In reality, she didn't have any deadly poison.
This was just mud that I had hastily scraped off the sole of my shoe.
Qin Wuyu didn't want to think about it, but the thought that his whole body would ulcerate in half an hour made him unable to sit still. He could already feel his skin itching inch by inch.
"You little brat, the antidote, the antidote!"
"Antidote?"
Xu Yuehuai pointed to herself with her thumb and said, "If you pull me up, I'll naturally give you the antidote."
Qin Wuyu had already hatched many wicked plans in his mind, secretly thinking that he would definitely kill this cunning little girl later.
"You mustn't go back on your word."
"Breaking your promise?" Xu Yuehuai scoffed. "Do you think everyone is like you?"
A moment later, Xu Yuehuai was pulled up.
The two looked at each other, then Qin Wuyu approached menacingly and grabbed Xu Yuehuai by the collar. "Give me the antidote! Where's the antidote?"
"Antidote? What antidote?" Xu Yuehua blinked her big, watery eyes and looked at the other person innocently.
He nearly broke down and screamed hysterically.
Before the other party could completely explode, Xu Yuehuai slowly said, "The antidote is here with me. I was just joking with you. Here you go."
She took out a medicine bottle.
This medicine bottle doesn't contain an antidote, but rather wound medicine.
In his desperation, Qin Wuyu grabbed some pills and started taking them.
After seeing Qin Wuyu take the pill, Xu Yuehuai asked, "Just how many girls have you harmed using this method?"
"What cruelty? I don't know what you're talking about."
“Just now,” Xu Yuehuai stood up and pointed to the distance, “there are only white bones down there. Are you still planning to cover it up?”
Qin Wuyu sneered, "They came here willingly, what does that have to do with me?"
"So it's true that quite a few girls died tragically."
"Stop talking nonsense."
After taking the "antidote," Qin Wuyu naturally felt much better and angrily shouted, "Someone come here!"
Immediately, a group of soldiers burst in from outside.
The soldiers were about to capture Xu Yuehuai.
She racked her brains trying to figure out how to escape, when at that critical moment, a dark figure suddenly appeared outside the courtyard.
The shadowy figure was highly skilled in martial arts, able to strike east, west, south, and north at will.
But when he heard the mournful howls of the crowd, and looked again, the soldiers were all over the place. Xu Yuehuai breathed a sigh of relief and followed the man in black outside. After turning two corners, the view suddenly opened up.
This is the back garden of the government office. A faint fragrance of lotus blossoms wafts over, refreshing the mind and body. She looked closely and saw Qi Guze, dressed in white.
"It's nice to see you again." She didn't seem to feel embarrassed at all, and smiled as she approached the man opposite her.
Qi Guze smiled gently, a smile so calm and collected that it made him appear dignified and elegant. "Yes, I didn't expect you to be in such a sorry state."
"Why bring up something you shouldn't talk about? Let's go, let's not waste time exchanging pleasantries here."
In less than a quarter of an hour, the three of them had left the government office.
Once everyone had settled in at the inn, Zhou Wan arrived.
Seeing that Qi Guze had rescued Xu Yuehuai, Zhou Wan asked incredulously, "Mother, you're back?"
Seeing the sincere smile on Zhou Wan's lips, she smiled too, but still kept a straight face, "I don't know how many people you've asked for help with lately. Don't be so humble in the future."
It is a lesson, and also a reminder.
Zhou Wan nodded respectfully, "Daughter-in-law understands."
Where is my grandson?
Xu Yuehuai turned her gaze to look for the little bean.
Jiang Shichen sneered, seemingly having already predicted that she would "survive a great calamity".
“For you,” Jiang Shichen muttered, “my mother begged your lazy, wicked aunt, and even pleaded with the master and mistress, but they ignored her.”
"Them?" Xu Yuehuai said coldly, "It's good enough that they didn't kick us when we're down. We should stay away from them as much as possible in the future."
"My daughter-in-law knows."
The other person nodded timidly.
Although Zhou Wan couldn't help him immediately, Xu Yuehuai was actually very grateful. After all, Zhou Wan had tried her best to help him in her own way.
"Don't tell anyone else that I'm back."
"yes!"
Zhou Wan nodded hastily, seemingly obedient to her every word.
Xu Yuehuai both liked and disliked Zhou Wan's timid and submissive demeanor.
Logically, everyone should have fled the famine tomorrow, but Xu Yuehuai was unable to get a proper rest after returning.
“He’s a hypocritical devil,” Xu Yuehuai stood up and stared intently at Qi Guze. “We can’t let him continue to do evil and get away with it.”
"Have you obtained any clues?"
"this……"
Xu Yuehuai paused, then shook her head. "I haven't mastered it yet, but I'm going to take it step by step. I'm planning to find a way to unveil his true colors and let people see what he's really like."
"I will do everything I can to help you."
"Ha, then everything is fine, thank you."
Xu Yuehuai beamed with joy.
With Qi Guze's help, we can achieve twice the result with half the effort.
Seeing Xu Yuehuai's beaming smile, Qi Guze felt puzzled. "What is 'thank you'?"
“It’s my hometown dialect,” she replied, quick-wittedly offering a vague answer, “It means ‘thank you very much.’”
"Need not."
The next morning, Zhou Wan took Jiang Shichen out to set up a stall.
Xu Yuehuai was developing a plan.
Now that she has escaped from the government office, she has caused quite a stir in the city. Starting in the middle of the night, Qin Wuyu ordered a search for her everywhere, and even threatened to "wipe her and her accomplices out in one fell swoop".
So she finds it harder to go out.
At that moment, a sharp, sarcastic laugh came from downstairs.
Upon hearing it, she recognized Liu Cuiming's voice.
"No wonder they say you're so skillful. Look at this handkerchief you made, and the flower pattern on the sachet behind your left ear—it's absolutely beautiful." Liu Cuiming praised in a sarcastic tone while snatching the items from Zhou Wan's hands.
This is the needlework Zhou Wan does every day; she goes out to sell it to supplement her family's income.
Now that they need money to stay at the inn, she was worried about where the money would come from. She was just about to take out her needlework to sell when she unexpectedly ran into Liu Cuiming.
"Give this to me, I like it."
"Madam, this took me a lot of time and effort to make. If I sell it, we can all stay here for a day. Please be lenient."
At this point, Zhou Wan prepared to snatch it back.
But because Liu Cuiming was an elder, he didn't dare to.
Jiang Shichen was furious when he saw Liu Cuiming bullying his mother without saying a word, taking advantage of his age. He snatched the things from Liu Cuiming's hands and said, "You're going too far. These are my mother's."
"Your mother's?" Liu Cuiming put her hands on her hips and looked straight at the two of them. "What do you mean 'your' and 'our'? Now that Xu Yuehuai is missing, I'm the boss here. You have to listen to me. Are you going to obediently bring it to me or do I have to use force?"
