When Gu Xi got home from work, Wang Xu's dishes were already hot in the pot, but he was nowhere to be found.
Gu Xi was in a terrible mood. Without Wang Xu's help, she took her time preparing water for a bath. She didn't even eat dinner and sat in the yard in a daze.
Suddenly Li Tong came running over: "Gu Xi, go to the village committee quickly. Wang Xu got into a fight with someone. The other party was also very good at fighting and both were injured."
Gu Xi immediately ran towards the village committee, totally ignoring her aching muscles. Li Tong was left behind and couldn't catch up with her.
Gu Xi was panting when he ran over. The village chief and the secretary were very anxious, but they didn't dare to step forward to pull him away.
Wang Xu, Yin Jie and Wei Qingzhe were on one side, and the other side consisted of three people in military uniforms. Yin Jie and Wei Qingzhe were no match for them and were suppressed. Wang Xu did not gain any advantage and both of his opponents were injured.
Ye Xinchen and Gu Xi arrived one after another, and he immediately stepped forward to rescue Yin Jie and Wei Qingzhe. The two rescued people did not buy it either, and the three against two started fighting again.
The village chief and the secretary felt like they were going to have a heart attack when they saw another person. They shouted at the top of their lungs, "Stop beating me! Stop it, you hear me?"
But the murderous people were not going to listen. The village chief was about to step forward to stop them when a man was knocked flying and bumped into them. The village chief stumbled back a few steps but the secretary held him up. "What a disgrace! You are really a rebellion. I can't control you anymore."
Wei Qingzhe, who was knocked flying, went back to join the fight without saying a word.
Seeing this, Gu Xi quickly understood the battle situation and thought that the one fighting with Wang Xu should be the source of the problem.
Ignoring the others, Gu Xi looked around and saw a villager carrying a basket of firewood. He must have just brought it back from the mountains and came to watch the fun.
Gu Xi went up and picked up a thick wooden stick that was handy. It was a bit prickly, but he didn't care about it anymore. He said to the village chief: "Separate Wang Xu and the other two, and the others will naturally stop. Uncle, come and help me."
Before the village chief could react, Gu Xi raised the wood and swung it at the man.
The opponent instinctively wanted to fight back, and when he saw it was a girl, he just raised his hand to block it. Gu Xi's strength was nothing to him. Wang Xu stopped fighting immediately when he saw it. Naturally, the two of them stopped because of Gu Xi to avoid accidental injuries.
The village head and secretary also seized the opportunity to run to the middle and hold the other party on the left and right: "Stop, stop. Calm down."
Gu Xi had been holding back her anger for the entire day, and now she completely exploded: "What are you doing? Soldiers fighting with peasants, do you deserve to be wearing military uniforms?
And you guys, you are so bored, why are you fighting with the soldiers? Are you trying to kill yourself? Your fancy moves are ugly to begin with, and the injuries are even uglier. We fight every day, can’t we be reasonable? Is the mouth just a decoration?
And you two, a village chief and a secretary, what's the use of you? Men, especially a group of men, can only stir up trouble and hold others back. If you get together, you will cause trouble. "
Gu Xi's outburst of anger stunned everyone present. The scene was particularly quiet. Even I, the villagers who were watching the fun, didn't dare to breathe, for fear that I would be the next one to be scolded.
Lin Ling got wind of the news and rushed over just in time to hear Gu Xi starting to scold someone. She hid behind him as quietly as a chicken, but when she saw that no one spoke, she quickly stepped forward and took the stick from Gu Xi's hand.
Gu Xi glanced at her and let go: "Wei Qingzhe, tell me what happened first?"
Wei Qingzhe's face was bruised and swollen, and he was no longer as cool as before: "I don't know, I heard that Secretary Wang Xu was fighting with someone, so I wanted to help stop the fight, but I saw three against two, so I came to help."
Gu Xi pointed at the young warrior who was fighting with Yin Jie and said, "Why are they fighting three against two?"
The young soldier had never seen such a scene before, and felt that the regiment commander was lecturing him, so he instinctively answered truthfully: "We came back with the regiment commander to visit his relatives and see his girlfriend, but as soon as we arrived, we heard these two people complaining to the village chief and ruining our sister-in-law's reputation."
Gu Xi was confused by what she heard, and knew that the one fighting with Wang Xu was obviously the leader mentioned by the little soldier: "Who is your target?"
The other party stood there with a righteous look on his face: "I have a childhood sweetheart named Xu Jiao. Her father died on the battlefield, and she was my father's best comrade. He arranged a childhood sweetheart relationship for me and Xu Jiao. We have an obligation to take care of Xu Jiao. In addition, she is the child of a martyr, and you cannot smear her here. We are all her relatives, and we cannot let her be bullied."
Gu Xi finally understood what was going on: "Uncle Xu, did you know that Xu Jiao has a boyfriend?"
Without waiting for the village chief to answer, the team leader immediately replied: "Of course I know. For two consecutive years, I have visited Xu Jiao once during my vacation and stayed for two days."
The village chief nodded in approval. Gu Xi looked at the village chief with a sullen face and said, "Hey, it's better to come at the right time than to come early. You said you are Xu Jiao's boyfriend and you have arranged a marriage for her. Does she agree?"
The head of the regiment frowned and said, "Of course. When I came here last year, I said that I would come to discuss marriage with Uncle Xu this year. After that, I would go back to file a marriage application and let her follow me to the army."
Gu Xi also imitated him and frowned: "That's strange, yesterday Xu Jiao..."
The village chief quickly spoke up to stop them: "Gu Zhiqing, some things should not be said carelessly. Know when to stop and don't make things difficult for everyone."
Gu Xi fully demonstrated that she was not an easy person to deal with: "Oh? So how are you going to end this now? Are you going to accuse Wang Xu and his group of spreading rumors? Or are you going to muddle through?
I think your trouble-making behavior is what makes the situation difficult for everyone. If you could control Xu Jiao, this wouldn't have happened. "
The village chief's face turned red from holding back, but he was unable to refute. In the end, I gave up and stopped talking because I really couldn't control anything.
The head of the group looked at Gu Xi and said, "My name is Yue Hongming, Gu Zhiqing, just speak frankly."
Gu Xi also did not shy away from the question: "As far as I know, Xu Jiao has a boyfriend in her heart, who is a youth from the youth training center named Zhang Yuejin.
Yesterday, a girl from the village went up the mountain to pick wild vegetables and ran into Xu Jiao and Zhang Yuejin hugging and kissing on the mountain. The girl was naive and ran away in fear. When the two men saw that their affair was exposed, they chased after them. The girl panicked and lost her way, and finally she missed a step and fell down the hillside.
The two men witnessed the incident with their own eyes, and for some unknown reason, they watched the girl die without rescuing her, presumably to cover up the truth. The girl had fallen and was unable to move in the wild mountains and forests, and at this moment, not rescuing her was tantamount to murder.
Captain Yue, what do you think? "
Yue Hongming was shocked by what he heard: "Are you telling the truth? Xu Jiao has always been sensible and would never do such a thing."
Gu Xi pointed at Xu Zhengrong and said, "It's absolutely true. You can ask the village chief yourself. Wang Xu and his friends are witnesses. They went to the mountains to search for a whole day before they rescued the man. He is now recuperating at home.
My foot was swollen like a steamed bun, and no one came to express their concern or apologize. I even suspected that it might be a fracture. "
Seeing that the village chief did not refute, Yue Hongming knew that this must be true: "Uncle Xu, please bring Xu Jiao and his partner here. I want to meet them."
The villagers and the two young soldiers were completely stunned by the huge amount of information and almost lost the ability to think.
