Chapter 1277: Ms. Qin’s Anger

Editor: Henyee Translations

“Furthermore, our family should not bear this burden alone. So many others have done the same; why weren’t they held accountable? Zhai is an honest person, and he would never engage in such actions willingly. Those individuals must have coerced him into it, without a doubt!”

“Zhai is the victim here! Those wrongdoers deserve punishment!”

Ms. Qin sobbed so intensely that it caused Zhao Ye a throbbing headache.

He intended to clarify to Ms. Qin the gravity of the situation, emphasizing that anyone involved would face the wrath of the authorities, who would undoubtedly administer severe consequences.

His foolish elder brother was the mastermind and had already confessed; he needed to face the consequences.

The official was infuriated to the point of extracting a harsh penalty from them.

If they weren’t resented for this, they should consider themselves fortunate. How could they possibly complain about their fate? They must have a death wis.h.!.+

Throughout history, commoners never contested with government officials, especially those in positions of authority. That was an undeniable fact.

However, when he observed his mother’s pained and incensed expression, he realized that she remained ignorant of the situation. Even if he attempted to elucidate, she wouldn’t comprehend. Consequently, he abandoned the idea of explaining.

He earnestly cautioned her, “Mom, remember never to speak recklessly outside; it could lead to catastrophic consequences for the family! I’m dead serious about this; don’t ever forget!”

He emphasized the gravity of the situation.

Ms. Qin was taken aback but grew even more indignant. “This is just too much…”

Her son was about to lose 400,000 liang once again. Oh my G.o.d, it was an astronomical sum!

Yet, when Ms. Qin thought about her eldest son enduring his prison sentence, her heart ached. She instructed Zhao Ye to bring him home.

Fortunately, she had some money saved, as she had managed the family’s finances for years.

Zhao Ye was reluctant to have Zhao Zhai return home, but Ms. Qin’s determination was unwavering. He understood that she had idle time on her hands, and if he resisted, she would undoubtedly pester him endlessly.

Moreover, he was bracing himself for his father’s anger.

Reluctantly, Zhao Ye departed.

While Strategist treated him kindly, she wasn’t shy about asking him for money.

Ultimately, they had to part with 10,000 liang to secure Zhao Zhai’s release from prison.

The moment Zhao Zhai returned, he faced a barrage of scolding from Zhao Mu.

He felt overwhelmed and disheartened.

Initially, he hadn’t comprehended the gravity of the situation, believing that he had been unlucky to get caught in the act.

However, as he listened to Zhao Ye’s explanation, he turned pale and began to sweat profusely.

Zhao Mu was exasperated. He was ordered to remain home, forbidden from venturing anywhere else or making any decisions independently, under the threat of punishment.

He planned to personally deliver the money to the Shao Family and offer a personal apology.

Zhao Zhai wasn’t convinced, but he didn’t dare to defy the orders.

After an irate Zhao Mu stormed off, Zhao Ye inquired, “Weren’t you planning to confront Zhao Shu and even considered burning the mulberry garden? Who influenced you to change your mind?”

It was only at that moment that Zhao Zhai remembered his close acquaintance, and his expression darkened.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ye realized that the man with the surname Lin had manipulated the situation.

Ms. Qin erupted into curses, determined to find someone to teach Lin a lesson, with him covering the compensation.

Zhao Ye felt thoroughly exhausted and regretted involving Zhao Zhai in the matter.

“Mom, we’re already dealing with so much these days. Please rest and refrain from suggesting any more ideas. We have a long journey ahead of us, with plenty of opportunities in the future.”
