The old village chief frowned, looked at the crying young widow, then looked at Tian Danian who was obviously a little irritable, but he still could not do anything.

He was a smart man, and he saw through some of the tricks at a glance. He felt that the young widow wanted to use this matter to blame Tian Danian.

But now, with Gao Daping as the "eyewitness" and the description of the young widow in disheveled clothes, he could not stop the villagers from gossiping even if he wanted to side with Tian Danian.

At this time, the villagers gathered in groups of three or four, whispering to each other.

Those who are smart can't help but feel some sympathy for Tian Danian.

There were those who had no idea what was going on and were just joining in to watch the fun, pointing and talking, fully interested in watching the show.

Only a few families who were close to Tian Danian, including Changqing and his wife, the second grandfather's eldest grandson and his wife, and Fusheng, were worried.

Tian Danian was at his wit's end and fell to his knees in front of the old village chief.

He raised three fingers of his right hand and swore to the heavens, "Uncle village chief, you know who I am, Tian Danian. Today I swear to the heavens that I have never done anything improper to Liu, and I have no dirty thoughts towards her. Erliang and I are from the same clan, and I would never do anything to humiliate my brother's wife. If you violate this, I will be struck by lightning."

Tian Danian turned around and looked at the young widow again, his eyes bloodshot.

The little widow was crying, and Yu Feng saw Tian Danian's expression from the corner of his eye and shivered with fear.

The look from Tian Danian was something the young widow had never seen since she married into Tianjia Village. It was too fierce.

However, thinking of what Gao Daping had said to her before, the child in her belly and the endless money, the young widow had no choice but to go down this path.

She gritted her teeth and said, "So what if I swear to heaven? Didn't you do such a dirty thing? If you can't give me an explanation, you are forcing me to die! Erliang! Why did you leave so early? I have been bullied. I can't live anymore. I really can't live anymore!"

"You want to blackmail me? How much silver do you want? I'll give it to you!"

Tian Danian must be confused now, otherwise he would not have said such words.

When she heard that there was silver to be won, the young widow's eyes rolled around.

However, in the end, the yearning for a better life defeated money.

"What nonsense are you talking about! I'm not asking for money at all. I just don't want my reputation to be damaged! Do you know how important a woman's reputation is?"

The villagers who were watching the fun booed in unison. A woman's reputation is indeed important, but what does reputation mean to you, a young widow?

I don't know who he is. He used to have unclear relationships with several guys in the surrounding villages.

Reputation? Now you finally understand the importance of reputation?

I’m afraid that if Erliang in your family knew what you did, he would be so angry that he would run back from the underground to settle the score with you!

But at this time, everyone just felt ashamed in their hearts and said a few words, but would never say it out loud.

After all, this matter is really difficult to deal with now.

"Fifty taels!"

Tian Danian knew that today's matter was not easy to deal with, so it seemed that he had to bleed a lot of money and settle the matter with money.

The young widow didn't say anything and just continued crying.

"One hundred taels!"

Tian Danian raised the price again. The young widow paused and continued to remain silent.

"Two hundred taels!"

Tian Danian's eyes were about to spit fire. Thinking that his clean reputation was ruined, he wanted to tear the young widow in front of him to pieces, but the remaining trace of rationality stopped him.

"Five hundred taels! I only ask for the truth. Tell me exactly what happened today, and I will give you five hundred taels."

Five hundred taels?

The young widow stopped crying. With the five hundred taels, her unborn child would be guaranteed a future in building a house, buying land, going to school, and getting married.

But then she gave up the idea.

What does it mean that Tian Danian could take out five hundred taels of silver for himself at once?

——This means that he must have more silver than these five hundred taels, and it should not just be a little more, but possibly much more.

Compared with five hundred taels and more silver, of course more silver is more important.

The young widow stopped crying, but looked at Tian Danian with red eyes and aggrieved look.

"Brother Danian, what do you mean by that? Don't you want to be responsible for me? I'm a innocent widow, and you took advantage of me, and you actually want to use silver to get rid of me? There's no such thing in the world! If you use silver to insult me ​​again, I will, I will-"

The young widow stood up and looked around. She saw that the broken door at the entrance of the yard was quite strong, so she pretended to rush towards it.

She wanted to force Tian Danian to compromise by committing suicide.

She had already calculated that Gao Daping was standing next to the door panel, and she would bump into him. Could Gao Daping really watch her get bumped into?

I am still pregnant with his son. All this I am doing now is for Gao Daping's son. Gao Daping will definitely be able to stop me.

The young widow's action was beyond everyone's expectation. No one expected that the usually coquettish young widow would actually have the idea of ​​seeking death.

Seeing the young widow running straight towards the broken door, everyone gasped in fear.

The old village chief blew his beard and glared, "What do you want to do, Li? Stop her now!"

But in such a hurry, no one reacted. But Gao Daping anticipated what the young widow would do next after she said that.

However, at this moment, he was extremely conflicted, as if there were two villains fighting each other.

His dilemma is – should he stop it or not?

Don't stop me! The young widow has her beloved son in her belly.

Stop her! He felt a little guilty. If he had any contact with the young widow in front of so many villagers, would others notice the secret between them?

In fact, Gao Daping still cares a lot about the young widow's belly.

He has five children, not a single son, and none of them take his surname.

If life had not been difficult back then, he would not have become a son-in-law to the Tian family.

His biggest wish in this life was to have a son with the surname Gao to carry on the Gao family line.

So when the young widow became pregnant, Gao Daping had high hopes for her. He was obsessed with the idea that she was definitely carrying a son.

If something happened to the young widow's stomach, it would almost cost him half his life.

While Gao Daping was distracted, the young widow had already rushed to the gate of the courtyard. Even if Gao Daping wanted to stop her, it was too late.

"Ah! Be careful!"
