A while back, Sheng Zexi was promoted to a regintal-level officer, and Gu Jia Ning also called ho to share the good news, so the Gu Family was aware of it.
Now, as soon as Gu Yunzhou ntioned Sheng Zexi, it imdiately silenced those people.
The villagers started to speak up as well.
"Back then, Officer Sheng personally ca to propose and offered a significant dowry, showing how much he valued the marriage with Ningning and the Gu Family."
"That’s right. If he knew how the Gu Family was being treated, who knows how furious he would be."
"A regintal-level officer, that’s quite a high position."
The people from the eting were also hesitant. The leader, with a hesitant look, stepped forward.
"But we also received an anonymous report, so we must follow the proper procedures."
At this mont, Old Gu stepped up. "Everyone, we understand your difficulties and are willing to cooperate. You can follow the procedures, but please be gentle during the search."
In fact, Old Gu knew that once these people arrived, it would be nearly impossible to send them away.
But Old Gu also knew, and had even seen before, what these people’s search looked like. It was like a swarm of locusts or bandits passing through.
He didn’t want his well-organized ho to beco a ss.
Seeing Old Gu agree, the person imdiately breathed a sigh of relief.
"Alright, let’s do it that way."
Thus, with Old Gu’s consent, the Gu Family mbers stepped aside to let them through, and they imdiately went inside to search.
At this ti, the villagers also stepped forward.
"Village chief, how could you let them in?"
"I wonder which heartless person dared to hurt you, village chief. It’s truly unforgivable."
"They shouldn’t be allowed in. What if they find sothing..."
At this mont, Old Gu stepped up and said to everyone, "Fellow villagers, you all know what kind of person I, Gu Chunsheng, am. I have a clear conscience." With that, he walked towards his house, and the other Gu Family mbers followed.
Old Gu stood confidently, but the villagers still murmured to themselves. If sothing really happened, then it was a setup against them.
However, no one else said anything, and they followed along, wanting to see the results of the search.
Wen Zhqing was also hidden in the crowd, listening to Old Gu’s words, with a mocking smile on his lips.
He scanned the front and soon found Yang Manman’s figure.
Holding that packet of dicine, he walked forward slowly.
Yang Manman, following her family inside, was also anxiously waiting for the results.
Though they had discussed this matter last night and were sure there was no problem, facing such a scene made Yang Manman inevitably tense and anxious.
Just then, soone from behind seed eager to move forward and directly bumped into Yang Manman.
The bump wasn’t hard, but caught off guard, Yang Manman stumbled to the side.
"Manman." A startled voice rang out, and Gu Yunting, who had been at her side, imdiately supported her.
"Manman, are you alright?" Gu Yunting asked anxiously.
Yang Manman was startled, but fortunately, she was caught in ti. Seeing it was her husband, she felt relieved.
She knew that A Ting had been by her side since this morning.
"I’m okay."
After confirming his wife was fine, Gu Yunting turned his anger towards the person who had bumped into her.
He stepped forward and shoved Wen Zhqing to the ground, angrily asking, "Wen Zhiqing, why did you bump into Manman? Was it intentional? She’s pregnant, are you trying to kill her?"
Wen Zhqing, pushed to the ground, was a bit bewildered.
He only felt the pain in his tailbone from when Liu Yuan pushed him over before hadn’t completely healed, and now he got hurt again, it hurt so much.
Before he could react, Gu Yunting grabbed him by the collar, lifting him halfway off the ground, and imdiately punched him in the face.
Gu Yunting gave him a solid punch.
That punch made Wen Zhqing cry out in pain.
At this mont, the people around also realized what was happening and hurried forward to stop it.
Bao Shanyan also stepped forward to intervene, "What are you doing, why are you hitting him?"
Bao Shanyan, although not knowing when Wen Zhqing ran out to watch the commotion.
But Wen Zhqing, after all, was her husband, no one else could hit him; otherwise, it was a slap in the face to Bao Shanyan.
Gu Yunting scoffed, "Ask him what he did, Manman is pregnant, yet he intentionally bumped into her. What if Manman had fallen? What would happen to her and the baby in her belly? Is Wen Zhqing intentionally trying to harm Manman and the baby’s life?"
"I saw it, Wen Zhiqing really bumped into Manman just now."
"Yeah, Manman almost fell."
"Oh dear, her belly is so big. If she had fallen, it would have been dangerous."
So people indeed saw what happened just now, and they stood up to speak for Gu Yunting.
Any man would be angry if his pregnant wife was nearly knocked over and in danger.
Just giving Wen Zhqing a beating was mild enough.
Bao Shanyan also glared at Wen Zhqing angrily.
Wen Zhqing realized that so many people had seen it, so he could only endure the pain and say, "I didn’t do it on purpose, it was an accident."
Bao Shanyan imdiately said, "Yes, it was an accident."
Gu Yunting snorted, "Just because he says it wasn’t on purpose, it wasn’t on purpose? Fortunately, Manman is alright, or I’d beat him to death."
After saying this, Gu Yunting guided Yang Manman to a less crowded spot.
Everyone else hurried up to see the search results.
Bao Shanyan directly kicked Wen Zhqing in the backside, "Get up, you’re embarrassing. Who let you out?"
Wen Zhqing let out an "ah," another muffled cry of pain.
Bao Shanyan’s kick happened to hit his previous injury, and she had quite the strength behind it.
Wen Zhqing now felt even more pain on top of his earlier injuries.
Luckily, a male educated youth from the knowledge youth point saw this and ca up to help him up.
As for the female educated youths, like Liu Juan and others, they dared not engage anymore.
If they had thoughts about Wen Zhqing before, now, that idea was long gone since he was married to a woman like Bao Shanyan, who seed akin to a bandit or madwoman with incredible strength.
Her intimidating presence dashed any thoughts they had for Wen Zhqing.
Although Wen Zhiqing’s face was handso, they had to stay alive to admire it.
"Useless thing."
After being helped up, Wen Zhqing got scolded by Bao Shanyan again before she stopped paying attention to him and squeezed forward into the crowd to watch.
Watching Bao Shanyan’s back, Wen Zhqing’s gaze fell darkly and fiercely on Gu Yunting and Yang Manman in the corner.
Almost, it won’t be long now.
As long as those people find the banned books, let’s see how arrogant the Gu Family can still be.
He’s looking forward to their fearful and frightened expressions.
And for that Yang Manman...
Wen Zhqing stuffed the now empty packet into his own pocket.
