Chu Jinxiao said appropriately: "Put him in jail and beat him with a stick."

Xu Zhiyan crossed her arms and asked Chu Jinxiao, "How long will he be locked up?"

Xu Qian couldn't help but ask: "How many strokes do you want?"

Chu Jinxiao lowered his head and asked lovingly, "How long do you want her to be locked up?"

Pointing at himself, Xu Zhiyan thought she had misheard.

Just as she was about to ask something, she heard Chu Jinxiao say, "I'll keep her in prison for as long as you want."

Where does Mrs. Xu go all day?

"Xu Zhiyan, you can't do this to your aunt. She's your elder."

Before Xu Zhiyan could say anything, Xu Qian angrily asked, "What kind of elder is this?"

The people around nodded in agreement.

Everyone thought this guy was quite pitiful before, but now there is no pity for him at all.

When they didn't know, who knew what Xu Wenyu said to them.

Would he be like he did with Xu Zhiyan, secretly saying bad things about them behind their backs?

Xu Zhiyan looked at Xu Wenyu lying on the ground thoughtfully: "If Xu Wenyu is imprisoned, do you think Xiao Yi will still want this fiancée?"

Chu Jinxiao knew what Xu Zhiyan wanted and glanced at Xu Wenyu with a half-smile.

"What scholars care about most is reputation. Even if I marry Xu Wenyu in the future, it's hard to say whether she will be my wife."

When Xu Wenyu heard Chu Jinxiao's words, her already ugly expression became even uglier.

Struggling to get up from the ground, Xu Wenyu said in a hoarse voice: "You are talking nonsense."

"Xiao Yi didn't like you in the first place. This opportunity will give him a reason to break off the engagement with you, don't you think?"

"By the way, if you are thrown into jail, my third uncle will be implicated as well, right? He has finally been able to take the exam to become a scholar, and if he gets implicated by you, what do you think I should do?" Xu Zhiyan said, pretending to be worried.

It seemed like he was talking to Xu Wenyu, but actually he was talking to Old Lady Xu.

Sure enough, when Mrs. Xu heard this, her face changed. She grabbed Xu Wenyu's arm and dragged her up, gritting her teeth and saying, "Yu'er, apologize."

Xu Wenyu's face was swollen, and she looked at Old Lady Xu in disbelief: "Mom, you want me to kneel down and apologize to Xu Zhiyan?"

Xu Zhiyan waved her hands quickly: "You are wrong. You should not kneel down and apologize to me, but to the person you slandered. You can even slander and abuse the widow of a soldier. I don't know where you got the courage from."

Xu Wenyu's already ugly expression became even uglier.

Staring at Xu Zhiyan in front of him.

"Apologize?" Xu Zhiyan stopped taking action and instead asked Xu Wenyu with a smile.

"Yuer, apologize. If you were really thrown into jail, your marriage and your third brother's future would be ruined." Old Mrs. Xu would never allow anyone to stop her son from taking the exam to become a scholar, not even her beloved daughter.

Xu Mu looked at the embarrassed Xu Wenyu with a sneer. If Xu Wenyu had listened to him, he would not have been targeted like this.

After all, the person who was helping Xu Zhiyan was the young master who needed a wedding.

"Xu Wenyu, you should deal with the problems you caused yourself, and don't involve your third brother." Xu Mu thought of this and said coldly.

Old Mrs. Xu glared at Xu Mu, then thought of her youngest son. She reached out and pushed Xu Wenyu: "Apologize quickly."

Xu Wenyu staggered forward a few steps and almost fell down.

Xu Wenyu listened to the whispers coming from her ears, and no one was willing to speak up.

This made Xu Wenyu feel a little unwilling, but she knew that if she was unwilling to apologize, she would be the only one who would suffer in the end.

Biting her lip, she looked at Chu Jinxiao beside her: "Master Chu, can you help me?"

Xu Zhaodi next to her thought of something and said, "Xu Wenyu also said that this young master is a sickly person and will die sooner or later. Xu Zhiyan can only be a widow who brings down her husband."

“……”Everyone present except Xu Wenyu.

Xu Zhiyan couldn't help but laugh. How arrogant must Xu Wenyu be to say such a thing?

You haven't even become the wife of a high-ranking official yet, but you dare to say such things.

"Xingchen slaps his mouth."

Xingchen was already angry when he heard this, and now that Chu Jinxiao had spoken, he didn't need to restrain himself.

Looking at Xingchen walking towards him, Xu Wenyu kept shaking his head: "That's not what I think. I never said such a thing. It's Xu Zhaodi who is talking nonsense."

"Who's talking nonsense?"

Xu Wenyu looked at Xu Zhaodi with resentment. As long as she was fine, she would make Xu Zhaodi pay the price for it.

"Don't look at me like that. I'm going to die, but you're the fiancée of the Juren."

Xu Wenyu suppressed the anger in her heart, gritted her teeth and knelt on the ground, looking at Xu Zhiyan and Xu Qian in front of her and said, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have insulted you, I know I was wrong."

Xu Zhiyan thought she would see Xu Wenyu resisting, but she didn't expect Xu Wenyu to be able to let it go.

He said to kneel down and apologize, and he knelt down so smoothly.

Xu Zhiyan looked at Xu Wenyu biting her lips and apologizing, and she knew that Xu Wenyu's apology was not sincere.

Xu Zhiyan came up to Xu Wenyu and asked with a smile, "Do you hate me now?"

Xu Wenyu knelt on the ground and looked up at Xu Zhiyan, the hatred in her eyes unable to be concealed.

Xu Zhiyan was right, she just hated her.

If Xu Zhiyan hadn't been so aggressive, things wouldn't have turned out like this.

As an aunt, she would not be forced to kneel down and apologize.

Even apologized to the person she hated the most.

Seeing Xu Wenyu's hateful expression, Xu Zhiyan smiled and said, "Xu Wenyu, you have always liked to snatch my things since you were a child, but now I am no longer the Xu Zhiyan who was easily bullied by you."

"If you want to bully me, you must be prepared to be bullied back."

Xu Wen's face turned livid as she spoke, she knew Xu Zhiyan was warning her.

Xu Qian looked at Xu Wenyu and said, "Your apology is not sincere. I think you are deliberately embarrassing us, right?"

"With the way you are, I would have thought you wanted to kill us."

Xu Wenyu suppressed the anger in her heart and said to Xu Qian: "I really know I was wrong, can't you forgive me this time?"

Xu Qian asked the widow next to her: "Sister-in-law, do you believe Xu Wenyu?"

The woman shook her head grimly: "I don't believe it."

Xu Qian spread her hands helplessly: "Xu Wenyu, look, no one is willing to believe you."

Xu Wenyu looked at the people in front of her with shame and anger, and said angrily: "You are just trying to embarrass me on purpose."

Old Lady Xu watched them forcing Xu Wenyu like this, and stood up and said, "Yu'er has already apologized, what else do you want?"

This sentence made the village chief dissatisfied, and he stood in front of Xu Qian: "Is she apologizing?"

"If you want to apologize, be sincere."
