Revenge on Gu Xin

Sun Qi was obviously shocked by his topic. After several seconds, he said, "Yes, of course."

Lin Yue was not surprised by her answer, because in the TV series, Sun Qi even tried to trick Gu Qingyu, who had no grudge against her, in order to get revenge on Gu Xin - although she was unsuccessful.

"I think you should have received the news that Gu Xin and Ge Yue are going to hold a wedding."

She did receive news that Gu Xin was going to marry Ge Yue, and her classmates were buzzing about it. They all said that he was lucky to be married to the deputy director's daughter. Several boys who had pursued her in college without success also tagged her and asked if she would go to the wedding.

What does it mean? Even a fool can understand.

She was angry about this for several days.

"Don't tell me you want me to pretend to be your date."

Sun Qi only knew that his name was Gu Lei, and didn't know much about his family background. He just heard the conversation between him and Gu Xin in the recording, and heard some talk about a toad wanting to eat a swan's flesh and cousins being jealous of each other. He thought he was still single.

"How could I possibly do something so cliché? By the way, I'm married and have a child."

"… "

After a long silence, there was a sneer: "Who... is it that spreads such rumors? Isn't it boring?"

In fact, when she heard the recording of the conversation, she still believed it to some extent, because only this could explain why Gu Lei asked her out for a talk, told her about Gu Xin, and proposed to help her climb up in Imoen even at the cost of betraying her sister.

Now that I know he is married and has a child, it doesn't make sense.

"Who? I know who it is, but it has nothing to do with you. All you need to know is that if you want to take revenge on Gu Xin, go to his wedding."

"Okay, what do you want me to do?"

"we'll talk about it then."

All…

Lin Yue hung up the phone.

At this time, he also walked into the gate of Wanziyuan Community, and met several groups of people who looked at him strangely on the way.

Yes, Teacher Gu’s son has a wife and is jealous of his cousin, and his daughter-in-law has an inseparable and complicated relationship with Mr. Shi from Xianyun Pavilion.

The old man and the old lady are usually very idle. They dance square dances and chat about family matters. Good news doesn't travel far, but bad news travels far and wide. It's hard for the Gu family not to be famous.

Lin Yue ignored these people. When passing by the corridor opposite the central fountain, he glanced at the old lady sitting next to the stone table. At her age, she was still applying lipstick like young people. She should have put a layer of powder on her face to cover up the age spots. The most distinctive feature was the bun that gave people the feeling of an intellectual young woman.

Old Mrs. Zhang - the old lady in the TV series whose mental state is sometimes good and sometimes bad, who always likes to imagine herself as a young woman and who wants to see a doctor to cure her infertility and give birth to a beautiful daughter.

"Ah… "

Facing Old Lady Zhang's gaze, Lin Yue curled his lips.

Others may not know, but he knew very well that the rumors about Wanziyuan Community came from this old guy's mouth.

Feng Xiaoqin doesn't have many close friends, and this old lady is one of them. And according to the character setting in the TV series, she is just a person who can't sit still. She keeps meddling in the affairs of the Gu family every day, saying that since Gu Lei died, she takes the Gu family too seriously, and the Gu family just wants her to stay at home and do nothing.

It's so funny. What Gu Shihong and Gu Qingyu can't bear to part with is the little tiger, because they are afraid that she will take the child away. As for her life or death, WHOCARE

Later, because of Feng Qianqian's incident, she moved out with her sister. Did the Gu family say anything

Feng Xiaoqin killed Gu Lei, and the old lady pushed her to the ground. If this happened to the woman, there is no way that the brother-in-law would not beat the man up.

After Gu Lei's death, Feng Xiaoqin flirted with Boss Shi in front of Gu Shihong to prove that she could marry a better man even without Gu Lei.

It's fine to find a man if you can't make it alone, but you live in your late husband's house and do this in front of his father? Can you please have some shame

Back to the issue of Old Lady Zhang spreading gossip, two rumors.

To him, she used the content of jealousy with her cousin to throw dirty water on him. A married man with children hooked up with his cousin's girlfriend. How shameful! How shameless!

To Feng Xiaoqin, Boss Shi was not educated but quite wealthy. He was better off than most but worse off than most. He was also very enthusiastic towards her, which many people had experienced.

In this way, people would think that you, Gu Lei, have no education and no ability, and you are full of scheming. As for Feng Xiaoqin, she chose to marry you over the rich Mr. Shi. The ancestors of the Gu family must have done good deeds for you to be able to marry such a gentle and virtuous wife. As a result, Feng Xiaoqin's reputation stood up, and the Gu family's reputation was destroyed.

What is the purpose of belittling and suppressing with one hand and praising and exalting with the other? It is to make the BMW man obedient and not go out to mess around with other women, otherwise he will not only be ruined, but also lose his current good wife.

"What are you looking at, you heartless man."

Lin Yue had no intention of getting into trouble with a dying old woman, but he couldn't resist the old woman's provocation.

"Mrs. Zhang, I didn't pursue the matter of you spreading gossip and slandering me, but you are so arrogant to be a bad person."

"Who spread gossip about you? Please stop slandering me." Old Lady Zhang said with a mean face: "You did something bad and you are afraid of people talking about it? If you ask me, Qinqin should have married Boss Shi. Look at him, and then look at you. You have nothing. You don't have a house, and you still have to use your sister's money to buy a car."

Wow…

Qinqin was even called.

This old witch is amazing. Not only does she call a woman under 40 sisters when she is almost 70, but she also comes up with such a corny nickname.

"Qinqin? Old Lady Zhang, you know, I am the kind of person who can destroy a person's family if he/she scolds me, but I won't be so harsh on one kind of person. Which kind of person? A dying person like you, how long can you live? You are in the late stage of ovarian cancer. If the treatment is effective, you can live for a year or two. If the treatment is not effective, you may be in a small box next month. Who would bother with a dead person? Right? Oh, don't worry, based on your relationship with Feng Xiaoqin, I will buy a big wreath for you. I have already thought of the elegiac couplets. The first line is, "The gossipy woman on East Street washes clothes in the market." The second line is, "People passing by complain about each other, and they talk endlessly."

"… "

"What? You don't understand? It's terrible to be uneducated."

"what are you doing?"

At this time, an old man rushed out and stood in front of Old Lady Zhang.

Lin Yue looked carefully and found that it was her man Zhang Dingguo.

"You've come just in time. I remember that you worked in the neighborhood office before you retired, right? Then you should understand what this sentence means. How about explaining it to your wife?"

Zhang Dingguo said, "You are disrespectful. Your father and I are friends. How can you talk like that?"

Lin Yue said, "I'm sorry. I have a grandmother and a father above me, and a son below me. I have the elders and the younger ones, but you are the ones who are disrespectful."

Zhang Dingguo was stunned for a moment before he realized that the boy was scolding them for being a family without a son.

"Mr. Zhang, what did he mean by what he said above? Ovarian cancer? What ovarian cancer? Me?" Old Mrs. Zhang was still struggling with the content of the first sentence, because the three words "ovarian cancer" deeply hurt her.

When she was unconscious, she was still thinking about going to the hospital for treatment, hoping that she could get pregnant and give birth to a child. You can imagine how much of a shock Lin Yue's words were to her.

Zhang Dingguo grabbed the excited old lady Zhang's hand and said, "No, no, you didn't. You're fine. Don't listen to his nonsense."

"Nonsense? I'm not the one who lies with my eyes open." Lin Yue sneered repeatedly. When the old witch and Feng Xiaoqin conspired to plot against him by spreading rumors, Zhang Dingguo sat back and watched. Now that he told the truth, he was accused of lying. Some viewers also said that the elder sister-in-law advised her brother to be careful of his sister-in-law, which was meddling in the affairs of other couples. But the couple didn't ask her for money, and the father didn't let her give advice. Why would they be willing to cause trouble for themselves? When it came to the plot where Old Lady Zhang advised Feng Xiaoqin to remarry, everyone shut up again. Sure enough, everyone has double standards. The difference is where their butts are.

"You are almost 70 years old, why don't you just quietly dance your square dance? You have to interfere in other people's family affairs. Calling you a bully is an understatement. Old lady Zhang, you have seen so many doctors in your life and none of them could cure your infertility. Didn't you ask the gods? Didn't any experts tell you that if you do too many bad things, you will have no children or grandchildren?"

As early as when Lin Yue announced that he would send a big wreath to her when she died, a group of onlookers gathered outside the corridor. Recently, more people gathered.

Some people pointed fingers at Lin Yue.

"He is Mr. Gu's son?"

"Yes, that's him."

"Teacher Gu and Old Man Zhang have a good relationship, right? How dare a junior speak like that? How vicious."

"You just came. I've been listening for a while. It seems that the rumors in our neighborhood that he and his cousin were jealous of each other were spread by Old Lady Zhang."

"I remember now. Indeed, when we were doing square dancing last time, Old Lady Zhang held my hand and praised Feng Xiaoqin for her ability, saying that it was not easy for her to raise a child alone."

"Whose job is easy? Is it hard to raise children? Is working outside like playing? I remember a survey that said women speak an average of 8,000 words a day, while men only speak 3,000 words. The decibel level of a woman's speech is equivalent to that of 500 ducks. Netizens who don't know the truth will believe whoever has the loudest voice and talks the most. Only idle people waste time complaining. For workers who are tired like dogs, who doesn't want to have more time to sleep?"

"The biggest regret for Mrs. Zhang is that she can't have children. This hits her right in the nick of time. Look at her face. She looks like she's about to die of anger."

"You may not know yet, but Mrs. Zhang has cancer and is dying."

"… "

Originally, Old Lady Zhang's mental state was sometimes good and sometimes bad. She always thought that she was still a young woman. Apart from fantasizing about having children, she usually spent her time drawing eyebrows and combing hair in front of the mirror and putting on makeup. Now Lin Yue played the role of an honest young man who exposed the emperor's new clothes, which immediately aroused her anger. She rushed towards him like a madman and stretched out her dry hands like chicken claws to scratch his face.

Lin Yue did nothing but move aside. Old Mrs. Zhang had difficulty walking and fell to the ground with a cry.

Zhang Dingguo rushed to help, but the woman underneath him kept crying out in pain, and the old man was so frightened that he dared not move, and shouted at the onlookers to call 120.

Some people continued to watch the excitement, while some familiar faces helped to call an ambulance.

Three hours later, Hongqiao Longbai Police Station.

A female police officer patiently advised Lin Yue: "The old lady is fine. If anything had happened to her, you would be in big trouble. It's for your own good that we ask you to apologize and keep the peace."

"Thank you, but it's not necessary." Lin Yue said, "Why should I apologize? Even if she really died, it's not my fault, okay? Does she have children? No, it's true that she has advanced ovarian cancer. If you do too many bad things, you will have no children. This is what everyone has heard, and there is nothing wrong with it, right? This old thing spread rumors about me everywhere, and I called her a gossip, isn't it right? I didn't slander her, and I didn't insult her. She jumped over and hit me and twisted her waist. What does it have to do with me?"

Hey…

He knows the law quite well.

The policewoman was speechless, thinking that he was just like what his colleagues said, a stubborn and unyielding person.

In today's world, which young people dare to mess with the elderly? Usually, they stay away from the elderly when walking or driving, for fear of being scammed or being blamed. Now the police are helping to mediate, and the old man across the street wants him to apologize and the case will be dropped. This result is already very good, but he refuses to bow his head and admit his mistakes.

She was the third police officer who came to persuade him to bow his head. She thought that since she was a woman, she should be easier to talk to, but she didn't expect it was useless.

"Comrade police, which room is Gu Lei in?"

Gu Shihong's voice was heard in the corridor, and soon, the old man walked in from outside with the sound of footsteps.

"You are..." the policewoman stood up and asked.

"I am Gu Lei's father."

"Oh, old man, you've come at the right time. Please help me persuade your son."

"What's up with him?"

"My colleague should have told you on the phone that the other party only asked him to apologize in exchange for agreeing to drop the case, but... but your son refused to do so. In order to persuade him... we have changed three groups of people. How can he be so stubborn?"

It seems that the female police officer rarely deals with such matters, and she even expressed her own subjective opinions.

Gu Shihong walked up to Lin Yue and said, "Gu Lei, be obedient and go and apologize to your Uncle Zhang."

"Why? That old woman hit me and ended up falling to the ground. She didn't apologize to me and asked me to bow my head to her. If I don't do it, it won't help even if grandma comes."

He simply turned around and looked at the cactus in the flowerpot on the windowsill.

The policewoman kept shaking her head as she watched. In the past, when encountering cases like this, the young people would have wanted to reconcile as quickly as possible and leave, but this guy just refused to give in.

Gu Shihong said: "It's just an apology, what's the big deal? Just think of it as helping the police officers reduce their workload."

Lin Yue said without even turning his head: "Their job is to punish evil and promote good. I was clearly in the right, but they asked me to apologize to the other party. Do you know that this is condoning the old guy to do evil? If there are old people doing this again in the future, I will continue to smooth things over, right? To deal with people like Old Lady Zhang, you need someone who is serious about it."

The two looked at each other, and it was hard to say what to say next after the truth had been hammered down upon them.

"Comrade police, please take me to see Lao Zhang."

"good."

The policewoman glanced at Lin Yue, who was sitting as steady as a mountain, and left with Gu Shihong.

As a result of this incident, Gu Shihong apologized to Zhang Dingguo on behalf of his son Gu Lei, and the case ended in a settlement.

Old Mrs. Zhang just twisted her waist and she would be fine after a few days of rest. As for the fact that she had ovarian cancer, Zhang Dingguo asked an acquaintance to get a fake ultrasound report and said that the second son of the Gu family said that just to irritate her, which was completely false.

Old Mrs. Zhang believed it, and after she recovered, she ran to the community square to dance square dance with those old men and women. She also told everyone that if her old man didn't have a good relationship with Gu Shihong, the second son of the Gu family would have to stay in jail for a while even if he had to kowtow in public, let alone apologize in public.

"Oh, I can't do it anymore. I can't do it anymore."

Feng Xiaoqin followed the rhythm of Old Lady Zhang and gave up after less than five minutes: "Look, my palms are sweating."

"That means you should practice less and dance more, and you will get used to it."

Old Mrs. Zhang took her hand and sat down on the bench next to her.

Feng Xiaoqin said: "Grandma, I'm sorry about what happened a few days ago. I didn't expect to cause you trouble..."

"What grandma? Didn't I tell you to call me sister? You've made me sound old." Old Mrs. Zhang patted her hands and said, "I'm fine, don't worry."

"Zhang... Sister Zhang." Feng Xiaoqin called out "Sister" despite the embarrassment.

"That's right." Old Lady Zhang said, "If my old man didn't want to make a big deal out of it, I would definitely help you deal with him. Alas, why did you choose such a man back then? He's so bad, he can't be compared to Boss Shi. If it were me, I would never marry such a man even if I died."

Feng Xiaoqin sighed: "The child is already so old, what can we do? Marry a chicken and follow the chicken, marry a dog and follow the dog."

"Sister, now is not the same as before. If you can't live together, just divorce. Look at you, you are beautiful and virtuous. Are you afraid that you can't find a better man?" Old Mrs. Zhang said in the tone of an experienced person: "Look at my old man, he is so good to me. I haven't been pregnant for so long, but he has never blamed me."

As she said this, her index finger was about to curl up.

"Oh, Uncle Zhang is so nice to you."

"So, men are afraid of choosing the wrong career, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man. We women must keep our eyes open when looking for a husband."

Just as Mrs. Zhang was shaking her head, proudly showing off how much her husband doted on her, two uniformed bailiffs approached them with bags.

"Who among you is Zhang Ting?"

Old Mrs. Zhang turned around and looked at the two bailiffs in surprise: "It's me, what's wrong?"

"Someone has sued you for defamation. This is a court summons. Please appear in court in three days for the trial."

The bailiff in front handed a subpoena with the court seal to Old Lady Zhang.
