Chapter 54: The Witness

The slap was so powerful that Mrs. Qian’s face quickly swelled.

Gu Zhong hurried over and scolded Gu Fei: “Xiao Fei, how could you hit an elder!”

Gu Fei sneered: “Does she look like an elder?”

“She talked nonsense as soon as she opened her mouth. She is trying to kill our whole family. Should I allow her to keep talking nonsense?”

Gu Zhong frowned: “But still, you can’t hit her!”

The brothers of the second branch and Gu Zhang quickly gathered around, standing behind Gu Fei one by one, staring fiercely at Gu Zhong and his wife.

Gu Zhong’s shoulders shrank. His second brother had three sons, which was his confidence.

Unlike him, he only had one son, Baoer, after being married for more than 20 years. His family was no match for them.

Gu Zhong sighed and pulled Mrs. Qian: “Let’s go and eat quickly. We still have to go on the road.”

Mrs. Qian has such a hot temperament and likes to cause unreasonably. At this moment, she felt she was in the right, so how can she just let it go?

It was obvious that she could win if she fought.

She sat down on the ground and started to cry: “Everyone please comment. Is there such a niece in the world? She even dares to attack her aunt. Why doesn’t God strike her to death with a thunderbolt?”

Gu Fei looked at her coldly and suddenly raised her voice: “Everyone, come here, I have something to say.”

Everyone gathered around while eating dry food.

They were smart people, otherwise, they wouldn’t follow them. They gathered around and no one said anything.

Gu Fei said solemnly: “Everyone must have heard the nonsense my eldest aunt just said.”

“Although I have a clear conscience and I didn’t have to explain anything, I don’t want to cause unnecessary trouble. I, Gu Fei, swear here that the pancakes I eat at home and these mule carriages have nothing to do with the Marquis Mansion.”

“If I tell a lie, I will be struck by lightning and die!”

Everyone was startled.

In this era, people fear God, and generally, no one dares to make such a poisonous oath.

If Gu Fei said this, there was a high probability that what she said was true.

At this moment, Lanzhi suddenly opened the curtain and got out of the car.

“I can testify to what Xiao Fei said.”

“I am the second young lady of the Marquis Mansion.”

When everyone heard this, they were stunned and looked at Lanzhi up and down one by one.

No wonder this young lady was so beautiful, with tender skin and flesh. She turned out to be a young lady from the Marquis Mansion.

Lanzhi’s shoulders were straight, showing the nobility of the Marquis lady without any reservation.

She said calmly: “My home was ransacked, but I had saved 1,600 taels of silver at the bank.”

“Xiao Fei spent 1,800 taels to redeem me from the Jiaofang House.”

“The extra 200 taels were given to me by Xiao Fei herself.”

“I can guarantee that Xiao Fei’s money has nothing to do with the Marquis Mansion.”

She also saw the gold at that time. It was not from the Marquis Mansion, nor was it from the Daying.

Just as the young master said, the gold from Daying was not that pure!

“Please don’t talk about this again in the future.”

Everyone nodded at this time: “That’s right, those words shouldn’t be talked like it’s nothing. This is a crime of beheading, and it’s not a joke.”

Even Old Lady Gu said: “Qian, please restrain your mouth, don’t bring trouble to the family!”

“Yeah, don’t talk nonsense in the future.”

Everyone was blaming Mrs. Qian.

Mrs. Qian was furious: “Then where did her money come from?”
