Lord Chu’s Wife is Wild

"Little brother, why are you still awake so late?"

Shi Yi, who was standing at the farthest side, stopped, looked at the little boy with raised eyebrows and asked.

The little boy shook his head, "Ahhh!"

He was a mute.

Shi Yi smiled faintly, "It's getting late, it's dangerous outside, go back to sleep quickly."

"Ugh!"

The little boy nodded, as if frightened by something, he hastily closed the door.

Lu Sheng's eyes fell on the gate of this house, and found a door plaque with the word "Chengfu" hanging on the top.

"Let's go."

Chu Sihan also took a special look at the door plaque, then hugged Lu Sheng and walked out of the alley with everyone.

prison.

A woman lay on the fence and yelled at the jailer outside the door: "I've said it all, we didn't kill people, and the Yamen doesn't treat people like this!"

When Lu Sheng and his group came in, they found that there was another man in the cell, who should be the ex-husband of the dead mother.

"My lord, my lord, you came just in time!"

The woman stretched out her hand to grab Fu Xianyun, but she couldn't because her hands were too short.

The woman is fat and swollen, with a flat face, a pair of small eyes, and oil on her face, which is still shining under the candlelight.

However, the clothes and the beaded hairpin on the head seem to be very expensive.

Lu Sheng bought this kind of fabric before, and it cost ten taels of silver a piece, and ordinary villagers were generally reluctant to buy it.

There are also the pearl hairpins stuck on the head, if they are sold off, they may be sold for hundreds of taels.

No wonder he was able to "buy" Tan's husband with such a large sum of money.

Fu Xianyun said blankly: "Whether it's you or not, we won't know until we find the murderer."

"Ouch--"

The woman sat slumped on the ground, slapped the fence and cried, "What kind of life do I have? I didn't kill the person, so why should I suffer this crime?!"

Cai Xue is the daughter of a landlord in Huaxiang Village, and her parents left her a fortune after their death.

The Tan family moved to Huaxiang Village from another town, and they have only been in Huaxiang Village for three years.

Because of Cai Xue's ugly appearance and domineering personality, she was married once, but her husband died not long after, and then she returned to live with her mother's family.

From the first time she saw Tan's husband, she fell in love with him at first sight.

Later, when she learned that Tan's husband was the door-to-door son-in-law, she seduced him openly and secretly.

It's a pity that Tan's family background is good, she is good-looking, and her husband loves her very much, so most of the time he turns a blind eye to Cai Xue's intentional or unintentional teasing.

In a fit of anger, Cai Xue began to put pressure on the Tan family, charging them twice as much rent as others.

At first the Tan family could bear it. Later, Cai Xue intensified her efforts and directly increased the rent by four times.

In order to be able to grow things, although Tan was angry, he still gritted his teeth and paid the rent.

But later, Tan's mother suddenly became seriously ill, and a doctor was invited to see her, who said it was anemia and needed expensive care.

It's either ginseng or various expensive tonics every day. It didn't take long for the Tan family's treasury to bottom out.

Cai Xue was very proud when she heard the news, and then she approached Tan privately and asked her to give her her husband, and she would give her a sum of money to continue treating her mother.

Tan refused at first, until the family ran out of money, but her mother's illness still did not improve. Between loyalty and filial piety, she finally chose filial piety and gave her husband to Cai Xue.

After the husband found out about this matter, the two had a big quarrel. Afterwards, the husband was disheartened and followed Cai Xue back to Cai's mansion.
