Oh, I was really smart. Not only did I make Chunmei the scapegoat, I also instigated the relationship between Gu Jinzhong and Lin Shuangshuang.

Even if she leaves the Gu family in the future, she will plant a seed of resentment in Gu Jinzhong's heart, and the Gu family's life will never be peaceful.

"I went to find her to comment. She framed me, but she took advantage of a child."

Gu Jinzhong stopped her: "Don't go, it will be bad for Chunmei if this matter gets out of hand."

"Besides, we have no evidence. We are all one family. It doesn't look good if we break up."

"If the money is lost, it is lost. We originally planned to compensate her. Now that something like this has happened, we will treat it as if we have already compensated her. We don't owe her anything."

Hu Fangfang asked uncertainly: "No need to come to apologize?"

Gu Jinzhong said angrily: "No need."

"Just keep away from each other from now on."

Hu Fangfang felt happy when she saw him angry.

She just heard her sigh: "This is fifty taels of silver. It is all our belongings. If we just say goodbye and it is gone, how will we live in the future?"

"It's all my fault. If only I could get the money back."

Gu Jinzhong's expression was dull: "If you still have some silver at home, you can use it first."

"When I make more hairpins, I'll have money for them."

"You can't buy a hairpin for a few pennies, and the children still have to study."

"How about I go back to my parents' house and borrow some?"

Gu Jinzhong frowned: "Don't go, otherwise your mother will embarrass you again."

"The big deal... the kids won't study for now."

"How can this be done? Master Su said that our Goudan Gouwa are all good at studying, and they can learn faster than Chunhua and Little Shitou from the second room."

"Don't delay the children just because of a few taels of silver."

Hu Fangfang thought for a while: "How about this? You can borrow some from the second house first, enough for the children to study."

"Then I owe next month's repair work first, and we will make up for it later when we have money."

"This is what Mrs. Lin owes us. If she hadn't instigated Chunmei, our money would not have been lost. She should make up for it."

"But we won't let her make up for it. We just owe it first, which is enough to give her face."

"I know she hates me, but she shouldn't be angry with you and the child."

"She even helps people in the village, but she doesn't help you. She doesn't care about the lives of the children. To put it bluntly, she looks down on our eldest brother and doesn't treat us as a family at all."

"Look at the second wife and the third sister. She didn't help. Why didn't she help you?"

"Actually, I've heard about the matter between you and Mrs. Liu before. It was because she didn't help Mr. Liu that Mr. Liu caused trouble."

"If she was treated fairly, maybe there wouldn't be so many troubles later, and the children wouldn't lose their mother at such a young age."

"You won't be laughed at so hard that you can't hold your head up..."

As Gu Jinzhong listened to Hu Fangfang's words, his face became increasingly ugly: "Don't say these words again."

"I'm telling the truth, why can't I tell the truth?"

Gu Jinzhong was silent for a long time and finally said: "If you don't want to help, then don't help. They have no obligation to help us."

"It's a matter of affection to help, but it's a duty not to help. We can't hold grudges against others just because they don't help us."

Hu Fangfang said disapprovingly: "She has no obligation to help us. Does she have the obligation to help the second brother and third sister?"

"She helps her second wife and third sister with money, effort, and heart, but she is the only one who is ruthless and unkind to you. What does she mean?"

"Is she targeting me or you?"

"I also know that we can't hold grudges against others just because they help us, but we are all a family. Why does she help this family but not that family? Is this fair to us?"

"Although I haven't read a book, I have heard a saying that when there is too much, there is too much."

"Either she doesn't help anyone, and she helps everyone if she wants to. If she doesn't help, she is deliberately targeting us. That's why I'm angry."

"Look at the people in the village. People who have nothing to do with her are all living better than us. Our family's life is almost unsolvable."

"I finally found a way to make money, but she stopped me completely. She just wants to see our whole family starve to death."

"She treats you differently just because your legs are crippled and of no use to her."

"To put it bluntly, she just looks down on you."

Gu Jinzhong's face became increasingly ugly: "Stop talking and get out."

Hu Fangfang became angry when she knew that he had listened to what she said, so she naturally let it go.

Even if you are provocative, you must learn to be moderate, otherwise it will only be self-defeating.

Chunmei knelt in the courtyard all day and night. Hu Fangfang still let her go to school the next morning, but also assigned her tasks.

She wants all of Lin Shuangshuang’s sketches!

She wanted to make all Lin Shuangshuang's clothes obsolete and not a single one of them could be sold!

"Why did you let her get up? You should have let her kneel in the courtyard for three days to build up her memory."

Hu Fangfang said angrily: "That's almost enough."

"She was instigated, so she can't be entirely blamed."

"Ms. Lin is so scheming. Let alone a child, not even an adult can defeat her."

"Otherwise she can become an official?"

"Who knows what tricks she used!"

"It's not certain whether the child in her belly is from the Gu family."

"The fourth brother didn't come back with us. She went out and came back pregnant. Who knows whose child she is pregnant with?"

"Perhaps she exchanged her body for the official position!"

Ever since she discovered that Gu Jinzhong was already somewhat dissatisfied with Lin Shuangshuang, Hu Fangfang became even more unscrupulous in throwing dirty water on Lin Shuangshuang.

Gu Jinzhong frowned: "Don't say these things again. It's not good to gossip behind someone's back."

"If people listen to it, it will ruin their reputation."

He didn't lose his temper. It seemed that he really had a problem with Lin Shuangshuang.

If she had dared to slander Lin Shuangshuang like this before, he would have fought her tooth and nail.

Hu Fangfang curled her lips: "I'm just talking in front of you. How can I go out and talk nonsense like this?"

"Anyway, don't talk about it anymore. We just won't have much contact with her in the future."

"Okay, I'll do whatever you want!"

As for Chunmei, as soon as she arrived at Gu's house with her two younger brothers, Lin Shuangshuang discovered the scars on her face and hands.

"Who was beaten?"

Chunmei looked at Lin Shuangshuang's concerned eyes and couldn't hold back her tears anymore.

"Hu Fangfang beat him?"

Chunmei shook her head: "My father beat me."

"Why did your father hit you?"

Chunmei didn't want to lie, but she had to follow what Hu Fangfang taught her.

"I wanted to avenge you, so I pushed the bad woman. She fell on her stomach, and my father beat me."

Lin Shuangshuang was stunned: "Avenge me?"

"She steals your clothes and robs you of your business."

Lin Shuangshuang said distressed and helplessly: "You kid, don't be so reckless in the future. You'll have to endure the hardship this time."

"Children and adults, please don't interfere. Fourth Aunt will handle it herself."

"Don't have any head-on conflict with her in the future. What you have to do is protect yourself and your two younger brothers."

"Don't worry about your father for now. Hu Fangfang is counting on your father to protect her. She won't touch your father."

"Come into the house with me and I'll give you some medicine."

"Ah."

After Chunmei took the medicine, she went to study.

Lin Shuangshuang stared at Chunmei's back thoughtfully.
