Xiao Wan looked at Li Chunhua and Aunt Wang and felt very comforted. She had done a good deed and had never thought about asking others for gratitude or anything, but at least they should not take advantage of her misfortune.

She just let Li Chunhua work in the workshop. Li Chunhua also worked hard and stopped nagging. Instead, she worked hard to earn money to support her child.

Xiao Wan likes such motivated people, so she is happy to give them some convenience. As long as they can get the work done, she doesn't mind taking her children to eat together.

But the others made Xiao Wan feel a little disappointed, but fortunately most of them were good.

Zhao Wenqing's face was stern as he asked Wang, "Wang, is this true? Tell the truth."

Of course Wang Shi would not admit it. She repeatedly refuted: "Sir, I didn't. I have never seen them at all."

"No, I remember now. A group of people did come to our village that day. I saw that it was Wang who came out to greet them. I thought that the Xiao family had some wealthy relatives."

Some villagers remembered that they had indeed seen a carriage and several men in elegant clothes coming to the village.

"Yes, I've seen it too. It turns out he wanted to harm his own niece. What kind of person is that?"

Wang Shi was on the verge of collapse after hearing this. Wang Tiehua glanced at everyone and said to Zhao Wenqing, "Sir, I have decisive evidence in my hand, proving that Wang Shi was in contact with us."

"Say!"

Wang Tiehua took out a piece of paper from her bosom and handed it to the yamen runner, who then handed it to Zhao Wenqing.

"Sir, this is the name and handprint that Wang left when she entered the city and went to Baili Tower. Please take a look at it and compare it."

Zhao Wenqing nodded. Wang was shocked when she saw this. What was going on? Didn’t Wang Tiehua say that it was Manager Zhou who gave Wang money to do something for her, and when he gave the money, didn’t Manager Zhou keep a receipt?

Wang was illiterate and thought that the owner of the big restaurant would not care about such a small amount of money, so she wrote her name according to what Wang Tiehua had written and also put her fingerprint on it. She thought her plan was perfect, so she didn't think much about it.

Wang Tiehua was a smart man. He was used to doing bad things and was used to leaving a way out for himself. So when he handed the silver to Wang, he acted on his own initiative and pretended that Manager Zhou wanted a promissory note. In fact, he wrote down the whole process and asked Wang to put her fingerprints on it and sign it.

I have to say that Wang Tiehua is not only well-developed in limbs, but also has a smart mind.

After reading the paper, Zhao Wenqing slapped the paperweight and shouted, "Bold Wang! Your entire criminal plan is written here, and you still dare to quibble? Come on, beat them up!"

After saying that, a bailiff came forward and dragged Wang to be beaten with a stick in court. Wang kept shouting that she was innocent and wanted help. Xiao Ting was so scared that she didn't dare to stop him.

Xiao Dacheng also turned his head away and stopped looking. Seeing this, Wang was filled with hatred. She was in such a situation, isolated and helpless, she would definitely not let it go.

Liu and others were very happy to see this. They finally got rid of the resentment they had been holding for so many years.

At this time, Ying Mo also came back, bringing with him a thin old man in his forties with a goatee and a shrewd face. Ying Mo threw the man to the ground.

Zhao Wenqing shouted, "Who are you?"

"Greetings, sir. I am Zhou Qingzhi, the shopkeeper of Baili Tower. I wonder why you sent someone to call me here?" At this time, Shopkeeper Zhou probably knew what had happened, but just pretended that he didn't know and asked innocently.

"Do you know the people kneeling in the hall?"

"Your Excellency, I don't know them. May I ask who they are?"

"Bah, you stinky old man, how dare you pretend not to know your grandfather." Wang Tiehua and others were angry. This old man wanted to get rid of the crime, but it was impossible!

Wang was beaten with five boards. Shocked and frightened, she raised her head with great effort and saw Shopkeeper Zhou. She quickly grabbed his robe and shouted to Zhao Wenqing, "Sir, it was him. We were all in cahoots. He was the one who sent people to follow and kidnap Xiao Wan. Sir, please be vigilant."

Zhao Wenqing then took out the paper given by Wang Tiehua and showed it to Manager Zhou. The five people in the hall and Wang all pointed out that Manager Zhou was the mastermind and accomplice.

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Manager Zhou dared not say another word and bowed his head to confess his guilt.

But he will not surrender so easily. His master will save him. Zhao Wenqing is just a seventh-rank county magistrate and there is nothing to be afraid of.

Just wait and see, the master will protect him. After all, as the master's confidant, I know a lot of secrets.

Zhao Wenqing subsequently sentenced the five to two years in prison and one year of forced labor in a mine. Considering that Wang was an accomplice but his crime was relatively minor, he was sentenced to six months in prison as a warning to others.

As for Manager Zhou, when the old man looked up at him, there seemed to be a hint of provocation. As the mastermind, he should be thrown into prison for three years.

After Zhao Wenqing announced the verdict on the spot, the villagers applauded, and Xiao Wan finally felt relieved. This incident was a lesson and also an experience.
