The moon falling to the ground

Jian Yue looked bewildered: "It was my first day in the city, my first time meeting her, and I didn't offend her. Moreover, when she came back with the medicine, I don't know what she said to my mother. When I walked in, my mother held a feather duster and said to me, "You still remember to come back? Why don't you die outside?"

The onlookers were in an uproar again.

Is this my real mother? Why would she curse her own daughter like this?

Jian Yue sobbed a bit, lowered her head and wiped away her tears. She felt that she was very into the role and acted in her true colors.

The crowd was filled with righteous indignation and blamed Qian. But at the same time, they also questioned Jian Yue's words. The reason was that Yan Xinning was a well-known talented woman.

"No way? Miss Xinning is a gentle and kind person. How could she let the maid bully a poor little girl?"

"Maybe this girl is lying and making up stories about Miss Xinning."

"Ms. Xinning is a famous female bodhisattva. She would never do something that would lower her status. It is also possible that her maid is taking advantage of her status to bully others."

Many people nodded in agreement: "There are many cases of servants bullying their masters in wealthy families. The one called Huamei must have looked down on this poor girl and took it upon himself to bully her."

"Yes, yes, yes, that's it."

But there are also loyal die-hard fans who do not allow others to blaspheme the goddess in their hearts. A young man shouted in dissatisfaction in the hall: "Little girl, what is your intention in associating with Miss Yan Xinning?"

Jian Yue turned her head and looked outside, her tearful face still blank: "I haven't seen Miss Yan Xinning for five years, why should I get involved with her? I'm just telling the truth, isn't that okay?"

Uh!

OK! Very good!

The young man said unhappily: "Who knows what your intentions are?"

Jian Yue sobbed aggrievedly: "When Miss Xin Ning lived in my house, we gave her the best food and the best things. She and my elder brother were the only ones in the family to study. My mother even invited a master from the county to teach her music, chess, calligraphy and painting. I had no complaints about being her little maid. Now she is the daughter of a high and mighty mansion owner. It's as easy for her to crush me to death as it is to crush an ant. Don't say I have no ulterior motives. Even if I did, would I dare?"

This is the logic, but I always feel something is wrong.

She wiped her tears again: "My parents are partial to me. My elder brother has books to read, my younger sister has good food and new clothes to wear, and she doesn't have to work. I am the only one who has nothing to eat or wear, and I have endless work to do every day. I am very careful every day, for fear of making someone unhappy. I was beaten, scolded, and starved."

Jian Yue turned her head sadly, lowered her eyelids, and her eyes were dark.

She didn't expect Yan Xinning to manage her reputation so well. No wonder the original owner couldn't defeat her even after being reborn.

The onlookers sighed again.

I didn't expect this little girl to be so pitiful.

Butler Yan's eyes were deep.

This little girl was playing the victim on the surface, but she was articulate, clear-minded, and sharp-tongued, which was not the way a punching bag should behave. Moreover, she subtly mentioned the treatment of her young lady in the Jian family, and it was unknown whether it was instructed by her parents.

At this moment, Butler Yan was thinking too much. He coughed lightly and reminded Magistrate He: "Mr. Magistrate, you have gone astray."

"Oh, oh..." Magistrate He was embarrassed for a moment. At this moment, he also felt something unusual. He didn't expect that Qian, who was kneeling in the hall, was Miss Yan Xinning's adoptive mother in the countryside. There seemed to be something unusual in this.

Magistrate He tactfully got back to the point and slammed the gavel again: "Silence in the hall! Jian Zhaodi, what did your mother do after she returned?"

Jian Yue answered in detail: "Sir, after my mother entered the yard, she put down the feather duster and went to feed medicine to my father and eldest brother. I went to the kitchen to cook. After the meal was ready, I brought it into the main room. Mother sat at the table to eat, and I served a portion to my father and eldest brother."

"Did your mother use chopsticks?"

"I used it. I held the bowl in my left hand and the chopsticks in my right hand. I also took a bath after the meal."

Lu Jinhua and Zhao Sanniang were filled with excitement.

Lu Jinhua: "My Lord, you heard it, it's really none of our business."

Magistrate He slammed the gavel hard, and Lu Jinhua quickly retracted her neck in fear.

Magistrate He ordered a runner in the hall: "Go and invite a few doctors over, preferably Doctor Qi."

The yamen runner took the order and walked out quickly.

Qian glared at Jian Yue fiercely. Ever since Jian Zhaodi seemed to have changed into a different person, she could no longer control the expression on her face.

The yamen runners drove there in a horse-drawn carriage and soon invited three doctors from the clinic, including Doctor Qi.

Magistrate He briefly explained the situation and asked three doctors to diagnose Qian.

The three doctors carefully felt Qian's pulse and asked her to try to lift her arm, but she said she had no feeling in her right arm and could not lift it.

Then, the three doctors presented their diagnoses one by one in the hall.

The diagnostic conclusions they reached all meant the same thing: the pulse was fine and there was no damage to the arm bones.

Qian was anxious: "My arms are drooping and I can't lift them up. Can't you see? Is this okay?"

The three doctors' faces all darkened: Are you questioning their medical skills?

Zhao Sanniang sneered: "You are just pretending. If you don't want to lift it up, even gods can't do anything about it."

Lu Jinhua: "You are Miss Yan Xinning's adoptive mother, how can you be short of money? You blackmailed your neighbors on your first day here, who will dare to associate with your family in the future?"

Butler Yan frowned: Why do you always bring up the young lady? If Qian is charged with blackmail today, it will also damage the young lady's reputation.

Qian was extremely angry.

"Are you blind? My arms have been drooping since I left home. Do you think I want to pretend to be disabled? I have a son who was born in a young age. How could I ruin his reputation for a little money?"

This sounded reasonable. Zhao Sanniang and Lu Jinhua looked at Jian Yue at the same time. Jian Yue seemed to scratch her neck casually with her fingers.

Zhao Sanniang reacted faster than Lu Jinhua and immediately understood what Jian Yue meant. She suddenly pounced on Qian: "You vicious woman with a heart of a vicious snake. You blackmail us and ruin our reputation. I will strangle you to death." She grabbed Qian's neck.

Lu Jinhua reacted immediately and pounced over fiercely.

The incident happened so suddenly that no one could react. By the time they did, the three women were already fighting.

Snapped!

The gavel nearly cracked the table.

How dare they commit such a crime in court?

The runners on both sides hurried forward to pull the three women apart. Magistrate He was about to order a beating when he heard Zhao Sanniang's excited voice: "Sir, look, her arm is raised."

Swish!

All eyes were focused on Qian's right arm.

Qian was pointing at Lu Jinhua and Zhao Sanniang with her right hand, with a ferocious look on her face.

Damn it! I almost strangled her to death just now. These two thieves are so bold!

Zhao Sanniang's voice made Qian Shi...
