Before Jiang Nianjiao could speak, the old woman knelt down. She kowtowed repeatedly and said, "Girl, although I don't know what mistakes I and my granddaughter have made, I still want to ask the girl to let us live. Don't Drive my mother-in-law and grandson out of the house! If we leave the house today, there will be no way to survive.
After saying this, she saw that her granddaughter was still standing there like a stupid piece of wood, so she quickly glared at the girl.
After Ni Zhenzhu was glared at, she realized what she was doing, and she quickly knelt on the ground.
The old woman then continued, "Madam, the child Pearl and I fled all the way to Shangjing. During this time, her father and brother died on the way. I'm afraid we won't be able to return to our hometown now. There is no one in the Chen family now." Yes, if I have done something wrong, I am willing to bear the responsibility, but I just want to ask Madam to be kind and at least give Pearl a place to stay. She is now the only child of the Ni family."
Jiang Nianjiao didn't answer when she heard this. She just looked at Ni Zhenzhen and said, "Zhenzhen, don't you feel sad that your grandma is begging for you like this?"
Ni Pearl lowered her head and rubbed her fingers uneasily. She said nothing.
When Jiang Nianjiao saw that she didn't respond, she said to Lianying, "Lianying, go and call Cuiqiao over."
Lingying nodded, and within a moment, Cuiqiao arrived.
Jiang Nianjiao pointed to the person below and asked Cui Qiao, "Ah Qiao, when you took the food box yesterday, was this the girl who brought it to you?"
Cuiqiao looked at Ni Zhenzhu, then shook her head and said, "It's not this girl. The one who delivered the food box yesterday was a big girl. She doesn't look as skinny as her."
Hearing this, Jiang Nianjiao said to Ni Zhenzhen, "Zhenzhu, your grandma asked you to bring me food, right? After that, who did you ask to bring you food?"
Ni Pearl didn't say anything, but that old woman was such a shrewd person. As soon as she heard Jiang Nianjiao ask this question, she realized that the problem might be with the food, and because this girl remained silent, she definitely didn't follow her instructions.
Thinking of this, she just slapped Ni Zhenzhu on the back, "You damn girl! Please tell me something. Yesterday I asked you to deliver the food in person. Who did you ask to deliver the food for you later?" ah?"
However, Ni Zhenzhu was slapped two or three times by the old woman without any intention of making a sound.
"If you don't tell, we have a way to know who that person is. But if we find out, you will be an accomplice." Lingying only threatened.
Hearing this, the old woman became even more anxious. Seeing that slap was about to hit Ni Zhenzhu's head.
But at this moment Jiang Nianjiao shouted, "Stop."
At this time, the old woman had no choice but to stop her hand. Jiang Nianjiao walked to Ni Zhenzhu's side, and she only helped Ni Zhenzhu up.
Ni Zhenzhu, who was helped up, seemed even more frightened. She didn't know what kind of fate was waiting for her. Even when Jiang Nianjiao's hand fell on her head, she only shrank her neck unconsciously.
However, Jiang Nianjiao's hand only gently landed on her head.
She could smell the delicious fragrance of the young woman in front of her.
Then Jiang Nianjiao only motioned to Lianying to take the old woman down with her.
Although the old woman hit her granddaughter, it was obvious that she still felt sorry for her granddaughter.
When she saw Jiang Nianjiao staying with her granddaughter, she felt a little uneasy.
But she didn't dare to disobey her master's orders if she didn't leave.
Ni Zhenzhu was also a little scared, and she only looked at her grandmother frequently from time to time.
When Jiang Nianjiao saw their posture, she just said, "Grandma, don't worry, I won't do anything to Pearl. I just want to talk to her."
Seeing that Jiang Nianjiao had said so, the old woman felt relieved and left.
However, Ni Pearl was still a little uneasy. She didn't know what fate was waiting for her. She didn't look back until the door was completely closed.
When they were the only two people left in the room, Jiang Nianjiao just said, "Pearl, do you know why I came to see you today?"
Pearl looked at Jiang Nianjiao blankly, still saying nothing.
Jiang Nianjiao was not surprised. She only continued, "Actually, if it is a trivial matter, I
Of course I won't cause trouble for you, but the plate of cakes last night was laced with ***. "
Hearing this, Ni Pearl's eyes only showed panic.
Seeing that her expression was a little shaken, Jiang Nianjiao continued, "Zhenzhu, I know you are a loyal girl, and you are definitely not willing to break your own promises when you promise others. But you think about others, have you ever thought about this? Do people deserve your loyalty?"
"After all, if another master finds out about what she did, she will be beaten and sold out."
"Do you think she could not know the consequences? But she knows the consequences? But she still allows you and your grandma to bear such guilt. What do you think this person has in mind?"
Hearing this, Ni Zhenzhu only twisted her hands and became more and more deformed.
Jiang Nianjiao, on the other hand, continued to be persuasive and said, "When pearls interact with people, they have to see the nature of that person. If there are people in this world who treat each other with sincerity, there will be people who will take advantage of them."
At this point, Jiang Nianjiao then said, "Zhenzhu, as long as you tell me who that person is, even if she really let the woman go, I can forgive her and send her out of the house, and you and your grandma can also." You don’t have to suffer, are you willing to do that?”
Ni Zhenzhu did not speak immediately. Jiang Nianjiao just waited patiently for a moment. After a while, Ni Zhenzhu couldn't stand it anymore. She only asked in a low voice, "Is everything the madam said true?"
Jiang Nianjiao nodded quietly.
Then Ni Pearl seemed to have finally made up her mind. She just said, "Yesterday when my grandma asked me to deliver food to Madam, I had a stomachache on the way. Then I met Sister Zhang Yan, so I asked Zhang Yan My sister went to deliver food for me, so I think she has nothing to do with this."
Jiang Nianjiao only comforted her, "If it really has nothing to do with it, I will naturally not embarrass her."
Then she just said loudly to the outside, "Okay, come in."...
After hearing this, as soon as Lianying opened the door, the old woman went in to see her granddaughter.
She was relieved to see that her granddaughter was okay.
And Jiang Nianjiao also said to the mother-in-law and grandson, "You go down first."
However, Ni Zhenzhu remained motionless after hearing this. She said, "Madam, are you going to find her later?"
Jiang Nianjiao nodded.
Ni Pearl then became even more reluctant to leave. She only whispered, "Can I stay?"
When the old woman heard that her granddaughter wanted to stay here, she quickly slapped her granddaughter again, "You damn girl, what nonsense are you talking about? Madam, what are you looking at?"
Jiang Nianjiao said, "Of course."
After hearing Jiang Nianjiao's words, the girl immediately ran to Jiang Nianjiao's side.
Seeing that Jiang Nianjiao didn't look like she was going to deal with her granddaughter, the old woman had no choice but to let her go.
Not long after the old woman left, a tall young woman wearing a floral jacket, messy hair, and pale face was brought up.
At the moment, her steps were sluggish, and she clearly looked like she was suffering from tuberculosis.
The person who brought her here only let her go, and then she fell to the ground.
Looking at the woman, Ni Pearl immediately ran over and prepared to help her up.
However, as soon as the woman saw her, she showed an extremely malicious look. She just pushed Ni Zhenzhu away and said fiercely, "There's no need for you to be pretentious."
Ni Pearl's eyes clearly flashed with confusion, grievance and loss after being pushed away.
Jiang Nianjiao naturally saw all this, but she was not prepared to interfere. After all, the best way for one person to see the true face of another person is to experience it with her own eyes.
"Are you Zhang Yan?" Jiang Nianjiao asked in a low voice.
The woman glanced sideways at Jiang Nianjiao and said, "Yes."
"Did you give me the meal on behalf of Pearl before?" Jiang Nianjiao then asked.
The woman just managed to be patient and said, "Yes."
"Then it was you who committed the attack?" Jiang Nianjiao then asked.
The woman just answered yes.
And it was obvious that she was not acting out of inertia.
After responding to this sentence, she only continued, "Haven't you already found out? Are you still asking these questions now?"
What to do with something you already know? You'd better just tell us how you plan to punish us. "
Jiang Nianjiao quickly noticed the loopholes in the woman's words.
"Do you have any accomplices?"
The woman said impatiently, "Didn't you arrest him? Why are you asking about his accomplices now?"
"Who is he?" Jiang Nianjiao asked further.
At this time, the woman finally realized the problem, "Didn't you catch me?"
Jiang Nianjiao didn't answer her, but when she realized this, her face turned pale at the moment.
"How could this happen? If it weren't for you, who would have captured him." Zhang Yan murmured to herself.
"Who is he?" Jiang Nianjiao continued to ask.
However, after Zhang Yan realized that Jiang Nianjiao might not know anything, she just kept silent.
Jiang Nianjiao was not as patient with her as Ni Pearl.
And she could also see that Ni Zhenzhu was soft-hearted rather than tough.
This person is the type who fears power but not virtue.
Therefore, Jiang Nianjiao only winked at Lianying, and then slightly gestured in the direction of Ni Pearl.
Ni Pearl was still surprised at this time. She obviously never expected that Zhang Yan would actually do such a thing.
It's ridiculous that she wanted to explain it to her just now.
"Sister Zhang Yan, you didn't do this, right?" Ni Zhenzhu whispered.
"Does what I did have nothing to do with you? Am I here now because you didn't report me? Since you reported me? Why are you here pretending to be a good person?"
Suddenly being scolded by Zhang Yan, Ni Zhenzhu was immediately speechless.
Lianying, who had just received the instruction, naturally just coaxed Ni Zhenzhen and said, "Zhenzhu, let's go out."
However, Ni Pearl refused to leave, and then she suddenly knelt down.
