Chapter 129 Aunt is Here Again
Shi's mother had no choice but to obey her daughter and reluctantly helped her daughter out of the house.
This happened a few days later.
One day, Gu Leyou woke up and his eyelids were twitching.
As the saying goes, if your left eye twitches, you will have good fortune, but if your right eye twitches, you will have disaster.
When I woke up this morning, my right eyelid kept twitching. I thought something bad was going to happen.
Sure enough, when he finished making breakfast and was about to invite the father and son to eat, he heard a knock on the door in the yard.
And there was a rapid knock on the door.
She thought her parents wanted to see her for something, but when she opened the door, she saw the person she least wanted to see.
Aunt, Yang is here again.
Although she didn't want to see this aunt, she still welcomed her in out of politeness.
"Aunt, what do you want from me? Don't come to me for reputation issues again. I'll tell you that I don't care about this matter."
"You are a very smart little girl. I am here for my daughter's matter. You liar, didn't you say that the little doctor had a fiancée? But people outside felt sorry for him for not having a fiancée, and he almost married the village chief's daughter."
"But the daughter of the village chief, that was a pure misunderstanding. Wasn't he already engaged to the son of another family? We all know that."
Speaking of the village chief's daughter, Anniu Gu Leyou, I have an impression of her.
Anniu has already been engaged to a son from another village in the town.
As far as she knows.
The son of that family was handsome but a little lame. He was hardworking and a very good person. Although the village chief's wife was a little unhappy, the village chief had already agreed to the marriage. Gu Leyou and the others don't have to worry about anything.
It would be fine if they didn't mention the village chief's daughter, but they got furious when they mentioned their aunt.
"You are such a traitor. You can help the village chief's daughter propose to the young doctor, but why can't you be more supportive of your sister? She is your cousin. Besides, we begged you so much at the beginning. If you had dared to move your lips, your cousin would have been married long ago. Why wait until now when there is no one to propose marriage?"
Gu Leyou was speechless. Her aunt was a matchmaker herself. Who could she blame if her daughter couldn't get married? If the bad things he had done had not been known by the county magistrate and Lord Su who came to investigate the case.
Why did they have to let things turn out like this? If no one came to propose marriage, they could only blame their own daughter for not living up to her expectations. Could they really blame him, their married niece?
Seeing this, Lu Yan hurried out to persuade them.
"Aunt, you are a matchmaker. You don't need us, the younger generation, to interfere in your daughter's marriage. Why don't you handle it yourself? Besides, whether the little doctor has a wife or not is not something you, an outsider, need to worry about. Even I, your sworn brother, didn't get involved, so why are you interfering?"
It would have been fine if Lu Yan didn't say anything, but as soon as he started talking, his aunt immediately got angry.
Mrs. Yang felt that her niece and niece-in-law did not take her, their aunt, seriously at all.
So he started shouting loudly again, and the neighbors gathered in front of their house to watch the fun.
When she saw so many people coming, my aunt immediately felt confident.
"Come and judge for yourself. How can a young person talk to an elder like that? After all, I am their aunt. How can they ignore me like that?"
"Old man from the Gu family, why are you looking for this young couple again? It's not about your daughter's affairs. Your best friend should just stay at home. Why does she have to harm other people's kids?"
Said an old lady who had a beef with her.
"What nonsense are you talking about? My daughter is very good and has been staying at home very well recently."
Speaking of the matchmaker, the aunt, they recalled an incident that left a deep impression on Gu Leyou. In fact, my aunt was not a matchmaker before. After she gave birth to Mingyue, she didn’t want to work in the fields, so she found a worker for herself.
So she started working as a matchmaker.
The first one or two years were pretty good, and we were able to successfully secure the coal.
But later she tasted the sweetness of making money and started to act against her conscience.
He is harming the girl with a guilty conscience.
She always thought that she would not be discovered, but the net of heaven is vast and long, and nothing can escape it.
One day, the girl's parents came to the house and said that they wanted to take my aunt to the government to ask the county magistrate for help.
Only then did the aunt get scared. Gu Leyou was only 15 years old that year.
For children from farming families like theirs, their families would start looking for husbands for them when they turned 15.
The girl was only 16 years old and was framed by her aunt.
They thought that the family that their aunt had introduced to them was a good one, but it turned out to be a family that was even poorer than theirs. Not only did they owe a lot of gambling debts, but the husband was also a compulsive gambler and a drinker.
Not long after the girl got married, she was sent back to her parents' home.
They both wanted to divorce, and luckily the parents of that family let the girl go, otherwise the girl would have been beaten to death by the son of that family.
After their daughter was sent back to her parents' home, the parents were so angry that they immediately went to find the aunt.
Because my aunt took money from these two families.
My aunt thought that this matter would be easily resolved.
"Mr. Gu, my good daughter was almost driven crazy by that family. My daughter was almost beaten to death a month after her marriage. You are so shameless to do such a heinous thing and dare to talk about our money. You are really heartless."
This was said by the girl's mother.
The girl's father was very angry and took his aunt to see the county magistrate.
"You black-hearted woman, hurry up and come with me to see the county magistrate. Let's talk things over and pay the compensation. Otherwise, my best friend's crime will be in vain. A good girl was harmed by your family like this. If you don't give me a reasonable explanation, I will definitely sue you."
My aunt is a fierce woman. All the neighbors know how powerful she is. Facing the threats from the other party, my aunt is not afraid. She shouted at the top of her voice, "I didn't guarantee anything when I introduced your daughter to someone else. Who knew things would turn out like this? I don't want her to suffer."
"I don't know you. You are always greedy. Is it because that family gave you more money than ours, so you want to harm our daughter? You also know that once she is divorced by her husband's family, it will be difficult for our daughter to marry a good family again. If it's not you who harmed her, who harmed her? If you don't give me a reasonable explanation, our family of three will not leave."
This was said by the girl's father.
"My dear brother, what you said is funny. The legs are on your daughter's body. If she wants to leave, will her family stop her? If you think it's not suitable, you can just get a divorce."
It turned out that my aunt was quite educated and could even say the word "divorce". Gu Leyou, who was only 15 years old at the time, was also very shocked.
However, it is obvious that it is wrong for the aunt to make money from their family against her conscience.
This girl looks pretty and is a good girl who should not be ruined by a bad family.
Although she was the younger generation, she was still there when their family came to make trouble.
Solve this matter.
She stood in front of everyone and apologized to the girl's family on behalf of her eldest aunt.
"I'm sorry, this girl is the one who caused you to be in trouble now. Don't worry, it's our family's responsibility. We will take responsibility for it. The aunt is possessed by a ghost and will definitely compensate her for what she deserves."
We are all from the same village, so we all know each other.
The girl's parents were very satisfied that Gu Leyou could say such words.
So they didn't make a big fuss here, but asked their aunt to write an IOU to pay off all the money they owed their family.
But my aunt is a person who loves to take advantage of others and she refused to sign the IOU no matter what.
The eldest aunt said, "Whoever signs the IOU today will be the one they go to find in the future. It has nothing to do with me. I am just a matchmaker and have done what I should do. As for which of the two families is dissatisfied, it has nothing to do with me."
After hearing what Yang said, everyone shook their heads and expressed their disgust at her rogue behavior.
The girl's father was so angry that his face turned blue, veins popped out on his forehead, and he stepped forward, pointed at Yang's nose and cursed: "You bitch, you're still thinking of cheating at this time! If you don't sign the IOU today, don't even think about leaving this yard!"
Yang's neck stiffened, she put her hands on her hips, and retorted without showing any weakness: "Don't try to scare me here. I, Yang, was not brought up to be scared! If you have the guts, tie me up and take me to the official. I want to see what the county magistrate can do to me!"
Just when the two sides were on the verge of a fight, Gu Leyou stood up, took a deep breath, tried to keep herself calm, and said softly: "Aunt, we are in the wrong in this matter, please don't be stubborn.
Signing the IOU and paying the money back is also an explanation to the girl. Otherwise, how can you live in this village in the future? ”
Yang glared at Gu Leyou fiercely, spat and said, "You are a traitor, how can you speak for outsiders like this? Don't forget that your last name is Gu too!"
Gu Leyou felt aggrieved, but she knew that if she didn't give the other party a reasonable answer at this moment, the other party would not leave, and they would have to stay here and make a fool of themselves.
So she came up with this idea.
"Aunt, if you don't want to sign, you can just put your fingerprint on it. These days, putting your fingerprint on it counts. As long as you put your fingerprint on it, they can take the IOU and leave. As for when you pay back the money, that's your business."
But the nanny was still reluctant to put her fingerprints on the document.
This left them helpless.
The girl's parents took her aunt to see the county magistrate.
The aunt thought that the parents were trying to scare her, but she didn't expect that they were serious. She was suddenly a little scared and asked her grandmother for help.
"Mom, what should I do?" Aunt Liu asked.
As their mother, Liu is also the head of their family.
Faced with such a situation, Niu Shi felt that she was powerless. After all, this was done by her eldest daughter-in-law and had nothing to do with her, an old woman.
So she didn't plan to get involved in this matter. After all, interfering too much would be bad for her.
Seeing that they were unmoved, the girl's parents wanted to drag their aunt to see the official.
When my aunt saw that the other party was serious, she was so scared that her legs went limp and she collapsed to the ground.
My aunt collapsed on the ground, her face pale and beads of sweat the size of beans rolling down her forehead. She began to mumble incoherently: "No, don't take me to see the official, I don't want to go, I don't want to go to jail..."
Seeing this, the girl's father snorted coldly: "Are you scared now? What were you doing before? When you were making this dirty money against your conscience, why didn't you think that this day would come?"
Gu Leyou felt a little bit reluctant when he saw his aunt in such a miserable state. But when he thought about the immoral things she had done, he felt that she deserved it.
She spoke again to persuade him: "Aunt, please stop making trouble and quickly put your handprint on it to resolve the matter. Otherwise, if you really go to the government, things will only get worse."
Yang raised her head, her eyes full of fear and unwillingness. She looked at Gu Leyou and pleaded, "Niece, can't you help your aunt think of a solution? If I press my fingerprint, I will have to pay a large sum of money, and I will be in debt."
Gu Leyou shook her head helplessly: "Aunt, this is your own fault and you must bear the consequences. If you keep cheating like this, you will never be able to gain a foothold in the village in the future."
Just then, the village chief heard about this and rushed over. The village chief is highly respected in the village. He is fair and strict in his daily life, and everyone respects him.
He walked into the yard, glanced at everyone, and then his eyes fell on Yang who was slumped on the ground.
He said in a deep voice: "Ms. Yang, you are so outrageous! Matchmaking is a good thing to accumulate virtue, but you harmed the girl for money. Has your conscience been eaten by a dog?"
When Yang saw the village chief coming, she crawled to the village chief as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw.
She cried, "Village Chief, please help me! I didn't do it on purpose. I never thought things would turn out like this..."
The village chief interrupted her and said, "Stop quibbling here! The facts are before your eyes, and you still want to deny it? If you don't solve this matter today, don't even think about staying in our village!"
Yang was so scared that she was shaking all over, she knew that the village chief always kept his word. After hesitating for a long time, she finally gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, I'll put my fingerprints on it and I'll slowly pay them back."
Under the gaze of everyone, Yang stretched out her hand tremblingly and pressed her fingerprint on the IOU.
The girl's parents took the IOU, glared at Yang fiercely, and said, "I hope you can keep your word and pay the money back on time. If you dare to cheat again, we will never let you go!"
After that, they took their daughter and left.
