Lan Yin didn't believe a word of what she said, "There is a blue sky above your head, and a god three feet above the ground. Why did you frame him for nothing?"
Lan Ruo cried harder, and regardless of her face, she took off a few inches of her clothes. There were bruises all over her body. Lan Yin was shocked, "What the hell is going on with you?"
"Sister, you would rather trust outsiders than your own sister? You are so heartbroken!"
Zhao Lanyin couldn't explain this situation, but she felt that Sun Qingchen's clear eyes did not look like someone who would do such a thing, so she said, "This matter must be taken long-"
Halfway through his words, he was slapped by Mrs. Xu until his eyesight went black.
"Mother." Her eyes were red.
"I have always known that you are an immature brat. I never thought that you would even suspect your sister."
Zhao Qingyun was upset by their quarrel and ordered his servants to report to the officials with their names and send Sun Qingchen to the county. He secretly sent a hundred taels of gold to the county magistrate, so that Sun Qingchen must be captured and brought to justice.
After receiving the bribe, the county magistrate immediately went to court.
Beat Sun Qingchen until he was almost alive.
They pressed his handprints and stamped them, writing them as a capital offense, and ordered him to be shackled and imprisoned.
The servant hurriedly returned to the mansion and explained the matter to Miss Lan Yin.
After hearing this, Lan Yin felt as if he had lost his footing while standing on a tall building, "Interrogation by poison?"
She had been with Lan Ruo for the past few days, and every time she asked her, she insisted that it was Sun Qingchen who did it. But if she asked her more carefully, what clothes Sun Qingchen was wearing that day, and what he said, she still couldn't believe it. He said he couldn't remember clearly.
When Lan asked again, she cried and said she was cruel and asked her to remember such terrible things over and over again.
Lan Yin was now almost certain that her sister had indeed lied, but she could not make her tell the truth. Why she wronged Sun Qingchen, Lan Yin did not understand.
At this time, Lan Yin provoked Lingling to shudder, "It seems that my father is determined to kill him this time. I have to find out what happened."
In the prison, someone knocked on the iron lock a few times and shouted, "Sun Qingchen, someone is here to see you off!"
He raised his eyes, saw who it was, and opened his eyes angrily, "Get out!"
"I know you don't want to see the Zhao family now, but I want to help you."
"I owe everything I have today to your Zhao family." The blood on his face had scabbed over, but there was no one to clean it for him.
I'm afraid that here, we don't even have water to drink.
Zhao Lanyin took out the water bag from his sleeve, moistened it and handed it to him, saying, "Wipe your face first."
When she met him for the first time, Lan Yin knew that this man cared a lot about dignity. He could bow down and sell wine in a tavern, but Lin Zhen's words shocked her so much that she didn't dare to raise her head in front of her. He had low self-esteem and was cowardly.
Such talent is like a pearl covered in dust.
Sun Qingchen threw away the veil, "Are you here to laugh at me?"
"No, I believe you, so I want to help you figure out the truth."
He sneered, "The truth? The truth is that I went to the Zhao family to break off the engagement with good intentions. I was afraid that I would miss your future, but I was wrongly accused by the Zhao family and innocently imprisoned."
He looked into Zhao Lanyin's eyes and said, "You don't have to pretend to be compassionate. Your father was worried about my entanglement in the future, so he came up with this trick to ensure that I wouldn't take away your Zhao family's property. But what do you really think? I can do it all without even giving up my daughter’s face!”
Zhao Lanyin couldn't help but shed tears, "No, there must be a misunderstanding. When I find out, I will give you an explanation. Our Zhao family is not a family that is harmful to nature and justice."
"Go away, I don't want to see you." He said.
Zhao Lanyin placed the golden sore medicine beside him and the water bag in front of him before leaving.
She suppressed her anger and smiled, "Why do you want to see me, big sister?"
Lan Yin said, "She always tells you when she has something on her mind. You must know what happened to her."
She shook her head, "I don't know. Didn't she tell her parents? It was Sun who ruined her innocence."
"You lied to me," she said.
"You just have to know whether it's a lie or not. He's just a drunkard, but my father can still handle it well. You and I don't have to worry."
"You know that this matter has nothing to do with Sun Qingchen, right?"
"Sister, let me tell you, if Sun Qingchen doesn't plead guilty, Lan Ruoke will be completely destroyed."
"What you said is..." She gradually realized that Lan Ruo had cut off all his options of escape by taking this step.
"Whether you want Lan Ruo to live or Sun Qingchen to live, it all depends on you."
In an instant, he arrived outside Lan Ruo's door and could only hear the mother and daughter talking inside.
She stopped and heard the words inside.
"You silly girl, if your father finds out, he will definitely kill you."
"So I won't let him know and let Sun Qingchen take the blame."
"How could you lose your virginity to Baili Fuen?"
"Mother, you must never tell my father about this. He will definitely say that I ruined the family tradition and did not care about the Zhao family's face."
"Forget it, mother will find a family for you that you can support in the future, and this matter will be over. Although it is not decent, it is better than finding out that you are not a virgin after you marry into that family."
…
Listening to the conversation between mother and daughter, Lan Yin suddenly understood everything.
She entered the hall, bowed deeply to Zhao Qingyun, and said, "Happy daddy."
Zhao Qingyun said: "Sit down and talk."
She sat down aside.
"What business did you come to the front hall to discuss?"
She said: "My daughter is here to beg her father to let Sun Qingchen live. He also has a seriously ill mother in bed at home."
Zhao Qingyun said: "You only care about turning your elbows outward. Have you ever thought about your sister? My wife said you were cruel in the past. I just realized today that she was right in every sentence."
No matter how smart a woman is, she is in a dilemma at this time. Compared with her biological sister and a person she has only met a few times, she hesitates after all. But only she knows that the person she has only met a few times is in her heart. Symbolizing justice, he lost justice as soon as the case was tried.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but shed tears on her cheeks, and her heart was cut.
Zhao Qingyun said angrily: "You are really a despicable person. It's annoying. You actually shed tears for someone you have never met, but you don't care about your sister at all!"
She stood up and said, "Being poor but being able to guard yourself is like a saint; being rich but not benevolent is like a beast."
"You are familiar with the Five Classics and Four Books, but it is so chilling to learn so much!" He raised his hand to hit Lan Yin.
It didn't fall on her after all.
"Get out, don't let me see you!" he said angrily.
Someone came to the door of Sun's house, banged the door several times with his hand, and shouted: "Mrs. Sun, open the door quickly!"
The old lady, her mother-in-law, and her daughter-in-law were chatting in the thatched cottage when they suddenly heard a knock on the door and said, "Go out and take a look. Who is knocking on the door?"
The daughter-in-law said: "It's probably Qingchen's child."
Then he walked out of the thatched cottage and came to the gate. He looked out through the crack in the door and said, "Is this the second brother from my neighbor?"
The neighbor said, "Hurry up and open the door. If you have something to say to your wife!"
Sun Qingchen's mother opened the door, and the neighbor asked, "Where is the old lady?"
She said: "In the hall."
After following Sun's daughter-in-law into the thatched cottage, the old lady asked, "What do you want? The door was very tight."
