The young man was so angry that his face turned red. He covered his mouth and coughed violently. “You… get out!”

At this moment, a loud clang sounded in the house. The young man couldn’t care less about them and quickly ran in.

Then, his concerned voice sounded. “Grandmother, why are you out of bed?” Song Jingchen and Shen Yijia looked at each other and followed him in.

There was a bed pieced together from wooden planks in the room. Apart from that, there was only a chair lying on the side.

The young man helped the mute woman lie down again. He was very helpless against the impolite couple. “As you can see, my grandmother can’t answer your questions in this state.”

He didn’t need to think to know that these two people had the same goal as the person who came a few days ago.

Song Jingchen ignored him and looked at the old woman on the bed. “Old lady, can you hear me?”

The mute woman held the young man’s hand tightly and nodded.

Song Jingchen asked, “Did you go to the old prince, Lord Xia’s residence 18 years ago?”

The mute woman shook her head. Although she was trying her best to hide it, Song Jingchen still realized that her body was trembling.

Not only Song Jingchen, but even the young man noticed this change.

The young man was stunned for a moment. He and the mute woman were not really grandmother and grandson. Eight years ago, his hometown suffered a disaster. He escaped with his family. When he followed the other refugees to Cangtong Town, which was not far from the capital, he was the only one left in the family.

Apart from the refugees, there were often many people who became bandits because they couldn’t eat their fill.

At that time, he often saw corpses that had been killed and thrown into the wilderness on the way. He was penniless, so he secretly looked for anything valuable on those corpses. At the very least, he could take off the clothes of the dead and exchange them for some copper coins.

This was how he dug the mute woman out of the pile of dead people.

Seeing that the person was still alive, he originally didn’t want to care, but that person refused to let go of him and even gave him a lot of money.

He had no choice, and he couldn’t bear to see a life die in front of him. He could only bring her to the medical center.

In the end, it was only with the money that they could live in Xiangyang Village under Cangtong Town.

Although the two of them were not related by blood, he had long treated her as his biological grandmother after so many years.

Now, from what these people were saying, his grandmother was related to some prince’s residence?

However, his grandmother’s reaction was clearly fearful.

The young man stood in front of the mute woman. “My grandmother said no. You can leave now.”

Song Jingchen frowned. “Eighteen years ago, you entered the Lord Xia’s residence with four other embroiderers to be the special embroiderers for the princess consort. I thought that you were just making clothes for the princess consort, but you didn’t expect Lord Xia to want you to do something treasonous. Back then, it was too late for you to leave. You were there for ten years.”

He was not sure which of the five people was the one in front of him, so he could only use this method to trick her. The mute woman struggled to shrink into the bed.

“Ahhh.”

She couldn’t speak. She could only shake her head vigorously in denial.

What disgraceful thing was it that she had to be silenced? The young man was confused. Seeing his grandmother like this, he pushed Song Jingchen with red eyes. “You’ve got the wrong person. It’s not my grandmother.”

That was not the mute woman’s reaction. Shen Yijia grabbed his wrist first and did not control her strength. The young man cried out in pain.

The mute woman could not see and thought that they were hurting the young man. She took a few steps forward on her knees and kowtowed, shaking her head and nodding.

Shen Yijia was speechless.

She let go of the young man guiltily.

The young man quickly went to support the mute woman and comforted her.

“Grandmother, I’m fine. They didn’t hurt me.”

The mute woman searched his face in a panic and started crying.

She had already caused the death of her entire family. She could not implicate this innocent child too.

With this thought in mind, she suddenly pushed the young man away and turned around to hit the wall beside the bed.

“Grandmother!”

Shen Yijia was shocked and quickly stopped him. Song Jingchen attacked at the same time as her.

Song Jingchen sighed. “We’re not here to silence you.”

“That’s right. We’re here to ask you to be a witness.” Afraid that she would court death again, Shen Yijia did not dare to let go. She did not know if she should sympathize with this person or be angry. She puffed up her cheeks. “Do you know how many people your clothes have harmed?”

The mute woman froze and looked in the direction of the voice, but she clearly couldn’t see.

Seeing that she had calmed down, Shen Yijia and Song Jingchen let go of her. The young man helped her sit back down..
