"Master Wei, today's matter is not up to you. Here, I am the one who can make the decision."
At this point, Lord Wu, who always loved to take advantage of others, finally acted like a good official today.
His image today is that of a good official who is not afraid of power and serves the people.
The old village chief and others praised him from time to time, and Lao Qian flattered him on the side, while the people outside also looked on with anticipation.
Say it with all your might, sir, we are waiting for you to make the decision and eliminate this scourge of the Wei family.
Being looked at with trust and expectation by so many people, Lord Wu, who usually likes to weigh the pros and cons, was also stunned at this moment.
Several doctors found arsenic in the guard's pocket and between his fingers.
In this case, can his so-called nephew's poisoning still be justified?
Wei Hong knew that today's matter was over. What he was thankful for now was that it was Manager Wei who did it.
Otherwise, I won’t be able to take advantage today, and I’m afraid I’ll be in trouble.
At the first moment, the new noble of the Wei family, who had been powerful for several years, shouted at Manager Wei.
“Sir, I didn’t know that the steward of my family would do such a thing.
From now on, this kind of person is no longer a member of the Wei family. You can kill or chop him up if you want. It is entirely up to you."
After saying this, he looked at Butler Wei who was slumped on the ground.
"Weiping, I will take care of your wife, children, and elders for you."
Wei Ping felt bitter after hearing this. He couldn't escape from this matter today, so all he could do was to protect his family.
But, can the family members really be protected by the master?
Thinking of his master's character, Wei Ping was very suspicious.
"Master, my wife is still young. If she can't keep me, then she can get married. But I hope you can take good care of my son and daughter."
"Okay, okay, we are master and servant after all."
"Yes, sir. After all, I have done so many things for you."
Wei Ping's words seemed to be reminiscing about the past with the master, however, Wei Hong narrowed his eyes slightly as he listened.
That's great. Wei Ping looks honest, but I didn't expect that he would dare to threaten me at the last minute.
Humph, take care of your kid?
Master, I really took care of her. Your little daughter is seven years old now. Speaking of which, a seven-year-old girl...
Thinking of this, Wei Hong looked at Wei Ping with a sincere expression.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of you if I say so."
His sincerity made Wei Ping feel a little relieved.
Xiushui and the old village chief watched the master and servant's performance and were so angry that they wanted to curse. However, they also knew that it was impossible to bring down the Wei family in one fell swoop based on today's incident.
It was a great blessing for the people of Linji Village to be able to put down his arrogance and subdue one of his lackeys.
The old village chief knew that the matter had come to an end, so he bowed and invited everyone again.
"Everyone, my moving party in Linji Village hasn't ended yet, please go back and continue."
"Okay, okay, let's go back and continue drinking."
A group of people walked out warmly, and no one looked at Wei Hong with a gloomy face.
Wei Hong was also very ashamed. He looked coldly at the smiling Uncle Zhong and Xiushui beside him, with murderous intent in his eyes.
However, after receiving Uncle Zhong's indifferent glance, he quickly restrained his expression, tossed his skirt and walked out.
"Thief, return my granddaughter to me..."
Just then, a woman's voice that sounded familiar was heard.
Xiushui saw a woman with silver hair rushing towards Wei Hong and trying to fight him.
However, the people around Wei Hong had already stood up and wanted to kick the woman.
"Mother, mother..."
Xiushui was shocked when she saw the middle-aged woman standing in front of the old woman.
"Mrs. Jiang...quickly, stop Wei Hong."
Uncle Zhong waved his hand at the people below, and some people rushed forward and knocked the Wei family guards to the ground in a few blows.
When Wei Hong saw that the situation was not good, he stood up and ran forward.
"Just wait for me."
"Old man, why are you blocking my way? I am already old, and today I will bring Ru Ru back even if I have to risk my life."
"Madam, what happened to Ru Ru?"
Xiushui hurried forward to help old lady Jiang up. The latter stared at her closely, and after recognizing her as the little miracle doctor, she grabbed her hand with tears on her face.
"Little Miracle Doctor, it's a Little Miracle Doctor..."
Madam Jiang nodded excitedly. "Yes, I didn't expect we'd meet here again. Woo woo..."
Seeing how excited they were, Xiushui quickly helped them up.
It just so happened that Uncle Zhong had a carriage, so he helped the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law onto the carriage.
Xiushui pretended to pour out two cups of hot water from the pot, but actually poured it out from the space. After letting the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law drink it, she asked about the situation.
"A few days after you arrived, we heard that the enemy had attacked our area.
I thought that the child’s father was having a hard time in the capital, so our whole family might as well come to Liuhua to settle down.
The child’s father can also go back then.
Although there were some twists and turns along the way, we finally arrived at the Ancheng area smoothly.
Because our family gave money, the village we settled in was next to the city, and it was one of the richest villages.
But……"
When Old Mrs. Jiang said this, her face was full of tears again, and Madam Jiang was so angry that her eyebrows raised.
"A wealthy village is good, but it also depends on who is in charge of the village. The village we are going to happens to be the village where the Wei family is located.
The other day, the daughter of an older family went out for a walk with her maid, and was seen by that damned Wei Hong.
Then, yesterday, he brought a few bags of gifts that didn't look very good, and also brought a matchmaker to my house, and directly said that he had taken a fancy to my girl and wanted to take her home as a concubine to bring good luck."
"The most infuriating thing is that they relied on their status as local tyrants to snatch my Ru Ru away that same day. I, our Jiang family, are unfamiliar with this place. Even if we had money... we couldn't do anything about this local tyrant..."
Old Mrs. Jiang, who had been strong and shrewd all her life, burst into tears when she mentioned this disaster.
From them, Xiushui also understood why many people were reluctant to leave after they became familiar with their own territory.
After you leave, you can't imagine what unexpected situations you will encounter.
For example, the Jiang family is also rich and well-off, but when they arrived at the Wei family's territory, they were thrown gifts, hired a matchmaker, and then forcibly carried people away.
It sounds incredible, but this kind of thing really happens.
"Old Madam, since this is a marriage you didn't agree to, let's take her back."
"Okay... Please help me, young lady. My whole family will thank you."
The old lady's eyes were full of anticipation, but Xiushui had a concern that had to be explained in advance.
