Yang Daju confronted Guan Xinxin, demanding help to free her jailed husband Wang Liuzhi and accusing her of injustice. The village chief, Feng Zilan, and others defended Xinxin, highlighting Yang Daju's prior agreement to report the assault and her ingratitude. Chastened by warnings of the law from Fang Tianze, Yang Daju backed down, promised to attend the trial in three days, and departed with eggs as a gift.

“I'll stand as witness for that.” The village chief rose to his feet, “I escorted the man here myself that evening.” He turned toward Yang Daju, “How could you act so ungrateful?”

“I…”

“Didn't you consent to informing the officials back then?” The village chief's expression grew sterner, “What's Guan Xinxin done wrong now? Was it Xinxin who threw your husband in jail?”

“This is ridiculous.” Feng Zilan advanced as well, “It seems our Xinxin won't risk aiding folks lightly anymore, lest anyone shows up hurling baseless claims, right?”

“Yang Daju, have you gone mad?” Wang Xinghua burst out suddenly, “How could you turn gratitude into grudge so swiftly? If you're set on rescuing your man, head to the County Governor’s Office—why bother Xinxin?” Lately, she'd been fretting over her oldest son's marriage, and facing this foolish woman, her patience snapped.

“Precisely, who'd expect Yang Daju to mix up good and bad.”

“Surely got charmed by that Wang Liuzhi.”

“Oh, it's too much.” Yang Daju came to see her error too, yet without a husband, she had no choice but to gamble, “Are you all pushing my kid and me toward doom? You lot…” Initially furious herself, but once her head wound proved minor, fear gripped her. Manless, she'd be widowed, her boy just ten—how to get by ahead? Thus, she refused to let Wang Liuzhi rot in prison. Sure, he caused occasional hassle, but at least a man remained, didn't he?

“Yang Daju, what's this behavior?” Dong Wenxiu scowled, “What wrong has our Xinxin caused you?”

“Big sister-in-law, your daughter's so skilled, widowhood doesn't faze you, but my boy's too little, no support around—I can't end up widowed…”

“You…” Rage choked Dong Wenxiu, draining color from her face. Who'd choose widowhood willingly? Wasn't this a dagger to the soul?

“Nonsense!” Sanni bounded forward, “Spout more garbage and watch me slap you silly? Scram!”

Yang Daju trembled, “No ill intent, I just fumble words. I figured Xinxin knows the county master well, might put in a plea to free my husband.”

“Utter rubbish.” Fang Tianze approached, face grim, “Think Daxuan's laws are mere decoration? Can folks do as they please? Princes face equal justice as peasants for crimes.”

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

“You filed the report, so Wang Liuzhi's charged with assault—jail time's expected.” Fang Tianze exhaled, “Trial's pending, no judgment yet. Keep yelling, and see if you don't join him behind bars right away?”

“No more yelling from me.” Yang Daju sprang up at once, pulled a cloth to dab her face, “Xinxin, my thinking was off, yet I dread widowhood, my child needs his dad—right? So…”

“In three days, the county master trials this publicly. Show as the complainant; sue or drop it, your call.” Yang Ruxin smirked, “Till sentence passes, nobody springs him.”

“Got it, thanks.” Yang Daju flashed a grin instantly, “Heading out. Oh, eggs I gathered—newlyweds' gift.” With that, she offered the basket by her feet.
