“She didn’t want anything to do with her daughter anymore.” The jailer continued.

“In the end, now that her daughter has become rich, she came back to seek the benefits! How can there be such a good thing in the world? Of course, her daughter wasn’t willing to agree.

“Apparently, they went to cause trouble a few times, but they didn’t get any benefits. They were jealous, so they came up with this idea. They decided to destroy the big watermelons that their daughter’s family grew. Those watermelons were seedless and sold very well in town. Some people in the county also specially went to buy them.

“They felt that they couldn’t get anything, but they didn’t want their daughter’s family to live too well either. They concluded that destroying some things made them feel better. I didn’t even do anything, and they were so scared that they confessed everything.”

The jailer said again.

“Especially that old lady’s granddaughter-in-law, she was the fastest to tell me everything. She said that everyone in the family is despicable. If I have to say who’s the most despicable, it’s that old lady. She willingly sold her daughter off for money.

“Now, she still thinks that a daughter should be filial to her and give her everything, even money.”

After a pause, the jailer continued, “That old woman’s daughter’s family is from here. They’re from Locust Village, not far from Liu Village. I’ve also asked around and matched the name list. There’s a person called Xue Dafu in Locust

Village. Many years ago, he married a person called Guixia who married out of Liuj Village -”

“Wait,” Fang Yiming finally put down the case file. “Locust Village? Xue Dafu?” Wasn’t his good friend’s father from this village?

“Yeap. Xue Dafu from Locust Village. I heard that his family’s life is getting better and better. They have a lot of rare things to sell and can make ice. The restaurant in our County has ice on hot days because we bought it from them.” The jailer said. “I heard from the register that the last time Lizheng from his village came, he said that because their family’s business was doing well, they needed to hire a lot of people. They hired people from their village, so other families get to live well too.”

“By the way,” the jailer continued, “Those unruly villagers also explained that the general who came yesterday was the attendant of a young master rescued by Xue Dafu’s family. That young master is now recuperating in Locust Village. He is living in Locust Village and taking care of that young master. He also said that the young master was called Shao Shuting… Sir, isn’t this the name of the southern general? I’ve heard of that name before…’

The jailer’s voice trembled at the end.

How did such an important person make their way here?

“This…” Fang Yiming muttered. “You don’t have to worry about anything else.

Since they’ve confessed, we’ll do as the general’s follower says.”

Although he was the official of the people of Xinyuan, it also depended on what kind of people they were. He had never tolerated such unruly people.

“Yes, sir.” The jailer quickly responded.

“Let’s go down.”

“Yes.”

Fang Yiming was still thinking about this even after the head of the prison had left.

The southern general was saved by that family?

The southern general is in Locust Village now? The southern general stood up for that family?

Did Xue Yan, who was not even studying in the academy, know that he was the southern general?

No, he had to give them a warning!
