Chapter 265: Young Aunt’s Words (2)

The eldest son of the Li family, Li Dajiang, sat on a stool in Wang Mingtao’s house and spoke to Wang Mingtao as though it was a given, “Leader, you must be a judge in this matter. Dahai only looked for his wife and did not do anything overboard but the Gu family actually beat him up to this state. This is too much.
“This is not a small matter. They must be punished severely and pay the medical bills as well. My Dahai suffered such serious injuries. You must not forget the medical bills.”
Wang Mingtao was an intelligent person and looking at the situation before him, of course he knew what was happening.
Gu Yunshuang has been bullied by the Li family for so many years and was eventually chased out. Afterward, the brothers of the Gu family returned and went to the Li family with Gu Yunshuang to ask for a divorce and cut all relations with them.
This was not a secret in the Qing River Brigade.
Many people still lamented about the Gu family’s foolishness for actually wanting back a married daughter and even raising their granddaughter in their family.
But there were some who admired the Gu family for emphasizing on familial ties, especially some women who were extremely touched to see that there were such maiden families around.
Wang Mingtao was aware that Li Dahai recently came to look for Gu Yunshuang and he was also clear of the Gu family’s attitude.
He had some understanding of those people in the Gu family and if not for the restriction in the current generation, the Gu family would definitely not be in this state now.
Wang Mingtao took a sip of tea at his own pace and said, “You said that Li Dahai is in this state because the Gus beat him up?”
“Of course!”
Li Dajiang replied with affirmation.
“Nonsense. In the evening yesterday, I clearly saw Li Dahai leaving our brigade by himself. He was perfectly fine at that time, and the Gu family did not even hit him.”
Li Dajiang just finished speaking but someone from the Qing River Brigade retorted him immediately.
Many of the people in this generation were still very pure and someone indeed saw Li Dahai leaving yesterday. Although the Gu family was a landlord family and had a bad class status, people would still stand out to defend them when they see that the Gu family is accused.
Chen Goudan, who had already changed his name to Chen Feng, said with flickering eyes, “I also feel that the Gu family will not hit people. I am right at the foot of the mountain. If Uncle Dahai was hit by the Gu family yesterday, we would definitely be able to hear some noise. But there were no strange noises at all yesterday so it’s impossible for the Gu family to have hit him.
“It can’t be possible for someone to remain silent when beaten up to this state, right? Our entire brigade should be able to hear his screams instead.”
Chen Goudan had already changed his name during the new year. He never had a formal name since the start and people had been calling him “Goudan” “Goudan” since young.
Now that he was living alone, he changed his name straight away.
Feng for Fengli*!
*Fengli translates to sharp in English
Everyone looked at him when he spoke.
Everyone in this brigade was extremely familiar with this child. He was once a scrawny boy who worked endlessly day and night and lived a tough life in his uncle’s family. He and his younger sister did not die from starvation only because they had been relying on the food that some kind people in the brigade gave them frequently.
Years ago, he moved out and lived alone with his younger sister.
Over a few short months, he grew taller and became slightly chubbier. Even his younger sister looked more like a human now!
Chen Feng looked at the way that everyone was looking at him and was increasingly thankful to the Gu family.
Over this period of time, Gu Qingyao had been taking care of them secretly. Otherwise, the food allocated from the Chen family was simply insufficient.
Everyone pondered after what he said and many agreed with him.
“That’s right. We did not even hear any noise yesterday. How can the Gu family possibly hit him? Does Li Dahai not know how to call for help when he’s beaten up to this state?”
