The villagers who were present had an animated discussion. Most of them were uneducated. Everything they knew about the law and how powerful the Xia family was told to them by the Zhao family members. None of them saw anything with their own eyes and there was no real proof.
When they heard Qian'e say that they would all die, all of them became afraid. After all, Qian'e was rich and they were really poor! They still had children to take care of!
"Village Chief… is what she said true?" one of the villagers asked fearfully.
Before Zhao Kuo could speak, Qian'e immediately shouted, "Do you still believe in the Zhao family members now! Look at what they've asked you to do! When you worked with us, all of you earned money! But now? Some families have been broken up and some families can't even afford to eat! I hear that you still need to bring up your children! Do you still believe in the Zhao family members?"
