Gu Zi addressed the crowd, “What my mother said is exactly what I wanted to express. Whether you believe it or not is not important to me. I don’t need your apologies. Now, disperse.”

She had been puzzled earlier by the woman who had been opposing her. The woman seemed vaguely familiar, but Gu Zi couldn’t recall where she had seen her before. Now that she knew the woman was Zhu Ling, her aunt’s cousin, it all made sense. No wonder she looked familiar.

However, who instigated the crowd was irrelevant. The mob had been unruly, even blocking her from her own home. She saw clearly that these people were not worth her time.

Upon hearing Gu Zi’s words, Su Ming’s heart sank, his face turning pale. Although he knew there was no hope, he couldn’t help but try to salvage the situation. He said to Gu Zi, “Mrs. Su, I mishandled this situation. I should have made a public statement earlier. Please, consider…”

Gu Zi looked at him, her gaze deep and respectful. She could see that Su Ming was a good village chief who genuinely wanted to improve the villagers’ lives. Unfortunately, she, Gu Zi, would never help a group of unworthy people for the sake of one deserving individual.

She was not a saint. She couldn’t burn herself to light up others’ lives without expecting anything in return. She had thought about it from the beginning. Teaching people to do business often resulted in the teacher starving while the students thrived. Especially when dealing with people of low cognition, like these villagers. Expecting gratitude from them was futile. Instead, she might inexplicably gain many enemies.

Now, she was even more determined. She would not take on this task. She told the village chief, “Actually, I plan to continue my studies. I’m sorry, but I simply don’t have the time to run a training class. Mr. Village Chief, you’ll have to find someone else. There’s no need for further discussion.”

Unable to stop the village chief, they could only plead with Gu Zi and the Lin family. Their attitudes had completely changed, and they were saying all the right things. They were just short of kneeling down and begging for forgiveness.

An Yun, holding her daughter’s hand, intended to go inside. She said to the crowd, “Yes, I’ve been married here for many years. Yet, none of you ever trusted me. You doubted my daughter, and now you’re begging her for help. Don’t you feel ashamed? Stop talking. Let’s go. We just want to have a peaceful new year and spend time together.”

An Yun and Gu Zi entered the house. Su Shen, with a cold expression, said, “I’ve been very polite to all of you. Don’t disturb my family’s life anymore. Otherwise, I believe, a single decision from me could make your lives very uncomfortable.”

Su Shen’s words were harsh, silencing the crowd. They had always said that Su Shen’s wealth didn’t benefit them, but in reality, they were enjoying the benefits brought by the pig farm. They took it for granted. If Su Shen decided to be less considerate, they would indeed have sleepless nights.
