In order to clarify the truth,
a group of people escorted Gu Changshun back to the Gu Family residence.
It was the busy farming season, and every household had rice that needed harvesting. Though every family was preoccupied, some who enjoyed a spectacle still followed Su Yunjin and the others to the Gu Family's place, eager to see the excitement and whether Gu Changshun truly harbored indecent thoughts towards his aunt by marriage.
Gu Changshun was unwilling to go back and even less keen to confront the situation, but he was bound tightly with rope by Gu Ya and dragged along.
He had no choice but to comply.
During this, Mrs. Zhang tried to approach and untie the ropes from her son Gu Changshun, but she was repeatedly rebuffed by Gu Ya.
He said he wouldn't release Gu Changshun until the matter had been thoroughly investigated.
Frustrated, Mrs. Zhang gritted her teeth and hurled a string of curses at Gu Ya.
