The Cheng family was very quick, and with Cheng Wu, the chief constable from the yamen, they got the title deed to the wasteland the next day.
Cheng Yue had also soaked the seeds and was waiting for Shanshui to bring the servants he had bought, the work team that was repairing his house, and Cheng Shun and Cheng Wen, father and son, to clean up the place before he could start sowing.
This also resulted in the fact that in the past two or three days, only she and Gu Xuelan had to set up the stall.
When they arrived in town, Gu Xuelan still had to busy herself with some work at the embroidery shop. Fortunately, Master Liang was there, and he called two waiters that Fatty Xie had found to work in the skewers restaurant to come and help work at the stall.
Cheng Yue would visit Xue Hanyu every day after closing the stall. Xue Hanyu's mood gradually stabilized, but he was still frowning.
On the eighth day of April, after Cheng Yue closed his stall, he planned to go to Shen's house to chat with Xue Hanyu for a while. Just as he was saying goodbye to Master Liang and the two guys, he saw Mingzhu running over in a hurry.
"Auntie Yue, this is terrible! Miss Xue has been arrested!"
Mingzhu ran to Cheng Yue and said anxiously.
"ah?"
Cheng Yue exclaimed.
Her first reaction was that Mingzhu must be naughty again. Hanyu called Ji "Sir" and Mingxuan "Brother". They had known each other since childhood and were as close as siblings. How could anyone possibly let someone capture Hanyu?
But Mingzhu's expression didn't look like a prank at all, and she couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
"What's going on? Let's go to the government office and talk as we go!"
Cheng Yue pulled Mingzhu onto the donkey cart and headed towards the yamen.
"Old Madam Shen is dead, Second Master Shen is dead, and the eldest young master of the Shen family is dead. Second Madam Shen went to the yamen and beat the drum to protest, saying that Miss Xue was the murderer, and there was witnesses and evidence. Lord Ji asked Uncle Wu to take the brothers to arrest her. I followed them, but I slipped away halfway and came here specifically to tell you."
Mingzhu Road.
"What?"
Cheng Yue was even more shocked.
"Really. I don't know exactly how they died. But Madam Shen said she has evidence, someone in their house can prove that the deaths of these three generations of grandparents and grandchildren were all caused by Miss Xue. But I don't think it's possible. Miss Xue is so timid and so crybaby, how could she possibly kill someone?"
Mingzhu looked serious.
“Aunt, Mingzhu!”
Coincidentally, Cheng Jinyan met the two people after school.
"Jinyan, go to the stall and wait for your mother for a while. I have something to do here. You guys go back first. I'll be back with Mingzhu and the others in a while."
When she saw Cheng Jinyan, Cheng Yue realized that she had forgotten about Gu Xuelan.
They had agreed to wait at the stall.
"Hey, Auntie, Mingzhu..."
Before Cheng Jinyan could answer, the donkey cart drove away.
He frowned, looked around, and finally went to the stall to wait for his mother.
There was already a large crowd gathered in front of the yamen.
Madam Shen beat the drum to appeal for justice, so Lord Ji naturally had to go to court. The common people all liked to watch the excitement, especially since some people had recognized that the person kneeling in the hall was Madam Shen. The common people liked to watch the excitement of the rich even more.
Mingzhu took Cheng Yue inside.
She was wearing a constable's uniform, and she was the only female constable in Taoyuan County. Many people recognized her and made way for her.
"Xue Hanyu, I'm asking you a question!"
Pushing through the crowd, Cheng Yue saw Xue Hanyu kneeling in the hall like puppets, as well as Second Madam Shen, and three stretchers with three corpses of three generations of the Shen family lying on them!
