“It’s said that a day as husband and wife is equivalent to a hundred days of kindness. A hundred days as husband and wife is as deep as the sea,” Tian Guangsheng said with a bitter smile. ‘But you, Tian Xiu’e, are a wolf in sheep’s clothing!”

‘Do you dare to say that Dazhuang and Xiaotou are my sons?

‘Do you dare say you’ve never poisoned my wine all these years?

‘Do you dare to say that you’ve never done anything to let me down?!”

Tian Guangsheng approached her step by step. He looked into her eyes and questioned her one after another.

Tian Xiu’e wanted to quibble, but she did not know where to start. “Brother Guangsheng, I only gave birth to Datou and Xiaozhuang after marrying you. How can you not admit that they are your children?”

‘As for the matter of poisoning, that’s even more nonsense!” Tian Xiu’e’s face was tense as she said angrily, ‘We’re husband and wife who’ve bowed to the heavens and earth. We’ve been together for so many years. Why should I harm you)”

…..
‘Naturally, it’s for the small fortune in my hands.” Tian Guangsheng couldn’t help but cough twice. His gaze became sharper. “You schemed to chase Lanhua out of the house and deliberately drugged my wine. Aren’t you trying to wait for me to die? Once I die, you can take this small fortune under my name as my widow, right?”

‘Of course not!” Tian Xiu’e immediately jumped up. “Brother Guangsheng, am I that vicious in your eyes? If I wanted to harm you, why didn’t I just poison you to death? Don’t believe me just because those people tried to sow discord!”

Tian Guangsheng sneered. ‘The reason why you didn’t kill me earlier is because I’m still useful to you! After all, the pressure of raising two sons as a woman is too great, so you urgently need a fool like me to help you raise your children!”

‘Tian Xiu’e, Tian Xiu’e, you’re really good!”

Tian Guangsheng suddenly clutched his chest and spat out a mouthful of black blood!

The blood fell on Tian Xiu’e’s skirt. She immediately tore off the skirt in disgust.

Looking at her actions, Tian Guangsheng only felt sad.

It was only at this moment that he understood that Tian Xiu’e really did not have any feelings for him!

This farce did not end until dusk.

Tian Xiu’e was escorted back to the county city by the bailiffs on suspicion of intentional murder.

As for Tian Datou and Tian Xiaozhuang, they were both expelled from the family by Tian Guangsheng after the blood test..

Zhao Lanhua and Shen Dashan stayed in Tian Village to take care of the depressed Tian Guangsheng.

As for the others, they boarded the carriage and returned to the Shen family’s courtyard in Shanghe Village.

When Ji Zhao and the others rushed home, it was already close to 9 pm.

Fortunately, Eldest Sister-in-law Shen had left them some radish bone soup.

She used the radish bone soup to cook a large pot of thin noodles. The taste was especially delicious and rich.

After eating an entire bowl, Ji Zhao put down her bowl and chopsticks in satisfaction and burped comfortably.

After Eldest Sister-in-law Shen and Second Sister-in-law Shen heard what happened during the day, they were shocked!

“1 didn’t expect Tian Xiu’e to be so evil! She actually harmed Grandfather…”

‘That’s why it’s hard to tell what’s inside a person’s heart! Grandfather must be regretting it now, right? Only Mother is his only daughter.” Second

Sister-in-law Shen thought for a moment, then looked at Ji Zhao and asked, ‘Ah Tao, I heard from someone that the county magistrate needs evidence when he judges whether a person is guilty or not. Now that the bailiffs have taken Tian Xiu’e away , do we have any evidence to prove that she harmed someone?

‘Second Sister-in-law, you even thought of this!” Ji Zhao praised with a smile. ‘Second Sister-in-law, you’re really amazing, aren’t you?

‘Alright, alright, stop praising me.” Second Sister-in-law Shen quickly waved her hand and looked at Shen Yao’s face. “Third Brother, how long do you think Tian Xiu’e will be sentenced to?”

‘After all, Tian Xiu’e has accompanied Grandfather for so many years. If Tian

Xiu’e can’t be locked up for long, she will definitely think of a way to pester Grandfather again in the future, right?” Eldest Sister-in-law Shen also felt that this matter was very troublesome!

‘Don’t worry, she won’t be able to come out.” Shen Yao smiled. “I’ll personally write a complaint and send it to the county office.”

‘The most important thing now is for Mother to persuade Grandfather to write a divorce letter. This way, Tian Xiu’e will have to compensate Grandfather with a sum of silver.”

‘That’s for the best!” Second Sister-in-law Shen nodded hurriedly. “We must let these bad people receive the punishment they deserve!”

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was the Lantern Festival.

The matter with the Tian family had also come to an end three days ago.

Tian Xiu’e was sentenced to life imprisonment, and Tian Datou and Tian Xiaozhuang disappeared after being expelled from the family.

Under Zhao Lanhua’s comfort, Tian Guangsheng gradually came to his senses.

However, Ji Zhao felt more and more uneasy.

Because the night before the Lantern Festival, she had a nightmare again.

The scene in the dream was the same as last time. The Shen family’s courtyard had been burned to the ground by someone with ulterior motives.

The house was burned down and those who lived in it were burned to death.

The last thing Ji Zhao saw in her dream was Zhao Lanhua holding little

Zhuangzhuang and shaking her head at her, telling her not to get close.

“What’s wrong?” Sensing her abnormality, Shen Yao quickly comforted her. “Ah Tao, what’s wrong?

‘Ah Yao…”

The moment Ji Zhao spoke, tears streamed down her face.

Shen Yao wiped her tears in a panic and his heart ached. ‘Did you have another nightmare?”

Ji Zhao closed her eyes weakly and nodded lightly.

Previously, she had never had the same nightmare twice. This must be a warning from the Earth God!

‘Ah Yao, can you help me prepare candles and ingots?” Ji Zhao, who had calmed down, gently tugged at his sleeve and begged in a low voice.

‘Okay.”

Ji Zhao immediately smiled through her tears. After quickly calming herself down, she went to the kitchen.

She rolled up her sleeves and continued to be a little yuanxiao.

She made two flavors of yuanxiao, sesame and red bean.

She scooped out a large bowl of cooked yuanxiao and placed it into the food box that she had prepared beforehand.

Before dawn, Ji Zhao and Shen Yao arrived at the Earth Temple at the back of the mountain.

Ji Zhao placed the small yuanxiao she had made on the shrine platform and respectfully placed it on the shrine platform for an incense stick of time. Finally, she knelt piously on the soft futon.

She closed her eyes and prayed silently in her heart.

Smelling the sandalwood fragrance, the anxiety in her heart gradually calmed down.

Gradually, she felt more and more at ease.

‘Ah Yao, let’s go back.” An hour later, Ji Zhao already had a plan in mind.

‘Okay.”

After returning to the Shen family’s courtyard, Ji Zhao was not in a hurry to enter. Instead, she turned to look at Shen Yao and said softly, “Ah Yao, didn’t Brother Qin secretly arrange a group of guards to protect us? Can you let them appear? I have something to ask of them..”
