As soon as this remark came out, there was a commotion. Even Mrs. Li stopped her scolding.

Heizi actually committed a crime. What did he do?

Forget about Mrs. Li’s arrogance and Yan’er who couldn’t disregard the discomfort in her heart—complaining about marrying Feng Heizi. Hearing Feng Heizi was said to have met with a mishap, the two of them couldn’t help feeling anxious.

What would happen to the child in Yan’er’s belly if something went wrong with Feng Heizi? Wouldn’t the child become a fatherless one?

Widow Feng saw that her opponent was shocked senseless. There was a flash of pride in her eyes, and she continued to wail, “My poor grandson, his father suffers from misfortune before he is even born. Now it is unknown whether his father is dead or alive… Oh, God, why don’t you open your eyes, why don’t bless us…”

The amount of information was too enormous. Some people couldn’t react at first, their gazes couldn’t help but turn toward Yan’er’s belly.

Mrs. Li was so angry that she wanted to beat Widow Feng out. She was afraid that Widow Feng would continue to say more. However, she also needed to find out what happened to the Heizi, so she had to drive away the people standing in front of the yard.

“Shoo, leave, leave! What are you all looking at!? There is nothing to watch!”

At the sight of Mrs. Li’s aggressive blow, the bystanders immediately dispersed in a fuss.

Though the viewers were all gone, things about Feng Family and Yao Family had spread out from the mouths of these people. There were a lot of discussions everywhere.

After Mrs. Li closed the door of the courtyard, she glared at Widow Feng, “If you don’t make it clear today, I won’t spare you.”

Widow Feng brushed the dust off her pants and got up from the ground, not afraid of Mrs. Li’s bluffing threat.

To tell the truth, she had thought about everything before she came. The Feng Family was poverty-stricken, so naturally, there was no silver to bail Feng Heizi out of prison. The Feng Family had no money, but the Yao Family did. Moreover, the Yao Family had people in the county government. So, when she found out that her son committed a crime, besides the initial shock and confusion, she didn’t panic at all.

Creating such a scene today, Widow Feng naturally had assessed the pros and cons of this matter. Even though it was humiliating, they had nothing to fear, as her family was in the position of the husband. Once things blew up, the Yao Family could only help her family, unless they wanted to let their pregnant daughter be criticized for a lifetime. As long as the Yao Family helped them, her son would not only be able to come back, there was also the addition of a daughter-in-law and grandson. She didn’t have to suffer from looking at this old shrew of the Yao Family anymore. Everything will be fine.

Widow Feng calculated very well.

Widow Feng told her what she knew. Listening to her, Mrs. Li’s face turned red and purple. She turned around and slapped Yan’er, “You dead girl, why do you always give me trouble! Why do you give me trouble all the time!”

Yan’er was beaten up to tears. Huiniang only stood aside and looked at her coldly, having no intention to dissuade.

“Anyhow, it’s really troublesome for your family. You don’t need to bother with other things, just take care of the child in Yan’er’s belly.” Widow Feng said with a smile.

What Widow Feng said practically hit Mrs. Li on the nail.

Mrs. Li glowered at Widow Feng then chased after Yan’er. It’s a pity that Widow Feng didn’t even give Yan’er a look in her eyes. After all, she was not her daughter. Yan’er could get mad at her however she liked.

Mrs. Li yelled at Huiniang, “Su Huiniang, why haven’t you gone to look for your husband and bring him home!?” Only by asking Yao Cheng could they know what’s going on at Yamen.

“Mother, Hong’er is crying. I’ll go and see him first.” Huiniang didn’t heed her words, she lifted the door curtain then headed to the east chamber. After entering, neither hide nor hair was seen.

Mrs. Li was so outraged and wanted Yan’er to go to find him, but given that her daughter was currently pregnant, she could only go by herself. As she was about to leave, Yao Cheng came back specifically for Feng Heizi’s matter.

The Widow Feng only knew that Feng Heizi had committed something because of money, but she didn’t know the details. She only heard that her son had been sent to prison.

Feng Heizi’s crime was a serious one. He worked together with a courtesan in Yihong Pavilion to rob a passing merchant. The prostitute first figured out the amount and whereabouts of the merchant’s silver, then Feng Heizi would take some accomplices to rob the merchant on the way.

It didn’t seem to be his first time doing such a thing. He was extremely ruthless and never kept his victims alive, resulting in his crimes having never been exposed. But this time, God may have opened his eyes. The merchant he robbed was hit by a stone on his head and thrown into the river, but unexpectedly didn’t die. He climbed up from the river and went to file a report to the officials, where the investigation eventually led to Feng Heizi’s involvement.

In the gambling house, the officials arrested him on the spot. None of his so-called brothers could escape either.

It was considered a felony to murder for personal property. The lightest sentence would be exiled three thousand li (1500km) away, and the heaviest would be a decapitation in public.

This wasn’t the first time that Feng Heizi committed a crime. He kept his mouth shut, but the courtesan couldn’t withstand the severe torture and forced questioning, ultimately confessing everything. From her confession, the official learned that Feng Heizi and his accomplices had killed at least three to four people, not to mention some that hadn’t been found out.

In other words, Feng Heizi was doomed this time.

After listening to Yao Cheng, Widow Feng collapsed on the ground, howling her heart out.

Widow Feng completely lost her previous composure. She had naively thought that her son merely hit someone or stole something from others. Never once did she expect that her son would be so audacious. Knowing that Feng Heizi also earned silver outside, it was either he took it for eating out and drinking, or he gambled it all away. He had never given a penny to his family. Widow Feng was so busy working outside to make money, she had no clue at all.

Not only was the Widow Feng, but Mrs. Li and Yan’er were also frightened.

It’s over. What should Yan’er do?

The eyes of the Yao Family members were all directed to Yan’er’s belly.

In the past, every time Mrs. Li and Yan’er brought up Yaoyao, they always said that she was shameless for getting pregnant before marriage, and Xiaobao was a wild child who didn’t have a father. This time, it was Yan’er’s turn to follow in Yaoniang’s footsteps. Karma surely catches up to you.
