"Oh, okay, okay." Gu Wei was in a trance as he instinctively took the umbrella from Gu Qingzi.

The two walked in peace. On the way, Gu Wei was silent, making Gu Qingzi think that he was a different person.

When they arrived at the field, Lian Qingmei was also shocked. She didn't expect Gu Wei to come.

When they reached the place, Gu Wei handed Gu Zhi to Gu Qingzi and picked up the hoe from the ground. Then, he started to work silently.

Everyone looked at each other. Seeing Gu Wei's situation, Lian Qingmei was a bit worried. She walked up to Gu Qingzi and whispered, "Third sister, what happened to my husband?"

When I went back home and saw him playing with Gu Zhi, I told him about it for a while. The moment he got angry, he insisted on coming over, probably angry. Of course, it was impossible for Gu Qingzi to tell Lian Qingmei the truth. She could only fool them and casually say a few words. It was always like this for Gu Wei in the past. Lian Qingmei didn't find it strange for a moment.

"So that's the case. Third sister, don't bother with him. Second Brother has such a temper." Lian Qingmei sighed, turned around, and returned to the field to continue her work.

The women in the village weren't pampered, and could all go to the ground. It was also because the Gu family's conditions were good in the past, and Madame Gu only had this daughter, and she was still an elder of the family. It was inevitable that she would prefer to go to the village and never let Gu Qingzi go to the fields.

Gu Wei looked like he was working. In fact, when Lian Qingmei asked Gu Qingzi, he also listened attentively. Gu Qingzi did not tell the truth, which made him feel relieved and started working honestly.

The sun had already moved to the middle of the sky. Old Man Gu held onto his waist as he shaded his eyes with one hand, "Bring your things with you. It's already noon. Go home and eat lunch. Let's sleep and rest first."

"Sigh." Gu Qingzi agreed. She glanced at Madame Gu and said, "Mom, I'll go back and wash the dishes first. I'll cook later."

"Alright, slow down on your way."

"Got it."

Gu Qingzi returned Gu Zhi to Lian Qingzi, took everyone's hoes away, threw the kettle into a bamboo basket and left the field.

After a short while, everyone returned home. Gu Qingzi purposely paused at the door, pretending to wait for her family. Her ears twitched as she heard the noise coming from the side.

"My son! Why do you have such a hard time! " Lee Erpi's mother pulled Lee Erpi, crying until they burst into tears and snot came out all over his face.

"Hehehe." Lee Erpi smiled dumbly.

"My son, don't worry. Mother will definitely help you seek justice!" Lady Liu pulled Lee Erpi away.

Gu Qingzi turned around and walked into the house.

After lunch, Gu Qingzi was not yet sleepy. She took out a stool from her room and sat down in the shade of a tree by the door, holding a handful of melon seeds and kowtowing to them.

Gu Qingzi couldn't hear what Liu Niang said as she pulled the other hoodlums. She could only see the seniors of the last few hoodlums giving money to Liu Niang. Presumably, this matter should be resolved in this way.

She did not expect Gu Wei to be so timid. After thinking for a moment, Gu Qingzi understood, after all, he knew Lee Erpi, and because of his appearance, he should be afraid of retribution.

After knocking on the last melon seed, Gu Qingzi picked up the bench and walked to open the door. Gu Wei jumped in shock and quickly hid behind the door. Gu Qingzi's mouth twitched. She turned around and closed the door and said in a low voice, "Second Brother, you don't need to look. The matter has been resolved."

Gu Wei nodded with a pale face, while Gu Qingzi pursed her lips. Forget it.

After some sleep, everyone got up to go to the fields again, but Gu Wei didn't go.

This time, Lian Qingmei felt that this was Gu Wei's way of doing things. She didn't say much and only instructed him, "Then you have to guard Zhi at home and not give him anything to eat. The sun is hot outside, so don't take him out either …"

Gu Wei agreed without a trace of impatience, "Wifey, are there any left?"

"That's all. Stay at home and guard the house. Don't take the kids for a stroll." Lian Qingmei smiled as she felt Gu Wei was a little obedient today.

"Don't worry, I won't go out." Gu Wei felt relieved and found an excuse.

Gu Wei did not go out until night. He was really scared that Lee Erpi's mom outside would ask for money from other hoodlums and this matter would be solved. But for some reason, he felt that this matter was not over and he did not dare to show his face due to a bad premonition.

When everyone returned home, they were surprised to find that Gu Wei was still at home. Gu Qingzi, on the other hand, knew the whole story. Gu Wei must have been scared.

They sat down and had a rare harmonious meal together. Gu Wei agreed to whatever Lian Qingmei asked Gu Wei to do.

On the Village Chief's side, she was frowning shabbily. How could such a fine person be so foolish? Thinking about how Gu Qingzi knew how to treat doctors, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration. Maybe it was done by someone from the Gu family. No! The Gu family must not be allowed to relax.

The next morning, the Village Chief brought a group of people and Lady Liu to the Gu household.

When Gu Qingzi heard the commotion outside, she immediately got up to open the door.

Seeing that it was the Village Chief, confusion appeared on his face. He could not help but ask, "It's still early in the morning. Village Chief, what are you doing?"

"Someone said that Lee Erpi was foolish when he was around your home. What did you say?" The Village Head's expression changed, his words were unquestionable!

"Good, so my son was foolish because of your Gu family!" Liu Niang immediately exploded. She stood with her hands around her waist and cursed, "None of your Gu family members are good. They're all disasters. You deserve your punishment for what you have done now!"

"Three feet above the head, there is a god! Auntie Liu, be careful! " Gu Qingzi's face darkened as well. It was still early in the morning and anyone would be angry if they were scolded when they opened the door.

However, Auntie Liu did not believe this, "Don't talk to me about this or that Buddha or some other god. Let me tell you, you have a guilty conscience!"

"Do you think your son is a good person? He's just like me, Second Brother, and you still call him our son. Just look at your son, right? Who exactly is the one who will die a horrible death if he gets old? Since Aunty Liu was rude, she was not the Holy Mother. Who was the one who scolded her? She scolded back ten times and even made a knife in someone else's wound. "Who's going to give you old age? It's already good enough for your foolish son to have a meal after you die.
