Gu Mei suddenly opened her eyes and looked at the crowd. She looked around and quickly found Gu Yunjiao. She looked at her pleadingly and shouted sternly, "Sister, save me."

"Sister, please help me... I don't want to die..."

She didn't want to die, and she didn't want to be soaked in a pig cage. She had heard that people who were soaked in a pig cage could not be reincarnated when they died.

When she died this time, she really died and would not be reborn again!

She will be blown away!

Gu Yunjiao was shaking all over, she even heard the rattling of her teeth.

She had never seen such a savage scene, where people were stripped naked like beasts and put into cages.

Chen shi hugged her hard, wanting to give her some comfort, but also for fear that she would run out impulsive.

Gu Yunjiao looked at the desperate Gu Mei in the bamboo cage, she was only sixteen years old.

Even if she did something wrong, she didn't die.

At this moment, Gu Yunjiao's mind was in chaos. Those memories she had received were not pure memories, but accompanied by various emotions.

Before Chongxi, Gu Mei was a pretty good sister in her memory.

The sisters also had countless tender moments.

There was no way she could completely separate memory from emotion.

She decided to try and save her.

As for the outcome, she didn't think about it, she just did what she wanted.

Gu Yunjiao suddenly broke free from the Chen family and strode forward. She walked up to Zhao Lizheng and said softly, "Uncle Lizheng, I want to beg you to let my sister go."

Zhao Lizheng glanced at Gu Yunjiao indifferently, "Impossible."

"Since ancient times, people who commit adultery are caught in a pig cage."

Gu Yunjiao bit her lip, "I know this request is difficult for a strong man."

"She made a mistake, and she should be punished no matter how."

"But there is no way. She is my blood-connected sister, and I have to save her."

"As long as you can let her go, whatever conditions you have, just say, I'll see if I can do it."

Zhao Lizheng fell silent.

He looked at Gu Yunjiao for a long time before slowly saying: "It's not that I have any conditions, but what are you planning to use in exchange for her life."

Hearing this, Gu Yunjiao clenched her fists, which meant there was hope.

She lowered her head and thought for a while, then said softly, "I have two options, Uncle Lizheng can choose any one."

She said slowly: "First, I will pay five hundred taels of silver to buy Gu Mei's life."

When Zhao Lizheng heard the five hundred taels of silver, his pupils dilated sharply, but in just a moment, he calmed down.

Five hundred taels, according to the current market, can buy 100 acres of land.

His family only has more than 100 acres of land, which is equivalent to their entire family property.

Hearing this number, Zhao Lizheng couldn't help but be moved.

He didn't expect Gu Yunjiao, a little girl, to have such a big hand.

Gu Yunjiao continued: "Uncle Lizheng, the second plan is that I make a promise to you that during my lifetime, your Zhao family can let me do something within my ability."

"As long as Gu Yunjiao can do it, I will definitely try my best to do it."

Gu Yunjiao knew very well that Gu Mei was worth so much in her heart. If it really hurt her own interests, then she would have to give up.

With the medicine store in place, five hundred taels is nothing to her. As for a promise, it is up to her to decide whether it can be fulfilled or not.

Zhao Lizheng didn't speak, he closed his eyes and thought for a while before he said, "I have to discuss this matter with Lock Zhu."

"The purpose of soaking the pig cage is to let my son vent his anger. If he doesn't want to, then there is nothing I can do."

Zhao Lizheng glanced around and said solemnly, "Zuozhu, come in with me, I have something to say."

Lock Zhu was staring blankly at Gu Mei on the ground.

Hearing his father's shout, he turned around and walked over.

Gu Yunjiao walked a few steps quickly, met him, and begged softly, "Brother-in-law, please leave a way for Gu Mei to live?"

Lock Zhu clenched his fists, paused in his footsteps, and followed Zhao Lizheng to the ancestral hall without saying a word.
