Previously, Gao Junru relied on the Xie family and was about to marry into an official family. Her three brothers and sister-in-law were willing to support her and respected her at home. But after the whole family was thrown into prison, everyone's mentality began to change.
Changes have occurred.
The environment in this prison is naturally not good. The Gao family, who are pampered and well-off, have never suffered such hardships. In particular, the daughters-in-law of the Gao family were frightened to death by the rats in the prison.
The government officials saw that the family had offended Su Yueling and it was the Empress who ordered them to be taken to prison, so they treated them extremely rudely, and the food they served had a faint rancid smell.
Even if the Gao family was hungry, they couldn't eat the food, and their faces turned green.
"Is this something for humans to eat? Even if we were given a few meat buns, they would be better than this stuff. We would feed them to the pigs and they wouldn't eat them." Dalang of the Gao family yelled angrily.
The yamen servant was not used to their bad habits and snorted coldly, "If you don't eat, you'll be hungry."
"You don't think this is pig food. You can't even eat pig food."
With that said, they immediately took away the meals.
When the Gao family saw this, they were all dumbfounded.
The yamen servant was still angry and said, "You are so brave. You stole the seeds and actually stole them on the princess. You know that according to our laws in Daxia, if someone steals a noble's property, the minimum punishment is to be beaten with a hundred sticks and then exiled for three thousand miles."
If you are not pardoned, you will be beheaded by the Empress of Autumn."
These people were on the verge of death, yet they dared to act wild in front of him, without any awareness of their situation. The yamen decided to tell them the truth and make them understand.
Except for Gao Junru, no one in the Gao family would read the Daxia Law. They had the Xie family as their backers, and they felt that they were different from other merchants. They never thought that they would be in jail one day. When they heard the words of the Yamen, they felt as if they were being frightened.
It was like five thunders striking the top, and everyone was stunned.
"Why, how could it be so serious? Isn't it just stealing some seeds?"
"Yes, this princess is too cruel. The worst we can do is compensate her with the money."
"It's all Jun Ru's fault. She came up with the idea. We were just confused for a moment and believed her words and thought it was not a big deal."
Whether it was exile or execution, the Gao family could not accept such a future. When they were on the verge of despair, they couldn't wait to escape, so they chose to put all the blame on Gao Junru.
Gao Junru's sister-in-law, Mrs. Chu, even said: "I have said before that doing business is a man's job, and only men can do it well. I shouldn't have let my little sister show up as a woman. You didn't listen to me before."
Advice. In such a big matter, a woman can never make up her mind, she will only add chaos. Now, she has directly pushed our whole family into a trap." When she said this, she did not think that she was the same.
woman.
Gao Junru was so angry that her lips were trembling. Her elder sister-in-law only had a good-looking face and was attracted by her elder brother. She wanted to get married even if she wanted to live and die. She didn't even have decent jewelry when she entered. Gao Junru felt pity for her natal family's poverty.
She bought a lot of money, but she was the first one to jump out and stab her.
Looking at the other people in the family, they all had expressions of approval.
Gao Junru's heart felt as if it had been thrown into ice water, and the coldness kept flowing out.
Gao's mother even said to Gao Junru: "Junru, we can't go on the road together as a whole family. After all, it was you who committed this matter, so you should take responsibility for it and don't implicate your brothers. If something happens to them
, how can you be worthy of our ancestors of the Gao family?"
Sacrificing Jun Ru's life should finally calm down the princess's anger.
Gao Junru's eyes suddenly turned red, "Mom, do you want me to die?"
Gao Mu avoided her hurt eyes and lowered her head, "You are no longer a child, you have to take responsibility."
"Dad, brother, do you think so too?"
Father Gao said: "I will listen to your mother."
Gao Junru's three brothers even said: "Little sister, what mother said is right."
At this time, several "upstanding" men in the Gao family consciously hid behind Gao's mother. Gao's mother's status in the family was unprecedentedly high.
Gao Junru wanted to cry, but found that the tears couldn't come out at all. It turned out that she had done so much for her family, but in the end she was still an outsider. Her teacher used to ask her to think more about herself and not to rip her heart out for her family members. She was still a little unconvinced at the time.
, I feel that my relatives are different from those families outside that favor boys over girls. She is in charge of the family business.
Did it turn out that the teacher had already seen this step?
Obviously when she proposed this idea, her parents and several brothers praised her for her intelligence. The third brother couldn't wait to contact the third sister-in-law and coaxed her with sweet words until she wanted to work for the Gao family. At that time.
On the surface, she treats her third sister-in-law affectionately, but in her heart she despises her, thinking she is stupid and easy to fool.
It wasn't until this moment that she realized that she was no better than her third sister-in-law, she was simply stupid.
Reluctance and anger spread in her heart, and her face turned gloomy, "I know."
Seeing her expression, the Gao family thought she had accepted her fate and couldn't help but feel relieved.
At this time, Father Gao thought of his daughter's goodness again, sighed and said, "Don't resent your parents. If there is any other way, we will not do this."
Gao Junru's voice was hoarse, "I don't blame you."
She only blamed herself for not knowing people well, for being too naive, and for being too wishful thinking.
Gaofu said: "One day, dad will definitely record your name in the genealogy, put your card in the ancestral hall, and enjoy the incense of the Gao family."
Which daughter can be treated like Jun Ru? This is considered to be the most benevolent and righteous thing on his part.
The yamen officials were very surprised to hear this from outside. This Gao family member was an eye-opener for them. The punishment has not yet been announced, and they have already made plans on how to send their daughter to die.
There is no bottom line, so it is no wonder that people commit theft.
In the evening, Xie Yunzi's maid brought them a lot of steamed buns. The maid carrying a food box said, "Miss Gao likes to eat shrimp. These shrimp steamed buns are specially made for her."
This maid also did not forget to stuff pieces of silver into the hands of the Yamen servant.
The master-disciple relationship between Gao Junru and Xie Yunzi cannot be faked, and it is completely normal for her to send someone to deliver a few buns.
After the yamen official took the money, he turned a blind eye to it.
The rest of the Gao family did not compete with Gao Junru for the shrimp buns, but instead ate other meat buns that were sent to them. After all, they would have more good food to eat after they were released from prison.
Gao Junru cried silently while eating shrimp buns. Her appearance made the Gao family afraid to look at her, and they all turned their backs.
In the middle of the meal, Gao Junru ate a note in the bun.
