[If you really want to see, then I'll show you.] I don't know what Xiangxiang did, but the wind blew up, the door opened, and her veil was lifted.
The face was revealed, and it was really ugly, extremely ugly.
"Oh my god, how could this be? What is that thing..." Ji Yingying couldn't help but say. It wasn't that she was disrespectful, but that face was just too disrespectful.
It was done by an enemy.
[Rivals? Did the families of the dead men do it?]
Yes, that's right. It was done by a woman named Feng Qin. She seduced her husband, swindled him out of their life-saving money, and then dumped him at their doorstep after he died. Feng Qin still had to earn money to support her family and endure abuse from the man's family. Later, she accidentally found out that it was Feng Qin who did it.
That's why they targeted her, hiring a Taoist priest to use evil magic to disfigure her, so she could stop going out and deceiving people.
At first, the woman was worried about her face, but gradually she stopped worrying because as long as she wore a veil and no one could see it, no one would refuse to go with her.
Did she manage to lure people away while committing the crime wearing a veil?
[Not yet, but Feng Qin knows she's continuing to scam people and is about to spend money, even her own life savings, to ruin this woman.]
How to say it?
[There was supposed to be an assassination attempt later, to kill that woman, but now that the wind has blown off her veil, she's run out and is probably in more danger.]
"So what if it's dangerous? It's not unreasonable for them to want her dead; they just want revenge."
[Revenge? Not really. Feng Qin is dying too. That man's family won't let her remarry and forces her to work as a prostitute to earn money. In short, she's riddled with illnesses.]
[All she wants now is to drag that woman and her man's entire family into hell before she dies.]
[Not bad, not bad. He's a capable person. Taking everyone down is the right choice.]
However, that's not ideal either. The law still applies. I'll have Rong Er make the trip.
Ji Yingying immediately instructed Xiangxiang to exchange the folded document, and at the same time, she told Rong Er to rescue the woman and Feng Qin.
Rong Er immediately left. As soon as he was gone, Ji Yingying drank a glass of cola and asked, "What other gossip is there?"
There were many people outside, and many of them knew that Ji Yingying had come to the restaurant; they were all there to watch the drama unfold.
Eating food and melon at the same time, in Ji Yingying's words, it is really easy to digest!
Eating slowly and having fun makes it easy to digest food, right?
Yes, the man's name was Xiaoming. He was a hunter who was originally destitute and had nothing in his house. One day, he went hunting in the mountains with his friend and encountered a large tiger. He was timid and ran away after losing his belongings.
[In the end, his friend fought the tiger and won, but he was also dying. For money, Xiaoming abandoned his friend to be devoured by wild animals, while he brought the tiger back to sell, making a considerable sum. Later, his friend's family came looking for him and kept harassing him, and he was afraid that people would find out.]
[If people found out, his good days would be over. So, on a clear, quiet night, Xiaoming killed the entire family and then set the house on fire.]
The houses in that village were connected, and not only were the neighboring houses burned down, but several old men who couldn't escape were also burned to death. No one in the village reported it to the authorities, and it was all suppressed. The village chief just thought it was bad luck, little did he know that he was the one who had committed the crime.
"Tell me, how many lives are on your hands?" Ji Yingying took a bite of pig's blood. The pig's blood, cooked the way she described, was really delicious.
Moreover, Fu Yunjie even brought up some venison, rabbit meat, and fox meat.
She had never eaten this fox meat before. After taking two bites, she found that it tasted really good, probably because it was processed very well.
[There were probably fifteen or sixteen, because he killed two more people later. The two were a young lady and her maid from a wealthy family. The young lady was returning to the capital to visit relatives when she met him. Knowing that he was also going to the capital, they got together. Little did she know that he coveted her beauty.]
[She was murdered so young and beautiful, and at the same time, she deceived the man's servant, saying she had eloped with him. Girls from wealthy families aren't normal people; when a child goes missing, they don't dare to look for him, and he's been dead for years without anyone knowing.]
Speaking of which, I'm actually hoping that women can be given official positions soon. How can this world exist without girls? Sometimes, women are the most empathetic towards other women.
But in this world, it is always women who harm women, and it is always women who compete for female dominance.
We are all of the same origin, why are you so eager to harm each other? With this energy, why not use it to achieve great things? Instead, you're fighting me, and I'm fighting you—it's truly unbearable.
"Fine, I'll give you the place where that young lady died. See if you can find it, and while you're at it, have someone track him down. He's an official here now."
What?! Someone like that can become an official? Doesn't this put everyone in a terrible situation?
"Then you'd better deal with it quickly."
"Arrange the memorials." Ji Yingying said, and the next second the memorial was in her hand. When Rong Er returned, another memorial appeared in his hand without Ji Yingying having to tell him.
He immediately sent it to Lord Gongsun.
Lord Gongsun, who could have been resting, suddenly had two cases come his way, leaving him feeling helpless and heartbroken.
The helpless thing is that Ji Yingying is right, there is more evil than good in the world. The sad thing is that he hasn't eaten yet.
…………
I've eaten three melons today, that's all. Time for dinner, I'll eat my fill and go home.
Just as Ji Yingying was about to enjoy her hotpot, the waiter came to report that Yanni had arrived.
She quickly had someone come in.
"Sister Ji, it's been a long time."
"Sister Yan, what brings you here?" She remembered that Yanni would be marrying into the family soon, and she shouldn't be going out.
"I came out to buy some things, but I didn't know I'd heard that Sister Ji was here, so I came in to see if she was having a meal?"
"Yes, yes, come, come, let's eat together. I tell you, this dish is delicious, really, very delicious." Ji Yingying asked someone to bring her a bowl and chopsticks and pick up the pig's blood and intestines for her.
"Although it's all offal, our kitchen prepares it very well. You should try it."
Ji Yingying then asked the waiter to bring two more plates of braised dishes, as she loved them.
"Come on, come on, sister, eat this, it's really delicious."
I'm wondering if I should call my second brother to come over?
We'll see each other in a few days, it won't make a difference. Besides, you've been away for so long, you'll be going back soon anyway.
I'm not in a hurry to go back. After I finish eating, I want to go for a walk. It didn't snow today, but I heard it's going to snow tomorrow.
The Little New Year is approaching, and the Lunar New Year is just around the corner; another year has passed.
