After Transmigration, She Sold Herself to a Man as a Wife

Chapter 25

Li Zhaodi had always been timid and easily scared. Since childhood, she had been afraid of her fierce cousin. Now, after being yelled at like that, her fear only intensified.

Considering that they were all from the same village, if she were to help Qian Momo, it would be seen as taking sides with an outsider against her fellow villagers. She simply didn't dare to help.

But if she didn't help, it would mean allowing outsiders to bully her own cousin. She watched coldly from the sidelines.

Neither helping nor not helping, at this moment, she truly regretted bringing Qian Momo here, who was now crying uncontrollably.

"Wife, are you okay?"

It was at this moment that Gu Jinchen hurriedly rushed over, perspiring because he had come in a hurry, and his eyes were filled with worry as he looked at Luo Ge.

Luo Ge shook her head. "I'm fine, no injuries."

Just squatting down and hitting the ground didn't hurt much. After all, she didn't suffer any losses.

"Second Young Master Gu, help me, quickly separate them!"

When Qian Momo, who was being surrounded, saw Gu Jinchen appear, her eyes instantly brightened. She deliberately softened her voice while calling for help, which made Luo Ge couldn't help but glance at her.

Gu Jinchen's face turned dark, and he didn't even spare a glance in Qian Momo's direction. He just carefully protected Luo Ge behind him, avoiding accidental injury.

"Newlyweds are different. Back then, I didn't stick to my wife like this. Hahaha."

It's not appropriate for men to intervene in women's fights. Anyway, he knew that his wife had the upper hand in numbers and wouldn't suffer any losses. The men were just watching from the sidelines.

Seeing Gu Jinchen protecting his wife like this, they couldn't help but laugh.

Gu Jinchen remained composed, while Luo Ge blushed even more.

"You little bitch!" Qian Momo's face looked extremely ugly, unable to help but curse.

Ma Feng Auntie became even more unyielding and grabbed her hair with one hand.

"You still dare to curse! You little bitch! Do you think I've been too gentle with you?"

Wang Sister-In-Law saw Gu Jinchen coming over and immediately squeezed into the crowd, and Luo Ge wanted to pull her but couldn't.

With no one helping, Qian Momo was simply no match for Auntie and the others. Soon, she was at a disadvantage, being suppressed and subjected to all sorts of verbal attacks.

"Pah! You think you can resist me with just that little bit of strength!"

"Thinking you're so arrogant, do you really think people from our Gu Family Village are easy to bully?"

"Let go of me! Let go of me!" Qian Momo had never endured such humiliation before. Her face turned red, and her voice became hoarse.

"Pah! If you ask me to let go, I'll let go? Quickly apologize to me and make amends." Auntie dared to lay hands on her, someone from their village. If she didn't make her suffer, her name wouldn't be Ma.

"You... you all... fine, fine! I apologize, okay?" Qian Momo was frustrated, but looking at the group of people around her, she could only grit her teeth and raise her voice to shout.

Only then did Auntie let go of her hand, but she still hadn't released her grip on Qian Momo's hand.

"Oh, is a simple apology enough? That push you gave me earlier was not light at all. My chest still hurts! Don't you think you should compensate me for the medical expenses?"

"?????" How could her push compare to the ruthless hands of these fierce women? She had to apologize and pay money on top of that?

"I... I don't have any money!" She gritted her teeth, determined not to give them a single cent.

Upon hearing this, Wang Sister-In-Law didn't hesitate and reached straight into her embrace.

"You're lying! I clearly felt a money pouch just now. After hitting someone, don't you think an apology is enough?" She admitted that she had some intentions of seeking revenge.

The bitterness of being falsely accused in the past was not easy to bear, and today she would seize the opportunity for some retaliation.

Sure enough, after a while, Wang Sister-In-Law pulled out a money pouch.

"Take a look! You said you didn't have any money. Could it be that this money pouch doesn't belong to you and it belongs to my sister Qian?" Wang Sister-In-Law's original surname was Qian, a common name for a girl from a rural family.

"You... despicable..." Qian Momo wanted to curse, but when she turned her head and saw the expressions of Wang Sister-In-Law and the others, she held back her words.

Ma Feng Auntie took the money pouch and glanced at it. Oh, there was a considerable amount of money inside, around two hundred wen.

"Well, it's quite a sum of money. Consider this as your compensation. Hurry up and leave. Don't come to our Gu Family Village barking like a stray dog anymore! Do you think every village belongs to your Qian Family Village?"

After taking the money pouch, Ma Feng Auntie got up to leave.

Qian Momo looked at the money pouch with a heartache. It was her hard-earned secret stash of money, intended for buying things in town later.

Seeing her standing still, Ma Feng Auntie's face darkened.

"Don't want to leave? Do you want me to loosen your bones for you?"

Qian Momo shrank her neck and quickly clumsily got up, running towards the village entrance. Li Zhaodi took a glance at the others and hurriedly chased after her.

"Your name is Qian Momo, right? I've remembered you. If you dare to come and cause trouble in our Gu Family Village again, I'll make sure to bring my black dog with me!"

Watching their figures, Ma Feng Auntie couldn't help but shout.

"Tsk." Luo Auntie listened to her words while holding her handkerchief, shaking her head with a smile.

With this, the matter was resolved.

They didn't show mercy with their actions, so Qian Momo probably wouldn't dare to come to their Gu Family Village again for the next two or three months.

They weren't afraid if Qian Momo came to argue. In this matter, Qian Momo was clearly in the wrong. She went to someone else's village and bullied them. Did they look like pushovers?

From their perspective, Qian Momo had no grounds to stand on.

After saying that, Ma Auntie turned her head and looked at Luo Ge, gently touching the money pouch, feeling somewhat reluctant.

"Here, take this silver. It's the compensation she gave you on behalf of the Gu family."

In reality, Luo Ge was the one who was truly bullied. Ma Feng Auntie intentionally provoked Qian Momo and let her push her, but she herself didn't feel any pain from it.

There was no other choice. The people of the Gu family were just protective. Even if someone had clearly crossed the line, they always had to find a reason to give it back.

Upon hearing this, Luo Ge blinked twice in confusion, quickly waved her hand, and shook her head.

"No need, no need. I'm fine. But just now, Aunties stood up for me, and they put in quite an effort. You can split this among yourselves; I don't need it."

She truly wasn't harmed, but as a young bride, she felt warm inside seeing Aunties stand up for her.

"Thank you, Aunties, for speaking up for me today." With that in mind, she bowed respectfully and thanked the Aunties.

Hearing Luo Ge's words, everyone was surprised. After all, it was a considerable sum of two hundred silver coins, and who wouldn't desire that?

However, the way Luo Ge put it was genuinely appealing, making them feel a bit embarrassed.

Their impression of Luo Ge was already favorable, and now it became even better.

"Come on, we're all of the same clan. No need to thank me. According to seniority, you should call me Fifth Auntie! It's only natural for the older ones to protect the younger ones, right?"

It was Ma Feng Auntie who said this in a straightforward manner. It was quite a coincidence that, apart from the Wang family, everyone witnessing this scene belonged to the Gu clan.

Luo Ge smiled upon hearing her words but resolutely refused to accept the money. She stood there looking fine, but the Aunties had engaged in a physical tussle with Qian Momo, who had a robust build, so they ended up with some bruises.

Their hair was disheveled, and they appeared quite disheveled.

They had stood up for her and done her a favor, so it wouldn't sit right with Luo Ge if she took the money directly.

In the end, Luo Auntie spoke up and gave her fifty coins to accept, while the rest was evenly divided among the Aunties.

This solution was just right, so she didn't say much more, and the Aunties were all delighted.

Originally, they had just wanted to join in the commotion and teach Qian Momo a lesson, but they hadn't expected to receive some silver coins as well.

Including Wang Sister-In-Law, who had joined in later, there were six people. With one hundred and fifty silver coins, each person got more than twenty coins, enough to buy a pound of meat and enjoy a good meal with some leftovers.

They also felt that Luo Ge was capable, and if they could help her a couple of times in the future, it wouldn't be a problem.

Although Wang Sister-In-Law had only joined in later, she had played a significant role in finding the silver coins. Moreover, her immediate instinct was to protect Luo Ge, which was heartwarming. Therefore, she naturally deserved a share.

"This daughter-in-law of the Second Son is truly clever and sensible." Even Ma Feng Auntie couldn't help but praise Luo Ge while going home with Luo Auntie.

Remembering the delicious chicken that Gu Jinchen had sent to their home last night, Luo Auntie nodded.

"Indeed, he's fortunate to have married into the Second Son's family."

That girl's cooking skills are genuinely excellent. Gu Er Lang is truly fortunate. Luo Auntie even felt a bit envious of her skills.
