Chapter 312

Listening to Wu Sanshen's words, Jiang Xiaoxiao almost instantly understood the reason why the Zhao Family wanted the document of breaking off kinship.

Heh, this Zhao Family was truly sinister and vicious to the extreme, actually wanting to use such a method to deal with her family.

Previously, with Lord Xie and County Magistrate Du around, the Zhao Family didn't dare to easily offend their family, so they hadn't made a move. She thought the Zhao Family would stop there, but she didn't expect them to have the guts to find someone to steal the document of breaking off kinship, intending to use the laws of the Dayin to deal with them!

In Dayin, filial piety was greater than heaven. Once it was confirmed that they abused their parents-in-law or biological parents, they would inevitably be punished.

Once they succeeded, even with County Magistrate Du around, their family would not be able to escape the crime.

"It has nothing to do with you?" Jiang Wei glared coldly at Wu Sanshen, "You also know that all of this has nothing to do with you, then why did you still intervene to help the Zhao Family? Just for that mere two hundred taels of silver!?"

After saying this, she swept a glance at the jewelry all over the floor and said coldly: "Xiaoxiao, do it. Pierce her Shanzhong acupoint, use as much strength as you have."

Jiang Xiaoxiao held the silver needle and aimed at Wu Sanshen again.

"N-no..." Wu Sanshen was truly terrified, crying with tears and snot streaming down, "Please spare me this once, I won't dare again, I'll do whatever you want, please let me go..."

"Do whatever I want?" Jiang Wei narrowed her eyes and looked at Wu Sanshen, "Is it really whatever I want?"

Wu Sanshen didn't have time to wipe the snot and tears on her face and nodded repeatedly.

Jiang Wei gave Jiang Xiaoxiao a look.

Jiang Xiaoxiao immediately understood and obediently stepped back, retreating behind her mother.

She knew that her mother was about to start setting up Wu Sanshen.

Only to see Jiang Wei slowly bend down, gently pull out the silver needle stuck in Wu Sanshen's Jianjing acupoint, and say: "Since that's the case, then you go back and report the news to the Zhao Family, saying that you have already found that document of breaking off kinship, and let them do whatever they want to do, boldly and confidently."

"Ah, this, this..." Wu Sanshen's painful face suddenly carried some hesitation. After this incident, she had already learned the terrifying nature of the Jiang mother and daughter, but she dared not offend the Zhao Family even more.

If she were discovered by the Zhao Family helping Jiang Shi deceive them, her end would not be any better.

However, under the gaze of Jiang Wei's gloomy and cold eyes, Wu Sanshen still braced herself and agreed.

Agree first, and if it came to the worst, she could secretly run away. Anyway, the Zhao Family had already given her one hundred taels of silver in advance...

The next second, Jiang Wei's voice sounded again: "Open your mouth."

"Ah?" Wu Sanshen was stunned for a moment, not understanding why she was asked to open her mouth for no reason.

Just as she opened her mouth, a black pill suddenly shot into it.

Wu Sanshen choked. The black pill melted as soon as it entered her mouth. Before she could react, the pill was swallowed into her throat mixed with saliva.

Jiang Xiaoxiao's voice sounded at the right time: "Eh, Mother, what is the effect of that pill?"

Jiang Wei said: "Corpse-Rotting Pill. After taking it, if you don't get the antidote within three days, your whole body will rot and die."

Wu Sanshen was just lamenting that the pill tasted pretty good, but suddenly hearing this, her face instantly turned pale.

She hurriedly lay on the ground, struggling to hook her throat, wanting to vomit out the pill she had just swallowed.

"Don't waste your effort." Jiang Wei's voice sounded in her ear again, "That Corpse-Rotting Pill is effective as long as you touch a little bit. Even if you vomit it out, there will still be residual drug effects in your body. Moreover, in this world, except for my antidote, no one can unlock the Corpse-Rotting Pill."

Hearing this, Wu Sanshen instantly felt like her heart was dead.

Jiang Xiaoxiao looked at Wu Sanshen's departing back with a smile, then took out an exquisitely packaged box, took out a black pill that Wu Sanshen had just eaten, and threw it into her mouth. Mm, this chocolate is really delicious...

She chewed the chocolate while asking: "Mother, why did you let Wu Sanshen go back to find the Zhao Family, and even say such things?"

Jiang Wei was tidying up the drawer of jewelry and ornaments, and hearing this, she didn't raise her head and said: "Just like you said earlier, how can our family guard against thieves for a thousand days? It's better to use this opportunity to teach the Zhao Family a lesson. They want to use the laws of Dayin to fix us, so we can also use the laws of Dayin to accuse them of defamation."

Hearing this, Jiang Xiaoxiao nodded thoughtfully. This was indeed a good way.

But the Zhao Family was a rich merchant in Qingping County, and she didn't know who was supporting them behind their backs. Teaching the Zhao Family a lesson was easy, but if she wanted to completely eliminate this matter, she still had to completely solve the trouble of the Zhao Family...

Early the next morning, Wu Sanshen went to the town and rented a horse carriage to Qingping County without daring to delay for a moment.

After all, the poison only had three days, and there wasn't much time left for her.

When she arrived in front of the Zhao Family gate, she didn't have time to catch her breath before asking the servant in front of the gate to go in and report quickly, saying that the Wu family from Yuhe Village requested an audience.

The servant saw that she was sweating profusely from anxiety and didn't dare to delay, so he went back to report.

The servant soon came out, gave Wu Sanshen a strange look, and then said: "Follow me."

After saying this, he led Wu Sanshen from the back door directly to the Zhao Family's backyard.

The backyard had always been the place where the female family members lived. The Zhao Family's backyard not only had many women but also many maids and old women serving people. People were coming and going, and one couldn't imagine what kind of extravagant life the people inside were living.

In the past, if Wu Sanshen saw this, she would definitely be envious and jealous, but now she was thinking about the poison on her body, and there was only one thought in her heart: hurry up and see the Zhao Family's Madam, and go back to find Jiang Wei for the antidote.

When she saw Zheng Shi, before the other party could speak, Wu Sanshen knelt on the ground with a thud and cried: "Madam, this commoner failed to handle the matter well and didn't do what you ordered."

Zheng Madam sat in the main seat, drinking the Biluochun tea sent by the maid, and stood up abruptly upon hearing this: "What did you say?!"

Wu Sanshen hurriedly kowtowed and said: "Madam, this commoner originally went to steal that document of breaking off kinship according to your orders, but unexpectedly, there was a mistake in the middle, causing that document of breaking off kinship to no longer be in my hands."

Zheng Shi put down the teacup fiercely and frowned: "What exactly happened? Tell me truthfully."

Wu Sanshen wiped her tears and said: "Last night, I took advantage of Jiang Shi not being at home and sneaked into her house. I finally found the document of breaking off kinship, but unexpectedly, when I was passing by the river in our village on the way home, I was tripped by a stone on the side of the road and fell. That document of breaking off kinship accidentally fell into the river and disappeared..."

Wu Sanshen was sobbing while speaking, but Zheng Shi's tightly furrowed brows gradually relaxed.

"Disappeared, even better." She picked up the teacup again and took a light sip, "I originally wanted to destroy that document of breaking off kinship, but..."

Her tone suddenly changed: "Are you really not lying to me?"
