The Farmer’s Eldest Daughter Has a Spatial Pocket

Chapter 1355: Obtaining Bai Muzi

Yan Yihai immediately looked at her in shock. “W-What did you say?”

Everyone was speechless. Did he think that everyone else was stupid?

However, Mrs. Yan gritted her teeth and confessed to the crime. Master Yan looked heartbroken and even pleaded for Mrs. Yan. Moreover, there was no direct evidence to prove that Master Yan was behind this, so the magistrate had no choice but to convict Mrs. Yan.

However, since Master Yan had previously planned to use Bai Muzi to save his daughter’s life, and now that Yan Ya’s life was indeed at stake, it was a good opportunity to show Master Yan’s fatherly heart.

The magistrate immediately ordered Master Yan to send Bai Muzi to Imperial Physician Song so that he could use it.

Yan Yihai’s heart ached terribly, but since things had come to this, he could only hand Bai Muzi over with both hands.

With Imperial Physician Song around, he could not use other medicines this time.

As for Lady Yan, although she had confessed, the crime was not serious. After all, between Cui Lan and Yan Ya who had been harmed, Cui Lan had been harmed by rumors, but this situation was not easy to punish.

As for Yan Ya, she was Mrs. Yan’s daughter after all. If her mother was severely punished because of her, Yan Ya would still be accused of being unfilial.

Therefore, in the end, the magistrate sentenced Mrs. Yan to 50 strokes of the paddle and fined her some silver. He then sent her back to reflect on her actions.

Mrs. Yan was carried back. Half of her life was gone after 50 strokes.

However, just as they were about to leave the government office, Nie Cong suddenly stopped in his tracks. He looked at Mrs. Yan coldly and said, “Mrs. Yan is so heartless to my wife, but you still tricked her into giving you the key to the shop on Jinlan Street and let Mother Chen rent it out in the name of the Yan family. You’re really shameless.”

Yan Yihai was stunned. He really did not know about this.

Nie Cong lifted his chin slightly. “Since Mrs. Yan thinks that the key looks good, I’ll give it to you. I’ll get someone to change the lock of the shop.”

Yan Yihai’s face turned green as he shouted angrily at Mrs. Yan, “Aren’t you going to hand over the key?”

Lady Yan trembled and said shakily, “The key is in the residence.”

Yan Yihai was exasperated. “Is my Yan Residence short of food or drink for you? Do you have to be greedy for that little rent? There are so many shops in our Yan family. Aren’t they enough for you to deal with? You’ve really embarrassed me.”

Lady Yan had a bad temper to begin with. This time, she took the blame for Yan Yihai because she thought that the Yan Residence could not lack a man in charge. It was for her and her daughter’s future.

However, not only was Yan Yihai not grateful, he even scolded her in front of everyone for that little bit of face.

Lady Yan was immediately furious. She didn’t even care about the pain of her injuries. She bared her teeth and scolded him, “What’s the use of that little bit of money you gave me? Aren’t you the one who controls the money at home? I’m the mistress of the household and I manage the huge Yan Residence. I only have so little money. What can I do? There are shops at home, but do you want me to manage them? You still have the cheek to criticize me. You bastard, I’ve already taken the blame…”

Before she could finish speaking, Yan Yihai stopped her. “Alright, alright. There’s no need to shout about this everywhere. We’ll talk about it when we get back. You’re still injured.” Then, he turned to Nie Cong and said, “I’ll get someone to send the key to you when we get back. You, you should hurry back too. Yan Ya is still waiting for you at home.”

Although Lady Yan was unwilling, she still snorted and stopped talking.

After the Yan family left, Nie Cong only watched from afar.
