The person who emerged was Jin Yuexiang, Liangzi’s mother.

Yesterday morning, they had to compensate with five taels of silver, and Huliang was beaten all over, feeling frustrated and resentful.

Especially Jin Yuexiang, she always cherished her youngest son the most, pampering him like a precious treasure.

Even if he usually stole and caused trouble, whenever someone from the village came to demand justice, she could argue back vehemently, leaving the other party not only uncompensated but also thoroughly scolded.

For this reason, Jin Yuexiang became increasingly proud and valiant in her battles.

But little did she know that yesterday, she fell flat on her face at the hands of a young girl. She couldn’t scold or beat her, and had to compensate for so much silver.

The more she thought about it, the more it burned in her heart, and the more she couldn’t sleep.

But she didn’t dare to find Gu Yundong. After much consideration, she thought of Mrs. Yang.

She was a fool. Even if she was bullied, she might not file a complaint. She could even make Mrs. Yang compensate her with those five taels of silver. Hmm, her idea was exactly the same as the one with Fang before.

So she came early in the morning today, hiding behind the straw pile, waiting for Mrs. Yang to come out alone.

Who knew Mrs. Yang didn’t show up, but Feng Daneng did, and she even heard such a sensational and inspiring piece of news.

The Peng family, haha, that was the Peng family.

Gu Yundong offended the Peng family, not acting submissive, and even went to cause trouble. This time she was definitely doomed.

Jin Yuexiang’s excited face turned red. She didn’t care about Mrs. Yang anymore, she just walked back, telling everyone she met along the way that the Gu family was in big trouble.

“You don’t know, Gu Yundong has such courage. She actually said the Peng family stole her stuff and now she’s going to settle the score with them.”

“Do you think she’s crazy? The Peng family is a big deal. With such a big family business, would they care about her little thing? You just wait, the Gu family is finished.”

“So what if she knows the county magistrate? I think even if she does, the county magistrate is not close to her.”

Otherwise, why would the Gu family settle in our Yongfu Village? If the county magistrate was really close to them, he should have settled them in the city or that rich and prosperous Daguicun near the county town.

Jin Yuexiang had little knowledge, she didn’t know that settling down was not so easy. Nowadays, with the new emperor ascending the throne, he paid great attention to the affairs of refugees. Not to mention the county magistrate, even if it was a relative of the prefect, at this critical moment, rules had to be followed.

But Jin Yuexiang’s words still stirred up a sensation in the village.

Everyone gathered together to whisper, finding it unbelievable that Gu Yundong dared to go to the Peng family to cause trouble.

“I guess the Gu family is really finished this time.”

“And the house won’t be built either, it’s such a pity. I heard that the house was built beautifully. After the beams were erected, I still wanted to go and see.”

There were also some malicious gossip.

“Serves her right. Look at her arrogance yesterday. So young and already so vicious. She was difficult to marry in the first place. Now that she’s offended the Peng family, who dares to associate with her family?”

Jin Yuexiang was pleased to hear this. She ran around the entire village and then returned home, cheerfully telling her son about the news.

Huliang still had bruises on his face. When he heard about this, his eyes lit up. He had been lying on the bed listlessly, but in an instant, he jumped up, put on his clothes, and rushed out of the door.

Jin Yuexiang hurriedly called out to him, “What are you going to do?”

“Hahaha, I’m going for revenge.”
