Chapter 133 Evidence
But the remaining people heard something different. He tugged on Lao Pi's sleeve: "Fifty taels of silver is not bad..."
These words were interrupted by Zhou Yan, who raised the corner of his mouth with a smile that did not reach his eyes: "Did you sign the deed of betrayal in the Zhao Mansion? Apart from the Zhao Mansion, you can't do any work in this life?"
"No." Old Pi said nonchalantly.
"How many days does it take for you to stay at the escort agency, and how much is the reward?" Zhou Yan asked again.
"It should be about ten days and ten taels of silver."
"Ten taels of silver. There are more than ten of you, so you can't get one tael of silver. It's also ten days. I'll give you five taels each. How can I treat you badly?" Zhou Yan was imposing and tall, standing tall in front of Lao Pi.
In front of me, Lao Pi felt inexplicably terrified.
However, if he goes back like this, how will he explain to Huang Meimei?
Lao Pi gritted his teeth and looked at Zhou Yan's fair complexion. He secretly made a bet in his mind that he was some kind of rich young man with no ability to restrain a chicken. He broke the pot and said: "It was clearly agreed that we should work in the Zhao Mansion, but now we are
Resign, aren't you kidding us brothers?"
Seeing that several people were about to make a mistake, Zhou Yan didn't waste any time. He concentrated his inner strength and took a defensive stance.
However, before the fight started, a voice suddenly broke in.
"How can it be appropriate to make such a scene?" Jia Fa said angrily.
Several people subconsciously dispersed, and Jia Fa walked in. Seeing Zhou Yan here, he seemed shocked for a moment, and then he saluted: "Why is His Royal Highness here? There is something wrong with the shop in the capital, and I came to get it."
Some documents."
Then, he turned to look at the escorts and asked, "What are you doing standing in front of Madam's yard? You are not afraid of disturbing Madam's purity."
When Lao Pi heard this, he was shocked. He realized that the person was His Royal Highness, and he regretted his previous offense.
Just as he was about to slip away, he heard Jia Fa calling him: "Are you the escorts that my young master is looking for in the escort agency to protect his wife?"
Lao Pi thought things had turned around. He looked at Jia Fa and said, "Yes, the young master specifically asked me to take more care of my wife before he left."
"I remember that our young master promised to give you ten taels of silver every month. He told you to take care of your wife, but he didn't ask you to live in the Zhao Mansion. What do you mean?" Jia Fa asked him.
Lao Pi's expression froze for a moment, he never expected that Jia Fa was here to ask for punishment.
With Zhou Yan watching from the side, he didn't dare to make a mistake, so he had to answer honestly: "Zhao's residence is far away from the escort agency. In order to better protect my wife, I brought my brothers here..."
"No, Lao Pi, what happened to those ten taels of silver? Why didn't we even see a shadow?" A person behind him gradually came to his senses.
Several other people also asked: "Yes, why didn't we hear the sound?"
A bit of panic flashed in Lao Pi's eyes, and he laughed and said: "When did our escort agency give money first? Before, we gave half the money. That was because the road was dangerous. Now that Zhao Mansion is more relaxed, naturally it is settled on a monthly basis."
"Nonsense! Where did you put our wife's reputation? You lied to your brother and kept it from our wife. When the young master and I are away, do you really think that no one can do anything to you?" Jia Fa sent Zhao Jie to the escort agency.
The signed documents were unfolded and placed in front of several people.
It is written in black and white on the paper that Lin Xing will be in Yuzhou City for a few days, and the escort will take care of him for a few days. Lin Xing will not be entangled when he leaves Yuzhou City in the future.
Several people read the document back and forth several times. Lao Pi knew he was in the wrong, cleared his throat, and said sarcastically: "Well, I misunderstood it at the time. This is my problem. Now that the bill has been settled, we
Now move out of Zhao Mansion..."
"Wait a minute." Jia Fa shook his head and waved, and several servants pressed Huang Meimei up.
As soon as Huang Meimei saw Lao Pi, she immediately struggled to get close to Lao Pi, but she was unable to withstand the strength of those strong men. She had to choke and look at Lao Pi and said aggrievedly: "My husband, my husband, save me!"
Lao Pi's pupils dilated, and he was shocked when he saw Huang Meimei's disheveled appearance. He glared at Jia Fa and said, "Why does the dispute between us involve my wife? Jia, don't think you look like a dog."
Yes, do you really think that I am afraid of you, that I am afraid of your Zhao family?"
Huang Meimei became more confident. The handkerchief was no longer in her hand. She was so confident that her cries almost echoed through the entire Zhao Mansion.
Lin Xing picked her ears and walked out of the yard, crossing her arms and looking at Huang Meimei.
Her eyes fell on Lao Pi, and then back to Huang Meimei's ferocious face, full of disappointment.
"Old Pi, ask yourself, how do I treat you?"
Lao Pi spat: "It's not the reason why I kidnapped my wife. If you want anything, come at me. How can you treat a woman like this?"
"If your wife hadn't had a bad idea and stole our wife's handkerchief with the intention of ruining our wife's reputation, do you think we would be like this?" Jia Fa said louder than Lao Pi.
"How could she do such a thing? Stop slandering me here. Meimei and I have been married for many years. How can we allow you to provoke us?" Lao Pi retorted, completely ignoring the panic on Huang Meimei's face.
After a pause, Huang Meimei regained her composure and then agreed: "That's right, you said that I stole Lin Xing's handkerchief. You can at least come up with some evidence. If you don't have a plan to pack your things, you have to have someone as your back."
?”
"Of course I have evidence." Jia Fa clapped his palms, and a maid stood up, pointed at Huang Meimei and said, "I saw it. I worked a little late that day and didn't eat much. I was called again in the evening.
I went to do laundry, and Huang Meimei and I were on duty at that time. I was so hungry that I went to find something to eat... but when I came back, I saw Huang Meimei stuffing Madam's handkerchief into her pocket."
"If you saw it, why didn't you tell me before? Madam has been looking for the handkerchief these days, why didn't you say anything?" Lao Pi couldn't believe it. He looked at the maid and asked.
"It's against the family law for me to steal food in the kitchen, but this thing will damage my wife's reputation. If Huang Meimei is not a thoughtful person and just wants to take the embroidered handkerchief back for personal use, I will naturally hide this secret in the kitchen.
But how do you know what she did?" The maid's mother is a big maid in the house, and she also talks a little arrogantly.
Lao Pi was speechless, but he still looked unbelieving.
Huang Meimei had a bad intuition and quickly winked at Lao Pi: "Forget it, their Zhao family has a big business and we can't afford to offend them, Lao Pi, let's just forget about it."
"How can I do that? To slander you is to slap my Lao Pi in the face. Although our Pi family is not a prominent family, we must not let others bully us." Lao Pi was obviously over the top. His face was red and his neck was thick. Even Huang Meimei was shocked.
