"Aunt, what you just said is truly chilling. What do you mean, 'it's not like anything happened to us'? Were you hoping something would?" Wei Jinxiu said angrily.
"That's not what I meant… Of course, Jinyi was in the wrong, and I will definitely punish her. But, seeing as nothing serious happened to you, can't you let her off this once?" Seeing everyone looking at her with condemning eyes, Lady Xu felt the pressure and was forced to change her tune.
"If Cousin-in-law Wan'er hadn't been quick-witted and hidden with me in time, Wei Jinyi would have been responsible for two deaths!" Wei Jinxiu retorted loudly. "Wei Jinyi brought strange men into the estate to try and ruin our reputations. In my opinion, even drowning her in a pig cage wouldn't be going too far!"
Lady Xu's face turned white when she heard the words "drowning in a pig cage." "Y-you, you little brat, stop being so alarmist! How could it be that serious?"
