The woman had barely finished speaking when the villagers began to accuse Forensic Doctor Zeng one after another.
"This man must be crazy, thinking of borrowing silver to go to Jianan City to attend the autumn imperial examination, he's shamed all of us from Wan County."
"Exactly, if his family doesn't have the means, he shouldn't shame himself like this. Do his neighbors really deserve to owe him something? If it were me, I wouldn't lend him anything. He should be driven out directly, he's such a disgrace to his parents."
"To cause so much trouble over such a trivial matter, he's utterly conscienceless. Even beheading him a hundred times wouldn't quell the hatred in our hearts!"
"To bring up such shameful events, it's utterly mortifying!"
"You, what do you all know?!"
Upon hearing the villagers' words, Ms. Nie was so infuriated that she tried to stand up and curse at them, but she was pushed back down by the guard.
"Kneel down!"
"I'll kneel, just take your hands off me."
