He Laoqiao thought of the tragic situation of He Cui'er's family after being expelled from the clan and finally became afraid: "This is my fault, big brother rest assured, there won't be a next time."
Village Chief He snorted coldly: "Even if there is a next time, it doesn't matter, I'll just open the ancestral hall and expel your whole family, saving me the trouble of bowing low to the Gu Family to apologize for your family."
He Laoqiao turned pale upon hearing this and hurriedly knelt down and said, "Big brother, please help my family, I truly recognize my mistake."
Village Chief He, seeing He Laoqiao kneel down, felt that he was truly remorseful and sighed: "Xiao Shisi, you used to be honest and upright, not one for trickery. What has come over you now? Have you turned bad just because the times have gotten better?"
He Laoqiao hung his head in shame.
