Chapter 182 Give You an Explanation
Daniu's eyes widened, obviously not expecting Gu Yuexuan to find him. He swallowed and tried to defend himself: "I, I was just playing, I didn't mean to really hit her."
"Play?" Gu Yuexuan sneered, "Look at the slap marks on Yan Ting's face, does this look like play?"
Daniu was speechless and lowered his head. Gu Yuexuan continued to ask, "Tell me, why did you do this?"
Da Niu was silent for a while, and finally whispered: "I just can't stand her always bullying Yun Xi, and I want to teach her a lesson."
Gu Yuexuan was furious. She glared at Da Niu and said in an increasingly harsh tone, "What qualifications do you have to teach others a lesson? This kind of behavior is the real bullying!"
Tu Su Yanting couldn't help crying. She walked to Gu Yuexuan, held her hand tightly, and sobbed, "Sister, I don't want to pursue it anymore. As long as Daniu doesn't bully us anymore, that's all."
Gu Yuexuan looked at Tu Su Yanting, her heart aching. She gently patted Tu Su Yanting's shoulder and said softly, "Okay, we won't make a fuss about it. But, Daniel, you have to remember, never treat others like this again."
Daniu nodded, a look of guilt on his face. He looked at Tu Su Yanting and apologized softly, "I'm sorry, Sister Yanting, I won't bully you again."
Tu Suyanting wiped away her tears and said with a smile, "It's okay, Daniel, we are still good friends."
Seeing that her sisters had resolved their misunderstanding, Gu Yuexuan felt relieved. She took Tu Su Yanting and Tu Su Yunxi back home, wiped their tears and comforted them.
At this moment, the old lady suddenly interrupted: "Tu Su Yanting is a 'good girl' raised by her own mother. It is a blessing for our Tu Su family that such a girl can marry into our family."
Everyone present was stunned when these words came out. Tu Su Yanting's face turned pale. Her mother passed away when she was young. She had always known the old lady's prejudice against her, but such sharp sarcasm still made her heart ache.
Tu Subo saw that something was not right and hurriedly stepped forward to try to comfort the old lady: "Grandma, Yan Ting is our Tu Su family's child. She will be very sad if you say that. Besides, it's getting late now and you are tired. Why don't you rest first? We can talk about it tomorrow if there is anything."
The old lady glared at Tu Subo, her tone still sharp: "I know whether I am tired or not. I am just worried about how a woman like this will be able to manage the household and educate the children in the future."
The old grandfather had been sitting in the first seat, listening silently to the old lady's words. At this moment, he looked at the old lady sternly and said in a heavy tone: "Enough, the matter has passed, let's not mention it again. Yan Ting is a good child, I believe she can manage the household well and educate the children well."
The old lady glanced at the grandfather unwillingly, and her tone softened slightly: "I am just worried that the children will not be able to become talented people in the future, and our Tu Su family's reputation will be ruined in their hands."
The old grandfather smiled calmly: "I have lived for so long and have never seen anyone succeed or fail. The children have their own paths, let them walk them. I believe they can do well."
Tu Suyanting felt a warm feeling in her heart as she listened to her grandfather's words. She looked up at him, her eyes filled with gratitude.
Tu Subo looked at Yan Ting and felt a sense of emotion in his heart.
Gu Yuexuan's gaze fell on the sobbing Tu Su Yanting, and she turned to ask Tu Su Minyang: "Minyang, tell me, who beat you kids?"
Tu Suminyang gritted his teeth, his face livid, his eyes gleaming with anger. He fought back tears and said in a trembling voice, "It was the adults from the Wei family who beat us up."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yuexuan frowned, a hint of coldness flashing in her eyes. She turned to look at her grandfather, only to see that his originally kind face had turned gloomy.
"Grandfather, we can't just let this matter go like this." Gu Yuexuan said in a deep voice.
The old grandfather pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "You're right. This matter must have an explanation. Minyang, can you tell me in detail what happened?"
Tu Su Minyang calmed himself down and recounted what had happened.
It turned out that the Wei children were playing at the village entrance that day. Seeing Tu Su Yanting alone, they began to tease her. Li Shi rushed over and was about to stop them when the adults of the Wei family suddenly rushed forward and beat the children without any reason.
Li was so angry that her whole body was shaking. She pointed at the adults of the Wei family and cursed, "You shameless people, how dare you hit an innocent child! Yan Ting is just a child, what qualifications do you have to bully her?"
The elders of the Wei family did not take it seriously. Instead, they said arrogantly, "We, the Wei family, can beat up anyone we want. What do you, the Tusu family, dare to do?"
Li was so angry that she couldn't speak. She could only hug Yan Ting tightly, tears streaming down her face.
At this time, Gu Yuexuan, her grandfather, and others had already arrived at the scene. Gu Yuexuan looked at Tu Su Yanting's tear-stained face, and her heart ached. She turned to look at Li Shi and said softly, "Li Shi, don't be afraid. Our Tu Su family is not easy to bully."
Upon hearing this, a hint of gratitude flashed in Li's eyes, and she held Gu Yuexuan's hand tightly.
The old grandfather said in a deep voice: "Minyang, don't worry, I will definitely give you justice in this matter. The people of the Wei family dared to bully our Tusu family like this, so we will let them know how powerful we are."
Tu Suminyang nodded, with a determined light in his eyes.
That evening, the Tusu family held a family meeting to discuss how to respond to the incident. At the meeting, Gu Yuexuan advocated for severe punishment of the Wei family and for justice for Yan Ting and Min Yang. Grandfather and other family members expressed their support.
The next day, the Tusu family sent a representative with gifts to the Wei family, demanding a reasonable explanation. Seeing this, the Wei family panicked and dared not to act arrogantly anymore.
However, the head of the Wei family was a cunning character. He pretended to be ignorant and evaded responsibility by saying, "I didn't know about this matter. I will only give you an explanation if you can prove that it was someone from the Wei family who beat me up."
The Tu Su family representative went back to report. After hearing this, the old grandfather sneered: "Do they think we can't find evidence? Minyang, take me to the village entrance to take a look."
Tu Suminyang brought his grandfather to the village entrance and pointed to a patch of grass and said, "Grandfather, this is where they beat us that day."
The old grandfather bent down to investigate and indeed found broken branches and grass debris in the grass. He said coldly, "This is the evidence. The Wei family can no longer deny it."
After returning to Tu Su's home, the grandfather immediately sent someone to deliver the evidence to the Wei family and once again demanded an explanation from the Wei family. Seeing the irrefutable evidence, the Wei family could no longer deny it and had to admit their mistake.
When Yu heard the news, she was furious, and a layer of frost instantly covered her face. She clenched her fists and looked out of the house with a determined gaze, as if she could see the Wei family through the door.
By this time, Tu Su Minyang and Tu Su Yanting had been dragged into the house, their faces visibly bruised and tear-stained. Tu Su Minyang's eyes were red and swollen, and blood still clung to the corners of his mouth. Tu Su Yanting, on the other hand, hugged Tu Su Yunxi tightly, comforting her little niece.
