At the place where Qi Jinhua was being held, two men at the entrance were talking amongst themselves, clearly dissatisfied.
Big Tree: "I heard that the Gu family hosted this, but there were several meat dishes, and they were all big pieces of meat."
I'm speechless. It was wrong of her to cause trouble the other day, but she had to do it today. Now we can't even have a meal. It's all Han Yanru's fault. If she hadn't talked so much, we wouldn't be here watching.
The little tree next to him sighed: "Sigh, what's the use of saying anything more? We still have to wait here. But you know what, that silly boy really did see Xinyi and... you know..."
"What nonsense are you talking about? Nothing of the sort happened. Xinyi was only dressed in wet clothes, she was all wrapped up tightly."
"I bet this kid has his eye on Xinyi. He heard she got married, so he's deliberately causing trouble!" The big tree said, leaning closer to the little tree and whispering.
"Think about it, if your soon-to-be wife is said to have been seen by another man, would you wear a green hat and still go ahead with the wedding?"
Xiao Shu shook his head: "If she really were my wife, I would divorce her immediately. How could I possibly marry her?"
Big Tree rolled his eyes at him: "That's it. I saw the mother and son inside and thought of using this method to make the wedding cancel."
Once the engagement is called off, how can Xinyi get married? Then the two of them can come to propose again, and the marriage will be settled.
What a cunning scheme! Luckily, Gu Xing is a good person and didn't fall for it, otherwise Xin Yi's life would be ruined.
Xiao Shu spat inside: "Those two are disgusting. Luckily, it didn't work out."
When the brigade leader returns, we must make him decide on compensation; otherwise, if everyone follows suit, things will get chaotic.”
Big Tree sat by the door, legs crossed, leaning against the wall: "So, let's just watch and see. If things go well, we might be able to have a meal together tonight."
The two chatted casually when Han Yanru walked in from outside, smiling and saying, "Uncle Big Tree and Uncle Little Tree, I've finished eating and came to relieve you. You two go ahead and eat."
Upon hearing the word "eat," Xiaoshu immediately asked, "Are you eating so fast? Is the food not good?"
Thinking about the meat, even though she eats meat often, the smell made her want to take a few more bites.
But this matter wasn't resolved yet, so she didn't dare to delay any longer. She only ate a few bites before coming over: "It's delicious, there's so much meat. I have a small appetite and I'm full after just a little bit."
Thinking that you hadn't eaten yet, I thought I'd come over and keep an eye on things for you, so you could have something to eat when you went over there."
Pulling the little tree that wanted to leave, the big tree glared at him, then looked at Han Yanru: "The captain told us to keep an eye on things, so we won't go. It wouldn't be good if someone ran away."
Seeing that the big tree was holding onto the small tree and wouldn't let them leave, and that if they delayed any longer, people would come over, Han Yanru was a little anxious: "They're all tied up, how could they possibly run away?"
Besides, they live in the next village. They can run away, but they can't hide. If they really do run away, just go find their brigade leader.
Besides, it's my cousin who's being slandered. I'll definitely keep an eye on them and won't let them get away. You guys go over there quickly, I've checked the documents, and there's a big pork knuckle."
That makes sense. Our home is right there, so we're not worried about people running away: "Alright, then you keep an eye on things and make sure no one gets away."
The two ran quickly toward the Gu family, one after the other, afraid that if they were even a second late, the meat would be gone.
After the two left, Han Yanru opened the door and met Qi Jinhua's gaze.
He glanced outside the door to make sure no one was coming, then quickly walked over and removed the gag from her mouth: "Don't speak yet, listen to me."
Today, you must insist that your son likes Han Xinyi and wants him to get married; you are not allowed to say anything else.
After this is all over, I'll give you fifty dollars, enough for your son to get married.
Everyone in the surrounding villages knows Han Yanru, this lucky girl. You think you can get rid of her with this little bit of money? "No way, two hundred, not a penny less."
Although she had some money, she didn't have that much: "Where would I get that much money? I only know seventy, and I don't have any more than that."
Seeing Han Yanru's expression, Qi Jinhua knew she didn't have that much money and was afraid of pushing her too far, so she lowered the price: "The lowest is one hundred and fifty. If you bargain any further, I'm not sure what I'll say when the people arrive."
With the money already in her hands, it would be about the same if she asked her grandmother for some more. Han Yanru gritted her teeth and agreed, "Okay, one hundred and fifty it is. Then I'll trouble you to go through this trouble again."
Just as Han Yanru picked up the rag, preparing to stuff it into Qi Jinhua's mouth, a sudden sound from behind startled her.
"Are you tired? I think this money is earned quite easily, just a few words and you get 150 yuan!"
"who?"
Han Yanru was so frightened that she dropped the rag in her hand and turned to face Gu Rongru's icy face: "How did you get here? When did you arrive?"
"Not too early, not too late, just as you entered the house, I heard everything," Gu Rong said as she walked into the room, kicking Qi Jinhua again and Gou Bao twice more.
"Ah~, you slut, ridden by ten thousand men, ridden by..." Qi Jinhua was kicked and started cursing as soon as she opened her mouth.
However, her speed in cursing couldn't keep up with Lord Gu Rong's speed.
They were even afraid she was too loud, so they stuffed a rag into her mouth after she had only said a few words of cursing.
Without a certificate of mental illness, killing someone would be a serious offense, so Gu Rong held back a little, only kicking the other person's buttocks a dozen times before stopping.
Shaking her slightly numb feet, she grabbed Han Yanru, who was trying to sneak away: "What? You think you can run away after doing something bad? That's so despicable."
Besides her, the other two were her own people. Han Yanru pretended to be calm: "What bad thing happened? I was just watching over people for Uncle Dashu and Uncle Xiaoshu, who knew you would suddenly come in and hit people."
I know you're angry, but you didn't investigate properly, and you can't be sure they're wrong. Hitting someone is your fault.
