She didn't want this to happen.

After staying in the hospital for a few more days, Gu Hanping had no other choice.

The doctor said the fever has subsided, and as for the intellectual disability, it depends on his own recovery.

The family returned by oxcart. The people of Hongqi Brigade saw Gu Hansheng on the oxcart but didn't notice him at first.

Later, they discovered that Gu Hansheng seemed to have gone mad.

When this news spread, everyone in the Red Flag Brigade was stunned and didn't know what to say.

Some people even spread the rumor, and it eventually became a public statement.

"This is the consequence of abandoning your own children and only caring about other people's children."

"Exactly, abusing one's own daughter just to support another man's son. Isn't that stupid?"

"No wonder he turned into an idiot."

But the fool's life is about to go wrong.

Gu Yunyang was ready to leave, but since Gu Hanping and Gu Hansheng had returned, he didn't leave immediately.

Gu Hanping hadn't originally planned to have Gu Yunyang and the others come.

Given Gu Hansheng's condition, Ning An should take care of him.

As for food, he can just bring a bowl from home for Gu Hansheng.

But Ning An insisted on calling over her daughters and sons, and said in front of the clan elders: "No matter what, we are your parents. We gave birth to you, and that's why you are alive."

Now that your father has run into trouble, you all need to contribute money and effort to support us in our old age.

Gu Yunyang felt embarrassed for her shameless face.

Unfortunately, Ning An was a shameless person to begin with.

She said to the elders with a straight face, "This is the rule of our Gu family. Where is it that a son will not support his parents in their old age?"

Gu Honghe was also called over today. More courageous than the other sisters, she immediately said, "Then you should act like parents. If the father is unkind, the son will run away to another place. Why should we support you?"

The elders were also in a dilemma. Gu Hansheng and Ning An had been doing a poor job, causing the children to become disloyal.

They couldn't ask too much of Gu Yunyang and the others.

However, if Gu Yunyang and the others don't support their elders in old age, then once this precedent is set, all the younger generations in the clan will follow suit.

That would spoil the atmosphere.

Gu Honglan and the others stood beside Gu Honghe; it wasn't that they were truly unwilling to pay.

They simply wanted to express their thoughts and their dissatisfaction with Gu Hansheng and Ning An.

For so many years, they have been in a position of being exploited.

Finally, one day, they too had to express their dissatisfaction.

Several clan elders were also troubled and looked at Gu Hanping.

Gu Hanping was also at a loss for words, unsure of what to say.

So an elder asked, "Secretary Gu, or rather, Secretary Gu, we will always remember the phone call you gave to our Red Flag Brigade."

Gu Yunyang didn't seem reluctant at all when he came today.

He stood there calmly, as if he were detached from the situation, like a bystander.

But Gu Yunyang is the son, and he is the central figure in this matter.

Gu Yunyang waved his hand: "No need for that. Those in positions of authority should fulfill their responsibilities. Besides, I am no longer the brigade secretary of the Red Flag Brigade."

"Once you become the Party Secretary, you are our Party Secretary."

An elder of the clan said excitedly, "How can we not be grateful for the benefits you have brought us? Not only us, but our descendants will also have their own page in the family genealogy."

Good heavens, Gu Yunyang thought, is this enough to warrant a separate page in the family tree?

But the elder continued, "Our Gu clan has always valued filial piety. Although we all feel it's a great pity and regret your passing, you see, regarding filial piety..."

Gu Yunyang found it amusing; these people were quite tactful.

He nodded and watched the clan elders perform.
