Mrs. Quan Si’s gossip and family-style speech made Haitang feel uncomfortable and she was not at all. She and Mrs. Quan Si had no friendship with her to chat about the past, and not to mention that they are not suitable to say these words now. Mrs. Quan Si must have something important to say, and now these are just the foundation.

Sure enough, after recalling the past for a while, Mrs. Quan Si suddenly put away her smile and sighed: "You must think I am very artificial when I tell you this. Since I miss my country life so much, why don't I go back?"

"No...no." Haitang said in a low voice, but he didn't know what to say. He had to say too much, for fear that he would hit Mrs. Quan Si's thoughts and raise any topic, but he was not good at answering a single sentence.

Seeing Haitang so uneasy, Mrs. Quan Si finally got to the point and said seriously: "Haitang, I can understand what you are doing now. Who doesn't want to live some comforting days? Even if it's harder, being safe is a blessing. But have you ever thought that you can really be safe by avoiding the countryside?"

Haitang lowered her head and didn't speak.

Mrs. Quan Si continued: "Some places in the countryside, the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and the gangsters are everywhere. Is it really safe to go to such a strange world without any reason? Isn't it sow discord? Where is Xue Niang's husband from? What about you? Why are you alone?"

"Xue Niang's family is all good people." Haitang couldn't help but defend himself when he heard that Mrs. Quan seemed to insult Xue Niang.

"I didn't say that Xue Niang's family is not good, but this person always has times when he can't help himself." Mrs. Quan Si was a little helpless, paused for a moment and asked, "Think carefully, is anyone who treats you badly these days?"

Haitang bit her lips slightly, but she still didn't say anything. She didn't know what to say. She was a little singer who could come out of the cage like the royal palace and had hope for life. It was a great fortune for her. She didn't dare to think about it before, so she couldn't say that anyone was not good to her. But after she had experienced so much, she would no longer be naive for someone to treat her well for no reason.

Mrs. Quan Si shook her head gently and sighed again, "I had the same idea as you earlier, just wanting the family to be safe and sound, so at that time I left Yancheng with my family and wanted to avoid this chaos, but I didn't expect that it would be even more chaotic outside, and there were chaotic people and bandits everywhere. I had encountered a good village with fertile land and hardworking villagers and resting at sunrise and sunset, living a simple and happy life. But one day, hundreds of refugees came from where there were hundreds of refugees, and everyone was ragged and hungry. The village was robbed overnight, and the people in the village had nothing, and they became refugees. That tragic situation was almost the same as war. Yancheng was the Kyoto of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Even the emperor was like this, let alone other places. Don't be too naive. There is no paradise in this world."

When Mrs. Quan Si talked, Haitang kept lowering her head and waited for Mrs. Quan Si stopped. After a while, Haitang raised her head and said softly: "Thank you, Mrs. Fourth, for your concern, but Haitang is a miserable person. She is lonely and helpless all her life. Even if she is hard in the future, Haitang will accept her fate."

"Accepting one's fate..." Mrs. Quan Si chuckled, "As a woman, she always likes to sigh that her life is miserable. Many men in the world are also very ups and downs, but few men say that their life is miserable. Why? Because most men rely on themselves. People like us who cannot rely on men can only rely on themselves in everything. If they don't try to make a better life, don't blame yourself for your life. It's not me, if you want to rely on others to live, why not just find a honest and honest person to marry? It's better than relying on others."

Haitang knew that some things could not be argued with Mrs. Quan, so she fell silent again.

"Fourth Lady..." The little maid called out from outside the door.

Mrs. Quan Si frowned, and after the little maid came in, she asked, "What's the matter?"

The little maid was about to say it, but after looking at Haitang, she was a little taboo.

Mrs. Quan Si said lightly: "Haitang is not an outsider, just say anything if you have anything to do."

The little maid then replied tremblingly: "It was the nanny who asked me to find the fourth wife. She said that a lady named Gao wanted to see the fourth wife, but she refused to leave a famous post. She did not say which one was the high price. She only said that she had talked to the fourth wife at the tea shop not long ago and was waiting for you in the old place... In addition, the nanny also said that something seemed to have happened in the Zhongyi Hou Mansion. People from the Yancheng Mansion blocked the Hou Mansion, saying that they wanted to investigate the death of the fifth lady of Zhongyi Hou Mansion."

"Okay, I understand, go down." Mrs. Quan Si waved calmly.

The little maid slowly stepped down.

"Mrs. Fourth, what should I do now?" Haitang's face was a little pale, and the little maid was a little vague, but in connection, she could guess that the so-called Mrs. Gao must be Gao. Could it be as she expected? Mrs. Quan Si really encouraged Gao to do something. Now that the matter was revealed, the government was alarmed. What should I do?

"What's the matter?" Mrs. Quan Si didn't seem to understand.

Haitang said anxiously: "Fourth wife, the maid mentioned Mrs. Gao just now, is it the family of the second wife of Zhongyi Hou Mansion we met last time? She is waiting for you in the tea shop now, but I am afraid that the government has found something to investigate? What should I do? Mr. Zhu from Yancheng Mansion has always been very good at determining the case, but I am afraid..."

"What are you afraid of, or do you think they will find out?" Mrs. Quan Si smiled and suddenly realized, "It turns out that you want to leave in a hurry because you are afraid of this. You have really misunderstood."

Haitang saw that Mrs. Quan Si didn't speak. Those who didn't kill would directly admit the murder. Mrs. Quan Si would naturally not admit it easily, but she really didn't think that things were so coincidental. Gao's panic had already explained what it said.

Mrs. Quan Si slowly explained: "Last time, you were there, and you could hear every word clearly. Is there anything I said that violates the king's law?"

Haitang recalled carefully that day, Mrs. Quan Si really asked Mrs. Gao to find a way to persuade Miss Rong Wu's mother, You, and asked them to find a way to push the marriage. There was indeed nothing harming about anything else, but maybe she didn't hear some outrageous words, and maybe she didn't hear some of the words. Besides, maybe Gao misunderstood and did something without authorization.

He didn't want to participate in these anymore, Haitang hesitated for a moment and said, "Fourth wife, the maid said Gao is waiting for you, why don't you go and have a look first?"
