"Of course!" Gu Lao Er said, baring his teeth in a grin.
Suddenly, Huang Xiangwen elbowed him, saying, "What nonsense are you spouting?"
"Is it not true?" Gu Lao Er did not understand.
As if struck by a realization, he incredulously turned to look at Gu Youyou.
"Oh... Ah!" He enlightenedly exclaimed, "You... I was wondering why you were going on and on about it; it turns out it is for Erya and Sanya's share of the stuff."
"Alas..." Gu Lao Er sighed deeply, speaking to Gu Youyou in a sorrowful tone: "Why must you do this? The third brother actually killed your older brother and sister-in-law, and then sold you, even causing our father's death. They deserved such retribution. After the third brother was taken away by the government officials, I also drove them out. That was a matter that delighted everyone, and even the village head agreed with what I did."
He indeed knew how to find a righteous excuse for his own selfishness and ruthless cruelty.
