What angered Village Chief He the most was that after the Mo Family sold themselves into servitude to the Lu Family, they could simply return to the village; as if his earlier pronouncement forbidding their entry was a mere joke. He felt like he had been slapped in the face by the Lu Family.
"Mo Family sold themselves to the Lu Family?" Gu Jin'an was a bit surprised, then sneered sarcastically: "This is indeed something their family would do. It's just that they don't need to sell themselves at all."
"Exactly, I said I would go to the county government to annul Mo Family's household registration, but I haven't done it yet. If they had any sense, they should take this time to go to nearby destitute villages and give a little silver to the villagers to allow them to settle in. Once settled, if they work hard, they could have made a living. But they refused, and now the whole family has sold themselves to the Lu Family."
