There were too many things, so Gu Juan also drove there. Yun Muye drove with Gu Zhinian, and little Tangyuan sat in his uncle's car.
Mother Gu held Gu Zhinian's hand reluctantly, "Niannian, come back next week when you have a holiday. Mom will be waiting for you at home."
"Okay." Gu Zhinian looked at his grandparents and father.
"Grandpa, grandma, dad, mom, I'm leaving."
"Okay, let's go back!"
Gu Zhinian got in the car, and the Gu family didn't return to the house until the car drove away.
The car drove to the downstairs of the family building and parked. Gu Juan and Yun Muye were carrying a lot of things in their hands, and Gu Zhinian held Xiao Tangyuan's hand and went upstairs.
Gu Zhinian opened the door, and Li Yuling came over after hearing the sound, and cried out in surprise.
"Yeah! You guys are back today!"
"mom!"
"Grandma!" Little Tangyuan let go of his mother's hand and ran over. Li Yuling smiled and picked up her eldest grandson.
"My dear grandson, are you having fun at grandma's house?"
"Happy! Grandpa bought me lots of toys!"
Little Tangyuan kept talking about his life at his grandmother's house. Li Yuling listened carefully and responded to him from time to time. Yun Muye and Gu Juan came into the house with things. Li Yuling enthusiastically took Gu Juan's hand and asked him to stay for dinner. Gu Juan politely refused her.
"Aunt, I have something else to do, so I won't stay."
Gu Juan put down his things and walked out. Yun Muye went to see him off. Little Tangyuan was reluctant to leave his uncle. The two agreed on the next time they would meet, and only then did little Tangyuan let his uncle go.
After a day's rest, Gu Zhinian went to work. As soon as she arrived at the class, Wang Li started chatting with her about gossip.
"Do you still remember the woman named Li Guiying who came to sue last time?"
Gu Zhinian raised an eyebrow, "I remember, what's wrong?"
"She's suing again!"
Wang Li opened the conversation with a long speech.
"She opened a rather shady lingerie shop on the street and hired two women as fitters. She was harassed by street thugs, who also smashed her shop. She sued them for compensation, which was normal. She won the case, and the thugs paid her compensation.
However, her lingerie shop was reported, and the report was made on the grounds that the two scantily clad women were publicly behaving like hooligans. Her shop was also closed down by the higher-ups, and all the lingerie in the shop was destroyed. Li Guiying sued again, demanding that the people who closed her shop compensate her for all her losses. This matter has become a mess!"
Gu Zhinian twitched her lips and said, Li Guiying is too restless. She wants to open a store, sell clothes, sell shoes, and do anything else. But she has to open a lingerie store in this era. Isn't this clearly asking others to find fault with her?
As the two were talking, Li Guiying came again and asked, "Comrade, when will my lawsuit be heard?"
Wang Li said behind people's backs that they felt a little guilty, "Wait for us to investigate and we will notify you when the court hearing is held."
Li Guiying thought the court was giving her a perfunctory treatment.
"How can we investigate this? They destroyed my things, so I need to compensate them according to the price. I don't want the lost rent, utilities, or bills. I just want compensation for the goods."
Wang Li explained: "The court will conduct an investigation before the trial. The trial will only begin after preparations are made."
Li Guiying was extremely anxious. She had borrowed money from many people around her to buy that batch of goods, and they were destroyed just like that. Without compensation, how could she pay back the money others owed? Many people had already gone to her house to make trouble and ask her for money. Luo Weiguo felt ashamed to see the debt collectors coming to his house, and gave her a cold face. The relationship between the couple also reached a freezing point.
She was really anxious! Very anxious!
"Where's the judge? I want to see the judge!"
Li Guiying was making a big fuss. Wang Li and Gu Zhinian were trying to persuade her to calm down. Li Guiying just waved her hands and glared at them.
"How can I stay calm? It's not your money, so you're not the ones worried! I borrowed money to buy these goods. If I can't get compensation, how can I pay them back? They closed my shop. I don't want to say anything about it. Why did they destroy all my goods?"
Li Guiying has been feeling very devastated these days. Her career is not going well, and her married life is not going well either. She wants to live her life again and try hard to create a good life for herself, but her life is not as good as her previous life.
Sun Qiuxia came out with a serious expression, "What are you doing? This is the court, no one is allowed to cause trouble!"
Li Guiying ran over and complained tearfully,
"Judge Sun, please help me. I must get the compensation. I borrowed money to buy those goods. People keep coming to my house to collect debts, and my relationship with my husband has become strained. If this continues, my family will fall apart!"
Sun Qiuxia spoke calmly, "That batch of goods was destroyed by the market manager. Their basis for destroying your goods was that you were promoting obscenity and acting like a hooligan in public. They had legitimate reasons to destroy your goods, and it's difficult for the court to make a judgment."
"Nonsense!" Li Guiying yelled. "The ones who were acting like hooligans were those guys a while ago. I sued them and won. They're reporting me out of revenge and trying to shut down my shop!"
Sun Qiuxia questioned her, "You run a lingerie store and no one else can interfere. Why did you let two girls stand at the door in revealing clothes? This behavior is like... like..."
Sun Qiuxia couldn't say anything, and obviously she didn't agree with Li Guiying's approach. Li Guiying retorted:
"That's the model I hired for my store. It's not what you think. How can you know the effect of the clothes if you don't wear them?"
Li Guiying sat in the court hall and refused to leave. "I'll just sit here and wait for the court session. I must get the compensation back!"
Sun Qiuxia had seen many people like this before, so she ignored them and looked at Wang Li and Gu Zhinian.
"Go and do your thing."
Wang Li dragged Gu Zhinian back to the office quickly. When it was time to get off work, Gu Zhinian left with her bag. Li Guiying caught up with her.
"Xiao Gu, please help me! I must get that compensation back!"
Gu Zhinian was stopped by her and felt unhappy.
"I'm just a small clerk, how can I help you?"
Gu Zhinian avoided her and hurried out of the court. When he was going down the stairs, he was stopped by Li Guiying again.
"Xiao Gu, you are kind-hearted and a good person. I beg you to help me! Those debt collectors come to my house every day, and Weiguo has been kept away from home. If you don't help me, my family will be destroyed!"
Gu Zhinian didn't want to pay attention to her, "You've got the wrong person, right? I'm not someone who meddles in other people's business! Get out of the way!"
Li Guiying fell to her knees on the ground, her face covered in tears.
"Xiao Gu, please help me! Please ask Judge Sun for mercy. I will never forget your kindness!"
At the entrance of the court, a woman was kneeling on the ground crying and people passing by stopped to point and talk.
"What's going on? Look how sadly that woman is crying!"
"The court must have wronged them!"
Gu Zhinian was almost mad, "Li Guiying! What on earth do you want to do!"
"Xiao Gu, please help me!"
Yun Muye noticed the situation at the door and quickly ran over, "Zhi Nian, what's wrong?"
