Unlimited Resources: Raising a Minister with a Space Supermarket-Chapter 468 - 424: Pleading for Mercy

Cui Dacheng and a few others forcefully tried to drag Jiang Haifu off the kang, while a few from the Jiang Family attempted to stop them, but were too scared to move by Jiang Han’s large knife.

They recognized him as the one who killed old Mrs. Wang and then captured the entire Wang Zhanming family.

After Wang Zhanming’s family was taken away, they never returned to Taohua Village again. It was said that it was because Wang Zhanming stole something from the old Yu State king’s tomb. The rest of the Wang Family was implicated by Wang Zhanming, and none could escape either death or exile.

Thinking about the fate of the Wang Family, Jiang Dingcai’s legs trembled, and he couldn’t stand firmly.

Mrs. Lu kicked her husband in frustration, "What are you standing there for? Hurry to your big brother’s house, beg him, beg your nephew, ask them to plead with the Sun Family not to report."

"No, Haifu can’t just be dragged away like this. You two carry him as before and take him to the county town.

Your mother and I will go to your big brother’s house. Don’t worry, even if it costs me my life today, I won’t let my grandson die before I do." Jiang Laohan couldn’t understand how a joyful event of his grandson marrying could turn into a life-or-death situation.

Over here, Jiang Dingcai and his wife used wooden planks to lift Jiang Haifu again and followed Jiang Han and the others to the county government.

Meanwhile, Jiang Laohan and Jiang Laotai hurriedly pushed open the door of their eldest son’s house.

"Dingnian... something terrible has happened!!!" Jiang Laotai wailed as soon as he entered Jiang Mangzi’s house.

The Jiang Mangzi family was in the middle of eating. Today, they went out early to prune the peach trees in the mountain peach grove and returned to have breakfast after the sun came up.

Jiang Laohan’s voice arrived before he did, startling Sun Manxia. Such a thundering voice was hard to believe had come from a man in his sixties.

Jiang Haiqiu exchanged a glance with Sun Manxia, just as their grandparents, like startled wild horses, burst in from outside.

"Ah, you still have the heart to eat here? And such a big meal in the morning?" Jiang Laotai glanced at the white bread and white rice porridge on the table and became furious.

At home, she was eating coarse rice that wasn’t fully cleaned, while her eldest son was enjoying himself without a care, not even thinking about his parents.

Jiang Laohan pushed Jiang Laotai back, don’t you know why we’re here? Do you think we came to fight with the Zeng Family?

Jiang Laotai was silenced by her husband’s forceful tug.

At the time of Haiqiu’s marriage, she wanted to come over here, but her dead husband favored the younger son and grandson. Just look at this house, this food, what’s not good?

Now the younger grandson was involved in a life-threatening lawsuit, and she truly didn’t feel like caring anymore. Even if her younger grandson survived this death, future treatment for his leg would drain all their savings.

If it were up to her, she’d take their last savings to live with her eldest son. Though the Zeng Family was sharp-tongued, they had soft hearts. As long as she humbled herself a bit and coaxed them, everything would be alright.

While Jiang Laotai was mulling over these matters, Jiang Laohan had already quickly explained the whole situation to their eldest son.

Upon hearing that Jiang Haifu might lose his life, Jiang Mangzi’s rock-solid heart wavered. Jiang Haifu was his only nephew, and both he and his younger brother had thin lineages, each only had one son. If Jiang Haifu was gone, his younger brother’s line would end.

Jiang Mangzi had resolutely decided to cut ties with his parents and younger brother. At his most resentful, he even thought that when his parents died, he wouldn’t even perform the funeral rites.

But now, seeing his father nearly kneeling to plead with him, he suddenly felt his heart soften.

"Manxia, could you go home and mediate?" His daughter-in-law, Sun Manxia, was part of the fourth branch of the Sun Family, and Sun Manyue was her first cousin, making her the perfect candidate to mediate.

To his surprise, Sun Manxia, who’s always been respectful and attentive to her in-laws since marrying into the family, refused without hesitation.

Confronted with his elderly parents being outright rejected by his daughter-in-law, Jiang Mangzi felt a bit humiliated.

But when asking for someone’s help, you must have the proper attitude. His nephew Jiang Haifu committed such distasteful actions that were despised by everyone, so it was natural for his daughter-in-law to be angry and resentful.

Jiang Mangzi softened his normally rough voice, "Manxia, I know what Haifu did was infuriating, but he’s lost a tooth, and his leg is crippled. He has been punished. Please, can you go and plead on his behalf to save his life, just for the sake of your father-in-law asking you?"
