The Second Sister of a Farmer's Family's Path to Imperial Destiny

"Unfilial son?" Guo Ruo suppressed his anger and looked at the fat boy and said, "How filial are you? I want to hear it."

The aunts outside the door looked at Guo Ruo and found him so strong, feeling a little bit unbelievable. Was this still the Guo Ruo they had always known?

The several sturdy women behind him also looked at Guo Ruo in surprise, but after a moment, the hands holding the brooms became more powerful and they stared at the people in front of them with fierce eyes.

"When your parents left, didn't we get some more things for you?" Guo Bogong said.

"Puchi, how long can we eat that little bit of food? We can't even live a good winter, right? Not to mention that shabby house! If Xin'er hadn't suddenly come to her senses and let us live a good life, I'm afraid our corpses would have been cold by now." Guo Ruo said with sarcasm, as if he had heard something funny.

"No matter what, we have helped you. Now you don't even give us a job in the village workshop. You don't help your own family, but instead strongly support outsiders. Do you want to disrupt the order of Guojia Village?"

Guo Ruo looked at the gray-haired Guo Bogong in front of him and felt that he was just sitting at home doing nothing, and a big pot was being poured on his house. He said, "Neither Li Zheng nor the village chief said anything about this matter, but you are actually making comments. Do you want to be the village chief?"

"Besides, we chose Uncle Liu's family because they are indeed talented and have good character. Tell me, what do you have?"

Guo Bogong was so angry that he was out of breath, and the boy hurried forward to help him calm down.

The fatter aunt pointed directly at Guo Ruo's nose and said, "How do you talk to your uncle? He is your elder after all! Don't you know how to be filial? You have no conscience at all. In the future, all your money will be scattered all over the place!"

"Elder? What kind of elder is he? After the four of us separated, he never came to see us once. I even went to ask you for some rice, but the door was not opened. If it weren't for Xin'er's ability, we would have starved to death!"

When Guo Bogong heard this, he was so angry that he fainted on the ground.

The boy rested his hand on Guo Bogong's head and shouted, "Grandpa fainted! Hurry up and send him to the hospital. It's all Guo Ruo's fault. You made Grandpa angry. You will suffer retribution in the future!"

Several men and women behind him hurriedly carried Guo Bogong onto the back of the tallest and strongest man, and rushed out. When he came, he noticed that there was a clinic not far away.

Guo Ruo glanced at the woman behind him and motioned her to follow him. If there was anything important or she needed money, she could help pay for it.

Guo Ruo closed the door and went back into the house. As soon as he sat down, his hands and feet couldn't stop shaking and his lips turned pale.

"You are so awesome!" A woman put down her broom and looked at Guo Ruo with admiration.

"My hands are shaking now. This is my first time doing something like this. I guess I did well, right?" Guo Ruo exhaled deeply.

The woman squatted down, helped Guo Ruo relax her arms, and said, "Not only good, but also excellent! Should we go to the hot pot restaurant to tell Miss Guo Xin about this?"

Guo Ruo nodded. Although she sent these people away this time, she didn't know if there would be a lot of messy things in the future.

……

"That family is the new family that moved in. The elders in the family came to make trouble just now. It is said that they did not arrange work for the elders and gave it to outsiders. Then the elders were so angry that they fainted."

"Of course I am. If I had a granddaughter like this, I would be so angry that I would die. The good jobs should be left to my family. How unfilial!"

"You should stay away from this family in the future. Generally speaking, unfilial people are not good people!"

"...

The grandmother who was familiar with Guo Xin was listening nearby and wanted to interrupt to speak in defense of Guo Xin's family, but after hearing so much chatter, she just sighed and said nothing.

……

In Yuanlin Academy, Guo Zhi was inviting her classmates to the cafeteria to eat together.

As soon as she entered the cafeteria, she saw people around her pointing and talking about her. Guo Zhi was a little confused, so she asked, "Is there anything wrong with my clothes?"

The classmate looked him up and down and said, "No, it's quite normal."

"Then why are you all staring at us?"

The classmate shook her head, she was also very puzzled.

Guo Zhi, with a puzzled look on her face, didn't care about anything else and went straight to her aunt to get food. When she was about to find a table to sit down with a full bowl of rice, she saw a girl looking at her with contempt.

Unable to bear this anger, Guo Zhi said directly: "Miss, why are you looking at me like this? Did I do something to offend you?"

The girl shook her head and said, "It's not you, it's your sister. But you are all family, so your character should be similar."

When Guo Zhi heard this, her heart twitched. Not knowing what had happened at home, she said, "What do you mean? Explain yourself clearly!"

The girl glanced at her and saw that she really seemed to be unaware of the situation. She said, thinking of their friendship, "You don't know what's going on in your family? Our class is spreading the news today that your sister made your great-uncle faint and was sent to the hospital."

"It is said that the uncle was very kind to your family, but you are so unfilial that you don't even let them do any work. It's ridiculous. How much money does a job cost? You are so stingy and don't know etiquette!"

Uncle? What kind of relative is this? She has so many relatives that she can hardly remember them all. Besides, it is usually the elder sisters at home who help to contact them, so she rarely pays attention.

But how can you say that a relative you have never heard of is nice to you?

If it is very good, how could I not know about it? I can only say that it is a rumor. I don’t know how this rumor will end up.

He said, "You believe the rumors so much. The facts have not been confirmed yet, but you are spreading them around in the academy. How good can the principles of etiquette and morality you have learned be?"

The girl frowned and said, "What do you mean by that? You know I didn't verify it, but you threw such dirty water on me. You really deserve to be a family member."

"Have you confirmed it? Where is the evidence?"

"I was sick today, so I took a special leave and went to the clinic with my family. That clinic happened to be where I was treated. Everything you said was what I saw. If any of your words are false, you can do whatever you want to me." The girl said arrogantly.

Guo Zhi shook her head and said, "What if the elder forged it? Don't you have any rude and unreasonable relatives in your family?"

The girl stammered and couldn't speak.

Guo Zhi's stomach rumbled at an inopportune moment, so she turned to her classmates and said, "Let's find a place to eat. We're really hungry."

The classmate nodded.

"Guo Zhi, your whole family is unfilial and has bad behavior. How dare you act like nothing happened in this academy?"

As he said that, he threw a pot of hot food directly at Guo Zhi.
