Ah Mao pursed his lips and looked at her hesitantly. After a while, he said, “I saw Bian Yuanzhi. He… is having a hard time.”

Gu Yundong took a sip of water. “Tell me. I’m mentally prepared.”

She knew very well what the Gu family was like.

Ah Mao told her everything about Bian Yuanzhi whom he had met when he entered the village and what the two of them had said. He told her about the kid’s fear and his jobs in the Gu Family.

Gu Yundong was not the only one who was livid. Ah Shu, Ah Gou, and Ah Zhu were equally indignant.

Although they had lived a hard life and were used to seeing the fickleness of human nature, that was because they had no relatives or friends. When their parents and grandparents were still alive, even if they did not treat them well, they would not be so mean. Moreover, they still had brothers to take care of each other now.

Gu Yundong exhaled softly and tightened her grip on the cup.

Ah Zhu stood up. “Why don’t we just sneak into Gu village and steal him?”

“That’s right. The Gu family doesn’t care about him anyway.”

“That kid’s been through a lot there. These people are no good.”

Only Ah Mao sat there and didn’t speak. Shao Qingyuan glanced at him and asked, “Why did the Gu family take him in back then?”

As soon as he said this, everyone was stunned.

That’s right. Since the Gu family disliked this child so much, why did they accept him after Ding Jincheng gave him to them? Bian Mulan was entrusted to the Ding family.

Ah Mao then said, “The Gu family really didn’t want to take him in. At that time, it was Ding Jincheng’s parents who abandoned the child at the entrance of the Gu family. Old Gu didn’t even look at him. It was so cold at that time. Bian Yuanzhi froze at the door for the entire night. Someone in the Gu village couldn’t stand it anymore and brought him home to drink hot water. However, it was impossible for them to take in the child. At that time, it was difficult for anyone. Fortunately, the newly appointed county magistrate of Jiangyu County happened to travel incognito and went to various villages to learn about the people’s livelihood.”

The county magistrate bumped into Bian Yuanzhi, whose face had turned red from the cold. He thought that Gu village was too difficult, so he asked a few more questions and finally understood the situation.

The county magistrate got angry at that moment. Many people died in Yongning Prefecture because of the famine. This was really a time to develop manpower. The new emperor encouraged widows to remarry and have more children.

It was not easy for Gu village to have a child who survived the disaster. He had blood family, and was close to his maternal grandfather’s family, but they refused to take him in and watched him freeze to death.

He called the Gu family and the Ding family over. After repeated questioning and weighing, he finally asked the Gu family to take in this child.

Therefore, Bian Yuanzhi was remembered by the county magistrate. If he suddenly disappeared, both the Gu family and the other people in the Gu village would be worried about being punished by the county magistrate. Who knew how big the matter would be?

Moreover, Bian Yuanzhi’s household registration had already fallen into the Gu family. If he was taken away just like that, he would become an unregistered person and it would be very troublesome in the future.

If they wanted to bring him out, they had to start from other sources.

When Ah Shu and the others heard this, they were a little dejected. Was it so difficult?

“Why don’t we give some money to those people from the Gu family?”

Ah Mao slapped him. “What bad idea did you come up with? It’s obvious that that family is greedy. They might not even give him to you even if you offer the money.”

“Then what do we do?”

Shao Qingyuan looked at Gu Yundong, who had been silent.. “Do you have an idea?”
