103 Since You Like to Make a Big Fuss, Let’s Go Big!
“That’s nonsense!” Madam Ma yelled, her face red from agitation. “I did not kill her!”
“You were the one who raised her and taught her to be a person like that. If she didn’t try to frame me and say that I murdered the entire village when I actually tried to save them, do you think she would have still died? Of course, you’ll never learn to reflect on your own actions, just like how you bullied me after I lost my parents. But, the tables have turned now!”
“Zhizhi died because of you!”
“Since Zhizhi was so innocent, let’s head to the Thousand Battalion right now and speak to Official Li. It’s a good opportunity to clear up everything about her death back then.”
Madam Ma panicked.
She knew very well that Zhao Zhizhi was stabbed to death by the officials.
But she couldn’t accept that reality, so she insisted that Zhao Chuchu had caused her death!
“Let’s go!” Zhao Chuchu walked over and tugged on Madam Ma.
Madam Ma said in a panic, “Don’t come near me!”
“We need to clear this up. Otherwise, you guys keep yelling all day that I was the one who killed Zhao Zhizhi. I won’t put up with this smearing!” Zhao Chuchu looked like she was serious about dragging Madam Ma to the Thousand Battalion to get an official jurisdiction. Madam Ma was so scared that she pissed in her pants.
Zhao Chuchu was speechless.
Madam Ma was such a coward, yet she dared to make noise in front of Zhao Chuchu all day!
“Let’s go!” Zhao Chuchu acted as though she wouldn’t let her off the hook. Despite Madam Ma urinating herself, Zhao Chuchu continued to drag her away. “We have to go to the Thousand Battalion today and get an explanation for the death of Zhao Zhizhi in front of the entire Yuanjiang Country.”
“I’ll have the people from the Thousand Battalion be my eyewitnesses. I wonder what they will do to you for attempting to smear me? Maybe your punishment will be even worse than Zhao Baogen. Oh, right, your son, Zhao Changrong, is going to be 13 soon. It’s about time for him to be engaged. I wonder if anyone would be willing to marry your son? Since you like to make a big fuss out of things, let’s go big!”
Zhao Changrong was the most precious treasure to Madam Ma.
Although she liked Zhao Zhizhi too, she definitely favored Zhao Changrong more than Zhao Zhizhi!
“Zhizhi’s death had nothing to do with you. She brought it upon herself. I was just spouting nonsense because I couldn’t accept reality. I’m not going to the Thousand Battalion. I’m not going!” Madam Ma yelled.
Zhao Chichi dragged madam Ma into the Zhao Clan’s courtyard. She looked at Madam Yang and the others, then laughed and said, “Repeat what you just said in front of them. If you’re not genuine, you’ll be struck by lightning and suffer for eternity!”
Madam Ma trembled in fear.
She didn’t dare to swear like that.
“Say it!”
“You didn’t kill Zhizhi. She brought it upon herself. It had nothing to do with you!”
“If I hear anything trying to smear me for killing Zhao Zhizhi in the future, don’t blame me for taking action.”
Old Man Zhao and the rest didn’t dare to say a single word.
Zhao Zhizhi said coldly, “I’ll come here every day to change the medicine for them. Without my permission, no one is allowed to go near them except to feed them food and medication. Otherwise, if their legs can’t be cured, all of you will give me an explanation.”
“Chuchu, don’t worry, I’ll supervise them,” Old Man Zhao said obsequiously.
He was used to being a coward.
He couldn’t discipline his daughter-in-law, and neither could he discipline his son.
Now, he didn’t dare to say anything against Zhao Chuchu.
“Zhao Baotian’s leg can be cured, but Zhao Baogen won’t be able to walk properly even after training. If you guys are unhappy with that, I’ll stop treatment immediately. They remain bedridden for the rest of their lives.”
“Please treat them. At least it’ll be better than being bedridden.”
Madam Ma and Madam Yang didn’t dare to make a sound, while Madam Liu shed tears of joy.
Even the doctor said that Zhao Baotian’s leg couldn’t be cured, but now Zhao Chuchu said it could be cured. Of course, she would be happy.
“All of you better not try to do anything funny. If you dare to come to my house and do anything shady, you’ll end up just like Zhao Baogen.”
“No, no, they won’t. I’ll make sure of that.”
Old Man Zhao kept repeating the same thing. Zhao Chuchu was getting tired of listening to him.
She tossed two packets of medication to Madam Ma and Madam Liu, then said, “Cook these for them three times a day, don’t make any mistakes!”
After working the entire morning, Zhao Chuchu was also getting very tired. Just as she was about to leave and have a good meal, someone dashed into the Zhao Clan’s courtyard and said, “Chuchu…”
