Chapter 74： No evidence

Chapter 74 No evidence

Han lowered his eyelids, feeling confused.

After the child was born, she knew it was a girl, but she didn’t even look at it.

I don’t even know what she looks like, so there is no evidence to prove it.

However, she seemed to have heard something surprised from the midwife Aunt Wu, but she had forgotten what she said specifically.

what is it?

“I, I was in a daze at the time and couldn’t remember...”

Jiang Sanlang sneered: "Then first tell me how your child was picked up by me."

Han’s:…

She couldn't tell the truth, even if the child was really not lost by herself.

But if it’s a husband, it’s even worse.

Her husband is a scholar, and his reputation is extremely important. She would rather not have a son than prevent him from failing the imperial examination.

Seeing that her daughter-in-law was silent, Mrs. Chen Feng immediately replied: "Because the child is weak and has no energy since he was born, so, so..."

“So you threw her to the river?” Jiang Sanlang asked coldly.

Chen Fengshi nodded quickly: "Yes! We can't leave a dead child at home."

“Then tell me where your child who was born lifeless was left on the river, and why was I picked him up?” Jiang Sanlang asked aggressively.

“Throw it, where was it thrown on the river? I can’t remember the exact location. It’s been so many years…”

Ms. Chen Feng looked at her second daughter-in-law for help, "Ms. Han, do you know?"

Han bit her lip and said nothing.

Husband Chen Changping did not say that he had abandoned the child by the Chuanhe River. He only said that he had abandoned the child in Beishan.

Why did Jiang Sanlang say that the child was by the river? Did he deliberately deceive himself to confuse the public? Or is the child really not his?

But no matter what, the child must be yours!

Jiang Sanlang turned to Sun Lizheng and said: "Li Zheng, my Yingbao has not been frail since she was a child. If you don't believe me, you can ask my neighbors if they have seen my daughter seek medical treatment or take medicine."

Everyone shook their heads: "We have never seen Ying Bao get sick, nor have we seen the Jiang family seek medical treatment for their children."

“Since my child was not frail, how could he become one of the Chen family’s children who was frail and died at birth?”

Jiang Sanlang's eyes were burning, and he turned to Mr. Han: "Or is it because you couldn't give birth to a son, so you listened to the rumors, deliberately deceived me, and wanted to steal my cherry treasure to give you a son?"

Han's eyes dodge and he muttered: "I didn't..."

She was beginning to doubt her previous judgment now. Maybe... maybe the baby girl was not hers at all, but so what.

"Also, my Yingbao was not picked up by the Chuanhe River. I brought her back from the south slope, several miles away from the Chuanhe River." Jiang Sanlang said firmly.

Chan Fengshi Hanshi:…

Chen Laoshuan glared at his second daughter-in-law angrily.

Han wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Sun Lizheng, "Okay, you all can calm down."

Pointed to Chen Laoshuan, "You are the head of the family, but you are fooling around with two women. I won't punish you today, but I can't encourage this evil trend.

Let's do this, you can pay two taels of silver to Jiang Sanlang's family as compensation, and let this be settled. Otherwise, I have to send you to the county government office, and the Ming government will personally try the fraud case. "

He was really fed up with the guys in Xichen Village who were doing all these crooked things instead of doing serious business day after day.

Seeing that the deadline for the autumn tax is approaching, there are still several families in Xicun who have not yet paid. If he does not punish them, they will go to heaven.

Looking at his East Village, there were several households in difficulty last year, but this year they paid their taxes in full early, which saved him a lot of trouble.

When Chen Feng heard that he was going to be fined money, he was not happy, "I said I was honest, why should I be fined money? Even if we admit the wrong person, we don't want to be sentenced like this."

Sun Lizheng slapped the table and scolded: "What? What do you think I should do? Are you going to frame other people's children again and again? Is there any royal law?"

Chen Feng shrank his neck and became silent.

He glared at the second daughter-in-law again.

What a useless thing! There was no evidence, but he dared to persuade her to go to the Jiang family to have a child.

This time I have lost my face to my grandma’s house.

In the end, Chen Laoshuan had no choice but to pay another two taels of silver, otherwise Li Zheng would beat his wife, his second daughter-in-law, and him.

If his daughter took off her pants and spanked her in public, he would have no place to show his face. On the way home, Chen Laoshuan couldn't help scolding the two women, telling them to go back and shut up, and not to tell their second son about this, so as not to affect his study.

Besides, when Jiang Sanlang returned home, Zhou Mao had already collected the goods and left. The villagers also went back their own way.

Hand the two taels of silver to Chun Niang and tell her about the situation at Li Zheng.

"I think Chen Han seems a little unwilling, so we have to be more careful."

Jiang Sanlang sighed, "But that's good, things are finally coming to light."

He had always been worried that someone would come to ask for Yingbao, but when the day finally came, he was relieved when he said it openly.

If you are not afraid of thieves, you are afraid of the thieves. Since you know the moves of their moves, they also have the method of response.

No matter what, he will never give up on his daughter.

“What about the birthmark on Ying Bao’s wrist?” Chun Niang asked worriedly.

Because the little girl always insisted on bathing and changing clothes by herself, Chun Niang didn’t know that the birthmark on her wrist was gone.

In addition, Ying Bao drew a small red turtle for herself. Even if Chun Niang occasionally saw her daughter's wrist, she would only think that the birthmark was covered by her daughter's painting.

Jiang Sanlang frowned and thought, "Let's talk about it then, there is always a way. However, the Chen family did not mention the birthmark on Yingbao's wrist today. They must not know about it at all."

That’s okay, you can think of ideas in secret.

Chunniang thought thoughtfully: "Don't they know that Yingbao has a birthmark on her wrist?"

"It's possible." Jiang Sanlang rubbed his chin, "That's really good."

At this time, Ying Bao poked her head in: "Dad, are you back?"

Jiang Sanlang waved to her, "Bao'er, come here and let your parents see the birthmark on your wrist."

Ying Bao ran in obediently, rolled up her sleeves, and exposed her clean wrists.

The top is completely white, and there is no plum blossom mark from before.

“Huh? Why is it gone?” Chun Niang and Jiang Sanlang were both surprised.

Ying Bao smiled and said, "It was washed away by Bao'er."

She couldn't say that she was burned with charcoal, that would be more difficult to explain and would be very troublesome.

"Wash it off? What did you use to wash it with?" Chun Niang grabbed her daughter's wrists and turned them over.

No more, the birthmark is really gone! There is only a small red mole the size of a needle nose, which cannot be seen without looking carefully.

Chunniang couldn't help but smile.

Jiang Sanlang also breathed a sigh of relief.

This time, I am no longer afraid of any tricks from the Chen family.

“It was washed with golden ears.” Yingbao said with a smile, “It took a long time to wash it.”

Chunniang hugged her daughter, almost crying with joy, and said distressedly: "Bao'er rubbed off a layer of skin." It is estimated that only by peeling off a layer of skin can the birthmark be removed.

Yingbao was speechless.

Let parents misunderstand like this. It’s better to rub off a layer of skin than to scald a piece of meat.

Jiang Sanlang touched his daughter's head and sighed in his heart.

His daughter is so sensible that she actually figured out a way to remove the birthmark.

How should this child's skin be rubbed to remove a birthmark as big as a copper coin? That's with the meat attached.

"Is Bao'er in pain?" he asked, his eyes filled with mist.

“It doesn’t hurt.” Yingbao shook his head.

"Good girl." Chun Niang hugged her daughter tightly and kissed her cheek, "My mother is a good girl."

The twin brothers also came over, stretched out their necks to kiss their sister, "Ajie (Awu) is a good girl."

Ying Bao chuckled and pushed away the heads of the two younger brothers.
