Tian Congbao was in a bad mood throughout the meal. He would eat whatever Gu Xi picked for him. If Gu Xi didn't pick anything for him, he would just eat rice.
Wang Xuke couldn't stand Gu Xi picking up food for others all day long: "Don't bother with him. He can't even concentrate on eating. What can he do? Just take care of yourself. You didn't pick up food for me, but you picked up food for him. It's up to him to eat it or not."
Gu Xi was really angry and amused: "There are adults like you, Congbao, you are still young now, you can't do anything about adult matters, all you can do is take good care of yourself and protect yourself, the same goes for Wangdi.
When you grow up and have the ability, you can take the lead. Now just eat well. Nothing is more important than eating. Finish your homework now, the teacher will check it tomorrow. "
Congbao finally responded and looked up to ask Gu Xi: "Gu Zhiqing, when can I grow up? I want to protect my mother. She may not be very good, but she is very good to me and gives me the best. The money for my hospitalization was saved little by little by her every day. She also took care of me in the hospital for four days. When she came back, she was beaten by Tian Guodong."
Hearing that he had changed his way of addressing Tian Guodong, I knew that the child's carefree childhood had come to an end early: "Growing up means waiting until you are able to be independent and support yourself and your mother."
Wang Xu said coldly, "When Tian Guodong can't beat you, you will be considered grown up."
This was a rough but true statement, and Gu Xi couldn't refute it for a moment. She glared at Wang Xu and said, "I'm teaching my child, what are you talking about? It's wrong to hit people. But it's about the same thing. If they can't beat you, they will be afraid of you. You can see it from Wang Xu. But he is extreme, don't follow his example."
Tian Congbao tilted his head and looked at Wang Xu: "I think it's good. No one dares to mess with him and no one dares to mess with you. You can protect the people who are important to you."
Tian Wangdi also seemed to be thinking: "I think growing up means being able to leave home and not having to do endless work and listen to endless abuse at home."
Gu Xi looked at the three people who were eating with their heads down and seemed to be lost in thought. They looked like they were cut from the same mold. Although they were not close, their blood relationship was still very strange.
Gu Xi didn't dislike the two children based on Wang Xu's performance. Wang Xu was still the one who helped them with their homework. Gu Xi saw this and decided not to stop the two children from disturbing them. Just let them get along naturally.
Within two days, the radio announced that the village would have electricity. A series of rumors began to spread about the village chief setting up a pig farm and wanting the villagers to share the electricity bill. Some even said that the bad idea of electricity was proposed by Wang Xu, who would do anything to give Gu Xi electricity.
At first, Xu Zhengrong and his friends didn't take the rumors seriously until the villagers surrounded Wang Xu's house. After lunch, Wang Xu went to the pig farm to help, leaving Gu Xi alone at home to rest.
There was a loud knock on the distant door, and Gu Xi thought there was a fire. As soon as the door opened, a group of people came in and surrounded Gu Xi.
A man holding a stick spoke viciously: "Is it you who did this? You insisted on having electricity. Since you came, this village has been in a mess. You set up a neighborhood committee and insisted on sending children to school to earn tuition fees. You also talked about domestic violence and gender equality. The women at home are too lazy to work.
Now you want to set up a pig farm and provide electricity to the pig farm. You say that the whole village will have electricity and every household will have electricity, but in the end you want to cheat us out of our money to use electricity. You are such a dark woman. "
Gu Xi was confused by what you said: "I don't know what you are talking about. What does electricity have to do with the pig farm? What do you want me to do? What do you want? Electricity is not my responsibility. The village chief is responsible for it."
The man who was in the lead just now raised the stick and pointed it at Gu Xi: "Don't play dumb, it was you who gave the bad idea in front of the village chief and Wang Xu. You only cared about your own interests and completely ignored the wishes of the villagers. Did you ask us before turning on the electricity? You insisted that we spend money. Isn't this forced buying and selling?"
Gu Xi looked at the wooden stick in front of her without panic, and continued to speak slowly: "I can't explain it to you clearly. You should go with me to find the village chief to find out what's going on. I really don't know about the electricity. You are here with wooden sticks, beating me up. Not only will it not solve the problem, I will also investigate it to the end. Either beat me to death, or I will send you to the public security bureau."
Some of the accomplices nearby, who had suffered at the hands of Gu Xi, felt a little scared. Gu Xi had a bad temper and would do something so cruel that she would not let anyone go if she said she would send him to the police.
"Brother Chen, I think she really doesn't know. Let's go."
While Brother Chen was still hesitating, an auntie next to him said, "Now the village chief is in cahoots with her. They are all obsessed with money. Secretary Wu's daughter is also very close to this Gu Xi. Today, she must promise not to cut off the electricity for the village, otherwise this matter will not end."
Gu Xi is also a stubborn person. If you talk to her nicely, she will be willing to communicate with you. But if you threaten her with violence, she will be crazier than you.
"Why are you still not done? I have just made it very clear. This is Aunt Zhao, right? I remember you. I went to the countryside for only two days when your son teamed up with the neighbors to bully me. I paid him 200 yuan in compensation, and now you still refuse to change your ways? Have you saved up the money at home?"
Aunt Zhao was furious: "I thought you were a bad person at that time, and I was right. You came to the village to stir up trouble and bewilder Wang Xu. Who knows what kind of bewitching potion you gave the village chief."
Gu Xi directly poured the hot tea in her hand onto her face, and the group of people were caught off guard and were shocked: "Gu Xi, you are such a vixen, are you all bewitched by her? Didn't you see that I was splashed with water?"
Gu Xi put the cup heavily on the table and said, "I'm standing here. If I hide for a while, I'll be a coward. If you have the guts, come and do it. Don't say I didn't warn you. If you touch a hair on my head, your good days will be over. Believe it or not, it's up to you."
Aunt Zhao sneered, "You guys are not scared by this little girl, are you? She is not easy to beat, but you can smash her. Anyway, you have to teach her a lesson, otherwise a city person will be able to tell the village what to do."
The leading man thought it made sense: "Yes, we can't let a little girl scare us. We have to teach her a lesson so that she will behave herself in the future."
Several people picked up wooden sticks and smashed them in the yard. Gu Xi stepped aside and said, "Everything you smash has a price. Whoever starts it will bear the cost together. Besides, this is Wang Xu's home."
Hearing Wang Xu, the people who were smashing things paused for a moment. During this pause, an anxious roar came from the door: "What are you doing? You are gathering here to bully a girl. It's really shameful!"
Wu Yao rushed over first, Xu Zhengrong ran behind, and Wang Xu was at the pig farm. He was notified a little late, so he had not arrived yet.
