Chapter 217: Expel Them From the Clan Genealogy Book
“Chief, it was Brother Dog. He told us that An Jiuyue’s family has food, so we should steal some at night.”
An Feng was the first to speak to the Chief. He did not want to lie for An Gouzi anymore. After all, they did not steal anything and did not hurt An Jiuyue. The Chief would only punish them a little.
“Yes, it was Brother Dog.” An Hao also nodded and glanced at An Gouzi, still howling in pain.
“He initially told us to come to Jiuyue’s house with him to steal some food. However, when we arrived, he said he wanted to steal all the food. Not only that, but he also wanted to sell Jiuyue’s child to Ministry Councilor He.”
“We refused to do that. We don’t know what Brother Dog was thinking, but he agreed and said to only take Jiuyue’s food,” another man said to the Chief.
In any case, their words were disadvantageous to An Gouzi.
“Hmph!” The Chief snorted.
They don’t know what An Gouzi was thinking? I know! He must have thought of conveniently taking Jiuyue’s child along. It doesn’t matter if the others agreed or not!
Wow! To think he actually wants to learn from Old An and his family!
“It seems like it’s time for An Gouzi’s family to live in the straw shed,” he said faintly.
“What?!”
An Gouzi finally stopped howling when he heard the words “straw shed”.
He had only been howling to gain everyone’s sympathy. He did not expect the Chief to not only be unsympathetic but also decide to send him to live in the straw shed.
“No, I’m not going! I haven’t contracted the disease. I can’t stay in the straw shed!”
Old An’s family was in the straw shed. They had all contracted the disease and did not know when they would die.
What would happen to him if he went and contracted the disease? He was still young and did not want to die so early. He still had a lot of delicious food to eat and fun things to do.
“Chief, we can’t go to the straw shed. Old An’s family has contracted the disease. If we go, won’t we also be infected? We can’t go.”
Mrs. Jin was really panicking now. It would be better to starve to death in their own house than to go to the straw shed and contract the disease.
“If you don’t want to go to the straw shed, accept your punishment!”
The Junior Officer looked at the couple coldly.
The men who followed the Junior Officer over asked, “What’s the punishment?”
They had to be punished severely for doing this. Otherwise, they would not learn their lesson.
“Expel them from the clan genealogy book,” the Chief said straightforwardly.
“What?” everyone exclaimed.
They only wanted to steal some food. Is there a need to punish them so severely? Expelling them from the genealogy book is a serious punishment!
“Chief, you can’t do that! Although my son, An Feng, is in the wrong, he didn’t manage to steal the food in the end. Jiuyue, help us plead for mercy! This expulsion from the genealogy book is too serious. You can’t do this.”
The families looked at An Jiuyue, hoping she would plead for mercy.
As long as An Jiuyue spoke up, the Chief would definitely give her some face. After all, they wanted to steal An Jiuyue’s food.
An Jiuyue looked at the families in amusement.
