He Dacang felt pity for his younger brother, unable to bear the mistreatment he suffered from the cloth shop owner. He wanted his father to plead with Gu Jinli about opening a shop in the county city to sell spices.
Village Chief He also felt pity for his second son, but said, "Today, with the incident at the Du Family, and remembering how the Gu Family was bullied when they first came to the village, we need to hurry away to avoid angering that girl. If she sees us, not only will your brother's request for spices be denied, but our family's livelihood could be cut off by her."
What kind of person is Gu Jinli? The kind that could wipe out your whole family when angered, and Village Chief He was afraid of that.
He Dacang had no choice but to follow his father.
He Jinseng had already become friends with Gu Jin'an, and wanted to say goodbye before leaving: "Grandpa, father, I'll go tell Good Brother An, and we'll meet at the entrance of the restaurant later."
