Farmer's Wife Has Space

Chapter 979 Hostage Exchange
Master Chu recalled that when he was drunk, he did say a lot.

He wasn't sure if he had said such a thing, but he had said it to his family in private.

Could it be that he was really so muddled that he said what he shouldn't?
Alas, if I had known it earlier, I would have listened to my third brother and never drank a drop of alcohol.

Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret in this world.

Thinking of this, Patriarch Chu bit the bullet and made a distinction for himself.

"Drunk three minutes sober, how could I say such inhuman words?"

Patriarch Xue sneered and said, "Everyone knows that others are sober when drunk, but you are strong and courageous! When you are drunk, you think you are the emperor!"

This was right to the point, and it was true, Patriarch Chu blushed.

Young Master Chu and Third Uncle Chu felt bad when they saw Patriarch like this.

Alas, the Patriarch probably said such a thing!
They could imagine the scene at that time. At the beginning, the two sides had a good discussion and everything went smoothly. The owner drank a few more drinks when he was happy, and ended up saying something that shouldn't be said.

The people in Taohualin must be very angry, what cooperation are they talking about?
They did not stop doing two things, simply poisoned the owner of the house, slandered the people brought by the owner, and poisoned their drinking water.

Never should, never should, the Patriarch shouldn't have gone to Peach Blossom Forest!
Uncle Chu asked coldly, "Then what do you want?"

Patriarch Yang asked them back: "Patriarch Chu's life, do you still want it?"

Young Master Chu went into a rage on the spot: "What nonsense are you talking about, how could my father's life be lost!"

"From now on, if you dare to scold us, I will give you a whip!"

"I think it's your mouth that is stronger, or my whip."

Patriarch Xue did what he said, and lashed Patriarch Chu with a whip.

"what……"

Patriarch Chu clutched his arm and grinned in pain. He was originally sitting on a stretcher, but when the whip came down, he directly lay back on the stretcher.

Young Master Chu was so angry that he was going crazy: "Third Uncle, just watch them bully my father!"

Third Uncle Chu's face was also gloomy, but he held back Young Master Chu: "Don't make any more trouble! Do you want to see your father and be beaten to death by them?"

Then he turned to look at Patriarch Yang again: "Tell me, what do you want in exchange."

The corner of Patriarch Yang's mouth twitched into a smile: "Leave the two women from the General's Mansion to us, and we will release Patriarch Chu and give him the antidote."

Gu Zheng and Yue Lingzhi were in the space, watching everything that happened.

At this moment, Yue Lingzhi's mood fluctuated greatly.

"Gu Zheng, a member of the top ten aristocratic families, what do you want to do, why do you want to exchange hostages?"

Gu Zheng whispered: "I can't guess their real intentions for the time being, don't get excited now, we will play by ear."

There may be two purposes for the ten great families to exchange hostages.

One was that he didn't want to join forces with the Chu family, so after rescuing Ouyang Qing and Grandma Lingzhi, he handed them back to the General's Mansion and made friends with them.

The second is that I want to use the hostages to make a deal with them in exchange for the tokens given out 300 years ago.

But Gu Zheng estimates that the first possibility is relatively high.

Patriarch Yang and Patriarch Xue don't look stupid.

He is not warlike, and he still regards glory and wealth as dung. The fact that he took the initiative to return the tokens of Longtang, Fengtang, and the General's Mansion has long been spread throughout the world.

The fact that he and Ganoderma lucidum are invincible in the world has long been spread throughout the rivers and lakes, and it is impossible for the top ten aristocratic families not to hear about it.

Under such circumstances, if the top ten families still choose to be their enemies, it would be too stupid.
