After being persuaded by Ah Jiu, Wufu’s anger subsided a bit. She sat down with a light snort, but still looked at Hua Wushuang with unfriendly eyes.
"I really don’t want to take the child away, I just feel that the child is young, having just lost his mother..." Hua Wushuang was a bit at a loss: "No matter whether you consider this the i Family’s guilt or whatever, all compensations should be given to him. Regardless, he is the grandson of the i Family, and he is my nephew, and you are my niece."
Wufu said nothing.
"He does have good intentions. Look at the two wet nurses he invited; they take good care of the child," said Ah Jiu.
Wufu recalled the younger brother she had just seen today. He had grown a bit since his birth and seed a bit more spirited, and her heart softened.
"Let’s leave this for later. As for your mother’s affair, how do you plan to proceed?" Hua Wushuang knew bringing up the child now might cause an uproar and chose not to ntion it for the ti being.
Wufu’s expression turned cold, and her whole aura beca chilling and severe as she said, "Naturally, it’s revenge for revenge, grievance for grievance."
Ah Jiu held her hand, and Wufu pressed her lips together in response.
Seeing their interaction, Hua Wushuang felt a bit dazed.
Ah Jiu beckoned for Purple Jade and the others to co in and report on matters.
During the days of mourning, i Er had been secretly investigating many things. He didn’t need to find ways to dig up dirt on Madam Wang; instead, he went straight to the ho of that Nanny Wei, who was by Madam Wang’s side, and captured her son and grandson. Through intimidation, Nanny Wei confessed.
But in her confession, she took all the bla upon herself, simply claiming she wanted to ease her mistress’s mind. Such an explanation couldn’t deceive i Er, who had worked in intelligence for years. He said nothing but imdiately cut off two fingers of her son and threw them over, scaring her into speaking truthfully about Madam Wang’s instructions, explaining everything clearly: the reasons, the thods of poisoning.
"Both her son and grandson were given poison. Without our antidote, they won’t survive, so Nanny Wei agreed to testify against Madam Wang," said i Er. "To prevent Madam Wang from suspecting, Nanny Wei even broke her own leg to lie at ho."
In his view, Nanny Wei seed ready to betray Madam Wang; otherwise, how could she be so ruthless to herself?
Ah, won, once they have weaknesses, they can betray at the drop of a hat.
Wufu said, "As long as it’s proven she did it, there’s no need for any testimony.
Whether she lives or suffers a fate worse than death depends solely on her decision.
"Miss, Madam Lu and her daughter are still locked in the woodshed. Should we bring them over?" Purple Jade asked. Seeing Wufu nod, soone went to bring the two of them over.
"Madam Lu and her daughter were just used by Madam Wang as a tool and didn’t know about the poison," i Er said.
Wufu looked over and asked, "Are you trying to say those who are unaware are not guilty?"
"I wouldn’t dare!"
"With , there’s no immunity for ignorance. They, especially Madam Lu, repeatedly provoked my mother and even viciously cursed her. Those are cris. Their ignorance doesn’t equate to innocence," Wufu said coldly.
Both of them are insatiably greedy. Zhou Xiuer had long said that sachet was a gift from Wu Yining. Would Purple Jade let her wear it constantly? And that golden hairpin.
True, they didn’t know, but they’re not innocent; they’re the indirect murderers of Madam Zhou, the knives that killed her.
The act of the murderer is a grave sin, and being the knife is equally so.
Soone wandered outside, Purple Jade went out, and soon returned to report: "Miss, Madam Lu is dead!"
Wufu raised an eyebrow. Dead?
