When the village chief He saw Mrs. Chen being snapped at, he felt extremely pleased. He stroked his beard and followed up, "Da Gui's wife, this is just a woman's narrow view. Da Fu is right, it's fine, no need to worry so much. How could those Evil Men come every single day?"
Mrs. Chen feared Gu Jinli, but she wasn't afraid of the village chief He at all. In her heart she even blamed him for always bringing He Jinseng over to curry favor with Gu Jin'an and snatch away Gu Dexing's status. After hearing this, she directly retorted, "Village chief, I'm only worried about Jin Sheng. He's timid—if he gets scared again tonight, his courage will probably shatter. If he can't pass the exam in the future…"
"Mrs. Chen, shut your mouth!" Cold sweat was already breaking out on Gu Dagui. He hurriedly yanked Mrs. Chen and cut her off: "You woman talk too much. Stop it now, don't delay Brother An and the others going back to the county."
