Zhao Tiezhu was thoroughly humiliated by the scolding.
Li Guihua cried her heart out.
The old village chief called for people to carry the person away.
However, Gu Guanhai stepped on Zhao Tiezhu's face again.
"Remember today's lesson!"
He squinted and said threateningly, "If you dare to cause trouble again, I'll beat you every time I see you! I'll even bury you if I kill you!"
Zhao Tiezhu: "!!!"
They were so frightened they were trembling.
Upon seeing this, the old village chief and others quickly carried the person away.
As the crowd dispersed, Yu Mingxiang, recalling the old village chief's earlier words, turned to Gu Guanhai and asked, "You hit her before because he abused his daughter?"
She always thought that Gu Guanhai hit Zhao Tiezhu because he didn't like Zhao Tiezhu.
Unexpectedly, he was standing up for her daughter?
Their eyes met.
"I just couldn't stand it, so I hit him."
Gu Guanhai replied dismissively, "I have to go back and break bricks, I'm leaving now!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned to leave, but Yu Mingxiang called out to him.
What do you want to eat tonight?
Gu Guanhai turned around upon hearing this and smiled.
"I want to eat stewed pork from Beijing."
"..."
That night.
Having witnessed everything that happened during the day, Xue Ru, who ate stewed pork for dinner, whispered in her husband's ear again.
"So, Uncle Gu beat Zhao Tiezhu before because he was standing up for our sister?"
"Yes! He helped Mom and me out of a predicament again today. Weiguo, the more I look at Uncle Gu, the more I think he's a really good person!"
"Okay, let's take another look. The final decision depends on Mom's opinion."
"..."
Two days later, Gu Guanhai indeed built two large kang beds in the backyard.
Looking at the kang (heated brick bed) that had been set up in the room, Qin Weiguo knew that his wife and children would have a warm kang this winter.
He specially asked someone in town to help him get a pot of wine to entertain Gu Guanhai.
That evening, the three men drank and chatted happily.
Yu Mingxiang and her daughter-in-law exchanged glances. Seeing the mockery in her daughter-in-law's eyes, she felt somewhat helpless, but...
It is a fact that their family and Gu Guanhai are getting along better and better.
After the incident at the Zhao family's place, Yu Mingxiang originally wanted to find an opportunity to secretly teach them a lesson again, but after learning that Zhao Tiezhu and his son had been beaten and returned home, they were both bedridden, so she couldn't be bothered to deal with them anymore.
Moreover, having learned from the example of the Zhao family father and son, no one dared to cause trouble at the clinic anymore, and her and her daughter-in-law's work proceeded smoothly.
Several more days passed.
One late night.
Yu Mingxiang, who had already gone to bed, was suddenly awakened by a knock on the door. She got dressed and went to the front yard, only to find that it was a grandmother and grandson who had been sent down to Hedao Village.
"Dr. Yu, my granddaughter-in-law is about to give birth, could you please come and take a look?"
With graying temples and a weary expression, Cui Guangxuan bowed to Yu Mingxiang and said, "I know my request is a bit presumptuous, but people of our status won't even come to ask a midwife, and even if we go to the town hospital, they won't treat us. We have no other choice..."
"Dr. Yu, please, please go and see Jinhe!"
As Cui Hongwei was about to kneel down, Yu Mingxiang quickly reached out and helped him up.
"Go! I'm coming right now!"
Out of instinct, she agreed to the task. However, when she turned and saw Gu Guanhai's solemn expression, her expression changed slightly.
In that era when the "ninth graders" were universally condemned, anyone associated with them was likely to be labeled as such.
Yu Mingxiang was a person who was sent to the countryside in her previous life. She empathized with the plight of the Cui family grandfather and grandson. However, even Yu Mingxiang hesitated if it meant sacrificing her own family for them.
Meeting her anxious gaze, Gu Guanhai smiled slightly.
"Go ahead! I'll take responsibility if anything goes wrong."
