"Fine, fine, so you won't admit it? It's true that I don't have evidence, but don't think you can just shirk your responsibility. Let me tell you, if I don't get what I want, none of you will get what you want either. We might as well all die together."
Now that things have come to this, Granny Zhao has no choice but to take a desperate gamble.
"Mom, what are you arguing about?" Zhao Dahua had been feeling unwell lately and had been listening to the commotion in the yard in a daze, so she pushed open the door and came out.
Granny Gu quickly covered her face with her large cloak, preventing Zhao Dahua from seeing her face clearly.
Old Mrs. Zhao didn't want her daughter to get involved, so she said, "Dahua, go back to your room first. This is none of your business. I'll make you lunch in a bit."
"Oh, then you guys can chat for a while, I'm a little hungry." Zhao Dahua didn't think much of it. She had indeed been feeling quite weak lately, so she went back to her room to lie down again. After all, she had suffered both physically and mentally.

"Actually, it's nothing. Just take it all on. At worst, it's an attempted abduction, and our young lady will mediate. You might only be locked up for a while. But don't worry, our young lady will definitely take good care of this house for you, and she'll keep her promises to you," Granny Gu tempted her.
"You mean Miss Zhao is willing to let Wu Yong take my daughter as a concubine?" Granny Zhao asked.
Granny Gu nodded. Granny Zhao gritted her teeth and said, "Alright, tell Miss not to worry. As long as she keeps her word, I'll take responsibility for this."
