Chapter 141: Mrs. Wang’s Regret
Upon hearing this, Zhao Zhitong and Qiao Muchen’s eyes instantly lit up.
Zhao Zhitong asked with stars in her eyes, "That’s fantastic! So, will Wicked Landlord Qin be punished?"
Looking at the little girl’s bright eyes, Pei Yuanqing laughed heartily, then said, "Your testimonies alone will not be enough to do anything to Landlord Qin."
At this, the two little ones immediately showed disappointed expressions. The next second, Zhao Zhitong clenched her little fist and said to Qiao Muchen with full enthusiasm, "Then let’s come back to gather evidence after school tomorrow!"
Qiao Muchen nodded in agreement. "Mm-hmm, we’ll be more careful tomorrow. When the farmers are having their meals, we’ll go ask questions then, so the servant won’t discover us."
Zhao Zhitong nodded. "Mm-hmm, Qiao Muchen, you’re amazing. When we get home today, let’s sort out today’s questions. We won’t ask the same ones again tomorrow, and it would be best if we could find out about new crimes he’s committed."
Watching the two little ones plotting as if nobody else was around, Pei Yuanqing couldn’t help but find it amusing how interesting these children were at such a young age. He then chuckled, "You two little ones are certainly full of energy, but from now on, don’t get involved in these matters anymore. It’s dangerous. The ’judge’ will investigate the case himself and will definitely find more evidence of Landlord Qin’s misdeeds. Then, Landlord Qin will be brought to justice."
Upon hearing this, the two little ones exchanged a glance, their eyes instantly filled with hope, and both were absolutely delighted.
Zhao Zhitong said in a sweet, childish voice, "Thank you, Uncle Pei, for helping us find the judge. You’re such a great person!"
Hearing the little girl’s praise, Pei Yuanqing laughed again. "HA, HA, HA! So now I’m a good person? What if I were a bad person?"
Zhao Zhitong shook her little head vigorously. "No way, no way! You’re not a bad person at all! You helped the people who are being bullied by Landlord Qin, so you must be a good person!"
Amidst Zhao Zhitong’s innocent words, laughter filled the carriage.
