Chapter 56: Chapter 56: Masters at the Farm

Gu Jiaojiao: "..."

’I never said that. It doesn’t matter if they’re a good person or a bad person—if anyone messes with me, I’ll beat them to a pulp.’

"I would never get into a fight with anyone."

’I’ll just use my feet.’

"That’s more like it. You’ve been frail since you were a child, so you must never fight with anyone. If someone bothers you, just have Shuo Ci go beat them up."

Mrs. Gu said as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

Su’s mother immediately agreed. "Yes, Jiaojiao’s mother is absolutely right. If anyone gives you trouble, just have us beat them up."

"Jiaojiao, and me! If anyone dares to mess with you, I’ll definitely give them a good thrashing. I don’t care if they’re women or not."

Second Brother Gu declared forcefully, looking at Gu Jiaojiao eagerly, hoping for her to nod.

The others also looked at Gu Jiaojiao, waiting for her to agree. Gu Jiaojiao could only nod and promise, "Don’t worry. If anyone bothers me, I’ll come find you."

And so, the Su family happily chatted while they worked. Those counting money counted money, those chopping meat chopped meat, those kneading dough kneaded dough, and those snipping scallions snipped scallions.

Meanwhile, a commotion was brewing outside the Su family’s courtyard. Sheng Shiwu had shouted for Old Madam Dong so loudly that it drew a crowd.

The moment Ren Xiaofang stepped outside, a few people eager for a spectacle started following her, and more joined them along the way.

Even though there were television dramas to watch by this time of night, it couldn’t stop people’s restless, gossiping hearts.

Halfway there, they ran into Aunt Song, the director of the compound’s Women’s Federation. "Director, you’re heading out to see the commotion this late too?"

"We’re just going to the Su family’s place to see if they need any help."

"You’re so warm-hearted, Director! Their house must be a total mess right now; they definitely need help."

Aunt Song: "..."

’Help with what? We’re going to ask Mr. Gu about the Divine Doctor, but her father-in-law said not to make it public.’

Seeing the director of the Women’s Federation fall silent, the crowd figured she was also going to watch the show while handling some business on the side.

With that, the group sped up. "Director, we’ll go on ahead to scout things out. You two take your time."

They felt awkward walking with the director, so they all tacitly picked up the pace and moved past Aunt Song and her husband.

"Honey, did something really happen at the Su family’s place? Look at everyone rushing over there," Uncle Song asked uncertainly.

"Mom, Dad, let’s hurry up and see. There are so many people heading toward the Su family’s house."

After saying goodbye to Gu Jiaojiao that afternoon, Song Zijie had gone home to wait for his parents and tell them that his illness could be completely cured.

He only said that the Divine Doctor Mr. Gu knew was at the farm; he didn’t mention that Gu Jiaojiao was the one who had treated him.

He trusted Gu Jiaojiao, but he wasn’t sure his parents would believe him.

This made Uncle Song and his wife ecstatic. They then secretly told Mr. Song.

Experience counts for a lot. Mr. Song said that as long as there was even a sliver of hope, they shouldn’t give up. He then asked who among them was willing to donate a piece of their liver.

Uncle Song, his wife, and their younger daughter, Song Qianqian, all said they were willing to donate a piece of their liver to Song Zijie.

Although Song Qianqian was afraid of pain, she still declared without hesitation that she was willing to give a piece of her liver to her big brother.

The actions of Song the Second’s family deeply gratified Mr. Song, who gave his orders decisively.

"Don’t spread this around for now, and especially don’t let the eldest branch of the family know. Go find the Gu Family immediately.

Don’t doubt the existence of a Divine Doctor. There are masters hidden away on the farm—more talented people there than you can possibly imagine."

Uncle Song and Aunt Song felt as if they had been given a tranquilizer, and they headed for the Su family’s home filled with infinite hope.

Overhearing a few snippets of conversation along the way, Aunt Song finally learned that the Dong family’s youngest daughter and the Zhou family’s eldest daughter had gotten into a huge fight over Su Shuochi.

’This is unacceptable! Gu Jiaojiao isn’t just the Sheng Family’s fake young miss anymore; she’s the real young miss of the Gu Family.’

’The old master of the Gu Family is highly respected, and his students are everywhere. His network is absolutely top-notch.’

’Right now, our Song Family needs a favor from the Gu Family. We can’t afford to offend Gu Jiaojiao!’

And so, Aunt Song rushed to the gate of the Su family’s courtyard, where the two girls had already been pulled apart by their respective families.

However, they were still hurling insults and accusations at each other. With their faces swollen like pig heads and their hair a disheveled mess, it was a truly cringe-worthy sight.

"What do you think you’re doing? It’s late! Instead of being home watching TV, what are you all doing out here? Disperse, all of you! Hurry up and disperse.

Have you no consideration? Our hero is in poor health and needs to rest early.

If you want to argue, go argue in the public square. Don’t disturb our hero’s rest! Still not leaving? Are you trying to get sent to the farm to feed the pigs?"

"We’re going, we’re going right now." The onlookers, though not fully satisfied, started to leave as they talked.

"We don’t want to go feed pigs on a farm! We’re leaving."

"Morals really are declining these days. To think that young women would publicly fight over a married man!"

"..."

"Watch your mouths! Who’s fighting over a cripple? My Yuanyuan has a fiancé."

Ren Xiaofang was so angry she could have spat blood. To protect her daughter’s reputation, she started spouting nonsense without thinking.

"How come we’ve never heard that your Yuanyuan has a fiancé? Who is he? We’ll only believe you if you tell us his name."

One of Mrs. Sheng’s subordinates was the first to jump out and challenge her. She relied on Mrs. Sheng at the song and dance troupe, and her husband was one of Mr. Sheng’s men.

"That’s right. If she has a fiancé, why be so secretive? Tell us his name and we’ll believe you."

"Perhaps there isn’t a fiancé, and Old Madam Dong is just lying to cover up the truth."

The Dong Family was powerful, but there’s safety in numbers, and with so many people present, they weren’t afraid of being targeted.

Besides, the Dong Family was still a step below the Sheng Family and the Song Family. And now, Director Song was clearly siding with the Su family.

Ren Xiaofang was cornered into silence. She was just about to throw her dignity to the wind and cause a scene to get through this.

"Yuanyuan is my fiancée. She fought with Zhou Mei for other reasons. You all should stop spreading baseless rumors."

He Aiguo, the eldest son of the He Family, spoke with a firm, resonant voice. After speaking, he went over to help Dong Yuanyuan up.

Everyone in this world wants to be deeply loved, and Dong Yuanyuan was no exception. "He Aiguo and I are dating."

Compared to other men, He Aiguo’s own prospects were quite good.

Not only was he Dong Yuanyuan’s former classmate, but the two were also childhood sweethearts who had grown up together in the same compound.

He worked in a government department and, despite his young age, was already a key figure in Qing City with outstanding abilities.

The only thing about He Aiguo that Dong Yuanyuan was dissatisfied with was his height; he was only about 1.7 meters tall.

Although he was handsome and refined, he wasn’t the Prince Charming Dong Yuanyuan had always dreamed of.

After learning that Su Shuochi’s legs were crippled with no hope of recovery, Dong Yuanyuan had considered accepting He Aiguo’s courtship.

The two had indeed been corresponding by letter to build their relationship and were close to discussing marriage.

But just as Dong Yuanyuan returned, she heard the news of Su Shuochi’s marriage. Unable to accept it in the moment, she had shown up at his door.

Having been spoiled since childhood, Dong Yuanyuan was undoubtedly impulsive, which was how she had caused such an uncontrollable mess.

When He Aiguo first arrived and saw Dong Yuanyuan, disheveled from fighting over another man, he couldn’t help but suck in a sharp breath. His heart seemed to clench into a tight ball, and for a moment, he was overcome with both heartache and fury.

But he was very fond of Dong Yuanyuan and had long known how much she liked Su Shuochi, so he was willing to help her clean up this mess.
