978 Do You Dare to Swear
Gu Xiaowan cried with blood and tears, and the people around were stunned when they heard that Gu Xiaowan's aunt lived such an inhuman life.
He heard Gu Xiaowan continue: "I finally persuaded my aunt to reconcile with my ruthless uncle. It hasn't been a good year yet, and this is a big disaster! Just ask, how could my aunt be that kind of shyness? Woman? She has been hurt so much by men, and now she is afraid of men. She has been at home at ease, living her life as she should, but you even slandered my aunt to run away with other men! I want to ask you, Miss Liu, if you didn't slander your aunt, would you be willing to kneel down and swear that you can't die in this life!"
Gu Xiaowan said these words almost through gritted teeth.
That afternoon, it was also in this place that Liu Tianci destroyed his aunt's reputation in a few words.
Gu Xiaowan has done a good job today, she must get justice for her aunt.
Didn't Liu Tianci say that her aunt eloped with another man? So swear by it, as if I saw it with my own eyes.
So good, since you are so sure, do you dare to swear to the sky, if you say a half-sentence lie, you will be struck by lightning and die!
Liu Tianci did not expect that Gu Xiaowan would make her swear, and her face became a little flustered.
However, with so many eyes staring at her in front of her, at this moment, she absolutely cannot shrink back.
However, Gu Fangxi didn't run away with anyone at all. If this was an oath, wouldn't it be just waiting for the sky to be struck by thunder and not die?
But if she didn't swear, then she just swore that Gu Fangxi had eloped with another man, and she was deceiving everyone!
Liu Tianci's eyes dodged a little, and he opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to answer.
Now she has been riding a tiger.
Suddenly, with a flash of inspiration, she thought that Gu Fangxi had left Liujiazhen, and she was afraid that Gu Xiaowan might not be able to find it all her life. Why don't you just tell a lie and get it right.
So, Liu Tianci pointed at Xiaotao and said weakly, "I didn't see your aunt eloping with a man, I just listened to my maid. She has to swear, and she should swear!"
Xiao Tao's hand trembled, what?
Make her swear a lie?
Xiao Tao's eyes were a little frightened, and she looked at Liu Tianci with a little fear.
Unexpectedly, Liu Tianci whispered in her ear: "What are you afraid of? Gu Fangxi has left Liujiazhen, who can find her! If you don't swear, I'm afraid these people will start to doubt!"
The ancient people were most afraid of gods.
As soon as I heard that I had to swear to the gods that I didn't tell a lie, it would be tantamount to using my life to prove that my words were right!
Xiao Tao was a little scared.
She and Liu Tianci knew exactly where Gu Fangxi went.
But now, the young lady asked her to swear with her life that she saw Gu Fangxi eloping with another man!
Isn't it too hard to be struck by lightning and die?
Xiao Tao was very frightened. After listening to Liu Tianci's words, she still wriggled her mouth embarrassingly, unable to utter a single oath.
Mrs. Jiang stood by and heard Gu Xiaowan asking Liu Tianci to swear.
But Liu Tianci actually made Xiaotao swear that it was only Xiaotao who saw Gu Fangxi eloping with the man.
Look at the terrified look on Xiao Tao's face, the way she was afraid of swearing and didn't dare to open her mouth at all, where it seemed that she was telling the truth, it was obviously a lie!
Mrs. Jiang's face was no longer good-looking. If Xiao Tao really didn't swear, Liu Tianci would probably shoot herself in the foot this time.
This Liu Tianci is also true, and he plainly uses the reputation of other people's women to make a fuss.
Mrs. Jiang's face was not good-looking, but Liu Tianci might be her daughter-in-law in the future. If she didn't save her, who would save her?
Moreover, Madam Jiang suddenly felt curious, when did Liu Tianci get so close to Gu Xiaowan?
Besides, what does she want to do by kidnapping someone else's aunt?
Madam Jiang was full of questions, but now is not the time to ask.
Xiao Tao's face was pale, and in the eyes of others, it became a guilty conscience.
More and more people pointed and pointed, and the timid ones pointed at Xiao Tao and whispered.
No one dared to point at Liu Tianci yet, but as long as someone took the lead and started to criticize, and someone opened up, there would be more and more people behind.
The crowded crowd of people who are watching don't know who suddenly opened their mouths and shouted, everyone, look, they dare not swear, are they guilty!
This is incredible. Those people don't care whether you are from the capital or the daughter of a fifth-rank official in the capital. You have falsely accused the reputation of other people's women, and you still dare not swear!
If Gu Xiaowan didn't say the words to make them swear, I am afraid that today they will all believe that Gu Fangxi really eloped with someone.
What a smudge this is to other people's wives!
Liu Tianci and Xiaotao did not expect that their hesitation would provoke public anger.
If there were only one or two commoners who spoke ill of them, it would be easy to do, just arrest them and put them in jail.
But how do you arrest the hundreds of people in front of you?
Can you catch it?
Liu Tianci understood that this was a trap that Gu Xiaowan deliberately dug for her. If they didn't swear today, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to stop these lingering voices at all!
Thinking of this, Liu Tianci glared fiercely at Xiao Tao, who was shrinking, and said sternly: "Xiao Tao, you saw Gu Fangxi eloping with another man, why don't you swear quickly!"
Xiao Tao was a little scared, but seeing the anxious look of the young lady, she kept making faces with herself, and the cacophony of the onlookers.
If she didn't swear today, she might not even be able to enter the gate of Jiang Mansion.
She could only close her eyes, her heart slammed, and she said loudly, "I, Xiaotao, swear by my life here today, I saw Gu Fangxi eloping with a man with my own eyes, if you slander Gu Fangxi in the slightest, I will be struck by lightning, no... ...to die!"
