Qiu hit the woman next to her second uncle with a stick, and she didn't look like the dignified and noble old lady she used to be.

Although the second uncle may not like his wife very much, if he remained indifferent after his wife was beaten in front of so many people, he would be called a spineless person.

Since the relationship had fallen out, the second uncle snatched the stick from Qiu's hand and kicked Qiu far away.

"you you…"

Qiu spat out a mouthful of blood. She didn't know whether it was because she was angry or because she was really kicked.

Being abandoned by him was different from being beaten by him. She felt pain! Not only her stomach hurt, but her internal organs also hurt, and her muscles all over her body were twitching uncontrollably.

She suddenly laughed out loud towards the sky, and looked as miserable as she could be.

Seeing him like this, Second Uncle's eyes also flashed with a trace of pity.

But when he thought of so much money, he suddenly changed into a cold look again, and said condescendingly: "Sister-in-law, you'd better leave quickly! When my brother leaves, let me take care of you. I don't want to do it."

I don't want to do it, but I still do it for the sake of the old marquis. Should I thank him? How ridiculous!

An unprecedented hatred burst out from Qiu's eyes, and she rushed towards him suddenly, and shouted: "Catch them all, regardless of life or death. If you kill one of the second wife, I will reward you with 50 taels of silver."

The servants who were just pretending to be nice at home, were shocked when they heard what Qiu said.

Suddenly everyone got excited.

Start playing with no regard for your life,

That's 50 taels! These days, even a life is not worth 50 taels.

Second Uncle knew that Mrs. Qiu was cruel, but he never thought that she was so cruel and would not take human life seriously.

But he was also telling the truth. The betrothal gifts were indeed no longer with him. He had already sent them to his eldest son.

He tried to calm down Qiu. How could a woman who was heartbroken listen to him?

Soon, someone from the second room fell down due to this desperate fighting style.

Qiu also scratched my uncle's hands, leaving many bloody marks.

His wife and Qiu fell to the ground, slapping and fighting each other. The scene looked extremely chaotic.

It looks as miserable as it can be.

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk..." Feng Mo clicked his tongue. This woman was really terrifying when she fought. She looked like she had difficulty walking normally, but when she fought, she was not inferior to those of them who had martial arts skills.

“This…this…this…” Liu Hen didn’t know what to say. He had witnessed the deep love between his second uncle and Mrs. Qiu. They were so sweet together.

He turned to look at his niece sitting across from him.

Is it because his niece is too capable? Or is the friendship between his second uncle and the Qiu family watered down?

No matter what the result was, Liu Heng looked at Liu Yu with a little more fear.

His gaze then fell on Mr. Chen San, who was sitting next to Liu Yu, and he became a little worried.

Liu Yu sensed Uncle San's complicated emotions. She turned slightly to ask Uncle Sanye: "Do you think I'm too cruel?"

Mr. Chen San glanced at him, handed the peeled orange slices to her mouth, and then leaned over to her ear and said, "This is a reward for you."

Liu Yu opened his mouth and ate it, then turned to Liu Heng and smiled tearfully.

Well! Liu Heng was fed a mouthful of candy.

He blinked his lips, it seemed that his worries were unnecessary.

It's just like worrying about nothing. He just keeps his heart in his stomach.

Turn around again and look at the situation on the other side.

At this time, the movement of the second house not only attracted the surrounding neighbors, but in the distance, there were also several officials in yamen uniforms walking quickly towards them.

"What are you doing?"

The officers quickly pulled the two teams apart.

Qiu had learned a lot from the old marquis, and as the old lady of the Pingnan Marquis's Mansion, she took the initiative and explained the situation to the official first.

Compared to the Pingnan Marquis Mansion, the second branch was even more destitute, with no one in the officialdom. Of course, the officials would help the Qiu family, and they immediately ignored the opposition of everyone in the second branch.

Order everyone in the second room to move out of the way.

In the Jin Dynasty, when the people did not fight with the officials,

The second wife had no choice but to give way even though she was dissatisfied.

All the people brought by Qiu rushed into the second room, but no matter how hard Qiu dug, she couldn't find any betrothal gifts.

Qiu was so angry that she rushed into the storeroom and prepared to use the money from the second wife to fill the gap.

You can go into the warehouse and take a look.

The few shabby things inside were all things she had brought from the Pingnan Marquis's Mansion as gifts to her second uncle.

If you don't want me, don't even think about using the things I give you.

With this mentality, we smashed everything that could be smashed and took away everything that could be taken away.

But in the end he only got a mere 30 taels, which was a drop in the bucket compared to the taels of betrothal gift he received from her.

Seeing Qiu rushing into the second room, brothers Liu Heng and Liu Yan'an breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, thinking that they could finally get the betrothal gifts back!

But when they saw Qiu coming out of the second room empty-handed, their eyes suddenly widened and they asked in confusion, "What's going on?"

The two brothers had the same thought in their minds at the same time: Could it be that these two old couples were putting on a show for them?

They told Liu Yu about their idea.

Liu Yu shook her head, denying their guess, and said with certainty: "The things were indeed moved away by Liu Wei, and I asked A Zhong to watch over it." Because she was the one who was in charge.

Looking at Liu Yu, who was neither anxious nor idle, the two men had to control their temper and look at the situation on the opposite side again.

Just as they expected, Mrs. Qiu would not let the second house off so easily.

Qiu Shi gave half of the silver he had looted from the second house to the official waiting on the side, and it was unknown what he said in the official's ear.

The officer's expression changed from excitement to glaring at the people in the second house.

Then he walked up with a few brothers in a menacing manner, drew the sword from his waist and put it against the second uncle's throat, and shouted:

"You are so brave, old man! Tell me, where did you put the silver you stole from the Marquis of Pingnan's mansion?"

"I...I...my master didn't have it!" The second uncle felt that he could still resist.

But Qiu was not going to give him this chance. He cheated her of her money and her feelings. How could she just let it go? If she let him go, she would only save her life and Zhang'er's life.

She walked up to the officer and said expressionlessly in a voice that only the three of them could hear: "Master Guan, you kill him. I will take care of the aftermath."

The officer was tempted, because the old lady of Pingnan Marquis had just said that if he could help him find the silver, she would reward him 10,000 taels.

His monthly salary is only five taels.

This is money that he could never earn even after working as a yamen runner for many years!

And killing is too common for them.

The officer nodded.

Seeing that the two people in front of him had reached a consensus, the second uncle did not dare to delay any longer and quickly told them where the silver was hidden.
