Chapter 96 Is the Emperor Wrong?

"Someone come! Someone's dead!"

Sun Liuniang was shouting on the side, and she saw with her own eyes that Goudan's mother struggled violently and then could not struggle anymore. When Sun Liuniang looked at Widow He again, her eyes changed: This is a lunatic.

The workshop was not far away. When Sun Liuniang shouted, everyone rushed over. Shi Lizheng's eldest daughter-in-law, Tian, ​​saw this and took the lead to step forward and pull He Da Niang away: "He Da Niang, someone is going to die!"

A woman pulled Goudan's mother up and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that her eyes were still moving.

"Widow He, Goudan's mother is the daughter-in-law of the Huang family. It's not your turn as an outsider to teach her a lesson." The woman pointed at Aunt He's nose and cursed.

"That's right, Third Aunt, she is a lunatic and a fool, just like her daughter. Her son was clearly killed by the Xiao family, but the Xiao family gave her a little bit of help, and she is almost worshipping the Xiao family."

Goudan's mother wiped the mud off her face and the water that had choked her mouth. With Third Aunt standing beside her, Goudan's mother felt more confident. She said quickly, "All the men in the Xiao family had their property confiscated and exiled. The Xiao family are criminals. Why do they have the right to be so high and mighty? Why won't they let me work in the workshop?"

"What?"

"Confiscation of property and exile?"

Whether it was the Tian family or the Fu'an villagers who were watching the excitement, everyone's eyes were all looking towards the Xiao family's old house. Goudan's mother rolled her eyes and continued, "Widow He, you are here for the men of the Xiao family, right?"

Widow He, who had just been persuaded not to argue with the madman, couldn't help but rush forward again after hearing this: "What does it have to do with a woman if something happens to a man? Miss Xiao didn't do anything wrong? I'll let you talk nonsense!"

Widow He had been a widow for all these years, relying on her fierceness and recklessness. She rushed forward, grabbed her wet hair, and pulled her mouth with one hand: "Let me wash your mouth!"

"Aunt San, help!" Goudan's mother was usually very noisy, but when she met someone as desperate as Widow He, she was so scared that her face turned pale. She hid behind Aunt San Huang, but it was too late!

"Ah..." Goudan's mother was pulled by her hair again. The feeling of being pushed into the water and near death just now made her even more frightened. Her hands were groping around on the ground. When she touched a stone, she didn't even think about it and directly hit He Guadan's head.

The blood on Widow He's head gushed out directly.

"You damn widow, I'll die with you!" Goudan's mother took a stone and wanted to hit her, but her hand was suddenly kicked away.

"Auntie He, are you okay?" When Xiao Jiuyue arrived, she didn't even bother to speak. She pressed her handkerchief against Auntie He's bleeding head and turned around to say, "Quick, go get a doctor!"

"Okay." Lianxin was shocked and immediately went back to find the doctor.

Goudan's mother came to her senses at this time. Looking at the blood-stained stone in her hand, she threw it away anxiously. She raised her eyes and saw that everyone was looking at her with strange eyes.

"You'd better pray that Aunt He is okay!" Xiao Jiuyue looked at Goudan's mother coldly. Ever since she knew that Aunt He sold her eldest daughter to a butcher for money, she has had a bad impression of Goudan's mother!

A butcher whose three wives had died was a hellish pit, but Goudan's mother didn't even blink an eye and only treated her daughter as a tool to exchange for a betrothal gift.

"Yes, she was the one who wanted to kill me first."

Facing Xiao Jiuyue's cold gaze, Goudan's mother's voice sounded guilty, but suddenly, her eyes changed. Looking at Xiao Jiuyue's flower-like appearance, she said, "Miss Xiao, I heard that all the men in your Xiao family were confiscated and exiled? Then your Xiao family is criminals!"

Goudan's mother wiped the water off her face and stared at Xiao Jiuyue's face, extremely excited. What a bullshit young lady, isn't she just the daughter of a criminal?

"Mother." Huang Chunxi heard the noise and rushed over. She happened to hear her mother say this. She apologized repeatedly, "I'm sorry, Miss Xiao, my mother..."

"Pa." Goudan's mother raised her hand and slapped Huang Chunxi, cursing at her: "You stupid girl, it's not your turn to speak here."

"Humph." Goudan's mother looked at the tearful Huang Chunxi and said with disdain, "Cry, cry, cry, you just know how to cry. I'm not dead yet."

"Miss Xiao, I'm telling the truth. The men of the Xiao family were confiscated and exiled. You can't deal with me just because I told the truth, right? What's the difference between you and the domineering Madam Gan?"

"Only a fool like Widow He, whose son was killed by the Xiao family, would still smile at her enemies!" Goudan's mother said in one breath. For a moment, the crowd who had just been whispering and watching became as quiet as chickens, and everyone's eyes turned to Xiao Jiuyue.

Tian saw that something was wrong and she said, "Don't talk nonsense."

"Miss Xiao knows best whether I am talking nonsense or not." Goudan's mother raised her eyes and saw Xiao Jiuyue standing there calmly, covering He Guad's bleeding head. Although he looked embarrassed, he gave Goudan's mother a feeling of superiority. Goudan's mother shrank back, thought of something, and straightened her back again.

"Nonsense." Widow He didn't care about her own injuries and started arguing with Goudan's mother. Xiao Jiuyue said, "Aunt He, think about your son and daughter. Do you want them to be without a mother?"

Widow He didn't dare to move for a moment.

"Miss, I brought some medicine. Yu Ge went to the county to ask for a doctor." Mother Yu came over with a medicine box. Seeing the blood on Xiao Jiuyue's hand, she quickly took over the care of Widow He.

Xiao Jiuyue let go, and her fair hands were stained with blood. She was wearing a white dress today, and the bloodstains on her dress looked like red plum blossoms. Her eyes swept across the crowd of onlookers, and finally fell on Goudan's mother.

"You, you are the daughter of a criminal, you..." Goudan's mother said halfway through her words when she fell to the ground in fear, covering her face and screaming, "Help!"

Xiao Jiuyue stood where he was, his eardrums almost shattered.

"Miss Xiao didn't even touch your clothes." Tian's mouth twitched. She looked at Goudan's mother, and then at Xiao Jiuyue. How would this end?

Goudan's mother then looked up and saw Xiao Jiuyue standing in front of her, looking down at her. Suddenly, a blood-stained handkerchief was thrown at her. Goudan's mother shrank back desperately and almost fell into the ditch.

"You're right, my father was confiscated and exiled." Xiao Jiuyue's voice was clear and crisp. The moment she admitted it, Goudan's mother excitedly shouted, "Am I right? She is the daughter of a criminal. She can't live in the village!"

The villagers looked at Xiao Jiuyue in shock. Was this really the case of his property being confiscated and he being exiled?

"The current emperor has pardoned the crimes of the women of the Xiao family, or do you think the emperor is wrong and should be convicted?" Xiao Jiuyue's voice was cold, and Goudan's mother was panicked when he was waving the emperor's banner.
