The Challenge of a Farmhouse Son-in-Law Chapter 444 - 444 454 Visiting Gu Wu at the Governor's Offic

444: Chapter 454: Visiting Gu Wu at the Governor’s Office 444: Chapter 454: Visiting Gu Wu at the Governor’s Office Although they were the children of the third son of the Gu family, they were also the younger siblings of Gu Youyou, and the direct grandchildren of Grandfather Gu Feng.

If Grandfather were alive, he surely would not have driven them to such a state.

It was the chili peppers and dicinal herbs that Gu Youyou had left behind that saved them.

Originally thinking that their lives were miserable, but because those chili peppers were valuable, their days were not as hard as imagined.

After spending a night at Jisheng Hall, the next day, Gu Youyou went with Jin Zijin to the Governor’s Office.

Before returning to Lotus Village, she “especially” wanted to et that Gu Wu who was reportedly sentenced to life imprisonnt.

As the victim, Gu Youyou went to the outside of the Governor’s Office and sounded the drum for justice.

Her parents were dead, and the Governor’s Office only sentenced the murderer to a life imprisonnt, so of course, as a daughter, she was dissatisfied and it was only natural for her to beat the drum to seek justice.

A while later, soone from the Governor’s Office ca out and shouted at Gu Youyou, “What are you knocking for so early in the morning?”

“This humble woman has been wronged!” she said.

“Wait!” the Governnt Official said irritably.

Who would co knocking on this drum if not to complain about injustice?

Of course, he knew that.

But he hadn’t woken up yet.

The Governnt Official banged the door shut with a thud, and Gu Youyou frowned, “This damned Governor’s Office!”

Jin Zijin said, “Small places are always like this, used to being lax.

In a place like Beijing, it wouldn’t be like this.”

Gu Youyou raised her eyebrows, “Have you been to Beijing?”

On second thought, how could Jin Zijin have never been to Beijing?

Jin Zijin said, “Yes, I went to Beijing before coming to Lotus Village.”

After a while, the vermilion gates were reopened, and Gu Youyou and Jin Zijin were finally allowed inside.

The Magistrate on the platform had bleary eyes; it seed they had indeed co too early.

He took a piece of long wood and snapped it down, “Who cries out for justice and why do you not kneel?”

Gu Youyou was startled and looked at Jin Zijin.

To tell the truth, she had just rembered that no matter what your grievance was, you had to kneel in a place like this.

But as for kneeling, Gu Youyou had only ever knelt to the deceased in her lifeti; she had never really knelt before the living.

Jin Zijin also frowned, but in a flash, two impatient Governnt Officials had already co with planks, intending to force them to kneel.

Just then, Jin Zijin took out a token to show to the Magistrate.

The sitting Magistrate was only a County Magistrate, and upon seeing that token, his face imdiately changed.

He ca down from his seat and bowed, “My eyes are poor, please…”

“As long as you know!” Jin Zijin did not let him continue, interrupting him.

“So, these two are…” The County Magistrate asked respectfully.

Gu Youyou said, “More than a year ago, you people took in a criminal, who killed his own brother and sister-in-law but wasn’t sentenced to death.”

The County Magistrate frowned and thought for a mont, then his clerk behind him imdiately said, “My lord, there was one, nad Gu Wu.”

“Oh, right, right, right,” the County Magistrate hurriedly said, “Is this Madam related to him?”

He only knew that soone had saved the life of that criminal from above; perhaps it was these two people before him?

Gu Youyou said, “I am related, I am the daughter of that tragically deceased couple.”

“Ah…?” Both the County Magistrate and the clerk were taken aback, at the sa ti becoming alard.

Normally, such a heartless person would be sentenced to death, but soone from above intervened to save him.

However, this victim’s daughter also seed like a tough person to deal with.

If she demanded the execution of Gu Wu, what should he do?

This would put him in a difficult position.

“This… this, Madam, what…

what…”

The County Magistrate was sweating profusely, stamring for a long ti without being able to articulate his thoughts.

Gu Youyou said, “I want to go to the prison to see him; I wonder if that’s possible?”
