Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“What did I do? I, Jia Meizi, do things openly and honorably. Don’t slander me.” Madam Hu had never seen such a shameless person. “You do things openly and honorably? Have you forgotten about Gu Dajiang’s wife and sister-in-law? Do you want me to tell you?”
Madam Jia’s expression changed, but the others’ curiosity was piqued. “Sister-in-law Hu, what’s wrong with Gu Dajiang’s wife? Isn’t she a fool?” “Tell us, what did Jia Meizi do?”
Jia Meizi panicked. She took two steps forward and wanted to shut Madam Hu’s mouth.
However, Madam Chang took a step forward and said, “My second sister-in-law has always done things with a clear conscience. Sister-in-law Hu, don’t spout nonsense here. You’re slandering my second sister-in-law and even bringing up my first sister-in-law. You have to give us these five taels of silver today. Otherwise, don’t even think about taking Bian Yuanzhi away.” “Huh? A clear conscience?” Madam Hu was so angry that she laughed. She pointed at Madam Jia and said, “She, Jia Meizi, has a vicious heart. Back then, she was the one who smashed Gu Dajiang’s wife by the river and pushed her into the water. I saw it with my own eyes. It was real. If not for that, would Gu Dajiang’s wife have become stupid?”
As soon as she said this, there was silence.
Everyone looked at Madam Jia and Madam Hu. Back then, didn’t Madam Yang fall into the river? Was she pushed down?
Madam Jia screamed and pounced forward. She immediately started fighting with Madam Hu. “You’re spouting feces and talking nonsense. I’ll tear your mouth apart for slandering me.”
She was ruthless, and Madam Hu was not to be outdone. She was much stronger than Madam Jia. After a while, she rode on her and slapped her a few times.
“I’m slandering you? I saw it with my own eyes. I even saw you took away the stone that hit her head and found a place to bury it. Do you want me to take everyone and dig out that stone for you to see?”
“I didn’t. You’re talking nonsense. I didn’t.”
The two of them fought more and more fiercely. Madam Zhao was so angry that she scolded, “What are you doing? How dare you hit someone at the entrance of my Gu family? Second Brother, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and pull her away. Third Sister-in-law, are you stupid? Why aren’t you helping?”
“Oh, oh.” Madam Chang went over, but she didn’t dare to get close. She tugged at them twice to show that she was trying.
Then, she saw Madam Hu wave a hand over and fall to the ground. Gu Dahu helped her back.
Gu Dahe wanted to help, but Father Ding was still there.
Gu Gang could not stand it anymore and shouted, “Enough, stop fighting.”
As he spoke, he pointed at the onlookers and said, “All of you, go up and separate them.”
Only then did the people from Gu village take action. One of them pulled Madam Hu, and another pulled Madam Jia.
Gu Gang snorted. “Gu Dajiang’s family is gone. What’s the use of saying this now? Gu Chuanzong, do you want to give Bian Yuanzhi to the Ding family or not? If you do, you can just accept one tael of silver. If you don’t, you can raise him yourself and give him betrothal gifts in the future.”
When Gu Chuanzong saw that things had come to this, he quickly nodded. “Yes, yes.”
Gu Gang looked at Father Ding again. “What about you guys?”
The Ding family could afford one tael of silver, but Madam Hu was unwilling. However, when she thought of Bian Mulan who came to look for her in the middle of the night, she could only nod. “Let’s give it to them. They’re like a group of beggars.”
After giving them the money, Ding Jincheng carried out Bian Yuanzhi, who had become numb and didn’t speak anymore.
Then, he said to the Gu family, “Let’s move his household register now..”
