Chapter Twenty-Five: What a beautiful dream!



Gu Sang looked at the group of people from the Gu family with icy eyes.

They actually had the nerve to say those things.

Whose fault is all of this? Is it really true, as they say, that it's all Gu Sang's fault?

They're so blatant and shameless in their attempt to twist the facts.

"So... I deserve to die?"

Gu Yingfu actually agreed with Gu Sang's words, but it was not appropriate to say it out loud, so he snorted and remained silent.

Clearly, in Gu Yingfu's opinion, this is what he deserved!

Seeing the chaotic state of the family, Gu Dekang slammed his fist on the table.

"Third son's wife! What's wrong with your daughter! If you don't know how to discipline her, send her back and I'll teach her a lesson! What kind of behavior is this! She even dared to point a kitchen knife at her own grandmother, is she trying to turn the world upside down?!"

It must be said that Gu Dekang was indeed frightened just now.

But if he gets scared again, then given the current situation, Gu Dekang can't say anything.

Anyway, things have already come to this, and putting aside other matters, today we really need to suppress the third wife's family.

Gu Sang protected Li Shi.

She was about to speak, but was stopped by Li.

Li Shi walked out from behind Gu Sang, trembling all over, then took a deep breath and looked at Gu Dekang.

This was her father-in-law. Before her husband left, she had promised to take good care of him and his parents, so that he would have no worries.

But after so many years of living a life worse than that of pigs and dogs, Li finally gave up all hope.

This whole family showed absolutely no remorse for burying Sangsang alive!

Since that's the case, then Li really has nothing left to hold onto.

My daughter has always been the one protecting me, but now... it's time for her to take over.

Having thought of all this, Li stepped forward and looked at Gu Dekang.

“Dad, Sangsang is filial, sensible, hardworking and never complains. I don’t believe you haven’t seen these qualities. But you can’t accept our third branch of the family. So no matter how hard we try, it will be in vain.”

Upon hearing Li's words, everyone's heart skipped a beat, and for a moment they did not understand what Li meant.

Madam Yang rolled her eyes, then said, "No... Third son's wife, what do you mean by that? Are you complaining about Father?"

Look at these people, even at this moment, they still don't forget to seize every opportunity and stir up trouble.

Li shook her head.

“No, I just wanted to tell my parents that the third branch of the family has separated from the main family without taking a single thread from them, and the children are no longer under the protection of the main family. So please don’t bother our family of six anymore.”

As it is said, Li is indeed a timid and cowardly person, but no matter how timid she is, she still has a basic brain.

Things turned out this way, which was not what Li wanted to see. But they treated the third wife so ruthlessly. Li was not stupid. She could suffer herself, but she would not allow her children to suffer like this.

After Li said these words, everyone exchanged glances, momentarily at a loss for words.

It's as if... things are already out of control.

Gu Dekang also sized up Li Shi.

What do you mean?

"Please, Father and Mother, do not disturb the third branch of the family anymore."

This is what the Li family meant.

Li Shi was unusually assertive, and this change in her attitude was something Gu Sang hadn't expected.

However, recalling the scene of her younger siblings being beaten and Li being held down and beaten by Zhang, Gu Sang understood.

If things hadn't reached an unbearable point, Li Shi probably wouldn't have given up.

That's good. The Gu family's old house has completely broken their hearts.

After Li, the third wife, spoke, the entire courtyard fell silent.

It's probably something no one expected that the usually submissive third wife would actually say something so forceful! It's truly astonishing.

"You...you..."

Gu Dekang raised his hand, pointing at Li Shi in shock, seemingly wanting to criticize her, but unable to utter a single word.

At this moment, Gu Sang looked at Gu Dekang.

"Can't accept it? Do you think we, the third branch of the family, are unfilial and lack manners?"

After she finished speaking, Gu Sang smiled and beckoned her younger siblings over.

Then the family of six stood together.

“Our third branch only has this many people, otherwise… why don’t you kill us first? I have three younger brothers and one younger sister. If you convert them into in-laws, you can earn another 120 taels. Add my mother to the mix, wouldn’t you be rich?”

"I'll see if you dare!"

Gu Sang's eyes were filled with coldness, even resentment.

What's the point of talking to them here now?

Regardless of the outcome, in Gu Sang's view, if the people in the old house don't kill them, then sooner or later Gu Sang will tear down the old house!

Even Gu Yingfu, the eldest son of the eldest branch of the family who was most adept at smoothing things over, dared not speak rashly at this moment.

After all, what that brat said was absolutely true. If the third branch of the family dared to do something that would lead to a fight to the death, the first branch would definitely be the one to suffer the most!

"Father! Let's ignore them! Since the third branch of the family doesn't know what's good for them, then we'll never interfere with them again! We'll see what they do next!"

"Let me tell you, don't starve to death at our Gu family's doorstep!"

That was said with such force and confidence.

But Gu Sang didn't care at all.

Gu Sang gave a cold laugh, her eyes filled with a hint of pity as she looked at them all.

"Then you can rest assured, even if the third branch of the family begs for food, they won't be able to get it to you."

"Then get lost!"

Gu Yingfu's heart was pounding for some reason, and he felt very uneasy, so he wanted to drive everyone away right now!

At this moment, Yang couldn't help but take a step back.

They wanted to downplay the issue, but would Gu Sang agree to that?

She's the kind of person who'll eat anything in her life, except for one kind of loss, which she absolutely cannot tolerate!

Thinking of this, Gu Sang gave a cold smile, then narrowed her eyes slightly and looked everyone in the Gu family up and down.

"Leave? Leave where? You think you can just let us go after you've resolved everything? You've got it easy for you."

That's really interesting. Do they think that they shouldn't be punished for doing something wrong, and that they can just let it go with a casual remark?

If that's really the case, then Gu Sang can tell them they're dreaming!
