Farmer's Wife Has Space

Chapter 980 We used to know each other
Before, Gu Zheng was a little worried that the top ten families would secretly choose to cooperate with the Chu family because of their relationship with the Chu family as monarchs and ministers, and because of their hatred with the Gu family.

He can feel at ease with Patriarch Xue's words just now.

Hearing that the hostages in the General's Mansion were going to be exchanged, Young Master Chu and Third Uncle Chu were silent.

Young Master Chu really wanted to scold people but didn't dare to scold, and he didn't dare to rob people, his face turned into a pig's liver.

He didn't want his father to die, nor did he want to hand over the hostages he managed to get back.

He was waiting for third uncle to come up with a good solution.

But what can Uncle Chu think of?
His thoughts were the same as Young Master Chu's, he didn't want to see his elder brother die, and he didn't want to just hand over the hostages.

But the people in Taohualin have always done things cleanly, and the conditions they put forward have never been negotiable.

Patriarch Xue was a little impatient:

"Have you thought about it?"

"What's there to hesitate about?"

"If you think that the life of your Patriarch is more important than those two hostages, you should quickly exchange the hostages."

"If you think that the life of your Patriarch is not as important as those two hostages, then simply say that you will not change it!"

"We might as well kill this extra person right away, and then go home and sleep!"

It was related to his own life and death. Patriarch Chu, who was lying on the stretcher, struggled to sit up and looked at his son and third brother helplessly.

He wanted to tell them that if there was no firewood left in the green hills, his life would definitely be more important than those two hostages.

However, if he said this, it would appear that he was a little afraid of death.

He is the head of the Chu family, so he still wants face.

He hoped that his son and third brother could understand what he meant.

Patriarch Xue became more and more impatient.

"Young Master Chu, if you don't speak, do you not want your old man to live?"

"Your feelings are also understandable. Lao Tzu died, and it happened that his son took over. This is a matter of course..."

Patriarch Chu was furious and interrupted Patriarch Xue.

"What nonsense are you talking about? How could those two hostages be more important than my father!"

"You'd better keep your word, I'll bring the hostages here!"

But he was stopped by Uncle Chu: "Wait a minute! Wait for Uncle Chu to negotiate with them."

Young Master Chu stopped obediently.

Patriarch Xue exhausted his patience:

"Stop talking so much nonsense! There is no room for negotiation on this matter!"

"We don't have so much free time to waste time here with you!"

But Third Uncle Chu sneered: "Patriarch Xue, I just want to ask you, do you know the relationship between Patriarch Yang and Ouyang Shan?"

Patriarch Xue was stunned for a moment, then looked back at Patriarch Yang: "He's talking shit, isn't he?"

Patriarch Yang's expression froze for a moment: "We used to know each other, that's all."

Third Uncle Chu sneered again: "Patriarch Yang, do you dare to swear that you didn't love Ouyang Shan to the point of madness, and you even never married for her sake!"

As soon as the words came out, everyone was stunned.

Patriarch Yang's face was also flushed, and he stared fiercely at Third Uncle Chu.

He did have a story with Ouyang Shan when he was young, and he did have a crush on Ouyang Shan, but Ouyang Shan didn't know about it.

Because of his own situation, and because he knew that he could not give Ouyang Shan happiness, he promptly cut off his love for Ouyang Shan.

After Ouyang Shan got married, he completely gave up.

As for never getting married, it wasn't all because of Ouyang Shan.
