Wanjin Lady

Chapter 236: Bundling Pigs
After a while, Wei Zheng's low voice came over, "Junior Sister Wen, there's no need to belittle yourself. I, Wei Zheng, don't look at family background or status when making friends. I only seek people who share similar interests and aspirations. What's more, you are the teacher's adopted daughter. Our relationship... cannot be severed no matter what. Junior Sister Wen, you're afraid that people will accuse you of clinging to the powerful, but you should think about it. My power... is not something that everyone can cling to."

Wen Wan's mind moved.

Suddenly I feel that...her figures are as handsome as ever.

Wen Wan smiled, without commenting, and simply pointed to the room at the corner at the end of the second floor of the cabin, "My Lord, we're here."

The two men walked in, closed the doors and windows, and waited patiently by the door.

"It's windy today. Madam Yi can't just stay on the third-floor deck and enjoy the breeze. She has to go downstairs to check around. As long as she goes downstairs, she will pass by this room." Wen Wan leaned against the door. "When the Marquis heard the noise, he called me. I'll distract Madam Yi. You arrest He San first and then Madam Yi."

Wei Zheng saw that the young lady arranged everything in an orderly manner. Although she was small and fragile, she had the demeanor of a general when the time came. He couldn't help but laugh, "I will follow Junior Sister Wen's arrangements."

Sure enough, within a moment, I heard footsteps coming from the corner.

Wei Zheng whispered, "Here it comes."

Wen Wan was the first to open the door and stand outside the passage on the river side, waiting for Mother Yi and He San to come down the stairs one after another. Wen Wan made sure that He San walked through the door, and then saw Wei Zheng rush out from behind He San with quick eyes and hands, grab He San and drag him into the room. The whole process was smooth and neat, and he looked like he was familiar with doing this kind of evil thing many times.

Mama Yi noticed something strange behind her, and was suddenly surrounded by a handsome young man. "Is that Mama Yi? I'm glad to see you. I've been waiting for you for so long!"

Mother Yi looked Wen Wan up and down, but she didn't recognize the person in front of her. "Forgive my poor eyesight, sir, you are..."

"Oh, you don't recognize me? I came here several times last month!"

Wen Wan opened her folding fan and said with a smile, "I've thought carefully about what Mother Yi said last time, but I don't know if Mother will keep her word."

"What's this...? Oh, I'm sorry, I'm getting old and confused... I really can't remember which family you are from, and what are you talking about?"

The young master's face darkened slightly, and he was obviously annoyed. "Mother Yi is really forgetful. Last month, I fell in love with a girl named Wang from your place, and you said you wanted a hundred taels of silver to redeem her. Today, I brought the silver, and you turned your back on it?"

"Oh, that's right..." Mother Yi saw that what she said was a foregone conclusion. Her brain raced, and she couldn't remember when she had seen this person before her. "Miss Wang? Which Miss Wang? Please explain it more clearly, young master—"

Wen Wan was stunned.

Wang, Zhang, and Li are all well-known surnames. Wen Wan picked one at random, thinking that with so many girls on the dock, there must be one with the surname Wang. Unexpectedly, Madam Yi across from her looked confused, so she simply frowned and said, "Of course it's Miss Wang! The one with a good figure and who talks like a lark! Could it be that you have another Miss Wang here?"

"Oh...oh..." Mother Yi didn't understand what was going on, but nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. "I remember now, Miss Wang..."

Wen Wan grabbed Mother Yi's hand and pulled her into the house. "Mother Yi, it's windy outside. Let's go inside and talk."

As soon as Mother Yi entered the house, Wei Zheng, who was waiting by the side, knocked her out with his scabbard.

Seeing that Yi Mama's huge body was about to fall to the ground, Wen Wan quickly supported her, then looked at the culprit with a complaining look, "My Lord, be gentle. Be careful not to beat her to death!"

Wei Zheng raised his eyebrows innocently, "I think these two people have no objection."

Wen Wan: Yes, yes, yes, I didn’t hear the deceased have any objections.

Wen Wan dragged Mother Yi's body towards He San. Wei Zheng curled his lips slightly, "Junior Sister Wen... is very familiar with these murders and arson."

I'm afraid he steals a lot on a daily basis.

That's true. According to Meng Yuanjie, when his junior sister Wen was being chased by bandits, she was six months pregnant and about to give birth, yet she still managed to kill one of the bandits with remarkable skill. This shows that his junior sister Wen... was definitely not a delicate flower bud in a greenhouse.

Who would have thought that this agile woman in front of me... should be lying in bed to recuperate after giving birth!

What a brave mother.

At this moment, Wei Zheng actually felt a sense of appreciation for her talent: How great it would be if Junior Sister Wen joined the army.

Wen Wan heard Wei Zheng's teasing, but she didn't get angry. She just smiled and said, "It's nothing special, it's just that I'm skilled."

Wen Wan dragged the Yi mother to He San's side, and then began to look for a rope everywhere. She couldn't find any, and was hesitating whether to go behind the screen to take down the bra strap to tie up the two of them. She was also worried that Wei Zheng would think she was frivolous, but Wei Zheng had already raised his sword and chopped at the curtain. There was a "rustling" sound of cloth being torn. Wen Wan walked over with her skirt lifted up, and saw Wei Zheng tearing the curtain cloth into long strips.

Wen Wan hurried over, squatted down, grabbed the long strip on the ground and was about to tie up Yi Mama. Wei Zheng saw her tie Yi Mama's hands behind her back and tie a bow on her wrists with a piece of cloth.

Wei Zheng: “…”

Wen Wan scratched her head and looked up to ask him, "Something seems to be wrong?"

She leaned over to see what Wei Zheng was doing.

"This is called a five-flower knot. It's also what people often call a five-flowered binding." The man's voice was husky. Moonlight slanted through the window, condensing into a silver glow on his fingertips. "First, tie the arms, then tie a knot. Wrap the rope around them twice. Pass the other hand through and tie a knot. Bind the neck, leaving some room. Spread the rope on both sides, wrap it around the hands three times, and tie a knot at the abdomen. This way, the person being tied won't be able to break free and escape easily."

"I've seen it." Wen Wan stared at it and studied it for a while, then said with certainty, "That's how they tied the New Year pig in the countryside in the past."

Wei Zheng paused.

He always felt that this young lady was teasing him sometimes.

He thought he could see through people's faces, but he couldn't see through the person in front of him.

"Whether it's tying up a person or a pig, the principle is the same." Wei Zheng tied up the two people and signaled Wen Wan to light the lamp.

Soon, the room became brighter. Wen Wan came over holding an oil lamp and squatted beside Wei Zheng. "Should we wake these two up?"

Wei Zheng pressed down on the midpoint of the radial side of the second metacarpal bone on the back of Yi's mother's hand. As he pressed down, he taught Wen Wan, "This is called the Hangu point. The pain is very intense."

Wenwan nodded and studied seriously.

The black-eyed junior sister is really smart and studious.

Apparently, this trick was quite effective. As soon as Wei Zheng pressed the Hangu acupoint on Mother Yi, Mother Yi sat up in shock from her dying illness. Just as she was about to scream, she was suddenly slapped in the face by Wen Wan.

Wei Zheng glanced at the young lady out of the corner of his eye.

The young lady threatened Yi Mama with a stern face, "Don't scream! If you scream again, I'll throw you into the river to feed the fish!"

Did no one notice that the night before and yesterday were both in the middle of the night?
