My parents are both dead, I rely on fishing and farming to support my younger siblings

Old Mrs. Gu slapped her thigh and started crying at Old Man Gu.

Old man Gu at the side finally made a move and said in a deep voice, "Then am I not your grandfather?"

Gu Lili snorted coldly, "My father and this old lady have no blood relationship at all. We can understand why she treats us like this, but my father is your biological son. You actually let your second wife occupy my father's pension and starve my mother to death. How can someone like you be worthy of being our grandfather?"

The reason why Old Man Gu is so partial is because Gu Shan's mother died early, and he later married Old Lady Gu.

He was influenced by others day and night, so he hardly cared about Gu Shan's room.

"I think you deserve to be punished. It's a good coincidence that your mother died, so today let me, your grandfather, discipline you!" Old Man Gu said angrily, his beard blowing in anger.

Old Man Gu and Old Lady Gu pressed Gu Lili step by step, wanting to teach her a lesson.

Gu Erniu struggled hard to break free from Gu Chuan's restraints and wanted to help Gu Lili, but he was still pinned under him and could not move.

Seeing that the two men were approaching, Gu Lili had nowhere to retreat and decided to fight them head-on.

"Old Man Gu, what are you doing? Do you want to kill someone?" A cold voice came from outside the house.

Everyone looked outside the house and Li Baozhu walked in with his three sons and his wife.

"Grandpa, grandma, uncle." Gu Huanhuan and Gu Sigou ran towards them crying.

Seeing the person coming, Gu Chuan quickly stood up and no longer dared to press Gu Erniu.

Gu Erniu took advantage of the opportunity to stand up and punched Gu Chuan hard in the eye, then ran towards his three uncles.

"You're looking for death, you little bastard!" Gu Chuan felt pain and ran after Gu Erniu, but when he saw the three Li brothers staring at him, he stopped and didn't dare to go forward.

Gu Lili couldn't help but wet her eyes again, and looked at her grandparents and uncle with red eyes.

Old Mrs. Li, looking at Gu Lili, who looked 70% like her own daughter, could not help but burst into tears. She rushed over, hugged Gu Lili in her arms and cried bitterly.

"My poor child, you have suffered."

Old Mrs. Li heard at the market today that the Wang family wanted to buy a girl who had starved to death in Guzhuang for a ghost marriage, so Granny Li went over to listen out of curiosity.

This was shocking to hear. The gossipers said that her father died on the battlefield and her mother just died in the winter. So wouldn't that be her granddaughter?

Old Mrs. Li didn't even bother to sell her food. She hurried back home and took her old man and three sons with her to Guzhuang.

Lijia Village is more than 20 miles away from Guzhuang. After rushing, we finally arrived.

But as soon as he entered the room, before he could be surprised to see Gu Lili standing alive, he saw four children being bullied by this group of heartless people, and he was immediately heartbroken.

Gu Lili and her grandmother hugged each other and cried together, while the three children huddled behind the three Li brothers and sobbed.

"I wonder if there is anything that has brought my in-laws here today?" Old Man Gu took the lead in breaking the deadlock.

It would have been fine if he didn't speak, but as soon as he started talking, Old Mrs. Li let go of Gu Lili, jumped up, pointed at Old Man Gu and cursed.

"You are such a heartless person. My daughter was bullied to death by you after she married into your family. Do you want to kill her children too?"

The Li family had no idea that Li Xihua had starved to death, and they had no idea that the old couple of the Gu family had taken away all of Gu Shan’s pension.

He just thought that his daughter died slowly because she couldn't bear the blow of her husband's death.

However, she always knew that the stepmother, the old lady of the Gu family, was not easy to get along with.

Li Xihua was strong-willed and never complained to her parents. She always talked about the good things.

Before leaving, he also told his four children not to reveal this matter to the Li family, for fear of adding to their sadness.

In addition, the Li family had no relatives in Guzhuang, so they didn’t know about these things.

Old man Gu felt so embarrassed for a moment that he couldn't utter a word for a long time.

On the other hand, Mrs. Gu on the side did not care. "What do you mean we bullied your daughter to death? It was clearly your daughter who gave us all of Gu Shan's pension. We did not force her!"

"What did you say! Say it again!" Old Mrs. Li exclaimed, and the Li family members beside her also widened their eyes.

Before Old Man Gu could stop her, Old Lady Gu rolled her eyes at Old Lady Li and repeated it again.

"Snapped!"

A loud slap echoed throughout the hut.

"I was wondering why my daughter died out of nowhere. You kicked the children out and took away the pension. You really have no conscience!"

At that time, Li Xihua told Old Mrs. Li that giving half of the pension to the old couple would be considered as Gu Shanquan's filial piety, which is also human nature.

Although they were only allocated one acre of wasteland, the silver they had was enough for them to buy a few more acres of land and still have some money left over.

So, Mrs. Li didn't say anything at that time.

After hearing what Old Lady Gu said, Gu Lili's three uncles' eyes turned red and they grabbed Gu Chuan and started beating him.

Old Mrs. Li also pinned Old Mrs. Gu down, and Old Man Li punched Old Man Gu in the face.

Gu Lili took the opportunity to grab Second Aunt Gu's hair and beat her.

The room suddenly became chaotic.

The crying and shouting attracted all the neighbors.

Looking at the second branch of the Gu family being beaten, the villagers secretly rejoiced.

The second branch of the Gu family should have been beaten up long ago.

In the end, the villagers were afraid that someone would die, so they gave the order and asked the men in the village to separate the people.

Old Mrs. Gu and Second Aunt Gu were beaten so badly that they sat on the ground with their hair disheveled and howling like ghosts.

Old Man Gu and Gu Chuan also had bruised faces and noses.

"Village head, you have to stand up for our family. People from Lijia Village came to Guzhuang to kill people!" Old Mrs. Gu cried with tears and snot.

"Alright! What are you howling for? Would someone hit you for no reason? It's just that you are too ruthless in your daily life!" Gu Lizheng shouted.

Everyone in the village knew that the second branch of the Gu family had taken away Gu Shan's pension, but when Gu Lizheng came to Li Xihua to make the decision for them, he was rejected by Li Xihua.

The parties involved did not say a word, and as an outsider, even as the head of the village, it was not appropriate for me to interfere in the matter.

Old Mrs. Gu was so choked that she dared not say a word, because out of the corner of her eye she saw Old Mrs. Li looking at her with bloodshot eyes.

She was afraid that in the next second, Old Lady Li would rush up and beat her up again.

The head of the village cleared his throat and said, "I have also heard about what happened today. Old man Gu, you have lived for most of your life, but you are still able to do such a thing. Aren't you afraid of being criticized?"

Old man Gu was feeling a little ashamed at this moment. Not only was he beaten, but at his old age he was also scolded in front of so many people.

As for what the head of the village said about selling Gu Lili, he thought it was natural.
