Chapter 960 - 958: Dragging Us Into Trouble
Gu Zikai, being young, couldn’t help but say after hearing this: "No, we must report this to the authorities! We can’t let the lives of more than twenty people from the Huang family be lost in vain, leaving those depraved people living well!"
Turning his head as he spoke, he looked at Song Chongjin: "Brother Song, isn’t it just right that Governor Chen and Lord Zhu are both in our county now? Let’s jointly write a complaint and accuse that Graduate Loo and the Tian family! We must seek justice for the wrongly deceased Huang family members!"
Old Madam Ding was trembling as she knelt down after hearing Gu Zikai’s words: "Master, master, these are all things I’ve heard, none of it is certain! I’ve been talking nonsense, please pretend you didn’t hear, I won’t babble anymore!" She lifted her hand as if to slap herself.
Wang Yongzhu, quick-witted, grabbed Old Madam Ding’s hand: "Aunt Ding, what are you doing? Don’t worry, you’re just saying it, and we’re just hearing it like a story! Where would you hear a story and rush to report it without understanding the situation? It’s okay, you go rest first."
After a few kind words, Old Madam Ding wasn’t entirely convinced, but she was less scared. She bowed to Wang Yongzhu and staggered back to the house.
Wang Yongzhu was still uneasy and gave Old Granny Wu a look, signaling for her to keep an eye on things.
Old Granny Wu understood and quickly followed behind.
Here, Gu Zikai also suddenly realized his impetuousness, having scared Old Madam Ding, "I was out of line, and caused fright to your household, I’m truly sorry!"
Wang Yongzhu saw that Gu Zikai realized it too. Besides, if anyone heard such a thing, who wouldn’t be furious? Who wouldn’t feel disdain?
She shook her head and still reminded him: "What you said, Brother Gu, was no big deal here, but be careful not to slip outside. Firstly, this matter is significant and involves many people, if you’re not cautious, it might unwittingly cause trouble, and might even harm Xiao Wu and them."
