Sorrow transford into strength for Su Jing, making her work with a renewed vigor. As a result, the Su family had their dinner early that day. During the al, Gu Zi brought out the braised at from the shop. Su Li ate with great satisfaction, exclaiming, “Mom, when I’m on holiday, I want to help Grandma sell braised at too. I want to learn business and make big money!”
Gu Zi smiled indulgently, serving him a large piece of braised pork intestine. “Good, learn business, make big money. Mom is looking forward to it!” For Gu Zi, as long as the outco was different from the original, she would be happy even if Su Li beca an ordinary person.
Passersby, returning from their farming work, caught the scent of the braised at and looked on enviously. The Su family was already enjoying a hearty al while they had just finished their day’s labor.
Soone sourly remarked, “Have you heard? The Lin family’s business has been declining. There aren’t as many custors as when they first opened.”
“Many people in town haven’t been able to establish their businesses. How could the Lin family possibly sustain theirs? I think it’s only because of Su Shen’s money that they’re still afloat. Otherwise, they would have gone bankrupt.”
Although everyone knew these words were exaggerated, they continued in the sa vein.
Another person added, “I think those city folks were just Gu Zi’s hired stooges, putting on a show for us. Do you see anyone coming now?”
A woman who had visited the town just yesterday and had tried the braised pig’s head at couldn’t forget its taste. The aroma wafting from the Su’s house was making her mouth water.
However, she couldn’t stand the false words being spoken by the people around her.
She stepped forward and said, “What bankruptcy? It’s just not as bustling as the first few days of opening. Their business is far from dismal. You should go to town one day and see for yourself how well they’re doing.
“They’re living well because they have money. Su Shen earns his money honestly. What’s wrong with his family living well? Many people in our village have benefited from Su Shen’s success…”
As the woman was reprimanding the group, they happened to pass by Aunt Zhang’s house. Aunt Zhang heard everything clearly. After finishing her al, she visited the Su family and relayed what she had heard. “You don’t know, those people were silenced by her words. I was standing behind the door, listening with such satisfaction. I always say, there are still many righteous people in our village.”
Upon hearing the news, Su Jing imdiately thought of Li Li, who had co to see her earlier that day. She was seething with anger at these despicable individuals who could not bear to see others doing well. With a swift smack on the table, Su Jing rose to her feet, declaring, “Aunt Zhang, take to them. I’ll tear their mouths apart!”
Upon hearing her words, Su Li stood up in agreent. Finally, he felt a sense of approval for his aunt, at least she wasn’t a coward. “I’ll go too. I’ll knock their teeth out!” he exclaid. Even the usually composed Su Bing stood up, unable to tolerate anyone speaking ill of his mother.
Gu Zi, however, was slightly irritated, especially by Su Li’s words. She was deeply concerned. With a stern slap on the table, she scolded, “All of you, sit down! Are you all full and ready to join the underworld gangs or what?”
The woman’s beautiful face took on an authoritative expression. The three who had been so bold just monts ago instantly lost their montum and sat back down. There was no choice, this was a matter of hierarchy, and Gu Zi was the leader.
Aunt Zhang found the whole scene amusing and laughed, “Oh, they were just joking. They wouldn’t really tear anyone’s mouth apart. I’ve shared my gossip and eaten your food, I should get going. I still have dishes to wash at ho.”
As Aunt Zhang rose to leave, Su Li hurriedly followed to open and close the door for her. He seed to have upset his mother earlier and thought it best not to linger.
Su Jing imdiately stood up to head to the kitchen, “Haha, I think I haven’t washed the dishes yet. I’ll go do that now. Su Bing, do you want to help?” Without hesitation, Su Bing nodded in agreent, and the two also made their escape.
Gu Zi paid them no mind, continuing to watch television while holding Su Le. She gently told the little girl in her arms, “Le Le, you mustn’t learn from them. They’re all brutes.”
The next morning, Li Li was already waiting outside the Su family’s door. Afraid of attracting Gu Zi’s attention, she didn’t knock, but waited as agreed with Su Jing.
Inside the house, Su Jing sat, fully aware that Li Li had arrived. She deliberately didn’t go out, letting her wait a while longer. After all, there should be a price to pay for wanting to harm others.
