"who are they?"
Hearing the noise inside, Gong Rong also frowned.
The moment they were mentioned, Auntie flew into a rage and said angrily, "Don't mention it. They are from the Li family. Seeing that our main family was in chaos, they set their sights on the master and even wanted to take over our courtyard. They are a bunch of bandits who took advantage of the situation to rob us!"
"If the master's family hadn't been in chaos before, they wouldn't have had the guts to rob openly."
As she spoke, the aunt began to grit her teeth, and it was obvious that she was full of resentment towards this group of people.
"The Li family?"
Gong Rong's expression also turned cold. Although she had been away for a long time, she still had some memories of the Li family.
The Li family is a third-rate family in Longdu. They are quite powerful, but compared with the Gong family, there is a huge difference between them and they are not even worthy of carrying their shoes.
I didn't expect that the Gong family has fallen to this point. Even the Li family dares to be arrogant to the Gong family. Although his family is just a side branch, it is not something they can touch.
However, this also indirectly shows that the Gong family has lost its support. With the death of the head of the Gong family and several supreme elders, it is completely in chaos. Every force in Longdu is eyeing this piece of cake that is about to collapse, and they all want to get a piece of the pie.
At the same time, in the courtyard.
An old man with gray hair was shaking with anger. He picked up his walking stick and waved it towards the Li family members in front of him.
"All of you, get out of here! Get out of my house! You can't even think about getting my house or my assets!"
The old man's voice was loud and full of energy.
In the past, everyone in the Li family would have been scolded and fled, but things are different now. The Gong family is now in decline, not to mention that Gong Wuji is just a side branch.
The Li family did not dare to follow the main family's ideas. After all, several other big families were watching them. As for the head of a small side branch, who was an old man half buried in the ground, they would not be afraid and even laughed and mocked him.
"Gong Wuji, don't get too excited! You're an old man, and you still want to protect your family business? Without the support of the main family, do you really think you can continue to survive in Longdu? There are at least eighty people eyeing you, if not hundreds. I feel sorry for you and reluctantly give you five million in exchange for this courtyard house. Don't be ungrateful."
The young man from the Li family who was in the lead sneered and looked at the old man in front of him who couldn't even hold his cane steadily with a teasing look.
When had he ever been able to be so arrogant towards the Gong family? It was all thanks to the strong man who killed the head and elders of the Gong family. However, their Li family could not get a share of this good thing.
"Old man, Master Li is giving you face. You have one foot almost in the ground now, and five million is not a small amount."
"That's right, old man, don't say that we bullied you later. Sign the contract quickly, or you'll end up in trouble."
Several members of the Li family nearby also joined in the laughter, not paying any attention to the angry Gong Wuji.
"You...you bunch of beasts!"
Gong Wuji was so angry that his whole body was shaking, and he waved his crutches weakly, and was easily stopped by several people.
Several young people dodged and laughed as if they were playing with a toy.
“Cough cough cough…”
Gong Wuji was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood. His face turned pale and he lay powerless on the ground.
"Old man, stop pretending."
The leading young man raised his hand with a look of disgust, and sneered at the other party's angry eyes.
"You bastards!"
Just then, the aunt rushed over. When she saw the old man lying on the ground, she became furious and started to grab at the faces of several people with her claws and fangs.
