Du Kaibao saw Du Zhong again fell unconscious, his heart was also angry, what do you have to do? What are all my fault, are not all because of you? If not for your daily talk about these, I know what, now it's all my fault. And you're pretending to die. What's the use of pretending to die? Just pretend. I don't know what you want to do. Is it interesting for you to pretend to die every day? Is it my fault that everything happens? I'm just saying what you said in your normal life. But why is it my fault? Do you think it's fair or not fair?
As the crowd heard Du Kaibao say this, they all secretly shook their heads. Ah, to meet such a mischievous grandchild is really strange. It's not possible for the Du family not to decline. Who doesn't have unhappy moments? It's very normal to talk and vent at home during unhappy times. He didn't expect that his grandson would actually be able to express all the grievances he had spoken about at home. This is purely harming Old Du! The whole family of Old Du really can't close their eyes in peace. It seems that in the future, education of the descendants must be taken seriously, otherwise, we'll end up like Old Du's grandson, and our families will fall apart and everyone will perish!
Yuan Shoubing stepped forward and asked, "Master, what should we do with the Du family, Your Lordship? Please give the order, and we will carry it out immediately!"
Huang Tianci looked at his daughter Huang Ling'er and said, "What should we do with this matter? Father will listen to you, as this is their fault in offending my good son-in-law. So how should we deal with them? I will listen to all of you. Whatever you want to do with them, just go ahead!"
Huang Ling'er heard her father say this, and she looked at Mo Wenjie. "Dear husband, what do you think we should do with them? This matter originated with you, so we will follow your lead. You can decide how to deal with them as you wish; we have no objections. Whether it's life or death, it's all up to your word. You decide what to do!"
Mo Wenjie looked at everyone in attendance and said in a calm tone, "Today is a joyous day, and I don't want any unhappy events to occur. All the Du family should be arrested and placed in detention for further investigation. If they have not committed any illegal acts, they can be released. Those who have committed illegal acts, which are against the will of Heaven, will not be tolerated or spared. I make this decision without reservations. If you have any opinions or suggestions, feel free to speak up!"
Everyone, upon hearing what Mo Wenjie had to say, gave him a thumbs-up. It was no wonder that he had such a great qi yun. This was not an accident but a inevitability. He had such a broad chest and could encompass everything. Such a person would have an unlimited future prospects. Ah, Old Du's grandson is far away from people like the county master. The difference is like heaven and earth. It's too far apart to be comparable at all. This truly reflects the saying: "Man compared to man must die; goods compared to goods must be discarded." Just look at Old Du's grandson; how can he compare to the county master? Ah, in the future, we should educate our descendants to learn from people like the county master rather than mixing around with scoundrels every day. Otherwise, one day it will hurt oneself and also one's family as well. Education of children really cannot be ignored any longer; Old Du has become our warning example now that we've witnessed his downfall firsthand. We should seriously educate our descendants so they know what is right or wrong, who can stay together and who cannot be associated with, which is of utmost importance!
Huang Tianshi looked at Mo Wenjie and nodded silently, feeling very happy inside. This child has a kind-hearted personality, and his future prospects are boundless. My daughter has also found a good match. With such strength and a kind-hearted personality, how could he not achieve great things? The Blue River City definitely won't look down upon him! No matter what, as long as my daughter is happy and contented, other things don't matter much to me. As a parent, I only wish for my child's happiness, which is the most important thing to me. As for other matters, I really don't care that much. If my daughter holds a high position but leads an unhappy life every day, what would be the meaning? As long as the child is not happy, the parents cannot be happy either. So what if you are a city lord or even the emperor of the first realm? None of that really matters when you're not happy! Since Mo Wenjie has said so much, let's follow his lead by thoroughly investigating the Du family and releasing them if they have committed no crime worthy of punishment or harming others; if they have committed unforgivable acts such as oppressing people or abusing their power, they must be punished severely - no exceptions! We must never turn a blind eye to evil! Please ask your opinions on Mo Wenjie's decision among you; if any of you think there are injustices against Du Zhong or believe that he is innocent in this matter, feel free to say so! If you don't speak up now in private rather than later spreading rumors about it, I will treat it as disrespectful behavior and won't hesitate to show my displeasure!"
Everyone expressed their agreement, stating that Jun Ma is also kind-hearted and just. His handling of the matter is quite satisfactory to us. We have no objections at all. If the old uncle Du hasn't committed any illegal acts, he should be released; if he really has committed any illegal acts, then he should be arrested and punished as required by law. We have no issue with that. We will remember this as a cautionary tale in the future!
Du Zhong listened to what Huang Tianshi had said and was truly grateful. Tears streamed down his face at the moment. He expressed his heartfelt gratitude for the city lord's mercy, as well as the county master's generosity. The gratitude of the Du family towards the county master will be remembered for generations to come, never to be changed. This will be our ancestral rule, and anyone who does not abide by it or disrespects it will be banished from the Du family forever, never to return! As for Du Kaibao, this unruly son who bullies men and women, commits countless evil deeds - I, Du Zhong, will certainly act decisively against him and personally kill him!
Huang Tianshi looked at Du Zhong and said, "Regardless of what happened today, let's not dwell on it anymore. My son-in-law, Mo Wenjie, doesn't want to bring it up, so we won't pursue the matter any further. As for what should be done in the future, that's your responsibility. Please think carefully about it and give me a satisfactory response. I don't want such things to happen again in the future. If there are any more occurrences like this, regardless of where you are - whether at home or elsewhere - harboring resentment towards the city lord or His Majesty of the First Realm is not acceptable. I will not be lenient with you. Take care of yourself!"
Du Zhong listened to Huang Tianshi's words and knelt down, bowing his head like he was pounding garlic cloves. He pounded his head frantically until his forehead was broken. He repeatedly said thank you to the city lord for sparing his life, promising that he would definitely give a satisfactory answer, ensure there will be no similar incidents, and asked the city lord to rest assured. He said that no matter what, he would make it happen. If he couldn't fulfill his promise, he would rather commit suicide to atone for his sins without the city lord needing to take any action!
Du Kaibao was also so angry that his entire body was trembling. He pointed at Du Zhong, opened his mouth wide, but couldn't say anything.
