Transmigrating to a Female-Dominated World: Pampering My Little Husband

Liu Hongxia slammed her hand on the table and stood up, "Impossible, my Aning is so sensible and obedient."

How could she possibly instigate the Shen family to commit murder!

She knows her own son's temperament well!

Although Liu Ning wasn't exactly a kind-hearted person, she would never instigate murder.

"Exactly, exactly! Although Liu Ning sometimes speaks harshly, who can really say for sure?"

"Ahem, this standoff won't take much time, and it will clear Liu Ning's name."

Liu Ning was used to being arrogant in Qingxi Village because he was the village chief's son, and some people couldn't stand it.

"We did see Liu Ning talking to Shen Shi at noon today."

"I don't know what they said, but Shen left in a hurry..."

"Yes, yes, let him die knowing why!"

With so many people watching, if I were to obstruct them, it would only further demonstrate that it was Liu Ning's fault.

Liu Hongxia frowned and said calmly to Liu Jingyao, "Ayao, call your brother here!"

How fascinating! Han Zixuan secretly followed them, eager to see how the Liu family would prove their innocence under these circumstances.

It was inappropriate for an unmarried young man like him to appear on such an occasion.

But now that his reputation is at stake, he has no choice but to bring the person here!

Liu Jingyao nodded and returned home, where Liu Ning was putting on her makeup in front of the mirror.

"Hmph, this skinny monkey actually betrayed himself so easily."

"It's infuriating! Someone like her wants to marry me? She's dreaming!"

"And the Shen family actually let that bitch Shen Qingxi go so easily. They're all idiots!"

He angrily slammed the comb onto the table; it seemed he would have to think of another way!

Just as I was thinking, I suddenly heard a knock on the door. "Ah Ning, it's me, open the door!"

Hearing that it was her sister, Liu Ning quickly opened the door. "Sister, what are you doing here? Didn't you say there was something going on in the village? Why are you back so soon?"

Liu Jingyao's face turned ugly as she questioned Liu Ning, "Did you go to see the Shen family this afternoon?"

A look of panic flashed in Liu Ning's eyes, surprised that Liu Jingyao knew.

However, she still stubbornly insisted innocently, "Sister, I don't know? I don't know what you're talking about?"

Could tonight's events be related to the Shen family? That idiot must be spouting nonsense!

Liu Jingyao frowned and said in an unfriendly tone, "What time is it, and you're still lying to me!"

Do you know what happened tonight? The Shen family murdered their own wife tonight!

"He confessed that you were the one who gave him the idea. Tell me what exactly happened!"

She truly couldn't understand why her younger brother had to cause trouble!

Liu Ning was shocked upon hearing this and hurriedly waved her hands to explain, "I...I...no, I didn't give him any ideas about killing someone!"

"I...I just told him a few words to...go to...Shen Qingxi and Han Zixuan to ask for money, to cause some trouble, that's all, I didn't tell him to kill anyone!"

He spilled the beans in just a few words, and Han Zixuan gave a cold laugh after hearing it.

This Liu Ning is really clever; she even knows how to use someone else to do her dirty work.

Liu Ning felt a surge of resentment; this Shen family dared to frame him.

How despicable! "Sister, you know I don't have that kind of courage!"

Liu Jingyao knew, of course, that he didn't have the guts, but now that someone had died, Liu Ning would certainly not escape either!

"Haven't you learned your lesson from last time? Didn't I tell you to behave yourself and not mess with that Han guy and Shen Qingxi?"

After returning from the county town, Liu Jingyao resolved to study diligently and make a name for herself in the imperial examinations in February.

Then he went back to save face and specifically told Liu Ning to behave herself.

Unexpectedly, he completely ignored what I said.

They encouraged the Shen family to cause trouble, and it would have been fine if the matter had been resolved, but now it has even involved a life!

If it's because of him that her imperial examination was affected.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Frightened, she hid back and cautiously reached for Liu Ningyao's sleeve.

"Sister, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to!"

I truly did not instigate Shen to commit murder.

Liu Jingyao flicked her sleeve and slapped Liu Ning across the face.

“What’s the use of telling me this? Shen is going to be drowned for murdering his wife, but he claims it was his idea.”

Remember, never admit it under any circumstances.

If you implicate the Liu family, you can expect to be expelled from the Liu family!

This is the last resort; we must not let it affect her imperial examinations under any circumstances.

For the imperial examinations, candidates had to have a clean family background within three generations; otherwise, relatives or clansmen would be implicated in criminal activities.

Then she will never be able to participate in the imperial examinations for the rest of her life!

Liu Ning was even more frightened, covering his face with one hand. He didn't want to be abandoned. "Sister, I was wrong, I promise I won't admit it!"

Sister, you and Mother should think of something too.

"Whatever you want to do, just deny it to the death. When we get to the ancestral hall, we'll explain everything word by word."

I believe you clearly understand the difference between spreading rumors and instigating murder!

Liu Jingyao explained all the pros and cons to Liu Ning.

Liu Ning nodded hurriedly, "Okay...okay...I understand!"

The two discussed it for a while before leaving for the ancestral hall. "Remember everything I just said!"

Liu Ning nodded quickly, "I...I know!"

The people in the ancestral hall finally saw the two of them. Liu Jingyao returned to Liu Hongxia's side with a calm expression.

Liu Ning stood in the center of the ancestral hall, and Shen looked at him with excitement!

Liu Hongxia asked calmly, "Liu Ning, did Shen say that his killing of his wife today was your idea?"

Liu Ning waved her hand calmly, "We only exchanged a few words today. I did not order the Shen family to kill anyone!"

Shen sneered, "Liu Ning, you're the one who came up with this idea for me today, don't you admit it?"

Liu Ning blinked lightly, "Shen family, I was just saying that your family is having a hard time."

"They looked so pitiful. They just sent you to Qingshan Village to find Shen Qingxi, and didn't say anything else!"

The surrounding villagers were talking amongst themselves, "Shen Qingxi? Wasn't he sold by the Shen family a long time ago? The contract was already signed!"

They even have the nerve to ask people for money, it's unbelievable..."

"Who can argue with that? That Shen family is truly a despicable scoundrel!"

Liu Hongxia breathed a sigh of relief. "Ms. Shen, do you have anything else to say?"

"Bullshit! You think you can clear your name so easily? You're covering for someone!"

"You think you can pin all the blame on me to protect your Liu family? Impossible!"

He had to rely on the Liu family and find out more about the situation later.

Liu Ning, trembling with anger, pointed at Shen Shi and said, "You're lying! How could I have instigated you to kill someone!"

"You madman, how dare you slander me! Drown in the pond immediately!"

The villagers who were watching began to have doubts about the two of them.

Shen began to cry out, "Liu Hongxia, if you drown me, you will be destroying the evidence!"

Villagers of Qingxi Village, look at this! This is our village chief.

They want to drown me just to clear their name! How many more people like me will be wrongly accused in the future?

"If you want me to drown myself, then I'll take Liu Ning with me so we can keep each other company on the journey."

The crowd exchanged bewildered glances, all looking at Liu Hongxia with suspicion.

Liu Jingyao's brows were so furrowed they could trap a fly.

Shen did indeed kill someone, and now that her exams are approaching, she cannot send the perpetrator to the authorities, making it a truly difficult decision.

Han Zixuan was watching the spectacle with great interest, almost as if she had a handful of melon seeds in her hand.

Putting aside their personal grudges for now, even if Shen and Liu Ning were to strangle each other, it would be a situation where they could kill each other.

If I were to take action, I would not only solve the problem myself, but I would also solve the problem for others!
