“I… she’s my mother. As her daughter-in-law, it’s your duty to be filial to her! Mother is so old, you can’t possibly expect her to do the housework? It wasn’t easy for her to raise me. Although I did not help you in this respect, I’ve otherwise always been good to you! Yunshuang, don’t you understand me after so many years?”
Gu Yunshuang smiled. She was not sad. She just rejoiced that she had finally left this household.
She had no desire to talk to him anymore. Gu Yunshuang held Gu Fangting’s hand and turned to leave.
Li Dahai immediately advanced and caught hold of her. “Yunshuang, don’t go. Come back with me and apologize to Mother. She will certainly forgive you…”
Gu Yunshuang turned, with her hand raised. She mercilessly slapped Li Dahai’s face.
Piak!
It was so loud!
Li Dahai was shocked. He held his face and looked at Gu Yunshuang in disbelief.
“Yun… Yunshuang, you… you hit me?”
Gu Yunshuang curled her lip. “Although I beat you, I was good to you!”
When he heard that, Li Dahai was unable to respond for a long time.
Gu Yunshuang laughed coldly. Then she tugged at Gu Fangting and left.
Li Dahai panicked when he saw Gu Yunshuang leave. It was as if he was losing something. He instinctively grabbed Gu Yunshuang. “Yunshuang, don’t… I… come home with me! We can discuss it at home. As a woman raising her child in her natal home, you will be despised. Come back with me. I’ll bring you to apologize to Mother and she will certainly allow you to return. Yunshuang…”
“Fourth Brother, Little Feng, Li Dahai is here. Fourth Brother…”
Gu Yunshuang did not want to listen to his nonsense. Since she could not get rid of him, she just shouted for Gu Yunshen and Gu Jinfeng.
Gu Yunshen and Gu Jinfeng were both at home. They rushed out when they heard the shouts from beyond the courtyard. How dare that bastard come here!
Gu Jinfeng had been trained outside the village. But he was in the house whereas Gu Yunshen was working by the well in the courtyard, so the latter arrived first.
They reached Gu Yunshuang almost simultaneously.
Gu Yunshen rushed towards her. When he reached Gu Yunshuang, he pulled her behind himself, then in the same move, kicked Li Dahai in the stomach.
“Let go!”
Gu Yunshen roared.
Gu Jinfeng followed at his heels. When he saw his youngest uncle kick Li Dahai, he raised his eyebrows.
He had arrived at the same time as Youngest Uncle, but Li Dahai was his elder, so he had not acted so quickly or so decisively. He had not expected Youngest Uncle to act so resolutely. And his kick…
Li Dahai was a peasant, and was tall and well-built. He was almost 1.8 meters tall and was a very large man.
His youngest uncle was about a head shorter than Li Dahai. But in the village, his youngest uncle was already considered tall. However, he was slender and as a physician, he looked gentle and scholarly.
But one kick from his youngest uncle forced Li Dahai to double over. He retreated several steps before he fell to the ground.
Such force…
Li Dahai held his stomach. He turned pale with agony and was unable to get up for a long time.
Gu Yunshen looked at him contemptuously. “Get lost!”
With that, he pulled Gu Yunshuang back to the house.
Li Dahai said with difficulty, “No… Yunshuang… Ting… Tingting, come back with Father. The Li family is your real family! Tingting… don’t you want your parents to be together?”
Gu Fangting paused and turned to look at Li Dahai. She said, “Father, I’ve already broken off my ties with you. From now on, I am Gu Fangting and a member of the Gu family. It was you who threw us out of the house.”
Li Dahai had not expected that his daughter had also become like that. Did they not want to go home?
