Marriage of the Di Daughter Chapter 117 Part 2: Public Sentiment
When Dai Yun lost her husband, she was still young and good looking. There were many slanders befalling the widow and many people had ideas on her. However, Dai Yun and her late husband had deep sentiments and she wasnโt willing to remarry. When Ping An was two and a half years old, she got seriously ill. Dai Yun had no choice but to ask around to borrow money to see the doctor. When Ping An got better, Dai Yun had spent a lot of money. For a long time, the creditors had coveted Dai Yunโs beauty and wanted her to be a concubine to pay off the silver money. Dai Yun did not agree and those people threatened to grab Ping An and sell her to the brothel.
At her desperate time, Xue Huai Yuan stood out, rescued Ping An who was taken away, and settled the debt of the mother and daughter. The person who sent the silver at that time was Xue Huai Yuanโs daughter. Dai Yun still remembered the Xue familyโs daughterโs appearance. She sighed emotionally, thinking how could there be such a gorgeous and kindhearted girl on earth. Ping An was also very fond of the Xue familyโs daughter, and would giggle when she met.
Dai Yun was very flustered now that Jiang Li suddenly brought up the old affair. She did not wish for her daughter Ping An to know that she was an ungrateful person. However, she could not take Ping Anโs safety as a joke. All the people in Tongxiang were aware of what kind of person Feng Yu Tang was. Those who obeyed him flourished while those who did not perished. If Feng Yu Tang was aware that she stood as a witness, Feng Yu Tang definitely would not let Ping An go.
Sheโs a mother and she could not walked helplessly as her child fell into danger.
Dai Yun looked at Jiang Li with a trace of appeal in her eyes, โMiss Jiang, weโฆ.. We really donโt know, just look for other peopleโฆ.. Just regard it as we let County Deputy Xue downโฆ..โ
Jiang Li did not say anything, but Dai Yun could still see the trace of disappointment in the otherโs eyes. At that moment, perhaps due to guilty conscience, the absent-minded Dai Yun felt as if the one she saw wasnโt this unfamiliar Miss Jiang, but the beautiful and kindhearted Xue familyโs daughter. Her gentle smile was no longer there, just sitting calmly and looked disappointedly at her. fre ewebno vel.com
Dai Yun suddenly felt so ashamed to see her.
Jiang Li got up, touched Ping Anโs head and said, โSince thatโs the case, Iโll look for someone else.โ She said to Dai Yun, โIโve disturbed you.โ Then she turned around to walk outside.
Justโฆ like that? Dai Yun said, โMiss Jiangโฆ..โ When Jiang Li stopped, she didnโt know how to express what she wanted to say to sound better. After a long time, she hesitatingly said, โMaybe the other people in Tongxiangโฆ.. Will also be like meโฆ..โ She could not continue. ๐๐ป๐๐๐๐๐ซ๐ท๐ค๐๐๐ก.๐๐ค๐
Jiang Li said, โI know, but no matter how, County Deputy Xue really has no other hope. I am very glad that Deputy County Xue did not just help one household in the past. 568 households, thereโs still a lot of prospect. If he only helped a few people, and those few people are all like you, then the hope will really be lost.โ After a pause, she continued, โBring Ping An up carefully, since you have paid such a heavy price, you must not give up.โ
Jiang Li left.
Dai Yun lowered her head, Ping An held the corner of her skirt, opened her eyes wide, and called naively, โMother.โ
Tears fell like rain on Dai Yunโs face.

On the other side, Ye Ming Yu was knocking on the door of another family.
This family was very poor, living in a broken down thatched hut. Perhaps due to last nightโs wind and snow, the whole hut seemed to be on the verge of collapse, making the onlookers feel sad. Since childhood, Ye Ming Yu had been living in a rich house and saw very few of this kind of impoverished families. It was a rare sight for him.
After a long time, someone came to open the door. It was a very old lady dressed in a very thin cotton-padded jacket, seen through in the light. Ye Ming Yu even felt cold upon seeing it.
The old lady saw Ye Ming Yu, but it was as if she didnโt see him. She asked doubtfully, โIs someone here? You areโฆ..?โ
The woman was blind and could not see anything.
Ye Ming Yu said, โOld lady, is your son around? Iโm here looking for your son.โ In the book written by Jiang Li for Ye Ming Yu, thereโs a scholar in this household.
โOh, you are looking for Wen Xuan.โ The old lady said, โHe went out to buy beancurd and will return soon. Why are you looking for him?โ
Her voice just fell when a voice sounded from outside, โMother, Iโm back!โ
Mo Wen Xuan just returned home and caught sight of a tall man standing in front of his door. When the man turned around, he saw a scar on the manโs face, looking completely like a bandit. Mo Wen Xuan jumped in fright, nearly throwing the beancurd in his hand away. He asked, โThis brotherโฆ..โ
โAre you Mo Wen Xuan?โ Ye Ming Yu sized Mo Wen Xuan up and down. Mo Wen Xuan was almost 30, unmarried, and single. Not because of anything else, simply because his family was too poor. He studied wholeheartedly, yet until now he still only passed the county level imperial exam. His hair was disorderly and his beard grew long. He wore a cotton gown that had turned white from too many washes. He could not see people clearly and had to come closer.
Mo Wen Xuan said, โYes.โ
โI am looking for you for some matters.โ Ye Ming Yu said straightforwardly, โTake a step to speak.โ He wanted to convince Mo Wen Xuan to be a witness and naturally could not let such an old lady hear. So he hinted to Mo Wen Xuan to go outside to speak.
Although the old lady was hesitant, she did not follow them. The house was too destitute, there wasnโt even a garden. Ye Ming Yu and Mo Wen Xuan talked in the open space behind the house.
Ye Ming Yu said, โMo Wen Xuan, do you know anything about County Deputy Xueโs being in prison?โ
Mo Wen Xuan was shocked, then immediately waved his hands again and again with nervousness. He looked around and said, โBrotherโฆ.. You must not bring this up, you must not bring this up!โ
Truly a timid scholar afraid of getting into trouble, Ye Ming Yu thought disdainfully in his heart. He said, โWhat are you afraid of? Can you die if you mention it? Rest assured, with me here, I guarantee that you wonโt die.โ
Mo Wen Xuan probably did not anticipate meeting with such a person who could not keep his mouth shut. Even if he was extremely fearful and did his best to block, Ye Ming Yu remained unmoved. Each time he opened his mouth, he said โCounty Deputy Xueโ, as if afraid that others wouldnโt be able to hear him.
โI say, boy, County Deputy Xue is now in prison and will be sentenced in five days. He was charged with corrupting the disaster relief silver. Itโs impossible for you not to know what kind of person County Deputy Xue is, right? Boy, now we are working to reverse the verdict and need witnesses. Are you willing to stand up and be a witness, expose Feng Yu Tang, and help to redress the injustice of County Deputy Xue?โ
Mo Wen Xuan heard this and became even more frightened. He shook all over and said, โMust not, must not!โ
