Bab 1141: Puppet Technique

Hearing Qiao Xi's words, everyone instantly fell silent. Did Mrs. Gu mean that Lu Yan was the one who angered Old Master Lu to the point of falling sick?

Fifth Uncle's expression darkened as he berated loudly, "Gu Zheng! Previously, you said to the public that the head of the family was pretending to be sick. Now, everyone knows that the head of the family is really in a coma and can't even participate in the ancestral worship ceremony. However, you're actually spreading rumors here. Are you qualified to come and pay respects to our ancestors?"

Look, they were finally getting to the main topic!

Qiao Xi was angered to the point of laughing. "Fifth Uncle, Gu Zheng didn't say that Old Master Lu was pretending to be sick. That was everyone's guess. Moreover, the Lu family didn't retort back then, nor did you guys reveal Old Master Lu's medical record. Hence, it made everyone think that the Lu family was guilty and tacitly agreed to Old Master Lu's act.
