Chapter 862: Daughter Signs Signature and Mother Turns Against Her
Wang was still crying, but the yamen runners had already started beating her with a stick.
The board fell again and again on Zhang Miaotong's buttocks which had just been beaten to pieces. The pain could be imagined.
Zhang Miaotong's screams almost pierced the eardrums of everyone present!
"what!
You dog officer, you really...really dare to hit...ah...this lady...
what! ”
As the board continued to fall, Zhang Miaotong kept howling in pain.
Finally, "Don't... don't... ah... stop hitting me... ah! Stop hitting me!"
Zhang Miaotong finally stopped yelling and cursing.
Zheng Tong raised his hand slightly, and the bailiff stopped what he was doing.
"Criminal Zhang Miaotong, are you ready to sign your name?"
The prefect Zheng Tong asked.
"No...no!
What I...what I just said...is all...all true!
You...you hit me, King Yi...he...he won't...will not let you go!"
"is it?
How stubborn, obstinate and stupid!
Keep beating her until she confesses!"
Zheng Tong spoke.
"Yes, my lord!"
They've only been spanked a few times, it's still too early!
The yamen runners raised their water and fire sticks again and continued beating.
After a few more blows, Zhang Miaotong's voice became so hoarse that she could hardly make a sound!
Zhang Miaotong's mind also began to become chaotic...
She felt... that her life was about to say goodbye to her!
She doesn't want to die yet. She is still young and has more wealth and honor to enjoy!
Zhang Miaotong comforted herself in her heart that as long as she was alive, King Yi would save her, he would be able to save her.
The last bit of faith in her heart supported Zhang Miaotong. With her last bit of strength, she shouted, "Don't... don't... don't hit me... I... sign!"
Although the sound she made was not loud and was unclear and hoarse, fortunately the yamen runner still heard it.
After another blow from the stick, the bailiff stopped and said, "Sir, the criminal agrees to sign!"
"Tong'er, don't!
Don't be confused!
You can’t sign it! You can’t!”
When Wang heard Zhang Miaotong agree to sign, she immediately became anxious!
As long as Zhang Miaotong signs her signature, their Cifu Mansion will collapse in an instant.
Zhang Miaoying, who was beside Wang... was unusually calm at this moment.
Zhang Miaoying neither stopped Wang from crying nor stopped Zhang Miaotong from signing, as if all this had nothing to do with her.
"whispering sound!
Couldn't you have signed the agreement earlier? You could have suffered less physical pain.
I really don't know how Zhang Cifu raised his daughter to be so arrogant, so presumptuous, and yet so stupid! "
There was another round of discussion among the people around.
"No!
The matter has already been decided, why are you still resisting? "
One person shook his head in disdain.
“What can I say!
Dad is in prison;
Her mother and sister also became defendants along with her;
The brothers-in-law who could speak a few words for them... uh... or lovers, all left without a moment's notice.
If she denies it any longer, she will only get a few more beatings!
I can’t even figure this out!”
"Otherwise why do you say Zhang Miaotong is stupid!"
"..."
"Come on," let the criminal sign it!
Prefect Zheng Tong gave the order.
"Yes, my lord!"
Mr. Zhou bowed and accepted the order, then walked over with the complaint.
Zhang Miaotong looked at the beautiful and powerful handwriting in front of her, and inexplicably felt that... this should have been written by Leng Rongyue himself.
Can someone who can write such beautiful characters...be a talentless person?
The handwriting reflects the person, so what will Leng Rongyue be like...
Zhang Miaotong didn't want to think about it anymore.
The outstretched hand is withdrawn;
Fingers open and clench...
Finally, he reluctantly pressed a bloody fingerprint on the complaint.
Mr. Zhou sent the petition with Zhang Miaotong's fingerprints back to the prefect Zheng Tong.
The fingerprints were pressed, and Zhang Miaotong fell limply on the big bench like a rag that had been wrung out of water.
"Tong'er, you are confused!
Why do you want to sign?
Have you ever thought about what your mother will do after you sign your name?
What will happen to our Cifu Mansion?
Even if you are beaten to death... you can't draw this seal!
You...you...you useless thing, you are causing your mother so much pain!"
Zhang Miaotong signed her name, and no one from Wang's side tried to stop her.
Wang rushed to the big bench, not caring about Zhang Miaotong's injuries, but just venting her resentment.
Wang raised her hand and hit Zhang Miaotong on the back again and again...
While beating, complaining and cursing...
Zhang Miaotong weakly turned her head, opened her eyes, and looked in shock at her mother, who was always so kind to her and always doted on her...
There is no more kindness. On the mother's face and in her eyes... there is only disappointment and resentment!
In her mother's eyes, she was no longer the precious daughter who had high hopes for her to become a princess or even a queen in the future, but just an enemy who had ruined her wealth and glory in the second half of her life!
"Mother?"
Zhang Miaotong called out "Mom" in her almost hoarse voice, her eyes full of disbelief.
"Don't call me mother!
I don't have a useless daughter like you!"
After saying that, he glanced at Zhang Miaotong hatefully, turned his head away and stopped looking at her.
