"Did he make things difficult for you?"

Zhou Le walked closer and asked.

The two men hadn't spoken loudly, but even though he couldn't hear them, he could still sense Gu Jiansheng's rejection and the middle-aged man's malice.

After Zhou Shusheng met Gu Jiansheng several times, his initial awkwardness and fear faded, and he became more enthusiastic, obediently calling out "Brother" as soon as he saw him.

Gu Jiansheng, who was about to glare at her, subconsciously restrained himself upon hearing this obedient call.

He lowered his eyelashes and walked forward on his own.

Anyway, this matter has nothing to do with Zhou Lexing.

As long as Zhou Lexing doesn't mess with him, he's not the type to be intolerant of even one person.

As for whether or not to take advantage of Zhou Lexing's inexplicable enthusiasm for him to plant a seed of future disintegration of He Huaizhi's power, Gu Jiansheng had not yet decided.

Zhou Lexing naturally followed beside him: "Do you need my help? Come to think of it, I'm the village's ringleader."

At this point, Zhou Lexing chuckled, though it was a chuckle born of hardship.

Earlier, Zhou Lexing had chatted with Zhou Lihua and Aunt Zhou in the fields, and only then did he realize that the original owner was such a 'genius' person. The dirty tricks he came up with were truly unmatched. Things like throwing firecrackers into the latrine to blow up the excrement, or stealing the wine from the house of someone he didn't get along with to feed the pig. The pig didn't move all day, scaring the person who thought the pig was going to die, and they cried a lot.

There are too many dirty tricks he's used to pull, so it's no wonder the villagers have a problem with him.

If it weren't for the fact that the original man was strong, had learned a few tricks from his father, was fast, and that Zhou Yuanxiang had protected him by contributing money and effort, he would probably have been beaten to death by the villagers by now.

Gu Jiansheng glanced at him, unable to discern whether Zhou Lexing's words were a veiled threat, and simply said coldly, "No need."

He had already figured out what to do about Zhou Dongqiang's fate.

Zhou Lexing looked at him for a while and saw that he was still very resistant to him. After thinking for a moment, he didn't insist: "Okay, you can come to me if you need anything."

After he finished speaking, he led Zhou Shusheng away decisively. This unexpectedly made Gu Jiansheng take a second look at his back. After realizing what he was doing, Gu Jiansheng twitched the corner of his mouth.

What is he thinking?

Aside from those twisted perverts who were drawn to him, this reaction is normal; no one has an obligation to help a guy who's always giving them the cold shoulder.

Zhou Lexing didn't think much of it and led Zhou Shusheng to Hutouxi.

This time, they were quite familiar with the place, so the two rolled up their trousers and went inside to have some fun. They didn't return home until noon, completely satisfied.

The midday sun was too strong, and there weren't many people walking on the road.

Zhou Lexing was now much more familiar with the village and knew that the path he had taken to take Gu Jiansheng home last time was faster than the compacted dirt road in the middle of the village. So he led his hungry younger brother around Gu Jiansheng's house.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Lexing saw the middle-aged man who had spoken to Gu Jiansheng that morning loitering near Gu Jiansheng's house from afar, occasionally peeking through the door or hopping on tiptoe to try and see inside.

These days, village walls aren't built very high, since soil costs money. Nowadays, families are generally better off, but in the past, there were times when families were so poor they didn't even have a mouse. Naturally, they wouldn't bother to raise the walls. This, however, makes it easier for middle-aged men to see inside the house.

He grinned, revealing his disgusting yellow and black teeth, then glanced furtively around, clearly up to no good.

Zhou Lexing frowned, quickly stopped Zhou Shusheng who was rushing forward, and led him to the wall to the side.

"Shhh."

Zhou Lexing mysteriously placed his index finger on his lips.

Zhou Shusheng blinked, thinking his brother was playing with him, and put his finger to his lips, making a strange, inappropriate shushing sound.

Zhou Lexing was finally satisfied. He peeked out again and just happened to see the middle-aged man walk around to the side of the house, facing him diagonally to the side, and he was about to climb the wall.

Damn it! In broad daylight, they dared to steal from the house of someone he was protecting!

Without the slightest hesitation, Zhou Lexing rushed forward, creating a gust of wind, and in the blink of an eye, he was behind the middle-aged man. He grabbed the man by the back and yanked him off the wall.

Zhou Dongqiang: "?!"

Zhou Dongqiang was startled. His feet had barely touched the ground when he was punched in the temple. He didn't even have time to groan before he passed out.

Zhou Lexing gave a cold laugh, hoisted the man onto his shoulder, and then waved to Zhou Shusheng, who was standing there dumbfounded with his mouth agape.

Although Zhou Shusheng was intimidated, when his brother called him, he still followed Zhou Lexing obediently, and the two left quietly.

Inside the house, Gu Jiansheng was standing in the courtyard, and he naturally saw Zhou Dongqiang peeking around.

He held a kitchen knife in one hand behind his back, and his house was behind him.

Gu Jiansheng had already thought it through very clearly.

If he couldn't kill the man with one blow, he would immediately run into the house and step over the rope tied behind the threshold.

Most people don't take big steps when crossing a threshold, and they don't expect there to be another hurdle behind it.

Given Zhou Dongqiang's personality, he would definitely chase after him if provoked.

As long as he chases, he will definitely fall down. Even if Gu Jiansheng can't cut off Zhou Dongqiang's head with one stroke, he can at least bleed his neck.

Who told Zhou Dongqiang not only to seize his family's land, but also to try to sexually assault him?

Based on Gu Jiansheng's previous experience of being reborn, he should have been sent to the city at this time because of his suicide attempt, and locked up under the guise of recuperation to temporarily escape Zhou Dongqiang's harassment.

At that time, Gu Jiansheng had no idea that the idea of ​​locking him in the storage room like a pig or dog to be slaughtered for the rest of his life was his own mother's idea.

He overheard his uncle and cousin's conversation and was terrified. He seized an opportunity to escape from his uncle's house and tried to run back to the countryside, but unexpectedly ran into He Huaizhi.

At that time, He Huaizhi had angered the local tyrant because of his speculation and was about to lay low. So he put on a gentle and refined gentlemanly demeanor and followed him back to the countryside under the guise of escorting him.

Later, He Huaizhi treated him as his possession and wanted to teach him a lesson. He even used Zhou Dongqiang to disgust him and staged a fake "hero saves the beauty" scene.

Throughout his life, Gu Jiansheng vowed to nip all potential threats in the bud!

Gu Jiansheng thought of the old grudges from his past life, and his body couldn't help but tremble slightly with hatred and excitement, but his hand holding the kitchen knife remained motionless.

Just then, Gu Jiansheng saw Zhou Dongqiang clinging to the wall, peeking out from the top. He couldn't help but feel a surge of anger, but before he could even engage, Zhou Dongqiang suddenly shrunk down and disappeared.

Gu Jiansheng: "...?"

Zhou Lexing carried the unconscious Zhou Dongqiang to the public toilet at the end of the village.

A few years ago, there were only two dry toilets at the beginning and end of the village. Now that everyone's living conditions have improved, some families have installed their own toilets at home, but that is still rare. Usually, people like Zhou Lexing's family use a chamber pot and empty it in the public toilet in the morning and evening, or take it with them when they pass by the village entrance to empty the night soil. If all else fails, they just keep it for their own use, like their neighbors.

Zhou Yuanxiang is hardworking and a bit of a clean freak. Everyone in the family is influenced by her, not to mention Zhou Lexing, who grew up in the era of fully automatic toilets and cannot accept the act of leaving feces to grow into fertilizer.

But that doesn't mean there's no one at the public toilets. People tending the fields in the morning all need to use these toilets. It's just that it's midday now, and there aren't many people around in the village, let alone at the public toilets at the end of the village. It's the closest and most suitable place for them to do bad things.

Zhou Lexing first coaxed Zhou Shusheng to stand guard outside, also to prevent Zhou Shusheng from being frightened by his brother's other side.

He found a relatively clean spot to stand, casually threw Zhou Dongqiang to the ground, picked up a ladle from a nearby wooden bucket, scooped up a ladleful, and poured it directly over Zhou Dongqiang's head.

Seeing that Zhou Dongqiang was still unconscious, Zhou Lexing gave a cold laugh and slapped him across the face.

He only used 30% of his strength in that slap, but it was enough to wake Zhou Dongqiang up in a daze, and half of his face quickly turned red and swollen.

"Who...who are you?" Zhou Dongqiang had barely uttered the question when his eyes widened immediately. "You're Zhou Yuanxiang's son?!"

Zhou Lexing did not respond. He stood in front of Zhou Dongqiang, coldly stepping on the other man's hand that was supporting him on the ground.

This kick immediately made Zhou Dongqiang yell and scream, but no matter how hard he pushed, he couldn't get rid of the foot that was firmly pressing down on his hand.

"Now it's my turn to ask questions and you answer."

At first, Zhou Lexing thought the man was a thief, but then he realized something was wrong.

Zhou Dongqiang peeked around outside the door to make sure he knew what was going on before climbing the wall.

Nowadays, rural houses, regardless of size, all have a yard. Some are open, while others are enclosed within walls along with the house. The latter type is more common in Zhoujia Village.

Regardless of the reason, Zhou Dongqiang's peeking around wouldn't allow him to see inside the room. Rather than confirming whether anyone was inside, Zhou Dongqiang's actions seemed more like he was certain there were people outside before climbing over the wall to get inside.

When Zhou Lexing thought of this, he recalled Zhou Dongqiang's malicious look towards Gu Jiansheng, and a surge of anger rose in his heart.

"What are you trying to do by climbing over Gu Jiansheng's wall?"

Zhou Dongqiang was already sweating profusely from the pain, his mind was still foggy, and he couldn't hold back his mouth, so he started cursing.

"I curse your ancestors for eighteen generations! You dare mess with your Uncle Dong? You son of a bitch..."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Lexing didn't hold back and kicked Zhou Dongqiang in the shoulder.

Zhou Dongqiang immediately fell to the ground, the impact of which broke the wooden plank supporting the latrine behind him.

Zhou Dongqiang was in so much pain that he couldn't get up. Half of his body was lying on the latrine. He didn't care about the dirt on his only remaining hand and quickly clung to the edge of the latrine. The stench made him more alert, and he hurriedly begged for mercy: "No, no, no! It was my fault for being so talkative. Please pull me up!"

Zhou Lexing stood to the side, stepping on one of his legs, and asked the same question: "What were you doing climbing Gu Jiansheng's wall?"

Zhou Dongqiang's eyes darted around, sweat dripping down his forehead. Knowing that this kid was going to stand up for Gu Jiansheng, he didn't dare to tell the truth: "His mother invited me in to catch up!"

No wonder Zhou Yuanxiang said that there's always trouble around a widow's door. Even this scumbag, when he spews filth, instinctively wants to pick on someone easy to bully.

Zhou Lexing looked at him coldly: "I'm giving you one last chance. If you don't tell the truth, I'll send you down to have a good meal."

He also learned a lot about Gu Jiansheng's family situation from Zhou Yuanxiang.

According to his mother, Gu Jiansheng's personality was just like Aunt Lan's.

To avoid trouble, Aunt Lan and her family rarely left their home. Growing up in such an environment, the children naturally became quiet, reserved, and timid.

How could someone who rarely leaves the house and values ​​his reputation so much have a relationship with such a despicable person?

Moreover, this person looks shifty and doesn't look like a good person at all. Aunt Lan isn't stupid; how could she possibly associate with someone like that?

Besides, judging from the way Zhou Dongqiang flirted with Gu Jiansheng this morning, Zhou Lexing knew with his eyes closed that he was targeting Gu Jiansheng.

Zhou Dongqiang's arms, gripping the edge of the latrine, trembled uncontrollably, but he still dared not change his story: "It's true, it's true! I'm his mother's cousin! Our two families are related! They even want to rent or sell their land to me!"
