Many people were still watching outside!
Gu Jinxuan left the house. He saw many villagers surround the yard and peek inside. They were all desperately curious. After all, Zhou Ping had married so well. The Zhou family’s arrogance in the village had left a deep impression on them.
But… now she was divorced?
She had been sent home?
Gu Jinxuan did not speak. He simply left.
In the courtyard, Grandma Zhou and Oldest Aunt were still in a daze. When they saw Gu Jinxuan leave like that, they looked at Zhou Ping. They did not recover their wits for a long time.
Grandma Zhou looked at Zhou Ping. “You… what did he say just now? Say it again?”
By this time, Zhou Ping was weeping. All the grievances that she had borne for so long came rushing out. She rushed over to Grandma Zhou and fell into her arms and began to sob.
“Mother… wuwuwu…”
“What’s going on. Quick, tell me! It’s almost the New Year. Why are you back? You’re here to save your older brother, right?”
Grandma Zhou immediately looked delighted. “Right, right, right! You must be here to save your older brother. That must be it! Your two older brothers are in trouble, and so are your nephews. That beast, Number Three, has disappeared with his wife. The whole family is in dire straits. Quick! Daughter,
you’re so capable; hurry up and get your brother released. Quick!”
Grandma Zhou grabbed Zhou Ping’s hand and headed for the door.
Zhou Ping did not move. “Mother, it’s no use. No one will listen to me anymore. I’m no longer the Gu family’s daughter-in-law.”
Grandma Zhou’s footsteps faltered. “What did you say?”
Zhou Ping said angrily, “The Gu family is too vicious. They’re getting rid of me just because I borrowed thirty thousand yuan and released Older Brother. They didn’t give me anything but just sent me away. Otherwise, they said they would send me to jail. Mother, I… wuwuwu, what am I going to do? How
can they treat me like that?”
Oldest Aunt rushed over and grabbed Zhou Ping. “What did you say? You’re divorced? The Gu family has driven you out? Then… what about my husband and children? Ah? I don’t care. You had better hurry up and get my husband and Yaozhu out. Quick!”
Zhou Ping had no such ability. At first, she had not believed that she would be divorced and had never imagined that the Gu family would drive her out. But Gu Jinxuan was just too vicious. She had been given no choice.
But now that she was back in the Zhou family, no one showed her any concern. Their only thought was to rescue her older brother and Yaozhu. She herself did not know what to do.
“can’t do it. No one will listen to me. Jinxuan has already said that those who have committed crimes have been arrested. Older Brother, Second Brother and Yaozhu are among those who have committed crimes. Once they’ve been imprisoned, it will be impossible to release them. The new person in
charge will never listen to me. If I go and make a fuss, I might be arrested too.”
“What shall we do then?” Oldest Aunt screamed. “All the men in the Zhou family have been imprisoned. Only us women and children are left. How are we going to survive? Quick, think of a solution!”
Oldest Aunt rushed over to tear at Zhou Ping. Zhou Ping panicked and suddenly had an idea. She said, “Jinxuan…. that’s right; there’s still Jinxuan. Quick, go and chase after Jinxuan and ask him to come back. Don’t let him go. He’s the Gu family’s grandson. They will certainly listen to him.”
With that reminder, Grandma Zhou also recovered her wits and she rushed out.
“Right, right, right, Jinxuan can definitely help.”
At that moment, Jinxuan had not gone far. This was a village, and it was almost the New Year. All the villagers and their relatives were home. When they heard about Zhou Ping’s divorce, they all ran over to ask Gu Jinxuan about it..
