It has been two days since his son was arrested in the magistrate's yamen. Wei Jianxiong tried his best, and the money was spent like running water, but he couldn't get his son back.

Under the double psychological and physical torture, he, who was only in his thirties, looked ten years older.

He who was originally full of black hair also began to turn gray at the temples.

The old butler looked at the slumped master sitting in the living room, and felt very uncomfortable, "If it really doesn't work, then go and ask the eldest lady."

The eldest lady he was talking about was Wei Jianxiong's own sister, Wei Zhenzhen, the original wife of the current head of the Lian family.

Wei Jianxiong's bloodshot eyes suddenly shot out a ray of hope.

Yes.

He can ask his sister and brother-in-law, they will definitely not refuse to save him.

"Thank you, Uncle Wei. If you hadn't reminded me, I might still be wasting time for nothing." I grabbed the old housekeeper's withered hand excitedly.

"Master, I'll ask someone to prepare a carriage for you." Patting the back of his hand, the old housekeeper turned and left.

The old housekeeper, Wei Lin, was an abandoned baby adopted by Wei Jianxiong's grandfather. He stayed in Wei's mansion as a housekeeper after he grew up, and experienced three heads of the family.

Now that he is an octogenarian, he is still working hard for the Wei Mansion.

……

Lianfu.

When Wei Jianxiong rushed to Lianfu, when he saw his sister, he was already in tears.

"Brother, what's the matter with you?" Wei Zhenzhen supported the emotionally shaken elder brother.

"Zhenzhen, you must save Jiaren!"

"What's wrong with Jiaren? Brother, you are talking."

Hearing that something happened to her most beloved nephew, Wei Zhenzhen's heart also tugged.

Wei Jianxiong wiped away his tears and said bitterly: "It's all Zhao Kunlie's fault. If he hadn't teased Jiaren's child, Jiaren would not have faked my order and sold the moldy rice to Rongji."

"You should know that I signed a three-year contract with the Rong family. If I break the contract, I will pay five times the compensation."

"Now not only has the contract been broken, Jia Ren's child has also been arrested and taken to the magistrate's yamen."

"It's been two days. I tried my best and spent a lot of money, but I still couldn't rescue him."

Wei Zhenzhen also had a hard time after hearing this, "Brother, don't worry, let me think about it."

"Do you have any evidence to prove that Zhao Kunlie is the mastermind behind the scenes?"

Wei Jianxiong shook his head, tears streaming down his face again, "No, they met alone, and no third person knew about it."

"This is going to be difficult. Why don't you ask the Rong family? As long as the Rong family doesn't sue Jiaren, there is still hope." Wei Zhenzhen said with a frown.

"On the day when the incident happened, I went to the Rong Mansion with a heavy gift, and the elder of the Rong family did not agree to withdraw the lawsuit at all." He said discouragedly.

Lian Kangcheng, who walked out of the study after dealing with the business of the store, saw Wei Jianxiong's somewhat hunched body, and asked, "What's wrong, brother-in-law? Why are you so haggard?"

"Hey, it's a long story." He winked at Wei Zhenzhen, motioning for her to talk.

Wei Zhenzhen wiped away her tears, and recounted the incident, blaming all the mistakes on Zhao Kunlie, the instigator, and the Rong family who killed them all.

On the contrary, Wei Jiaren, who was able to forge his father's order, was the most pitiful victim.

She thought that what she said was perfect, and that everyone should pity her and stand by her to condemn Zhao and Rong's family.

She also didn't want to think that sitting opposite her was her husband who had lived with her for more than 20 years and knew her better than herself.

Lian Kangcheng couldn't understand her little thoughts, but he didn't bluntly expose her tricks.

After all, his good nephew is considered to be Ji Rongji restaurant, so he has done him a big favor by mistake.

It not only ruined the reputation of Rongji Restaurant, but also brought many guests of Rongji Restaurant to Baiweiju.

In just half a month, his Baiweiju earned the profits of the previous three months.

He thought for a moment, and said in a difficult way: "This matter is not easy to handle. The chain of evidence from the prefect's yamen is complete. If you want to reverse the case through formal channels, the chances of winning are very slim."

Hearing this, Wei Jianxiong's heart went completely cold, and he sat down on the chair, looking at one place with dull eyes.

Wei Zhenzhen grabbed her husband's sleeve and begged: "Master, you should think of a way to save my poor nephew, the Wei family has only one seedling."

"Ma'am, don't worry, listen to me." He patted the back of Wei Zhenzhen's hand, signaling her to be calm.

Then he went on to say: "Madam also said just now that a shopkeeper of the rice shop was also taken away with Jiaren's nephew. If the shopkeeper can be persuaded to plead guilty and take all the responsibilities..."

Wei Jianxiong suddenly realized, stood up and gave him a deep salute in joy, "My brother-in-law's words are really enlightening, and it makes people feel enlightened. I will prepare a generous gift and come to the door in person."

"It's urgent, brother, take the first step, and leave."

"Brother, go slowly."

The husband and wife got up and saw each other off.

……

The next morning, after watching Xiao Si Si leave the house as usual, Lu Qing returned to Youlan Residence to work on her small medicine garden.

The herbs planted a few days ago are growing very well, and the emergence rate of the seeds is also high. As long as they are watered regularly, fertilization will not be a big problem.

While fertilizing the small medicine garden, she was thinking about the purchase channels of the medical center opposite.

For things like Chinese herbal medicines, not only depends on whether they are good or not, but some also depend on their age, where they were produced, etc. All in all, it is very troublesome.

She must strictly control the first purchase, otherwise the patient will be spoiled, it is not a joke.

Moreover, the medical clinic needs manpower to pick up the medicine, decoct it and deliver it. She can't see the doctor alone, and she has to take care of all the work.

Lu Qing pondered that the time he traveled here was too short, and the only friends he knew were Linyuan Wang and his wife.

Maybe you have to be cheeky and ask for one or two.

Before she finished the work in hand, she saw Xiao Sisi who had just left the house not long ago, and came back in a hurry.

"Si Si, what happened in such a hurry?" She patted the residue on her hands and asked.

Rong Jinsi frowned, her face was full of anger, and when she saw her questioning, she suppressed her anger and tried to make her voice softer.

"It's nothing serious. Husband doesn't need to worry. I have something to discuss with my uncle. Let's go ahead."

Blessing her body, I didn't know what I took into the house, and left quickly.

From the beginning to the end, the low air pressure was maintained.

Qiao'er, who Lu Qingchao wanted to follow, waved, "What's wrong with Si Si?"

Qiaoer hesitated to speak, hesitated for a moment, gritted her teeth and stomped her feet, and said bitterly: "My lord, you don't know, the lady sent someone to the magistrate's yamen to inquire about Wei Ji's rice shop. , the shopkeeper Xue of Weiji Rice Shop suddenly retracted his confession during the sudden interrogation at night."

"Not only did he say that he put the blame on the Young Master's family, but even after returning to the prison cell, he hit his head against the wall and died on the spot."

"Early this morning, Wei Jiaren, the young owner of Weiji Rice Shop, was acquitted on the grounds of insufficient evidence."

"Furthermore, Wei Jianxiong, the owner of Weiji Rice Shop, personally came to the door and handed over three times the liquidated damages. Even diners who ate moldy rice grains also paid corresponding compensation."

It stands to reason that there is nothing wrong with the owner of Weiji Rice Shop doing this.

Putting it in the Huaguo of Water Blue Star, it is a conscientious businessman, a role model that will be forgiven and praised by the people.

But hearing Qiao'er's tone of voice is not kind, presumably there is something hidden in it.

Sure enough, what Qiaoer said next further confirmed her guess.

Qiao'er paused and continued: "It would be fine if the matter was resolved in this way, but the problem lies with the father and son."

"The owner of Weiji Rice Shop personally admitted that on the day of the incident, he personally met with the father and son, and wanted to ask them to let the only son live."

"But the Elder Master not only rejected Dong Wei's proposal, but also sarcastically insulted him, and threatened that he would never let it go."

"Miss doesn't know anything about it. Now it's all right. In order to save their son, Wei Dong's family sacrificed the shopkeeper Xue who had worked for Wei Ji Rice Shop for most of his life."

"It can be said that Rong Ji and Wei Ji have completely formed a deadly feud. Dong Wei's family has a lot of face in Linyuan City's rice and grain. As long as he speaks out, no one will dare to sell grain to Rong Ji."

"Uncle, you said that the Eldest Master and the others are just messing around."

Lu Qing didn't expect that there would be this episode.

She patted the top of Qiao'er's hair, said with a smile: "Okay, there's nothing to be angry about, go and see if your lady has been bullied by the elder."

Hearing what she said, the little maid, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, let out a strange cry, turned around and ran away.

Seeing the little maid running away, the smile on Lu Qing's face gradually faded, and his eyes were dim.

"Wei Jianxiong? Interesting." She murmured softly.

……

In the octagonal pavilion in the inner courtyard of Linyuan Palace, Lu Qing and Qi Jingxuan sat facing each other.

Lu Qing put down the teacup in his hand and said with a smile: "Old Qi, you still have a lot of wealth. Look at the precious flowers in your yard, I'm afraid they are worth a lot of money."

Qi Jingxuan pointed at her and scolded with a smile: "You are a real person, it is really hateful for you to speak hurtful words the first time you come to the door."

Princess Mi Yunting of Linyuan came slowly in a luxurious long dress, followed by two maidservants holding trays.

Putting the cakes in the tray on the stone table with his own hands, he smiled gracefully, "You two bicker when you meet, and if you don't know it, you think you are going to fight."

"With her slender arms and legs, do you still want to beat this king?" She cast a sideways glance at Lu Qing arrogantly, took Wang Hao's hand, and asked her to sit down beside her.

Lu Qing pursed her lips in disdain, but said nothing, it was to save her some face in front of his wife.

"These are pastries made by myself, Xiao Lu can taste if it suits his appetite." Pushing the pastry plate towards her.

"Then I have to try my sister-in-law's handicraft." Picking up a piece of pastry and taking a bite, he couldn't help but praise, "The taste is sweet but not greasy, it melts in the mouth, it's delicious."

"Eat more if it tastes good, and bring some back later so that Jinsi can taste it too." Mi Yunting had a very good impression of Rong Jinsi, seeing her was like seeing herself back then.

There is always a sense of sympathy and care for her.

The author has something to say: Little Theater:

Rong Jinsi: "Husband, don't stop me, I'm going to kill Rong Xiaochang and his son!"

Lu Qing: "Don't get excited, Si Si, killing people is against the law, and you have to pay with your life."

Rong Jinsi stopped struggling, straightened her dress, calmly pointed at Rong Xiaochang and his son who were huddled together, "Husband, go and kill them for me."

Lu Qing turned his head with a stiff neck, unbelievable, "Sisi, are you possessed by a ghost? Mom, come out and see my little Sisi!"

The author of the mother: "The identification is correct, it is indeed Rong Jin Si Ben Si."

Lu Qing suddenly!
