The man followed suit and said, "Exactly. Others begged me to touch them, but I refused. If you weren't so pretty, do you think I would be willing to touch you?"

Zi'er was so angry that she almost laughed. What kind of bastard mother and son are these?

Sure enough, the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked!

This bastard is so shameless, it's all because of his mother who spoiled him.

She didn't hesitate and broke the man's wrist with a snap.

"what!"

The man immediately screamed in pain like a pig being slaughtered!

The old woman was furious. She cursed loudly, "How dare you break my son's wrist? Aren't you afraid that I will sue you?"

Zi'er snorted coldly: "Go ahead and sue me. In the Sheng Dynasty, molesting decent women is punishable by severe punishment. He did something unkind to me before, so it's only natural for me to beat him up!"

Ling'er said impatiently: "Why waste time talking to her? Let's find Madam Feng first. She hasn't come out yet after all this commotion. I'm afraid something must have happened!"

Zi'er nodded and rushed into the house quickly.

However, no matter how they searched the whole house, they couldn't find any trace of Nanny Feng.

It was as if this wasn't her home at all!

But the address she gave was clearly here, there was no way it could be wrong!

Zi'er returned to the man and lifted him up. "Tell me, where's Aunt Feng? Where did she go?"

The man didn't expect that she was actually looking for his wife. Wasn't she working as a wet nurse in someone else's house? He must find her and take her back.

Thinking of this, he said proudly: "Is your young master unable to leave her? If so, you should treat her as a beggar. Give me 500 taels of silver as compensation first, otherwise, I will never reveal her whereabouts!"

Zi'er frowned: "You're trying to blackmail me? You're so capable!"

She quickly threw the man into the water tank and pressed his neck hard.

"Ah, let me go!" The man, suffocated by the water, struggled violently like a trapped beast on the verge of death.

The old woman wanted to rush over to save her son, but Ling'er grabbed her by the back of the neck and said, "If you dare to go over, I will throw you into the water tank too!"

The old woman cried and shouted, "Why are you bullying my son? Isn't my daughter-in-law a wet nurse in your house? How do we know where she is?"

Ling'er was stunned. Could it be that Nanny Feng didn't go home at all?

impossible!

She was clearly very anxious when she went to find Lin Yiwan!

She ignored the old woman and reminded Zi'er: "Look around her husband to see if he has the banknotes that the lady gave him!"

Zi'er pulled the man out of the water and reached into his sleeves.

The man finally caught his breath and didn't care about the pain of his broken hand. He tried desperately to stop Zi'er from searching him.

However, he was still slow after all.

Zi'er not only found the silver note given by Lin Yiwan, but also found a few others. All in all, the total amount was one hundred taels.

She shouted coldly, "Tell me, where did it come from? The banknotes that Nanny Feng brought from the mansion are among them. If you dare to say she hasn't come back, I will pierce your throat with a sword right now!"

The man has been tortured to the point that he no longer looks like a human being. His lips are blue and purple and his wrists are in great pain.

He trembled all over and said, "I'm telling you, I'm telling you, Auntie, please have mercy on me and don't kill me!"

Zi'er urged impatiently: "Stop talking nonsense!"

He quickly replied, "I sold Feng Ying to Yanluo River to be a prostitute. She has milk now, so she doesn't have to breastfeed the child. There are many men who would be interested in her!"

Zi'er was furious. She had never seen such a shameless man!

He still has the nerve to say it!

She raised her hand and slapped him hard on the cheek, causing his mouth to bleed and even knock out a few of his teeth.

The old woman angrily demanded, "You asked my son to speak, and he already said it, so why are you still hitting him? You vicious woman, you're going too far!"

Zi'er sneered, "Am I going too far? Why did you sell Nanny Feng off? No, doesn't she still have a child? Where is her child?"

The old woman stiffened her neck and replied, "That worthless bitch, born to be a debt collector, caught a cold. We gave her several doses of medicine but it didn't get better, so we threw her into the Yanluo River!"

Zi'er's eyes suddenly went dark. This mother and son are really not human!

How could they say it so lightly?

Those were two lives!

She raised her foot and kicked the old woman in the heart, causing her to faint from the pain.

The man was so frightened that he squatted on the ground and shouted, "Don't blame me, it's all my mother's fault. She thought raising a child would cost a lot of food and she was a stinky girl, so she threw her into the river before she died!"

Zi'er wanted to take action, but was stopped by Ling'er.

She said in a hoarse voice: "Zi'er, I know you are very angry, but the most important thing now is to rescue Aunt Feng as soon as possible, otherwise, she will be in danger!"

Zi'er nodded and immediately took a rope to tie up the mother and son.

The two hurried to the Yanluo River and found many prostitutes sitting on the bow of the boat soliciting customers.

Ling'er reminded: "Let's split up and ask each boat to see if there are any new people on board today!"

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a loud crash not far away, followed by someone shouting, "Help! Someone is jumping into the water to commit suicide!"

Zi'er rushed over quickly and jumped into the water without hesitation.

She rescued the woman who fell into the water and found out that it was Nanny Feng.

Her face was pale and ugly at the moment, full of grief and anger.

She was only wearing a thin red undershirt, her whole body curled up into a ball, and her mouth kept making a terrifying giggling sound.

Zi'er quickly wrapped her cloak around her and tried to comfort her: "It's okay, Ling'er and I are here to save you. We'll go back and ask Madam to take care of things for you. We won't let you suffer in vain!"

Nanny Feng finally came to her senses. She broke down and sobbed, "My child is gone. Wuwuwu, what's the point of living?"

Zi'er reached out and wiped away her tears: "Every wrong has its perpetrator, and that mother and son will definitely be punished. Let's go back first!"

Just as she helped Nanny Feng up, she was stopped by a stern-looking Hua Niang. She frowned and said, "Stop! Who told you to leave? She's the Hua Niang on my boat. I bought her with real money. How can you take her away?"

Zi'er suppressed her anger and said, "How much money did you spend? I will compensate you!"

Hua Niang's eyes lit up and she quickly stretched out five fingers.

Zi'er took out fifty taels of silver and handed it to her, but she heard Hua Niang sneer, "Little girl, why are you pretending to be stupid? This is clearly five hundred taels of silver!"

Nanny Feng gritted her teeth and said, "You're talking nonsense! You clearly spent fifty taels of silver to buy it. I saw with my own eyes that you gave it to that damned gambler!"
