Jiang Ning stopped suddenly and turned around suddenly. Butler Zhu almost ran into him, but fortunately he turned a corner in time and fell into the grass. He quickly stood up and patted the dirt on his body.

"I'm sorry, you said you found it?" Jiang Ning said urgently.

Butler Zhu nodded repeatedly, "I'll leave this matter to Zhu San. You might as well call Zhu San in person for questioning. He knows best."

Jiang Ning immediately asked Butler Zhu to turn around and return to Dongli Villa.

As soon as the two returned to the mansion, Butler Zhu called Zhu San over, "Please tell me about the copper hairpin."

"Yes!" Zhu San nodded and bowed, glanced at Jiang Ning humbly, and replied respectfully: "Madam, that day when I was young, I went to Zhenbao Pavilion and asked the shopkeeper. I learned from the shopkeeper that the man selling hairpins was a fisherman, and he should be from the east of the city. From the fishing village, the shopkeeper also said that the man's mother-in-law was seriously ill and needed life-saving money. Combining these points, the young man found a family in Hankou Village who was in this situation.

Then I personally went to Hankou Village to inquire and learned that the man's name was Xin Cun. "

Jiang Ning looked disappointed and murmured to himself, "How come your surname is Xin?"

Zhu San paused and said hesitantly: "Although the man's name is Xin Cun, the man's wife has the same surname as his wife."

Jiang Ning's eyes suddenly lit up, "What's your name?"

"People in the village call her Jiang Xiaoqiu. Above the two of them is a blind elder who looks to be in her forties. People in the village call her Blind, and above them there is a white-haired mother-in-law who is in her fifties or sixties. People in the village seem to Call her Grandma Tao, yes, her surname is Tao, which should be Tao Guan. This person doesn’t have the same surname as the couple, so I can’t guess their relationship. People in the fishing village are very wary, and I’m afraid of asking too many questions. People are suspicious and don't dare to ask anymore." Zhu San was a little uneasy. If he had known that Madam took this matter so seriously, he would have asked again about everything.

Jiang Ning lowered his eyes and said quietly after a while: "It's not Tao, but Tao Hua. Butler Zhu, get ready and come with me to Hankou Village."

Butler Zhu asked cautiously: "Madam, do you need to make any preparations?"

Jiang Ning thought about the appearance of those people in his memory, pondered for a while, then shook his head, "Just go to the city and buy some things."

Zhu San had been to Hankou Village, so it was natural for him to drive and lead the way.

It was already after noon when we arrived. The fishing village was a bit quiet and the roads in the village were not easy to walk. Jiang Ning could only get off the car and walk into the village with Butler Zhu.

The two of them found a dilapidated stone house in the direction Zhu San said. Before they even reached the door, they heard bursts of sobbing coming from inside.

"Mother-in-law, it's not that I don't want children, it's just that I'm powerless. Spring has left early and I have to be a widow for him while I'm still young. You are also a woman, why can't you understand me? Mother-in-law! I beg you, please let me go. ! I really can’t bear it! Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooah ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh help me.

Mrs. Gong's mother-in-law, Mrs. Guo, pursed her lips and said nothing. She could not see her eyes and could only hear her voice to identify her position. She didn't even know how far Gong was from her.

Mother Gong suppressed her anger and glared at Mrs. Guo, "It's not a matter of words! Mother Dachun, you have to be conscientious! My daughter became a widow only three months after marrying into your family. Even so, she still gritted her teeth and gave birth to the child. Come down and leave a trace of Dachun's blood, she is worthy of your Jiang family, if you really don't let her go, we will talk about it everywhere and let everyone comment!"

Mrs. Tao's face changed slightly, and she tremblingly tried to dissuade Mother Gong, "Amei, mother, don't get excited. We didn't say we wouldn't let Amei go, but you are also aware of the situation at home. Our Xiaoqiu is sick. She is seriously ill." It's very serious, Dachun can't see his mother, and I really can't take care of so many people as an old woman. If Amei leaves at this time, what will happen to the children?"

Mother Gong was furious, her voice rising several times, "If you can't support us, we will give it to other people! What? You still want to tie up my daughter with your child for the rest of her life! Your wickedness is smoking!" Mrs. Tao was yelled at. If you dare to talk back, you can’t even raise your head.

The children in the room were probably frightened awake by Mother Gong's roar, and howled loudly. Ms. Gong raised his head and looked into the room for a while, with tears in his eyes, but he still resisted going in.

When Mrs. Guo saw her children crying like this, Mrs. Gong didn't feel soft. Her last bit of hope was completely wiped out. She tremblingly touched the wall and walked into the house. She stopped as soon as she touched the door. The corner of her mouth twitched and said: "If you want to leave, just leave! Take your things and don't come back again!"

Gong's mother was so happy that she pulled Gong away.

"Can't leave!" Jiang Qiu walked out of the room weakly with Xin Cun's support, "Auntie, we can't let her go! Sister-in-law! Our family spent two taels of silver to marry you, and my eldest brother also wanted to make money for you. You will risk your life only if you want to live a good life. Now that his body is still cold, you have to abandon your child and leave. Even if my mother-in-law agrees, I will not agree!"

"Ha! What's the matter with you! You have no place to speak here!" Gong's mother spat on the ground angrily, not taking Jiang Xiaoqiu seriously.

Jiang Xiaoqiu clenched her fists, and her pale face turned a little red from anger. She did not look at Gong's mother, but only stared at Gong, "Sister-in-law, do you really want to be so heartless?"

Gong lowered his head and did not respond.

Jiang Xiaoqiu was extremely disappointed, "If you leave today, I will never be at odds with you in the future!"

Mrs. Gong raised her head pitifully, "Xiao Qiu, I know that your eldest brother has a deep love for me, and I can't help him, but I really can't help it. My mother-in-law has already shown me the relationship again, and she has changed Geng Tie, I also accepted a betrothal gift from others, I must get married."

Everyone in the Jiang family changed their faces.

Mother Gong, however, did not feel any shame at being exposed. Instead, she was very proud, "I am much richer than you, and I don't mind that my daughter is a widow. I gave her a betrothal gift of three taels, as well as fabrics and snacks. When you married my daughter, you I gave two taels of silver and nothing else. If it weren’t for Dachun’s sincerity towards my daughter, would I have agreed to this marriage? If I had known that he was a short-lived ghost, I would not have agreed to anything he said at the beginning. Marry your daughter over!"

Mother Gong's words almost made Mrs. Guo faint from anger, and even Mrs. Tao was so angry that she couldn't speak.

Jiang Ning outside couldn't stand listening anymore and walked into the courtyard, "Report it to the official! You will go to jail for selling other people's wives privately."

Everyone looked at the courtyard door. Guo couldn't see it and was the first to speak, "Who is coming?"

Jiang Qiu supported her and shook his head, "I don't know, I haven't seen it before."

Mother Gong frowned, "Who are you! What do you have to do here!"

Jiang Ning's face was sullen, and she didn't even look at Mother Gong. She walked straight to Mrs. Gong and squatted down slowly, "She is indeed quite pretty, no wonder! Let me tell you this, as long as the Jiang family doesn't allow you to leave, You can only be the wife of the Jiang family, a member of the Jiang family when you are born, and a ghost of the Jiang family when you die. Your mother is not qualified to take over your two families.

As long as the Jiang family goes to the government to sue your mother, you, your mother, and the family who married you will all be sued, do you understand? "
