Chapter 328: Chapter 327: All Settled

Junior Officer He pointed at Granny Wu, who was sitting on the ground and crying bitterly, and said to the few women who had gathered to watch, "Take her back to the Wu household. These people are humiliating themselves."

Wang Cheng and Mrs. Li, along with two guards, followed Junior Officer He to the Wu household. Trailing behind them was a crowd of villagers drawn out by all the commotion. Wang Xiaodi, also worried about his father, hurried along with them.

Finally, the outside subsided.

Chen Afu watched everything from the window. The Wus were like leeches, hoping Mrs. Wu would support them forever. Even if that nine taels of silver were paid off, they would find another excuse to make their demands. Granny Wu was even worse than Mrs. Ding, while the latter abused her stepsons, the former was treating her own daughter cruelly.

Seeing the devastated Mrs. Wu, Chen Afu consoled her. "Don't cry auntie, as Dr. Huang said, you should refrain from crying and not strain your eyes."
