Chapter 152 The show begins
"Master, I feel really wronged. How can I live my life in the future with my mother's speculation?"
Mrs. Pei pretended to wipe her eyes with a handkerchief as she spoke, but there was not a single tear at all.
But I was cursing in my heart: What on earth is this old hag doing? Doesn’t she want to see me on weekdays?
Why do we suddenly have to confront each other today?
After watching the video, Yan Nansheng ordered his servants to find Mo Qing and ask him to arrange to find the owner of the pharmacy where Madam Pei bought the poison.
In order to avoid being discovered in person, this vicious stepmother bought the poison from a pharmacy in Huining Prefecture.
At this moment Mo Qing came in to report that the person had been brought here.
A wonderful show is about to begin.
Yan Nansheng finally understood that Lord Pei really didn't understand that the person sleeping beside him was such a vicious and femme fatale.
This was also because the people of the Pei family had never had open arguments, which gave this woman the opportunity to hide her true colors.
In addition, her green tea style has been cultivated to the pinnacle, and Lord Pei was fooled by her.
This made Yan Nansheng feel deeply moved. He thought about how important it was for a family to communicate honestly and speak nicely. If they could do this, perhaps things wouldn't have turned out like this.
Mrs. Pei's face was already red at this time. What's wrong with her husband today? Can't he see her grievances at all?
You are still talking to your mother-in-law. Shouldn't she come over and comfort me?
And there is this handsome young man next to him. If I were younger...
As she thought about it, Mrs. Pei's face turned red.
Yan Nansheng felt that Mrs. Pei's eyes lingered on him too many times, and suddenly the hairs on his body stood up again.
So disgusting, what to do.
What should I do if I really want to dig out this old green tea's eyes?
She is a green tea girl. Let’s tear off her hypocritical mask first.
Wanting to see her commit suicide quickly, Yan Nansheng spoke up.
"I heard that Mrs. Pei's ex-husband was a juren?"
Mrs. Pei's heart trembled. Why did he bring up the past?
She looked towards Lord Pei dimly, only to see her husband looking at the two trembling little bitches.
Out of the corner of his eye he noticed the old man sitting at the top was staring at him, so he had no choice but to reply.
"Yes, it was my father's order and the matchmaker's words. I had no choice."
In this era, it was a rare talent to be able to pass the imperial examination. That person was also handsome, so this old green tea girl took advantage of him. But now she is still acting like a good girl.
In the space, Roubao kept making noises in his mouth, which gave Yan Nansheng a headache.
"Oh? It is said that when the scholar was ill, your wife took care of him for a long time without taking off her clothes, and even borrowed money from everywhere to pay for his treatment. The neighbors all praised you two for your true love in times of trouble."
"To be able to reach this point, the relationship must be very deep. How come what my wife said doesn't seem to be the case."
Mrs. Pei glanced at Lord Pei nervously. Seeing that Lord Pei was looking at her with puzzled eyes, sweat suddenly broke out on the tip of her nose.
That’s not what I told my husband. I just said that family treated me badly and always tortured me. I endured it until both the mother and the child died, and only then did I escape.
I clearly let Zhang Da clean up the mess, so how could this young man who came from nowhere know so much?
"That's impossible. That vicious mother and son married me just to be their servant. They don't treat me as a human being at all. Woo..."
Lord Pei felt a little distressed when he saw this, as his wife would be very sad whenever she talked about the past.
Just when he was about to step forward to comfort her, Yan Nansheng dropped a bombshell.
"Oh? Then someone sued you for poisoning your husband and murdering your mother-in-law, so there is a clue?"
"After all, they abused you."
"Nonsense! Who the hell are you? You're just talking nonsense!"
"Someone! Someone! Take down this kid who is talking nonsense! Take him down!"
Mrs. Pei screamed like a madman, but no one came in after she screamed for a long time.
Yan Nansheng picked up the tea next to him which had become warm enough to be drunk, blew on it gently, and took a sip.
Lord Pei saw that his wife looked panic-stricken and had a fierce look in her eyes, which was completely different from her usual gentle and considerate self.
The distorted face seemed to be possessed by a demon, and every wrinkle told an unspeakable secret.
Lord Pei couldn't help but tremble in his heart. Is this still the gentle and virtuous lady he is familiar with?
Without Mrs. Pei's deliberate instigation, Lord Pei's detective blood was instantly aroused.
"Is what Yan Jieyuan said true? Didn't your ex-husband die of illness? And his mother didn't go to live with relatives, but was killed by you?"
Lord Pei's voice trembled and his eyes were full of disbelief.
His eyes were fixed on the lady, trying to find a flaw or even a hint of remorse in her expression.
"What's going on? This is the first time Yan Jieyuan has met you, and you don't look like you have any grudge against Yan Jieyuan."
The more Lord Pei spoke, the more he felt that the facts were not as his wife said.
His thoughts began to go back uncontrollably. Those details that he had once ignored were now like sharp blades, piercing his heart again and again.
Lord Pei fell into deep thought, and every moment of his time with the lady kept flashing through his mind.
Every time he questioned something suspicious, his wife would snuggle in his arms tenderly, crying and complaining about her grievances with tears in her eyes.
At that time, his heart and eyes were filled with love for his wife, and he chose to believe her explanation without hesitation.
Thinking about it now, those seemingly reasonable excuses were so pale and fragile.
"How could I be so stupid to be so easily fooled by her tears and lies?"
Lord Pei slapped his forehead hard, his heart filled with regret and self-blame.
"As the governor of a state, I should have been very observant, but I lost myself in the tenderness and affection of the lady and turned a blind eye to her evil deeds."
Lord Pei recalled a time when he accidentally discovered his wife having a secret meeting with a strange man on a street corner.
When he questioned his wife, she cleverly explained that he was just a cousin from afar who came for help because of a sudden change in his family.
At that time, he felt so distressed when he saw his wife's pitiful appearance that he immediately chose to believe her.
Now that I think about it, that might be a clue to the lady's crime.
"There was also that time when the family's property disappeared inexplicably. Madam said that the maid was dishonest and had expelled her from the house. I didn't even investigate further and was just brushed off by her."
The more Lord Pei thought about it, the more he felt himself to be extremely stupid.
"I was such a fool. I was blinded by the so-called love between husband and wife and was completely unaware of her abnormalities."
Seeing Lord Pei's regretful expression, Mrs. Pei became anxious.
