The moon falling to the ground

Chapter 109 The inhumane person is here again

Yan Xinning felt uneasy when Yan Xiuyuan looked at her. She was very nervous. She forced a smile and called him father.

Yan Xiuyuan hummed and said calmly: "What do you want?"

Yan Xinning felt very uncomfortable.

Ever since Jian Zhaodi said that, her father's attitude towards her has obviously become colder. He often looks at her with a scrutinizing gaze. She hates such a gaze, or even hates it. However, she still pretends that nothing has happened.

Yan Xinning looked worried: "Father, something happened to my foster mother's brother Jian, and he was arrested and thrown into the county jail. Brother Jian is just a weak scholar, it is impossible for him to hurt others violently. I suspect he was framed. So, I would like to ask you to say hello to the county jail."

There was another unbearable silence. Just when Yan Xinning was about to lose her calm, Yan Xiuyuan said, "Xinning, the Jian family has raised you for nine years and has been very kind to you. But we have already given them enough in return. I allowed you to let the Jian family move to the city. I turned a blind eye to your private support of the Jian family. It is good to repay a favor, but you cannot confuse right and wrong. If you get involved with them without any bottom line, you will be dragged into the quagmire by them sooner or later."

Yan Xinning's face suddenly changed and she was secretly shocked.

Does my father hate the Jane family so much?

why?

Was it because of what Jian Zhaodi said? Or was his father already suspicious?

Yan Xinning's eyes were filled with tears, and she choked up and said, "My daughter sometimes feels that the Jian family is not doing things right. But when I think of the hard days in the countryside, the Jian family's parents would rather starve themselves and do their best to raise their daughter, and my daughter can't bear to refuse them. If they hadn't been kind enough to pick up my daughter, I wouldn't be where I am today."

Yan Xiuyuan smiled with an ambiguous tone: "The kind-hearted Jian family is so good to a daughter they adopted, so why are they so mean to their own daughter? I heard Jian Yue say that day that her mother never let her drink hot water. You should know about this, right?"

Yan Xinning panicked and her face stiffened: "When my daughter was at the Jian family, she was busy learning this and that every day, and she really didn't pay attention to these little things. Besides, most of the country people are poor and dislike the waste of firewood to boil water. Adults and children are used to drinking raw water. Drinking raw water is a common thing for farmers."

"Have you ever drunk it when you were at Jian's house?" Yan Xiuyuan suddenly asked.

Yan Xinning nodded: "My daughter also often drank it when she was young."

"It means drinking regularly, not every day, right?"

Yan Xinning nodded subconsciously. She was about to say yes, but then she realized something was wrong and her face turned red. For a moment, it was not right to say it, and it was not right not to say it.

Yan Xiuyuan suddenly sighed: "Go back! Don't interfere in the affairs of the Jian family. County Magistrate He is an honest official, and he has no wrongful convictions."

Yan Xinning returned to her yard with a heavy heart.

My father's attitude was strange, as if he knew something.

This made Yan Xinning very uneasy, and she no longer had the energy to find someone to rescue Jian Huaian. She walked to the gate of the yard, turned around and walked towards Xie Chujiao's yard.

The fine of one thousand taels of silver gave Jian Dacheng and his wife more reason to ask Jian Yue for money.

Just after lunch, there was a knock on the door of Yue’s house.

Amber opened the side door a crack and saw that it was Jian Dacheng and his wife. A hint of disgust flashed in her eyes.

The inhumane person is here again.

Whenever this pair of unscrupulous parents come to visit, nothing good will happen.

"Amber, we want to see Zhaodi, please let us in quickly." The last time she came to Yue's house, Qian knew the names of all the servants she met in Yue's house, and she remembered Amber, who was guarding the gate, even more clearly.

Amber was even more displeased with her self-righteous tone, and said coldly: "Sorry! We are Yue's residence, and there is no one named Zhaodi here. You two should look somewhere else!"

Mrs. You scolded in dissatisfaction: "Open your dog eyes and see clearly, these are the parents of the disciple of the divine doctor. How can you, a gatekeeper, be so rude?"

Amber laughed: "Whose parents don't know their own children's names? Are you here to make fun of me, old woman?"

Qian's eyes widened, and she wanted to argue with Anbo. Jian Dacheng pulled her aside and said to Anbo with a smile: "Don't blame me, Anbo. We are used to calling her Zhaodi, and we can't change it for a while. Please ask Jian Yue to come out, we have something to ask her."

Amber snorted coldly: "Miss Jian went out with Doctor Mao to collect herbs and is not in the mansion."

Jian Dacheng: "When will you be back?"

Amber rolled her eyes: "Not sure."

Qian was anxious when she heard this. She was waiting for money and was not sure what to do.

Amber was about to close the door when a carriage came and stopped behind Jian Dacheng and his wife. Jian Dacheng hurriedly pulled Qian.

Looking at the decoration of the carriage, one could tell that the person sitting in it was either wealthy or noble. Jian Dacheng was afraid of bumping into someone and getting in trouble, so he quickly pulled Qian to the side.

After the driver got off the carriage, the servant who followed him lifted the curtain and two people got off the carriage, a middle-aged man and a young man. Both were dressed in top-quality silk. The middle-aged man wore a clear jade ring on his thumb, and the young man held a fan painted by a famous artist.

The servant came over with a visiting card and said to Amber at the door: "The second master and the eldest master of the Wen family want to see Doctor Mao. Please inform him, old man." As he said that, he wanted to stuff a purse into Amber's hand.

Amber left the door even smaller, and did not take the purse from the servant. He smiled and said, "I'm afraid your two distinguished guests will have made a wasted trip. The great doctor is out collecting herbs and is not in the mansion."

The servant looked back at his master and asked, "When will the miracle doctor come back?"

Amber shook his head: "How can a gatekeeper like me know the whereabouts of the great doctor?"

Qian suddenly had an idea and said to An Bo: "I heard that Meng Tongzhi compensated my daughter with a farm. I wonder where the farm is? How can a little girl like her know how to manage a farm? We, as her parents, have to help her."

An Bo looked at Qian in astonishment and said inexplicably: "Did you have any misunderstanding? When did Meng Tongzhi compensate Miss Jian for the farm? The farm and silver were the treatment fees that Meng Tongzhi gave to the genius doctor. What does it have to do with Miss Jian?"

Jian Dacheng and Qian were both stunned.

"No! The money and the manor are compensation for my daughter. Didn't the young master of the Tongzhi family admit with his own mouth that he wanted to murder my daughter?" Qian screamed.

Amber laughed and said sarcastically, "Since you knew that someone wanted to harm your daughter, why didn't anyone in your family come to ask about it? You didn't even say a word to the bad guy who hurt your daughter. Besides, he admitted that he wanted to harm your daughter, but he didn't ask for compensation. Otherwise, you can go to the prefect to ask for some compensation."

Although Jian Dacheng and his wife were thick-skinned, they were still blushing after being criticized by Amber...
