Chapter 321: Humph, Wen Yan is the only one who gets the benefit!
Could it be that their plan has been discovered by Wen Yan?
wrong!
Meng Xiyan is helping her now, so wouldn't he also know about the fact that she burned down the Meng family warehouse?
Wen Ruyue was extremely panicked and looked at Jiang Xinkui for help.
Jiang Xinkui was also panicked, but she quickly calmed down.
"It's just a bill of lading. What can it prove?" After saying that, she reached out to grab the bill of lading.
As long as the bill of lading is destroyed, Wen Yan will have no evidence.
Wen Yan took a step back and dodged: "Mrs. Jiang, why did you snatch my invoice? Are you trying to destroy the evidence?
Brother Meng, you must keep it safe, otherwise if someone tries to confuse right and wrong, we won’t be able to produce evidence.”
Jiang Xinkui's expression twisted for a moment, and she forced a smile: "Are you kidding me? I just wanted to take a closer look. I hope you didn't take the wrong one."
"Did you see it wrong? Do you think my eyes are just for show?" Wen Yan pointed at her own eyes. "What's written on it? I can see the words clearly with my eyes."
Jiang Xinkui and her daughter staggered back in fear.
The bill was written in Wen Ruyue's imitation of Wen Yan's handwriting, and the similarity was only about 60% to 70%.
Anyone with experience would be able to spot the flaw.
so.
Wen Yan already knew everything.
What about Meng Xiyan?
How could he let it go when I sent people to burn down his farm?
Jiang Xinkui looked at Meng Xiyan with a pale face.
Meng Xiyan looked back at her indifferently.
Jiang Xinkui's heart trembled, and a chill rushed to the top of his head.
She staggered back two steps and took Wen Ruyue's hand: "Let's go, let's go quickly."
"But the charcoal..."
"Don't worry about the charcoal, saving your life is the most important thing." Jiang Xinkui pulled her away.
Just then.
Meng Xiyan's guards hurried over to report, "Sir, the criminals who set fire to the farm the night before yesterday have all been apprehended and are now being sent to Jingzhao Prefecture for official processing."
"You...what did you just say?" Jiang Xinkui seemed to have suffered a huge blow and was on the verge of collapse.
Then, the sound of gongs came from far away and approached: "Arsonist, pedestrians get out of the way."
After a while.
Then I saw a group of officers escorting a group of more than ten prisoners passing by the courtyard gate.
"Mom, it's... it's Zhongfu." Wen Ruyue pointed at the leading prisoner, extremely panicked.
Jiang Xinkui was so angry that he grabbed her arm and said, "Shut up."
Wen Ruyue took a breath with a hiss in pain.
The wanted criminal named Zhongfu also looked at Wen Ruyue and Jiang Xinkui for help.
The mother and daughter both looked away at the same time.
Soon, the team was taken away.
Wen Yan suddenly pressed down on the mother and daughter's shoulders and whispered a strange laugh in their ears: "Since we each have our own opinions, why don't we report it to the authorities and let the Jingzhao Yin investigate."
"The Jingzhao Yin is well-known for his ability to solve cases. I believe that such a small case can be solved thoroughly in less than half a day." Ying Zhilin spoke from outside the door.
"Who are you? When is it your turn to speak here?"
Ying Zhilin acted aggrieved: "Madam, she was mean to me."
Wen Yan's eyebrows twitched, knowing what trouble Lin was causing!
But she still followed Ying Zhilin's words and said, "It doesn't matter. Once we report it to the police, they will be arrested and put in jail."
"Who... who said they were going to report it to the police? We... we made a mistake, isn't that okay?"
The mother and daughter got into the carriage and fled.
Seeing their miserable appearance, Wen Yan laughed out loud.
On the departing carriage.
Wen Ruyue was unwilling to accept this: "Mom, are we going to have to swallow this loss in silence?"
Jiang Xinkui frowned and said nothing.
Wen Ruyue stamped her feet in anger, "We put so much effort into getting that charcoal!
We rented a bullock cart and hired laborers, which cost us a lot of money and time.
Is it really that easy for that little bitch Wen Yan to get away with it?"
"What else can you do if you don't give her a good deal?" Jiang Xinkui interrupted her impatiently.
“But… they’re still occupying my house!
Mother, I am unwilling to accept this."
"Even if you are unwilling, you have to bear it. Otherwise, if Wen Yanzhen reports to the police, we will be in big trouble just based on the fake delivery note in her hand." Jiang Xinkui felt for the first time that Wen Ruyue was as stupid as a pig.
Wen Ruyue twisted the handkerchief in her hand, indignantly saying, "I knew that nothing good would happen if I got involved with Wen Yan."
Since her rebirth, nothing has gone her way except marrying Huo Yaoxing.
Miaobizhai does not make money.
Reselling grain is a loss-making business.
Now even the storage of charcoal has led to accidents.
Wen Yan is really a disaster!
Wen Yan saw Jiang Xinkui and her daughter fleeing in panic, so she said, "They probably won't dare to cause trouble again in the short term. We'll leave first."
Meng Xiyan nodded and let her leave first.
On the carriage back.
Ying Zhilin asked suspiciously, "You could have captured the mother and daughter in one fell swoop, so why did you show mercy? Did you want to experience the fun of playing cat and mouse?"
"You're right. It's too boring to just press it." Wen Yan replied with a smile.
In her previous life, Wen Ruyue and Huo Yaoxing teamed up to fool her for more than ten years. Wouldn't it be too easy for her to just kill Wen Ruyue?
She wanted to lock Wen Ruyue and Huo Yaoxing up, so that they would have hope and then be disappointed.
She would pull them again and again until she was desperate.
The suffering she endured in her previous life will be repaid to her tenfold or a hundredfold.
Wen Yan was carefully preparing the order introduced by Aunt Meng Er.
Ying Zhilin was busy preparing New Year's goods and helping Wen Yan share the work.
Although he was a scholar, he did all these trivial business tasks without any complaints and helped Wen Yan save a lot of money.
In a blink of an eye, the day of the banquet arrived.
Wen Yan wanted to go and keep an eye on it personally, so he got up early.
After washing and dressing up, he got on the carriage and headed towards Qingfeng Tower.
In the carriage.
Wen Yan asked Pei'er: "You took a bundle just now, what's in it?"
"Oh, it was sent from the cloth shop. They said that the batch of wool they bought has been woven into cloth." Pei'er quickly took out the bundle and opened it to show Wen Yan.
Samples of solid colors and plaid patterns appeared before my eyes.
"Weaving wool is very troublesome. Cleaning, deodorizing, softening, and degreasing are all time-consuming and laborious. Furthermore, our craftsmen can only learn by following my notes, without anyone to guide them.
Being able to produce a sample of fabric so quickly is already very fast."
Wen Yan picked up a piece of plaid cloth, rubbed it first, then rubbed it on the inside of her wrist, and finally smelled it: "The texture is rough, but it doesn't smell bad anymore."
Pearl followed suit and took the cloth to observe it. "Miss, this cloth is so rough and the holes are so big. Can it really keep you warm? And it's very prickly against your skin. It must be very uncomfortable to wear."
"This is a cloth spun with a small amount of linen, so it's naturally stiffer." After trying every type of fabric, Wen Yan said to Pei'er, "I'm almost freezing to death, so who cares if it's tight or not? Besides, if you pair it under a paper fur coat, the warmth will be doubled."
Pei'er only understood half of what was said, but she always trusted Wen Yan unconditionally and believed whatever Wen Yan said.
"I'll tell Shopkeeper Cui that we can start making clothes. All of them will be made into small, close-fitting vests."
"Okay." Pei'er responded and opened the carriage curtain. "Miss, we have arrived at Qingfeng Little House."
As Wen Yan got off the carriage, another carriage stopped immediately and the maids helped a woman who was not young to get off the carriage.
Wen Yan was a little surprised. She didn't expect that the first guest of Qingfeng Xiaolou would be her.
