Chapter 203: The Peasant Girl and the Prince Whose Life-Saving Favor Was Robbed (38)



Huang Yingying hid behind the stall like a poisonous snake waiting for an opportunity.

Ying Yaoyun saw the sugar man she liked and pulled Danruo to talk to him. Danruo turned around and talked to her.

During this gap, Huang Yingying suddenly jumped up and quickly stabbed Danruo in the back with a sharp knife.

The maid was a former secret guard, and with Danruo's reminder, she has been very alert.

When Huang Yingying was about to get close to Danruo, she was shot directly in the chest by the hidden arrow from the maid's sleeve, and screams soon rang out around her.

Huang Yingying covered the wound on her chest and shouted with effort:

"The wife of Marquis Jing'en has killed someone."

Even if she couldn't live, she would ruin Danruo's reputation. She covered the wound with her hand and took the opportunity to push the sleeve arrow deep into the wound. She clenched her teeth in pain, but blood still flowed out from the corner of her mouth.

The people who were far away were deceived and looked at Dan Ruo angrily, while the people who were closer had already seen Huang Yingying's little tricks.

A scholar who was watching stood up and spoke out:

"It was you who first stabbed the Marquis of Jing'en with this sharp knife, and you even pushed the arrow deeper into your chest. You don't want to live, and you still want to slander the Marquis of Jing'en."

Huang Yingying was not panicked when she saw that her plan was discovered. After all, she still had some influence.

Fei Jin sneered, "Are you having an affair with the wife of Marquis Jing'en? Why are you speaking for her like that?"

The scholar was slandered for upholding justice and was filled with anger. What a vicious woman! In a moment, Huang Yingying started speaking.

"I'm jealous that Lady Jing'en lives a better life than me. We're both granddaughters of the Huang family, so why did she reincarnate and marry someone better? I want to take everything from her, and if I can't, I'll destroy her."

Everyone was shocked. Could Huang Yingying be stupid?

Dan Ruo lowered his eyes and smiled, it was just a small spell.

Huang Yingying was also very panicked. How could she say what was in her heart when she met Dan Ruoqinglie's eyes that knew everything?

She shuddered. Dan Ruo must be a monster, otherwise how could she become so beautiful and how could she, as a peasant girl, marry into the Marquis's Mansion and become his wife.

She wanted to open her mouth to speak but found that she couldn't. She struggled to get up and walked towards Danruo, still holding a sharp knife in her hand. She was determined to drag Danruo with her even if she died.

The crowd was panicked, wondering if this crazy woman was going to kill the wife of Marquis Jing'en.

The maid protected Danruo and aimed the sleeve arrow at Huang Yingying.

Just as she was about to make a move, Jing Ruchen arrived in time and killed Huang Yingying with a sword from behind.

There were cheers from the crowd.

The women in the crowd stared at this scene with their eyes wide open. The tall and handsome man hugged his little wife in his arms and then strode away.

"The Marquis and his wife are truly a match made in heaven, so loving and affectionate."

Jing Ruchen was so scared that he carried Dan Ruo into the carriage to go home.

Shuntian Prefecture took over the case, and through Huang Yingying, they found out the bandits where Jing Jing'er was, and captured them all in one fell swoop.

Jing Jing'er was put into jail again and asked Jing Shengwen to save her, but Jing Shengwen was thinking about his newborn son. Although he was a bastard born to him and Ying Nianrong's maid after he got drunk, he was his only son.

Ying Nianrong was generous enough to recognize the child as her legitimate son and was willing to use her dowry to raise the child.

Naturally, he had to consider his son. Raising a son would be very expensive for the family, and the money needed to save Jing Jing'er would also be quite a bit, so he refused in the name of Ying Nianrong.

The case was synchronized with Huang Yingying's hometown, and it was discovered that Huang Yingying had been reported to the county government by her parents for theft.

Now that Huang Yingying is dead, the theft case has been closed locally.

The Duke of Ying's Mansion was furious that the Huang family girl had attempted to assassinate Dan Ruo in the street.

It seems that they have not been taught enough lessons, allowing them to hurt the girls of the Ying family again and again.

Duke Ying and Jing Ruchen discussed it and decided that now that Danruo had finished her confinement, it was time for them to move the grave together and "visit" the Huang family.

The Huang family felt that they had been particularly unlucky in the past year. Because of the fake ginseng, not only did they become poor, but also Old Mrs. Huang became paralyzed, Old Fourth Huang became disabled, and their family was divided.

But their fortune still did not improve. The government came to the village to collect miscellaneous labor. Other families had to provide one male child, but they had to provide four because of the division of the family.

The four men all joined the battle. They believed that the people should not fight against the officials. They could do more work and get more money anyway.

Unexpectedly, the money that they had saved with great difficulty was stolen frequently. At first, it was a thief in the house. The first and second wives lived together, and all the money was taken away by Huang Yingying.

The third wife's money was secretly taken away by the two sons to gamble.

Because Huang Laosi was weak and earned little, and all his money was taken away by Widow Zhou, the fourth room and her new lover drove him out.

Later, the county magistrate ordered people to steal the food in order to prevent them from having enough food to eat.

Everyone is having a hard time, and Old Mrs. Huang is even worse off because she has no money to see a doctor and eats poorly. Now she can only lie in bed waiting to die.

Huang Lao Da's family began to think about the two children from the second wife, and asked He to find Dan Ruo and Huang Tianquan, who had been away from home for a long time without any news.

Try to get some money from Danruo, otherwise the large dowry given to her would be wasted.

He had been hiding it until this day, when she was surrounded by several people in the family and forced to confess.

He threatened her that if she didn't tell the truth about the whereabouts of Dan Ruo and Huang Tianquan, he would tell everyone that she was having an affair.

He looked at the silent Huang Lao Er and roared:

"Are you still a man?"

Seeing that Huang Lao Er seemed to be loosening up, Huang Lao Da sighed:

"Second child, these years mother said that she favored the fourth child and my good-for-nothing son, but in fact, she loved you the most, otherwise why would she let you marry the second girl's mother?

You know, at that time, the third and fourth brothers were also staring at the second girl's mother.

Among us brothers, mother gave the most beautiful girl to you.

I forced He to go to the hospital today to get my mother medical treatment. Look at my mother's current condition. I'm afraid she won't survive this month."

Huang Lao Er lowered his head and cooperated with Huang Lao Da and his wife to subdue He and tie her up.

There was a commotion outside, but the Huang family members didn't take it seriously. They just wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to force He to speak.

He didn't say anything, so Mrs. Huang took the red-hot fire poker from the kitchen.

"Since my second sister-in-law is determined not to be on the same page with the family, then we can only let her taste the bitter fruit."

He felt the burning pain of the fire poker on her shoulder, and her heart was filled with hatred towards the Huang family.

If it weren't for the fact that her son now had a bright future with Danruo and absolutely could not have a criminal mother, she would have wanted to burn these heartless people to death.
