CHAPTER 103: CHAPTER 103: EXPELLED

Gu Nian furrowed her brows lightly, "Pandi, what are you saying? How could I have the power to get the village chief to evict your family from the village?"

Besides, in this matter, isn’t the village chief siding with your family?

She didn’t even have the right to seek justice for herself, let alone drive anyone out of the village.

"But, the village chief said if you have to blame someone, blame our family for offending someone we shouldn’t have." Although the village chief didn’t say it outright, the implication was clearly that their family shouldn’t have offended Gu Nian.

Moreover, apart from Little Niu pushing Gu Nian into the lotus pond, their family hadn’t offended anyone else!

Gu Nian shook her head helplessly, "Pandi, look at me, do I look like someone who could persuade the village chief to drive your family out? Besides, you know what kind of people my parents are in the village. Even if they’re a bit resentful about Little Niu pushing me, they wouldn’t have the power to do anything to you!"

Lin Pandi was silent.

She wasn’t very clear about this matter either, but her mother told her that unless she could plead with Gu Nian not to have their family evicted, she would have no choice but to marry Mr. Liu from the town as a concubine.

Gu Nian didn’t know her thoughts, she patted her hand comfortingly, "Pandi, I can’t help you with this."

Mrs. Zhang and Little Niu were excessive, but Little Niu’s four sisters were innocent and pitiable.

She didn’t know their family’s situation either.

After the lotus pond incident, being able to not kick them while they were down already made her admire her own broad-mindedness.

Besides, she was only six years old, she still had a lot of her own issues to solve and even less capability to help others.

"It’s... it’s fine, then I’ll go back and ask my parents, see if they got it wrong, perhaps our family inadvertently offended someone without realizing it!"

The sorrow on Lin Pandi’s face grew thicker, and her back looked rather frail as she turned to leave.

Mrs. Jiang saw this scene from afar and walked out of the yard to ask her, "Niannian, was that Pandi just now? What did she say to you?"

Gu Nian shook her head, "Nothing much, just that maybe their family offended someone, and the village chief now wants their entire family to move out of the village. I’m not sure about the details."

Mrs. Jiang snorted with a gloating expression, "That Mrs. Zhang has always been shrewish, having just one son spoiled beyond control, who knows who they might have offended, thinking everyone is as easy to bully as our family, now karma has caught up with them!"

Gu Nian smiled wryly, "Mom, I’m heading out."

"Be careful." Mrs. Jiang admonished, and after watching Gu Nian’s figure disappear around the corner, the smile on her face gradually faded.

It served Mrs. Zhang right to be kicked out, though it’s a pity for their daughters.

Although other families also favor sons over daughters, at least their daughters are still their own flesh and blood, unlike Mrs. Zhang who treated her daughters as less than human, there aren’t many like her.

Mrs. Jiang then turned and told Lin Sanshui about the incident, but Lin Sanshui didn’t feel particularly happy about it.

After all, they all lived in the same village, somewhat related.

If it weren’t for Little Niu’s outrageous behavior this time that almost endangered Niannian’s life, he wouldn’t have minded some minor conflicts.

He just didn’t know who they had offended to have such great power.

The village chief was helping their family just a few days ago, and now he’s saying to drive them out!
