Chapter 758 He Xiwu
Chapter 758 He Xiwu
He Xiwu stopped looking at her husband and raised her head and asked:
"Sir, if I confess everything, can you give me a lighter sentence?"
Lord Yang nodded:
"I will consider it."
“Thank you, sir.
When I found out about this, Yun Zhiyou had already arrived at our Yun family.
I was very puzzled as to why the Yun family had a new child. My husband said that the child was picked up by my eldest brother and his wife when they were out.
My husband said that the family decided to send He Zhizhi away, and my eldest brother and sister-in-law were very sad about this. In order to make them feel at ease, they decided to adopt this picked up child!
At that time, I didn't suspect anything.
A year passed like this.
One time, I overheard my husband and elder brother say that it seemed that bringing Yun Zhiyou to the Yun family was the right move.
Look at our Yun family, everyone’s health has improved, and our Yun family’s business is becoming more and more prosperous.
Yun Zhiyou is indeed a lucky star!
My husband said that we must keep it a secret from Yun Zhiyou’s biological parents and must not let them know.
They are members of the Guan family. Once this matter is exposed, the Yun family will be doomed!
The more I listened, the more confused I became. This obviously meant that the Yun family knew who Yun Zhiyou's biological parents were?
Since you knew that you had picked up someone else's child, why didn't you send the child back?
Maybe I can use this opportunity to get close to the Guan family?
I wanted to figure out what was going on. I listened for a long time before I finally figured out that Yun Zhiyou was stolen by someone sent by the old man.
I was shocked at the time. We were just ordinary merchants. How dare they steal the children of officials?
I didn't notice that I stepped on something and made a noise.
My husband and the others found me.
Now that I had heard it, they did not hide it from me any longer and told me everything.
I was shocked at that time!
They threatened me that I must not reveal a single word of this matter. If Yun Zhiyou's biological parents got to know about it, our Yun family would be doomed.
I am also a member of the Yun family and I cannot escape.
I was so scared that I gave in."
Lord Yang continued to ask:
"Later, you also knew about Yun Zhiyou's abuse?"
"Know.
I talked about this with my husband, and he said that Yun Zhiyou is now the eldest wife's child, and it is inappropriate for us to interfere in her affairs.
I also talked about this matter vaguely with my sister-in-law, asking them to be nicer to Yun Zhiyou.
But the eldest sister-in-law said that they regretted bringing Yun Zhiyou back home. She was not a lucky star at all, she was just an ordinary child.
Everything that happened to the Yun family before was just a coincidence. Yun Zhizhi is not a disaster star, and it is not Yun Zhiyou’s credit that the Yun family is getting better.
Since it was not Yun Zhiyou's credit, there was no need for them to feed her well.
They were already very merciful by not kicking Yun Zhiyou out of the house.
When I tried to persuade her again, my eldest sister-in-law said that this was their eldest wife’s business and asked our second wife not to interfere!
I didn't want to have any conflicts with my first wife, so I never mentioned the matter again.
But I have helped Yun Zhiyou.
At first, she was driven to the side courtyard, and I sent a maid to bring her some things.
Zhiyou was too young and didn’t hide her things well. When she was discovered, people accused her of stealing.
She said someone left the things at her door, but no one believed her, and she was beaten for it.
I found out about this several days later. Since then, I have been very careful every time I send a maid to deliver something. I never send too much, for fear that someone will find out and the girl will get beaten again. "
Yun Zhiyou looked at He Xiwu in astonishment:
"Over the years, I have received some things every once in a while, and it turns out they were sent by you!"
"Yes, I sent someone to deliver it.
The Yun family stole you out of selfish desires, and we are already very sorry for you. Our second branch has also benefited a lot from this, so I can only do my best to help you."
"Those things helped me a lot. Whenever I had no food to eat, I would take some out and eat them so I wouldn't starve to death!"
Everyone looked at him in surprise
He Xiwu continued:
"Sir, I have said everything I need to say. Please be lenient with me because I took the initiative to confess."
Lord Yang nodded and continued to ask:
"The rest of you, do you have anything else to say?"
He Xiwu's husband Yun Xian said:
“Sir, although we in the Second House all know about this, we have never abused Yun Zhiyou.
Please, sir, be lenient with our second branch because my wife has helped Yun Zhiyou for so many years."
"Yun Xian, you were also involved in stealing the child, right?"
"Yes."
“Since you participated in stealing the child, you are not innocent at all!
Also, although you did not participate in the abuse of Yun Zhiyou over the years, your indifference represents your attitude.
You are not innocent at all.”
The three children from the second branch of the Yun family were all kneeling down at this moment, and they were all trembling with fear.
Lord Yang looked at them and asked:
"As for stealing the child, you were very young at the time, and it had nothing to do with you.
But, whether you abused Yun Zhiyou or not, I have sent people to your house to investigate, and there will be results soon!"
“Sir, we have never bullied or abused Yun Zhiyou. My mother has repeatedly warned us in private not to do anything against Yun Zhiyou.
When my cousins bullied and abused Yun Zhiyou, we all found excuses to leave.
Please investigate this carefully.”
"I know about this, and I will definitely investigate it thoroughly."
……
Yunling looked at Yunling and said:
"I never thought that your Second Branch was so cunning and did so many things right under our noses."
He Xiwu said:
"Brother, we advised you not to do it too far, but you didn't listen to us. Now that the truth has been revealed, who can you blame?"
……
Soon, the yamen runner who went to the Yun family to find out the situation came back.
The children from the second branch of the Yun family never bullied or abused Yun Zhiyou, but they never helped her either.
The only person in the entire Yun family who had helped Yun Zhiyou was He Xiwu, and this had been confirmed by He Xiwu's maid.
Things have become clear.
Things had come to this point, and Yunling had nothing to hide anymore. He answered whatever Lord Yang asked and explained the whole cause and effect of stealing the child.
What he confessed was exactly the same as the evidence scattered on the unidentified object.
Old Master Yun fell to the ground, he knew that everything was over!
Looking back, Master Wu Jin once said that this matter would backfire in the future, and asked him if he would still insist on doing it?
He asked the master what kind of backlash it would be? The master said that their Yun family would be destroyed.
Grandpa Yun felt that now that he knew about the backlash, he could definitely avoid it as long as he was careful.
Now it seems that the prosperity of the Yun family is due to Yun Zhiyou, and the backlash is also because of her.
If he had known this would happen, he wouldn't have done it so drastically.
It's too late now!
