Chapter 477: Countermeasures

While the bandits were planning revenge, Gu Yu had already ordered the coachman to drive faster, and hurried back home with his maid.

Along the way, her complexion was tense, and the servant girl knocked off the teacup and made a crisp sound, which scared her to hide in the corner of the carriage, trembling all over.

"Miss, what's the matter with you?"

Seeing that her young lady's expression was wrong and her clothes were disheveled, the servant girl blamed herself very much.

Those people in Sunset Mountain were from bandits, how could she wait outside and let the lady go in alone!

Although the young lady looks ordinary, she is a little lady in her boudoir, mixed with bandits, and now she is being bullied, how can she explain to her master and wife!

"Miss, think about everything. The master has long wanted to recruit a son-in-law, so it doesn't matter whether you are innocent or not."

The door-to-door son-in-law lives on the face of the lady, otherwise, he will not be able to get a penny of the family property, and he will be a dwarf for the rest of his life.

"No...it's not like that."

Gu Yu spoke incoherently, and she was flustered. Although she grew up in the village, she was the only daughter in the family. She hadn't done much work since she was a child, and she had never killed a chicken, let alone killed anyone.

She didn't know that she was obsessed with ghosts, and she didn't react until the knife was pierced into Wu Qi's chest.

A stab in the heart would definitely kill her. If those bandits go down the mountain, she and her parents will be in danger!

What to do? Killing pays for life, she understands this truth.

For a moment, Gu Yu was dizzy, her lips were pale, her blood color was gone, and she could faint at any time.

In panic, Gu Yu arrived at the mansion, and as soon as he entered the door, he was greeted by Master Gu and Niang Wu.

The Wu family and Wu Qi's family are somewhat related. Although they were in the same village before, they had no contact with each other on weekdays.

"Mother's heart, what's the matter?"

When Mr. Gu heard that he went shopping early in the morning, he always felt that something was wrong. He asked the little leader of the caravan in charge of the carriages and horses, and learned that his daughter had gone to Sunset Mountain.

With Wu's and Wu Qi's incisive relationship, the Gu family's convoy entered easily, and he hadn't been robbed for many years. Although he knew bandit benevolence and righteousness, no matter how benevolent and righteous he was, he was still a bandit!

Wu Shi was even more flustered, she was such a darling, and had no children, and Gu Yu was ridiculed because of her big feet since she was a child, as a mother, she never felt pain in her heart!

"Xiao Hua, tell me, how do you serve Miss?"

Wu's village woman was born, and she was an upstart. She took care of the maids, but she wanted to imitate those rich and powerful families. If she caught the other party's mistakes, she would be punished by kneeling, not being allowed to eat, and slapped.

The slightest mistake of the daughter is because the maid did not serve the good person.

"Madam...servant..."

The maid named Xiaohua plopped, knelt on the ground, bowed her head and said nothing.

My young lady is determined to go her own way and insists on entering Sunset Mountain. She is a maid, so she naturally has to listen to her master, how can she be persuaded!

There was a mistake in the explanation, and there was still a mistake if she didn't explain it. She didn't say a word, waiting to be punished.

"Father, mother, let's go back to the house and talk."

Gu Yu collected herself, took a deep breath without looking at the maid who was kneeling on the ground.

It's definitely not possible to conceal it. She alone can't make up for such a big mistake.

If the one who died was an ordinary poor man, he could spend it with his own money, but Wu Qi himself had a reputation as a scholar, and his cousin was also the leader of the bandits in Sunset Mountain.

Can those people let her go after suffering the immediate loss?

No, you can't.

Gu Yu knew in her heart that she had to think of countermeasures before the bandits came.

Otherwise, if you kill someone to pay for your life, even if you find someone to convict, you will inevitably waste a lot of words.

The family of three entered the inner room, Gu Yu carefully closed the door, saw that there was no one under the eaves, and no one was eavesdropping, so she shivered, "Father, mother, I, I killed someone!"

Master Gu has a look of disbelief, his daughter can't even lift a kitchen knife, can she kill someone?

"Yu'er, stop making trouble!"

Even if you're joking, you can't make false statements. Is killing a petty crime?

"Father, it's true, I killed Wu Qi."

Gu Yu stood up, stood and walked around the room, swinging her hands down, her mind was in a mess.

Seeing his daughter like this, Master Gu believed it a little. He froze in place, and it took him a while to recover.

Wu Qi's child was almost grown up by the husband and wife. He knows his roots, is talented, and has a good character. If he becomes a door-to-door son-in-law, he won't worry that his daughter will have no one to take care of him after a hundred years.

"He said he wouldn't marry me and asked me to die."

Gu Yu only spoke half of it, cause and effect, not a word.

"How can he be so heartless, my heart!"

Wu Shi put her arms around Gu Yu, and talked again, anyway, her daughter has nothing wrong with her except for her big feet, and her family has money, so why can't she be worthy of Wu Qi?

He's just a little talent, what's his arrogance?

If a person dies, he dies. It's a big deal. Let Xiaohua, the servant girl, take the blame. The servant girl will buy one for twenty taels of silver. Is the family short of this money?

As for the government, they are a group of thieves' dens, it's good if they don't get caught, and dare to go to the Yamen to sue the officials?

Compared with Wu's defense, Master Gu was more sober, and he asked, "Yu'er, how can you be sure that Wu Qi is dead?"

If the person is not dead, has breath, or is crippled, things end better.

"Don't be sure, I pierced his left chest."

A knife pierced her heart, and she would definitely die. The bandits in Sunset Mountain were in a mess, otherwise someone would have blocked her way, and she might not be able to come back alive!

"Father, mother, I'm a little scared."

Gu Yu wiped away tears, knelt down with a plop, and sniffed, "It's my daughter who is unfilial and asked my father and mother to send a white-haired man to a black-haired one. I'll go to the yamen to surrender!"

After Gu Yu finished speaking, Wu's wailing broke out, and the mother and daughter hugged each other tightly, making Master Gu frown and his body tense even more.

Killing people to pay for their lives, paying debts to pay back money, is justified.

However, there is only one daughter in his family, Master Gu glanced at Gu Yu's clothes, and immediately had an idea.

"It's very simple. We want to sue the officials, but we don't surrender."

Wu Qi tried to **** his own daughter, but the daughter fought to the death, and accidentally stabbed a dagger into Wu Qi's heart. In this way, the crime was lessened.

At that time, if you give some more money, it will basically make the big things small and small things small.

Not only that, but right now, there is an opportunity to make a contribution.

"Father, how do you make meritorious service?"

Now, Gu Yu realizes how important it is to be alive, why is she infatuated with Wu Qi, go to hell, he is dead, she doesn't feel bad at all, and she still has a feeling that the dust has settled.

"Wu Qi is dead, Sunset Mountain must be messed up."

Master Gu wiped his beard, and his eyes were full of calculations. At this time, the guards must relax their vigilance.

They will sue the officials now, and then cooperate with the government to encircle and suppress the bandits in Sunset Mountain, taking advantage of his illness and killing him by surprise! If it can be done, it will be a great achievement. Killing people is just a trivial matter, and it will be wiped out easily!
