Mrs. Xu Zhang pooh-poohed him, "I don't have the habit of gossiping like hers. I always say one thing and another, and I will never make things up out of nothing to make trouble. What I look down on are those dogs that talk nonsense.

Things!"

"Yes, yes, mother, you are so generous and open-minded..."

"I'm so generous. I'm not convinced when I think about it. They know clearly that the Duan family is our in-laws, but they still talk nonsense like this. They are trying to harm the marriage. They don't have peace of mind. They are rotten things! No,

I won’t be going home for a while, so I’ll go to Liaojia Village first to settle the score with this old lady!”

Mrs. Xu Zhang became angrier the more she thought about it.

I walked faster and faster, as if there was wind under my feet, and I had to rush to Liaojia Village.

Xu Jiaojiao persuaded her, "Mom, you have been helping the Duan family for a day and you are tired. There is no proof or evidence for this kind of thing. It is useless to argue. It is getting late. Go home."

Let’s wait until one day when we have a good rest.”

Mrs. Xu Zhang may not listen to what others say. Since the old girl has said this, she still has to give her face.

Next time, just next time.

What the old girl said makes sense.

Mrs. Xu Zhang scolded Dagang's wife like this all the way home.

***

The Gu Blacksmith family has been closed for the past few days and has not gone out.

After Lao Yingtou came back from Xujiacun, although he didn't mention it deliberately, the scandal of the Gu family spread widely, and everyone in the neighborhood knew about it.

Everyone knew that Gu Xiuer was pregnant before marriage, and they still wanted to blame the Gu family's young apprentice.

Previously, when Gu Xiuer was a few months pregnant, she rarely went out. No one knew she was pregnant. They only occasionally bumped into men in their house. They made some rough guesses, but there was no confirmation after all.

It's great now, everyone knows.

She got pregnant out of wedlock and did such an immoral thing.

As soon as the Gu family members go out, they will definitely be watched and criticized, and they will be scolded and shameless. The Gu family members will be too embarrassed to go out.

On the day when Gu Blacksmith beat Gu almost to death, Gu Xiuer's stomach became red, and Gu Blacksmith sent her to the doctor to save the fetus.

These days, I am raising my baby at home.

The doctor said that if the fetus is stillborn at one month old, it will cause serious harm to the mother's body.

After returning home, Gu Blacksmith stopped beating Gu Shi to stimulate Gu Xiuer.

There's no point in fighting, things are like this anyway.

The blacksmith Gu had regarded Gu Xiu'er as his biological daughter for so many years, and suddenly something like this happened. It was just a matter of the mother-in-law going back to her old business and selling it, and it was a matter of forgetting that Xiu'er was led astray. Unexpectedly, Xiu'er was not his.

Biological daughter.

This made him feel endless pain. What was the purpose of working hard and making money all his life?

It is to live a good life in the future.

He is in a dangerous place like Hancheng. There are savages besieging the city. If he is not careful, his life will be in danger. Is it easy to make some money by forging iron?

For whom?

Not all for Xiuer!

Now, Xiu'er was not his biological child. He had been raised by others for seventeen years. No wonder she looked nothing like him. He had never doubted it and thought he had inherited it from her mother...

Gu Blacksmith only felt that his faith had collapsed. In the past few days, he drank every day to relieve his sorrows and was drunk every day. He did not dare to go out. As soon as he went out, the neighbors' colored eyes and sympathetic looks made him unable to hold his head up.

Firstly, Gu was too embarrassed to go out, and secondly, she couldn't go out either. She was beaten to death by Gu Blacksmith, and she couldn't get out of bed. There were bruises all over her body, and her legs were about to be broken.

If you don't raise it for ten days and a half, you won't be able to walk easily.

On this day, Gu Shi felt better. He got out of bed and walked leaning on the wall, planning to go to the kitchen to get something to eat.

She has basically had nothing to eat or drink in the past few days. Blacksmith Gu made food for Gu Xiuer and would not give it to her.

He wouldn't even give her a drink of water.

As soon as I moved out of the room, I heard a knocking at the courtyard gate outside.

"Open the door! Open the door!!!"

The voices sounded unfriendly at first glance, and they seemed to belong to more than one or two people.

Gu stood at the door of the room and asked towards the courtyard gate, "Who is it?"

I heard someone outside reply, "Who is it? Don't you know it if you open the door? Open the door, open the door quickly! We are looking for Gu Xiuer..."

At this time, the ancient blacksmith also appeared.

He was very drunk, shaking his head and trying to open the door.

Gu Shi stopped her, "Don't go, don't go, the person looking for Xiu'er must have bad intentions."

The ancient blacksmith stopped.

The people outside seemed to be impatient, "Open the door, did you hear me? What are you trying to do? We've already inquired about it, and we know that Gu Xiu'er lives here. Our lady came here specifically to see your Gu Xiu'er today.

Son’s…”

The more he said this, the more frightened Gu became.

The ancient blacksmith was so drunk that he shouted towards the door, "Who are you? What do you want to do? If you don't sign up, you can never step into my house."

Gu Xiuer also heard the movement inside, "Mom, what happened?"

There was a burst of ridicule from outside, "Want to hear your name? We are from the Wang family in Anping County. I heard that Gu Xiu'er, the elder of your family, is pregnant with our father's son. Our wife has come to pick up Gu Xiu'er and join our Wang family as a young mistress. She is very popular.

Let’s go for something spicy…”

People outside burst into laughter.

Without any further hesitation, Gu hurriedly turned around, went into the house and picked up a small package.

This is the gold and silver she has already collected, and she has earned it in the past two years.

Gu Blacksmith beat her to death this time, and she got her words straight.

She was afraid that her life with the ancient blacksmith would be unbearable, so she thought of running away one day after her injury healed.

Otherwise, in the hands of the ancient blacksmith, he might be beaten to death one day.

It's a good time now, so you can take advantage of this opportunity and run away.

She hid the package in her belt and wrapped it, then went to Gu Xiuer's room.

"Come on, Xiu'er, let's go through the back door."

Gu Xiuer refused to leave, "Mom, why are we leaving? This is our home... I'm not afraid of whoever comes. It's against the law to break into a private house. Let's go report it to the authorities!"

Although he said this, there was panic in his voice.

She also heard people outside saying that it was the Wang family in Anping County. The mother and daughter knew the Wang family in Anping County very well.

Wang Dahu's wife is known for her jealousy and she came to Wang Dahu's house for some reason.

If we meet, it will be great!

I feel very guilty.

Gu Shi pulled Gu Xiu'er and left, gritting his teeth and saying, "Who is this wicked and heartless person who actually went to the neighboring county to report the news to Wang Shi? Let's go quickly, Xiu'er, let your father handle it first, how about we

Let’s go, I’m afraid today won’t end well.”
