After returning home, Gu Loong told Gu Qingzi everything that the Village Head had said. Gu Qingzi did not expect him to have such a plan. She frowned and looked at Gu Loong worriedly, "Brother, are you alright?"

Gu Loong lowered his head and sighed, "I'm fine, I just don't know what to say to Mom and Dad."

This time, Gu Qingzi started to worry. To be honest, she didn't really understand these twists and turns, but it wouldn't be so easy to take advantage of her!

No, I have to find the Village Head for a reason. No matter how rich he is, he can't just give the land to someone else for no reason, not to mention the situation with the family. Gu Qingzi and Gu Loong sighed and went out to look for the Village Head.

Gu Qingzi walked slowly to the Village Head's door, countless theories flashing through her mind before she finally came to a decision. Gu Qingzi walked up and knocked on the door.

The village chief opened the door and saw that it was a member of the Gu family. His face turned fierce, "Why are you here?"

As the saying goes, one does not hit a smiling person. Gu Qingzi glanced at the Village Head, then lowered her head and smiled. "Village Head, I have come to discuss the matter of splitting the land with you."

"Tsk, didn't you already tell your brother about this child? Why did you come over here again? " The village chief looked at Gu Qingzi with an unhappy expression. He reached out his hand to pull the door open, making a gesture to close the door. "Go back and ask your brother."

Gu Qingzi blocked the door with her hand and smiled gently, "Ah, Village Head, you can't say that. Elder brother might not have shown his face, but everyone in the village knows about our current situation, so he should give us some land."

"No, no." The Village Chief's expression immediately changed, "There is no place for you. Go back, and pester me again. Don't blame me for being impolite!"

"Village Head, how can you do such a thing? That place should have a part of our Gu family. You can't just say that and not give it to us." Gu Qingziyi was unrelenting. She definitely could not let the Village Head fool her like this.

The village chief looked at Gu Qingzi gloomily, "Do you not understand human speech?" "Let me tell you, Miss Gu, if you dare bring up the matter of dividing up the land again, I'll kick your Gu family out of our village."

"You!" Gu Qingzi's eyes widened in disbelief. The village chief had openly threatened her just like that!

The door in front of her slammed shut. Gu Qingzi let go of her hands angrily and turned around to find the proper room. She ran to the door and explained everything that had happened.

Li Zheng pondered for a long time before looking at Gu Qingzi. He shook his head and said, "I might not be able to help you with this favor. Go back, don't fight with the Village Head."

Gu Qingzi did not expect that even the person who held the authority to uphold justice would not speak out. She had no other choice, so when she thought of Widow Lee's words, she could only helplessly go to the yamen.

"Old Wang, why aren't you helping the Gu family?" Li Zheng's daughter-in-law asked while hanging her wet clothes.

"The next selection to be held is about to be held. I also want a word from the village chief. Tell me, how do you think I should help the Gu family?" Moreover, the Gu Clan is no longer the Gu Clan of the past. Just as he finished speaking, Li Zheng got up and walked into the study. "You wouldn't understand even if I told you."

Li Zheng's wife rolled her eyes. Her heart was as clear as a mirror. She clearly knew, so she didn't ask any further questions.

On the other side, Gu Qingzi still wanted to give it another try before she returned to the Village Chief's house and knocked on the door. "Village Chief, if you don't deal with the matter of dividing the land, I'll go report it to the official. We'll meet at the yamen."

The village chief had intended to ignore her, but when he heard Gu Qingzi mention she was going to report it, his expression immediately changed. He hastily opened the door, looked at the smiling Gu Qingzi, and angrily shouted, "Stop it!"

"Isn't this all up to how you plan to handle this matter, Village Chief?" Gu Qingzi raised her brows and smiled. She felt that this time, the village chief would deal with this matter.

In the end, the Village Head sneered, "If you dare complain, I'll chase your Gu family out of the village!"

With that, the door closed once more.

Gu Qingzi was so angry that her gums started to itch. She didn't expect the village chief to be so soft and unyielding. She stomped her feet in anger and left, returning to the Gu household.

Seeing Gu Loong look over, Gu Qingzi shook her head and lowered her head in disappointment. Gu Qingzi didn't know what to say, so she went back to her room to write a letter of complaint. After she was done drying up, she came out and handed it to Gu Loong.

"Will it really work?" Gu Loong didn't dare to believe it.

"I can."

Gu Loong nodded, put the letter of complaint into his chest and went to the yamen.

The village chief sent people to keep an eye on the Gu family. When he noticed Gu Loong heading towards the yamen, he ordered the village's local thugs to beat Gu Loong up.

It was difficult for two fists to fight against four hands. In the end, Gu Loong came home with a body full of injuries and the complaint was also taken away.

Seeing Gu Loong, who was covered in injuries, Gu Qingzi cursed silently. She never thought that a trivial village head would have the delusions of covering the sky with one hand!

"Big brother, what's going on?" Gu Qingzi's heart ached and she could not help but ask Gu Loong, "Who hit him?"

"Hiss ~" Gu Loong gasped, "I didn't know I was walking properly, so a group of thugs suddenly came out and beat me up."

"This must be the village chief's doing. He saw you walking in the direction of the yamen, so he deliberately tried to stop you." Apart from the Village Head, Gu Qingzi did not want to be the second person. She hated the Village Head so much that she took out some medicine from her room and applied it on Gu Loong.

"It's just that, it's about our family's matter of the fields." Gu Loong couldn't help but cover his face with his hands, "Is it really gone?"

Looking at Gu Loong's expression, Gu Qingzi felt uncomfortable. After thinking for a while, she finally made a decision. "Big brother, you stay at home. I'll be back soon. I'm not going to look for the Village Head."

"Be careful on your way."

"I will."

Gu Qingzi went to the river to wash her clothes and wash up. She saw a silly fish next to her legs, bumping into her, directly grabbing the fish and carrying it home.

He brought the fish to the kitchen. After he made sure that no one was looking, Gu Qingzi took some laxatives from the space and fed them to the fish. Then, she took the fish to the Village Head's house.

That's right, she was going to 'murder' the Village Head!

He walked up to the village chief's door and said, "Button--"

The Village Chief opened the door and saw Gu Qingzi. His brows furrowed even more as he asked, "Why is it you again?"

"I'll send you the fish. A while ago, we weren't very sensible, and my brother and I collided with you, so we are juniors, don't lower yourself to the same level as us. This is a fish I caught by the river, I specifically brought it here for you to have a taste." Gu Qingzi smiled and handed the fish over to the village chief. "It's fresh. The fish is still alive and kicking."

"En, this matter shall be done. You are not allowed to bring it up again." The village chief accepted the fish.
