The Prime Minister Seduced Me to have Babies!-Chapter 297: Causing Trouble

Yun Jiao’s face darkened as she heard this, and she stood up and walked out.

Before she got close, the old woman’s eldest son raised his fist and charged at Yun Jiao, "You owe me my mother’s life!"

Lin Shuo stepped in front of Yun Jiao, reached out, and grabbed the eldest’s wrist, "Let’s talk this over, no violence."

The eldest tried to pull his hand back, but he couldn’t budge Lin Shuo’s grip, as if it was an iron clamp.

He was furious, "You Renxin Hall are bullying people too much!"

Yun Jiao said calmly, "Don’t rush, big brother, we haven’t figured things out yet."

"Just because your mother is gone, doesn’t mean it’s Renxin Hall’s fault."

"If it does turn out to be Renxin Hall’s fault, rest assured, I won’t shirk responsibility."

The younger brother tugged at his elder brother’s sleeve, "Bro, don’t be impulsive yet."

Then he whispered, "This guy is tough, even our family’s three brothers tied together aren’t his match."

With sharp ears, Lin Shuo heard the younger brother’s words and saw a hint of fear in the eldest’s face, so he slowly released his grip.

Yun Jiao had already crouched down to inspect the old woman on the door plank.

Ah Hu stood beside her, vigilantly watching the surroundings, ready to lash out at anyone who attempted to approach Yun Jiao.

Yun Jiao realized the old lady was already completely breathless and beyond saving.

The old woman was slightly open-mouthed, tongue sticking out a bit, her face dark purple.

Yun Jiao frowned, noting that she appeared to have suffocated to death.

Yet there weren’t any choke marks on the neck, so it might have been due to some medication causing suffocation.

She stood up, "The elderly lady suffocated to death."

No one knew what suffocation meant, the eldest pointed at Yun Jiao, "Don’t tell me all this, my mom died from taking your medicine."

"You have to pay for my mom’s life!"

Yun Jiao said calmly, "What’s happening here, neither you nor I can dictate."

She cast a glance at the rest, estimating they were the old woman’s sons and daughters-in-law, "How about this, if you trust me, we’ll solve this here."

"If you don’t trust me, we’ll carry Auntie to the government office to settle it."

"What do you all think?"

Yun Jiao took the initiative to suggest going to the government office, while the eldest, second, and third brothers exchanged glances.

The three gathered together, heads touching as they discussed, "What do we do? Go to the government office or not?"

The eldest hesitated, "Maybe we shouldn’t, isn’t Doctor Gu familiar with the Prince Mansion? If we really go to the government office, who knows which side the officials will take."

The second also nodded, "I think we shouldn’t go to the government office, there are so many people here, inside and out. If she doesn’t give us a satisfying answer today, she can forget about running her shop in the future."

The third whispered, "Actually, even going to the government office might not award much silver, last time the one run over by a cart only got twenty taels. Privately settling this, we can still ask for more silver."

The three quickly made their decision.

The eldest said, "There’s no need to go to the government office, let’s clear it up here."

Yun Jiao nodded firmly, "Alright, everyone here is a witness, we’ll emulate an official investigating the case today and step by step, clear things up."

Not only were there customers queuing, but also crowds gathered to watch the commotion, completely blocking Renxin Hall.

Inside, amidst them, Mrs. Chen Guihua and others had long come out and stood anxiously at the back door.
