The Farmer’s Eldest Daughter Has a Spatial Pocket

Chapter 1130: Arrest

Only then did Gu Yundong dawdle out of the kitchen. She said to the six of them, “You’re just making a fuss. I just accidentally dropped something and made a sound. Is it worth it for all of you to come in? All of you are men. Why are you so rash?”

The six of them were speechless. Who was making such a fuss?

They wanted to defend themselves, but Gu Yundong had already bypassed them and strode towards Shao Qingyuan, who had been standing in the courtyard for some time.

“Brother Shao, you’re awake. Did I wake you up just now? I’m sorry. I’ll be more careful next time.”

“It’s okay. I’ve had enough sleep.”

As they spoke, they returned to the house.

The six of them were speechless. So what happened just now?

Shao Qingyuan briefly explained the process of meeting the county magistrate in the county city. Then, he said, “When I came back just now, I saw Chief Zhou gathering people. It seems that he’s going to settle the score. Is Uncle feeling better? Let him be mentally prepared.”

“Much better. I’ll go in and take a look.”

Gu Xiaoxi was indeed much more energetic than yesterday. When she saw her enter, she hurriedly asked, “Is Shao Qingyuan back?”

“Yes, it might be a little messy later. Uncle, get up and put on your clothes first.”

“Okay.”

Gu Yundong spoke to Chang Yaya, who was peeling beans in the same room. Chang Yaya was a little nervous. Gu Yundong smiled at her comfortingly. “It’s alright.”

“Yeah.”

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a knock on the door outside the courtyard.

The people in the courtyard immediately ran to open the door. Not long after, a large group of people from the Zhou family rushed in.

Chief Zhou was the first to bear the brunt. When he saw Shao Qingyuan, Gu Yundong, and Chang Yaya walk out of the house, he sneered and said, “The matter has been investigated clearly. Chang Yaya seduced Gu Xiaoxi. The evidence is conclusive. The punishment from before will not change.”

Then, he said to the young men behind him, “The few of you, go in and bring Gu Xiaoxi and Chang Yaya out.”

“Wait.” Chief Chang and the members of the Chang Clan rushed over with ashen faces. “What does Chief Zhou want to do? What do you mean by the matter has been investigated clearly? Why don’t we know? You want to execute a person of the Chang Clan, but you didn’t even tell us. Do you think our Chang Clan is easy to bully?”

The people behind him were also filled with righteous indignation. They held hoes and shovels in their hands and looked like they were about to fight someone to the death.

Chief Zhou sneered. “How can I not know? Back then, so many people saw them lying on the bed in disheveled clothes. Aren’t you clear enough about catching them in the act?” As he spoke, he suddenly leaned close to Chief Chang’s ear and whispered, “Old Chang, don’t blame me for not reminding you. I’ve received confirmation. This Shao is not a high-ranking official. He’s a fake. If you continue to get involved with him, be careful not to be consigned to eternal damnation. Hahahaha.”

Patriarch Chang’s face turned pale as he looked at him in shock.

Chief Zhou waved his hand impatiently. “Arrest him.”

“Yes, Chief.” The few young men behind him replied confidently.

Shao Qingyuan immediately straightened his bow. The few of them stopped in their tracks and did not dare to go forward.

Chief Zhou snorted coldly. “Young Master Shao, do you know what kind of crime it is to impersonate an official of the imperial court? That’s a huge crime, and your entire family will be executed. I advise you not to meddle in other people’s business. Otherwise, it’s not worth it to implicate your entire family for Gu Xiaoxi.”
