Three days later, under the scorching sun, the students hurriedly returned to their rooms after finishing their classes.

The facilities at Feng Hua Academy were excellent; each room had a basin of ice to help people cool off in the summer.

Xiao Tuantuan and the others went to the grove.

"I received a letter from my brother yesterday, asking me to meet him again in the grove today," Liu Yuanyuan said softly. "I'll go there first."

Han Weiwei nodded: "Go ahead, I've already made all the arrangements. Remember to ask the questions that Tuantuan taught you."

Liu Yuanyuan responded and walked forward. After taking a dozen steps, she stopped, turned around to look at the three people behind her, and smiled, "Thank you."

"Alright, go on ahead." Han Weiwei waved her hand, feeling unbearably hot.

He Lin, standing to the side, looked around and said, "Su Ling hasn't come to school for three days."

"Hmph, would she dare?" Han Weiwei rolled her eyes, raised her chin, and said contemptuously, "Madam Liu has been arrested, she must know that things have been exposed, how could she dare to come to the school? But even if she doesn't come, I don't intend to let her go!"

"They're here!" Xiao Tuantuan whispered, and the group hid.

Liu Yuanyuan stared at Liu Zhengyu, dressed in all black, her hands clutching her handkerchief tightly. He was clearly her own brother, yet he consistently sided with Sun Xiaoli! She had no idea what she had done wrong…

"Well, have you thought it through?" Liu Zhengyu said impatiently as soon as he saw Liu Yuanyuan. "Have you thought this through? That's your own mother. If you don't agree, your mother will suffer!"

Liu Yuanyuan was silent for a moment, then slowly raised her head: "Brother, that's your mother too, aren't you going to save her?"

Liu Zhengyu frowned: "How can I save them? I have no way to help them!"

"Why can't you do it?" Liu Yuanyuan said, enunciating each word clearly. "Go tell the prefect that you and Sun Xiaoli plotted to frame Miss Han, ruin her reputation, and then marry her! You had your mother bribe Su Ling to steal Miss Han's personal ornaments, thus spreading rumors of your affair and forcing Miss Han to marry you! Go..."

"Alright! That's enough!" Liu Zhengyu's face showed anger. "Why are you saying all this? Besides, I'm the only man in the Liu family. How can I go to jail!"

"So, you admit that you did all these things?" Liu Yuanyuan took a step forward. "You can't go to jail, but I can? You know how harsh this world is on women. If I go to jail, my reputation will be ruined. How will I face people in the future?"

Liu Zhengyu said dismissively, "Yes, I did it, so what? I did it all for the Liu family! If I had married Han Weiwei, wouldn't you have benefited too? Why are you blaming me now!"

"Heh." Liu Yuanyuan sneered, "For the Liu family? Then you killed the woman who picked flowers on West Street, also for the Liu family?"

"What nonsense are you spouting!" Liu Zhengyu rebuked in a deep voice, then looked around to make sure no one was watching before continuing, "That flower-picking girl is a complete idiot! If she were with me, she'd be set for life! She doesn't want to, fine, but she even wants to report me to the authorities. How could I let Lord Han misunderstand me..."

"So you killed her." Liu Yuanyuan dug her fingers into her flesh, saying each word clearly, "Not only the flower girl, but also her sister, you killed them all!"

Liu Zhengyu was startled and patted his chest: "Why are you shouting so loudly? Yes, I killed them both, but I didn't do it on purpose. Who knew they would be so fierce!"

Liu Yuanyuan closed her eyes and continued, "Your mother cleaned up all of this for you. Now that your mother has been arrested, it's your turn as her son to clean up the mess."

"What do you mean?" Liu Zhengyu grabbed Liu Yuanyuan's arm and glared at her. "You don't want to take care of your mother anymore?"

How could you be so heartless!

Liu Yuanyuan gave a bitter laugh: "Heartless? When my cousin burned me, did Mother care about me at all? When you hit me on the forehead with a stone, Mother blamed me for not watching where I was going. The handkerchief I painstakingly embroidered for Mother was just thrown to the servants!"

"Does Mother really treat me like a daughter?"

Liu Zhengyu frowned and said impatiently, "What's the point of saying all this now? You have to save her whether you want to or not! If you don't go yourself, I'll report you to the government office tomorrow!"

"Whom are you going to report?" Lord Han's voice came from over.

Liu Zhengyu turned around abruptly and saw Lord Han, County Magistrate Wang, and the yamen runners.

Liu Zhengyu staggered, his face deathly pale: "Sir, what are you doing here?"

Liu Zhengyu panicked; he had no idea how much of what these adults had overheard!

It's all Liu Yuanyuan's fault! She's the one who ruined everything!

Thinking of this, Liu Zhengyu glared fiercely at Liu Yuanyuan.

"Take him away!" At Lord Han's command, the constables quickly restrained Liu Zhengyu!

Liu Zhengyu was stunned. It took him a long time to react after being dragged away by the constables: "Save me! Yuanyuan! Save me!"

"father!"

Han Weiwei ran out: "Dad, you heard everything! You can't forgive him so easily!"

Lord Han stroked his beard, his eyes filled with doting affection as he looked at Han Weiwei: "A doting mother spoils her son!"

After sighing, Lord Han spoke with Han Weiwei for a while before leaving with his entourage.

As soon as I went outside, I saw Sun Xiaoli waiting there.

"Your Honor! Seize her! She's the murderer who killed my son!" the county magistrate suddenly shouted, rushing to Sun Xiaoli and grabbing her hair. "Your Honor, you must do justice for me!"

Sun Xiaoli was stunned, but the pain brought her back to her senses: "Help! I didn't! It hurts so much... Cousin, help me!"

Liu Zhengyu, who had been arrested, was preoccupied with his own safety, but after hearing the county magistrate's words, he still spoke up: "My cousin is so frail, how could she kill someone! Besides, my cousin doesn't even know your son!"

The county magistrate shouted, "How could she not know my son, Wang Fugui? They were engaged in a secret marriage, but my son refused to marry her, so she killed him!"

"What?" Liu Zhengyu's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.

Sun Xiaoli's face turned deathly pale: "I didn't, I didn't, I..."

"Take them back." Lord Han rubbed his temples, looked at the crowd that had gathered, and immediately said, "We'll talk about it back home!"

Lord Han acted swiftly, and upon returning, he immediately convened court to hear the case.

Knowing that this matter concerned the Liu family, the teacher summoned Liu Yuanyuan and had her accompany Master Liu to the courtroom.

"I really want to watch it!" Han Weiwei sighed. "Unfortunately, I've asked for leave too many times, and the teachers won't let me take leave anymore."

"I have a plan." Xiao Tuantuan smiled slyly and waved to Han Weiwei and He Lin. "Let's climb over the wall and get out."

The three arrived at the small bamboo grove, and Xiao Tuantuan was the first to climb up, which made Han Weiwei and He Lin exclaim in amazement.

From the top of the wall, Xiao Tuantuan waved towards them, urging them to come up quickly!

"No way! We can't climb walls..." He Lin said helplessly, "Is there any other way?"

Xiao Tuantuan thought for a moment, then pointed to the side: "There's a dog hole over there, do you want to crawl through it?"

There's no way I could crawl through a dog hole.

but!

Han Weiwei took a deep breath: "Xiao Tuantuan! We're friends! Friends should crawl through the dog hole together, so you come down too!"

Xiao Tuantuan: ? ? ?

Okay...

Xiao Tuantuan jumped down from the wall with utter helplessness and followed Han Weiwei toward the dog hole, but...

"Tuantuan, why aren't you moving?" He Lin asked curiously.

Xiao Tuantuan's face flushed red. How could she forget that she had eaten a lot these days in order to gain weight!

so……

"I'm stuck!" Xiao Tuantuan said, frustrated.
