Xu Laowu is a typical bully who preys on the weak and fears the strong.
He dared not bully Gu Changzheng because Gu Changzheng's infamous reputation in the surrounding villages was simply too widespread. Xu Laowu considered himself a smart man; he would never go out of his way to bully a tough nut like Gu Changzheng.
But it doesn't matter if the man in front of me looks like a farmer; I can bully him!
These honest, simple farmers are the easiest to intimidate.
Having made up his mind, Xu Laowu's gaze swept over Huang Tingxiu's face, making his determination to take advantage of her even stronger.
The way Gu Tiezhu looked at Huang Tingxiu became even more vicious.
"You filthy farmer, I order you to let go of your dirty hands right now, or don't blame me for reporting you for having illicit relationships."
Xu Laowu is a reckless and unruly man, but he is nowhere near Gu Changzheng's level.
Gu Changzheng's level is simply beyond what Xu Laowu and his gang of street thugs who bully men and women can compare to.
The reason Xu Laowu acted this way was because he had connections with a few people in the Red Armband Squad.
In this era where shouting a few slogans can lead to a serious crime, anyone who recognizes someone wearing a red armband is considered to have powerful connections.
At least that's what Xu Laowu thinks.
Therefore, the tone and attitude he used when speaking to Gu Tiezhu were extremely offensive.
But Xu Laowu didn't know that in this world, there are many people who don't show off, but they are not to be bullied at will. Especially since he was so blind as to bully someone he shouldn't have.
How could Gu Tiezhu let go of her hand so easily?
He raised his head and glanced at Xu Laowu.
A hint of disdain appeared on his face, which was etched with the marks of years of hard work.
Xu Laowu felt looked down upon, and his anger flared up instantly!
"What are you looking at? Look again and I'll gouge out your dog eyes and feed them to the dogs!"
Xu Laowu said angrily.
Gu Tiezhu scoffed.
"You think this is your village?"
Xu Laowu blinked.
"What do you mean by that? You think I only dare to mess with you in our village? Let me tell you, I dare to and can mess with a worthless farmer like you no matter where I am!"
As he spoke, he raised his finger as if to poke Gu Tiezhu's forehead and curse him.
This is a very impolite gesture.
People who do such things usually pay the price for their actions.
Sure enough, just as Xu Laowu raised his hand, before he could even poke Gu Tiezhu's forehead, Gu Tiezhu grabbed his arm with his big hand and kicked him in the knee with his toe.
With a cracking sound, Xu Laowu felt as if his knee was about to separate from his body.
He let out a scream and stumbled back several steps in pain. Gu Tiezhu released his grip, and Xu Laowu, losing his balance, stumbled back several steps.
Then he plopped down in the ditch by the roadside.
He fell hard on his backside, getting all his clothes and pants soaked.
Moreover, because of the force of the fall, his pants ripped open from the buttocks. When the Xu family pulled him out of the ditch while he was cursing, his underwear, which was of an indistinguishable color, was revealed.
What's even more surprising is that his underwear also had holes, two round holes on either side of his buttocks, perfectly symmetrical.
"Could that be the hole he made by farting?"
From afar, Lu Huaijiao muttered something to herself in great confusion, and then the next second, Gu Changzheng covered her eyes.
"Don't look, it's dirty!"
Gu Changzheng covered her eyes, preventing her from looking at Xu Laowu's buttocks.
Lu Huaijiao nodded.
"Yeah, his butt is all black, not as white as yours, it's not good-looking."
Gu Changzheng: ...
When did his wife ever see his butt? And even know that his butt is white? But then again, it seems like there's nothing about his wife that he can't see.
Gu Changzheng quickly figured it out for himself and nodded in approval.
"Hmm, so from now on, Jiaojiao can only look at her husband's butt."
Lu Huaijiao gave the man beside her a disdainful look: "Haven't you heard that looking at butts too much can cause styes? Gu Changzheng, who's the villager here? How come I know more about these village customs than you do?"
Gu Changzheng, speechless once again when asked the question: ...
Thank you. Perhaps this isn't a village custom, but simply an excuse used by elders to deceive younger generations and prevent them from doing things they shouldn't?
For example, there are sayings like "eating pig's trotters will make you unable to find a wife," "eating chicken feet will make your handwriting look like chicken feet," and "if you urinate in the road, it will rain when you get married"...
There are many such claims.
Gu Changzheng unfortunately did every single one of them, but as it turns out, none of them proved to be true.
So now we can conclude that those words were just things the elders said to fool their children.
Gu Changzheng, feeling that he had figured out the truth, turned to explain to Lu Huaijiao, only to find that she had already shifted her attention and was staring at Tiezhu and that Huang Zhiqing!
What does it mean when she looks at someone with such an enthusiastic expression?
"Jiaojiao..."
"Shh, be quiet!" Lu Huaijiao interrupted Gu Changzheng, telling him to shut up, and looked towards Gu Tiezhu and the others: "Did you see that? Huang Zhiqing and Brother Tiezhu might be getting together."
It can only be said that women are all naturally inclined to gossip.
Even for someone like Lu Huaijiao, who had lived to be twenty-eight in her previous life, it wouldn't be surprising. She looked at Gu Tiezhu and the others with excitement, practically shouting that she wanted to marry him.
Gu Changzheng: ...
His wife always manages to bring him 'surprises'.
"Honey, baby, we're pregnant, should we go home first?"
It was a chaotic scene over there; the Xu family and Gu Changqing were still arguing amongst themselves. Gu Changzheng, as the younger brother, didn't care about the matter at all.
In his view, Gu Changqing's current predicament is entirely of his own making and has nothing to do with anyone else. Although Gu Changzheng is his younger brother, he will not pay the price for Gu Changqing's reckless behavior.
There is only one person who can make Gu Changzheng protect him unconditionally and without thinking.
But at this moment, this person is watching other men and women with great interest, wanting to rush up and press their heads together.
This left Gu Changzheng feeling extremely frustrated.
He always seems to be the one who attracts Jiaojiao the least.
"Jiaojiao..."
"Gu Changzheng, do you think Huang Zhiqing might offer herself to him in return?"
Lu Huaijiao, an onlooker, was completely unaware of her husband's 'sentimentality'; she only cared about Gu Tiezhu and Huang Tingxiu.
She was very curious to know how Huang Tingxiu would react to Gu Tiezhu's help today.
