like this.

He felt sympathy, but still had to ask, "Can you tell me more about it?" This situation was not mentioned in the lawsuits filed by both parties. It is now strictly forbidden to open a kiln privately. If it is confirmed, it will be disadvantageous to both parties.

"I gave him ten copper coins each time, and I gave him more than ten times."

Li Peishan immediately retorted: "Don't talk nonsense, sir, you must find out the truth! Logically speaking, after the household division, this idiot can't be considered my family member, and I have never done such a thing."

Li Manpeng said: "I didn't lie..."

"I didn't get a penny!"

"It's for Zhou Huixin!"

Zhou Huixin had been lying on the ground, and when she heard her name being called, she trembled for a moment, then calmed down again.

Li Peishan pulled Zhou Huixin over and asked, "Is this true?"

"Yes."

"Where is the money? Why can't I see it!" Li Peishan asked angrily.

"I… spent it all."

Li Peishan stared at her and whispered viciously: "I will kill you if I go back!"

"Do you know... that opening a kiln privately is a crime." Yang Yihe's voice was strong and stern, shocking everyone in the hall.

Everyone was shocked. There were illegal brothels everywhere, so why did the county magistrate suddenly make such a fuss about such a small matter?

"I plead guilty!" Zhou Huixin said loudly, and then she became dejected again.

She actually didn't have many years left to live, so it would be better if she died.

Yang Yihe was quite surprised by this reaction. He thought that the old woman would at least try to defend herself, and he would send someone to collect evidence.

Meanwhile, Li Manpeng panicked. He argued, "No, no, no, I'm just willing to pay. This doesn't count as soliciting prostitution!"

He offered to give money to Zhou Huixin just to clear himself of the charge of trespassing at night without reason, but why was he sentenced to a more serious crime?

Wu Yinhong was also dumbfounded. She couldn’t get the money...

The gavel banged loudly.

"Zhou Huixin opened a kiln to lure women and children. The leader... was executed."

Hearing this, Zhou Huixin instantly lost her spirit. She fell weakly to the ground, and Li Manpeng was trembling with fear.

"Li Manpeng visited a prostitute privately and was sentenced to 40 strokes of the cane and a fine of two hundred taels of silver."

At this time, Li Manpeng was completely at a loss. He couldn't believe that he would be punished so severely for such a trivial matter.

"Li Baomai was guilty of engaging in... the activity and wounding others with an object, but considering that he acted like a child and was forced to do it, he shall be punished with 20 strokes of the cane."

Li Peishan has not yet recovered from the verdict on Zhou Huixin? Why was she sentenced to death all of a sudden?

He had slept with someone for more than 40 years, and he thought that today was just a formality, so why was he sentenced to death?

He looked at Zhou Huixin blankly, then looked up at the young county magistrate sitting high up, his heart full of confusion and helplessness.

The villagers of Lihua Village were so surprised at the verdict that they were speechless. In their eyes, Li Damai was a poor child, and Li Peishan and his people's indifference to this little fool was even more chilling.

Only Zhou Huixin took care of her without telling her family, bringing her meals and helping her bathe.

Grandma Gu burst into tears. She said to Zhou Huixin distressedly: "Huixin, how could you be so confused!"

Zhou Huixin was escorted to her feet. Before leaving, she glanced at Li Baomai, saw a bunch of angry and puzzled eyes behind her, and then saw Gu Guanlan, who was once her good friend when they were young.

She let out a deep breath.

Da Mai couldn't figure out what was going on. Two officers came up and pulled her up. She looked at her grandmother walking away from her and asked anxiously, "Grandma, when are we going home?"

At this moment, Zhou Huixin lost control of her emotions and yelled with tears streaming down her face, "She can't even give birth to a child, who will take care of her? How many years do I have left to live? What will happen if I'm gone? It's not like I haven't taught her how to cook, but she just can't do it! What can I do? What can I do? Let her be a short-lived ghost? She can't even live to be twenty, just like... just like my summer flower? My heart aches!"

"It's all... it's all you!" She looked at Li Peishan trembling all over, "You devil! You've ruined my life!"

She broke free from the shackles and pounced towards Li Peishan.

Li Peishan didn't stand steadily, his head hit the ground, and his whole body went limp.
