Chapter 103 The old man personally reported the crime, upholding justice even at the cost of family ties (1/2)

Qin Shuman hugged Lin Han tightly.

“What my daughter-in-law said is exactly what I said. If you bully my daughter-in-law, you are going against me and Gu Huaiming.”

"Brother, I'll still call you brother, but don't push your luck and pay me back right now."

In the past, Qin Shuman would never have said such a thing, but seeing Lin Han being bullied, she didn't care about manners anymore and rushed over to fight.

When Grandma Jiang saw that Gu Jingming actually wanted to bully her granddaughter-in-law, she didn't tolerate it and handed a stick to Grandpa Gu.

"Old man, beat him up."

Grandpa Gu picked up a stick and started beating Gu Jingming. He had always disapproved of the brat's behavior, and now that he had caused such a big mess, he really deserved a beating.

Gu Jingming ran away with his head in his hands.

"Yang Feng, quickly give the two thousand yuan to your sister-in-law. Do you want to see me beaten to death?"

"Where would I get money? All the money was taken by that scoundrel Erni."

Gu Jingming was beaten quite badly. "Don't try to play the poor card with me. Erni is taking your salary, not your savings. Where did all that money in the house go?"

"Your family didn't take it all, did they? I want a divorce, I want a divorce."

Upon hearing about the divorce, Yang Feng had no choice but to say she would go home to get the money.

Gu Jingming is being held hostage at Old Master Gu's house. If Yang Feng doesn't bring the money, he will continue to be beaten.

"Go quickly and come back soon, or you'll be a widow."

Lin Han sat on the sidelines watching the show, thinking that as long as the money was in hand, the Gu family would surely give Qin Shuman an explanation.

Ten minutes later, Qin Shuman was handed a thick wad of cash.

"Take this. Fang Zhiwu's matter is settled. Don't keep bringing it up."

Gu Jingming was humiliated. If he had known that sending someone to bring Fang Zhiwu out of the countryside would cause such a commotion, he would have preferred to let Fang Zhiwu fend for himself in that remote mountain village.

"Is this alright now? Mom and Dad, are you satisfied? I'm your son too. You can't be so biased. The second child lives so far away, and in the end, I'll still be the one to take care of you in your old age. You can't just think about the second child."

Grandma Jiang was so angry that she hit him with a vase.

"You heartless bastard, all these years your brother has lived far away in Qingzhou and hasn't enjoyed a single bit of the good fortune he deserves."

On the contrary, you two eat and drink at home, and now you turn around and say I'm biased. Don't you have any conscience?

With the family in turmoil, Old Master Gu shook his head and picked up the phone to call the government's discipline inspection office.

“This is the home of Gu Changping of the General Military Region. I am reporting Gu Jingming for misconduct. Please arrange for someone to investigate as soon as possible.”

"dad!"

Gu Jingming's voice cracked from shouting.

"Are you trying to destroy me?"

After much painful reflection, Old Master Gu said, "You ruined yourself; I was just doing my job impartially."

Yang Feng seemed to have lost her spine, collapsing to the ground. "Why won't you give us a way out?"

Lin Han admired Old Master Gu for his righteousness in turning his own family away. In fact, she had already written a letter of complaint and sent it to Gu Jingming's workplace. Even if the Gu family wanted to protect him, it would be to no avail.

The effect will be better if Grandpa Gu makes the call himself.

"Grandma, I'm hungry. When are we going to eat?"

Grandma Jiang came to her senses and said, "Oh dear, my dear granddaughter-in-law is hungry. The meal is ready, let's eat now."
