Chapter 134: Chapter 134: Yu Hai Really Is a Treasure

“Jian’guo and his wife left the house with nothing but their child. Just the night before last, they were sleeping at my place. If it weren’t for my mom hearing something, the three of them would’ve had to sleep outside.”

“This house—they borrowed it from the village chief. Our family helped clean it up, inside and out. It finally started to look like a home, and Jian’guo even went to the county to find work. But now his parents are here again. What are they up to? Isn’t it obvious? They’re taking advantage of Jian’guo being away to bully his wife and kid, trying to get their hands on the little money his wife has!”

“People always say, ‘Leave some room for others, so you can meet again in the future.’ But the way those two are acting, it’s like they’re hoping Jian’guo’s whole family just dies!”

At this point, Yu Hai raised both arms high. “Everyone, tell me—aren’t we all neighbors here? Can we just stand by and do nothing about this?”

“No way!”

Dozens of voices shouted in unison, so loud that Wang Dilai didn’t even dare make a sound.

Wang Dilai looked nervously at the crowd outside, completely baffled. Why were all these people suddenly so united?

Since when did Yu Hai have this kind of influence?

He could actually get the whole village to listen to him and speak up for him!

Just as Wang Dilai was lost in thought, Yu Hai turned to glare at her fiercely. “What? Still not leaving? How thick-skinned can you be? You’ve lived half your life already—at least save yourself a little dignity, or how are you going to live the rest of it?”

“Exactly, Wang Dilai, how old are you now? Still trying to treat your son and daughter-in-law like servants? Your family doesn’t even have that kind of tradition—how did you end up like this? How are you so different from your ancestors?”

“How is she different? She’s just gotten too greedy, used to an easy life!”

“I heard her at dawn today, banging things around in the yard and cursing, complaining about having to cook, wash clothes, sweep the floor, feed the chickens and ducks—muttering all morning. I thought she was just grumbling, but after breakfast, she started making a real scene. Isn’t it just because she wants to make things so unbearable that Jian’guo and his wife will come back and work like oxen for her?”

“Pah! At her age, with a grandson already—and such a good-looking, smart, well-behaved grandson at that! If it were me, I’d spoil him rotten! But her? She scolds him every day, and that’s not even the worst—she hits him too! How old is Daibao? How can her heart be so black?”

There’s a saying: “There’s strength in numbers.” That’s not just talk.

When enough people are against you, just their spit alone could drown you.

Now, with everyone condemning Wang Dilai, no matter how shameless she usually was, she didn’t dare make a fuss anymore.

She scrambled up from the ground, not even bothering to brush the dirt off, and ducked her head as she ran out.

“My family’s business has nothing to do with you people. When Gu Jianguo gets back, I’ll talk to that brat myself!”

That was Gu Hongqi speaking. When Wang Dilai was throwing her tantrum on the ground, he’d just stood by with his hands behind his back, watching. Now that Wang Dilai couldn’t keep up the act, he rushed ahead of her, but not without tossing out a few words to save face.

Yu Nuannuan snuggled in Chen Qiaoqin’s arms, watching the whole spectacle, smacking her lips in satisfaction.

Whether the drama was good or not was one thing, but what really surprised Yu Nuannuan was Yu Hai.

She’d realized it now—Yu Hai really was a treasure.

Every so often, he’d give her a new surprise.

Just those words he’d said, that commanding wave of his arm!

She absolutely loved it!
