How could he have agreed to such an unreasonable request? Perhaps he was so eager to bury the hatchet with Qingshan Village that he lost his mind and allowed Qingshan Village to invade Xiangyang Village.
Aunt Lu was very worried and regretted that she did not stop her husband from making mistakes. She had always thought that Sister Gu Yarou and Sister Wan had a good relationship. Even if there was some discord, they were still connected. She thought that they were sisters, and it was natural for the elder sister to be the boss of the younger sister.
During this period, he even heard Gu Yarou and Xu Luoxue mention Gu Wanwan's past. Somehow, he vaguely imagined that Gu Yarou was bullied by Wanjie. Later, his heart was gradually deceived, and he thought that Wanwan bullied the weak. He forgot Wanjie's experience and her contribution to Xiangyang Village.
Now the two elders of the Gu family have personally admitted that Sister Wan has a bad relationship with them. It is Gu Yarou and Xu Luoxue's parents who are heartless, ungrateful, and stab their own relatives. If they were betrayed by their own children, could they accept it?
The real truth is that Wan's sister and brother were tortured and abused by Xu Luoxue, beaten to the point of losing their memories, and separated from their family, all in order to force them to reveal the secrets of power and treasure.
So the villagers of Qingshan Village really came to Xiangyang Village for the treasure, and the agreement between Captain Qingshan and his wife was all for the purpose of smoothly entering the village and the mountains.
Let’s look at Gu Yarou. After she went to the countryside, she never revealed her relationship with the old man in the cowshed, nor did she offer any warmth to him in private. If she wanted to help her grandparents, why didn’t she stop Xu Luoxue from bullying the old man?
Xu Luoxue always listens to Gu Yarou's advice. As long as Gu Yarou is willing to take action, Xu Luoxue will definitely give her face.
At this point, it’s no wonder that Sister Wan is disappointed in the couple, and no wonder that Li Wute and the others are trying to pass the blame.
"Sister Wan, I'm sorry..."
Zheng Shican rolled his eyes. "Sorry's useless. Do you have the money to pay me back? Even if I emptied your house, it wouldn't be enough. Captain, you've done this to me. No one else can do this!"
Deng Xiunv really couldn't stand her in-laws. "Fortunately, we've already separated. Otherwise, our hard-earned fortune would have been squandered by our clueless in-laws sooner or later. It would have been shameful."
Li Wute was determined to shirk his responsibility and stay out of it. "If you want to find someone, find Zhao Guoming. He's too careless and unworthy of being the captain of Xiangyang Village. I'll report this to the public and ask them to appoint a new captain. That way..."
Gu Wanwan interrupted him, "And then successfully eliminate Zhao Guoming and install your people in his place? Zhao Guoming is just cannon fodder for you and Xu Luoxue and the others, right?"
"See clearly? You two are so stupid that you were cheated!"
Zhao Guoming and Aunt Lu's expressions suddenly changed, and they stared at Gu Yarou and others with wide eyes in disbelief.
Gu Wanwan ignored the dejected couple and continued with a smile, "Li Wute, it doesn't matter if you don't want to compensate me. I'm actually very interested in the mountains near your Qingshan Village. I heard there's a foggy area in the mountains near your village, full of wild animals and mountain products. Do you mind if I take a look around?"
Li Wute was firm, "No!"
Gu Wanwan insisted on being herself. "You villagers keep coming to Xiangyang Village like you're entering the kitchen, so why shouldn't I do the same? You can't be so hypocritical. Don't you understand the importance of reciprocity?"
"You say no, but I won't listen. I'm going to your Qingshan Village tomorrow and dig up things from your mountain to see what earth-shattering secrets you have. I'm so curious. It's a deal."
