Chapter 1060 My Poor Daughter

She looked at Yan Kebao and said, “Young Master Yan, I’m sure you didn’t throw that hairpin away, did you?”

Yan Kebao’s expression changed when he heard that.

“Search him!” Xie Pinggang ordered.

Yan Kebao was just a scholar. How could he withstand these officials?

After a few seconds, they took out a hairpin from his pocket.

Seeing that, Pan Jiao was a little surprised. “Cousin? That’s mine…”

Brother Hanwen bought the hairpin, so it was not a surprise. However, Brother Hanwen had strung a pink pearl on it. It was not big, but she really liked it, but she had only worn it twice and then lost it. She did not dare to tell Brother Hanwen that…

“I picked it up by accident. I didn’t expect it to be Cousin’s.” Yan Kebao’s expression remained the same.

With that, he handed it to Pan Jiao.

Pan Jiao’s hands were shaking as she held the hairpin, looking very sad.

Xie Qiao took out a piece of talisman from her pocket, threw it into the air, chanted a few incantations, and threw it directly at the surface of the lake.

A moment later, Fu Hanwen’s ghoul was forcibly pulled up from the bottom of the lake, looking a bit innocent and embarrassed. After all, it was his first time being a ghoul, so he was still a bit flustered and confused.

Xie Qiao only tied him up and did not speak to him directly.

Instead, she asked Yan Kebao, “You once said that you had intimate relations with the Pan family’s young lady. Is that true?”

Pan Jiao’s face instantly turned red when she heard that and she said angrily, “It’s not true! Master, how can you say such nonsense!”

Xie Qiao was unmoved, but when Yan Kebao heard that, his heart began to panic.

He said this when he pushed Fu Hanwen. How did Mo Chusheng know?

Could it be that… she was nearby at that time and saw it?

It was impossible. He looked left and right at that time and there was no one nearby. Fu Hanwen fell into the water in a place that was even more remote than the tree they were at the beginning. They could not see him from the pavilion!

“Master, how can you ruin a young lady’s reputation? My cousin and I are innocent,” Yan Kebao said, pretending to be calm.

“Do the two of you like each other? In the future, when you’re done mourning, will you be husband and wife?” Xie Qiao continued to say.

Pan Jiao was so angry that she cried.

The other members of the Pan family did not look too good either. The Fu family did not know the reason.

“Master, why do you say that? Brother Hanwen and I a-are a couple! Brother Hanwen said that he would marry me… We also said that we would wait until spring next year for our parents to decide on our marriage. We are neighbors and are close to each other. Even if my parents do not want me to leave and let me stay at home for two more years, that would not be a problem…”

The two families were not considered poor, but they were not considered large families either. Their children had already intended to marry each other, so it would not be a problem for them to interact with each other.

“My poor daughter!” Pan Jiao’s mother cried as she held her daughter in her arms.

They had watched that child of the Fu family grow up. He was like half a son to them!

Now that he was suddenly gone…

How could she still have the heart to marry someone else for her daughter in the next two or three years? Even if they wanted their daughter to be happy and get married as soon as possible, they knew their daughter’s character. It would be difficult for them to put aside their past friendship in such a short time!

“Mother… I’m not going to marry Cousin… Master is talking nonsense… She’s talking nonsense…” Pan Jiao cried uncontrollably.

Xie Qiao also knew that she had gone too far, but there were some things that she had to clarify.

Xie Qiao looked at Fu Hanwen, who was floating not far away, and saw that he was a little moved.

His face was full of sorrow and pity.

“Young Lady Pan, is there anything wrong with Young Master Fu’s hand?” Xie Qiao continued to ask.
