I was a stepmother in ancient times, and I led my whole family to wealth.

Chapter 180 "Meatball" Gu Jinsuo

The guard was initially reluctant to act. Although he was a guard, he was still an adult, and he hesitated to bully a child.

Seeing that he didn't make a move, Gu Jinshuo said fiercely that if he didn't listen to him and didn't hit him, he would sell his wife and daughter into a brothel.

When Dongfang Jin heard Sun Zhi say this, he was speechless. He was speechless to the core.

This Gu Jinshuo is the same age as Shi Tou. Look at the words he said. He's so vicious at such a young age.

It's clear that his maternal family wasn't any better.

And then there's the Ye family in Changhe Town. Look at the behavior of Granny Gu they raised. She doesn't believe the Ye family doesn't know how Granny Gu behaves in her husband's family.

How can a family like that, which runs a private school, teach and resolve students' doubts?

Can it produce good students?

I'm really curious that the private school hasn't closed down after all these years.

I heard that this Gu Jinshuo has been studying at the Ye family's private school in Changhe Town for more than a year.

Is this all the learning has achieved?

It's the dead of winter now, cold outside, and people in the countryside don't have much entertainment.

The women would gather in groups of three or five at a house, sit on the warm kang (heated brick bed), and some would embroider, some would twist hemp rope, some would spin thread, some would sew shoe soles, and some would mend clothes, chatting about this and that while they worked.

Sure enough, the commotion quickly attracted a lot of people, with some families bringing out almost their entire household to watch the spectacle.

The village was still bustling when the Li family came to make trouble.

Now everyone in Lingwu Village knows that the children from Sun Xing's family and the children from Xu's family often go to Gu Chenglin's house to study.

The people of Lingwu Village all knew that Gu Chenglin's family had a scholar as a son.

Unfortunately, some of them had offended Gu Chenglin badly, while others had no money and dared not send their children over.

Yesterday was the day the private school was closed for the holidays, and the Lunar New Year is just over a month away.

All the private schools were closed for the holidays, and the children didn't go to school. After finishing the homework assigned by their teachers, they had nothing to do.

The academy wouldn't let out for another half month. After the children in the village who attended the private school were released from school, they didn't seem to be as diligent as the children in the county in completing the homework assigned by their teachers.

They had been eagerly anticipating their holiday, and they were determined to have as much fun as they could.

When Dongfang Jin arrived, she saw that Gu Jingye was in a disheveled state.

His face was almost swollen like a pig's head, and blood was still dripping from the corner of his mouth.

Sun Qingzhuang and Sun Qingdong also had different injuries, and a group of children nearby were jeering and shouting to kill him.

There was a chubby little guy in the middle who looked like a ball of flesh. If you knew him, you'd think he was a person, but if you didn't, you'd think he was a moving water tank.

A large group of adults, mostly from the Gu family, surrounded them, watching everything with cold indifference.

On the other side, several members of the Gu family, Sun Xing's branch of the family, and Lin Lizheng's family were confronting each other.

The man's foot was about to kick Gu Jingye in the heart; if that kick landed, Gu Jingye would be seriously injured, if not killed.

Ruyi said angrily, "This person actually has internal energy?"

Upon hearing Ruyi's words, Dongfang Jin felt a surge of anger rising within him.

Internal energy?

It's important to understand that in this fictional ancient world, if a martial artist cultivates internal energy, they have already entered the ranks of martial artists.

Why would someone want to be a servant?

Damn it, even if you're a servant, you're still an adult. How can an adult bully a child who's only a few years old? Where's the bottom line?

This really seems to be heading towards killing people.

Dongfang Jin quickly took out the pistol from his spatial storage, aimed it at the man's outstretched leg, and fired a shot into his kneecap with a "bang".

The man was shot in the kneecap and immediately knelt down, followed by another "crack" sound.

Because he had used force with his leg, he hadn't been able to retract the force after Dongfang Jin fired the shot, and his kneeling caused him to suffer a second injury.

"Ah!..." His miserable screams could be said to have echoed through the sky.

Everyone present was so frightened that they shuddered.

Because of the gunshot, everyone fell silent, looking around in fear to see who had fired the hidden weapon.

Unfortunately, no one realized that it was Dongfang Jin who had done it.

Taking advantage of the moment when no one was looking, Dongfang Jin put the pistol into his spatial storage, ignoring the panic of those people.

He walked up to Gu Jingye and asked in a cold voice, "Who else did this?"

When Gu Jingye saw his stepmother arrive, his eyes welled up with tears: "Stepmother, Xiaohui's leg is injured. Uncle Lin Yu and Uncle Zhuang Hua have already taken him to the county."

Dongfang Jin gritted her teeth: "Who did all of this!"

Sun Qingzhuang walked over and pointed at the man kneeling on the ground wailing: "Auntie, this is the one who hit Xiaohui and Jingye. He ambushed them."

Xiao Hui had just fallen for his trick, and he also lacked any martial ethics, fighting with all his might.

Dongfang Jin...

Kid, can't you fight without going all out?

Did you think it was just a friendly sparring match between a few of you, ending there?

Ruyi, find me a stick.

[Would a baseball bat work?]

This is good.

As Dongfang Jin spoke, she took a baseball bat out of her sleeve and walked over menacingly.

He channeled his inner strength and struck the other leg of the kneeling, wailing man hard.

"You fucking bully my son, I'll beat you to death."

Lin Lizheng shouted, "Xiao Jin, stop!"

But his shout came too late.

With a "crack" and an even more agonizing scream, the people were so frightened that they involuntarily took several steps back.

Chenglin's family is too ruthless...

Gu Jinshuo trembled in fright, but her lawless nature still led her to point at Dongfang Jin and curse, "Crazy woman, you're saying that broken-legged bastard is your son?"

Dongfang Jin looked at the fleshy ball and squinted: "Oh, where did the river dry up and expose you?"

"Bastard? Who is this bastard talking to?"

Gu Jinsuo raised his neckless chin: "I'm talking to you, you lowly bastard."

Dongfang Jin stared at the sphere, its head seemingly glued to his shoulders: "Oh, you've been studying so much, have you taught all the knowledge you've learned to your teacher?"

At this moment, a child leaned close to Gu Jinsuo's ear and whispered, "She is Gu Chenglin's new wife."

Gu Jinsuo squinted and glared at me, his eyes like those of a turtle: "Oh! So it's you, you jinx! How dare you insult me? I'll beat you to death, you bastard!"

"Slap, slap," Dongfang Jin slapped him across the face twice, left and right.

"Such foul language at such a young age, what a bunch of bastards."

"Ah! You...you dare to hit me!"

"I'm beating you up, you little brat! How about you say another one?"

"you……"

When Old Lady Gu saw her beloved grandson being beaten, she rushed out from behind the crowd with a loud "Aww!"

"Fang Jin, you bitch, how dare you hit my precious grandson! I'll fight you to the death!"

"Heh, so the old man is here too? No wonder this little brat is so arrogant."

"What, is this following Chinese tradition: after the young are punished, the elders are punished?"

"You jinx..."

"I said, Granny Gu, can't you curse something fresh? It's all just jinxes and bad luck."

"Are you a jinx yourself, and you're afraid others will find out, so you're pinning it on me?"

"You..."

"Shut up, look at your face full of fat, you look awful. Between us, who looks more like a jinx?"

"When people get old, they should cultivate their character and temperament. Look at you... By the way, you're only forty-five or forty-six, right? You look like you're sixty."

With that mean-spirited look, this family is always plagued by financial losses and misfortunes. Is it all your doing?

"Shut up……"

"You can't shut him up. Look at your chubby grandson. Look at yourself from head to toe, does he even look like a human being?"
