“We live in a civilized society,” he declared, his voice echoing through the crowd. “Disperse, everyone. It’s not good to stand around as if you’re about to start a brawl. The village will handle this matter according to everyone’s suggestions, and the few from Chen Village will pay per head.”
“However, let me make this clear once again,” he continued, his tone stern. “If anyone dares to slander the Su family again, trying to drive away our great benefactor, the consequences will not be as lenient as they are now.”
Under Su Ming’s orders, the crowd slowly began to disperse, no longer pursuing the few individuals. After the crowd had dispersed, Gu Zi and the others had a brief chat with Aunt Zhang before entering the house. As soon as they stepped inside, they bumped into the two brothers who had just come down from upstairs.
Su Bing ran down the stairs and looked at his mother, asking, “Mom, what just happened? Why were those people here?”
He had been feeling unwell the night before, and after taking the medicine his mother gave him, he had slept soundly through the night. He had woken up late this morning and saw a crowd of people at the door from his window. They were dispersing noisily, as if something significant had happened, and it was undoubtedly related to their family, otherwise, they wouldn’t have gathered at the Su family’s doorstep.
Su Li, still half-asleep, followed behind. He had been shaken awake and dragged out of bed by his brother. He complained to his mother, “Mom, my brother is becoming more and more brutal. He just shook me so hard that I thought my brain was going to fall out. Uh, what just happened?” Only then did he realize that he had heard some noise outside while he was half-asleep.
Gu Zi led them to the dining room, “You guys go ahead and drink some milk powder first. I’ll prepare breakfast for you. We’ll have steamed dumplings, it’s more convenient. The village had a power outage last night, and your father and Uncle Jin Long have already gone to the city. The power company’s people are coming to repair it, and it will be fixed soon. We’ll have to use candles for lighting these few days.
“Remember to extinguish the candles before you go to bed at night. After school today, each of you should buy a flashlight from the supermarket near the school. I’ll give you the money later.
