Chapter 62: Judging Right and Wrong
Gu Mingda looked towards Zhang Guangzong again.
Liu Xiaoru was still chasing Zhang Guangzong and beating him. Liu Xiaoru was taller than many men, and she had been working all year round, so she had excellent physical strength. Zhang Guangzong, who had previously pulled Xiao Cai's hair with a ferocious look, was as fragile as a piece of paper when facing Liu Xiaoru.
After seeing several more bloodstains on Zhang Guangzong's face, Gu Mingda felt that it was enough and gave Zhang Yuniang a look.
Zhang Yunniang shouted, "Xiao Ru, that's enough."
Liu Xiaoru immediately became like a wild horse with a bridle. She retracted the broom, with a murderous look on her face, and walked to Zhang Yuniang, looking well-behaved.
Zhang Guangzong had never seen such a change of expression before, and he was stunned for a long time before he found his voice.
"Cai is my wife, please stop interfering in her business!" Zhang Guangzong said to Gu Mingda and his wife in a fierce manner.
Liu Xiaoru's expression changed again. She picked up the broom and waved it, shouting, "How dare you talk to my sister and brother-in-law like that! You know this will scare the children!"
Zhang Guangzong really wanted to say that he felt that Liu Xiaoru, who always picked up a broom, was many times more frightening than him.
But he had already seen how powerful this tall woman was, and now a little force on his face would cause the wound, making him grimace in pain.
Facing Liu Xiaoru's murderous gaze, Zhang Guangzong almost gritted his teeth and said:
"Cai and I are husband and wife. I hope that the issues between us can be resolved by ourselves. Sister, brother-in-law, please don't interfere, okay?"
Zhang Guangzong had never said such humble and polite words before.
Gu Mingda glanced at Liu Xiaoru and thought to himself, it seems that sometimes, fists are much more powerful than verbal threats.
"Sister, brother-in-law, he will beat me to death, he will really beat me to death!" Xiao Cai shouted.
Zhang Guangzong had no scruples towards Xiao Cai, and waved his fist and cursed: "You whore! You cheated on me, even if I beat you to death, you deserve it!"
He was clearly scolding Xiao Cai, but Niu Niu in Gu Mingda's arms trembled with fear.
Liu Xiaoru picked up the broom and hit him: "I told you not to scare the child, I told you not to scare the child! If Niuniu gets upset, I will fight you!"
Zhang Guangzong fled in fear again. He never thought that there would be a day when he would have to endure so many attacks because of one action of his adopted daughter.
Gu Mingda waited quietly for an incense stick of time to make sure Liu Xiaoru had dealt with most of the people, and then continued: "I'm asking you seriously, are you sure you want to kill Cai?"
Zhang Guangzong had just been beaten, and the violence in his heart was almost dispersed by Liu Xiaoru. He looked at Xiao Cai with hatred and said, "You still want to protect such a fickle woman?"
Zhang Yunniang said directly: "If you can't live together, then don't live together. If you force yourself to stay together, it will be ugly."
Little Cai's eyes suddenly lit up.
When she was unable to give birth to a child, she was indeed afraid of being divorced by her husband, but now it is different. Her lover outside has said several times that he hopes she can marry him.
In addition to feeling somewhat reluctant to part with her son Jinbao, Xiao Cai's feelings for Zhang Guangzong had long been worn out by her husband's daily beatings after Niuniu left the family.
Zhang Guangzong jumped up anxiously and said, "I gave Cai's family so much money to marry her. Why should I let her go like this? She is a member of our Zhang family while she is alive, and she will be a ghost of our Zhang family after she dies!"
Xiao Cai was the niece of Mrs. Cai, but her uncle was very rude to his nephew. Before she got married, Xiao Cai was famous for her beauty, otherwise Zhang Guangzong, who was always picky, would not have insisted on marrying her. In the end, he paid a betrothal gift of thirty taels of silver before he took her into his family.
Little Cai said, "I gave birth to a treasure for your family! Even if it cost me a lot of money, it's what I deserve. Why won't you let me go?"
Zhang Guangzong cursed: "If I had a different wife, I would have given birth to eight or ten children long ago. But you are a chicken that doesn't lay eggs... You have only given birth to one child after so many years of marriage..."
Little Cai said, "You have been having affairs with several widows outside, but you have never given birth to a child."
When Zhang Guangzong heard this, he was completely stunned.
For so many years, he always thought that it was Xiao Cai's inability to have children, and never thought that it was actually his own problem.
Come to think of it, Jinbao didn't seem to have much in common with him.
"You fickle woman, is Jinbao your bastard?" Zhang Guangzong was so anxious that he wanted to rush up and hit her again.
Little Cai hurriedly hid behind Liu Xiaoru: "Jinbao is your child, don't tarnish his innocence!"
"You have a shitty reputation!" Zhang Guangzong cursed.
The two were just arguing, but Niu Niu was no longer as scared as before. She nestled in Gu Mingda's arms, listening very attentively with her little ears perked up.
Gu Zhao, who was standing by, also watched the Zhang couple arguing with sparkling eyes.
Gu Mingda looked at the two children and his forehead twitched. He couldn't help it and shouted, "That's enough, stop arguing!"
The couple both stopped.
Gu Mingda finally had some peace of mind, so he asked Zhang Guangzong, "Have you determined that Cai has someone else outside? Do you have any evidence?"
Zhang Guangzong immediately said, "This requires evidence. Look at what she is wearing on her head. This kind of silk flower is not cheap. I don't know which wild man gave it to her."
Little Cai replied: "Any man is more generous than you. I don't want to live with you anymore!"
"Brother-in-law, you saw it, she admitted it herself, you should send this whore to the government and have her thrown into a pig cage!" Zhang Guangzong said anxiously.
Gu Mingda glanced at him and asked, "Have you read so much of your books? The government doesn't care about this matter."
Zhang Guangzong was stunned.
The government does not care about adulterers and adulteresses. Such matters are handled by the clan. Even if you report to the police, you will be beaten out.
Gu Mingda looked at him deeply and said, "If she conspired with her adulterer to murder her husband, the government would take care of it."
Zhang Guangzong was so frightened that his body trembled.
