Gu Dong looked at Ai Cao's small appearance,
His heart palpitated,
He had a bad feeling. If she really handled this well..,
She shouldn't have such an expression.
"Gu Dong!" Ai Cao looked at Gu Dong,
She really looked like she was about to cry. She wanted to say something but hesitated.
"It's okay,
Open the door. "Ai Cao's behavior really made Gu Dong's heart feel colder and colder,
But he couldn't say anything in front of so many people,
He could only go up and open the door,
He held Ai Cao's hand and comforted her silently.
"Hmph, don't dawdle,
Everyone, hurry up and come in. " Zhang Xianglan called Ai Yaozong and a group of high-spirited young people behind him and directly pushed open the door and rushed in.
At this time, it was useless to say anything. Zhang Xianglan led a group of people to search the kitchen, the main hall, the east and west rooms, and even the water tank,
They didn't even let go of the stove and the ground.
They hadn't found anything yet, but it was as if Gu Dong's house was already a thief. Each of them was very rough when they acted,
Crackling..,
Not only were there pots that were knocked over,
There were also clothes that were thrown to the ground,
And tables and chairs that were knocked over.
"What a sin!" Old Gu's tears flowed down his face,
Looking at the scene in the courtyard,
His heart ached. If it weren't for the composition of his family, his grandson wouldn't have been ostracized in the village. He wouldn't have been stared at at at the slightest sign of trouble.
Looking at the mess in the house, with a group of people going back and forth to rummage through the cabinets and cupboards, should he resist? Gu Dong also wanted to, but the truth was, because of his composition, as long as he dared to resist, whether they found what they wanted in his house or not, they could casually accuse him.
Ai Cao pulled Gu Dong's clothes and stood behind him. Her watery eyes were filled with tears. These people were too lawless. They had turned her family into such a mess, but she could only be angry. She was so sad that she wanted to die.
She had been in society for so long, and the impact she had received this time was even greater than what she had received in the Ai family. The Ai family could be said to be the cause of her family's problems. But now, looking at these people who were biting her house like mad dogs, it was not just one or two people's problems. She felt that there was a problem with the entire society.
He didn't care about the truth and only believed in what he thought was right. As for her, she was at the bottom of society. If anything happened to her, her family could only be trampled on by others.
This was probably the reason why Gu Dong was unable to find a wife even though he was quite capable. It turned out that the phrase 'little bastard of the Earthly Lord' was not just for show. When something happened, it could really take someone's life.
Some people seemed to have gone crazy, while most of them were just spectators who didn't care about what was going on.
The Ai Cao glanced at Gu Dong and closed his eyes. When he opened them again, the uneasiness and fear in his eyes had been replaced by determination.
"Nothing! Captain, there's nothing here! "
"We don't have anything here either!"
"We can't find it, Captain!"
"Look under the bed and in the cupboard. The grandson of the Earthly Lord is definitely not a good seedling! We definitely can't let any of the bad guys go! Everyone, continue. If you find it, you'll have done a great service today. We're helping society get rid of a malignant tumor. We can't be soft-hearted! "
Zhang Xianglan and the group of people around her were like flies that had caught meat. They looked like they wouldn't give up until they found it.
"Captain, they've ruined my house. What if we can't find it?" No one expected that the usually silent and timid Ai Cao, who always hid behind Gu Dong, would speak at this time.
The discussion in the crowd quieted down because of the Ai Cao's words. Everyone's eyes immediately focused on the captain.
Ai Ershun, who was leaning against the courtyard door, clenched his fists. He looked at the Ai Cao with eyes full of reluctance. However, when he saw Gu Dong next to her, his eyes instantly became gloomy again.
He had seen the Ai Cao enter the house with his own eyes. The Gu Family wouldn't be able to make a comeback this time.
"That's right, Captain. If they can really find it, then it'll be fine. If they can't find it, then it won't be good for my house to be in this state. Also, I can't be wronged for no reason, right? "Gu Dong asked as he looked at the group of people in front of him with a face full of sarcasm.
Old Madam Ai's eyes were full of malice. She looked back and forth between the Ai Cao and Gu Dong and said disdainfully, "It's too early to say whether you've been wronged or not."
"Gu Dong! What do you want? If you can't find it, then it can only prove that you didn't steal anything. You're just a landlord and a rich old man. What kind of explanation do you want us to give you?! "Zhang Xianglan, who had searched around, was now uncertain.
However, some people were unreasonable. Gu Dong's background and background made her feel that he was inferior to them. He should accept whatever they did to him.
"You …" Gu Dong's knuckles cracked, but the Ai Cao held him back. They couldn't be impulsive. If they were impulsive, they would be the ones to suffer in the end.
Right now, they could only endure all of this. Gu Dong understood this in his heart. However, it was precisely because he understood this that he felt even more upset and heartbroken.
The captain didn't say anything, while the others just watched as a joke. The Ai Cao looked around at them, then stubbornly raised her small face and said to Zhang Xianglan, "Then hurry up and search. If you can't find it, then hurry up and leave. It's late and we're still waiting to eat!"
"Damned girl, eat your head!" The Ai Yaozong circled around the house a few times. The Gu Family's basket was placed on the kitchen floor, but they couldn't find anything in this house. His temper had already flared up. When he heard the Ai Cao's words, he flipped the Gu Family's pot over.
"Are you f * cking looking for death?!" Everyone's temper had a certain level of tolerance. Once that limit was crossed, it was easy for impulsiveness to overtake one's brain.
Right now, all of this was caused by the Ai family. They even dared to bully his family. Did they really think that he, Gu Dong, was a coward?! In any case, he couldn't avoid punishment even if they found the item. Why should he have any scruples now?
Therefore, the impulsive Gu Dong went up and pressed the Ai Yaozong to the ground. He kicked and beat him to vent his anger.
When the Ai family's old woman saw that her grandson was being beaten, she didn't rush to get someone to pull him away. Instead, she looked at the Ai Dabao and Ai Ershun behind the crowd and signaled them to help.
One against three, he would definitely be at a disadvantage.
The Ai Cao's exclamation, Grandpa Gu's sobs, and the crowd's reluctance to watch the show intertwined.
"Stop!" Seeing this ridiculous scene, the brigade leader finally spoke up. However, the Ai family wouldn't let go so easily. They finally restrained Gu Dong with great difficulty.
Seeing that Fu Jiu's eyes were red with anxiety, and seeing that the brigade leader had spoken, Fu Qiang, who was blocking him, rushed forward and started to fight.
Fu Qiang frowned slightly and shouted, "Fu Jiu, just pull him away. Pull him away." As he spoke, he also went forward. Although he said that he was pulling the fight, he was actually pulling the fight to one side. There were so many people around, but Fu Qiang didn't attack anyone. He just grabbed the hands of the mad dog, Ai Yaozong, and trapped him.
"Quickly pull him away! Fighting in public, do you all want to go to jail?! " The brigade leader saw the chaos in front of him. He angrily pointed at the young people behind him and asked them to quickly go forward and separate them.
After pulling them away, the Ai Cao quickly ran over to Gu Dong. Gu Dong wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, indicating that he was fine. He didn't lose in the fight just now.
At this point, the brigade leader looked at Zhang Xianglan, who was almost done with the commotion, and asked them if they found anything. If they didn't, then they should quickly leave. The sky was already dark, and everyone went back to their homes to eat.
Zhang Xianglan and the others searched until now, but they didn't find anything. However, there was no awkwardness or embarrassment on their faces. They directly said, "There's nothing, brigade leader. Let everyone go back. It might be a misunderstanding! "
"What misunderstanding! I saw him steal the food! "Ai Yaozong stood beside Old Lady Ai and refused to let go. When the Ai family's old lady heard Zhang Xianglan's words, her old face twitched and became as ugly as it could be.
"Haha, you have a red mouth and white teeth, but you insist on framing people. Don't you care about the brigade leader? I've already said that it's because I saw them stealing food, so they framed me! "
When he heard that Zhang Xianglan didn't find anything, Gu Dong immediately became spirited. He smiled and asked the brigade leader what kind of explanation this was.
"Gu Dong, don't pester endlessly. Maybe my Yaozong saw wrongly. But Lan Lan, our Yaozong is doing it for everyone's sake. He's the grandson of a landlord and is wandering back and forth on the mountain. I'm afraid that he might really take the things he brought."
Haha, now that Old Lady Ai said this, everyone present rolled their eyes at her in their hearts.
Seeing the captain's ugly expression, Zhang Xianglan also had a look of displeasure on her face. She hurriedly explained, "Our ancestors, the Ai family, were poor farmers for eight generations. Their roots are upright and they are not like those crooked people. Didn't you all say that you won't let a bad person go? If you have doubts, you should at least come and take a look. My Yaozong is doing it out of kindness. He wholeheartedly followed your requests and reported when he saw something wrong. "
There were some simple-minded people in the village who believed in these words. They felt that the Ai family was good because they were poor farmers, and Gu Dong's roots must be bad if his roots were bad.
The current situation was like this. Their family had been messed up, and there were not many people who felt that it was unfair for them. Most of them were still adapting to the times and felt that what Old Lady Ai said was right. However, there were also people who were happy for the Gu family. If they messed up, then so be it. In any case, they had cleared their name in the end. This was quite good for them.
A farce was raised high and put down gently. In the end, it ended just like this.
Gu Dong watched as the people who were watching the show left his courtyard one by one. In the end, he sent Fu Jiu and Fu Fang out. Then, he slammed the courtyard door shut.
"Sigh, Dongzi …" Old Gu squatted on the ground. He looked even older and weak.
Gu Dong was unhappy and angry. However, his grandfather was here. He could not be too conspicuous. Otherwise, he would feel sad in his heart again.
"I'm fine. Let's go in. I'm used to it. This happened a lot in the early years. I'm used to it. I don't mind. "After comforting his grandfather, Gu Dong looked at the Ai Cao with a smile on his face." Good, you're smart today! "
He was worried to death before. He did not expect that this little fool of his was not stupid at the crucial moment. She even dared to speak in front of so many people today. Heh, it seemed that she was not a coward. Good, very good. Gu Dong's wife should be like this.
The Ai Cao did not know that Gu Dong was praising her in his heart. She only lowered her head slightly and said shyly, "No, I'm not stupid. I'm smart!" She always remembered that Gu Dong called her little fool and little fool.
"Heh, you're not stupid. I won't call you stupid in the future. By the way, where did you hide the thing?" They had already turned the house upside down, but they still could not find it. He was very curious now. Where did the Ai Cao hide the thing?
"It's behind the house. You two go in. I'll go get it!"
"I'll go with you!"
"No need!" The Ai Cao rejected Gu Dong's help without turning her head.
There was a small door outside the house next to the west side of the house. It led directly to the courtyard. It was usually used to go to the toilet behind the house. Seeing the Ai Cao run past it, Gu Dong chuckled and shook his head.
Where did she hide the thing? They had looked for it behind the house just now.
A few minutes later, she came back with the basket and explained to them that there was an abandoned well not far from their toilet behind the house. She hid the basket in the well.
Grandpa Gu knew about the old well. It had been abandoned for decades. He nodded and praised the Ai Cao for being smart. He even turned to Gu Dong and praised his wife for being smart. This old well …
Seeing the two men in the house happily praising her, the Ai Cao guiltily looked down at her toes and stuck out her tongue.
Actually, she did not hide it in the well at all. To be exact, she did not know where she hid it. She could go to another place.
