Old Woman Ai's words..,
Undoubtedly wanted Gu Dong to give it to her..,
Give it to her. No matter what, Ershun had saved his life. Today, he had to give it to her..,
He had to give it to her even if he didn't want to!
The people in the courtyard..,
The noise gradually subsided,
Everyone's eyes suddenly gathered on Gu Dong.
Gu Dong, who was actually less than twenty years old..,
In addition to the previous month of illness..,
His face was not as ruddy as the strong young men in the village,
He looked so thin in the bleak cold wind. Compared to the Ai Yaozong in front of him who was baring his fangs and brandishing his claws, the Ai Dabao with a face full of arrogance..,
There was also the shrewd-looking old woman Ai..,
The villagers sympathized, but at this time, no one said a word.
This was a life-saving kindness..,
Old woman Ai's words were meant for Ai Ershun,
It was enough to shut everyone up.
No matter what, Ai Ershun had saved Gu Dong's life,
There was nothing wrong with Gu Dong giving these things to Ai Ershun. At this moment, there was definitely more than one person in the courtyard who had this thought.
No matter how difficult it was for him, he was his life-saving benefactor,
It was only right to repay his kindness.
This was the thinking of most people in the small village. It was fine for him to suffer, but repaying his kindness was something he had to do. If he didn't do it, or if he didn't do it well..,
He would be considered heartless and unscrupulous,
He had no conscience.
Ai Cao stood at the kitchen door,
Looking at the crowd encouraging Gu Dong who was not fated, his heart felt as uncomfortable and bitter as if he had swallowed a lotus seed.
At this time, Gu Dong needed help so much. She should have stood up and stood with him to withstand these "storms", but she could not stand up.
She was the adopted daughter of the Ai family. Whether she admitted it or not, she was! In the eyes of the villagers, the Ai family had adopted her, raised her, and even married her. This was kindness. No one cared whether she had been "sold" or not, or what the Ai family had exchanged for her. The villagers only felt that the Ai family's kindness to her was greater than the sky.
The Ai Cao's eyes turned red. He clenched his fists tightly and held back the agitation in his heart.
Gu Dong was not a fool. He must have his own reasons for luring people into his house. She could not go out. If she went out at this time, it would only push them into another passive situation.
Gu Dong seemed to know what the Ai Cao was thinking. He tilted his body and gave her a slight smirk. He wanted to tell her that it was fine and that he could handle this.
Wasn't it just an item? From the moment he had returned home, he had not cared. According to the Ai family's character, it was certain that they would not be able to keep the item. Gu Dong did not care about these things. What he cared about was what could separate them from the Ai family!
The Ai family was like an annoying fly. Previously, it had not been easy for the two families to ignore each other. In the end, because he was hospitalized and the Ai Ershun gave him blood, they had become sticky and annoying candy that he could not get rid of.
Gu Dong was not against repaying kindness, but the Ai family was too greedy. Previously, when he was hospitalized, his grandfather had already given the Ai family something. However, the Ai family was like a group of locusts. They took advantage of this matter and became more and more insatiable.
It had not been easy for him to keep his name. Now, he just wanted to live a stable life. He did not want to disgust the Ai family!
"Ershun saved my life. This thing should be given to Ershun for his wedding. It's only right. But … "
"Hahahaha, I told you earlier that this thing belongs to my family. Why were you chattering just now? Damn! Why didn't you obediently let us take it away from you earlier? You little bastard from a landlord family. You still want to eat white rice noodles. You're really something! "
Before Gu Dong could finish speaking, the Ai Yaozong proudly shouted at the people standing in the courtyard. He was very arrogant.
"But!" Gu Dong raised his voice and looked at the brigade leader and the villagers. He frowned with a bitter expression and continued with determination, "I will repay Ershun for Ershun's kindness! But everyone in the village knows the situation of my Gu family. If these things are taken away, it's hard to say if my family can survive this winter. Yaozong did not leave any food for the three lives of my family. We have already repaid this kindness. "
The winter in the countryside was very bitter and cold. During this period, even if it was a normal year, people would not be able to survive until spring. Now that the Gu family did not have any food left, the Ai family's method was a little too ruthless. It was simply killing.
There was a lot of discussion in the crowd. This kind of disdain was directed at Old Lady Ai and the Ai Yaozong in the courtyard.
But sometimes, shameless people really did not care about anything.
"What does it have to do with us whether your family starves to death or not? My second brother is getting married, so it's only right that you give these things!" The Ai Yaozong was still holding the things and shouting. He did not understand the meaning of Gu Dong's words at all.
However, the Ai Yaozong was young, and Old Lady Ai was a shrewd old woman. Gu Dong's words meant that he wanted to cut off all ties with the Ai family. Hehe, wishful thinking. Her family's Ai Ershun had given him a blood transfusion. How could he just think of it like that?
"Gu family's boy, what you said is wrong. What do you mean by 'repay the kindness'? You can't learn from those heartless and unscrupulous people and not recognize your benefactor. "Old Lady Ai wanted to smash someone to death with her saliva.
However, things had already reached this point. Gu Dong was determined to cut off all ties with the Ai family today. "You gave all the rations for the three of us in our family. If that's not enough, then Grandma Ai, what else do you want me to do? As long as you say it, even if I, Gu Dong, have to give up my life, I will repay Brother Ershun's kindness. It's okay if I die, but I can't let my grandfather and wife die because of this matter! "
People always sympathized with the weak. Gu Dong's words successfully made the crowd who were watching the show feel disgusted with the Ai family. They felt that it was necessary for the Gu family and the Ai family to cut off all ties.
Relying on one's advantage to be too aggressive would not give people a good impression.
"Heh!" He was so capable at such a young age! Old Lady Ai glanced at Gu Dong from the corner of her eyes and gritted her teeth so hard that they almost broke. How dare you act like this at such a young age? Little brat, it's best if you die now!
However, he had lived in the village for a lifetime. No matter how shameless he was, he still had to save some face in front of the crowd in the courtyard.
"Young man from the Gu family, look at what you're saying. How can I let you die? My Ershun saved your life with great difficulty. Living well is the right thing to do. However, since you want to repay this kindness, this little thing is not worth a life. "
Old Lady Ai looked at the crowd who were pointing at her in the courtyard. The words that came out of her mouth were not pleasant. "If you really want to cut off this kindness, fine. You also heard that my Ershun is about to get married. What about the nurses in the village hospital? This is the daughter of the head of the reform committee. She's not from some unknown village in the countryside. This is the time when money is needed for a wedding. If you really want to repay my Second Shun's kindness, just take a hundred as a gift. How about it?
Old Lady Ai was indeed shrewd. As soon as she said this, even the leader took a deep breath and gritted his teeth.
What was a hundred yuan? It was a sum of money that a strong laborer could not earn even if he did not eat or drink for a whole year.
She really had the nerve to say this.
"Ah! Old Lady Ai, you're driving our family to death. You heartless old lady! " When Grandpa Gu heard that Old Lady Ai wanted a hundred yuan, his outstretched hand trembled. He pointed at her nose and scolded, "Did a dog eat your conscience? Dongzi was half-dead before. The money for the hospital was borrowed from my family. My family can take out a hundred yuan now! "
"Whether you can or not is your family's business. It has nothing to do with me!" Old Lady Ai's eyelids drooped and she no longer looked at Grandpa Gu.
"It doesn't matter! It has nothing to do with your family. Who does it have to do with? Ershun saved my family's things, but what did your family do? Dongzi hasn't recovered from the hospital yet. In a month, you asked your son to come to my house twice to ask for food and money. Didn't I give you money? Twenty, a whole twenty yuan. You said that Ershun felt dizzy after the blood transfusion. You said that food was not enough and you wanted to buy some meat. I scraped together all the money and begged my grandparents to get it for you. Now you're still asking for money. Do you still have a conscience? "
Grandpa Gu said with tears in his eyes. It was a miserable story. Back then, Fu Jiu helped Gu Dong borrow money from the village to save his life. After that, Grandpa Gu went to each family to ask for money. Almost all the families in the village had experienced Grandpa Gu's pleading, so everyone knew about it.
However, at that time, they thought that Grandpa Gu had lent money to Gu Dong to save his life. They did not expect that he had given the money to the Ai family.
Their money had gone into the pockets of the Ai family. This realization instantly made some of the villagers' faces turn black.
Old Lady Ai's actions successfully pushed everyone in the courtyard to Gu Dong's side.
"This is too much!"
"How greedy!"
"This hundred yuan, if you add a little more, you can build three tiled houses, right?"
"Ai family is really capable of doing anything!"
"Why should we take someone else's money from her family?"
The noise grew louder and louder. Gu Dong looked at all of this without saying a word. Ai Yaozong, who was beside him, could not hold it in anymore.
"What are you all arguing about? What are you all arguing about? My second brother saved him, so it's only right that he gives money! " Ai Yaozong's face was smug and shameless, which made people feel even more disgusted. Not only did it not stop the "rumors" in the courtyard, but it also made everyone feel even more agitated.
There had to be an explanation for this matter. It was about time. Gu Dong made a decision in his heart. He would give them money, but he would definitely not give them that much!
"That's enough! Stop it! " Gu Dong was about to speak when a voice rushed in from the entrance of the courtyard and reprimanded Ai Yaozong.
Ai Ershun, who had gone to the countryside, had returned.
He had been standing behind the crowd at the entrance for a while.
Compared to the other people in the Ai family, Ai Ershun was the main character in this matter. When the onlookers saw that the main character had returned, they quickly retreated to make a path for him.
This person was up to no good!
When Ai Cao saw Ai Ershun appear, he could not stay still any longer. He walked past the crowd and went behind Gu Dong, reaching out to grab Gu Dong's arm.
