When Shen Ningsi received the news and hurried over, this was exactly the scene he saw.
Gu Hong had a smile on his face, but his eyes were cold, which was a sign of his anger.
She walked around Gu Hong calmly and whispered something to him.
"General, don't worry about the affairs between women. Please go back."
Gu Hong probably couldn't handle this kind of unreasonable woman, and he would get into trouble for no reason.
After seeing Gu Hong leave, she walked up to the shrew.
"It's indeed something that can be solved with just a stretch of the hand." Shen Ningsi smiled, "But so what? Why should I give things to you casually?"
Shen Ningsi finally accepted the fact that Gu Sanshui was Gu Hong.
She lay in bed for a long time, analyzing Gu Hong's actions step by step before she came up with a way to live in peace with Gu Hong for the time being.
Just as he closed his eyes, the noise outside woke him up.
She didn't want to argue with Gu Hong's people, but she couldn't bear to see her child suffer.
"You're the one yelling, saying that Wen'er did something wrong?"
Aunt Zhang kept her mouth tightly shut and refused to speak.
Shen Ningsi said calmly: "The child stopped you outside because of my instructions. If you have anything to say, just tell me. There is no need to blame the children."
The noise outside startled Gu Yuner who was taking a nap. She walked out the door and saw that it was Aunt Zhang. Her face turned pale.
Yun'er held onto Shen Ningsi tightly and said cautiously, "Mother, don't go over there. That person... is very fierce..."
"Yun'er knows this aunt?"
Gu Yuner had tears in her eyes and seemed to be very frightened.
Shen Ningsi frowned immediately, “Aunt Zhang, what did you do to Yun’er?”
"What can I do? I've never even seen her, Gu Yun'er!" The woman frantically explained, visibly panicking. "Who knows why this little girl is deliberately acting so aggrieved?"
With Shen Ningsi by her side, Gu Yuner mustered up the courage and said aggrievedly: "You are a bad person. You often bully Yuner! You say Yuner is a cheap hoof and a money-loser. You also tell others not to play with me and bully me..."
"You stupid girl! How dare you talk nonsense!" Aunt Zhang was furious.
Seeing that everyone in the Gu family was staring at her covetously, she panicked and said quickly, "You won't believe what an ignorant little girl says! Can a child's words be counted?"
How dare you insult her child in front of her?
Shen Ningsi's face turned cold. He first pulled Gu Xiuwu who was about to rush forward, then rubbed Gu Yuner's hair and said softly: "Yuner, be good and go back with your brother first."
Gu Xiuwen picked up Gu Yuner and quickly returned to the house.
Shen Ningsi watched the two figures disappear around the corner, then looked back at Aunt Zhang.
"You bullied Yun'er, how dare you come to me and ask me to help you?"
"Why didn't I know you were such a petty person before?" Aunt Zhang was still stubborn.
Ultimately, human nature is evil.
When she was criticized by the majority, those who did not criticize her were the odd ones out. In order to protect themselves, they would naturally speak ill of her.
Shen Ningsi has always been very open-minded about this.
The only reason that could make her so angry was that Aunt Zhang had touched someone she cared about.
"You should never, ever mess with a child."
Shen Ningsi's eyes were cold, "Yun'er is a naive child with such a well-behaved personality. Even if you don't like her, you shouldn't let others bully Yun'er."
Aunt Zhang was completely embarrassed. She pouted and said, "How do I know those kids will really listen to me? Besides, don't you think about why you only bully Gu Yun'er instead of others? What if there's something wrong with Gu Yun'er herself?"
"Is it Yun'er's own fault that you only bully her?"
Shen Ningsi laughed in anger, "Then the Gu family's army's food is the only one not distributed to your family, so it should be your family's problem only?"
Aunt Zhang no longer cared about the pain when she heard this. She opened her eyes wide with horror and said, "Shen Ningsi, how dare you?! I am your elder! Those foods are life-saving!"
Seeing Shen Ningsi’s expressionless face, she turned her attention to Gu Hong again, “You dare to bully your elders. If this matter gets out, will Gu Hong still be able to be an official safely in the capital?”
"He won't stop me from doing what I want to do."
Shen Ningsi patted his sleeves and said, "Let's go now and we can put an end to this. Or, let's spread the news about your harsh treatment of Yun'er and see what Gu Hong will do when he finds out."
Her voice was calm and her eyes were cold.
Gu Hong had earned his military exploits through fighting on the battlefield. If he knew that someone was bullying Yun'er when he was away, one can imagine what this killer would do.
Aunt Zhang was so scared that she ran away in a panic, and those clansmen who were originally aggressive couldn't help but take a step back.
Shen Ningsi couldn't help but sneer in his heart as he noticed the actions of the crowd.
Even though it was Aunt Zhang who took the lead, Shen Ningsi knew that without the secret instructions of these people, this woman would not be so arrogant.
If they truly respected them, they would have stopped Aunt Zhang long ago. How could they remain silent?
Shen Ningsi gently patted the non-existent dust on the hem of her skirt. "Except for Uncle Gu, you can all leave. I can still give you a kind word of advice now. If you continue to make trouble like this, I don't mind tearing my face off with you."
No one thought Shen Ningsi was lying. Her face was cold and she looked like she was going to turn her back on them.
Now everyone relies on Shen Ningsi's ability to have enough food to eat. If they fall out with Shen Ningsi, they will be the only ones who suffer!
Uncle Gu obviously didn’t expect that Shen Ningsi would take the initiative to keep him.
Watching all the people he was traveling with leave, he took a deep breath and said, "Ms. Shen, it was Uncle San who didn't do it well, and he followed them to embarrass you."
Shen Ningsi looked at the man in front of him, who had a few more fine lines than he remembered, and smiled softly.
"Of course I don't welcome people like Third Uncle to come here."
"They've caused me so much trouble in the past, and now they want me to help them. I naturally disagree, but you should also know that you are different from them."
The person in front of him is the patriarch of the Gu family who has the most say.
In the past, Shen Ningsi would be very afraid when she saw him and was unwilling to get close to him.
In addition, after she married Gu Hong, everyone in the Gu family mocked her, so Shen Ningsi never dealt with these people in the clan.
"Uncle San, since Gu Hong left, our whole family has not been doing well. If you hadn't secretly helped us and sent us some rice soup from time to time, I'm afraid these children wouldn't have survived."
