Chapter 291: Plunder everything and bury everything!

Gu Lianshan couldn't beat her, so he had to go back to the house and tell his third uncle that Gu Tang and the other two should go to Gu Baoshan's house to watch the fun first and come back in about two quarters of an hour, so that the old man wouldn't be worried about not being able to find anyone.

The road in the village has been dug through. The narrow passage is like a goat path, connecting the village from one end to the other. There are many branches in the middle, connecting the courtyards and alleys on both sides of the main road.

Walking on the path, my steps became much easier, unlike in the morning when I was stumbling and taking one deep step and one shallow step.

When he was still a few feet away from Gu Baoshan's house, Gu Tang had already seen people fighting in the fenced yard of Gu Baoshan's house.

I could also hear foul language and curses, mixed with a few shrill cries from time to time.

Gu Tang moved his ears. Among the cries, there were those of Jiang's mother and daughter, Gu Baoshan, and two strange men and women. Judging from their cries, they should be Guan's parents.

When we arrived at the yard, we saw a group of people divided into two groups.

The men beat Gu Baoshan, and the aunts and sisters beat Jiang’s mother and daughter!

Clan leader Gu and the elders were entangled by Guan's parents. The old couple cried bitterly and even wanted to crash into their heads and die in Gu Baoshan's house.

This action startled the clan leader and elders, who hurriedly stopped the man.

If the old couple of the Guan family were to die here, the Gu and Guan clans would be at war to the death.

Patriarch Gu was extremely worried and was in a dilemma when he caught sight of Gu Lianshan out of the corner of his eye.

I was suddenly delighted!

Gu Lianshan is very eloquent and is best at persuading and coaxing people!

Thinking of this, Clan Leader Gu waved to let Gu Lianshan come over.

Gu Lianshan saw how the old couple of the Guan family were trying to commit suicide, sighed, and took Gu Tang and the others with him.

When they reached the corridor, Gu Lianshan asked Gu Tang and the other two to stand in the corner to avoid being bumped into by the noisy people in the yard.

After arranging the three people, Gu Lianshan wiped his face and shamelessly went to persuade the old couple of the Guan family.

They are in the wrong in this matter.

After all, those are two lives!

Who doesn't have a daughter? If their daughter ended up like this, who wouldn't be mad?!

Gu Lianshan understood the feelings of the Guan family elders very well, so he advised them accordingly:

"My daughter is gone. You can beat that bastard Gu Baoshan as you please. Beat him to death and bury him in a grave. It's no big deal!

Auntie, my sister had a miserable life! She never had good food or drink, and she never even wore good clothes.

Don't cry for now. While there is no one in the room, just go and look around, find some cloth, copper coins, etc., and make a burial garment for the mother and daughter.

Buy two more fine coffins and spend all the money in this house, leaving them nothing!"

These words touched the hearts of the old couple of the Guan family.

They didn't really want to die, they just wanted to force Patriarch Gu to stop interfering in Gu Baoshan's affairs.

Who would have thought that someone would come up with such an idea for them right now?

If you think about it carefully, this is a great idea. It can not only make you feel better, but also wipe out the assets of Gu Baoshan's family, leaving them with nothing.

The daughter of their Guan family died here, so Gu Baoshan will never be able to marry again in this life!

Guan's mother, He, wiped the tears from her face, got up swiftly from the ground, and called her husband, Grandpa Guan, into the house to help her.

Gu Lianshan took the opportunity to pass over a stone: "Use this to break the lock."

He glanced at it and didn't answer. Instead, she called her two sons and asked them to go to the kitchen to get a kitchen knife and smash all the pots and pans in the kitchen!

The son of the Guan family was tall and strong, and he listened to his mother, He, very much. He went to the kitchen without saying a word.

Then there was a series of banging sounds coming from the kitchen!

After a while, the noise stopped and the two sons of the Guan family came out with kitchen knives.

Afterwards, He took the two brothers and her husband to the house to search it!

After the Guan family entered the house, Patriarch Gu glared at Gu Lianshan and began to scold him in a low voice.

"I asked you to come here so that you could persuade them to stop making trouble, not to add fuel to the fire and instigate them to steal my house!"

"You really think highly of me!"

Gu Lianshan's eyes widened: "Their daughter and granddaughter all died here. Let them vent their anger first, then we can talk about it later.

Don't worry, the Guan family isn't stupid, no one will die, at most just broken arms and legs, they'll be fine after a few days of recuperation."

Patriarch Gu was extremely angry, but he could see no other solution.

There are two lives involved, and this cannot be explained away with just a few words.

You have to let people vent their anger.

Gu Lianshan approached the head of the Gu clan and asked in a low voice, "Have the Guan family members examined the mother and daughter?"

Clan leader Gu paused, then sighed heavily, "Both Guan's mother and daughter had injuries on their bodies. Jiang insisted that they were hit by the beams, but the Guan family felt that they were not hit, but rather beaten."

Gu Lianshan curled his lips: "You have to listen to Jiang's words in reverse."

Patriarch Gu sighed again. How could he not know?

He knows better than anyone!

That's why he didn't stop the Guan family from beating people up.

This is Shanghe Village, and the Gu clan has over a hundred members! If they weren't in the wrong, who would dare to cause trouble?

"Dad." Gu Tang suddenly came over and pointed at Gu Baoshan and the Jiang mother and daughter who were being beaten: "Both sides are bleeding. If they continue fighting, it will be too much."

If you want revenge, there are plenty of ways. Beating someone to death in public, wouldn't that just be handing the handle to your opponent?

Not worth it.

It’s really not worth it!

Hearing that blood was seen, Gu Lianshan and the clan leaders and elders all changed their expressions, and they hurried to the yard.

"Come off, come off! The person is already dead. Even if you beat him to death, he can't be brought back to life, right?"

"It's not worth sacrificing you for something like this! It's really not worth it!"

"We can just give him a beating to vent our anger, but we must not cause any deaths or make Gu Baoshan pay with silver for his sins!"

…

Gu Tang watched with great interest her father meddling in the matter. You know what, after her father said that, everyone actually calmed down.

There was a series of banging sounds in Gu Baoshan's house. Gu Tang stood by the window and looked inside curiously.

I saw He, her husband and two sons trying to pry open a box.

All the unlocked cabinets and boxes in the house were searched, and the clothes and shoes inside were all chopped into pieces with knives, leaving not a single intact item.

He's son was very strong and pried the box open in two or three moves, then took out a bag of copper coins from it.

Gu Tang took a few glances and saw that they were all strung together, with each string weighing about a hundred copper coins. This bag should weigh about two taels.

In addition to the copper coins, He also found a few pieces of silver in the box. Judging from their size, they probably weighed about three or five taels.

There were still a lot of good things in the box. Gu Tang leaned on the window and watched He empty the box. There were three brand new winter clothes. Judging from the color and size, they should belong to Gu Baoshan and Jiang's mother and daughter.

There were also two new quilts with bright red covers and the word "囍" embroidered on them with gold thread.

This is probably Gu Chuntao's dowry.

He was reluctant to cut up the winter clothes and quilts, so she picked up the winter clothes of Jiang's mother and daughter and put them aside, and asked her son to go out and call for help.

"Go and invite those aunts of yours in. Ask them to help your sister and niece clean their faces and change their clothes. Your sister and your niece must be able to set off in a respectable manner..."

When she said this, He's eyes turned red again and tears kept flowing.

Gu Tang could sense that He was truly sad, without a trace of adulteration or exaggeration.

For some reason, she felt a tightness in her chest.

There was still some cloth in the box. While crying, Mrs. He asked her husband to help her fold the cloth again.

She said, "Let our daughter take all this cloth with her and put it in her coffin. The same goes for this quilt. Let her be buried with it!"

When my daughter got married, I prepared four quilts for her, but within a year, that old hag took them away! It's just right, these two quilts will be a supplement for my daughter!"

Grandpa Guan nodded: "That's right!"

He handed the silver she had found to her husband and said, "Use this silver to buy two coffins. And the bag of copper coins on the ground, use it all to prepare for the funeral. Don't leave them a single cent!"

"Okay, I'll let our eldest son do it." After taking the silver, Grandpa Guan picked up the copper coins on the ground and turned around to go out to find his son.

He also followed him out of the house. She wanted to help carry the girl in the main room to the old man's bed in the east room!

Change the daughter's clothes right on the old immortal's bed, so that the old immortal can get some death energy so that she can die earlier and make amends to the daughter!

Gu Tang was still not satisfied. From these things, it can be seen that He must have the final say in the Guan family.

Old Master Guan and his six sons didn't dare to talk back to her, and just did whatever she said.

Just like the silver, copper coins, cloth, brand new winter clothes, brand new quilts and other items that were searched out, even wealthy families would be jealous of these things, and everyone would take the opportunity to take them away.

But He was not like that. She used the silver and copper coins to buy a coffin and funeral arrangements, and gave cloth, winter clothes, quilts and other things as burial objects for her daughter, without feeling any remorse at all.

Old Master Guan was even more outrageous. He agreed to whatever He said without changing his expression or saying anything else.

Gu Tang really admired him.

"Don't look anymore. It's almost time. We should go."

Agou suddenly came over and scared Gu Tang.

"Can you please call me from a distance?" Gu Tang rolled his eyes at him. "Are you trying to scare me to death by getting so close to me?"

"I lost my mind. I will not do this again next time." Agou admitted his mistake as usual and gave a promise.

Gu Tang didn't dwell on this point. She went over to tell her father and took Agou and Gu Ping'an back home.

My third uncle has changed his clothes and is waiting in the main room.

Hearing some noise coming from the gate, he stood up, opened the curtain at the door, and looked outside.

Seeing that it was Gu Tang and the other two, he felt relieved and asked them to go back to the house and change clothes.

"Master, am I going too?" Agou pointed at himself.

"Go! Your uncle said earlier that he would take you with him so that everyone can see him."

"Isn't that stealing the limelight from my cousin?" Gu Tang looked Agou up and down.

You know what, Agou now really behaves like a human being and seems to be able to coax people.

"What's the point? It's not like he married his first wife in a proper way when he was young. Now he's remarrying and he's already in his thirties, so how can he be so prominent?"

Third Uncle didn't take it seriously and told Agou to just change his clothes and follow him later.

Agou secretly glanced at Gu Tang and asked what she meant.

Gu Tang didn't care. Whether she went or not would not hinder her from enjoying the banquet.

This was Gu Tang's first time attending a banquet since he came here.

Although the boss was someone she didn't want to see, her father had given her a gift, so she had to go. Moreover, her father gave her a task, saying that she had to get it back with interest.

When it comes to eating, no one can compare to Agou. If he goes to a banquet, he can eat an entire table of food by himself!

You will definitely not lose money!

After changing clothes, led by Third Uncle, they took Gu Tang, Agou and Gu Ping'an to the end of the village.

Now that the road was dug through, even though it was still snowing, many villagers who had been cooped up for a few days came out to walk around, wrapped up like balls.

The destination of their movement was very clear, almost all of them were going to Gu Baoshan's house, and only a few people were going to Gu's house at the end of the village.

When Third Uncle brought Gu Tang and the others there, they saw a simple thatched hut that had been built in the Gu family yard at some point.

The frame is made of wooden sticks as thick as wrists, and the top is also made of wooden sticks to form a triangle, and a straw mat woven from wheat straw and grass is placed on it.

Such a thatched hut has no walls but only a roof. It cannot block the wind but can block the snow.

At this moment, some people have started setting up tables under the straw shed.

Gu Tang's heart skipped a beat, and he whispered to his uncle, "Grandpa, can't the banquet table be placed inside? It's too cold outside!"

"Who said it can't be placed in the house? Of course it can be placed in the house." Third Uncle glanced at the rooms and remembered that almost all the rooms in the Gu family had beds.

He said, "I guess there's no room for a table because there are beds in the house. Now it's in the straw shed. It looks bright and lively, but it's a little cold."

"It's more than just cold! When the food is served, it will get cold quickly!" This is the point. In the middle of winter, cold food is inedible.

Gu Tang's worry was completely unnecessary. She would soon realize that the cold food was not worth mentioning at all. There were other things waiting for her.

The four generations of grandparents and grandchildren randomly picked a table in the shed and sat down, chatting with the villagers while waiting for their food to be served.

Most of the villagers had never seen Agou, but they had all heard that there was such a noble man in the family of the third uncle.

Looking at the clothes on Agou, the person next to him moved to the other end of the bench.

Although they didn't know what material the clothes were made of, they were not stupid. If such clothes got dirty, they might not be able to compensate for it even if they sold their children!

While feeling anxious and uneasy, he couldn't help but be curious. Was this man, as the villagers said, the one who came forward to acknowledge Gu Lianshan as his uncle?

Everyone wanted to ask, but they were too timid to speak.

However, Agou and the others didn't dare to ask, but Gu Tang and the others could ask.

"Tang girl, what did you put on your little face? It looks like the snow on the ground! Give some to sister-in-law tomorrow so that she can look beautiful too."

Gu Tang smiled and looked at the person who was speaking. It was Yu, the wife of Gu Chengye from the south.

I don’t have any hobbies, but I like to ask people for things as soon as I open my mouth.
