Su Huaiyi patted Li. He was afraid that the old woman would lose her mind and question Chen Si, and then Guaiguai's secret would be exposed.

Li understood what Su Huaiyi meant. She calmed down and looked coldly at Chen Si who was kneeling on the ground arrogantly.

Magistrate Zheng held the gavel in his hand, his mind turning over and over.

He didn't think that Su Yun's thoughts were necessarily correct, just like what happened with Qingke!

But Chen Si had no contact with the Su family, so he would never do this unless someone instructed him to do so.

Su Xiyue, why is this eleven-year-old child, who can be said to be just a half-grown child, frequently connected with various events?

County Magistrate Zheng couldn't figure it out, and his voice was cold.

"I'm asking again, Chen Si, do you plead guilty?"

"I'm not guilty!" Chen Si was gambling, betting that Zheng Yanjin would not dare to touch him privately because of his brother.

But he had overlooked the other party's upright character.

Magistrate Zheng banged the gavel loudly, his brows and eyes looked serious and upright.

"Someone, use the torture!"

"Zheng Yanjin, how dare you?" Chen Si's eyes widened in disbelief.

Even officials in the capital city had to give him some face when they saw him. How dare he do that to Zheng Yanjin, a mere county magistrate!

"How dare you! You are not allowed to call the county magistrate's name!" the two bailiffs shouted at the same time.

They took the pliers and put them on Chen Si's ten fingers, pulling hard on each side.

The veins on Chen Si's forehead were bulging and his face looked ferocious.

The wound on his back and the pain in his fingers made his face pale without a trace of blood.

"Even if you crush me to death, I am innocent! Those two kids are fine now, I just teased them for fun!"

The two yamen runners who were torturing Chen Si couldn't stand Chen Si's appearance. They said the county magistrate was too soft-hearted! This torture was obviously only used on women!

The two of them tacitly increased their strength.

[This guy is really stubborn! What do you mean my brother and sister are fine? ] Su Yun was furious.

Liu Quanzheng, a broad-minded man, was so angry that his eyes were full of murderous intent. He stepped forward and bowed.

"Mr. County Magistrate, why don't you investigate who Chen Si has been in frequent contact with recently? This way, we can find out who is behind this!"

[My grandfather is really smart. Chen Si must be anxious after hearing this. He has to confess to protect Su Xiyue! ]

Chen Si's expression suddenly changed.

This damn old man, why is he so talkative! No! If Zheng Yanjin investigates, Xiyue will definitely be implicated!

"I admit it, I admit it!"

Magistrate Zheng raised his hand and the two runners stopped the torture.

"Tell me, why did you kidnap the two children from the Su family?"

This sentence left Chen Si stuck.

If the truth is told, it will only implicate Xiyue.

If it's a lie, it doesn't make sense! Chen Si lowered his head, sweat dripping from his chin to the ground.

"Confess the truth quickly!"

The gavel struck Chen Si's heart again and again, sweat dripped down his face, and what he said was half true and half false.

"I love Su Xiyue, but she rejected me in public, so I wanted to threaten her with the Su doll!"

[I really want to jump up and applaud you! Our two families have long been at odds. I guess even without your threats, Su Xiyue would want to kill my family with her own hands. Why don't you threaten Su Xiyue's parents with their lives? This lie is really the worst it can be! ]

[I can guess without any hesitation that Su Xiyue must be frowning all day long, and you found out and decided to capture my brother and sister to please Su Xiyue! ]

Chen Si thought what he said was perfect, and Xiyue did reject him in public.

He is not afraid even if Zheng Yanjin investigates him.

"Do you take me for a fool?"

Magistrate Zheng waved his hand.

"Come here, give me the salt punishment!"

The two yamen runners were holding a bag of coarse salt.

Chen Si struggled, "Zheng Yanjin, didn't I confess? Do you still have any respect for the law? If you touch me, my Chen family will never let you go!"

The two yamen runners did not dare to take action, but looked at County Magistrate Zheng.

Only after getting approval did he sprinkle salt on Chen Si's bleeding wound.

"Ahhh, you old dog Zheng, I'm going to kill you!" Chen Si felt so much pain that it felt like he was being bitten by thousands of ants. He had already lost too much blood and fainted immediately.

His eyes were filled with hatred. "Kill me if you have the guts! I want to see how your Zheng family can protect themselves!"

County Magistrate Zheng knew that Chen Si would never confess, so he spoke loudly.

"Someone, go to the capital to capture Su Xiyue!"

"No one is allowed to go!" Chen Si roared, but the bailiff ignored him and left.

County Magistrate Zheng waved his sleeves and said, "Put Chen Si in jail and try him another day!"

"Zheng, Yan, Jin!" Chen Si bared his teeth and glared, as if he wanted to tear the man to pieces.

After the two yamen runners dragged the man away, his hateful voice could still be heard.

After County Magistrate Zheng left the hall, he walked towards the Su family.

"Once we catch Su Xiyue, we will retrial her together!"

"Thank you, His Excellency the County Magistrate!" Su Huaiyi knelt down but was helped up by County Magistrate Zheng.

"Don't worry, I will give an explanation for this matter!" County Magistrate Zheng promised.

He would send a pigeon and ask Chen Xiu to come and interrogate him personally! Only his own family could force Chen Si to tell the truth!

…

Su Yun and her family went back.

On the way, Su Ruiwen and Su Xingxue woke up. The two kids didn't cry or make a fuss, but smiled at everyone they saw.

Su Yun took out the banknotes and one tael of silver and said, "Look, my brothers and sisters, these are all yours. I'll keep them for you and give them to you when you grow up!"

"Ah~" Su Ruiwen and Su Xingxue danced with joy and laughed widely.

As soon as I got home, I saw Liu Xia and Su Bing waiting at the door.

"Good girl, Wenwen, Xueer!" Liu Xia ran over, holding the three children in her arms.

She was very excited to get it back.

Lee tapped, "Well, Raven and Cher should be hungry!"

"Yeah!" Liu Xia said in a crying voice.

Back in the house, when she fed the two children, they swallowed with big gulps, obviously they were very hungry.

When she saw Raven, Xue’er stopped crying and making a fuss, and even smiled at her.

Liu Xia couldn't hold back any longer and burst into tears.

Su Yun returned home and hid in the house. She took out all ten quilts from the system backpack.

He hid under the quilt, covered his mouth and screamed.

“Never waste food!”

"There's a mouse!"

He turned invisible and used the magic door to get to the prison where Chen Si was locked up.

When Su Yun arrived, the lock of the prison was also unlocked because of the random door.

Su Yun looked at Chen Si, who was sleeping on the ground with his wounds bandaged, and rubbed her hands together.

She first pressed Chen Si's sleeping point to make sure he would not wake up.

Then he clenched his fist and hit Chen Si's wound.

After a while, the white cloth was stained red with blood again.

As if she was still not satisfied, she kicked Chen Si again.

Fortunately, there were not many people in the prison now. Su Yun dragged Chen Sifei out and dragged him to the corridor.

Then he untied the sleeping hole and shouted in a hoarse voice.

"There's a mouse!"

"I would never doubt a woman's tears!"

After shouting, he opened the prison door and returned to the Su family.

The jailer heard the noise and ran over quickly, just in time Chen Si was awakened by the pain and stood up in a daze.

The jailer drew his machete and shouted in panic.

"Someone come quickly, someone is trying to escape from prison!"

Before Chen Si could react, he was beaten severely. After he fainted, the jailer threw him back to the prison...
