It was already eleven o'clock when I got home.
The two had just arrived home and hadn't had time to put their things down when they heard Dani's voice: "Uncle, uncle."
"Run slower, Dani. What's wrong? You look like you're being chased by a dog." Li Qingyun quickly comforted her.
"Uncle, my uncle and his family are here. My grandma asked me to sneak out and ask you to go over, fearing that if a fight breaks out there will be no one at home to support them." Dani said, panting.
Li Qingyun instructed Dabao to pour water for his sister Dani, and asked Gu Tingzhou to go and see her first. She would go there after making arrangements at home.
As for Sun Zhiqiang, ever since he found out that Gu Tinghua had picked the lock and left, his family knew that it was over. However, after waiting for a whole day yesterday, they found that there was no movement.
Gu Tinghua probably didn't want to break up, so Sun's parents quickly took a leave of absence and went to the commune early this morning to buy some snacks, and then pretended to come to the house.
Sun's mother knew that Gu Tinghua was very concerned about his reputation and didn't want to fall out with him easily, nor did she dare to make a big fuss. However, she was unhappy about her son's affair with someone outside.
So the whole family was prepared to accept any beatings and punishments today. As long as they could coax her back, they would have the final say in the future.
Only Sun Zhiqiang was extremely reluctant. He knew that Gu Tinghua's second brother was also at home. Both of her brothers were not easy to deal with and would definitely not let him go easily.
He considered himself a scholar and was unwilling to be a barbarian who raised his fists at every turn. However, such a person did all kinds of disgusting things.
When Gu Tingzhou entered the courtyard, he saw Sun Zhiqiang kneeling in the yard with a cane on his back, looking like he was asking for forgiveness.
Sun's father and mother pretended to cry and say something beside them, while Gu's parents and eldest brother Gu Tinghua said nothing and glared at each other.
"Oh, it seems I came at the wrong time." Gu Tingzhou walked over and looked at the people from the Sun family.
Gu Tinghua breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her second brother coming in. With her second brother around, the Sun family couldn't cause any trouble.
The eldest brother has always been a loudmouth with little action since he was a child, while the second brother is like a barking dog that bites, hitting the target with one strike, leaving no room for regret. To deal with the Sun family, it has to be her second brother.
"You're Tinghua's second brother, right? I'm really sorry. It's my fault for not raising him well. Zhiqiang is too soft-hearted and always trusts others easily. He really didn't do this willingly this time. He was set up.
I brought him here this time just to apologize to Tinghua and you guys. You rebellious son, why don't you admit your mistake to Tinghua and promise not to do it again." Sun's father said humbly and kicked Sun Zhiqiang.
Sun Zhiqiang tearfully assured me, "Tinghua, Mom and Dad, Big Brother and Second Brother, all the mistakes are my fault. I shouldn't have trusted others so easily without any precautions. I promise to live a good life with Tinghua in the future and treat Tinghua and the child well. Please believe me this time."
Gu Tingzhou looked at him with some disdain. It would be a waste of this guy's talent if he didn't become an actor.
Gu Tinghua was pregnant and was sentimental by nature. Seeing this scene, she felt a little soft-hearted, but when she thought about him being with another woman, she felt disgusted.
She forced herself to be cruel, especially when she thought about how they had locked her up at home and were now doing all these fake tricks, simply to capture her and prevent her from exposing their son's scandals, fearing that it would affect his future.
Thinking of this, Gu Tinghua bit his lips tightly to prevent himself from crying.
"Is it as you said? Why don't I ask your mistress and give you justice? You are right. Your family has locked Tinghua up at home for so many days?
Sun Zhiqiang, you are a real man, but you did such a shameless thing. How dare you come to Tinghua and beg her to go back with you? Do you think the daughter of our Gu family is easy to bully?
Aren't you going to apologize by carrying a thorn stick on your back? Fine, first endure this beating from me, and then we can talk about other things."
Gu Tingzhou felt nauseous after hearing this. He grabbed the bramble at his feet, walked forward, and hit Sun Zhiqiang on the back several times.
Sun Zhiqiang was beaten so hard that he cried and screamed, and rolled on the ground. Gu Tingzhou still refused to stop, and the whip fell on him as if it had eyes.
"Mom and Dad, save me. Wow, it hurts so much. It hurts so much." This time he really cried, his face covered with tears and snot.
This guy really had the heart to hit someone, and it made Sun's mother and father dumbfounded.
Sun's mother quickly stepped forward to grab Gu Tingzhou's hand, trying to take the thorn stick away. "Her second brother, you can't hit her anymore, you can't hit her anymore."
Li Qingyun had been standing at the door watching the show for a while. Now that she saw Sun's mother helping, how could she let her do as she wished? She hurried forward and grabbed Sun's mother's hand to stop her.
Although she also disliked her sister-in-law, any scumbag should be punished.
"Auntie, don't go over there, be careful not to hurt anyone. Such a thin twig, how can it hurt?
Isn't this the thorn you brought as a token of your apology? If you don't use it, it won't show your sincerity."
Mother Sun thought that this little girl was very strong and held her hands tightly. She looked at her son who was suffering on the ground with anxiety.
She only has this one son, who was raised in pampering since childhood and had everything he wanted. He had never suffered such hardship. She and the man had never touched a finger on him.
If it weren't for the grandson in Gu Tinghua's belly and her son's face, she would not have let her son come to apologize and suffer such a punishment.
Why not let him suffer a little? The fight had already happened, so after this one, let the Gu family vent their anger and the matter would be over.
Seeing that his mother was being entangled, Sun's father also hurried forward to "intervene", "Her second brother, stop hitting her, that's enough, if you hit her again, it will hurt her. He already knows he is wrong, I will take good care of him from now on."
Big Brother Gu stopped Father Gu directly: "Uncle, please don't go. Be careful of my second brother's hands, or he might hurt you again."
Gu's father and mother felt so relieved. This was how they should deal with him. He was a bastard who dared to treat their daughter like this.
Sun Zhiqiang screamed in pain from being beaten. Gu Tingzhou hit him hard every time and made him roll on the ground. He used the slender rattan stick with skillful force. It seemed that it fell on his body lightly, but it was actually very painful, as if it was hitting his soul.
Seeing that his parents couldn't help him, he endured the pain all over his body, used all his strength to get up from the ground, and ran away.
Gu Laoer went crazy. He felt that he was being beaten to death. If he didn't run away, his life would be in danger.
When Sun's father and mother saw their son running away, they hurried to chase him.
Mother Sun turned around and said something cruel: "Your family is too bullying. If you hurt my son, Tinghua will have a hard time for the rest of his life."
After saying that, he also picked up the snacks that he had brought from the ground.
Because the situation was quite big, neighbors came to ask what was going on. Gu's mother was in no mood to deal with it, so she said it was just a conflict between a young couple and it was no big deal, and sent them away.
The family sat together and discussed how to deal with the matter.
Before Gu's father and mother said anything, Gu Tinghua could no longer sit still.
"Second brother, you just need to teach him a lesson. Why did you beat him like that? Now he's running away. What's the matter with me being stuck in the middle?"
Gu Tingzhou thought that his sister was hopeless and would most likely go down the same path as in her previous life. He tried his best to save her, but she kept courting death.
Li Qingyun rolled her eyes speechlessly.
