Gu Xiaoqing, with tears in her eyes, remained silent and just looked at Mrs. Gu, waiting to see what else Mrs. Gu would say.
The entire village had been offended by Mrs. Gu's earlier words, and now there was no need for her to voice her grievances as others began to speak up on her behalf.
Gu Changhai coughed; this was truly turning into a scandal.
Everyone fell silent.
Mrs. Gu stopped talking, realizing that she had misspoken earlier. Though it was her belief, it was an indefensible stance to take.
And she had offended a whole group of people.
Seeing the anger on Mr. Gu's face, Mrs. Gu involuntarily shrank back.
Gu Rushan wanted to crawl into a hole.
So many people were saying that he was relying on his elder brother to raise his son, which was unbearable.
If no remedy was found promptly, a bad reputation would become unavoidable.
Seeing Mrs. Gu quiet and Mr. Gu full of anger, Gu Rushan knew he couldn't count on them now.
