Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Two constables forcefully ushered Ms. Zhang into the dismal confines of the death cell.
Despite her weariness, Ms. Zhang clung to the belief that her hard-earned store would remain secure. Her faith intensified as her brother, accompanied by a band of rescuers, appeared on the scene.
Chen Lin’er, having been acquitted, gazed through tear-filled eyes, finding solace within her heart. A newfound chapter awaited her.
Recollections of advice from Qin Zhenzhen echoed in her mind.
“Don’t belittle yourself for past mistakes. Your worth is not defined by your history with Wang Nian. Embrace self-respect, and others will follow suit.” “Only by holding yourself in high regard can you expect others to do the same.”

“Leave the misfortunes behind, embark on a fresh journey. Youth is on your side, and a promising future awaits.”
Chen Lin’er, San, and their companions returned to her dwelling.
Since Ms. Zhang’s incarceration, Chen Lin’er’s house had become a refuge. It surpassed Ms. Zhang’s residence in both space and allure.
Inside, Ms. Zhang’s children and their grandparents wept.
Ms. Zhang’s eldest son, absent from the house, had likely ventured into the mountains to spread the news.
The youngest son, aged ten, clung fearfully to his grandfather, trembling visibly. Witnessing his mother’s torment and subsequent confession haunted him. He had overheard the grim pronouncement of his mother’s impending decapitation within three days.
Though aware of his elder brother’s journey into the mountains to secure help, the young boy couldn’t shake the fear that, if help did not arrive, they would be left orphaned.
The prospect of a parentless existence was too dire for him to fathom.
Wang Nian’s father shot a hostile glare at Chen Lin’er. “What brings you here?
You’ve already taken my son’s life, and now you’re after my daughter-in-law? Wang Nian’s mother, even more irrational, grabbed a broom, poised to strike Chen Lin’er.
“You wretch! You lured my son and caused his death. Yet, you have the audacity to live in this world…’
Just as she raised the broom, Liu Dazhuang, who had accompanied Chen Lin’er, swiftly snatched it away.
Poxed Face Wang produced a document and recited the crimes of Wang Nian and Madam Zhang.
“Wang Nian and Ms. Zhang stand accused of grave offenses, with Ms. Zhang facing a death sentence. Since Wang Nian is already deceased and buried, there won’t be a public decapitation for her. Ms. Zhang is scheduled for execution in the market at noon in three days!”
“The residence and shop occupied by Chen Lin’er’s family will be returned immediately.”
“Please take stock of your belongings and vacate Chen Lin’er’s house with the children. ”
Wang Nian’s son and daughter erupted in louder sobs.
Wang Nian’s parents, in a state of grief, adamantly refused to leave, their cries mixing with bitter accusations.
“Everyone, bear witness! The former governor passed a clear judgment, and Chen Lin’er has confessed. Now she’s pointing fingers at my son and daughter-in-law!”
“It’s evident that this wretch, Chen Linter, must have seduced the new governor to manipulate the case…”
Overwhelmed by frustration, Chen Lin’er seized the broom from Liu Dazhuang’s grasp and swung it forcefully at Wang Nian’s parents.
“It’s the father’s negligence that led to this! If you hadn’t supported your son and daughter-in-law, my family wouldn’t have fallen victim to their actions.”
“Despite knowing that your son and daughter-in-law engaged in illicit activities with ill-gotten gains, you shamelessly basked in their false displays of filial piety!”
“With the truth laid bare for all to see, you still have the audacity to spew baseless accusations against the governor!”
“I’ll beat the two of you senseless! You’re nothing but disrespectful, old scoundrels!”
“I’ll beat you to the ground! It’s astonishing that our family ever considered you two as decent people…”
