Chapter 1408: Mrs. Cui Strikes

Chapter 1408: Chapter 1408: Mrs. Cui Strikes

Hahaha, who would’ve thought, this Mrs. Cui, who seems so delicate, could say such anger-inducing words. Ms. Lin Su’s face was twisted in rage.

Ms. Lin Su nearly rushed over to hit Mrs. Cui, but was held back by her daughter and could only suppress her anger and say, "Mrs. Cui, I’ll ask you once more, what do you think of the marriage between our two families?"

Don’t be shameless when given face.

Mrs. Cui replied indifferently, "Not much, the fortune teller said that my Good Brother An shouldn’t marry a Lin family girl."

"Mother~" Lin Yueyun cried out in anger and began to hate Mrs. Cui.

That damn country woman, how could she not give her face? Lin Yueyun thought it was her blessing to be able to be her daughter-in-law, yet she dared refuse!

Ms. Lin Su trembled with anger, pointing at Mrs. Cui and said, "Say it again!"

Ms. Chu was quickly enraged and slammed the table, standing beside Mrs. Cui and glaring at Ms. Lin Su, "Say it a hundred times, and it’s still no marriage. It’s utterly ridiculous; I’ve heard of people seeking to marry someone’s daughter, but never seen someone forcing their daughter upon someone else’s son. Is your daughter unable to find a husband? Why are you forcing someone to marry her?"

The crowd burst out laughing.

One woman, enjoying the spectacle too much, said, "This is the first time I’ve seen someone desperately seeking a marriage. Is there something wrong with the girl? Otherwise, why rush to get married?"

Lin Yueyun turned pale upon hearing this, afraid to speak.

Ms. Lin Su, like a cat with its tail stepped on, immediately exploded, shouting at that woman, "You country slut, what nonsense are you talking? My Sister Yun is pure and innocent. It’s the Gu Family girl who’s damaged goods!"

Everyone was shocked, looking at Ms. Lin Su as if she were a madman.

Third Grandma nearly fainted with anger, pointing at Ms. Lin Su, "What do you mean, you shrew?"

Ms. Lin Su spoke impulsively and was a bit scared now, but she looked down on country people and hated Mrs. Cui for being ungrateful, so she retorted, "Isn’t it? Your Gu Family came fleeing from famine, and I’ve heard that during famine, people send their daughters to sell themselves just for a mouthful of food, who knows how many men they have..."

Slap slap slap!

Before Ms. Lin Su could finish, Mrs. Cui, with reddened eyes, rushed over, grabbed her hair, and slapped her face wildly. "Shrew, uncultured thing, I’ll teach you not to spout nonsense and slander innocent people! Today I’ll teach you a lesson on behalf of your parents!"

Mrs. Cui’s children were her life; she wouldn’t tolerate anyone defaming her two daughters.

"Wah wah wah, hitting, the Gu Family’s shrew is hitting!" Ms. Lin Su cried and wanted to fight back, but was held down by the charging Ms. Chu.

Ms. Chu slapped her face wildly, in an instant turning Ms. Lin Su into someone unrecognizable even by her own mother.

After the beating, she spat a few times, saying, "Nonsense spreading, deliberately ruining people’s reputation—you wretch! The Gu Family girls are pure; every married girl has a match made in happiness, you won’t talk trash!"

Mrs. Chen, being rough-spoken, was despised by Third Grandma and wasn’t able to eat here today, but was in the next room where the commotion was too intense. Being such a gossip, she couldn’t resist coming to watch.

Unexpectedly she saw her own family’s uproar, feeling furious, she immediately rolled up her sleeves and rushed over—not to hit Ms. Lin Su, but to hit Lin Yueyun.

Slap slap slap, she slapped Lin Yueyun’s face wildly while shouting, "Everyone come look, this Lin Yueyun is a fake girl with a damaged body. Not only is her body damaged, she’s pregnant, that’s why she’s rushing to marry."

Slap slap slap!

Another round of slaps.

Afterwards she continued, "Do you think our Gu Family is stupid? Our Good Brother An is Jianghuai’s second Small Three-Yuan Scholar, the future top scorer, will he marry you, a pregnant prostitute?!"

The guests present: "..."

They were all dumbfounded.

This, this, this, it makes sense!

"Maybe her body really is damaged, otherwise why force herself to marry?"

"Yeah yeah yeah, if she’s pure and innocent, such things wouldn’t happen. She must be pregnant and eagerly seeking a fool to be the father."

"Wah wah wah, no, no, I’m innocent." Lin Yueyun was scared beyond words, immediately crying out that she was innocent.

"Ha, you say you’re innocent, and you’re innocent? Want everyone to believe it, get a doctor to verify it!" Mrs. Chen, being unreasonable, wasn’t about to let the Lin Family off after bullying the Gu Family.

Mrs. Chen looked towards the door and happened to see Aunt Miao, who hurried over upon hearing the news, immediately shouting, "Aunt Miao, quickly go to town and fetch Doctor Wu, tell him someone here has disturbed pregnancy, he’s needed to save the child!"

"Aye, this old servant will go!" Aunt Miao, having heard the situation, was furious. Someone dared to defame the Gu Family girl—truly venomous—and disregarded Shang Family’s face, immediately instructing Ah Jiang to drive the cart to town to invite Doctor Wu.

The Young Master had instructed her before going to the Northwest, to protect the Gu Family in any situation, regardless of other families.

In the front yard, Village Chief Shang and others, hearing what happened here, rushed over, found the room in chaos, and shouted angrily, "Stop it, separate them, no more fighting."

With two resounding slaps, Mrs. Chen rose before landing two more blows on Lin Yueyun.

Mrs. Cui and Ms. Chu had already let go of Ms. Lin Su and stood aside.

Lin Guangtong rushed over, seeing his mother and sister beaten into swollen heads, enraged, asking, "Mother, Sister Yun, who hit you? Tell me quickly, I’ll butcher them!"

Ms. Lin Su, nearly beaten to death, spat blood while saying, "It, it was them... wah wah wah, Brother Tong, you must avenge mother, they ganged up on me."

Upon hearing this, Lin Guangtong couldn’t take it, rising to charge at Mrs. Cui, "You lowly woman, dare hit my mother, I’ll kill you!"

With a loud bang, Gu Jin’an rushed over, kicked Lin Guangtong down, standing in front of Mrs. Cui, glaring at him fiercely, "Touch my mother, and I’ll take your life!"

He had already heard from Zezi about the situation and was furious. The Lin Family had schemed for his marriage, tarnished his two sisters’ reputation, and dared try to hit his mother. If he still showed them courtesy, he might as well die.

"Good Brother An, don’t be angry, mother is fine." Mrs. Cui worried that Gu Jin’an might act rashly and harm his career, quickly tugged his hand to stop him from fighting.

Gu Jin’an turned around with a smile to Mrs. Cui, "Don’t worry, mother, it’s okay. Your son knows what he’s doing."

"Mother, are you okay!" Brother Cheng also ran over, gave Lin Guangtong’s abdomen a stomp as he passed, causing him to scream painfully, "Ah! You little brat!"

Then he was kicked again by the arriving Gu Dashan.

All those present: "..."

Quite a precise stomp; it’s exactly where his son had stomped earlier.

"Min Niang, are you alright?" Gu Dashan asked worriedly, too troubled by the presence of outsiders, tightly holding onto Mrs. Cui’s hand, standing beside her to protect her.
