Yunian had nowhere to run. Fortunately, he hadn't said the wrong thing just now. He was able to put on a polite demeanor and say, "Are you treating the law like a joke? Someone, take the suspect into custody and we'll have the trial tomorrow."

Qingshi Town also has a special place for handling cases.

Jiang Yunxiao rejected the invitation of several people, picked up Yue Niang on his back, and strode away in the astonished eyes of several people. Of course, two people from the yamen followed him from a distance.

The concern in Jiang Yunxiao's eyes was genuine: "I told you to practice martial arts well, but you didn't. You can't even beat a dog."

Suddenly, there was a cool feeling on the back of my neck, dripping one drop after another: "Jiang Yunxiao, thank you for pulling me out of the darkness again and again."

"Don't cry, little crybaby. I guess you and I knew each other in a past life. Maybe I owe you a debt."

Yue Niang looked at Jiang Yunxiao, who was unusually gentle, and said seriously, "Yes, we knew each other in our previous life."

Jiang Yunxiao didn't dwell on the strange conversation and continued, "But what if I hadn't discovered you today?"

Yue Niang was ready to face death: "If no one saves me, then I will fight him to the death. Anyway, I have never had anything. Being able to meet you has fulfilled one of my wishes. Grandmother will definitely take good care of her."

After a short rest, he asked Jiang Yunxiao doubtfully, "But how did you know I was in danger?"

Jiang Yunxiao replied, "Because not long after you left, that Chalcedony came to your house looking for you. She said she didn't ask you out for a chat at all."

She vaguely felt that something was not right, and a terrible thought emerged in Yue Niang's mind: Could it be that she was just a pawn?

"Where is Boss Yu now?"

"It's still at your house. I was keeping an eye on it and asked Zhao Xiaoming's men to keep an eye on it."

When the two returned home, Nanshan Village was deathly quiet and Ruoyan was already waiting at the door.

"Yue Niang, you are finally back."

The courtyard gate was wide open, and several young and strong men in the village were surrounding the wall tightly, and there were also many villagers.

Now Yue Niang is the mainstay of the livelihood of the villagers in Nanshan Village. After hearing Zhao Xiaoming's exaggerated words, they all spontaneously organized themselves to keep an eye on the chalcedony.

Seeing Jiang Yunxiao carrying Yue Niang over, Zhao Xiaoming took the lead and they all came over: "Yue Niang."

The joy of the group was beyond words.

Yue Niang got down from Jiang Yunxiao's back, her small body wrapped in Jiang Yunxiao's thick outer robe, and a trace of the murderous aura of a martial artist flashed across her.

After a moment, she regained her composure and soothed the restless villagers: "Yue Niang thanks all the uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters."

Mrs. Zhu was the warmest-hearted one: "Why thank me? This is what we should do. Now that you're back, Miss Fu, let's go first. We haven't even planned for dinner yet."

After Mrs. Zhu said this, everyone left with peace of mind.

Jiang Yunxiao casually said, "Is your village harmonious now?"

Yue Niang smiled: "Really? It's just a matter of profit."

Jiang Yunxiao didn't say anything else, but Yue Niang could clearly feel that his mood was getting lower.

Yucui drank her tea calmly. The commotion just now did not attract her attention, and she didn't even look at it.

Yue Niang walked to the opposite side of her and poured herself a glass.

Jiang Yunxiao stood behind Yue Niang like a bodyguard with a cold expression. Yue Niang felt a little uncomfortable, but also brave.

At this time, Yu Sui smiled and said the first sentence: "I said that nothing would happen, Master Jiang, you may not be too nervous."

Jiang Yunxiao glanced at her and immediately got angry: "You woman..."

When they were about to fight, Yue Niang hurried to comfort Jiang Yunxiao: "Brother Yunxiao, please don't do it. But Sister Yu Sui, aren't you in a hurry to go home? Mr. Ding has been arrested by the Jade Magistrate."

Chalcedony just said lightly: "Oh, so what?"

This made Yue Niang even more convinced that she was being used and that everything was planned by Yu Sui.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He smashed the teacup to the ground and said, "Boss Yu, why are you trying to harm me?"

Yu Sui took a sip of tea carefully: "I thought you, Yue Niang, were as free and easy as Shopkeeper Yu."

"Does being free and easy mean being insulted by your husband?"

Yu Sui glanced at Jiang Yunxiao, Zhao Xiaoming and the others behind Yue Niang and said, "I want to talk to you alone."

Jiang Yunxiao was the first to disagree: "You black-hearted couple, don't even think about it."

Yu Sui also retreated: "Then Miss Ruoyan will stay, don't worry, I will take these two maids with me. Also, I have a request for Miss Fu now, I will not harm her."

Yue Niang agreed, and Jiang Yunxiao was very disappointed: "If she kills you, I won't come to collect your body." He went out angrily and slammed the door.

Yu Sui breathed a sigh of relief and began to talk to himself: "What happened today was indeed my plan. I deliberately gave him my seal. I estimated that I could come to your house to ask for help when I could save you. I also wrote a letter to call my father and asked him to take Hao'er to Yunzhou to live for a few days."

Yue Niang suddenly realized: "You deliberately let them see it, but why me?"

"Because I want to do business with you."

"Business?"

"Although His Majesty doesn't value legitimate wives, he does value virtuous people and hates adultery and plunder. He is a wise ruler. Now that this has reached the young master, he knows about it. My father naturally can't favor that fool, but he is also my father's chosen son-in-law. Whether openly or secretly, he will definitely seek you to resolve this privately."

A trace of sadness suddenly arose in Yue Niang's heart: "So, the business you mentioned?"

"Five hundred acres of spice garden, all yours, accept the settlement."

Five hundred acres?!

Yu Sui continued slowly, "Think about it. Nothing much actually happened today. My father is the prefect, and that idiot has some status in Qingshi Town. This is the best offer you can get. If you insist on fighting to the end, even if he goes to jail, he will still be Mr. Ding after he comes out in a few years. Think about it yourself."

"What about you? What can you get? I really don't dare to think."

"Now that I've spoken frankly, all I want is the Ding family's fortune."

Ruoyan's hands were tightly placed on Yue Niang's shoulders.

Yue Niang gathered her emotions and said, "Eight hundred acres."

Seeing that she had figured it out, Yuzui smiled and agreed: "Deal."

Yucui walked away with a twist of his waist, and gave Ruoyan a meaningful look, which made Ruoyan shiver.

After the noise behind her died down, Yue Niang leaned against Ruoyan's belly and said, "I feel like a lamb on the chopping board."

Think about it carefully, if I didn’t have the help of Erya’s family and Jiang Yunxiao, would I still be alive now?

Ruoyan touched Yue Niang's head and said coldly, "Yue Niang, even if you miss one move, it's still a mistake."

Yue Niang nodded dully: "Yes, even if the chess game is one step behind, it is still a mistake."

At this time, several people outside the door also rushed in.

Jiang Yunxiao looked at Yue Niang and said, "What's wrong? Did that woman bully you? I'll go and deal with her."

"Don't go yet, take your time." Yue Niang raised her head and a smile flashed across her lips.

Yu Sui was willing to release all 800 acres, definitely because of Yue Niang's background, and the most important thing now was to accumulate strength.

Don't rush to counterattack, but you will definitely counterattack.
