Gu Jin glanced at the little kid beside her and said, "I don’t really care about the money. I just want people to know that if soone tries to bully little An again, they should consider whether they can afford to pay up first.
And as for Widow Chen and her kids, it’s about ti they learn a lesson too. Little An has suffered so much, but their kids are still unscathed."
Hearing this, how could Chen Hong not understand?
She patted her chest and promised, "Leave it to , it’s no big deal. I’ve never liked that Widow Chen anyway. That bitch was even trying to cling onto your uncle last ti with her sluttiness. Just watch deal with her today!"
Gu Decang, standing to the side, quickly spoke up in rebuttal, "What nonsense are you talking about? Didn’t I avoid her?"
"You wish she was all over you!" Chen Hong glared at him. Gu Decang knew continuing this would only lead to trouble, and he hated trouble the most.
He turned around and went into the room, ignoring the won’s intricate debates.
Gu Jin smiled and thanked her, "Thank you so much, aunt. Whatever cos from this IOU is yours."
"Jin girl, I feel bad about this. It’s your money, after all..."
"This is what you deserve, aunt." Gu Jin finished and led the child back into the house.
Standing there, Chen Hong stared at the IOU in her hand.
She didn’t know many characters, but she could recognize the numbers five and ten. The IOU in her hand was for one hundred fifty yuan, and her heart began to race.
...
Back in the room, Gu Jin took off her coat and retrieved a tal tin labeled ’Malt Extract’ from her trunk.
Seeing the Malt Extract at the departnt store, her first thought was the malnourished kid at ho, and she was now very glad she bought it.
"Little An, sit for a bit. I’ll head to the kitchen to see what I can whip up."
She had taken the doctor’s words to heart and decided to cook sothing nutritious for the child.
Seeing her about to leave, An Mingji quickly reached out to hold Gu Jin’s hand.
"Sister Jin, I want to go with you."
Seeing the unease in the kid’s eyes, Gu Jin took his hand, "Alright, let’s go together."
Hand in hand, they went to the kitchen. Gu Jin lit a candle, letting the child sit on a stool by the side as she checked the existing ingredients in the kitchen.
There was wild boar at, rice, wild vegetables, so remaining flour, a few miscellaneous grain buns, and sweet potatoes.
Looking at these ingredients, Gu Jin filled a bowl with flour and took a few eggs, deciding to make an egg pancake for the child.
"Ah! Murder! The Gu Family has killed soone!"
A heart-wrenching cry ca from outside, and it was the familiar voice of Widow Chen.
All Chen Hong did was walk out with a stick, and it scared the hell out of her.
Inwardly gloating, Chen Hong’s face was even more fierce than Widow Chen’s, "What the hell are you screaming about, you slutty fox! You can’t move a step when you see a man, can you? Don’t think that just because everyone knows what’s going on, you’re in the right!
Your kid beat little An until he was covered in bruises; he’s lucky to be alive! Just because your kid is precious doesn’t an other people’s kids are worthless! Today, don’t think this is over because it’s not for us either. Don’t you dare think our Gu Family is easy to bully!
You either pay up the dical expenses for the trip to the county. Little Jin spent over a hundred bucks, and every family owes fifty, you can’t shalessly deny it. Or take your precious brat and wait until I find the village head tomorrow to report this justice."
