The whole village was in an uproar. The Zhou family had specially set up a table to celebrate Zhou Nier's admission to university. It was for this reason that the village party secretary agreed to let his daughter go to Shanghai to follow Zhou Nier to broaden her horizons.
Who knew that such a big thing would happen just a few days after he left. He immediately took his uncles and brothers to Zhou's house to make trouble.
