Chapter 213 Sent to a Mental Hospital
Upon hearing Gu Shu's words, the courtyard fell silent!
"I'll go take a look!" The old lady got up and quickly walked towards the door.
The remaining people looked at each other, then got up, closed the door, and headed towards the scene of the incident.
When they arrived at the village entrance, they saw the village chief holding a powerful flashlight, illuminating the surrounding area clearly.
There were many people around, and a large space was cleared in the middle of the crowd. Li Shazi was sitting on the ground, soaking wet, being held in his mother's arms.
Across from the two was a family of five in the village. One of the women was also soaking wet and was looking at Li Shazi with a face full of resentment.
Gu Yin and the others surrounded them.
While comforting Li the Fool, his mother, Wang Cuihua, cried and said, "He's just not smart enough! He doesn't understand anything! What's the use of hitting him!"
No sooner had she finished speaking than Li Er, the head of the household across the street, cursed, "Damn it, is he stupid? If he's stupid, why would he specifically pick women to hug? If he's stupid, why doesn't he hug men, the old, or the young?!"
Gu Shu tugged at Li Dashu, who had been watching the show for a while: "What's going on here?"
Li Dashu whispered, "Li Er's wife had just come back from the fields and was washing her hoe at the pond near the village entrance. Who knew that as soon as she turned around after washing it, Li Shazi grabbed her and they both fell into the pond. Li Er's wife was held tightly by him and couldn't break free. It was Li Er who came back later and saw it that rescued her."
Gu Yin thought of the pool that was only knee-deep, and realized that Li Shazi must have trapped the person in the pool. When she looked over just now, Gu Yin noticed that Li Er's wife had been bitten on the face and neck and was bleeding.
"So, Li Er beat up Li Shazi, and then Li Shazi's mother came out looking for him. She happened to see what was happening, and the two families started arguing!"
"Everyone knows he's stupid! Even the village chief knows! As for why he only hugs young wives, isn't it all because of your foul mouths that he taught him that!"
Li the Fool's mother looked at Gu Yin and the others, then turned to Li Er and said sarcastically, "Don't think I don't know. Your family is jealous that the Gu family gave the shop to the Da Shu family, so you made my son cause trouble for Xiao Hua! My son is stupid; you tell him four or five times and he still won't remember. But you guys keep showing him this and that, which caused him to come home and tug at my clothes, demanding a wife! I only found out when I asked! It turns out what you said in the village during the day wasn't a joke! You were serious! You seriously wanted to ruin Xiao Hua!"
Upon hearing this, Li Dashu's mother immediately let out a howl and pounced on Li Er's face, scratching at him!
Big Tree and Big Tree's father also caught up.
The village chief quickly called over the onlookers and separated them!
When Li the Fool's mother saw them fighting, she laughed loudly and said, "That's not all! Back then, you wanted to take over the Gu family's shop, but you were kicked out when you came! So you've held a grudge ever since! Knowing that the Gu family's children were on holiday for National Day, you took my son to pass by the Gu family's place frequently, and even pointed out to him the two girls from the Gu family! Saying that if you want to find a wife, you should find someone like them!"
Although her son told her about it when he got home, she didn't refuse. She thought to herself that if she could really seduce one of them, and the Gu family was so rich, then she would be the one who profited! If she pretended not to know, who could say anything about her?
"Wang Cuihua, shut up! If you keep talking nonsense, you can't stay in Lijia Village any longer! Take your stupid son and get out of Lijia Village right now!"
Gu Yin looked over and saw that the speaker was Old Lady Li, a senior figure in the village! She was the one who led the trouble at the Gu family's house, and she was also Li Er's grandmother!
Wang Cuihua, a widow with a child, was in dire need of help. If she were really driven out of Lijia Village, how would she and her child survive? So she fell silent.
Grandma Li looked at Grandma Gu, whose face was dark, and laughed, "Wang Cuihua is talking nonsense. How could our second son do such a thing?"
The old woman sneered, "So so many families are eyeing that little shop in town? If they're so envious, why don't they open one themselves? Are they too useless to know how to run a business? Ha! That's all they'll ever be! Hating others' possessions and laughing at others' lack, you're vicious and despicable!"
After saying that, he ignored them, called the old man, and took Gu Yin and the others home. There was no point in saying anything more; after all, this was Li Family Village.
The next morning, a car came to the village. In addition to the doctor from the city's mental hospital, there was also a middle-aged man wearing a white shirt and black trousers. They went to the village chief's house.
After a while, the village chief led them to Li Shazi's house. Before long, Li Shazi was put into a car, and Wang Cuihua went with him.
After the car drove away, the crowd asked curiously, "Village chief, what are you doing? What did Li the Fool do wrong?"
Li Sen smiled and said, "The doctors who came are from the city. The Third Municipal Hospital arranged for doctors to go to the countryside to arrange for people with mental problems to be hospitalized for observation and treatment. City leaders also came with them."
"Does free treatment still cost money? If it can't be cured, will they lock you up and not let you out? Why did Wang Cuihua go along too?"
Li Sen: "Hospitalization costs money, but medication is not. If it doesn't work, it's still better to be hospitalized. There are doctors there, so there's nothing to be afraid of. Wang Cuihua went to stay with her."
Even if Li Sen said that, no one would believe him. After all, how can locking someone up in a mental hospital be as free as being at home?
Everyone thought it was Old Lady Li's family who did it! Because Old Lady Li said those things last night, maybe she was the one who reported it.
From then on, the reputation of Old Lady Li's family was completely ruined. Nobody wanted to associate with them anymore, for fear of being stabbed in the back without their knowledge.
Everyone in the Gu family knew that Chu Yan was behind it, and they all kept quiet about it, so they didn't bring it up again.
