But there's nothing we can do; some people are shameless and just love to challenge their own bottom line, so we can't blame Gu Sang.
The county magistrate was also Gu Sang's man. You could say that this little girl was a legend, the kind of person that people couldn't help but talk about.
What brings you here?
"My lord! I'm innocent! I'm innocent!"
Before Gu Sang could even speak, Zhang Shi began to wail, repeatedly proclaiming her innocence. Her cries were so heart-wrenching that they brought tears to one's eyes.
Gu Sang raised an eyebrow slightly.
Zhang is really something else. Would the county magistrate really want to listen to you wailing here?
Sure enough, the next second the county magistrate slammed his fist on the table!
"Awesome!"
Zhang's crying stopped abruptly, and she didn't dare to move an inch.
The county magistrate snorted, then asked, "What exactly is going on?"
Originally, the county magistrate didn't know what was going on, so he was quite surprised to hear it now.
Could there be some other reason behind this?
However, Zhang started crying and sobbing as soon as she opened her mouth, which was really annoying, so the magistrate looked at the yamen runners.
"You tell me."
The constable nodded upon hearing this, and then told the magistrate everything he knew, without embellishing anything.
It must be said that although the yamen runner also had feelings for Gu Sang, he still had his own bottom line in this matter and would never cross it.
That's something that truly deserves a thumbs up.
To be honest, if this yamen runner had been biased towards her, Gu Sang wouldn't have acted this way. But this yamen runner clearly wasn't, and it was precisely because he wasn't that she was so highly regarded.
That's just how people are; there's nothing you can do about it.
Moreover, the constable's words, while not favoring anyone, made people even more mindful.
Even if it were Zhang Shi, at this moment, if she wanted to find fault, wouldn't she be unable to find even the slightest fault?
When the constable saw the admiring look in Gu Sang's eyes, he was first taken aback, and then he couldn't help but blink. Why was he so unusually happy?
This decision was truly astonishing.
At this point, Zhang was completely speechless, because what the other person said was indeed the truth.
But Zhang was unwilling to accept this. When people are unwilling, they will do many things, such as speaking without thinking.
So Zhang was really out of options at this point, and her eyes were filled with malice as she looked at Gu Sang.
"You're all in cahoots! You little bastard, did you sleep with her? Otherwise, why would she help you?!"
"You shameless little bastard! If I had known you were like this, I would have strangled you the moment I saw you born!"
Then, Zhang began a series of insults.
Looking at her like that, anyone who didn't know better would think that Gu Sang had really done something.
But isn't that true in reality?
In fact, Zhang did this simply because Gu Sang did not do things according to her wishes.
It's actually quite laughable that Zhang Shi would hold a grudge against Gu Sang over such a trivial matter.
And he even started swearing!
Everyone was stunned, probably because no one expected Zhang Shi to do this.
Especially the constable, who hadn't understood what was going on at first, was almost furious when he finally realized what was happening!
"Don't talk nonsense again!"
This old woman is just looking for trouble. She and the owner of the pickled fish restaurant have a perfectly innocent relationship. Why should she be insulted like this?
This situation is so real that just thinking about it fills one's heart with resentment!
This is absolutely infuriating!
Gu Sang's expression darkened instantly, and when she saw Zhang Shi, her eyes even held an uncontrollable murderous intent.
Murderous intent.
Zhang was still cursing loudly, but when she sensed the murderous intent in Gu Sang's eyes, she was so frightened that she quickly took a step back and dared not look at them.
Only now did Zhang realize how excessive her words had been!
But what can you do now that you've already said it? You can only endure it!
Even if she couldn't bear it, there was nothing she could do. Things had already turned out this way, and although she didn't want it to, there was absolutely no way to undo it.
At this moment, Gu Sang looked at the magistrate, then knelt down and kowtowed deeply to him.
"My lord, this man has been slandering me! Please, my lord, do justice for me!"
How old is she?
If a girl in her early teens is insulted like this, then if Gu Sang doesn't regain her dignity, won't she be bullied to death?
You know, Gu Sang has eaten everything in her life, but she never suffers a loss!
The magistrate frowned at this moment, and even took a deep breath after hearing these words before looking at Zhang.
"Your words are baseless, yet you dare to openly insult others. Do you know your sin?"
"My lord...my lord..."
Zhang was so frightened that she didn't know what to say. At this moment, she could only stand there dumbfounded, not knowing how to refute him.
Just then, reinforcements arrived.
"Master!"
Gu Dekang and his two sons, Gu Yingfu and Gu Yinggui, also rushed over in a hurry.
To be honest, when Gu Sang saw this big family, she couldn't help but chuckle.
At this moment, Gu Dekang looked at Gu Sang, his eyes filled with all sorts of thoughts.
Gu Sang simply shrugged slightly.
"My lord, what mistake has Zhang committed?"
Actually, the two Suns had told them about Zhang's matter on the way here, and they were well aware of it. However, there was nothing they could do about it. They didn't want to admit it, so they could only pretend to be confused at this time!
If we don't play dumb, then there really is no other way.
When Gu Sang heard this, she looked at Gu Dekang with a hint of amusement.
Is this how things have to be now?
However, Gu Sang didn't really care about any of this. No matter what happened, the government would handle it according to its own plan, so Gu Sang wasn't worried.
And now, they are the ones who are worried about all of this.
After all, Gu Sang didn't believe that Gu Dekang and the others had no idea what was going on.
Now that they want to play dumb, let them play dumb.
Anyway, it doesn't really concern me much.
