Chapter 48 Such a heavy hand
When Grandpa Hu saw this, he coughed and said loudly, "Children are not allowed to make trouble. If a fight really breaks out, I won't be able to take care of you. Stay at home."
As soon as grandpa spoke, Lin Xiangxi and the other younger ones all groaned, but they could only put the sticks in their hands back to their original places.
Lin Xiangnan felt that he was definitely not from the children's table, so he remained calm and motionless.
Grandpa Hu glanced at her, and then glanced at her again. Seeing that Lin Xiangnan didn't respond, he had to say, "Xiaonan, you stay at home too. Gu Fugen and the others are the elders after all."
The two families are engaged. Hu Daxi and Hu Meili can fight for Lin Xiangnan, but Lin Xiangnan cannot do it himself as it would be embarrassing if it were made public.
Lin Xiangnan quickly expressed his position, "I won't bother with Gu Chouni and her husband. I will only beat up Gu Zhenguo."
"Okay then. Go ahead. Move your hands and feet so you don't hold your breath." After Grandpa Hu finished speaking, he instructed Hu Daxi: "Remember to talk about reason first."
"clear."
Being reasonable means explaining the reasons to the neighbors before a fight so that everyone knows who is at fault, so as not to affect the reputation of the Hu family.
The Gu family is just spreading rumors behind our backs, but if we leave it alone, who knows what they will do. So this warning must be given.
When the group went there, they hid their sticks for fear of being seen, but once they arrived at Gu's house, everyone took out their sticks and acted aggressively.
Hu Meili pushed out the woman who came to propose marriage to her, "Come, in front of Gu Chouni and everyone else, tell us what Gu Chouni said."
"Gu Chouni said your daughter has a problem, and asked me to go to you to propose marriage..."
"You're talking nonsense. I never said those words. You're slandering me." Gu Chouni didn't dare to admit it.
Gu Zhenhua only had the knife hanging above her head, but the Hu family had almost put the knife to her neck. It would be strange if she dared to admit it.
"You coward, you dare not admit it but talk." If Gu Chouni did not admit it, she would be the one who would suffer, so the woman confronted Gu Chouni in person.
"You told me this under the tree outside the pharmaceutical factory the day before yesterday. Many people saw it. Besides me, you also whispered to Sister Liu and Sister Xu in the past two days, and you must have said the same things. I don't believe you can deny it."
There was no need to confront others. Someone in the crowd watching the excitement in the same yard quietly said, "I heard it too."
Gu Chouni felt extremely regretful.
She has told too many people about it, so she can't deny it.
Since she couldn't explain it clearly, Gu Chouni simply sat on the ground and said, "I just saw them hugging and kissing each other, but they dared not let anyone say anything!"
Others' words are not credible, but Gu Chouni is Gu Zhenhua's biological mother, so her words are very credible.
Seeing that Lin Xiangnan wanted to stand up, Hu Meili held her down, rushed forward, and slapped Gu Chouni twice.
While beating him, she asked, "What time, where? If you can't give me a clear answer, I'll beat you to death."
Gu Chouni really couldn’t explain it.
So she was slapped twice by Hu Meili again.
Gu Chouni had also worked for many years and was quite strong. After being slapped a few times, she wanted to break free from Hu Meili's restraints. But the aunts who came to help were not just there to watch the fun. Seeing this, they stepped forward to help hold her down and twisted the soft flesh on her arms and stomach.
While beating people, everyone also kept cursing at each other.
Lin Xiangnan was shocked by the fighting power of this group of middle-aged women. Although they were certainly not seriously injured in the end, the insult was extremely strong.
She really couldn't take part in this fight because she hadn't developed enough thickness to be thick-skinned.
Lin Xiangnan shifted his gaze away from Gu Chouni and looked at other members of the Gu family.
The sixth son of the Gu family, Gu Zhenjun, is not at home. He has not returned home so late. He is a similar person to Gu Zhenhua. Except for sleeping at night, he is not at home most of the time.
Gu Zhenguo's wife hid in the corner with her two daughters, pretending to be invisible, and didn't get involved at all. She grew up in the countryside and was actually very strong in combat, but Gu Chouni treated her badly, so she didn't care when Gu Chouni was beaten.
There are only two men in the family now, Gu Zhenguo and Gu Fugen. However, when they saw Gu Chouni being bullied, they did not dare to step forward to help, but instead distanced themselves from the matter.
"I don't know. I didn't say that. It was Gu Chouni who spread the rumors around."
"If you hit her, you can't hit me."
Lin Xiangnan couldn't help but frown at Gu Fugen's cowardly look. How could there be such a man?
"Not hitting you? I'm going to hit you. Smash him." Second uncle Hu Shuangxi said 'Pah' and rushed forward, kicking Gu Fugen to the ground with both feet. He couldn't stand such a cowardly man.
While the other cousins were smashing things, Lin Xiangnan walked towards the sandbag he had chosen long ago - Gu Zhenguo.
Gu Zhenguo thought he would face a bunch of fancy moves, and he breathed a sigh of relief. But he almost couldn't catch his breath after one punch.
"I forgot to tell you that I also know a little bit of fighting skills. Next time you say something bad about me secretly, I'll beat you to death."
Lin Xiangnan threw two more punches, then asked curiously, "Who hurts you more, me or Gu Zhenhua?"
Gu Zhenguo answered honestly: "Gu Zhenhua."
"Hmm?" Lin Xiangnan was not convinced and punched him twice harder, "What about now?"
Gu Zhenguo screamed, "You, you, you! You hit people the hardest."
"That's right. Do you dare to say bad things about me next time?"
"I don't dare."
Hu Daxi was destroying things very quickly, and before the mediators arrived, they had almost completely destroyed the Gu family's house.
As soon as the people from the street office started talking, Hu Daxi simply stopped.
"Okay, I'll give you some face and let's forget about this matter today. But if Gu Chouni continues to make up stories about our child, we'll come back."
It was wrong for the Hu family to go to the house and smash things, but Gu Chouni was wrong first, and the two families were relatives. Even if the matter tonight was brought to the police station, it would not be clear.
Moreover, the Gu family had a bad reputation. Whenever the people from the street office mediated disputes between neighbors, as long as the Gu family had a conflict with others, it was obvious that the Gu family was definitely wrong. If they were not afraid of someone dying, they would not want to get involved.
So the people from the street office just gave Hu Daxi a few verbal lecture and then left, not caring about the Gu family at all.
After Lin Xiangnan and his group vented their anger, they left, while several members of the Gu family hugged their heads and cried.
"Son, where are you injured? Tell me quickly and I will apply medicine for you." Gu Chouni wiped her tears while checking Gu Zhenguo's wound.
After the inspection, Gu Chouni couldn't help but curse, "You beast, you're so harsh."
