The second widow was trembling all over. Seeing that Zhu Chunfu obviously could not help her, she also knelt in front of Yu Caiwei.

She didn't forget that she had just followed in giving false testimony.

The second widow's brain was quicker than Liu Erhu's after all. Seeing that Zhu Chunfu was unconscious, she cried miserably.

"I didn't intentionally give false testimony. Zhu Chunfu forced me to do it. If I didn't agree, he would have killed me. I had no choice but to do it..."

As soon as the words fell, the sound of crying lingered in the air, and it was the miserable appearance of a little white flower who had given herself to a bully and had a pitiful life.

Yu Caiwei felt a chill in her heart as she looked at the scene in front of her. This was not what they said when they framed her just now.

She has never been a generous person, and now she is doing this for the sake of her family.

In her previous life, she lived a cowardly life and died tragically. In this life, she must protect the people around her.

She would risk her life to repay those who were good to her, but don't blame her for revenge on those who were malicious towards her, because she has never been a kind person.

Yu Caiwei found the second widow's expression funny: "He forced you to do it? Really? You must tell the official when the time comes!"

She squatted down and leaned close to the second widow's ear and spoke in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"It would be better if he died because of this. If he was released after being locked up for a few days, tsk tsk tsk, if he knew you said this about him behind his back..."

"How do you think he will take revenge on you?"

The second widow's face was three parts paler than paper. She rolled her eyes as if she couldn't bear the blow and fainted on the ground.

Yu Caiwei saw her eyes moving constantly under her eyelids and knew that she was pretending to be dizzy.

Without giving any face, he pointed at the second widow and said directly, "She fainted and needs to be seen by the officials. Come on, tie her up too!"

A burly and fat village woman ran faster than anyone else, pulling a hemp rope and coming over.

His mouth was stretched so wide that it was wide open.

He was mumbling something while working.

"You dress up in fancy clothes every day to seduce my man, I will tie you up like a beggar."

Zhu Chengfu came close to Yu Caiwei, as if he had completely forgotten that he had just had a scene with Yu Caiwei.

"My dear young master, this is all a misunderstanding. How about... we put aside our differences?"

Yu Caiwei looked at the three people who were tied up and put together, and asked Zhu Chengfu.

"Does the village chief have a cart?"

"Yes, of course there is!"

A villager said kindly, and without Yu Caiwei's further instructions, he ran towards Zhu Chunfu's house.

In just quarter of an hour, a large cart was pulled over. It was more than enough to accommodate Zhu Chunfu, Liu Erhu and the other two.

Yu Caiwei bowed to the people who were still gathered here and said, "I have been involved in this matter from beginning to end. I know more about it than anyone else. Let me send these three people to the government."

Ordinary people are naturally afraid of places like government offices and would love for someone to do the job for them.

Zhu Chengfu's mind is now filled with the thought that Zhu Chunfu is gone. Zhu Chunfu's five brick and tile houses are his now. Who cares how he goes to the government office?

Yu Caiwei added: "This is a crime scene. It must not be destroyed. Someone should guard it well."

Zhu Guifu stood out from the crowd, now looking like the village chief.

This must be the reason why he didn't say a word to help Zhu Chunfu.

"Don't worry, young master. I will lock this place after you leave and will not let anyone in."

"Yeah," Yu Caiwei nodded indifferently, and asked someone to harness the cart to the horses, and the group left quickly.

That night, the dim candlelight reflected on the mottled walls, adding a sense of eeriness and horror for no reason.

Zhu Chunfu was awakened by hunger. He opened his eyes and met the bright eyes in the darkness. He was immediately startled.

The look in his eyes was truly terrifying. He looked at him as if he was looking at a stone or a tree.

It's not like the look of looking at a living thing!

He wanted to escape, but when he moved, he found himself tied tightly to a chair.

At this moment, he didn't know whether he should be glad that the cloth stuffed in his mouth was gone.

He trembled and begged for mercy: "I know I was wrong, please forgive me, I will give you all my wealth, three hundred taels of silver to buy my life!"

Zhu Chunfu felt that there was no mortal hatred between the two of them, it was just a frame-up, and it didn't work, right?

Half of Yu Caiwei's face looked as handsome as a god under the candlelight, while the other half hidden in the darkness looked like a ghost, cruel and bloodthirsty.

A carved dagger the size of an adult man's palm fluttered in her hand like a butterfly.

She never looked at Zhu Chunfu, and said in a low voice, "As far as I know, farmers can only save three or four taels of silver after working hard all year. Where did you get these three hundred taels?"

Zhu Chunfu paused, then turned away guiltily: "I'm lucky, I won this from gambling!"

But Yu Caiwei's voice became colder...

"Didn't you save 80% of the monthly wages of the boys you introduced to work in the rich families and mail them back home? You took the rest of the money and only those were left, right?"

Zhu Chunfu looked at Yu Caiwei in shock, as if he had seen a ghost. "You, how did you know that?"

How did she know?

Just a quick guess and you'll know.

"Where is that wealthy family you mentioned?"

To be able to build such a den of vengeance, money alone is not enough.

Zhu Chunfu was so scared that he was shaking all over. "I don't know, I don't know!"

"You don't know where those boys who said they were going to work were sent?"

Yu Caiwei's voice suddenly became sharp, and the exquisite dagger in her hand flew out like an arrow, brushed against Zhu Chunfu's neck, and nailed to the wall.

The slight pain in his neck and the feeling of blood draining out of his body made Zhu Chunfu pale.

"It was my wife's brother who took the person away. I know nothing about it."

Zhu Chunfu still doesn't understand why these four people, who clearly came to the village to ask Liu Erhu's family for money, started to inquire about those boys?

The air was deathly still.

Yu Caiwei stood up and walked in front of Zhu Chunfu, her eyes were absolutely cold, "Tell me everything you know about those boys!"

"Tell me, can I live if I tell you?"

"Oh, do you think you can still negotiate with me?"

As if to cooperate with Yu Caiwei, a man's shrill scream suddenly came from the darkness, one after another, each one weaker than the last.

Zhu Chunfu listened carefully and instantly recognized that it was Liu Erhu's voice. His pupils trembled with fear and the fear of death wrapped around his heart like a poisonous snake.

A fishy smell spread out, and he was so scared that he became incontinent.

Zhu Chunfu threw away all his sense of propriety and shame, and said hastily, "I'll tell you everything."

Yu Caiwei smelled that disgusting smell and stood further away in disgust: "Tell me the truth quickly!"
