Old Man Su and his eldest son were definitely unwilling, and were about to speak when the village chief interrupted them. "You two shouldn't say anything more, unless you want your wives to die. And with two executed criminals in your family, your family will be forever condemned to shame. Your four children are all unmarried. With an executed grandmother and mother, what son will marry you, what daughter will marry into your family?"
If you don't want this matter to escalate and ruin the reputation of your Su family, then stop dragging it out. And don't try to use filial piety to pressure the Guomin family. When they did these things, did they not consider that Guomin's daughter is their own granddaughter and niece?
This family did everything they could, and yet they still suspect someone else's daughter is possessed by a ghost. Why don't they consider whether they themselves might be the ones possessed? The village chief grew increasingly angry and started speaking recklessly. It was only after the brigade leader pulled him back that he realized what he had said.
Old Su family, let me tell you, this matter is settled. Go back, get the money, and take the girl home. If this weren't something that couldn't be publicized, these two would still be receiving criticism and education from the village. From now on, stay away from Guomin's daughter. Always catching up with other people's girls and harming them, aren't you adults ashamed?
And I hope this is the last time. If you cause any more trouble and harm others or violate discipline, don't blame us for kicking you out of Sujia Village. Whichever village wants to take you in then, so be it. Anyway, Sujia Village will not tolerate anyone who goes against the rules.
The village chief's full-on attack stunned both Old Man Su and Old Man Su. Thinking of what the village chief had said, they unconsciously bent their backs a little. Old Man Su thought that his family had lived in Su Family Village for generations. If they were driven out of the village, even the graves of his ancestors for eighteen generations would not be able to hold them back.
Old Su sighed and dragged his heavy steps home to get the money. He suddenly realized that his eldest son was utterly useless when something happened. When he needed money, he didn't utter a word. One was his own mother, and the other was his wife. Perhaps it was true, as the elders said, that keeping a son who only sponges off his parents and driving away a filial son would lead to his future regret.
At this moment, Su Xingran also came out of the room. She had woken up earlier, but as a child, it wasn't appropriate for her to participate in the adults' negotiations. She called out to everyone present: Village Chief Uncle, Brigade Leader Uncle, Uncle, Father, Mother.
"Xingran, are you alright?" The village chief asked Su Xingran with concern. He felt that this girl always seemed to attract trouble from the Su family. This was the second time the Su family had done this, each time more severe than the last, and there was also the time with the Zhang family. Could this girl be cursed with bad luck? Otherwise, why was she always so unlucky, encountering these kinds of things?
The village chief's gaze was so intense that Su Xingran found it strange. She felt as if he were studying her, or perhaps even pitying her. Maybe he felt sorry for her being treated this way by her grandmother and aunt. Yes, that must be it; Uncle Village Chief was truly a good village chief. Poor Su Xingran had no idea that the village chief thought she was just unlucky, always encountering these misfortunes.
He Ergu, who had been unconscious, slowly woke up. The first thing she saw when she opened her eyes was a room full of people. She giggled and called out to the village chief, the brigade leader, Su's father, Su Laoda, "Uncle," "Auntie," and "Sister Su Xingran." The village chief and the others shuddered. An elderly woman with white hair calling people much younger than her "Uncle" was a nightmare. Su's mother and Su Xingran were also speechless, especially Su Xingran, a woman nearing seventy years old calling a thirteen-year-old "Sister." She could say it, but Su Xingran didn't dare respond.
