Chapter 187: Younger Aunt Is Getting A Divorce (6) (1/2)

In the end, the brigade leader had lost his position and Li Aiguo successfully took his place. At that point, the people who had pushed him into the position of brigade leader had also praised him for being a good peasant of this new era. For someone from a peasant background, to work was glorious!

That was how this ruffian had become the leader of the Poplar Brigade. He had immediately seized an eighteen- or nineteen-year-old girl for a wife, and he even had a son now.

He was an extremely dangerous man. At least, he was very dangerous to someone like Gu Qingyao, who was from a landlord family.

These were illogical times. One’s background determined everything.

Li Aiguo had been a vagrant and had no name. The students had given him the name of “Li Aiguo” after he became the brigade leader.

He approached and immediately looked contemptuous when he saw Gu Yunshuang. “Why are you making a fuss? Why aren’t you at home, taking care of your children and showing filial piety to your mother-in-law? Why are you making a commotion for nothing during the new year? A girl from a landlord family cannot change her habit of being a pampered young lady, is that it?”

“If you carry on making a fuss, I’ll teach you a sharp lesson outside the brigade office. Ungrateful wretch.”

Gu Qingyao’s heart sank. This was the first time since her rebirth that she was experiencing the importance of background.

After many years of living in the age of liberty in her previous life, she could not get used to many things after her rebirth. But this incident had completely cleared her mind.

Gu Yunshuang was terrified. “I didn’t… Brigade leader… I didn’t…”

“Didn’t what?” Old Madam Li grew bolder when she saw that Li Aiguo was here. Her mean old eyes glared at them as she said, “You stole food from the house. How dare you deny it? Young ladies from landlord families are all finicky and always kick up a fuss. You’ve been with our family for so many years, but have only given birth to another worthless mouth. You’ve been a freeloader in our family for so many years. Is that fair to our Dahai?”
