Quick Wear: After Revenge, I and the Immortal King Renew Our Relationship

In the court, Qin Yue'e, who was beaten with ten boards for disturbing the court, lay on the ground, her face pale with pain, cold sweat pouring down, and sobbing softly.

"Qin! Let me ask you again, is what the plaintiff said true?" Han Xu, who had been transferred to the capital, asked seriously.

Qin Yue'e shuddered as the gavel struck, and she choked with sobs, "Sir, I am innocent!"

"The evidence presented by the plaintiff has been verified by several tailors and embroiderers at Yunshanfang, confirming that it was indeed sold by your family. According to them, Yunshanfang manufactures garments in-house, from weaving and dyeing, without any other company involved. How could they have wronged you?"

A flash of inspiration flashed through Qin Yue'e's mind, as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw, "My lord, this batch of cloth was not dyed by my family, but was bought from outside. It must be their fault, it has nothing to do with me!"

"How to prove it?"

"Yes, yes!" Qin Yue'e said excitedly, "My guy found the source of the goods, he can prove it!"

"What's that man's name? Call him to the classroom for questioning!"

Qin Yue'e felt like her neck was being strangled. She didn't know the man's name, and his talk of promoting him was just empty talk. She didn't take it seriously at all.

Seeing her hesitation, Han Xu narrowed his eyes and asked, "Are you telling lies to deceive me?"

"No, no!" Qin Yue'e explained hurriedly. She looked anxiously at the tailor kneeling beside her and said earnestly, "You know, you were there at the time. You saw him! What's his name?"

The tailor's face turned grim as he thought of something. "Are you talking about Xiao Qi? But half a month ago, Xiao Qi said that an elder in his family was seriously ill and he passed away in a hurry. He didn't even take his wages for those few days."

Qin Yue'e had a bad feeling, "Where is his home?"

"He was just an ordinary, insignificant young man. How could anyone have thought to ask about his family situation? He just knew he came from out of town to make a living."

Qin Yue'e was so angry that she almost fainted on the spot. How could there be so many coincidences? She finally realized that she was set up and Xiaoqi was an accomplice.

But at that time, in order to reduce trouble, she only let Xiaoqi be responsible for this matter, and asked him not to make it public. She brought the goods back quietly and no one else knew about it, so no one could prove her innocence. She really had no way to defend herself this time!

What should I do? Qin Yue'e collapsed to the ground.

At this time, Wang Dafu arrived at the scene and asked for a meeting. After being granted permission, he walked in without even looking at Qin Yue'e, who had rekindled her hope, but knelt on the ground with a thud.

"Your Excellency, I am Wang Dafu, the owner of Yunshanfang, and also Qin's husband. I was so busy that I handed Yunshanfang over to my humble wife. I never imagined that her lack of knowledge and carelessness would lead to such a disaster."

He solemnly promised, "I am willing to bear the consequences. From now on, I will recover these inferior clothes, hire the best doctors to treat them, and do my best to compensate the victims for their losses."

Initially, the victims were unhappy when they heard that he attributed an act that could be defined as murder for money to a mere crime of neglect of discipline. However, when they heard him propose a solution so sincerely, their resentment was alleviated a little.

An Yan looked at Wang Dafu's mouth. He could make the dead look alive. No wonder he was so successful in business in his previous life. It was a pity that the victims were not only ordinary people, but also wealthy young ladies.

How could they let it go when their daughter, who was being raised in the boudoir and was about to get married, suddenly met with misfortune?

Finally, Han Xu made the final decision, "Since that's the case, Shopkeeper Wang will go ahead and do everything you said and obtain the forgiveness of all the victims. Qin will be temporarily imprisoned and we will leave the court!"

Qin Yue'e was terrified. Why was she locked up even after paying compensation? "Boss, save me! I didn't mean it! Save me!" She was taken away while howling.

Wang Dafu lowered his head with a fierce look on his face, but when he looked up, it was full of regret and arrogance. He tried his best to handle the matter properly and begged for forgiveness humbly.

The victims received huge compensation and medicine, and after the doctor's repeated assurances that they could recover, most of them stopped pursuing the matter.

However, Wang Dafu looked through the custom records and found that the remaining families were all daughters of officials in Beijing. Although they were not particularly high-ranking officials, he, a mere businessman, could not afford to offend them. He had no choice but to find a way to compensate them.

His path to success at Guodu was completely over before it even took off! He might even lose all his savings and the income from his other stores.

It's not that he didn't think about finding the real murderer who framed them. After this incident, Yunshanfang's business plummeted, and the beneficiaries were other cloth shops and clothing stores.

He didn't know whether they were working together or one of them was doing it alone. He only knew that any store that could take root in the city must have a backer, and he still couldn't afford to offend them.

He needs a backer, a strong backer to help him make a comeback.

At this time, Wang Xiaobao rushed in and shouted without seeing anyone, "Mom, give me some money, I want to buy the Cricket King!" When he saw that it was his father, it was too late to shut up.

Wang Dafu was so angry that he wanted to die. This spendthrift guy only knew how to ask for money. It was all because of that stupid woman who spoiled him. He did nothing all day long and even bought crickets!

He was so angry that he needed to vent, so he picked up a feather duster, grabbed Wang Xiaobao, who was unable to escape, pulled down his pants, and beat him up.

Wang Xiaobao cried heart-wrenchingly, tears streaming down his face, and shouted for his mother to help him. But this made Wang Dafu even angrier, and he hit him harder. For a while, he was busy beating him, and when his anger subsided a little, his hands were covered in blood. He looked at Wang Xiaobao and saw that he was almost dead.

Wang Dafu was panicked and quickly took Wang Xiaobao to see a doctor.

Because Wang Xiaobao was beaten so badly this time, he developed a high fever. It took him several days to get over the fever. But from then on, he was afraid of Wang Dafu and was afraid to get close to him.

Wang Dafu felt guilty, distressed and tired after seeing this.

In the past few months, Wang Dafu sold his property and shop, dismissed his servants, saved money, and almost lost everything before he settled the matter.

Qin Yue'e was finally released. She suffered a lot in prison. Wang Dafu was angry that she brought disaster to his family, and he was unwilling and had no money to take care of them.

The jailer received certain instructions and deliberately made things difficult for her. She was either being bullied or on the way to being bullied.

She walked to the door and found that no one came to pick her up, so she could only hunch over and go home dejectedly.

When she returned home, Qin Yue'e was faced with an empty house, her husband with gray hair and a dark face who hated her, and her son who was lying on the bed and unable to get up.

She was in tears and felt extremely distressed. She didn't have the confidence to ask her son why he had become like this. She could only take on the housework and serve them more and more humbly.
