Xiaoyao Xiaodu Doctor brings space to raise cute brothers and sisters

Wang Xin raised an eyebrow, it turned out that this was a stepmother and daughter.

No wonder the young woman with drooping eyebrows quietly accused her of being disobedient, unfilial, and stubborn as soon as she opened her mouth.

Wang Xin motioned Cangli to investigate, then turned to the woman and said, "What's your name? You said she killed your mother and poisoned your father to silence him. Do you have any evidence? Are there other people in your family?"

The young girl's eyes quickly swept across everyone's faces, her eyes dimmed slightly, and she said, "Miss, my surname is Zou Shujuan, my father is a juren, and he was originally a teacher at Qingshan Academy in this city. I also have an uncle in the capital."

Wang Xin knew this academy, whose fame in Liangcheng was second only to Nanlu Academy.

After Hao Ge'er was bullied at Nanlu Academy, Wang Xin had thought about sending him to Qingshan Academy.

But in the end, I chose to leave this dangerous place.

The girl pointed at the young woman and said, "She is my mother's distant cousin. She became a widow five years ago. Her parents-in-law are vicious and think she is unlucky. Her parents died early, and her brothers from her mother's family went into business when they were young. I don't know where they moved to. My mother took good care of her before she got married, and they kept in touch after she got married. So she came to live with me."

The girl gnashed her teeth in hatred when she said this, "My mother took pity on her and took her in out of kindness, but she never thought that she would end up taking in a poisonous snake."

"She is very good at embroidery, so my mother asked her to teach me, so it won't be boring."

"At first, she treated me very well. After living in my house for half a year, she actually set her sights on my mother's position as the head of the family. She even took advantage of my mother's cold to secretly bribe my mother's personal maid and tamper with my mother's medicine, causing her death."

"She even pretended to be too sad and fainted from crying in the mourning hall. I foolishly waited for her to wake up, thinking that my mother was gone and she was my only relative."

"Who would have thought that she would take advantage of my father's sadness and drunkenness, drug him, climb into his bed, and wake up crying the next day, saying that my father had mistaken her for his mother last night..."

"My father had no choice but to agree to mourn for my mother for a year and marry her as his second wife after a year."

"But just one month later, she was found to be pregnant. My father had no choice but to marry her despite the strange looks from others. Less than a year later, she gave birth to Zou Jiabao, my half brother, and then everything changed."

"She started to act one way to me, but acted another way behind my father's back. At first, my father often cared about me and asked me if she was good to me. But she pretended to be good at that time, so my father believed her more and more."

She said bitterly, "We trusted her too much. Gradually, my father thought she was doing good for me, so he entrusted me to her. She also gradually captured my father's heart, and then she changed."

Zou Shujuan's eyes were getting redder and redder, and she was about to cry again.

Wang Xin was afraid of her tears and said, "Crying is useless. If you have evidence that she killed your parents, then you can present the evidence. If you don't have evidence, we really can't do anything about your affairs just because you cry a few times."

Only then did Zou Shujuan slowly stop crying.

A beauty is indeed a beauty. Even though her eyes are red and swollen from crying, it does not diminish her beauty. Her clear eyes only look more moist and bright.

She looked towards Wang Xin again, but still didn't meet the eyes she wanted to see.

She lowered her head and said, "The maid Hongmei, whom she bribed, told me about her poisoning of my mother. When she was dying two years ago, Hongmei said that her death was the retribution for betraying my mother. This vicious woman asked her to add a large amount of raw rhubarb to my mother's cold medicine. My mother was already suffering from a cold, and this made it even worse. She couldn't make it and died just like that."

Wang Xin glanced at the young woman and saw that she was looking at him with the sidelong glance, with an expression that said "a man of integrity has nothing to fear from his own shadow".

Zou Shujuan wiped her tearful eyes with a handkerchief and raised her voice, saying, "However, the law is long and wide, and nothing can escape. Although Hongmei is gone, the amount of raw rhubarb that this vicious woman gave her was too large, and the clinic has a record of who bought it."

At this point, the woman's face changed and she said angrily, "You have no evidence. What are you talking about? When did I ever give that slave girl any raw rhubarb?"

However, Zou Shujuan's next move made her face change drastically.

Zou Shujuan took out a piece of paper from her bosom, presented it to Wang Xin, and turned to the woman and sneered: "How do you know we don't have any evidence? This was copied from the owner of Baicaotang Medicine Shop on South Street. It clearly states that on the night of March 26th of the Xinwei year, Qian Sun from Liuli Village, Wancheng, bought 20 coins of raw rhubarb..."

There is also the signature and fingerprints of Baicaotang's manager Bai on the paper, proving that this person did buy so much rhubarb at that time.

Qian Sunshi from Liuli Village, Wancheng, was the pass that the woman in front of him had brought with her when she came to seek refuge five years ago...

Wang Xin gasped. One coin of rhubarb weighs three grams, and twenty coins weigh sixty grams. What's more, rhubarb is very cold. When the patient is already suffering from a cold, adding such a large dose of rhubarb to the medicine would be a death warrant, wouldn't it?

Wang Xin looked at the young woman at this time, only to see that her face looked as if she had lost her parents, and her eyes were staring at the girl in front of her with shock and anger.

Zou Shujuan continued, "Hongmei was punished by my mother to suffer on the farm because of her brother's gambling. She held a grudge against you and was instigated by you. In addition, her brother urged her to pay off his gambling debts. She wanted to advance a year's monthly salary. When my mother found out that it was for paying off the gambling debts, she refused without hesitation. In her anger and confusion, you took the opportunity to give her ten taels of silver and promised to let her brother return to the mansion to work after the matter was settled. You also asked her to add a large dose of rhubarb to my mother's medicine, which killed my mother. But she was a maid who grew up with my mother. After my mother got into trouble, she remembered how well my mother treated her before and couldn't sleep well every night. Later, when her brother returned home, he even asked her for money to gamble. Only then did she realize that my mother punished her brother to go to the farm for his own good, but the mistake had been made and it was too late."

When Hongmei was asked for money by her brother again and she couldn't give it out, she was kicked all over the body by her brother without mercy and her head was smashed by a stone. She was filled with remorse and finally had no desire to live. After telling her brother everything, she passed away.

Only then did Zou Shujuan realize that her mother was killed by the person she considered a "relative".

She was fifteen years old at that time.

She went to look for her father secretly, but her father, under the implicit suggestion of her stepmother, thought that she was a liar, rebellious, and unteachable, and that he needed to teach her more.

Her father didn't believe what she said, so he confined her and made her copy the Women's Rules and the Book of Filial Piety at home as punishment.

Her world collapsed overnight.

From then on, she learned how to disguise herself, how to accept everything, and how to pretend to obey but actually disobey.

Pretending to be obedient to his stepmother and father on the surface, he was secretly looking for evidence.

Hard work pays off.

Half a year ago, she finally got the record of her stepmother's purchase of rhubarb a few years ago from the shopkeeper Bai of Baicaotang.

At this time, she was no longer the innocent little girl who knew nothing about the world.

To be on the safe side, she asked someone to copy it, asked that person to put his fingerprints on it, and secretly gave the copy to her father.

My father didn't believe it at first, but the evidence was right in front of him and he couldn't help but believe it.

He went to confront his stepmother in anger.

She followed behind and eavesdropped.

There is an elderly person in my family who is in the hospital, so the posting time is irregular in the next two days. Please forgive me!
