Chapter 12: Things Happen for a Reason

Receiving Gu Changye's consent, Gu Junlan was relieved.

It's the head of a clan, so he shouldn't go back on his word.

"Patriarch Grandpa, before that, Jun Lan wants to ask, can the Great Jin Dynasty be falsely accused?"

Although she had already had an idea in her heart, Gu Junlan felt that it would be better to make sure of it again.

It just so happened that Gu Changye had taken the township exam when he was young, and he was successful, so he still knew a little about this aspect.

"If it is found out that it is indeed a false accusation, then the rumor-monger will be punished with a cane at least and will be imprisoned at worst."

After speaking, Gu Changye stroked his beard and looked at her with a puzzled face: "You little girl, why are you asking this?" ā€

"Cane sin, jail?" She muttered in her mouth, and turned her gaze to Mrs. Liu, who was standing aside, with an unknown light in her eyes.

"Y-What are you doing looking at me, little hoof?"

"False accusation, what do you think I am doing with you?"

Seeing that after she finished speaking, Mrs. Liu involuntarily took a step back, and Gu Junlan smiled at her, but the smile was icy and did not reach the bottom of her eyes.

"Patriarch Grandpa, Jun Lan beats people right, but there is a reason for it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Shishan on the side was unhappy, flicked his sleeves and snorted coldly: "Beating people is beating people, how can there be any reason?" ā€

Liu Shishan's appearance made Gu Junlan look unhappy.

"Liu Lichang, you can eat things indiscriminately, you can't talk nonsense about food, beware of being slapped in the face."

For people she doesn't like, Gu Junlan never bothers to give a good look.

And with the comparison of Gu Junlan's respectful attitude towards Gu Changye before, Liu Shishan was almost out of breath when she counterattacked with her arrogant look.

"Ahem, Gu girl, you continue."

I'm so old, and I've never seen such a faceless girl.

"It all started this morning."

Glancing at Gu Youtian, who was glaring at him with an angry face, Gu Junlan began to narrate what happened today.

"My mother fainted on the side of the road due to heat stroke, and both Dr. Wu and Aunt Liu can testify about this, but Liu Zhaodi added these trumped-up charges to my mother in front of everyone."

At this time, Gu Junlan raised her voice as if she was extremely angry, and called Old Lady Liu's name.

"Yes, I testify, my man came back and said that Haizhu girl was suffering from heat stroke, and let me go and see it!" Liu Zhang jumped out in time.

After she finished speaking, Gu Junlan took over again.

"Let me ask the uncles and aunts present, what should you do if someone throws such dirty water on your mother-in-law instead?"

When everyone heard her ask, they didn't squeak.

Regardless of men, women, and children, as long as the people present did not jump out of the cracks in the stones, they all had their own mothers.

It's a fun thing to put on someone else, but when it's your turn, it's a different feeling.

"Man Xi Niang, did you really say such a thing?"

Of course, the people who have a mother also include Gu Changye, and he also sank his face at this time.

"I—I'm just saying that, how can I take it seriously? Besides, a few words will not drop a piece of meat. ā€

Liu Zhaodi's face was weak, and her eyes began to flicker, but her mouth was still arguing with strong words.

"Humph! Do you old pious woman know how powerful it is to accumulate and destroy bones?! This is the patriarch's grandfather, if you change to a fool, such rumors will spread, how can my mother and I still have a way to live? You call murder and murder! ā€

Since they were facing each other head-on, Gu Junlan would not want to leave a little way back for the enemy at all.

But the premise of cutting the grass and eradicating the roots is to be knowledgeable and patted on the back.
