Chapter 914 Wu Daniu is arrested

"Yes, I didn't suffer much when I was at the Sun residence, and I had a groom protecting me, so no one did anything to me."

Hongtao felt sorry for Granny Dong, who had worked so hard all her life. "Mother, is that coachman very capable?"

Old Lady Dong thought about how she had met many men in her life, and in bed, the coachman was truly the most skilled one. "He really was very skilled."

Is he good to his mother?

“Okay, back in the Sun family, many of the old women and maids wanted to be with the coachman, but he didn’t like them. You can imagine how good the coachman was to me. He even helped me make pastries. He had a lot of face in front of Sun Xiangxiang.”

"What a pity. He was so good to Mother and very capable. If he hadn't been caught and imprisoned, Mother might have considered living with him." Hongtao said with regret.

Most of the people who were kind to my mother before were after her body; how many of them truly had feelings for her?

Now that my mother is getting on in years, someone who is good to her must genuinely like her. They are capable and good to her, so this is a good place for them.

Old Lady Dong's gaze was inscrutable in the darkness. "The coachman wasn't arrested."

"Not caught? Will Mother be able to find him? Forget it, it sounds like I'm urging Mother to go out and live with him. I just want Mother to have someone who cares about her. She lived the first half of her life for us, and she should live the second half for herself."

"Okay, go to sleep. We'll talk about the stable boy later."

"Hmm." The two said they were going to sleep, but neither of them could fall asleep.

She was lost in thought, wondering what kind of life she would lead if she lived with adults. Grandpa An'an was very close to her, and she would be the one to call the shots in the entire Ling family.

One of them was thinking about the strange behavior of the coachman. Since the coachman hadn't been arrested, was there still a chance for him to turn his life around? Should she do what her daughter said and follow the coachman? It might be a good choice.

Du Mingxian, who was in prison, was also thinking about this.

The letter was delivered this afternoon, and there should be results tomorrow. As long as Granny Dong comes to the jail, she can get out, and that gives us hope.

What puzzled her most was that she drank the spiritual water, but... her symptoms did not lessen. Instead, she continued to have a fever, which only subsided a little after she arrived at the other side, but she still had a fever.

Granny Wang herself was also injured, and she had been taking care of her all day. She was so tired that she fell asleep right now.

Just as Du Mingxian was drifting off to sleep, a commotion broke out outside.

"Let me go, let me go! I don't know anything, I don't know anything at all!"

Du Mingxian recognized the voice very well. She was quite shocked. Wu Daniu hadn't come in, but this person had?

Soon she saw several officials escorting people, with the one at the front carrying a torch as he walked in. The torchlight was bright enough for her to see Wu Erniu's face clearly.

Wu Dani struggled fiercely, and the two guards holding him down turned pale.

As the group walked over, they soon heard Wu Erniu's screams.

"Ah, no, don't hit me! I really don't know anything, why are you arresting me?"

The escorting officers breathed a sigh of relief before turning around and walking out, chatting as they went.

“This man is really dishonest. The adults have found out that Wu Erniu is helping his brother, but he won’t admit it at all.”

"Anyway, I won't live much longer, but I heard that a woman ran away."

"Wu Daniu's legal wife, she probably doesn't know anything. It's pitiful for a legal wife to live to that extent. The boss's idea is to catch her if we can, and let her go if we can't."

"The boss is still so soft-hearted."

"Let's not talk about that. I'm hungry. Let's go out and get something to eat."

The group left, chatting and laughing. Du Mingxian's mind was spinning; Du Mingwei had actually run away...

She was about to go to sleep, but because Wu Erniu was arrested, it took her a long time to finally fall asleep.

It was a new day, and both Wang Pozi and Du Mingxian were filled with hope.

"Do you think she'll come? I have a feeling she won't. We don't get along at all. I wrote to her, why would she want to come see me?" Granny Wang had no idea what to do.

Du Mingxian comforted her, "Don't worry, she will definitely come, she will definitely come."

Granny Wang, “…” This is a sign of a lack of self-confidence; she uses words to numb herself.

The two women kept talking because they had given each other silver, and the officials had been giving them some steamed buns these past two days, sometimes plain white flour, sometimes a mixture of both.

Du Mingxian waited from daylight until it was almost dark outside, but the person still hadn't arrived, and the anticipation in her heart slowly faded.

Seeing that her expression was off, Granny Wang was afraid that she might do something rash. "Don't worry, she didn't come today. She probably can't leave the manor. She'll definitely come when she has the chance. Although she's annoying, she's kind at heart."

Du Mingxian could only console herself with this thought, and at this moment she was also wondering if there was a high chance of success if she sent a letter to Ling Silang.

The main problem is... I can't move or write right now, so I'm relying entirely on Granny Wang. As for Granny Wang's handwriting... I don't know if anyone will believe it.

Another day has passed.

Granny Wang couldn't even find the words to comfort them, but the two of them immediately started eating worse.

Du Mingxian didn't want to sit idly by and wait for her fate, so she took out a fifty-tael silver note from her spatial storage.

"I have silver notes here."

When Granny Wang heard Du Mingxian say she had silver notes, she was shocked. Du Mingxian had been injured before, and Granny Wang had applied medicine to her and even undressed her. After that, Du Mingxian couldn't move and had nothing on her. How could she have silver notes?

"Are you delirious from the fever?"

Du Mingxian raised her hand slightly, "You'll know once you get your hands on it."

Granny Wang took it and glanced at it. "It really is a silver note, fifty taels. What do you want to do with these silver notes?"

"Save yourself."

"So tell me, what should we do next?"

"Find a jailer, give him the silver notes, and then ask for some paper and pen. We'll write a letter, this time not to Granny Dong, but to my relatives."

"it is good."

This time, Granny Wang didn't call out. She waited for the jailer to bring her food and secretly slipped the silver to him. When the jailer saw that it was a silver note, his eyes lit up. When he saw that it was fifty taels, he was even happier.

The other party agreed to whatever Granny Wang said.

Soon another person brought over paper and pens, and also brought them some food, including rice, stir-fried vegetables, and stir-fried meat slices.

When Granny Wang saw the change of servants, she knew that silver notes were still needed, and she was in a dilemma.

Du Mingxian knew this rule, and she also had some silver notes in her space, just in case. "Wang Pozi, come and get them."

Another silver note was handed out, and Granny Wang felt like she was in a dream. "How come you have so many silver notes on you? The clothes I gave you before shouldn't be like this."

“When I was a child, I followed a wandering magician and learned some tricks, so I can conjure up some things easily.”

"This is what you call simply changing something? And the thing you simply change is a banknote?"

"I can't conjure things out of thin air, but I can still create things that I already have, things that I've practiced before."

That was her explanation; whether Granny Wang believed it or not, there was nothing she could do.
