Chapter 76: Chapter 76 Bullying

As soon as Mrs. Zhang appeared!

Gu Changshun seemed to see a savior, “Mother, Mother, come save me, come save me, Third Uncle not only tied me up but also wants to send me to the Magistrate!”

“Son, don’t be afraid, Mother is here to help you.” Without asking for any reasons, Mrs. Zhang barraged Gu Ya and Su Yunjin with abuse, “Why did you tie up my son? Release my son immediately! If you don’t, this will never end between us!”

Gu Ya sneered coldly and taunted, “Elder sister-in-law, before you accuse, why don’t you ask your dear son what commendable deeds he has done? Ask him why I tied him up in the first place?”

Gu Changshun felt a pang of guilt.

This was also why, as Gu Ya was taking him to the Magistrate’s place, he didn’t dare to shout out; Gu Changshun feared that if he raised an alarm, the whole village would become aware of his doings that day.

...

If people found out that he had made advances toward his aunt and had laid hands on her, the scandal would spread throughout the village, and his reputation would be tainted. Worse still, he might be looked down upon by the entire Gu Family village thereafter.

“Mother, I…” Gu Changshun dared not tell his mother, Mrs. Zhang, the truth, but she was protective and immediately asked him, “Changshun, what happened? Is it that your Third Uncle and his wife took advantage of everyone’s absence to bully you?”

Hearing his mother, Mrs. Zhang’s words, Gu Changshun immediately echoed her claim, “Mother, yes, that’s right. Third Uncle and Aunt Su conspired to bully me! Today, when Aunt Su saw me coming back, she shamelessly tried to seduce me. I did not yield, but when Third Uncle saw us, he accused me, without any evidence, of harboring inappropriate thoughts toward Aunt Su and even said he would take me to the Magistrate!”

“Really, Gu Ya? How dare you slander my son like this?” After berating Gu Ya, Mrs. Zhang turned her wrath on Su Yunjin, “And you, you shameless woman, not only did you seduce my son, but you also dared to join your husband in framing him? Hmph, I tell you, with me here today, there’s no way you’ll succeed in framing my son.”

Just then, the other Gu Family members who had been harvesting grain in the fields also gathered around. Mrs. An was the first to ask, “What on earth is going on? The whole village has come to gawk? Can’t you all be a little less troublesome!”

“Mother, what’s happening? Didn’t you hear clearly just now?” Mrs. Zhang said with a sneer, glancing at Gu Ya and Su Yunjin, “It’s clear that today it’s Third Brother and his wife who’re bullying my son.”

Mrs. An raised an eyebrow toward Gu Ya, “Third son, is it so?”

“Mother, if I hadn’t returned in time today, Gu Changshun might have really acted upon his aunt! To harbor such unclean, vile intentions toward his own aunt, don’t you agree he should be taken to the Magistrate?” Gu Ya was still outraged, his tone icy and bone-chilling to the listeners.

“What? What did you say? Third son, you mean Changshun, Changshun actually toward his aunt…” Mrs. An was utterly shocked and incredulous.

Gu Ya nodded, “Mother, it’s true! That is exactly what happened.”

After her astonishment, Mrs. An looked toward her much-loved eldest grandson, Gu Changshun, and like Gu Ya, she was extremely infuriated, repeatedly muttering, “Scoundrel, sinner, oh dear, this is truly sinful!”

“Mother, don’t listen to the nonsense of my Third Brother and his wife! Don’t you know what kind of person Changshun is? How could he possibly commit such a shameless act?” Mrs. Zhang still defended her son, staunchly disbelieving he would behave improperly toward Su Yunjin. She insisted that it was Gu Ya and his wife who had wronged her son.
