Chapter 1847: Someone Might Know

Editor: Henyee Translations

Yang Zhifu raised his head in surprise. He didn’t stop what he was doing and asked curiously, "What is it?"

"It’s the county magistrate. Do you know that his family has a concubine surnamed Chang?"

Yang Zhifu was stunned. "Concubine Chang??"

He frowned and thought about it carefully, but still shook his head.

Although County Governor Ren was his in-law, it was not good for him to ask too much about the matters in the backyard. He only had Old Madam Yang as his wife, but he could not care less about his in-law having three wives and four concubines.

He only needed to know that his daughter-in-law’s mother was the main wife and that her surname was Wang.

"Why are you suddenly asking this?"

Gu Yundong said vaguely, "I heard that the Ren family’s case back then was a little strange, so I asked for clarification. Then, does Cousin Yang He know?"

Hearing that there was something wrong with the Ren family’s case, Yang Zhifu became excited. He didn’t care about plucking the feathers of the chicken anymore and said anxiously, "When the Ren family was in trouble, your cousin was only five years old. Even if he knew, he might not remember it. But if you want to know more about the Ren family’s backyard, someone might have some clues."

"Who?"

"Yang He’s nanny."

When Madam Ren married Yang Wenli, she was still the county magistrate’s daughter and had several maidservants.

Later on, when something happened to the Ren family, Yang Wenli deliberately reduced the number of servants around Madam Ren. When she was sick, he set up a few traps and made a few servants around her make mistakes. He sold them all.

It was useless for Madam Ren to plead for mercy. In the end, only Madam Ren’s nanny and personal maidservant were left by her side.

When Madam Ren’s illness became more and more serious, she knew that she did not have much time left, so she wanted to plan a backup plan for the people around her.

She betrothed her personal maidservant to someone else and secretly bought a small courtyard for more. She gave her some silver to retire in.

After Madam Ren passed away, her personal maidservant left Anyi County with her husband. However, the nanny could not bear to part with Yang He and begged Old Madam Yang to take care of him.

Unfortunately, at that time, Yang Wenli was already in charge of the family. Yang Wenli was unwilling, so the nanny had to leave.

However, she did come back to see Yang He from time to time. Later on, Yang Wenli married a new wife and told the concierge not to let the nanny in. When she came, she was chased out.

Therefore, in recent years, Nanny had come to the Yang family less often.

Gu Yundong was curious. "Where’s Nanny’s child?"

"No." Yang Zhifu sighed. "Back then, because the child was gone, her husband’s family blamed her and chased her out. She had no way out and happened to meet Madam Wang, so she was brought into the residence to serve He’er’s mother."

Gu Yundong understood, so the Ren family was a benefactor to the nanny.

"So where does she live now? We’ll look for her later."

Yang Zhifu told her the address and then asked again with uncertainty, "Is there a chance for the Ren Family to change?"

"Grandpa, don’t have too much hope. It’s just a suspicion. We have to investigate before we know what happened."

Yang Zhifu nodded. "I understand, I understand." He hoped that the Ren family was indeed wronged. As a big family in Anyi County, Yang Zhifu naturally knew that County Magistrate Ren was not a pure government official. Occasionally, he would receive some benefits to make things convenient for others.

But these crimes couldn’t possibly be worth death sentence, right? Yang Zhifu couldn’t figure this out.

He shook his head. Forget it. It had been so many years. How could it be so easy to find out the truth back then?
