How could Song Yue not see that Manager Wu and the others were acting? They clearly knew the outcome, and Zi'er was most likely the one they pushed out to atone for the crime.

  But I guess this maidservant is also not free from blame and deserves to be put to death.

  Soon, the yamen runners behind them brought Zi'er's body to confront the thieves. They confessed one by one that it was Zi'er who asked them to do it.

  No other people were exposed.

  Song Yue understood that since they were capable of doing such a thing, they must be afraid of retaliation from the Wu family. Since the Wu family pushed Zi'er to take the blame, they naturally knew what to do.

  The crowd was already in an uproar, and today's incident was considered big news.

  "I really didn't expect that Zi'er is so brave that she would actually do such a thing?"

  "But she is truly devoted to her master and a loyal servant."

  "A loyal servant? Who would want a servant who is willing to hire someone to kill someone? Who knows, what if she gets upset one day and harms her master? We can't keep this evil-hearted person!"

  "It's a relief for her if she dies. She almost killed three people in Miss Song's courtyard! Uh, there was also a big insect!"

  Everyone was very surprised.

  In order to save the Wu family's reputation, Steward Wu said loudly, "Young lady, please tell me what compensation you want. This is because we, the Wu family, failed to discipline our servants and frightened the young lady!"

  Song Yue then spoke, "Are you frightened? Manager Wu just wants to brush it off with just three words? This is a murder for money."

  As soon as her voice came out.

  The whole place fell silent.

  yes.

  This matter was not successful. If it had been successful, Song Yue would not be here now.

  Everyone was suddenly horrified.

  They also chimed in, "That's right, how can you just say she was frightened? Miss Song almost died! We almost couldn't eat the delicious food Miss Song made anymore, we can't just let it go like this!"

  Manager Wu was suddenly sweating profusely, and he couldn't help but look at Lord Lu.

  Lord Lu didn't know that Song Yue was so brave. She was killed last night and saw Zi'er's body today, but she could still remain so calm.

  "Since Zi'er has committed suicide out of fear of punishment, the Wu family can only atone for her sins. The compensation she deserves must be substantial. Since Manager Wu has said he will make compensation, Miss Song can discuss any requests with him."

  Manager Wu immediately acted righteous and said with full energy: "That's right! Your Excellency is wise! Miss Song, just ask. We in the Wu family can do whatever we can to satisfy your request!"

  When the people heard this, they all felt that the Wu family had a good attitude and was generous enough.

  Manager Wu straightened his back.

  He had to do this job beautifully, and what kind of compensation could this little girl ask for?

  At most I'll pay you a dozen taels of silver and be done with it.
