With a series of crackling sounds, nothing in the grocery store was intact, and no one was unharmed.
Han Shunde always heard a voice outside the door, constantly issuing orders.
And the voice sounded somewhat familiar.
In a fit of anger, he rushed outside and saw a woman standing in the sunlight in front of the exquisite carriage, giving orders.
He walked down the steps and stood a meter away from the woman.
He stared at her coldly.
Who are you? What grudge do you have against me?
"Hahahaha, we have a grudge, a deep-seated hatred!" Han Shunde frowned as he watched the woman speak through gritted teeth, racking his brains over and over again, but he couldn't recall when he had offended this woman.
He guessed that the grocery store's booming business might have infringed on the interests of another store, thus creating an unspoken enmity.
"May I ask which household you reside in, Madam?"
You don't deserve to know!
The woman spoke dismissively, a gust of wind blowing her hair behind her ear, which she then tucked behind her ear.
Just then, the woman turned to the side, revealing a black mole behind her ear, which Han Shunde could see clearly.
He was startled!
Could it be?
No way, how could that be?!
How could she possibly survive falling into the water from such a high cliff?
The woman felt extremely pleased as she watched Han Shunde cover his forehead with one hand, his face covered in blood.
In a good mood, she asked, "What? Don't you recognize me?"
Han Shunde asked with absolute certainty, "You are Yuli!"
"Don't call me so affectionately! You bunch of demons, you're all murderers! You've already killed Gu Yuli!"
Han Shunde was surprised for a moment, then became angry as he thought about everything that had happened at the grocery store.
"Gu Yuli, is it really you? You're not dead? Why are you here today?"
This woman is Gu Yuli.
Back then, Han Shunde's eldest sister, Han Yanyan, was beautiful and quite pampered. When she was 15, she asked a matchmaker to introduce her to potential husbands, but she didn't like any of them.
The old village chief and Aunt Huaihua also loved this girl and did not force her to marry off.
He drifted along like this until he was 17, when one day he met Gu Yili's father in town.
Gu Yuli's father was indeed handsome, but he was just a street thug.
He indulged in all sorts of vices, including eating, drinking, gambling, and prostitution.
When he learned that Han Yanyan, who had taken a liking to him, was the village chief and came from a wealthy family, he began to pursue her relentlessly.
In order to marry Han Yanyan, he even went to Han Family Village with her.
Although the old village chief and Aunt Huaihua were angry that their daughter was impolite and had brought a man from another family into their home without permission.
However, Han Yanyan was determined to marry him, and she cried and made a scene for three days, threatening to kill herself.
There was no other way but to marry her off.
On the day of the wedding, not a single copper coin was given as a betrothal gift.
Gu Yuli's father arrived at Hanjiacun in an empty donkey cart, and left with a full dowry.
A year after their marriage, the two were deeply in love and living a harmonious life together.
The following year, Han Yanyan gave birth to her eldest daughter, Gu Yuli. In her husband's family, she suffered greatly from the torment of her mother-in-law and sister-in-law.
In the third year, she gave birth to another daughter, Gu Yushi, and her treatment became even worse.
One winter night, Han Yanyan returned home with her two daughters and burst into tears.
When they went to bed that night, Aunt Huaihua discovered that the mother and her two children had old wounds piled on top of new ones.
They were either whipped or pinched and bumped, leaving them bruised and purple.
The old village chief and Aunt Huaihua couldn't swallow their anger, so they led Han Shunde, Han Shunkui, and the nephews from Hanjiacun Village to the Gu family's house and smashed up the courtyard and house.
After obtaining the divorce papers, they brought the mother and her two children back to their home in Hanjiacun.
Unexpectedly, the mother and her two children all turned out to be lazy, cunning, and good-for-nothing.
That kind of thing happened during their escape from famine.
Thinking of this, Han Shunde suppressed his anger.
He smiled knowingly, still thinking of his sister's child.
"You seem to be doing well these days. It's good that you're doing well."
You've come today, and you've vented your anger. Nothing in this grocery store belongs to me personally.
Even if I were to forgo two years' worth of wages, I still couldn't afford to pay my employer.
I'll pay back the money I lost at the grocery store today, slowly. You can go back now.
Gu Yuli chuckled lightly, "Boss? Who is your boss? Li Lanzhen?"
Is it that bitch Li Lanzhen?
"Shut up, how can you talk like that, child?"
Your Aunt Lanzhen is now a Lady Yi, bestowed the title by the Emperor.
"You mustn't insult me!"
"Shut up, you bastard! What kind of nonsense is this 'Yiren'? What is Li Lanzhen? Does she deserve to be my aunt?"
Since I fell off the cliff and into the flood, I have had no relatives in this world!
Hearing the words from the ancient saying, Han Shunde felt both bitter and angry.
When the mother and her two children returned to their parents' home, they were all emaciated, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they looked like skeletons.
The old village chief and his two brothers traded coarse flour for fine flour and brown rice for white rice, all to nourish the mother and her two children.
Many times, even when Han Zhaoxiong and his friends were hungry, they would still feed the mother and her two children until they were full.
Aunt Huaihua took out the cloth that she had stored at home for many years to make clothes for the mother and her two children.
Because of this, Liu Zhaodi and Han Shunkui's wife nagged and made a fuss a lot.
But the two brothers stopped them.
I always thought that my older sister had met the wrong person and had returned to her parents' home with her two daughters, so I wanted to give her more family love.
But these three women took all the love from their relatives for granted.
He doesn't do any work outside, nor does he lend a hand with any chores at home.
After three years of raising them like this, the mother and her two children actually gained weight and became fairer.
But they never know how to be grateful!
"That's enough, Gu Yuli. You said you have no relatives in this world, so let it be."
Now that you've vented your anger, please leave.
"Let's go. Every wrong has its perpetrator, and every debt has its debtor. I'm going to settle accounts with Li Lanzhen!"
Where is she? And that bitch Han Shulan too.
"Gu Yuli, how could you call your cousin that!"
Ever since you and your mother came to live with us, your cousin has put up with you so many times! But you always try to snatch anything she likes.
Whether it's clothes, food, or hair accessories, they'll try to take everything from her.
"Is that still not enough?"
Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, Gu Yuli immediately erupted into hysteria and shouted loudly.
"Not enough! Not enough! I want that bitch dead! Why is she fighting me for her!"
She already has your love and care, why are you trying to steal Mingxiang from me!
Why? Why? Hasn't she always given in to me? Why is she taking it from me this time and not letting me have it!
If she had given herself to me, I wouldn't have pushed her into the water, and Brother Mingxiang wouldn't have jumped into the flood.
If she had given it to me, I wouldn't have fallen off the cliff...
Why~~
Han Shunde looked at Gu Yuli and saw her acting so madly.
She stood there and sneered a few times, "Gu Yuli, I think you've really gone mad! Do you even know what you're saying!"
Gu Yuli calmed down after a long while.
He said coldly, "Keep smashing them. Break everyone's legs, as long as they don't die."
Upon hearing her say this, Han Shunde saw several men standing beside him brandishing knives and about to burst through the door.
He shouted angrily, "Gu Yuli, do you have any conscience at all? You're such an ingrate!"
"You are not allowed in this general store! Get out! Get out!"
"Beat them!"
These men brandished their knives and were about to attack Han Shunde.
Han Shunde was now completely calm. So be it. He would use his life to make up for all the losses he had suffered today!
Just as this thought crossed his mind, he heard a loud shout.
"Stop! Who dares to shout and kill in broad daylight!"
