Gu Zecheng's face suddenly changed when he heard this, and he said patiently:

“Wan Yin, you are the daughter-in-law of the Gu family after all, and we are your uncles.

We are a family and we don’t have different opinions.

No matter what, Rong Ge'er and Sheng Ge'er are still your uncles.

These are urgent matters, and you are not thinking about how to save people.

Instead, you are here to make conditions to us."

Gu Zeqian was so anxious that he was pacing around, almost losing his temper:

"Wan Yin, what time is it?

Your second uncle and I came to you for help because we fully trust you.

Since you and the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple are old acquaintances, you can come forward and say a few good words to plead for them.

I believe that the Shaoqing of Dali Temple will give you some face.

What's more, neither of them has the courage to do something that would cost them their lives.

They must have been wrongly accused.”

Song Wanyin said calmly:

"My two uncles, as far as I know, Rong and Sheng often hang out with some questionable people.

Every time, it causes a big mess for the Gu family. The second and third branches have to pay a lot of money, right?"

Gu Zecheng and Gu Zeqian's faces looked like they had been slapped hard, and they turned red and white.

Song Wanyin's words hit the nail on the head, revealing their bitterness and helplessness. Rong Ge'er and Sheng Ge'er are indeed a troublesome problem.

Gu Zeqian completely lost his patience and put pressure on him with a loud voice:

"Wan Yin, what's the point of you saying this now?

The person is already locked up in jail, why don’t you find a way to rescue him quickly?

Let me tell you, my brother Sheng has been weak and sickly since he was young. If there is any delay, something might go wrong.

Then you are watching someone die without helping him."

Gu Zecheng scolded:

“Third brother, don’t scare Wan Yin.

Wan Yin has always been well-educated and well-mannered, and he would definitely not stand by and watch someone die.

If she came forward to explain the matter clearly, it would be clear that it was just a misunderstanding.

Rong and Sheng will be acquitted."

Seeing the two brothers singing the same tune, Song Wanyin spoke calmly:

"My two uncles, even if I come in person, this is a prison, and everything needs money.

Could it be that the Gu family doesn't intend to pay to rescue Rong and Sheng from prison? "

Gu Zecheng was stunned for a moment and finally managed to change the subject, but he didn't expect the topic to change back again.

"Wan Yin, as long as we can rescue them, we will try our best to meet any conditions you put forward."

Gu Zeqian also echoed:

"What conditions do you want to propose? As long as you promise to intercede, everything can be negotiated."

Song Wanyin already had a plan in mind, and said slowly:

"I want the silk shop and porcelain shop owned by my second uncle, and the bank and blacksmith shop owned by my third uncle."

Gu Zecheng and Gu Zeqian were horrified, their faces turned as pale as liver, and the corners of their mouths twitched continuously.

These shops are currently the most profitable and support the financial resources of the second and third bedrooms.

Unexpectedly, Song Wanyin asked for a huge amount of money right when he came up.

Asking for money is asking for their lives!

Gu Zeqian was the first to lose his temper. He was so angry that he jumped up and down, pointing at her nose and scolding:

"Song Wanyin, are you crazy about money?

How dare you set your sights on the second and third wives?

You want my bank and blacksmith shop? Go ahead and dream on!"

Gu Zecheng suppressed his anger and said patiently:

"Wan Yin, I can't agree to your conditions. If we could save people by spending money, we wouldn't have lowered ourselves to beg you."

Song Wanyin lowered her eyes and smiled:

"Since the two uncles are unwilling to spend money to avoid disaster, then I have no choice."

Gu Zeqian became anxious when he heard this, and immediately looked at his sister-in-law for help and said:

"Sister-in-law, look at your wonderful daughter-in-law.

Since ancient times, it has never made sense for elders to beg younger generations for favors.

If this gets out, people will inevitably laugh at you."

The lady was also suddenly shocked. These shops were allocated to the second and third rooms when the old marquis was still alive.

Since the family split up, the second and third wives no longer pursued fame, wealth and power. They only wanted to make a lot of money and devoted themselves to business.

However, both they and the first family were poorly managed, resulting in losses every year. In the end, only these four shops were left, barely struggling to survive until now.

Ever since the Marquis's Mansion began to go downhill, she had been obsessed with taking back the shops under the names of the second and third wives and making them her own.

Unexpectedly, Song Wanyin got there first.

The lady looked distressed, beating her chest and stamping her feet, saying:

“Never chant at night.

Your two uncles are the elders of the Gu family. Now they have humbled themselves to come and ask you for help. You should not be so ungrateful and unfilial.

Since you and the Shaoqing of Dali Temple are old acquaintances, you can just give him some money in private as a token of your appreciation.

We can’t let our elders spend the money, right?”

Song Wanyin glanced at the old lady. Her eyes were cloudy and unclear. She must have had an eye disease flare up, but she could still say such words without any pain.

The abacus beads in the lady's mind were about to fall on her face. She was simply too greedy and wanted to swallow an elephant.

"According to what mother-in-law meant, do you want me to pay out of my own pocket and go to rescue people?"

The lady had her own intention, but she tried her best to persuade him:

"Wan Yin, you are here again.

You are destined to be the daughter-in-law of the Gu family in this life, so why do you have to be so clear about it?

It's not difficult for you to just give some money, so why would you be so fussy about it?"

Seeing her bragging, Song Wanyin said coldly:

"This is a matter of principle. Since the second and third branches have already separated, why should I be the one being taken advantage of?"

Gu Zecheng and Gu Zeqian looked at each other, as if they wanted to be angry but didn't dare to do anything.

The lady said in a humble manner:

"Wan Yin, even though the Gu family has done you wrong, you shouldn't be so petty.

In order to take revenge on the Gu family, he became a hands-off boss and the servants rebelled collectively.

There is no news from the famous doctor who often treated me.

My eye disease has relapsed and I can’t see clearly. If I delay any longer, I’m afraid I’ll go completely blind.”

Gu Zeqian turned the tables and accused:

"Wan Yin, this is your fault. After all, she is your mother-in-law. How dare you..."

Song Wanyin only raised her eyes, and frightened him so much that he immediately shut up and said with a faint smile:

"It seems that you are still not anxious enough and have the time to point fingers at me here.

I am a little unwell, so I am sorry I can't accompany you any longer."

Tian Cheng supported her and turned to leave, saying worriedly:

"Girl, they won't put the blame on you, will they?"

Song Wanyin easily controlled them and said calmly:

"They don't dare. Only I can rescue Gu Changrong and Gu Yongsheng."

Tian Cheng immediately understood and sighed inwardly:

"Our daughter has finally come to her senses. Now it's the Gu family's turn to suffer."

When Gu Zecheng and Gu Zeqian saw her leaving without looking back, they were suddenly at a loss and as anxious as ants on a hot pan.

"Let's just let this go? If she doesn't agree, then my brother Rong will be hopeless, right?"

"She, she, she is so outrageous. She has no respect for her elders and is disobedient to them. She is simply lawless!"
