Chapter 68: Women's Immoral Words

Patriarch Gu saw Jiang crying with tears and snot, frowned his gray eyebrows, put down his great-grandson in his arms, touched his head, and signaled him to go back to the house.

The child ran back to the house.

Patriarch Gu's cloudy eyes were very wise. He stared at Jiang and asked: "How did the young lady of the Gu family and Liu Guixiang cripple Song Dalang's legs? Why did they attack Song Dalang for no reason?"

Jiang made up a lie: "My niece was engaged to Gu Huaizhi, but because Su Wan's character was bad, the royal family wanted to cancel the engagement. The Marquis's Mansion had no choice but to marry my niece to the prince and let Su Wan marry Gu Huaizhi instead of my niece. Su Wan was upset, and Liu Guixiang also resented my niece for not keeping her integrity. The two of them couldn't take revenge on my niece, and because they had a grudge with me, they attacked my Dalang!"

She hated the Gu family to death. Song Dalang almost became an official, and she was the official's old lady. Now she has become a useless person, unable to make money, paralyzed in bed, and needs people to serve him!

Although the head of the Gu clan is old, he is not confused.

Su Wan has been married for more than a month, and she has not done anything harmful to the village. At most, she has been bad to the Gu family. But no one can accept that a rich lady marries a farmer.

Moreover, Su Wan has changed completely in recent days and is dedicated to living a good life. It is the Song family that is restless and makes trouble for the Gu family everywhere.

The head of the Gu clan said slowly: "Empty words are not enough. Can you show evidence to prove that it was the young lady of the Gu family who crippled Song Dalang?"

Jiang choked. Where can she get evidence?

Song Dalang is still unconscious.

Yesterday he went to clean up what happened to Su Wan. There is no doubt that Su Wan did it!

"Gu clan leader, I am the wife of the village leader, how can I slander someone with such open mouth? Someone pointed out that it was Su Wan. If you don't believe me, go and interrogate Su Wan. I will send someone to find witnesses!" Jiang thought of the people hired by Song Dalang. She could bribe them with money and accuse Su Wan and Liu Guixiang of crippling Song Dalang!

Gu clan leader's wrinkled face was stern: "If you slandered the young lady of the Gu family, you will be punished for your immoral words, and you will be whipped fifty times and forced to kneel in the ancestral hall."

Jiang's face changed, but she could not retreat at this point. She was determined and gritted her teeth. She stood up and took Gu clan leader back to the Gu family.

——

Su Wan came out after putting on her clothes. Jiang had already left, and Gu's mother came in with a shovel.

"Wanwan, did I bother you?" Mother Gu threw the shovel into the corner and walked towards Su Wan with a kind smile on her face: "It's still early now, go to sleep for a while, I'll make breakfast and wake you up."

"I slept well." Su Wan frowned and looked at the empty courtyard gate, "Jiang came to the door, what happened?"

When Jiang was mentioned, Mother Gu got angry, she spat: "Who knows what she is crazy about, coming to the door early in the morning to bite someone! Song Dalang's leg was broken last night, what does it have to do with us? She thinks we are easy to bully and puts the shit pot on our heads!"

Su Wan's mind flashed through a thought, and asked: "Did anyone sell land in our village yesterday?"

Mother Gu was puzzled: "No. What's the matter? Do you want to buy land?"

Su Wan shook her head, why did Hu lie to her? Stop her from going to town, and even let her return to the village as soon as possible?

She thought of what happened to Song Dalang last night, and Jiang insisted that she was the murderer, and an idea gradually took shape in her mind.

Song Dalang was going to attack her, and this plan was known to Hu. Hu came to inform her specially, hoping that she could escape this disaster. She did not take Hu's words to heart, and did not meet Song Dalang along the way. Song Dalang's legs were crippled instead.

Who did this?

Qi Guang?

At this time, Jiang and Clan Leader Gu hurried over, and there were many neighbors who followed behind to watch the excitement.

Jiang's eyes were sharp, and she said in a cold voice: "Su Wan, Liu Guixiang, I invited the clan leader here, you can't deny it!"
