Looking at the clear fingerprints on Xie Ying's little feet, Xie Xiu was immediately furious and murderous, wishing he could chop Sun Qingqing with a sword: "What are these fingerprints?"

Sun Qingqing was already pale with fear. Now, looking at the murderous Xie Xiu, she shook her head frantically in denial: "It wasn't me! It really wasn't me!

Brother-in-law, you know, I just had diarrhea and stayed in the toilet for a long time before coming out!

When I pushed the door open, they had already wrapped the child!

It really wasn't me who did this, and I don't know why this happened. Brother-in-law, please believe me!"

Afraid Xie Xiu wouldn't believe her, she turned to look at Tu Yong, grabbed his arm and begged, "Dad, please help me say something!

You know me well. How could I do such a cruel thing? It really wasn't me who did it!"

Xie Ying rolled her eyes when she heard this: [Oh, you didn’t pinch me.

You deliberately covered my face so that my mother wouldn't see it.

He also deliberately threw me into a basin of water and almost drowned me!

Then he deliberately ran to the toilet to give Madam Chu the opportunity to switch things.

Then he pretended not to know and deliberately took the fake goods out to meet people.

In the end, they hid me, fearing that my face would be seen by others, and it almost suffocated me to death.

Wuuwuwu, you are so innocent! Even Dou E didn’t do you any injustice!

Xie Xiu and Tu Yong: “???”

Did they just hear Sakura Sakura's complaints?

Seeing both of them staring at her, Xie Ying couldn't help but roll her eyes again: [Why are you all looking at me? Why don't you arrest Tao'er and interrogate her, and have her confront Sun Qingqing?]

This reminded Tu Yong and Xie Xiu.

Tu Yong got up and left, intending to interrogate Taoer.

But before he had taken a few steps, he saw Tao'er, who had fallen to the ground while supporting Madam Chu.

Seeing her trembling all over and shrinking back when she saw him, how could Tu Yong not understand?

"You heard everything?" He asked Tao'er condescendingly, "What do you say now? What exactly is going on? Is this girl in my arms your wife's daughter?"

Tao'er's face turned pale and she was trembling all over. However, after hearing his last words, she still bravely denied it: "No - she is not - she is Madam Tu's daughter!"

"You still want to lie?" Tu Yongqi's face turned pale and he clenched his right hand into a fist.

Tao'er's face turned pale with fear and her whole body was trembling, but she still bit her lip and refused to tell the truth.

Anyway, she and her wife were the only ones present at the time, and Madam Tu did not see her daughter.

Sun Qingqing didn't dare to tell the truth.

As long as she and her wife refuse to admit it, these people will be helpless!

That's what my wife said, and she believed her. My wife was so smart, she would definitely not lie to her!

Taoer kept encouraging herself in her heart.

Unexpectedly, Xie Xiu sneered, "Father, since she refuses to admit it, just throw the child to death.

It's obvious that the child is born with a deficiency, and it seems unlikely that he will survive.

Rather than leaving her to suffer in this world, it would be better to let her fall to her death, so that she has a chance to be reborn into a good life."

When Tu Yong heard this, his eyes turned cold and he immediately raised the child in his arms high up.

Tao'er was so frightened that her eyes were about to burst: "No - she is Madam Tu's daughter, you can't throw her to death -"

She deliberately shouted very loudly so that Mrs. Tu inside could hear her.

Madam Tu was still in labor. When she heard this, her face turned pale with fright. She gave birth to the baby with a sudden push.

"Whoa whoa-"

The child's cry was not as loud as Xie Ying's, but still louder than Madam Chu's daughter's.

Aunt Li quickly picked up the child and after checking him out, she exclaimed in delight, "Congratulations, Madam Tu, you've given birth to another boy!"

When Tao'er heard the voice inside, she felt a pang of bitterness and resentment: her wife was so kind, why did she have to suffer so much? Not only did she become a fugitive, but the child she had finally saved was born prematurely and was sickly from birth.

Mrs. Tu already had a son and a daughter, and now she gave birth to a pair of healthy twins, a boy and a girl.

God is really unfair!

But before she could continue to grieve, Aunt Li hurried out.

She glanced at Tao'er and the fainted Madam Chu with complicated eyes, then looked at the child in Tu Yong's hands and said solemnly, "Master Tu, please let me see this child.

I was the one who delivered Madam Chu's baby myself. I have seen her daughter and remember what she looked like.

If I see her again, I will definitely recognize her."

Tu Yong didn't really want to kill the child by throwing him down, he just wanted to scare Taoer.

So upon hearing this, he handed the child to Aunt Li.

Aunt Li was the only midwife in the village and had always been a responsible person. She had done a great favor to the Li family, so I believed she wouldn't lie.

Aunt Li took the child and looked at it, and immediately said, "This is Madam Chu's daughter. I remember she was very thin when she was born, and her skin was wrinkled all over. She looked like she was born prematurely.

She has a very obvious birthmark on her body. If Mr. Tu doesn't believe me, he can open the swaddling clothes and examine it for himself."

Tu Yong glanced coldly at Tao'er and Madam Chu, who were huddled on the ground, and said calmly, "There's no need to check. I trust you."

Then he asked Tao'er, "Even now, you still refuse to tell the truth? Why did you switch the children?"

Tao'er bit her lip and refused to speak.

Xie Ying couldn't help but complain in her heart: [Why else could it be?

Madam Chu was a concubine kept by a convicted official. Her husband had offended the imperial concubine of the time and was sentenced to exile with his entire family.

Although Madam Chu was a concubine, the child in her unborn child had to be exiled as well.

She didn't want her own daughter to be exiled to the border, so she naturally found an opportunity to switch the child and let someone else's daughter take the place of the deceased.

After complaining, she even lifted her feet comfortably.

In fact, Xie Ying is not sure whether she has traveled through the book or not. After all, there is no mention of Sun Qingqing or Taoer in the book.

The part where Xu confessed the truth only briefly described her telling the fake daughter her life story, without going into details about the specific process.

Until now, Xie Ying still doesn't know what the name of her adoptive father in this life is.

How can I be sure?

But it doesn’t matter if she’s not sure, it doesn’t affect her from complaining in her heart.

Even if this Madam Chu is different from what is written in the book, she definitely has bad intentions when she wants to switch the children.

It all depends on what her father and grandfather in this life can find out.

Tao'er is obviously easier to deal with than Madam Chu. Now that Madam Chu is unconscious, it is a good time to interrogate Tao'er.

Xie Ying pursed her lips and suddenly felt a little hungry in her stomach. She couldn't help but reach out and touch it.

Because she was too hungry, she didn't notice the sudden gloomy expressions on Xie Xiu and Tu Yong's faces.

Tu Yong noticed her little movements.

He handed Xie Ying to Tu Yong and said, "Father, Yingying seems hungry. I don't know if my wife has milk now. If not, I can only use goat milk for now.

"Father, please take care of Yingying. As for this slave girl, I will interrogate her. It just so happens that I have something to ask her."

Tu Yong carefully held Xie Ying in his arms, then nodded, agreeing to Xie Xiu's proposal.

Xie Xiu grabbed Tao'er's arm and dragged her to the woodshed.

Tao'er was so scared that she wanted to scream, but Xie Xiu picked up the half-wet swaddling clothes on the ground and covered her face with them, making her unable to scream at all.

His expression was ice-cold. When he dragged Tao'er past Sun Qingqing, he looked as cold as a god of death. Sun Qingqing was so frightened that she didn't even dare to fart. She shrank her body and kept backing away, not daring to look at Xie Xiu's face at all.

Xie Ying craned her neck curiously. Seeing Xie Xiu dragging Tao'er further and further away, she suddenly became anxious: "Don't go! Let me see too! I want to eat some melon!"

Xie Xiu listened to her babyish voice and couldn't help but curl his lips in amusement, secretly humming in his heart: Little kid can't watch these, and you are not old enough to eat melons, so just drink your milk obediently.

He dragged Tao'er all the way to the woodshed and threw her on the ground.

When the half-wet swaddling clothes were removed, Tao'er's already shriveled and red face was revealed.

At this moment, her face was full of horror, and she looked at Xie Xiu as if she was looking at a scary monster.

"Don't kill me... Please don't kill me... I know I was wrong... I really know I was wrong... I won't dare to do it again... Please forgive me..."

Xie Xiu looked at her coldly, grabbed her arm, held the back of her hand in front of her, and asked coldly: "What's going on with these scars?"

Tao'er looked at the scratch on the back of her hand and her eyes widened in horror.
