Ms. Doctor Divine

Gu Chaoyan exchanged a glance with Auntie Lianhua, and the others followed suit. Everyone present in the yard was busy with their work, leaving no one behind to knock on the door so rudely. Even if it were a member of the family, such behavior seemed unusual.

Auntie Lianhua was concerned that something might be amiss and decided to open the door herself. She hesitated to send Danqiu, considering her vulnerability as a girl. Gu Chaoyan appreciated Auntie Lianhua’s protective instincts and felt a warmth in her heart. Despite being taken care of by her family, Gu Chaoyan hadn’t used her spiritual energy, which proved highly effective in keeping her safe.

Unaware of Gu Chaoyan’s abilities, Auntie Lianhua and the others were protective of her.

Gu Chaoyan nodded, indicating for Auntie Lianhua to open the door.

Auntie Lianhua cautiously opened the door, and a figure rushed towards Gu Chaoyan, grabbing her and bursting into tears. “Danqiu, please save Caixiu! Life has been difficult for him, and now he’s been caught by the county magistrate!”

“…”

“When your family was adopting, the county magistrate showed great respect, coming personally to your house. With such a relationship, just ask, and the county magistrate will surely release my son,” she continued, crying.

“…”

“It’s all a misunderstanding. He only admired the county magistrate’s daughter, which led to this foolish act. There are no ulterior motives; it’s truly a misunderstanding,” they pleaded.

“…”

“Danqiu, you were once engaged to Caixiu. You can be considered half a family. How can you bear to see him like this? Surely, you can’t bear to see him in such a plight,” they added with emotional appeal.

“…”

“As long as you can save my son, no matter what request you have, our Jiang family will satisfy you. Really, as long as you ask,” pleaded Jiang Caixiu’s mother, her tone filled with desperation.

Before Gu Chaoyan could respond, Auntie Lianhua swiftly slapped Jiang Caixiu’s mother across the face, causing her to tumble to the ground. Although Auntie Lianhua wasn’t a hunter, her tall and robust physique made her a formidable force. The beating left Jiang Caixiu’s mother dazed as she lay on the ground, witnessing the unfolding scene.

Auntie Lianhua scolded sternly, “What nonsense are you spouting? How can you speak like that? If you don’t know how to speak, shut your mouth and get lost.”

“…”

“What do you mean she is half family after the engagement?”

“…”

“You’re shameless, but the Yan family needs to keep the reputation.”

“…”

“I’ve lived for so long, but I’ve never seen a woman as vicious as you. You actually harmed an unmarried woman like this. Aren’t you a woman yourself?” Auntie Lianhua berated Jiang Caixiu’s mother with genuine anger.

Danqiu knew the county magistrate. The county magistrate had given Danqiu face. As a mother, she could come and beg.

But she could not beg and ask in this way.

You could come over with silver if you wanted to beg someone. You could ask Danqiu for help on account that they were from the same village. Even if Auntie Lianhua was unhappy, she could accept it.

But how did this woman from the Jiang family beg?
