Chapter 569: Retort Loudly

“However, let me make this clear once again,” he continued, his tone stern. “If anyone dares to slander the Su family again, trying to drive away our great benefactor, the consequences will not be as lenient as they are now.”

Under Su Ming’s orders, the crowd slowly began to disperse, no longer pursuing the few individuals. After the crowd had dispersed, Gu Zi and the others had a brief chat with Aunt Zhang before entering the house. As soon as they stepped inside, they bumped into the two brothers who had just come down from upstairs.

Su Bing ran down the stairs and looked at his mother, asking, “Mom, what just happened? Why were those people here?”

He had been feeling unwell the night before, and after taking the medicine his mother gave him, he had slept soundly through the night. He had woken up late this morning and saw a crowd of people at the door from his window. They were dispersing noisily, as if something significant had happened, and it was undoubtedly related to their family, otherwise, they wouldn’t have gathered at the Su family’s doorstep.

Su Li, still half-asleep, followed behind. He had been shaken awake and dragged out of bed by his brother. He complained to his mother, “Mom, my brother is becoming more and more brutal. He just shook me so hard that I thought my brain was going to fall out. Uh, what just happened?” Only then did he realize that he had heard some noise outside while he was half-asleep.

Gu Zi led them to the dining room, “You guys go ahead and drink some milk powder first. I’ll prepare breakfast for you. We’ll have steamed dumplings, it’s more convenient. The village had a power outage last night, and your father and Uncle Jin Long have already gone to the city. The power company’s people are coming to repair it, and it will be fixed soon. We’ll have to use candles for lighting these few days.

“Remember to extinguish the candles before you go to bed at night. After school today, each of you should buy a flashlight from the supermarket near the school. I’ll give you the money later.

“The people who came just now were looking for trouble. They wanted the Su family to bear the cost of repairing the electrical circuit. There might be some gossip at school, but you don’t need to pay attention to it.

“However, if anyone continues to slander the Su family and spread rumors outside, you don’t need to be afraid. Walk with your back straight, retort loudly, and show the spirit of the Su family, understand?”

News in the village spread quickly. There were quite a few children from several villages who went to the same school as Su Bing, some of whom were even classmates. After hearing about these events from their families, they would inevitably continue the discussion at school. Gu Zi’s request to the two brothers was to bravely face this situation.

If Su Shen did not plan to retire, the Su family would be considered a military family and should have its own dignity. But even if Su Shen decided to retire and not use his military status, he was still a person who had made outstanding contributions to the region. How could his family not stand tall and have their own spirit? This matter must be handled carefully.

Su Bing listened carefully and took everything to heart. After drinking his milk in a few gulps, he went to the kitchen to help.

Su Li, usually a simple and honest boy, also became serious when discussing such matters. He patted his chest and said, “Mom, I’m not afraid at all. If I hear anyone continue to slander our family, I will stand at the highest place and loudly retort!”

Gu Zi put the dumplings in the steamer, her mood improving significantly. “That’s right, stand at the highest place and tell them that we, the Su family, are not to be bullied. Your father is a man of few words, so as his family, we must speak for him. He has prospered and never forgotten to give back to his hometown. His influence in this area is clear, and we should all be proud of him.”

Thinking back to the incident earlier, Gu Zi felt angry, but she also saw it as a good thing. Su Shen was a cold person who didn’t care about such things. He didn’t care whether people spoke well or ill of him.

In the past, no one in the family had spoken up for Su Shen, but today, she had said everything that needed to be said. In the future, if anyone wanted to slander the Su family and take advantage, they would have to think twice.

After breakfast, Su Bing and Su Li rode their bikes to school. Along the way, some villagers greeted them, but unlike before, the brothers did not respond politely. They chatted with each other as if they hadn’t seen the villagers, and rode away side by side.

After hearing their mother talk about the morning’s events, they realized that not a single villager had spoken up for their mother. They decided then and there that they needed to show some attitude.
