The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space Chapter 2336: Unable to Distinguish Right from Wrong (1)

"I’ll stand witness for this." The village chief rose to his feet, "I escorted that person here myself that night." He turned his gaze toward Yang Daju, "How could you act so ungratefully?"

"I..."

"Weren’t you the one who agreed to notify the officials back then?" The village chief’s expression grew stormier, "So what’s Guan Xinxin done wrong now? Was it Xinxin who threw your husband in jail?"

"This is outrageous." Feng Zilan moved forward too, "It appears our Xinxin won’t risk helping folks anymore, since anyone might barge in with wild charges, huh?"

"Yang Daju, have you gone mad?" Wang Xinghua burst out suddenly, "How could you turn kindness into enmity like this? If you want your man freed, head to the County Governor’s Office—why drag Xinxin into it?" Lately, she’d been fretting over her oldest son’s marriage, and this foolish display pushed her to vent her frustration.

"Right, who’d expect Yang Daju to mix up good and bad."

"She must’ve fallen under that Wang Liuzhi’s spell."

"Oh, it’s too much to bear." Yang Daju knew she’d messed up, yet she couldn’t face life without a husband, forcing her to take this gamble, "Are you all trying to drive my kid and me to our deaths? You..." She started out furious, but once her head wound proved minor, fear gripped her. Manless, she’d be a widow, her boy just ten—how would they manage ahead? Thus, she refused to let Wang Liuzhi rot in prison. Sure, he caused occasional headaches, but at least he was a man around, wasn’t he?

"Yang Daju, what’s this nonsense?" Dong Wenxiu scowled, "What harm has our Xinxin ever caused you?"

"Big sister-in-law, your daughter’s so capable, so widowhood doesn’t faze you, but my little one’s still young with no support—I can’t end up widowed..."

"You..." Dong Wenxiu’s anger choked her words, her complexion paling. Who’d choose widowhood if they could avoid it? Wasn’t this a direct stab at her sore spot?

"Shut your mouth with lies!" Sanni leaped forward, "Keep spouting garbage and watch me slap you! Scram!"

Yang Daju trembled in fright, "I meant no offense, my words just come out clumsy. I figured Xinxin knows the county master well and might put in a good word to spring my husband."

"Pure rubbish." Fang Tianze approached, his features hardening, "Do you see Daxuan’s laws as a joke? Can folks just do as they please? Princes face the same penalties as peasants for crimes."

Yang Daju ducked her head once more, spotting the county master’s son.

"You reported it, so Wang Liuzhi’s assault counts as a crime, and jail time’s expected." Fang Tianze let out a sigh, "The trial hasn’t happened yet—no judgment’s out. Keep yapping here, and you might join him behind bars right away, believe it or not?"

"I’ll stay quiet now." Yang Daju scrambled up at those words, pulling out a cloth to clean her face, "Xinxin, I misjudged, but I dread becoming a widow, and my child needs his dad, doesn’t he? So..."

"In three days, the county master will conduct a public hearing on this matter. Show up as the affected party, and decide if you’ll press charges or drop it." Yang Ruxin smirked, "Until the verdict, nobody can pull him free."

"I get it, thanks." Yang Daju’s face lit up with a grin, "I’m heading out. Oh, here’s the eggs I gathered—a wedding gift for the couple." With that, she offered the basket by her feet.
