Chapter 26 Caiwei's Conditions (1)
Caiwei ignored their wonderful expressions, bent down and picked up Wu'er who was still crying, stroking his back and comforting him: "Wu'er, don't cry. Tomorrow morning, I will go to the town to confess. When the county magistrate rewards me with ten taels of silver, I will buy you some candy."
"Really? I didn't lie to you?" Wu'er looked at Caiwei pitifully with his big wet eyes.
"Of course it's true! How could I lie to you?" Caiwei wiped the tears from Wu'er's face and gave Mrs. Du a slightly reproachful look.
"Sister was going to turn herself in today, but mother was soft-hearted and kept stopping her because of some useless relationship, forcing her to make an extra trip."
At this time, Du had understood Caiwei's meaning, and seeing the expressions of the first wife's family avoiding cats and mice, she immediately cheered up, wiped the tears from her face, and continued to say along with her daughter's words: "Wei'er, it was all mother's confusion for a while. I won't do this again. Tomorrow morning, I will accompany you to turn yourself in!"
Caiwei said: "Is mother thinking it through? You are not allowed to regret it when you appear in front of the county magistrate tomorrow."
Du glanced at the people in the first wife's house and said loudly: "Don't worry, mother will never regret it!"
Hearing this, Mu Zhongli suddenly felt like he fell into an ice cave, just like: splitting the eight petals of the top yang bone, a bucket of ice and snow poured down.
"Hey, don't, don't! Wei'er, nephew, you must not go!"
"Why can't I go?" Caiwei asked with a sneer.
Mu Bai didn't bother to cry. She got up from the ground, wiped away the tears that didn't exist, grabbed Caiwei's hand and cried, "Wei girl, you can't go. Think about it, if you go, will your uncle still be alive?"
Caiwei shook off Mu Bai's pull and said in a cry, "Uncle has never cared about the life and death of our family. Why should I care about him?"
"Oh, niece, you have to have a conscience. I went to the town to help your family sell pigs, otherwise how could I scare the horse and hit someone? Niece, you can't kill the donkey after it has done its work!"
Caiwei almost laughed when she heard that Mu Zhongli compared herself to a donkey in front of the younger generation in order to defend herself. She was once again impressed by the shamelessness of this family.
"Wei girl, your uncle is right. No matter what, this disaster was caused by Gang's family. You can't harm your uncle. We must never repay kindness with enmity!" Mu Liankui said earnestly, with a heartbroken expression, as if Caiwei had really done something heinous.
Being caught by the thief, Caiwei almost vomited three liters of blood. She sneered and retorted: "Isn't the purpose of uncle helping my family sell pigs just to swallow the money we get from selling pigs? Doesn't grandpa think the same as uncle? Otherwise, why did he come to my house in the dark to cause trouble? It's obvious to all bald lice, why bother pretending to be confused when you know the truth?"
Mu Liankui was exposed by his granddaughter in public, and his old face turned red with embarrassment. He jumped up and stretched his neck to curse, but before he could say the dirty words, he caught a glimpse of Caiwei's eyes that said "Do you want to die?", and thought that the handles of himself and his son and grandson were in the hands of this dead girl, so he had to suppress his temper and sit down with humiliation.
"Tell me, what do you want?" He twisted his neck and asked in a muffled voice. At this time, he felt very cowardly. He was so old, but he was controlled by this inconspicuous granddaughter to such a situation.
"Yes, yes, niece, what do you want? Tell me quickly, how can you let your uncle go?" Li also came over.
