After Three Years of Slavery, the Entire Mansion Begged Me for Forgiveness

Chapter 134

The old lady felt tired soon after she woke up and fell asleep again.

Qiao Nian covered the old lady with the quilt and then went out with Nanny Su.

After the door was closed, Qiao Nian said worriedly, "Why does grandma's health seem to be getting worse?"

Aunt Su sighed, "The doctor said that the old lady's body won't last long. Now she still relies on the fine supplements that General Xiao sends every month."

From this point alone, Qiao Nian was grateful to Xiao Heng from the bottom of his heart.

Most of the precious medicinal materials the emperor rewarded him went into the Hou Mansion.

If it weren't for those rewards, the Hou Mansion, which was now in danger, would definitely not have been able to sustain the old lady for so long.

Seeing that Qiao Nian was silent, Grandma Su couldn't help but speak, "I just heard that the eldest lady has found the person she likes?"

Qiao Nian was depressed because she was worried about the old lady, so she just nodded slightly.

But I heard Nanny Su say, "If possible, Miss, please get married as soon as possible! The old lady's biggest wish is to see you, Miss, in your wedding dress. If you don't get married, I'm afraid..."

At this point, Grandma Su couldn't speak any more.

He just lowered his head and kept wiping his tears.

Qiao Nian's eyes were also red from the infection.

They all knew that their grandmother was dying.

Can……

Things between her and Jing Yan couldn't go smoothly that way.

At this moment, Qiao Nian suddenly felt very sorry for her grandmother.

The powerful feeling of guilt came over her, making it extremely difficult for her to breathe.

Seeing her like this, Grandma Su couldn't help but say, "Actually, General Xiao..."

Halfway through her words, Grandma Su stopped talking again.

In her opinion, she was just a slave and could not interfere with her masters' affairs.

What's more, General Xiao had specifically told the old lady not to let the eldest lady know. Now that the old lady hasn't said anything, how can she speak easily?

At that moment, he just sighed and said, "That's all, I know that the young lady must have her own ideas."

After that, Nanny Su bowed and went back to the house to watch over the old lady.

Looking at the door that was closed again, Qiao Nian felt very uncomfortable. She knew that in the old lady's heart, Xiao Heng was the best candidate in the world, so Aunt Su must have wanted to persuade her to accept Xiao Heng just now, right?

However, she and Xiao Heng have long been a thing of the past. Not to mention that Xiao Heng is now Lin Yuan's fiancé. Even if he is not, she will never have anything to do with Xiao Heng again.

The past will always remain in the past.

After leaving the old lady's yard, Qiao Nian left the house.

She asked the doctor yesterday to get some medicine, which was very helpful in recovering from the trauma, and she was about to give it to Jing Yan now.

However, the soldiers guarding outside the military camp said that Jing Yan was not in the army today.

Qiao Nian only thought that maybe Jing Yan had returned to his residence.

However, when Qiao Nian arrived outside the private house where Jing Yan rented, she discovered that the door was locked.

Jing Yan did not come back.

"Miss, has Deputy Jing returned to his home?" Ningshuang asked, standing next to Qiao Nian.

Jing Yan's home was in Mutian Village outside the city. Qiao Nian thought that since Jing Yan was injured, he might have gone home to recuperate.

But... he should have told her before he went home to recuperate!

With a hint of worry rising in her heart, Qiao Nian handed the medicine bottle to Xiaocui, "Find someone to go to Mutian Village and have a look. If he is there, give these to him. If he is not..."

As she said this, her heart was already beating violently.

Ningshuang didn't know why, "What would happen if he wasn't here?"

If he is not here, it proves that Lord Lin has already taken action against Jing Yan!

But Qiao Nian didn't say this. She didn't want Ningshuang to worry too. She just smiled at Ningshuang and said, "It's okay. Let's go back home first."

Ningshuang moved quickly, and soon after returning home, she found someone to go to Mutian Village.

During this period, Qiao Nian stayed in the house and waited, her heart still unable to calm down.

It wasn't until the evening that the boy who went to Mutian Village came back after a long journey.

Qiao Nian asked hurriedly, "How is it? Can you see Vice General Jing?"

The boy shook his head, handed over the medicine intact, and said, "I didn't see Vice General Jing in Mutian Village, and even Vice General Jing's family members were missing. I only heard from the villagers that the Jingzhao incident happened last night." People from the government came and took away Vice General Jing’s father. Vice General Jing’s mother and sister must have come to the capital to find a solution for Vice General Jing.”

Sure enough, something happened!

Qiao Nian clenched his fists and asked hurriedly, "Has anyone from Jingzhao Mansion said anything about Vice General Jing's father?"

"Said he killed someone."

What the boy said shocked Qiao Nian!

kill?

This is a serious crime that requires beheading!

Could it be that in order to force her to submit, Mr. Lin could go so far as to disregard human life?

Qiao Nian got up and walked out.

Ningshuang followed up in a hurry, "Where are you going, Miss?"

"Jingzhao Mansion."

When Qiao Nian arrived, dusk was already deep.

The clouds in the sky seemed to be stained with blood, and they shone on the figure outside Jingzhao Mansion, making the blood stains on the white gauze particularly obvious.

Qiao Nian's heart suddenly twitched hard. She took two deep breaths to adjust her expression and emotions before stepping forward and said, "Jing Yan."

A soft call made Jing Yan stiffen all over.

He turned around in surprise and looked at Qiao Nian in disbelief, "Why are you here?"

Qiao Nian walked to Jing Yan's side, but was speechless for a moment.

She wanted to ask Jing Yan why he didn't tell her about such a big thing, but she knew the answer without asking. Jing Yan was afraid that she would worry.

So, she glanced at the closed door of Jingzhao Mansion and then said, "What happened?"

Jing Yan sighed slightly and then said, "My father will come to the city to buy things every once in a while. When he was purchasing the day before yesterday, he had a dispute with a merchant. Last night, the government officials arrested my father and said that he had The merchant who had an argument with him died. They said that the merchant had a hidden illness and was angry to death from my father. "

"Are you so angry?" Qiao Nian couldn't help but be shocked, "How can there be such a ridiculous crime in this world?"

Jing Yan also found it unbelievable and said, "So I came to see Fu Yin to find out if there was any misunderstanding, but..."

He had been waiting for a day, and the governor kept saying that he had something to do but did not see him.

At this moment, a voice sounded not far away, "Hey, who is this!"

Qiao Nian and Jing Yan looked at the sound together and saw a carriage coming towards them. Sitting in the carriage was Qiu Yu, the grandson of the Grand Tutor!

Qiu Yu's left eye was bruised and swollen, and the corner of his mouth was still purple, but at this moment, he was smiling extremely proudly at Jing Yan, "Why is Deputy General Jing waiting at the door of Jingzhao Mansion? Could it be that someone in the family has committed a crime? Right? Hahaha..."
