Chương 76: Selfishness

"20 strokes is too heavy of a punishment," Gu Yunrong said seriously.

Even if she went to jail, it was only a prison sentence, and being exiled for 3,000 miles would not kill her.

Madam Gu was stunned. She thought that as just a young lady, it was inevitable for Gu Yunrong's heart to soften.

Thinking that Madam Gu was hesitating, a trace of hope rose in Mother Su's ashen eyes and she trembled.

"Third Sister, you're wrong."

A gentle female voice retorted firmly. It was neither loud nor soft, but it was powerful.

Gu Yunrong looked in Gu Yunzhen's direction in shock.

Gu Yunzhen stared fixedly at Gu Yunrong and said methodically, "Mother Su has offended her master. If we don't punish her severely as a warning to others, won't everyone learn from her?!"

As Gu Yunzhen spoke, the shock in Gu Yunrong's eyes intensified, as if she did not recognize her anymore.
