The peasant woman was very excited because there was something exciting to watch.
But when she thought of the shameless people in the Zhao family who actually came to bully a newly widowed beauty like Gu, the peasant woman instinctively became angry.
shameless!
Such a beautiful person, oh no, such a pitiful person, they all come to bully her!
Do you really think there is no justice in this world?
Or do you still think that Zhaojiazhuang doesn’t follow the rules of their ancestors?
Zhaojiazhuang, as the name suggests, most of the people living here have the surname Zhao.
It is said that one or two hundred years ago, a pair of brothers who fled from war settled here.
After generations of reproduction, the huge Zhaojiazhuang was formed.
Counting up three generations, they are basically all relatives, and many villagers are not even five generations away from each other.
Zhaojiazhuang is a village where clans live together, so there is a clan temple and a clan leader.
Normally, the clan leader would not be too overbearing and would not interfere in the family affairs of the clan members at will.
But if the matter becomes too serious and affects the reputation of Zhaojiazhuang, the clan leader will stand up and uphold justice.
If the situation is too serious, the person will most likely be expelled from the Zhao clan and driven out of Zhaojiazhuang!
When Zhao Guodong was sent away to live on his own by his biased parents, the clan leader was somewhat unhappy.
Fortunately, Zhao Guodong did not make a fuss, but obediently accepted his fate and went to the city to make a living by himself. Only then did the patriarch stop arguing with the Zhao family.
Now that Zhao Guodong is gone, given the partiality of the two old men in the Zhao family and the greed of the Zhao brothers, it is only natural that they would go and bully the Gu mother and son.
If the Gu family was like Zhao Guodong, not making a fuss and allowing themselves to be bullied, the clan leader would not interfere.
But if the Gu family makes a fuss, things will not end well!
Not only the peasant woman just now, but also the other villagers who were watching, had thought of this.
They all became excited and followed behind Gu's mother and son, trying to watch the first scene!
"Mr. Zhao, you're not feeling well yet, why did you go out with the child?"
There was a curious aunt in the crowd who couldn't hold back any longer and asked.
"My child, my child is hungry. There is no food at home. My mother-in-law asked me for money. I took the child to the old house to eat!"
Gu Qingcheng's body was indeed weak enough.
Even though he was supported by his sons, he was still panting.
She spoke these two sentences in a halting manner for a long time. Looking at her pale face and unsteady steps, it seemed as if she would choke and pass out from her own breathing in the next second.
Although the group of people came to watch the fun, they were all neighbors, or even relatives with not too distant blood ties.
In addition, Zhao Guodong is a doctor. If anyone in the village has a headache, fever, or bleeding skin, he will help.
There is no consultation fee, only a small amount of medicine fee.
If the family is really in financial difficulty, even the money for medicine will be waived.
Therefore, Zhao Guodong has a very good reputation in Zhaojiazhuang. Even if some people in the village are jealous of his good life, at most they will say a few words behind his back.
But now Zhao Guodong is dead, leaving only his sick wife and young son. The villagers can only feel sympathy and pity for him.
Seeing that Gu was so sick that he couldn't even walk, but still wanted to go to the old house, everyone was a little angry.
Listen to what Gu said?
Hungry!
There is no food at home!
The silver was also taken away by the old woman of the Zhao family!
The old couple from the Zhao family really went to bully the orphans and their widows.
They are Zhao Guodong's biological parents, but they are worse than outsiders and only know how to bully their daughter-in-law and grandson.
After hearing what his mother said, Zhao Qingyun almost stumbled.
He really wanted to say: Well, even though the people from the old house came to plot, they didn’t dare to do anything too drastic.
There was no drama of robbing food or silver.
Although they are shameless, they still have some dignity.
Furthermore, if her mother does not remarry, she will be a wife of the Zhao family.
The people in the old house did not dare to rob people openly.
Firstly, the Zhao clan would not agree, and secondly, the group of "butchers" in the Gu family were not just for show.
But, these two sentences from my own mother gave outsiders endless speculation.
Zhao Qingyun was so smart that he didn't even need to ask. He only needed to think about what the villagers would think after hearing what their own mother said.
The wife fell ill due to the heavy blow of her husband's sudden death.
The two children were so small and weak that they were of no use at all.
Instead of helping, my husband's family comes to bully me.
They stole food and money, leaving the orphans and widows starving.
This forced Gu, a poor woman who was so sick that she couldn't even get up, to go to her husband's house step by step to beg for food!
Zhao Qingyun: ...As a party involved, I know all the truth.
But if he continued to guess blindly along this line of thought, he would feel so pitiful!
However, the fact is——
They were indeed hungry, not because they had nothing to eat, but because no one cooked for them.
Grandma did come to my mother to ask for money, but it was before, not after my father passed away.
A Niang didn't tell a single lie, but people still misunderstood her.
Huh?
This one seems pretty good too.
Unconsciously, the door to a new world quietly opened before Zhao Qingyun...
