Chapter 300 will be revised later

The crowd surrounded Gu Baoshan's yard so tightly that no one could get in or out. The buzzing noise was so loud that it gave people a headache.

The hour of noon was approaching, and the people carrying the coffin stood around the coffin, bent down and put the wood tied to the coffin on their shoulders.

When the witch Liu said, "Get up—"

Then the coffins were lifted up, Guan's coffin went first, and Gu Dani's coffin followed closely behind.

Gu Baoshan’s family cemetery is in the south. Just go south from the alley in front and go straight.

The snow on the road had been cleared in advance, making it much easier to walk on.

As soon as the coffin left the yard, the "filial sons and grandsons" began to cry and send it off on the roadside.

This is the "filial son and virtuous grandson" that the Guan family spent a lot of money to invite.

According to seniority, Guan is their cousin, so it is appropriate for them to play the role of filial sons and grandsons.

In addition to the filial sons and grandsons who cried and saw them off, Jiang's mother and son and two others also followed. Although they did not cry, the mourning clothes they wore were very eye-catching.

The villagers pointed and talked, all knowing what was going on. Some cursed the Guan family inwardly, saying that they deserved it, but others thought that the Guan family was going too far.

Your Guan family's daughter died, it was bad luck, why do you have to blame it on your mother-in-law and husband?

Even if the mother-in-law and husband did something wrong, a few quarrels would be enough. Why would you force your husband, mother-in-law and sister-in-law to wear mourning clothes?

The person mumbling softly was a middle-aged woman who was so thin that she looked unrecognizable.

As soon as these words came out, everyone around the woman turned around and looked at her.

After recognizing who it was, everyone curled their lips and rolled their eyes at her.

I was wondering who said this, it turned out to be Gu Lao Luo's wife, Jin.

It's no wonder that Jin said that. Two of her three daughters-in-law were forced to death by her, and the families of those two daughters-in-law are all cowards!

After running over and yelling for a while, the matter was left unresolved.

It's not uncommon for such people to say such things.

Everyone ignored her and just kept saying that the Guan family loved their daughter.

"The Guan family is really generous! I heard that the coffin cost several taels of silver each! Two coffins must have cost a lot of silver!"

"Who says it's not? And what about these paper-made people and horses, courtyards and houses, mountains of gold and silver, etc.? Who would be so willing to give them away?"

"Even when the young mistress of Landlord Luo's family was buried three years ago, she didn't have the glory that Guan's family has today!"

…

Jin's face darkened as she listened to the neighbors constantly praising the Guan family.

She pursed her lips, squeezed out of the crowd, and walked home cursing.

Jin lived in the north, and to go home, she had to pass through the alley east of Gu's house at the end of the village.

Follow the dug-out narrow path into the alley, and the yard on the left is the Gu family.

At this moment, a burst of shouting and cursing suddenly rang out in the yard:

"Gu Liansheng! I'm going to report you to the police!!! Your Gu family actually raised a thief! Hurry up! Get that despicable girl of yours out here! She stole my silver jewelry, make her hand it over!"

Hearing this, Jin stopped immediately, her eyes flashing slightly.

The voice was unfamiliar to me. It must be Qian, who had just come into the house a few days ago.

From what he said, it seems that Qian's things were lost, and the thief was Master Tongsheng's sister Gu Zhier?

When did this Gu Zhier come? Why haven't I heard anyone mention her?

The more Jin thought about it, the more itchy she felt. She immediately turned around and walked next door.

Gu Liansheng was a little overwhelmed at this time.

Originally, I thought of hiding it from Gu Zhier and not letting her know that Qian had come in. I was afraid that she would turn her back on me and refuse to stay and serve the old man and the old lady.

Qian knew Gu Liansheng's intention. She didn't want to serve those two old men anyway. Gu Liansheng's approach was exactly what she wanted, and she was happy to cooperate. She kept avoiding Gu Zhier, and everything was fine on the first day.

But there was a new living person in the house, and no matter how careless Gu Zhier was, it was impossible for her not to notice it at all.

Not to mention anything else, even the daily food and drink quantities are not right.

Every time he cooks, Gu Liansheng would ask to cook more. He has a good appetite recently and his food intake has been increasing.

This would not have been a big deal, but Gu Liansheng still had to share the food at every meal.

After distributing the food, he took enough food for two people and went back to his own room to eat.

Gu Liansheng had done this before, but that was because he had a special meal and he had to do so in order to prevent the people in the second house from finding out.

Now that the second wife's family has all been adopted, there are only the first wife's family left at home, so there is no need to hide anymore.

Besides, the food we had these past two days wasn’t very good either, it was just some porridge and pickled vegetables.

What's there to hide?

Gu Zhier realized that something was wrong. When Gu Liansheng brought the food to the east wing again, she rushed forward to push open the door and saw Qian.

Gu Zhier had previously gone with Gu Liansheng to meet Qian, so she naturally recognized her now.

An idea suddenly popped up in her mind. She thought that Qian was shameless and took the initiative to come to Gu Liansheng to seduce him.

Gu Zhier's face turned dark on the spot.

Fortunately, Gu Liansheng quickly explained to her that Qian had married into the family early, and told her not to think too much about it.

Gu Zhier didn't believe what Gu Liansheng said, so she turned around and went to the west room to ask the old man.

When the old man saw that the matter was discovered, he simply told the truth and said that Qian didn't want to serve them, so he had to call Gu Zhier back to serve them.

Hearing this, Gu Zhier burst into tears. This time she was really sad.

The new daughter-in-law didn't want to serve, so she asked others to serve her herself, but she never thought about it carefully. At the Wang family, she had a mother-in-law to serve, and children and a man to take care of.

It would have been fine if her eldest brother had lied to her, but she didn't expect that her parents would also follow suit and lie to her.

The more Gu Zhier thought about it, the angrier she became. She sat in the west room and cried bitterly. Old Master Gu lost his patience and started scolding her.

Now Gu Zhier was even more sad, and her filial piety faded. She was no longer as attentive in serving him, and insisted on asking Qian to serve him too.

Qian was naturally unwilling. The aunt and sister-in-law had a fight last night and another fight this morning.

With Gu Liansheng's help and Old Man Gu's side, the Qian family always had the upper hand and could be said to have suppressed Gu Zhier's scolding.

Take this morning for example, before Gu Zhier could even curse, Gu Liansheng came out to protect her, and Old Master Gu also told her to stop making trouble.

As for Qian, she did not stop while she was ahead, but took the opportunity to point at Gu Zhier and scold her harshly.

After the quarrel, Qian went to the outhouse in the backyard. Gu Zhier, who was so angry that she lost her mind, took out a pair of scissors and rushed into the east wing.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was in the east wing, he turned out all of Qian's clothes and cut them into pieces, and also smashed the dressing box hidden in the clothes to the ground, smashing it to pieces!

When Qian came back from the toilet, she entered the east wing and saw the room in a mess, with torn clothes scattered all over the floor.

Qian didn't care about these clothes. Her eyes were always on the broken dressing box on the ground.

Looking at the broken box, she was horrified, her hands trembling, and she hurried forward to pick it up.

This is the box she uses to store her silver jewelry. Inside are two pairs of silver bracelets, six silver hairpins, six silver rings, and six pairs of silver earrings.

She searched the ground but found nothing.

There is no doubt that those silver jewelry must have been taken away!

As for who this person is, it is now clearly visible!

Picking up the box, Qian went to the main hall to settle the score with Gu Zhier!

Gu Liansheng was also in the main room, trying to comfort the sullen-faced Gu Zhier, asking her not to bother with Qian and to be more generous. He said that when they returned to Wang's house, he would buy more things for Gu Zhier to take back to show her off.

Qian, who was outside the door, heard this and immediately flew into a rage. Without even entering the house, she started cursing at the people inside from the corridor.

Gu Zhier was also angry at this time, and her anger had not subsided. When she heard Qian scolding her for stealing, she was stunned at first, and then rushed out with a dark face.

"Bullshit! Who stole your things?! What do you have that's worth me thinking about?!"

…

Gu Liansheng's heartbeat in the room quickened for a moment, and guilt and uneasiness flashed in his eyes.

But he soon calmed down.

From what Qian said, she blamed the lost silver jewelry on Gu Zhier, thinking that Gu Zhier had stolen them.

Gu Liansheng's eyes flashed slightly. This... is good. Since it is blamed on Gu Zhier, then she will not suspect him anymore.

In that case, let Gu Zhier take the blame.

Although doing this is very unfair to my sister, I can compensate her secretly later.

The more Gu Liansheng thought about it, the more he felt that this was a very good idea. He stood up and followed Qian out, wanting to help Qian put the blame on Gu Zhier.

But when he lifted the curtain, he was stunned. Qian and Gu Zhier started fighting!

Neither the aunt nor the sister-in-law was willing to retreat, and they fought and rolled into the snow pit in the yard.

Sometimes Gu Zhier rode on Qian and slapped her, and sometimes Qian relied on her body size and strength to push back, riding on Gu Zhier and slapping her a few times.

In terms of size and strength alone, Gu Zhier is no match for Qian, but when it comes to playing dirty, Gu Zhier is very much like Feng, without any ambiguity, and can leave Qian far behind!

Gu Zhier never threw away the scissors. She knew that Qian would never give up after she cut her clothes, so she kept the scissors hidden on her body.

When the fight started, she took advantage of Qian's carelessness, took out a pair of scissors from her clothes, and scratched Qian's face.

"ah!!!"

A scream was heard instantly, and Qian fell to the side with her hands covering her face, her eyes full of horror!

Gu Zhier got up from the ground, raised the scissors and continued to cut Qian's face!

Qian suddenly lost her temper, covered her face and crawled to the side, shouting for help.

"Someone come! Someone's murdering someone! Master Tongsheng's sister is trying to kill her own sister-in-law!!!"

Gu Zhier's expression was ferocious, and she spat at her: "You whore who needs a man! You are worthy of being my sister-in-law? Bah! Stop disgusting me!

Today I will destroy your face and cut your mouth! I want to see if you can still curse without a face and a mouth!

These words made Qian tremble with fear.

Qian saw Gu Liansheng standing stupidly at the door of the main hall out of the corner of her eye. Her eyes lit up and she thought she was saved, so she staggered towards the main hall.

But the next moment, Gu Liansheng came to his senses and retreated back to the main room in a panic, closed the door, and locked Qian and Gu Zhier outside.

Qian:……!!!

"Open the door! Open the door!" Qian was shocked and angry, and banged on the door frantically.

Unfortunately, Gu Liansheng in the house refused to open the door.

Seeing Gu Zhier coming towards her again with a pair of scissors in hand, Qian had no choice but to run towards the courtyard gate, wanting to go out and ask for help.

As soon as he reached the gate, he bumped into Jin, who was sneaking around outside the gate. Both of them fell into a snow pit, covered in snow.

Gu Zhier caught up with her and took the opportunity to stab Qian's leg with a pair of scissors.

Qian was also very cruel. She relied on her own strength to pull Jin over to block the attack.

Gu Zhier was startled for a moment and wanted to take back the scissors, but it was too late. She could only watch the scissors in her hand pierce Jin's thigh.

Then, a pig-slaughtering cry rang out:

"ah--!!!"

Gu Zhier was frightened and panicked. She subconsciously pulled out the hand holding the scissors, pulling out the scissors that were stuck in her flesh, causing Jin to scream again.

Bright red blood flowed out from the punctured hole. The amount of bleeding was not much and it stopped on its own soon.

Judging from the depth of the red bloodstains on the scissors, the scissors did not stab very deep.

Winter clothes were thick enough to help block some of the damage. Besides, scissors were not knives and were not suitable for stabbing people.

In addition, Gu Zhier's strength was limited, so even if she stood still and let her stab her, she couldn't stab very deep.

Although it wasn't deep, it still caused a bloody hole in the flesh and it still hurt.

Jin hugged her legs with both hands and screamed at the top of her lungs. Half of the people in the village heard her loud voice and came over to follow the sound.

Gu Zhier finally calmed down and realized that she was in trouble. Her face turned pale and her whole body was shaking. She ran back home with scissors in her hand.

Gu Liansheng, who was hiding in the main room, also heard the screams outside. He was so panicked that he had no idea what to do, so he had to run to the west room to ask Old Man Gu for a decision.

Old Master Gu's chest ached again. He warned his son, "Don't, don't open the door! You're a scholar, your hands are weak, and your mother and I are both paralyzed in bed. Your sister is going crazy now, don't let her hurt you by mistake!"

"What about Qian? Listen to her screams, the sound of pain has changed!"

"Why do you care about her? Wouldn't it be better without her? You can keep her dowry and marry another one tomorrow."

This made Gu Liansheng suddenly understand. That's right, why should he panic? As long as the door is closed, Gu Zhier can't get in. As for Qian...

As the saying goes, husband and wife are birds of the same forest, but when disaster strikes, they fly away separately.

For now, the couple can only accept their fate.

"Brother! Open the door!"

Gu Zhier returned to the main room covered in snow, knocked on the door several times, and asked Gu Liansheng to open the door in an urgent tone.

Inside the house, Gu Liansheng shuddered subconsciously when he heard Gu Zhier's voice, but then he thought that Gu Zhier couldn't come in again, and he relaxed instantly.

"Open the door! Big brother! I know you are in the room! Open the door quickly and send me back!"

Gu Zhier's tone was very anxious, and she looked back from time to time, afraid that the villagers would come and catch her.

Gu Liansheng didn't believe her words, and tiptoed out of the west room and asked her to find Li Shunzi.

"We don't have an oxcart at home, so I can't take you there. Go to Shunzi's house and ask if he's free to take you there. Otherwise, go find Lao Er, he also has an oxcart!"
