"Qingcheng, I beg you, don't go. If you go out and talk nonsense, I will die in front of your door immediately." Wen Yufeng looked at Wen Qingcheng steadily with bloodshot eyes, with a hint of pleading and determination.

"Who are you threatening with your life? I don't care whether you live or die. I wanted to get my money back and leave, but you guys want to default on my debt. You unilaterally broke the contract, so I will also break the confidentiality agreement and ask you for compensation for the delay. The total is one hundred taels. If you don't give it to me, then I'll go to Xu Lizheng to seek justice!"

Wen Yufeng saw that her time had doubled in just a short while, so she was unwilling to leave. Old Lady Wen held Wen Qingcheng tightly, "You can't leave!"

"What are you doing? Do you still want to put me under house arrest? Uncle, go report to the police! Someone is illegally detaining me here!"

After being made such a fuss by Wen Qingcheng, Boss Wen also became afraid. Seeing that Wen Qingcheng was so excited, who knows what trouble she might cause. If the matter was exposed, how could they hold their heads up in Yueya Village in the future? If she continued to pester them for the hundred taels, they would suffer a great loss.

"Enough, why are you making such a fuss? Are you going to go out and tell everyone in the village? Do you think the villagers won't laugh at you? Yufeng, give her the money and let her go!" Boss Wen waved his hands irritably, telling Wen Qingcheng to get out.

Wen Qingcheng got the banknotes and turned around and left with Wen Zhuo. They got on the carriage, which blocked out the noise from outside. All they could hear were the noisy voices of men and women. They didn't need to listen to know that the family was cursing harshly.

When she got home, Ye Xiuying was surprised to see Wen Qingcheng and Wen Zhuo coming back. Mo Jinghong was standing under the Albizia albizzia tree in the yard, looking at her with a half-smile.

"Qingcheng, Azhuo, why did you come back so soon? Or did you forget to take something? Don't miss the court session." Ye Xiuying couldn't figure out what was going on.

Wen Qingcheng said nothing. Although she got the banknotes back, she was still unhappy. She could imagine that Wang Heng would not be locked up for long and would walk out in a swagger. By then, not only the Wang brothers and sisters, but the entire Wang family would plot revenge on them, the Wen family. Even though they didn't dare to do anything openly with the presence of Mo Jinghong, the boss, who knew what vicious schemes he would come up with.

Seeing Wen Qingcheng's sad face and silent, Wen Zhuo sighed and explained, "Yufeng is too much. She actually reconciled with Wang Bozhen in private. She went to the county government office to withdraw the case early yesterday morning, and didn't come to tell us earlier. I didn't expect to be tricked by the boss and his family."

Ye Xiuying was also very angry. "This was clearly agreed upon. Yufeng also said that she hated Wang Heng, and we were helping her to get revenge, but she just quietly dropped the case."

Mo Jinghong saw Wen Qingcheng clenching her fist and pounding it heavily on the stone table in the yard, and reached out to poke her. Wen Qingcheng looked up at Mo Jinghong and then lowered her eyes and said nothing. She was not in the mood to play with him now.

"Why do you look so pale? Go back to your room and put on some makeup. We'll go to the court this afternoon." Mo Jinghong said.

"Why go to the next court? Wen Yufeng has already withdrawn the case!" Wen Qingcheng thought Mo Jinghong didn't understand, so she explained it again in annoyance.

Mo Jinghong crossed his arms and smiled mysteriously, "Who said that this is only Wen Yufeng's case? Was the "newspaper" we spread before in vain?"

Wen Zhuo and Ye Xiuying also looked over curiously. Seeing that Mo Jinghong looked confident, Wen Qingcheng stood up and asked, "Brother Mo, do you know something?"

Mo Jinghong raised his hand to rub Wen Qingcheng's nose, but considering the presence of his elders, he retracted his hand and said with a smile, "Yesterday I asked Ah Falcon to go out and find out the situation. When those victims who were harmed by Wang Heng saw someone taking the lead in suing Wang Heng, they all went to the county government office."

Ah Falcon nodded and said, "Yes, there are two confirmed ones."

Wen Qingcheng and the others were delighted. "So, even if Wen Yufeng withdraws the case, Wang Heng will not be able to escape the law!"

"I have been asking Yunpeng to keep an eye on Wen Yufeng's home. When I saw that she had indeed gone to the county government office, I knew that this matter would change. So I sent Axuan to inquire about the news near the county government office. If there is a victim, he will definitely go to the county government office to inquire about Wang Heng's affairs. I asked Axuan to hire a lawyer for them, and they will be willing to report to the authorities."

"So you already knew that Wen Yufeng had gone to withdraw the case. Why didn't you tell me? You made my uncle and I get up so early in the morning."

"I just sent someone to keep an eye on her. I saw her and Boss Wen go to the county government office, so I'm not sure whether she has withdrawn the case."

Wen Zhuo said: "Thanks to Chuyi for sending Ah Falcon to help those victims hire lawyers. Now, we don't need Yufeng, and we can also bring down Wang Heng."

Ah Falcon said, "I heard from the lawyer they hired that the case will be heard in court at 4:00 this afternoon, and the two victims will be tried together."

Wen Qingcheng's eyes suddenly lit up, and she looked at Mo Jinghong happily, "So you just asked me to go to the court, and this time it's all thanks to you. Wang Bozhen thought everything was fine after he dealt with Wen Yufeng, but I guess Wang Bozhen is almost doubting his life."

"It was your idea to spread the 'newspapers' all over the city. As the saying goes, when the wall falls, everyone pushes it. When everyone sees that Wang Heng is in trouble, those who have been harmed by Wang Heng will naturally stand up and respond." Mo Jinghong's eyes were full of admiration.

Wen Qingcheng smiled, looked at Wen Zhuo and then at Mo Jinghong, "But... his case will only be tried in the second court, not in the lobby. People like us who have nothing to do with it won't be able to enter."

Wen Zhuo said, "I heard that if you take your household registration documents to the county government office to register, you can apply to go in and listen to the trial."

Mo Jinghong took out a jade token from his waist and handed it to Wen Qingcheng casually. Wen Qingcheng took it with both hands.

"Just say that Master Mo is very concerned about this case and will definitely let you in."

Wen Qingcheng and Wen Zhuo looked at each other, both of them were delighted. "Then I'll go with my uncle this afternoon. Mom is still at home, so we shouldn't bring too many people."

Wen Qingcheng wanted to see Wang Heng sentenced in person, even though during the meeting, the county court had already tried him for attempted murder, and the person who worked for him confessed all the ways Wang Heng sent people to instruct him, and Wang Heng had no way to defend himself, so he signed the sentence. But he hadn't been sentenced yet, and he had originally wanted to sentence him together with Wen Yufeng's case, but Wen Yufeng withdrew, so he would sentence him together with the other two victims.

......

Towards evening, Wen Zhuo and Wen Qingcheng finished listening to the court in the county government and came back from the county town by car. Ye Xiuying and Song Jiao prepared a large banquet and placed a variety of dishes on the eight-immortal table in the main hall on the first floor. The two little ones, Zicheng and Tingyu, were running around in the yard.

Seeing the uncle and nephew coming back, Song Jiao said happily, "You're back, wash your hands quickly, Dad will be here soon, and my second sister-in-law insisted on keeping us here for dinner tonight."

Ye Xiuying brought out two plates from the kitchen. "Today is a good day, let's celebrate it. Azhuo, Qingcheng, come and tell us what happened in court today."
