I was a stepmother in ancient times, and I led my whole family to wealth.

Chapter 99 Brother Chenglin, are you living off a woman?

Everyone was astonished...

Is Chenglin's new wife really that capable?

Gu Yaozong's face twisted in a grimace: "You're talking nonsense. How could an orphan girl rejected by the Fang family possibly possess such valuable items?"

A storm was brewing in Lu Yunqing's eyes: "Slap him twenty times as a warning to others. How dare you interrupt me before I have spoken! Damn it! Hit him!"

"Yes!" Ah Xi.

This troublemaker thinks he's too idle, doesn't he?

When Gu Yaozong saw that the magistrate was serious, he immediately kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Magistrate, spare my life, this humble subject dares not do it again."

Lu Yunqing: "Attack!"

"Yes!" Ah Xi.

This time, Axi listened to Dongfang Jin's advice and really took off one shoe to hit him.

I used both hands simultaneously, mentally complaining as I hit. This definitely saves more effort than using my hands, and my hands don't hurt.

My feet are a little cold, which isn't very elegant...

"Clap clap clap..."

Seeing that Old Lady Gu was about to speak again, Lu Yunqing smiled and said coldly, "If anyone dares to interrupt again, I will beat them without hesitation."

Axi: "Yes!"

Lu Yunqing looked at Dongfang Jin: "Do you have any evidence that you sold the recipe?"

“Some county magistrates,” Dongfang Jin said, taking out the agreement with Ping An Restaurant from his sleeve, or rather from his spatial storage, and handing it over with both hands.

Emma, ​​I forgot to kneel down and address myself as... a commoner or a woman?

She felt a little uneasy; she wouldn't get beaten up, would she?

Lu Yunqing took it, glanced at it, and then handed it to Anxi.

Anxi took a look at it, nodded, and then handed it to Lu Yunqing.

Dongfang Jin...

How could she have overlooked this person?

Then... I hope her actions just now won't get out there!

Anxi: Yes, even if our family doesn't say it, people in the shadows will.

Holding the agreement, Lu Yunqing looked at the Gu family and said, "The evidence is conclusive. What do you have to say?"

Old Mrs. Gu, with her pig-like face, was still shouting unrepentantly: "Even if we're no longer related, I'm still Gu Chenglin's mother. He has to be filial to me since he has money."

Dongfang Jin couldn't bear it any longer: "Old woman, I earned this money, I bought the house, and the house is in my name."

Gu Chenglin has nothing. Don't you know his own worth? Money? Does he even have any?

He's living with his whole family now, eating my food and sleeping in my house, understand?

Gu Chenglin: "..." Wife, we're still sleeping in the same room.

Jun Qirui...

Brother Chenglin, are you living off a woman?

Anxi...

And this thing?

Grandma Gu glared at her and shouted, "You're Gu Chenglin's wife, so your money belongs to him!"

"He's rich, so he has to be filial to me; not being filial is unfilial."

Dongfang Jin...

What kind of logic is this? If you were Gu Chenglin's biological mother, you would have no problem saying this.

But you are not; you are still a thief!

Lu Yunqing: "..." Why does this sound so familiar?

Ah! Isn't that what his grandmother, who was exiled to Ningguta, often said?

Thinking about these things, a chill ran through my body.

Anxi stepped forward and patted him on the back. Lu Yunqing immediately snapped out of his daze and gave him a grateful look.

Anxi smiled at him; it seemed that Prince Lu was thinking about that wretched family again.

His mother was abused to death by his mother-in-law...

Dongfang Jin walked up to Granny Gu, stretched out her finger, and waved it a few times: "Wrong! What's mine is mine, and it has nothing to do with Gu Chenglin, not even a penny."

It's Gu Chenglin, now he and his family are living off me, and if I'm unhappy, they won't have anything to eat. Understand?

At this moment, the clan chief Gu spoke up, angrily rebuking, "What kind of wife are you? The money you earn belongs to your husband, doesn't it? What's wrong with him using the money to support his parents?"

Dongfang Jin turned to look at the old man and said without any politeness, "Hey Clan Chief Gu, why are you everywhere?"

You've repeatedly sided with this family, forcing our family into this situation. Are you trying to drag both families down with you?

Or is it someone from the Gu family who is your son?

Gu Chenglin: "Xiao Jin..." He was speechless.

Seeing his wife glare at him, he immediately shut up, thinking to himself that he couldn't spread rumors!

Jun Qirui... I'm so tired!

The onlookers began to whisper among themselves...

"real or fake……"

"Could it be..."

"No wonder..."

"I'm just saying..."

"Too……"

"Tsk tsk..."

……

Listening to those people's wild imaginations, Dongfang Jin laughed: "..." I'll never get rid of you, you biased old man!

The seeds have already been planted; she's just waiting for them to take root and sprout.

“Don’t slander my father,” Gu Yucheng said anxiously.

After saying that, he kowtowed heavily to Lu Yunqing: "Reporting to the magistrate, my father would not do such a thing."

My father, as the head of the clan, did indeed show some bias towards Gu Qingshan's family.

But... but that's all. My father was always thinking of the clan's best interests.

Chief Gu was so angry at Dongfang Jin's words that he rolled his eyes. Pointing out a finger, he said in a trembling voice, "You...you...you vile woman, you're slandering me!"

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Jin realized that the old man had already called her a slut twice. She narrowed her eyes and said, "Did I slander you? Did I slander you? When did I slander you?"

"you……"

"What? I'm not telling the truth? You always side with that family no matter what?"

Do you need me to tell you? Oh, I knew it. You've been using all the money your wife works so hard to earn to support this family.

Wait a minute? This family is younger than you, they're not your parents! Could it be…?

Gu Yongliang's chest heaved with anger, his eyes blurred, and one hand trembled as he stammered, "You...you...you..."

“Stop talking nonsense…” Gu Yucheng was surprised that Gu Chenglin’s wife dared to say anything.

Dongfang Jin stared at Gu Yucheng and sneered, "I'm talking nonsense? I haven't even said anything yet! How am I talking nonsense?"

Gu Chenglin reclaimed wasteland, and the extra dozen or so acres of land were stipulated by the authorities to belong to the reclaimers themselves.

Was it him, the clan chief Gu, who came to their door under the pretext of filial piety and handed over all this land to the Gu family?

As the head of the clan, did he leave even a single acre of land for Gu Chenglin?

Gu Yucheng stopped talking, stopped being angry, and even felt a little guilty...

Dongfang Jin glanced at him and said, "Didn't you say I was talking nonsense?"

Today, I'll tear off your fig leaf and say loudly: "The pioneer himself is not required to perform corvée labor. Was it him who, under the orders of the Gu clan chief and in the name of his elder brother, forced Gu Chenglin to go in place of Gu Yaozong?"

Before he could speak, Dongfang Jin continued, "Gu Chenglin just got home after his corvée labor and hasn't even had a chance to sit down yet."

Was it him again, coming to his door on behalf of the Gu clan head, demanding that he meticulously list and hand over his earnings from his corvée labor service?

"Over the years, has Chief Gu been using his authority as clan leader to force clan members to subsidize the Gu family?"

"If this old woman comes to our door and starts crying, will Chief Gu immediately step in to help her?"

Dongfang Jin looked at the villagers who had raised their heads and pointed at Gu Yongliang and his family: "Was the patriarch of the Gu clan appointed just for their family? Is their family the only one in trouble?"

Are you Chief Gu's son?

Open your eyes and look around. In the Gu family, who doesn't weigh less than 150 pounds?

That unmarried Miss Gu must weigh at least 130 pounds, right?

Look, look at those villagers behind you. Come on, look. Although I don't know which one is from your Gu family, which of these people and this family is suffering?

As the head of the Gu clan, does he not care about the entire clan and just let them be the sole heirs?

As soon as Dongfang Jin uttered those resounding words, the way the villagers looked at the Gu family and the clan chief changed.

Gu Yucheng panicked. What she said was true, but...

"you……"

Dongfang Jin narrowed her eyes: "What? Am I wrong?"

Old Mrs. Gu then started jumping around again; it was unclear whether she was deliberately changing the subject or simply didn't understand what people were saying.
