Gu Chengyi only thought about getting rid of Wang Yueniang before, but he didn't expect that he would be poisoned.
The poisonous powder was found at Wang Yue's parents' house, and he had been taking it for more than a month. If it was the first time for the two of them to have sex, how did he get poisoned?
So no one believed what he said before. He was very grateful for the baby in Wang Yueniang's belly, but he really didn't want it.
However, if Wang Yueniang is not saved, then he will also be immersed in the pig cage.
"That was also Wang Yueniang's plan. If our Gu family was plotted, my nephew would have to join us in soaking the pig cage."
Uncle Gu also stood up. No one knew whether the two were related before, and there was no way to verify it. They only said that this was more than a month, and that was more than a month after Wang Yueniang poisoned him. Can he rely on Gu Chengyi?
"The baby in my belly is Gu Chengyi's. You Gu family are so heartless and don't care about your family's bloodline? Are you not afraid of the ridicule of the world? There is still a Juren in your family!"
Wang Yueniang didn't speak when she saw Gu Dad. Gu Chengyi made it clear that he refused to admit it. Even Gu Lizheng was evading it. She was afraid that the Gu family would only protect Gu Chengyi and not want to care about her at all. She didn't want to die yet. She still had a son. If she died,
Who will take care of Guoer?
"Gu Chengyi smeared our Yang family and caused the Yang family to lose such a big face. There is absolutely no way we will let them go. Not only do they want to soak the pig cage, but your Gu family also wants to compensate us."
When Patriarch Yang saw that Gu Lizheng didn't mention the money, he just told him directly.
He saw Gu Chengyu sitting aside without saying a word, and knew that Gu Chengyu didn't want to care about this matter. As long as Gu Chengyi's life was not harmed, other requests should be made.
Otherwise, how could they be so adamant if the Juren Master spoke?
Of course they don't want their lives, they just want to extort more money.
He thought about it for a long time and felt that the Yang family would be in great disgrace anyway. The arrests made by Yang Lao Er and Yang Lao Er were too big, and everyone in the village knew that they were also pig-minded.
Unless everything is soaked in the pig cage, he can save a little bit of reputation. But reputation is not as good as money. Originally, he could get some more benefits for the clan, but now it is good to only have money.
As for whether Wang Yueniang lives or dies, he doesn't care. It depends on who the Gu family wants to protect. If both of them protect them, he can get more money.
"What? You want money? Your Yang family has taken advantage of all the good things in the world? You want two people's lives, and you also want money. Do you think our Gu family is a soft persimmon?"
Uncle Gu is not afraid of confronting Patriarch Yang. Although the Yang family has many members, there are no promising nephews. The Gu family is on the rise. Patriarch Yang dares to offend their Gu family?
"Actually, for the sake of the Juren Master, it's not impossible to be lenient. It's just that our Yang family has lost such a big face. If you, the Gu family, want to protect Gu Chengyi, you must give some explanation to the Yang family. Otherwise, outsiders will definitely
I want to say that your Gu family is bullying others."
Father Gu glanced at Patriarch Yang, and he knew that he wanted money. The second brother had saved a lot over the years, so it was reasonable to pay him some money. Let this incident teach him a lesson, otherwise, he would not be able to control him in the future.
.
As for the baby in Wang Yueniang's belly, he hasn't thought about it yet.
Uncle Gu also knows that if some blood is not shed today, it will definitely not work. If this is reported to the government, Gu Chengyi and the others will be slapped with a slap in the face, and the compensation will not be small. The Gu family will also lose face.
Everyone knows.
"Then Chief Yang, please tell me! We will see if it is feasible. However, if the Yang family goes too far, we will not agree. At worst, we will report it to the government. My nephew has been plotted, and the county magistrate is Qingtian.
Master, if you have no choice but to return our Gu family’s innocence.”
Patriarch Yang pondered for a while and showed three fingers with his hand. This was what they had discussed before.
Gu Chengyu frowned, this shouldn't be three hundred taels, but probably three thousand taels. The Yang family really seized the opportunity and wanted to take a bite.
Uncle Gu looked at it and said, "Three hundred taels?"
He didn't dare to think too big. In his family, Xiaobao found a small business, making blood sausages and sausages at home, so he made some money. However, it was only more than a hundred taels a year, and three hundred taels was already a lot.
Changqing's soap is indeed profitable, but he has never seen it, right?
Patriarch Yang rolled his eyes inwardly. Among the many households in his Yang family, the total amount of money in their houses was only three hundred taels.
However, who knows that the Gu family has money? As long as three hundred taels, are you a fool?
Patriarch Yang shook his head and compared again, "Three thousand taels!"
"What? Three thousand taels?" Uncle Gu gasped, "You really dare to ask, how much is three thousand taels? Do you want to empty out the Gu family's wealth?"
Gu Chengyu calculated in his mind that his second brother could still get three thousand taels of silver. After so many years, he should have saved four to five thousand taels of silver.
"Is three thousand taels a lot? Our Yang family has lost such a big face, and these three thousand taels are not enough to compensate us. We still don't ask for more for the sake of the Juren Master."
Patriarch Yang and the others had already settled the matter, and divided five hundred taels of silver between them, and gave some of the rest to the clan members. If they had more than a thousand taels left over, they would put it in the tribe to buy sacrificial fields for their children to study.
Who wouldn't be jealous if the Gu family has a candidate?
It's just that the cost of studying is huge. Which of them can afford it? If the Gu family loses money, they can also teach all the children in the family to study.
"Three thousand taels? Are you afraid that you are crazy about money? I will never give it to you!"
Gu Chengyi was very depressed at this time, but he still managed to reply, "Three thousand taels of silver, even if the soap business has improved in recent years, it will still take more than three years!"
They have already separated, and Lao Wu will definitely not be willing to contribute any more money. How can he be willing to pay for it himself?
"Gu Chengyi, do you think three thousand taels is too much? Then you'd better wait to dip into the pig cage!"
Patriarch Yang glanced at Gu Chengyi. Compared with Xiao Ming, he didn't believe that Gu Chengyi would be reluctant to give up the money.
Suddenly, a woman's shrill scream came from outside, "Don't stop me, Gu Chengyi, you heartless thing, you went behind my back and hooked up with that bitch."
Gu Chengyu held his forehead, this was his second sister-in-law.
There were several clan members guarding the Gu family's ancestral hall outside, and women were not allowed to enter the ancestral hall. Of course, Wang Yueniang, who had committed a crime, was not included. The He family was blocked by others and could not enter the ancestral hall, so she cried loudly outside.
"I am serving you at home and taking care of my baby, but you are seducing the little widow outside. Wang Yueniang, you bitch, come out here and see if I don't beat you to death."
"Sixth Aunt, please stop being so naughty. Women are not allowed to enter the ancestral hall. Look at the scratches you gave me."
When Gu Chengyi heard He's words, he didn't even have an expression on his face. In his opinion, it was normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines.
Besides, Mr. He often went to her parents' house without returning, stayed at home to take care of her husband and children, or did laundry and cooking. He had long been displeased with her.
