This is a typical layout for a southern-style house.
A main hall with rooms on both sides.
Unlike the layout of houses in the north, there is no need to heat a kang (heated brick bed) here, so there are no heated walls or similar structures.
This room is located at the back, and a door leads to the back.
Gu Yunyang saw a mean-looking woman in the room who had been hitting Gu Gaoyang. Unlike other children, Gu Gaoyang did not become afraid after being hit a few times.
Gu Gaoyang kept crying loudly until his voice became hoarse.
Later, the woman saw that Gu Gaoyang kept crying, and Gu Yunyang brought people over.
If this sound gets out, doesn't it tell others that someone is here?
She immediately covered Gu Gaoyang's mouth.
During the incident, Gu Gaoyang bit the woman, and the woman's face turned ugly. She then slapped Gu Gaoyang in the face.
Gu Yunyang couldn't hold back any longer and ordered Hei Zi and his men to attack.
Then, the other five black dogs followed the scent and came over, and then Gu Yunyang led his men in.
There were more than thirty people, and after they came in, they overturned a lot of the things inside.
The Cao family members watched from behind, some with eyes wide with rage.
Uncle Cao Ying was furious. These were all his own things, even though they were just broken.
Bang.
Gu Yunyang was also somewhat angry. He saw that the woman slapped Gu Gaoyang, even though he knew it wasn't his fault.
How could he have known things would turn out this way?
They're all relatives after all; this woman really doesn't care about anything.
Judging from his mean-spirited manner, you can tell he's not a good person.
But hitting children?
Gu Yunyang really didn't expect this.
So Gu Yunyang casually overturned the table in the main room of Uncle Cao's house.
boom.
The thermos flask fell to the ground and shattered.
Gu Hanping was startled, but considering his nephew's affection for his family, he felt that it was okay for Uncle Cao Ying's things to be broken.
Not only did he think that way, Gu Hanping also took action himself.
Gu Hanping also overturned a tall cabinet inside the table.
The cabinet fell down with a loud thud.
"Oh dear, these are my things."
"My grandfather clock."
On the cabinet, there was a grandfather clock with a pendulum swinging continuously.
One round trip takes one second.
This was a popular clock in this era, and it wasn't cheap.
The door, which was made of glass, shattered instantly when it was dropped.
Once the door is opened, you'll see the clock face, which has a hole for winding the clock.
This thing is mechanical, not electric.
Every so often, a special tool needs to be inserted into that hole.
It contains many spring-like components, which are clockwork mechanisms. Once the clockwork is wound up, it can last for about fifteen days.
This is a Sanwu brand table clock, made in Shanghai.
It is said that there are German-made clocks that can be used for 400 days once the mainspring is wound up.
But these are all digressions.
Aunt Cao Ying broke down when she saw the broken clock.
This is the most valuable item in the house; it was part of her son's dowry, given to her by her daughter-in-law's family when her son got married.
It was originally meant to be placed in the daughter-in-law's room.
But she took it from her daughter-in-law's room to the main room, placing it on this tall cabinet, since everyone in the family needed to keep track of the time.
As a result, it was smashed to pieces when Gu Hanping flipped it over.
This is obviously unusable.
"Oh dear, I can't live like this anymore." Aunt Cao Ying sat down on the ground and began to wail.
