Ma Liu couldn't stand Dong Chunxiao's bad temper. At first, he didn't take it seriously, just like a dog barking. But later, he even started cursing. Do you think the old man could swallow this?
Especially when the other party cursed him with the words "may he be childless and without descendants," it definitely hit a nerve. Even Jiang Weihan couldn't stop him. The old man stormed out of the house, opened the door, and started cursing at Dong Chunxiao outside.
"What are you? You ungrateful wretch! You still have the nerve to mention the Gu family? I'm ashamed for you. In all these years, have you ever asked about the Gu family or cared about them?"
Back then, the Gu family members were either dead or gone. Did you ask them a single question? Did you come back to check on them?
Now you're playing the good guy, talking about caring for the family? You have no shame! Are you even a member of the Gu family? Haha, the Gu family are the landlords, and since you're so eager to claim kinship with your maternal family, we can't very well refuse, can we?
"Alright, Dong Chunxiao, I'll come over there later. I'll have to give the leadership a good talking-to about how you, the capitalist's wife, have been insulting and bullying this old man all alone."
Dong Chunxiao was so embarrassed after Ma Liu exposed her secrets that she couldn't save face. She pushed Ma Liu and rushed into the yard.
Even Ma Liu couldn't bring himself to lay a hand on a woman, but Jiang Qiao, who was behind her, stopped Dong Chunxiao and glanced at the two people following behind her.
"Get out of here! This family's surname is Ma now!"
Jiang Qiao didn't want to waste words with Dong Chunxiao, and pushed Dong Chunxiao to try to leave the courtyard.
But to her surprise, Dong Chunxiao acted like a shrew, sitting right there in the courtyard and starting to wail.
"Look at this traitor! He's helping outsiders bully his own family! Captain, you have to stand up for me! I'm a married woman returning to my parents' home, and I'm being bullied by my nephew! This is unacceptable anywhere!"
Jiang Qiao looked coldly at Dong Chunxiao on the ground, then glared angrily at the two people in front of her who were itching to make a move.
"Bullshit! We're two different families. You're surnamed Dong and I'm surnamed Jiang. If you want to cry, go cry at your father's grave. Coming here to make a scene, don't you even know where your own father's grave is?"
Hmph, Dong Chunxiao, if you don't know, I can tell you where your father is buried. The Gu family members you've been framing aren't like you pigs and dogs. They've been taking care of your father's grave all this time.
I'll say it again: get out of this yard right now, or you won't be getting the same treatment you just received.
Dong Chunxiao's children clearly didn't take Jiang Qiao seriously. What a little brat! She thinks her family is easy to bully. Even though they are capitalists, their reputation is still better than that of landlords.
The woman lunged at Jiang Qiao, yelling, "You dare bully my mother! I'll scratch you to death!"
Jiang Xiuqi and the others came out to break up the fight; no matter what, they couldn't let Jiang Qiao suffer a loss.
But before they could even make a move, Jiang Qiao was faster and kicked the woman away.
"How dare you! You dare to fight us in Gu Family Village? How many heads do you have?"
The woman got up, groaning and yelling, and shouted at her dumbfounded brother, "Are you dead? Why aren't you coming to help? The landlord's granddaughter is going to kill someone! Captain, you can't just stand by and do nothing!"
Jiang Qiao snorted coldly, "Don't ask the captain. It's true that I'm the granddaughter of a landlord, but I'm also a soldier's child. What, you want to bully a military family member? Oh, you've got some nerve, Captain. Shouldn't we arrest her and interrogate her?"
Jiang Xiuqi laughed from the side, "I think it's a good idea. Bullying military families is a serious crime—"
As soon as Jiang Qiao and the others started crying, the neighbors all rushed over to watch the spectacle. There wasn't much entertainment these days; even a fight or a shouting match could give everyone a good laugh.
As soon as Jiang Xiuqi spoke, the onlookers, unafraid of causing more trouble, said, "Captain, let's arrest these three people."
Before Dong Chunxiao arrived, many people didn't know who she was. But since she came, those old stories have been brought up again by the older generation. Even those who didn't know the truth now know about this ungrateful person.
Besides, the villagers know how the Gu family treats them. They are fortunate that the Gu family has secretly helped them in the past two years. Otherwise, no one knows how many people would be left in their village.
In addition, Jiang Qiao and Qiao Jie treated the villagers, which was truly benevolent. The families who had saved the children, in particular, were even more displeased when they saw Dong Chunxiao and her two children throwing a tantrum.
The woman put her hands on her hips and started cursing. Jiang Qiao was their family's benefactor, and they couldn't stand by and watch such a scoundrel bully them.
Qi Xiang even ran back to get a bundle of rope, ready to tie someone up at any time.
If Dong Chunxiao still can't understand this, then all these years she's really wasted.
"Captain, you can't treat us like this. What's wrong with me, a married woman, going back to my parents' home to visit them?"
Look at these two things. They won't even let me into our ancestral home. Is that reasonable? I just wanted to come and pay my respects. Is that wrong?
Look at how they treat us. They have no respect for their elders and they all speak rudely to us. If you don't stand up for me, who can I turn to for help?
Besides, since this house is going to be sold, why not sell it to me? I've lived here for so many years; if I buy it, at least I'll repay the Gu family for raising me all these years. What wrong have I done?"
Before Jiang Qiao could even speak, Gu Hanting, who had heard the news, squeezed in.
"Dong Chunxiao, if you have a problem, you can come at me. What's the point of arguing with Jiang Qiao, a junior? Our Gu family's affairs are none of your business as an outsider."
Furthermore, since the house has already been taken over by the team, the team leader can make the decision. I have no objections. I only ask that the person who buys the house take good care of it. I have no other requests.
I, surnamed Gu, won't say anything else, but what right do you, surnamed Dong, have to point fingers and criticize me?"
Upon hearing Gu Hanting's words, Dong Chunxiao was stunned for a moment, then covered her face and wept, "Big brother, I knew you were angry with me. It's not that I didn't want to contact the family, it's just that things are difficult for me there too—"
Gu Hanting glanced at the mother and her two children indifferently, and sighed, "Dong Chunxiao, you've seen this person, and you've been to Gu Family Village. Go back tomorrow. If you really want to, go visit your father's grave."
After saying that, he walked over and pulled Jiang Qiao aside, asking with concern, "Girl, they didn't hit you, did they?"
Jiang Qiao shook her head. "Grandpa, they did scold me, and she even came here to act like a scoundrel because she's an elder."
Jiang Qiao rarely acted coquettishly, and her adorable appearance made the onlookers feel sorry for her.
“Tell them to get out of our Gujia Village tomorrow. We haven’t even had the chance to scold Jiang Qiao yet. What gives you the right? Who do you think you are? Do you really think there’s no one left in Gujia Village? If you don’t get out, we’ll call the police tomorrow to arrest you and let them know you can’t run wild here.”
