Chapter 29
What an insult!

Qiao Muchao was furious and was about to struggle to resist, but Lao Li sighed and said: "He who understands the current affairs is a hero. Don't get angry, little lady, lest they suffer more if you are angry. If you have anything to say, you should go to the Yamen and talk to him."

Lao Li was well-informed, so Qiao Muchao had no choice but to hang her head and follow them home reluctantly.

Xu Shi had investigated in advance. As soon as the door opened, those people went straight to the inner room and searched for the bag of salt, saying that they had found physical evidence.

"Salt smuggling is a capital crime. Now that there are all witnesses and evidence, what else can you say?" the head catcher asked viciously, holding the bag of salt.

"If I said it was a misunderstanding, would you believe it?" Qiao Muyao said with despair.

People's hearts are indeed unpredictable. She felt sorry for Dongzhi that she didn't have salt for cooking at noon, so she thought of letting her take back a liter first.

Unexpectedly, he became that stupid farmer who saved the snake but was bitten to death by the awakened snake... It's a pity that the farmer didn't know that the snake would bite him, otherwise he would definitely choose to turn a blind eye.

The same was true for Qiao Muchao. She regretted listening to Dongzhi's words. This time it seemed that this was a hole Dongzhi had dug in advance.

The catcher carried the salt bag and took her to the prison car. He roughly pushed her into the car and locked the door with a clang.

Just as they were about to set off, Dongzhi suddenly shouted with a trembling voice: "I am a witness, I want to go too!"

The carriage rolled over the rocks, making a squeaking sound, drowning out Sister Dongzhi's words in the crowd. Qiao Muchao sat in the prison carriage with despair, thinking that she would never help others easily again, lest she be bitten back.

In the bullock cart behind them, Li Zheng followed with Chang Guihua, Chang Wenhui and others.

In the memory of the original owner, the salt and iron laws of this era were very strict. Once the crime was confirmed, he would indeed be sentenced to death!
Qiao Muyao's heart felt cold, thinking that she had given so much extra salt, why did Dongzhi's sister-in-law still treat her like this? Man, what should I do to get sincerity?
……

The breeze shuttles through the bamboo forest, making the bamboo leaves rustle and whistle.

The academy is particularly quiet under the twilight. Most of the students who live nearby or have money to take a bus have left by dinner time.

Most of the students staying in the dormitory are far away from home like An Jingchen.After having dinner with his two roommates in the kitchen, An Jingchen lay on the bed with his hands behind his head and rested as usual.

At this moment, what appeared in his mind was Qiao Muyao wearing a long skirt and a little makeup. Thinking of her every move, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but curl up into a smile.He remembered that day when she peeled bamboo shoots and put them into his bowl, his heart was moved. Didn't he say that there were three chapters of agreement?Didn’t you say you should do your own thing?Haha, that woman is indeed hard-spoken and soft-hearted.

The reason why I didn't drink the decoction that time was because she didn't shy away from him, chatted enthusiastically with Chang Wu, and didn't take herself seriously at all.

But listening to her gentle words of advice, the ice in her heart suddenly melted. She... she still cares about herself after all, right?
I thought she was just a wife in name and I would never fall in love with her in my life.

But who would have thought that when he saw her lying on Chang Wu's back, staring at him so softly, he suddenly felt a little bit disgusted...

She said that I didn't want it, but Chang Caiwei was just begging for words, so she was jealous indiscriminately, and she didn't believe that she really didn't care.

If you really don't care, why did you flirt with yourself like that yesterday, and call you husband in front of outsiders, saying something about a quarrel at the head of the bed, and a fight at the end of the bed? This woman is indeed duplicitous, but she still refuses to admit that she is jealous...

An Jingchen was smiling with such a cheerful face when he suddenly heard Zhao Yuanlin shouting: "Brother An, Brother An, what are you laughing at? We haven't seen you smile since your mother passed away. I thought you didn't Will laugh."

The smile on An Jingchen's face disappeared instantly and returned to his usual seriousness, "Have I ever laughed?"

Zhao Yuanlin was dumbfounded, "You...you just laughed clearly, Brother Yu can testify."

"Yes, it's been a long time since I saw you smiling so happily." Yu Zian teased with a smile, "But thinking of your wife?"

An Jingchen didn't bother to pay attention, so he simply got up and straightened his clothes, planning to start copying books.

But as soon as he picked up the pen, Chang Junjie, with a bruised nose and swollen face, pushed the door open and barged in with a bang.

Everyone was shocked, especially Yu Zian. When they saw him, they immediately made a long face and said angrily: "You are such a big man and you can't even knock on the door. Do you still know etiquette?"

Chang Junjie seemed not to have heard, and looked at An Jingchen with a proud look on his face and said, "Sure enough, God is watching what people do, haha, your wife only ruined my sister's reputation at noon, and it's not even dark yet." It’s really a joy to be sent to prison!”
