Chapter 104 The Bet

Aunt Fang felt that there was nothing blocking her mouth, and she immediately felt happy and wanted to speak.

But when she wanted to speak, she realized something was wrong.

She couldn't speak!

Jiang Zhiyue secretly sneered, how could she not be on guard.

No one noticed that just as Jiang Zhiyue finished speaking, she had already released the Gu insect she was carrying.

The little bug crawled onto Aunt Fang's body according to Jiang Zhiyue's order, and then got in from her ear.

Because the voodoo was too small, it did not attract Aunt Fang's attention even if it entered the body.

Jiang Zhiyue has always wanted to try the Gu worm she refined, but she has never had a suitable opportunity. Now let Aunt Fang be the first one to try it.

This Gu is called Mantra Gu, and it has started to work since it entered Aunt Fang's body.

This poison also has another effect, that is, as long as no one asks Aunt Fang questions, she cannot speak.

Aunt Fang opened her mouth in horror. Why was she speechless?

Seeing that Aunt Fang didn't speak for a long time, Mrs. Gu couldn't help but urged anxiously: "Sister-in-law Fang, if you have any grievances, just say it. The village chief will definitely make the decision for you."

After saying that, he gave Jiang Zhiyue a sideways look proudly.

Seeing that Jiang Zhiyue didn't even look at her, Gu Shi's mouth twisted in anger.

Because she was so surprised that she could not speak, for a moment, Aunt Fang forgot to stand up and kept sitting on the ground.

Many Jiang family members came over in the yard, standing next to Jiang Zhiyue and looking unkindly at Aunt Fang on the ground.

Jiang Zhiyue looked at the ancient village chief and said calmly: "For the sake of fairness, please ask the village chief a question."

The ancient village chief nodded solemnly, glanced around at the people in a circle with somewhat cloudy eyes, and finally looked at Aunt Fang, who was sitting facelessly on the ground.

He first asked the first question: "Why did you come to Jiang's house so early in the morning?"

This time Aunt Fang was finally able to speak, and she subconsciously said: "I went to dig wild vegetables at the foot of the mountain, and I passed by here on my way back to the village."

This is true, it is an insignificant question.

The ancient village chief nodded and asked: "Then when you came to Jiang's yard, did you come in on your own initiative, or did they force you to come in?"

Aunt Fang said without thinking: "Of course I came in by myself."

The ancient village chief said again: "Then tell me what happened after you came in."

Aunt Fang opened and closed her mouth and told everything that happened after entering the Jiang family's yard.

"When I came in, his third son was supporting his pregnant daughter-in-law for a walk. He was so squeamish. None of us had ever been pregnant, and we had never missed any work in the field when we were pregnant. How could she be so timid?

God is waiting for you."

Jiang Zhiyue looked at her with a half-smile, while the others behind her looked at Aunt Fang with a somewhat unkind look.

Even the other people in Guhuai Village present felt a little embarrassed after hearing Aunt Fang's words.

Although that is said, they are indeed not that delicate when they are pregnant.

But others are lucky to be treated so well, and there is nothing wrong with that.

It’s okay to say this behind someone’s back, how can you say it directly in front of someone.

Everyone stood a little further away from Aunt Fang.

The ancient village chief continued with a somewhat displeased look on his face: "Then what?"

Aunt Fang said casually: "Isn't this a good intention? Why are you wandering around outside in this cold weather? I just want to help people in..."

Gu Shi, who had just raised her heart, breathed a sigh of relief, and she said, this damn girl must have wrongfully accused someone.

She sneered and said, "Look what I said, Sister-in-law Fang also had good intentions and wanted to help you, but you actually tied her up."

"Those who come from famine are full of banditry. Our village does not dare to keep bandits like you. Village Chief, we don't know how much trouble such people can cause in the village, so we should drive them out."

The village chief Gu looked at Gu as if he was looking at a fool and wanted someone to throw her out.

Fang's words were obviously not finished yet, so she didn't mean to slap others in the face when she answered the question!

He was about to reprimand Gu.

But before she opened her mouth, she heard Jiang Zhiyue chuckle.

She glanced at the ancient village chief, who instantly didn't want to speak. Forget it, they will bear the consequences of their own demons.

Jiang Zhiyue looked at Gu and said, "How about we make a bet. If we wrongly blame her for this, I will give you five taels of silver..."

Gu's eyes lit up. Isn't this a good thing to give her money?

She immediately said: "Sure."

Then she stretched out a hand and said, "Bring the money here."

Jiang Zhiyue glanced at her hand, but made no move. Instead, she said, "Now let's talk about what we should do if you are wrongly accused."

Seeing that Jiang Zhiyue was unwilling to give her any money, Gu Shi glared angrily and said, "Why am I wronging you? Do you want to regret not giving me money? Everyone is watching."

Jiang Zhiyue laughed softly and was not impatient. She just said: "It's a bet. Naturally, both parties have to place a bet. I placed a bet of five taels of silver. What about you?"

Gu didn't care about bets or not. She said: "How can I have five taels of silver!"

Jiang Zhiyue followed the temptation and said, "I don't want your five taels of silver either. Don't you believe in Aunt Fang's innocence? As long as you bet one tael of silver, I will make this bet with you. How about it?"

Gu Shi rolled his eyes and felt that what Jiang Zhiyue said was right. He was completely unaware that he had fallen into the trap set by Jiang Zhiyue.

The Jiang family behind them looked at their noses and hearts. They felt that since Jiang Zhiyue said this, he must be very confident, so they stood quietly behind Jiang Zhiyue without saying a word.

Others thought Jiang Zhiyue was a bit stupid for admitting her mistake when she was wrong and even giving away money.

There are even people who want to bet with Jiang Zhiyue.

Who wouldn't want the good thing of making five taels of silver for free?

Among them, only the ancient village chief noticed that something was wrong.

This girl from the Jiang family is so smart, how could she take the initiative to do things that are not good for herself?

However, it was really not easy for him to talk about this kind of thing. He thought about it and scolded Gu: "What are you messing around with? Go aside."

But Gu Shi didn't feel the kindness of the ancient village chief at all. Instead, he felt that he was always looking towards these people who had just arrived in the village.

She curled her lips and said disdainfully: "Village chief, you can't be jealous and want to stop me when I deserve the money. For my sake, don't interfere."

The village chief glanced at Gu with a hateful look, and thought to himself, I think you are going to pay for it. If it weren't for your father's sake, I wouldn't want to deal with you, you idiot!

After being interrupted by Gu, the village chief didn't want to talk to her anymore, and simply watched her do her own thing.

Some people don't know how stupid they are until they suffer.

Jiang Zhiyue watched their discussion without interrupting.

Gu said a few words to the village chief and felt that his whole body and mind felt smoother.

She looked at Jiang Zhiyue with a proud look on her face and said, "Okay, one or two is one or two."

Jiang Zhiyue reached out and took out the bet that Jiang Dalang had just written when Gu Shi and Gu Village Chief were arguing.

On yellow paper with black characters, the content of the bet between Jiang Zhiyue and Gu Shi was written in two simple sentences.

Jiang Zhiyue stretched out the paper in front of Gu and said, "Then just sign and pledge it, in case anyone doesn't want to admit it."

When she heard that she was going to sign something, Gu was a little scared again. A touch of uncertainty arose in her heart, and she looked at Jiang Zhiyue to confirm what she was trying to do.

Jiang Zhiyue didn't rush her, her face was so calm that you couldn't tell anything.

In the end, Gu couldn't resist the desire for money in her heart, so she took the paper and planned to sign it.

But she was not hopelessly stupid, knowing that apart from the Jiang family, only the village chief could read.

She was afraid that Jiang Zhiyue would use her literacy to trick her, so she asked the ancient village chief with a shy face if what was written above was a bet.

The ancient village chief looked at the content on the paper and gave her a few words of advice.

Gu, who was obsessed with money, would not listen. She was afraid that the village chief would delay her opportunity to make money, so she took the bet and put her thumbprint on it.

The villagers behind him were eager to try and put their fingerprints on it.

Their muttering was so loud that the ancient village chief not far from them could hear it clearly.

The ancient village chief cursed the stupid woman with long hair and short knowledge in his heart, then turned back and glared at them.

The women laughed twice, but after all they didn't say anything about the bet.

Jiang Zhiyue took the bet that Gu had made and placed a pat on it with satisfaction.

She smiled like a little squirrel that had stolen a pine cone and said, "Okay, please ask the village chief further."

Gu Shi stared with a pair of doubtful eyes and asked: "Why are you asking? Sister-in-law Fang already said that she came to help the person out of kindness. You can just give her money."

After waiting for a long time, Jiang Zhiyue showed no intention to give her any money. She pointed at the bet in Jiang Zhiyue's hand and threatened: "There is a pledge on it. If you want to go back on your word, I will... I will sue you!"

Jiang Zhiyue nodded: "Thank you Aunt Gu for your suggestion. If you lose the bet, I will definitely report it to the government as you wish."

She glanced at the ancient village chief.

The ancient village chief asked Aunt Fang helplessly: "What happened after you helped little Wang?"

Aunt Fang said angrily: "What else could happen? That little bitch was not willing to let me help her and started to pull her up. I just pushed her back gently. Who knew she would move back?"

If she fell face-first, it was because she failed to stand firm and deserved it!"

The way everyone looked at Aunt Fang was simply wonderful, and Gu Shi was also shocked.

After doing this for a long time, it turned out that Aunt Fang did something wrong first, and ended up shouting about catching the thief, and now she admitted it herself.

They have all seen that little Wang. He seems to be a docile person and talks kindly to others.

Compared with the other two daughters-in-law of the Jiang family, she really looks very gentle.

The Jiang family's sisters-in-law also got along well with the women in the village, so when these people heard what Aunt Fang said, they naturally sided with the victim, Mr. Wang.
