The inner voice was overheard, and the whole court was eating melons together

Chapter 358: The follow-up to Mrs. Qiu (2)

The children's bodies were covered with all sorts of random patterns, similar to the ones on the amulets in temples.

The eldest daughter-in-law immediately turned around and asked Mrs. Qiu:

"Mom, what happened to Daya?"

Mrs. Qiu didn't say anything.

When Qiu Daniu heard the sound, he hurried over. He saw the runes on Daya's body at a glance, and took a closer look. They were all drawn with cinnabar.

At this moment, the eldest daughter-in-law immediately brought a basin of water and quickly started to wash the child.

The child's body is covered with marks and he can't wear the clothes anymore. He needs to be cleaned.

Mrs. Qiu didn't say anything, so the soldier next to her started to explain and told everyone everything that Mrs. Qiu had done.

The crowd was in an uproar.

Everyone looked at Mrs. Qiu with contempt. Is this person crazy?

Daya is also her granddaughter, how could she have the heart to do that to her?

Fortunately, the officers and soldiers arrived in time and rescued Daya!

Qiu Daniu looked at his mother in disbelief and asked:

"Mom, is what he said true?"

Mrs. Qiu knew that the truth had been revealed, so she no longer had any scruples and said:

"It's because you are useless. I gave birth to five of you brothers, but you and the third oldest brother gave birth to two girls, and the other daughters-in-law's bellies are not showing any signs of pregnancy!

Can I not be anxious?

If you could give birth to grandchildren, I wouldn't have resorted to such a desperate measure!

After all, it's because you are useless!

What's wrong with me wanting to hold a big fat grandson? "

Qiu Daniu's eyes were red as he said:

"Mom, it's true that you want to have a big, fat grandson, but you can't use evil magic to harm Daya, she is also your granddaughter.

That’s my only child!”

Mrs. Qiu said disdainfully:

"She is just a little girl. If she can use her life to exchange for the life of my grandson, it will be her blessing!

You already have a son, so why do you still need that little girl, Daya?"

Qiu Daniu didn't expect his mother to say such words and was extremely disappointed in her.

Qiu Sanniu and his wife were now holding their daughter and examining her carefully.

Fortunately, his daughter Erya was fine, and Qiu Sanniu finally felt relieved.

When Mrs. Qiu was taken away, her two sons and two daughters-in-law didn't say anything!

Especially Qiu Daniu, he was angry with Mrs. Qiu, how could he possibly beg for mercy?

Besides, witchcraft is prohibited in Tianfeng Country. Now that Mrs. Qiu has done such a thing, the emperor has spared her from being implicated. This is already a sign of his mercy. They dare not say anything more now!

If we are considered as accomplices, we will be in trouble!

When the other sons of Mrs. Qiu came back and heard what she had done, they were not surprised at all that their mother could do such a thing.

They knew very well how stingy Mrs. Qiu was usually. Today, for the first time ever, she gave them some money and asked them to go shopping. They felt uneasy.

Sure enough, their intuition was right.

It turned out that he sent them away in order to harm Daya.

Mrs. Qiu is still the same Mrs. Qiu. She has never changed. She is always so sarcastic and has her own purpose for everything she does.

After Mrs. Qiu was arrested, news about her enemies spread quickly.

Many people said that Mrs. Qiu was extremely bold and dared to commit crimes even though it was strictly prohibited by the imperial court.

However, some people noticed a detail. They had never heard of this before. Could Mrs. Qiu be a witch? Who did she learn this from?

Everyone is guessing whether the sons of the enemy family have also inherited the true teachings of Mrs. Qiu and are also able to master these evil arts?

At this time someone stood up and said that since the court did not arrest the sons of the enemies, it meant that they were innocent.

It’s better to say less about things that don’t exist. That’s a capital crime. It’s better not to speak without thinking, so as not to bring trouble upon yourself.

After Mrs. Qiu was arrested, the brothers of the Qiu family sat together. They were all wondering when their mother knew these things and how come they never knew about it?

Qiu Erniu hesitated for a long time before telling the story of how he and Mrs. Qiu encountered two groups of people fighting each other and how they made money from the dead.

Finally, Qiu Erniu said:

“At that time, we found a book from a dead person, and my mother kept the book.

That book should be about witchcraft.

I never thought that my mother would practice evil magic according to the above."

After hearing this, several people looked at Qiu Erniu in shock. Qiu Sanniu said:

"Why didn't you tell us?"

"Mother didn't allow me to tell you."

Qiu Wuniu asked doubtfully:

"Isn't our mother literate? How did she understand the contents of the book?"

Everyone shook their heads.

Qiu Sanniu: "Mom is not stupid, she would never show this book to others.

How did my mother understand that? Only she knows!"

Everyone also noticed another problem. Qiu Siniu asked:

"What about the silver? How much is it exactly?"

Qiu Erniu scratched his head:

"Anyway, a lot of it was found at the time, and my mother kept it all. I really don't know how many there are exactly."

"How come you don't know anything?

You are such an honest fool! "

Qiu Erniu explained:

"You all know my mother's temper. She has already told me, and I dare not disobey her orders!"

Now that Mrs. Qiu has been arrested, we can’t let the money disappear, right?

The house is so small, where can Mrs. Qiu hide the silver and money?

After discussing it, they decided to find the silver even if they had to dig three feet into the ground.

So the whole family started looking for it bit by bit, and finally found the silver and money in eight places.

I have to say that Mrs. Qiu is still very cautious and knows that eggs should not be put in one basket!

The brothers who were enemies were very happy. They counted the money and found that there were tens of thousands of taels.

They decided to divide it equally. After that, the five brothers would be separated and live their own lives from then on.

When we need help, we can still help each other!

When Mrs. Qiu was arrested, she originally wanted to tell Qiu Daniu and Qiu Sanniu where she had hidden her money, but seeing their cold attitude, Mrs. Qiu's heart sank.

She didn't expect that the child she raised would not even have the intention to speak for her or plead for her for that little girl.

In that case, there is no need to tell them about the money.

At this time, Mrs. Qiu had forgotten about Qiu Erniu, who was another person who knew the truth. Even if Mrs. Qiu didn't tell her sons, they would know about the silver and money, and the silver and money would be found out.

Mrs. Qiu was arrested and found red-handed, and was sentenced to immediate execution!

The matter of Mrs. Qiu was resolved in this way.

It was several days later that Song Yaoyao found out about Mrs. Qiu.

The emperor once again issued an order in the court that witchcraft is prohibited in Tianfeng Kingdom, and once discovered, there will be no mercy!
