270: Chapter 270: Donât Be Impulsive (Part 4)_1 270: Chapter 270: Donât Be Impulsive (Part 4)_1 âIâll kill these scoundrels.â Gu Yaoâs hands were trembling with anger, veins popping out, as he grabbed the firewood knife next to him.
He had reached the limits of his patience.
Yang Baihe jumped up in a panic and ran out of the room, hiding behind her mother, thinking to herself that this Second Young Master Gu was terrifying.
Feng Caie was also startled and hurried outside, but she stumbled and fell flat on her face, sprawling out on the ground.
Yet, she dared not say a word and quickly crawled behind Yang Anshi for cover.
By this time, Yang Anshiâs loud voice had already carried far and wide, drawing in spectators even from a distance.
Coupled with some busybodies spreading the word through the village, it wasnât long before almost half the villagers had gathered to watch.
Over the past half month, the villagers had developed an addiction to watching the drama, finding it quite unremarkable.
If a day passed without incident, they would probably feel out of sorts.
However, seeing Old Lady Yang creating a fuss at the Gu house was a novelty for them.
Seeing a crowd had gathered, Yang Anshiâs wailing grew even louder.
âNo way.â Feng Family held back Gu Yao, who was about to chase after those outside, âYou canât be impulsiveâŠâ
âBut theyâŠâ
âAyao, you canât be impulsive.â Gu Qingheng had also calmed down by now, âIn these situations, the more you argue, the worse it gets.
The best solution is to ignore themâŠâ
Helpless, Gu Yao begrudgingly put away the treasure sword.
The spectators at first didnât know what was going on, but through Yang Anshiâs operatic cries, they gradually came to grasp the whole story, and their opinions started to diverge.
Those who knew the Yang Family well and were upstanding, felt indignant.
That old lady was up to her tricks again; she never seemed to rest, thinking only of squeezing the silver out of Yang Daniâs hands.
They all felt sorry for Dani.
Others, narrow-minded, regretted not having sent their own daughters to sneak into the Linzi with the Second Young Master Gu.
If they could split a few tens of taels of silver, they thought not just a daughter, but even a wife would have been worth sending.
Most people were simply there for the entertainment, after all, having something to watch in their free time was enjoyable enough.
Of course, a few with sinister intentions, harboring grudges against Yang Ruxin, started to stir up trouble, seizing this rare opportunity, like Lin Yueâe and Tian Jinhua.
âWow, itâs no wonder they want to split the household.
They were involved with the Gu Family all along, pretending to be innocent before, shameless!
Thatâs out of sheer embarrassmentâŠâ Lin Yueâe sneered and winked among the crowd, âNow theyâre at the back of the village, with no adults at home, itâs become even more convenient for themâŠâ
âExactly, if you dare do it, you canât stop others from talking, right?â Tian Jinhua eagerly nodded in agreement, âIf they were truly innocent, how could her own grandmother come over to propose a marriage?â
âMy lord, should we take action?â Outside the crowd, two people had arrived at some point, and a guard was asking his master.
âItâs not our turn yet,â Qi Jingyi shook his head, âDonât let his disability fool you, heâs not useless.â He stroked his chin, somewhat surprised that the girl the cripple had his eye on ended up pinned to Gu Yaoâs frame, wondering what the cripple was feeling right now.
Weng Ji immediately fell silent.
Alright, whatever the master says goes, but he still reminded, âMy lord, donât take too much pleasure in othersâ misfortune.â
