Chapter 1110 The Phoenix Hairpin 28
Mrs. Wang hurried off to do her work.
Tang Wan was afraid that Lu's mother was overthinking things, so she sat down beside her and talked to her, hoping to distract her from her thoughts and stop her from worrying about such trivial matters.
Lu's mother knew Tang Wan's good intentions, and since the two of them were waiting for Lu You, they chatted casually there.
Lu You did not return until it was dark, and Lu's mother had no appetite to eat.
Seeing her like this, Tang Wan felt a little reluctant to part with her, so she quickly made a bowl of noodles with chicken soup and brought it over to comfort Lu's mother so she could eat it.
Lu's mother originally had no appetite, but since the noodles were made by Tang Wanqing, and her daughter-in-law had personally made them and brought them to her, it wouldn't be right for her not to eat them.
So, Lu's mother took it, intending to eat a few bites.
However, he couldn't resist the fact that Tang Wan's cooking was just too delicious.
She took just one bite and couldn't put down her chopsticks, continuing until she finished the entire bowl of noodles.
After finishing the bowl of noodles, she finally put down her chopsticks with a sense of relief.
At this time, news came that Lu You had returned.
Tang Wan hurriedly went to greet him. Seeing that Lu You's expression was indifferent, she figured that everything had been resolved.
"Wu Guan, how is the situation?"
At first, the county magistrate held a court hearing, and the old nun confessed everything before she had even been hit twice.
The constables went into the old nun's house again and found a lot more silver.
Upon careful counting, there were five or six hundred taels of silver. This was not something an old nun in seclusion should possess!
Wang Lunhai was also brought over; it's likely that they had already conspired beforehand.
He frankly admitted that he was very fond of women, and that the old nun had asked him for money in exchange for selling women.
He then gave them the silver.
The old nun's mouth was swollen from the beating, and she was whimpering with wide eyes, clearly very indignant, but there was nothing she could do about it.
This old nun was identified as the mastermind and was exiled.
As for that renowned nunnery, it was also ordered to close down.
As for Wang Lunhai, he was also acquitted.
Lu You didn't say anything, he just narrowed his eyes.
He was a scholar, but not a bookworm.
He spent his childhood in constant displacement to avoid the Jurchens, and his blood was not only filled with books.
On his way back, Lu You bribed some people.
I plan to deal with Wang Lunhai properly later; this matter won't end so easily.
Lu You explained it to the two of them carefully.
Hearing what Lu You said, Tang Wan lowered her head slightly.
Wang Lunhai!?
A cold smile played on her lips.
After hearing that evil people will be punished by evil people, Lu's mother finally looked a little relieved.
But in the blink of an eye, he learned that the person who coveted his wife was still at large, which naturally made him feel a little uncomfortable.
"Mother, it's alright, evil will be punished!"
Tang Wan spoke up to comfort her.
"Well, everything's alright now, you guys go get something to eat!"
Mother Lu hurriedly urged them to leave.
She was full, but the two of them were still hungry.
"okay!"
Lu You left with Tang Wan.
Not long after the two returned to the room, a maid brought them food.
