Chapter 705 Madam Liu’s fate

Everyone in the family gave Bai Ruozhu a gift. Even Guizhi rushed back from the hot spring village early in the morning and gave Bai Ruozhu a beautiful waistband that she had crocheted by herself.

"What did brother-in-law give you?" Guizhi bumped Ruozhu with his elbow and asked with a smirk.

When she asked, everyone looked over curiously. For some reason, the people in the yard were still afraid of Jiang Yichun and did not dare to talk to him. They always felt that he was not an ordinary person, so they also felt that the gifts he gave must be extraordinary. .

Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Bai Ruozhu reached out to pull out the pocket watch from her neck. Suddenly she thought of Xiao Deng Deng and couldn't help but stop her movements.

"Take Dengdeng for a spin in the yard, otherwise he will cry again when he sees it." Bai Ruozhu said to Jiang Yichun.

Jiang Yichun couldn't help laughing, "That's because your mother is too stingy and won't let him play."

Bai Ruozhu gave him an angry look. She cherished the things he gave her, but he still had any objections?

He hugged Deng Deng and went out. Bai Ruozhu pulled out the pocket watch from his neck and showed it to everyone with a smile, saying that it was a time watch, a thing obtained from the West.

Everyone in the room found it strange, but they couldn't understand it when they opened it. Bai Ruozhu patiently told them how to tell the time. Everyone didn't know the importance of the watch, but they just thought it must be very valuable and praised Jiang Yichun for being so good.

At this time, a guest came, and Xu Huilin's voice came from outside, "Junior brother, I'm here to give your wife a birthday gift. Why don't you treat me to a meal today?"

Bai Ruozhu heard the sound and hurriedly went out to welcome him. Xu Huilin was really straightforward and came with a large roll of cloth. Bai Ruozhu was sweating coldly when she saw it. There were so many pieces of cloth, she couldn't make them all into one piece of clothing, right? It's quite appropriate to make uniform clothes for the servants, but it's just a birthday gift from others, so she can't just throw it away casually.

Jiang Yichun raised his leg and kicked him, "You didn't mean to cause trouble, did you?"

Xu Huilin smiled like a fox again, and whispered to Jiang Yichun: "Don't forget that I helped you a lot."

Jiang Yichun was suffocated and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Senior brother, thank you." Bai Ruozhu asked the guard to help take down the cloth.

Xu Huilin smiled at her, and then said: "Actually, I have something else to do today..."

Before he finished speaking, Bai Ruozhu raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you here to be the peacemaker?"

Xu Huilin was also choked now and didn't know how to explain it.

Bai Ruozhu said lazily: "What happens to you people in the Wu Mansion is your business. Don't involve me, come and snatch my child, bewitch my child, and feed me poison. I can't afford to offend you because I'm so frightened." Isn’t it enough?”

Jiang Yichun also darkened his face and said, "Master is so unreasonable this time."

"Master is also nervous about Junior Sister. He is anxious and that's why he made such a move. After all, Master is only Junior Sister's child. Please understand." Xu Huilin slowed down his tone and slowly advised.

"We only have one child, Deng Deng. Who can understand us? I don't know where Wu Wanqing has gone now? I haven't let go of my bad temper yet." Bai Ruozhu said and snorted coldly, "You guys talk, I'll go busy."

She hugged Dengdeng, shook her head and went back to the house, looking very angry.

Jiang Yichun glared at Xu Huilin displeasedly and said, "It's my wife's birthday today, are you deliberately trying to make her angry? Are your muscles and bones loose?"

The corner of Xu Huilin's mouth twitched, "You are just out of anger for beauty. I didn't say you should forgive Junior Sister. It's just that Master sighs every day and is too embarrassed to talk to you, so he just wanted me to give you a message." , saying that he was indeed too eager and should apologize to you and Ruozhu."

"Master has been kind to me. I will never blame him no matter how he treats me. It's just that he shouldn't have conspired with Tongzheng Shi to treat Ruozhu like that. I can make myself not blame him, but I can't force Ruozhu to let go of this matter. You go back and talk to Master, and I hope he can find Junior Sister soon so that I can ask her for an explanation for my son." Jiang Yichun said with a cruel tone in his tone.

"Junior sister has indeed gone too far this time. She has gone crazy." He lowered his voice as he spoke, "Master is investigating the death of senior brother. It seems that it is really related to junior sister."

Jiang Yichun's eyes dimmed a bit, and he could probably think of the cause of his senior brother's death. When he disappeared in an accident, Wu Wanqing kept looking for him everywhere, which must have aroused the dissatisfaction of the senior brother, and even discovered the secret in her heart. It was probably because of this that Wu Wanqing designed to kill her husband.

Although Wu Wanqing was too sinister, Jiang Yichun felt that this matter had something to do with him, and he felt a little guilty towards his senior brother.

After Xu Huilin left, Jian Qi came to report that the outcome of the Qiao family's case had been concluded.

"It has been found that Lu Wenlin drugged Qiao Qiyu, making him dizzy and went to the casino. He said that Mrs. Liu instigated him to do so. He said that his family did some business under Mrs. Liu's natal name. If If they don't agree to Madam Liu's request, his family will no longer be able to stay in Beiyu City. Mrs. Liu also ordered Li Meiniang to frame Qiao Qiyu. Lu Wenlin's wife is the daughter of a military general, so he dare not take Li Meiniang home. Go, Madam Liu promised to escort Li Meiniang to Lu Wenlin as a concubine after understanding the matter."

Bai Ruozhu nodded, "Is Liu Zongze okay?"

"He was cunning. He said that the jade pendant and the painting were given by Madam Liu. He didn't know anything about it. In the end, he was only accused of lax governance. At most, the censor in Beijing knew about it and wrote a letter to impeach him." Jian Qi showed a look of disdain, "Mrs. Liu took all the blame. She was beaten thirty times in court. She was said to be trying to seize other people's property and she had to do hard labor outside the customs for a year."

"A year has passed in the blink of an eye, so it's easy for her." Bai Ruozhu murmured.

"Master, do you want..." Jian Qi drawled his voice and made gestures on his neck.

Bai Ruozhu shook his head, "No need, maybe the higher ups are already keeping an eye on this matter, so there's no need to get us into trouble because of her."

"Yes." Jian Qi said, "Master Lu ordered the Liu family to compensate the Qiao family for all losses. The Qiao family really does not need to sell their shop. In addition, Lu Wenlin and Li Meiniang were both imprisoned, and Lu Wenlin was dismissed from his job."

This result was within her expectation.

Unexpectedly, in the evening, Master Qiao and Qiao Qiyu came to the door. As soon as they saw Bai Ruozhu, they knelt down and kowtowed to Bai Ruozhu three times. Bai Ruozhu was startled, and when she came to her senses, she hurriedly helped them up and said, "Aren't you offending me by doing this great gift?"

"Miss Bai, we all know that without your help, this lawsuit would not have been so easy to figure out. If you hadn't reminded us that day, we might not have known that we were being plotted, and my son's life would have been ruined. ." Master Qiao said gratefully.
