The Hunter’s Lively Wife
Chapter 541 - Chapter 541 Chapter 541 Swearing by the Day

Chapter 541: Chapter 541: Swearing by the Day Chapter 541: Chapter 541: Swearing by the Day “Who told you? Say it, and then call them over, I will confront them face to face.” Su Yunjin, not having done anything, was unafraid, no matter who it was, she dared to have them called over for a face-to-face clarification.

The Magistrate was also unafraid of Mrs. Feng’s tricks and followed up with a question, “Someone told you? Mrs. Feng, who told you? Out with it, I’ll send someone to fetch that person right now.”

When Mrs. Feng heard the Magistrate was going to fetch someone.

She looked troubled, “Your Honor, it’s true what I said, and it’s not impossible for you to summon someone now for a confrontation, but it’s a bit troublesome.”

“Troublesome?” It seemed to the Magistrate that Mrs. Feng was clearly looking for a way to exonerate herself; at this juncture, Mrs. Feng was still unwilling to admit to what she had done.

The Magistrate was running out of patience.

“Mrs. Feng, unless you reveal the source of the rumors right now, this incident will be deemed slander against the third son’s wife, and I can punish you severely on the spot,” the Magistrate proclaimed angrily.

Mrs. Feng, frightened, felt a chill down her spine, daring not to conceal anything any longer and confessed everything about herself, “Your Honor, it went like this: I heard the rumor when I returned to my parents’ home, yes, my parents’ home is also located in the same area as that Su family. Now, in the Su family’s home village, everyone knows about the Su woman’s seduction of men. It was when I went back to my parents’ home that I heard about this.”

As the event unfolded, all the onlookers were taken aback, no one expected that it was not Mrs. Feng who originally spread the rumors about Su Yunjin seducing men, but someone from Su Yunjin’s own maternal village.

The matter was becoming more enigmatic, both Su Yunjin and the Magistrate exhibiting faces of shock, especially Su Yunjin.

The rumor had actually originated from her parental village.

What exactly was going on?

“Mrs. Feng, is this not another trickery of yours?” Mrs. Feng had always been cunning, and Gu Ya did not believe her words,

Feeling that it was very likely another trick by Mrs. Feng.

Gu Ya’s comment roused the Magistrate, “Mrs. Feng, if you continue with your deceptions in front of me, then punishment will not be as simple as just being severe; I’ll send you straight to the Governor’s Office, and let the Magistrate handle your case.”

Normally, when people in the village committed offenses, if the matter was minor, the Magistrate would settle it; if it became grave, then it was the County Magistrate who would deal with it.

The Magistrate’s usual discipline involved minor punishments as a major warning; but sending someone to the Governor’s Office meant they wouldn’t just be reprimanded; they could end up in jail.

When she heard that she might be sent to the County Magistrate.

Mrs. Feng was so frightened her face turned deathly pale, shaking her head repeatedly, “Your Honor, every word I’ve spoken is the truth, there’s no fabrication at all; if there’s even half a lie, I am at your disposal for punishment,”

Mrs. Feng declared vehemently.

Not at all appearing to be lying. Su Yunjin wondered if Mrs. Feng was indeed telling the truth? Were the rumors of her seducing men actually spread from the Su family village through Mrs. Feng’s mouth?

It seemed now she had no choice but to visit her parental home!

With Mrs. Feng swearing on her oath, the Magistrate tentatively believed her words, “Mrs. Feng, I will investigate this matter, and if what you said is indeed true, then so be it! But if there’s half a lie…”

“Absolutely no lies, absolutely no lies,” Mrs. Feng kept insisting.
