Xiao Baili listened to her sister-in-law’s instigation when she was in the carriage, while Old Lady Shi and the others were waiting at the gate.

Now, she saw Old Lady Shi and others grabbing and beating Old Madam Wu and Madam Wu. Thinking that she was almost buried alive by these people, she felt that beating them was just right.

Her admiration for her sister-in-law deepens even more.

She can make people suffer like this just by using your words, without even lifting a finger. She was a master.

She has a lot to learn from her sister-in-law, who was so powerful!

The Headmaster of the Wu Family and Young Master Wu’s face turned black.

“Are you all dead? Why don’t you go and separate them quickly?”

He was naturally angry when he saw his mother was beaten like this.

When the two of them arrived, Shi Qingluo looked at the people of the Shi Family, allowing them to let go of the maidservants.

Old Lady Shi and others were also brilliant. They took the opportunity to slap people a few more times, and then let them go in a hurry.

Old Madam Wu was helped to get up, but her whole body was shaking with anger as she said: “Shrew, you bunch of shrews.”

Her hair was disheveled and her face was red and swollen. She looked at the Headmaster and said viciously: “You better let them look good.”

The head of the Wu family nodded, “Don’t worry, mother!”

He told the maidservants: “Help the old lady and your madam go back and rest first.”

The two of them were hurt from the beating, and they were ready to go back to change clothes and see the doctor.

After the headmaster watched his old mother and wife taken away, he looked at Old Lady Shi with a stern expression: “You old shrew, don’t go too far.”

Old Lady Shi knew that the Wu Family was about to fall, so she was not afraid of him.

She rushed at him and spat a mouthful of yellow phlegm into his face.

“Bah, you murderer my son, I will fight with you.”

The Headmaster wasn’t paying attention, so she was spat with phlegm and then slapped in the face.

The Headmaster was disgusted by the phlegm spitted by the old lady, so he quickly took out his handkerchief and wiped it away.

And then, he was suddenly slapped. Everyone was stunned.

After coming back to his senses, he became furious: “You’re looking for death!”

Young Master Wu had never seen his father being treated like this, so he couldn’t help but want to beat Old Lady Shi.

He stepped forward to slap Old Lady Shi.

Old Lady Shi was used to being mischievous, so she sat on the floor and cried: “Help! The Wu Family not only wants to poison people to death but also kills people to silence them.”

Young Master Wu was so angry that he wanted to slap her. Since this was the Wu Family, there was no need to be afraid.

Who would have thought that before his hand fell on the old lady, someone would grab her wrist?

“What are you doing? Do you want to kill someone and silence them?”

Shi Qingluo caught him and said to the people of the Shi Family: “You have seen it, Young Master Wu wants to beat an elder and kill her to silence her. When we leave, we will go to the Yamen to sue him.”

Everyone in the Shi family nodded: “We saw it, and we will sue this beast.”

Young Master Wu: “……”

This damn girl was so shameless, she confuses right and wrong.

It was the members of his family who were beaten, okay?

He wanted to break free from Shi Qingluo’s hand but couldn’t break free no matter what.

What a damn girl, she was so strong.

He gritted his teeth looked at her and asked, “What do you want?”

Shi Qingluo looked at him with an innocent face: “This is the question we want to ask, what do you want do you?”

“You poisoned My Fourth Uncle, and he is still lying in bed half-dead. The doctor came to see him and said he doesn’t have an antidote.”

“Hand over the antidote and we will stop making trouble.”

At this moment, she was talking nonsense, deliberately delaying time.

Mo Qingling and others should be arriving at Wu Mansion soon.

Young Master Wu was very puzzled: “What’s poisoning? We didn’t poison him. Don’t throw dirty water around.”

Shi Qingluo was reluctant to give up: “You don’t have to quibble, we just invited the doctor to come and see us, and the servants and maids in your house heard it.”

At this moment, a young man who was responsible for monitoring Shi Laosi came forward and told Young Master Wu what happened just now when the doctor arrived.
young Master Wu was a little confused. They were not responsible for this poison.

There was a good way to catch all the Shi Family and Xiao Family in one go. Why should they poison him?

He shook his head: “We didn’t poison him.”

Shi Qingluo refused to let him go: “My Fourth Uncle said it was you who did it. You wanted to poison him and then remarry his wife.”

Young Master Wu: “……”

This is nonsense. How can they do such a thing for an abandoned concubine daughter?

At this moment, Shi Laosan appeared at the door of the yard.

He made a hand gesture to Shi Qingluo.

The servants of the Wu Family were blocking the government officials from coming in, stalling for time.

Shi Qingluo immediately said to Old Lady Shi who was throwing things on the floor: “Grandmother, since they don’t admit it, go outside and let everyone comment.”

Before Old Lady Shi and the others came, she had already taught them what to do.

Old Lady Shi immediately got up nimbly and rushed out with her daughters-in-law.

Upon seeing this, the Headmaster immediately asked someone to stop them, but he was blocked by other members of the Shi Family, so they were able to rush out.

When Old Lady Shi was about to approach the gate, she endured the pain and slapped herself twice in the face.

As soon as she rushed out, Shi Laosan, Shi Laoda, and others also took the opportunity to push away some servants blocking the gate from behind.

Letting several people from the county government squeeze in.

Then people passing by and the families living nearby heard Old Lady Shi’s miserable cries.

“Help, the Wu Family poisons people and wants to kill us to silence us.”

“Young Master Wu is so unscrupulous that they even beat up an old lady like me.”

When the onlookers heard what she said, they looked over and saw slap marks on her face.

“This Young Master Wu has gone too far. He attacked an old lady of his age.”

“Did I hear it right that the old lady say the Wu family is going to kill them to silence them?”

When Old Lady Shi heard what everyone said, she immediately cried: “Yes, they want their concubine daughter to marry into a wealthy family in Fucheng as a concubine, so they poisoned my son.”

“We only found out about this when we came to visit our son today, so the Wu Family members wanted to kill us to silence us.”

“My poor, miserable son!”

The onlookers couldn’t hold back and began to curse the Wu Family as vicious.

At this moment, the Headmaster and Young Master Wu also arrived, and they were very angry when they heard what Old Lady Shi said.

This water was too dirty. They haven’t done anything at all, okay?

Because Shi Qingluo held Young Master Wu’s arm and delayed for a while before letting go, they hurried out now. Several people from the county government had already entered.

However, the Headmaster of the Wu Family was still sharp-eyed and saw the remaining government servants standing at the door.

The housekeeper stepped forward and said: “Master, they said they received a report that the son-in-law in our family was poisoned and dying, so they came to investigate on the order of the county magistrate.”

“They said they would go in and search to see if they could find any poison.”

The Headmaster didn’t know why, but he felt inexplicably panicked.

There was a problem in their family. Although the place was secretive, he also felt guilty.

Of course, he doesn’t want people from the county government to investigate.

However, the county government’s police officers were determined to go in and investigate the poisoning incident, so they could only take them to see Shi Laosi personally.

Originally, he wanted to leave his son behind to deal with Old Lady Shi’s affairs.

Unexpectedly, he heard a servant come and tell me that a government servant had rushed into the house, and he was very frightened.

He hurriedly said to Young Master Wu: “Go and have a look.”

Young Master Wu also became anxious: “Okay!”

He ran in quickly. Shi Qingluo’s eyes flashed, and she chased after him: “You can’t leave until you hand over the antidote.”

Then she rushed through the door and blocked Young Master Wu’s way.
