Chapter 365 - s: Shameless is Invincible

"Stop talking nonsense here. Xuefei is my own grandson. How could I bear to lay a hand on him? What nonsense! It must be fake." Old Mrs. Zhao naturally wouldn’t admit to what people in the village were gossiping about.

"You just want to instigate JianShe into splitting the family, don’t you?" Old Mrs. Zhao slapped her thigh and began crying out, "I knew you weren’t a good thing, always scheming to turn my own son against his old mother."

"Zhao JianShe, you’re such a coward, forgetting your mother after getting married."

"Let me tell you..." Gu Chunmei sneered, "Everyone in the village can see clearly. What’s my sister’s character like? And what’s the character of your second daughter-in-law? Maybe you’re blind and deaf, but the villagers are perfectly aware."

"Go ahead, cry all you want. Once you’re done, we’ll properly count the grievances my sister has suffered in your Zhao Family over the years." Gu Chunmei said, supporting the trembling Gu Chunxia onto their cart, "Cry, we can all hear you."

"This is way more entertaining than watching a play."

"Alright, stop disgracing yourself here," the patriarch of the Zhao family said with a scowl, looking disdainfully at Old Mrs. Zhao on the ground.

"Beating up a good woman into this state; she’s not cowardly to confront you like this."

"Second Granduncle, I want to split the family." Zhao JianShe, who had been silent, spoke up, "Completely sever ties."

Completely sever ties? That would mean having no relation whatsoever with Old Mrs. Zhao’s family.

This... Second Granduncle hesitated a bit.

He was well aware of the situation in Zhao JianShe’s family. Without the couple, the rest might have starved long ago, yet these people just didn’t appreciate it.

"JianShe, why don’t you... think it over?" Second Granduncle suggested.

"If I think it over any more, my entire family might not survive." Even the honest Zhao JianShe could speak sarcastically.

"What? Zhao JianShe, I’m telling you, there’s no way you’re splitting the family." Mrs. Zhao yelled.

"Big Brother, aren’t you trying to claim our mother’s life? When our father passed away, you promised him you’d take good care of our mother and us." Zhao Jianfeng said.

"Truly shameless people are invincible," Gu Chunmei mocked, "Today, I’ve witnessed the extent of Zhao Family’s shamelessness."

"Tell me, Zhao Jianfeng, are you still wearing open-crotch pants? Or are you still breastfeeding?"

"Your brother raised you and even got you married. You already have two kids, and still expect your brother to support you. Where’s your shame?"

"Or is everyone from Zhao Village like this?"

"Young lady, don’t talk nonsense. The young men of Zhao Village aren’t as shameless as you’ve described." An elderly lady piped up.

If this news spread, who would dare marry their daughters to Zhao Village in the future?

As for today’s matter, she thought if not handled well, the reputation of Zhao Village would be ruined by this family’s actions.

"Gu Chunmei, stop talking nonsense." Zhao Jianfeng pointed at Gu Chunmei and cursed, "This is between my brother and me, it has nothing to do with you."

"What? Do you Gu Family members plan to come to Zhao Village and beat people up?" Zhao Jianfeng suddenly remembered the losses he had suffered at Gu Chunmei’s hands in the past, and spoke ferociously, "This is Zhao Village, not your Nanshui Village."

"Hitting you would only dirty my hands," Gu Chunmei said.

On their way, her niece had repeatedly reminded them not to resort to violence, otherwise having a valid reason would turn into having none, "We are all civilized people, not like some animals who can even lay hands on their own family."

"Cut the crap, hurry up and split the family."
