Chapter 804: Asking only that my heart is clear!

u’ll be able to explain yourselves."Unfortunately, Lao Er still shook his head. "Thank you for your patronage, Madam Hua, but all the wooden houses and courtyards in our valley are booked out for the...Actually, for adults, seeing a child happily eat something sweet is truly more fulfilling than eating it themselves.

Jia Yin ate two corn cakes and then took a stick of boiled corn to munch on slowly.

The entrance was sweet and sticky, making her eyes squint with delight.

In a past life, fruit corn was particularly popular for a while, but she didn't like it. She preferred the sticky corn from her hometown instead.

After returning to the village, she traded with villagers for a variety of seeds.

Over the past few years, after several harvests in space, the seed quality has been improved. It's really sweeter and more glutinous to eat.

The previous plot was for medicinal herbs, she decided to plant sticky corn instead.

Last night I was busy picking and preserving, making preparations for the fresh supermarket she's been planning.

Soon, everyone had eaten their fill and tidied up the table. They sat together chatting idly.

Grandma He drove the maids away to busy themselves, then stayed by the door with Shui Ling and Shui Yun, so that the young masters could speak freely.

Mr. Wen was uneasy about leaving home and said to Old Mrs. Li, "Auntie, the Wen family is probably going to come and beg for mercy. If I'm not here, please help Jiner a little bit and don't let her suffer."

Mrs. Wen's face flushed red upon hearing this, and she retorted playfully, "I'm not a child anymore, you don't have to worry about me!"

But Old Madam Li was smiling with delight, "Don't worry, that title of Imperial Grand Dowager, I'm afraid it's going to be left to mold and grow mushrooms.

If anyone bullies Jinerou, I will definitely step out and show myself, supporting Jinerou.

"Some things, as a junior, Jin Rou shouldn't say. I won't keep them hidden!"

Tao Hongying also said: "I will also be at home these two days, Mr. Wen needn't worry, Suijintan is right in front of our doorstep, how could we let anyone come and run wild!"

Mr. Wen bowed and thanked him, then instructed Jiarren, "If you meet anyone who talks about me when you're out, just speak your mind and don't worry about my reputation."

A true gentleman, no matter what he does, will inevitably be criticized. We only need to ask ourselves if we have acted with integrity.

"Yes, Teacher." Jiaren stood up and bowed respectfully.

Jia Yin blinked her big eyes, holding onto the pouch at her waist, and asked, "Second Uncle, if the Wu family is going to be locked up for introspection, does that mean they can't do bad things anymore"

"May I go into the city for a walk"

Her words were like poking a hornet's nest. Everyone's face changed, and they all vehemently refused her.

"No!"

Jia Yin wore a bitter expression and said dejectedly, "There's no reason to have anticipated being robbed yesterday!"

"Could it be that as long as the Wu family isn't wiped out, I can't leave my house"

Besides, no one can guarantee that there won't be Feng families, Zhao families, and Liu families in the future. I can't hide my whole life!

Old Lady Li quickly spat twice beside her and muttered, "The bad ones are ineffective, the good ones work! The bad ones are ineffective, the good ones work!"

Having said that, she reached out and "hard" tapped her granddaughter's forehead, angrily scolding: "How old are you, and still don't know how to control your mouth What do you mean by cursing yourself!"

When Jiayin saw the old woman getting angry, she quickly clung to her and acted coquettishly, holding onto her grandmother's arm.

"Grandma, I was wrong. I really know I was wrong!

"I am loved by all, flowers bloom when I appear. Of course, my future will be smooth sailing, everything will go well, and things will happen naturally…"

Everyone was amused by her lazy appearance.

Li Laotai was also amused and speechless, helplessly saying: “Are you taking advantage of this old woman who hasn't read much, aren't you”

"Just apologize, why keep rambling on and on!"

Having said that, she felt sorry for her granddaughter being cooped up at home and whispered, "Wait a little longer. When your uncle and the others have finished dealing with the Wu family, we'll go out again."

"Let's say, for the sake of argument, that our family really can't handle the Wu family. Your grandmother would then send you to Quanzhou."

Your third brother is a general over there, your uncle also bought a courtyard. The mountains are high and the emperor is far away, even if the Wu family's hand reaches out, it can't reach here!

Jia Yin nodded and asked, "Grandma, how can these people be so heartless"

"The corn and potatoes grown at home are all from our family. We just had a bumper harvest, and they actually took advantage of us. Just thinking about it makes me angry."

Grandma Li knew her granddaughter well and immediately asked, “Are you up to something again”

Jia Yin chuckled, "It's nothing, just wanted to teach them a little lesson."

Li Laotai was unable to make a decision, she looked towards Li Laoer and Mr. Wen.

Li Lao Er thought for a moment and then said, “Do whatever you want, it's good to vent your anger.”

Mr. Wen also said, "That day at the court, the Wu family was caught off guard and now they dare not make any rash moves easily."

"You can do whatever you want, the Wu family can only swallow this dumb loss."

Jia Yin was so excited that she quickly said, "Thank you, Uncle Two and Master! Don't worry, I definitely won't ruin your arrangements, and I won't harm any innocents!"

After exchanging a few more idle words, the crowd dispersed to rest.

As expected of Mr. Wen, as soon as he arrived at the yamen the next day, Mrs. Wen (eldest) and Mrs. Wen (second) came to pay a visit.

Upon receiving the news, Lao Li, Tao Hongying, and Jiayin all rushed over.

Madam Wen was older than Madam Li, and she held a title of nobility bestowed by the imperial court. Although it was only a third-rank title,

Compared to Li Lao Tai's first-rank imperial decree, that was significantly lower.

Tao Hongying's status even overshadowed that of Mrs. Wen, the leading lady. Over the past two years, Li Lao Si has been fighting alongside the Northern Expeditionary Army and has been promoted to a third-rank general, quite impressive.

Instead, Wen Junyan spent many years languishing. He remained a fourth-rank official at the Honglu Temple, with nothing to do but play with cats and dogs every day. He had no real power whatsoever.

Not to mention the noblewoman, Lady Jia Yin, who holds a fiefdom and a title!

So, as soon as the three members of the Li family entered the room, Old Mrs. Wen and Mrs. Wen could only rise to their feet and pay their respects.

Mrs. Wen respectfully helped Old Madam Li to sit in the main seat and personally served her tea.

Jia Yin gently stroked Yue Ya'er in her arms and said a few words, only then did she seem to have just seen the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Wen family. She asked: “Oh my, Master Aunt, you have guests here. They look so familiar.”

Mrs. Wen chuckled inwardly and said, "This is Old Madam Wen and Big Madam."

"Oh, you mean the Wen family from that year when my master was thrown into prison Not only did they not rescue my master, but they immediately expelled him from the sect."

Jia Yin's face was full of surprise, and she continued unabashedly, "It's really strange, didn't the Wen family say they no longer wanted their master How did they come back again What a thick-skinned person!"

Elder Mrs. Wen, such a "simple" person, was now blushing furiously.

Lady Wen's hand tightened around her handkerchief.

If she wasn't thinking of her husband waiting at home for rescue, she would have left without hesitation.

"Alright, Jia Yin!" Tao Hongying saw that the fire was almost ready and said in a feigned way: "Say less, maybe they are here to see the moon."

Jia Yin was even more insistent, "Impossible! Yue Ya'er is already two years old, how could this be"

"Could the Wen family be living on the moon It takes so long for news to reach us"

Elder Madam Wen wished she could find a crack in the ground to hide in, while Madam Wen (the eldest) was on the verge of tears.

Then Mrs. Wen spoke, “My Lady, considering your master’s affection, don't hold a grudge too much.”

"Humph!" Jia Yin snorted coldly.

She tapped her deer-skin leather boots, the tiny golden balls at the toe jingling as she put on an air of aloofness. With a reluctant sigh, she finally said, “Get up!”

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law quickly straightened up. For a moment, their backs ached.

The initial three parts arrogance and seven parts reasonableness when I first arrived at the door have all been dispelled by this "ordeal"!e back for several days. I'll go stay at the restaurant for a few days tomorrow to give Jiahuan a break."But at home, we need to prepare for the Lunar New Year. It'll be hard work for you!"Alright th...
