Chapter 1328: Chapter 1328: Gao Suhua Creates a Commotion
After dinner, Gu Qianru said she hadn’t gone back yesterday and was worried about the old man, so she decided not to stay here tonight.
Luo Qiao handed her over to her own father: “Dad, please take good care of auntie and safely get her ho.”
Luo Haotian smiled and said, “Alright, rest assured.”
Watching them drive away, Luo Qiao then returned to the backyard, took a shower, and sprawled on the bed, not wanting to move.
Lu Yichen brought Luo Qiao a glass of milk: “Qiao Bao, here, drink the milk.”
Luo Qiao took it and slowly started to drink; having gone out for a walk, her mood was not as upset as before, but she still felt listless.
Lu Yichen reached out to tuck her stray hair behind her ear and softly said: “Gao Suhua behaved well in prison, got her sentence reduced three tis, and was released early.”
Hearing this, Luo Qiao leaned into Lu Yichen’s arms: “That’s good. I’m afraid Zhao Pulin is going to have so interesting days ahead.”
Lu Yichen kissed the top of Luo Qiao’s head: “He probably will. Although they haven’t obtained a marriage certificate, they are married in practice, there’s definitely going to be trouble.”

anwhile, 20 miles away from Qingshan Village, in Ge Village, Zhao Pulin, feeling incapable, got off Ge Congi; he had intended to use actions to comfort his wife, but it was over as soon as it began.
Ge Congi was eight years younger than Zhao Pulin, in the pri of her liveliness. She whispered in irritation: “You useless thing, didn’t you expend all your energy on Gao Suhua during the day?
Zhao Pulin frowned and said: “What are you talking about? We’ve lived together for over a decade, and our Xiaoru is already eight. How could I do anything to betray you?”
Ge Congi snorted coldly: “Don’t forget, this is Ge Village. If you betray , I’ll make you pack your bags and get lost. There’s no shortage of n who want to share my bed.”
Zhao Pulin got angry too and, perhaps out of provocation, flipped over and pressed down on Ge Congi again: “You’re my wife now. If you want another man in your bed, that will only happen over my dead body.”
Ge Congi pushed him off: “Stop with the sweet talk and deal with Gao Suhua’s ss already.”
Zhao Pulin was also worried; who would have thought Gao Suhua would be released early? She had been making a scene at their house for days, making them the laughingstock of Ge Village. Even their eight-year-old daughter felt ashad and dared not go outside.
He had thought that after serving a full twenty-year sentence, whether she could get out was still in question, and even if she did, she might not have any vitality or liveliness left.
But unexpectedly, Gao Suhua had been active in prison, received sentence reductions three tis in a row, and now spoke much more eloquently than before, putting on quite a performance. It was said that she had learned cultural knowledge in prison.
And it wasn’t just her causing trouble; those daughters of hers were causing a stir too, claiming he had taken their bridal money to spend on the young widow, neglecting the welfare of his own daughters.
All of them were now demanding an explanation from him. There had just been a scene earlier in the day; it was truly vexing.

Living in her fourth daughter Zhao Xiaohua’s house, Gao Suhua was currently sitting in the room, lost in thought.
Zhao Xiaohua ca in with a bowl of dicinal soup: “Mom, drink the dicine while it’s hot.”
Gao Suhua took it listlessly and pinched her nose to gulp it down: “Xiaohua, your man hasn’t given you a hard ti, has he?”
Zhao Xiaohua put the bowl aside: “Mom, it’s fine, I’m your daughter, staying at ho for a few days, what can he say?”
Gao Suhua, hearing her fourth daughter’s words, didn’t believe her daughter was telling the truth. With her status, who would willingly take her in? Yet the house in Qingshan Village had already been shalessly sold by Zhao Pulin, and now she truly had nowhere to live.
She had stayed with her fifth daughter, Zhao Xiaocao, and youngest daughter, Zhao Xiaoyun, for a few days before, but both tis it didn’t take long before the house was in chaos. She feared her fourth daughter’s ho would also end up fighting because of her.
Determined in her heart, she resolved that tomorrow she must make Zhao Pulin give an explanation. If not, she would turn to the governnt for assistance. She couldn’t be without a place to stay; she wasn’t clinging onto getting him back anymore—Gao Suhua wasn’t soone who settles for scraps.
Zhao Xiaohua said: “Mom, stop sighing, just stay with peacefully, it’s okay.”
Gao Suhua patted her fourth daughter’s hand: “Don’t worry, I’ll go find that shaless man tomorrow. What I’m owed, I won’t let him short a cent, go rest early.”
The next day, Gao Suhua got up early to help her daughter prepare the als, but didn’t wait to eat with her son-in-law and grandchildren, hastily eating before heading out.
When Gao Suhua arrived, Ge Congi had just finished cooking. Gao Suhua quickly approached and flipped the dining table over: “You have the nerve to eat while I don’t even have a place to live.”
This startled Zhao Pulin out of the room, and knowing it was Gao Suhua who had co, he bellowed: “Can’t you just stop for once?”
Zhao Xiaoru, who was just about to co out for a al, got so frightened that she scurried back in, whimpering in tears.
The commotion was quite loud, alarming the neighbors nearby.
Gao Suhua imdiately began cursing: “If you can start on the first of the month, why can’t I make my move on the fifteenth? If you don’t give an explanation today, I’ll go to the governnt. I’m barefoot and not afraid to ruin shoes—if I can’t live well, neither can you two shaless things and that little bastard.”
Everyone knows that I, Gao Suhua, was married to you through matchmakers arranged by your parents. The betrothal gifts, the wedding procession, the banquet—I didn’t miss out on any of those. You say we haven’t got a marriage certificate; I’d like to see how many of the older generations in Ge Village had one.
Now you’re just trying to play Chen Shii and refuse to acknowledge our marriage, pah.
Yesterday, you told that it was that shaless widow here who seduced you and even gave birth to that little bastard.”
Ge Congi couldn’t bear it anymore; it was okay to insult her, but not her daughter: “You ex-convict, what right do you have to criticize my man as Chen Shii? We are legally married with a certificate, and if you curse my daughter again, see if I don’t tear you apart.”
Gao Suhua laughed out loud: “Gentlen, aunties, sisters, listen to what this shaless woman is saying. They are ‘legal’. She knew he had a wife and a daughter, yet she got him into bed and made him get a certificate with her.
Now she’s standing here telling they’re legal and her daughter isn’t a little bastard. What do you all take us for? Listen up, everyone, this woman is no saint. Those without a marriage certificate better watch out; who knows, soday she might drag your man to register and have another little bastard.”
Ge Congi couldn’t stand the insults of ‘little bastard’ being thrown around, and she lunged at Gao Suhua. The two won began to fight.
The village head and the won’s director of Ge Village hurried over, and the onlookers pulled the two won apart. The village head said: “This has been going on for days, with a big scene everyday. Zhao Pulin, can’t you just solve this?
If this matter isn’t resolved today, you’ll have to leave Ge Village; you’ve shad our village completely.”
