Master Ouyang didn't want to dwell on Gu Jin'an's matters and changed the subject: "Besides this, what else are you worried about?"
Scholar Shang was stunned and smiled wryly: "You can tell."
Master Ouyang nodded: "Go ahead."
Scholar Shang had no choice but to discuss Shang Laosi's situation: "This matter is likely to become public. Once it does, the reputation of the Shang family will inevitably be affected and people will talk about it for generations."
Rural folks love gossip, whether it's about good or bad things. As long as it's sensational, it will be passed down through generations.
Eventually, it will become a rural legend, and even a hundred years later, elders will mention: "Hey, the Shang Family once had some scandal many years ago."
Then, people who hear about it will cast curious or disdainful glances at the Shang Family. The impact is profound.
