Chapter 536 Killing someone
Tang Cheng then remembered Wu Ya who was standing beside him, and immediately ordered outside: "Someone come!"
At this time, the steward who was waiting outside the door hurried in, and Tang Cheng immediately said, "Go to the account office and withdraw another 300 taels of silver. In addition, I have a letter. Send someone to the county town and deliver it to the county magistrate."
Soon a servant brought paper and pen, and Tang Cheng wrote a letter to the magistrate in front of Jiang Youzhen, saying that the Tang family would no longer pursue the matter and would release Li Lin.
"And the divorce letter, I will never forget it!" After writing the letter, Tang Cheng said it himself without waiting for Jiang Youzhen to speak.
Jiang Youzhen watched him write the divorce papers, and then Wu Ya and he both signed and put their fingerprints on the papers.
Wu Ya held the divorce letter, which was not yet written, and burst into tears. Her hard days were about to end. She was saved, and she no longer had to go back to that dark and broken courtyard, and no longer be bullied by those people.
The manager brought another three hundred taels of silver notes and placed them in front of Wu Ya. Wu Ya was stunned, as she had never seen so much silver before.
She looked at Jiang Youzhen, not knowing whether she should accept it.
"Since it's Young Master Tang's intention, you should accept it! You've suffered a lot in the past two years, and this is considered compensation."
Jiang Youzhen knew that the past two years had been a nightmare for Wu Ya. How could this money make up for the physical and psychological torture of a young girl? But now only money could bring some comfort.
Wu Ya then took the tray, feeling very excited. There was hope in her eyes, and she looked at Jiang Youzhen with gratitude.
At this moment in her heart, Jiang Youzhen is her salvation.
"That's not right? Master Tang, did you forget something?" Jiang Youzhen asked with a sharp gaze, "Did you sign the indenture?"
She remembered what came from the Jiang family's eldest branch, that she had signed a contract to sell herself.
Wu Ya then remembered, "Yes! There is a contract to sell my body, and I put my fingerprints on it myself."
She was so happy about the divorce letter that she was dizzy. At that time, those people forced her to put her fingerprints on it. How could she forget it?
With only a divorce agreement and no indenture, she was still under the control of the Tang family.
Tang Cheng's smile froze, and then he coughed lightly and said, "Actually, it's like this. Mr. Jiang can be taken away, but you have to know that before we meet the Fourth Prince, our deal is not over yet. It's not that we don't trust Mr. Jiang, but our Tang family is in business, and we are more mercenary. When doing business, we are used to being cautious."
"So Master Tang doesn't trust me, Jiang?" Jiang Youzhen's face turned cold.
"This? Mr. Jiang, you are too kind." Although he said so, Tang Cheng's attitude revealed everything.
"In this case, if you are really worried, I will also write you a letter and give you a postcard. However, I can only introduce you to them after I pass the palace examination. Although I am familiar with several princes, you know that after the palace examination, perhaps what I say will carry more weight." Jiang Youzhen said after pondering for a while.
Upon hearing this, Tang Cheng looked as if he understood, and hurriedly ordered someone to go to Sun's house to get the indenture.
"What about the indentures of those servants? They said before that we could deal with them at our will." Jiang Youzhen reminded.
"Yes, yes! Bring them together."
Even after the Chinese New Year, the days in winter are always exceptionally short.
After this delay, it was already afternoon. Jiang Youzhen declined Tang Cheng's invitation to stay and set off back to Qinghe Village.
The wind was cold and snowflakes were falling from the sky again.
Jiang Youzhen lifted the curtain and looked at the four men chasing the carriage outside, then turned around and glanced at Wu Ya who was sitting opposite him.
"What are you going to do with it?"
Long ropes were tied around the necks of the four men, and their hands were also tied. They could only passively chase the carriage. If they ran too slowly, they would be dragged by the carriage.
Seeing how miserable they were, Wu Ya felt even more resentful.
At this moment, there were trees on both sides of the road, and the cruelty in Wu Ya's eyes made the four people shudder.
"Stop the car!" Wu Ya shouted.
Jiang Youzhen knocked on the car wall and said, "Stop!"
The carriage stopped quickly and Wu Ya jumped off. Jiang Youzhen thought about it and jumped off as well.
Those people were already exhausted, but when they saw Wu Ya and the others get off the carriage, they immediately knelt down and begged for mercy.
Although they didn't know who the young man following them was, they knew that the current situation was not good.
"Madam! Please let me go."
"Humph! Let you go? When I begged you to let me go, how did you treat me?"
When Wu Ya heard the word "Madam", she felt nauseous and wanted to vomit.
Wu Ya will always remember that she was sleeping soundly that night when this man broke into her house and, despite her pleading, took away her innocence.
From that night on, every night, it became her nightmare. Even when she had her period, those people would not let her go.
Wu Ya picked up a branch nearby and hit the man hard with it. The man had his hands tied and could only keep dodging.
Seeing Wu Ya fighting more and more frantically, the other men also began to feel frightened.
One of them saw that only Jiang Youzhen, a weak young man, was following them, and the driver was standing far away, so he became frightened.
Relying on his strong body, he rushed towards Jiang Youzhen, trying to knock her down in one fell swoop.
To her, Wu Ya was a weak woman and they were more numerous. After dealing with Jiang Youzhen and then the coachman, they could easily turn the defeat into victory.
However, how could Jiang Youzhen let such a person get close to her? She just moved her feet, performed Qinggong, and quickly floated away from the spot.
The man missed his target and the rope around his neck tightened, almost suffocating him.
Qing Lang had already come over with a sword raised. Although he knew that the young master was a martial arts expert, he still stood in front of Jiang Youzhen.
Wu Ya was startled by this sudden change. When she saw the sword in Qing Lang's hand, she immediately snatched it away.
He raised his sword and chopped at the man who was about to hit Jiang Youzhen. He chopped down with a lot of force, and the wound went directly from the right chest to the left side of the stomach.
Wu Ya remembered that this beast had bullied her the most cruelly, and she was still not satisfied, so she raised her sword and chopped randomly without any method.
Seeing this, Jiang Youzhen quickly moved away to avoid getting splashed with blood. Everyone else was terrified, even Qing Lang was stunned.
"Ah~ Murder! Murder!" Everyone else was terrified.
"Crazy, this woman is crazy, help!"
"Help!"
Cries for help came one after another, and the other three screamed in fear. Wu Ya was already bloodthirsty, and seeing that the man had fallen to the ground covered in blood, Wu Ya raised her long sword and rushed towards the three people.
Qing Lang came back to his senses and wanted to stop him, but he suddenly thought of something and turned to look at Jiang Youzhen.
Jiang Youzhen just watched coldly, with no intention of taking action, so he stood aside and said nothing.
I don’t know how long she chopped, Wu Ya only stopped when she was exhausted.
She collapsed to the ground, looking at the blood and corpses on the ground, and then she felt fear and terror.
