Gu Dahu suddenly stopped in his tracks and pulled Madam Chang back. He pressed his lips together and shushed her.
Soon, the discussion gradually became clearer.
"…Gu Dahe's wife must have suffered retribution. Madam Yang must have come back to take revenge on her. Who asked her to be so vicious and evil? Do you think Gu Dahe will also suffer retribution?"
"Gu Dahe didn't break his sister-in-law's head and push her into the river, right? Otherwise, why was Jia Meizi the only one who got into trouble today?"
"Heh, you don't know about this, right?" Another person said mysteriously. "Let me tell you. Gu Dahe was drunk some time ago and personally said that on the way to Qing'an Prefecture, he knocked his niece's head and even snatched a tael of silver. I heard that his niece was already half-dead at that time. Do you think she died because he knocked her?"
"Oh? There's such a thing?"
