Gu Zi served Su Shen a piece of stewed chicken, and said, "I'm not worried about them causing trouble for me. What I'm afraid of is that they might continue to target the pig farm. You should be extra vigilant, and I will also keep an eye out. If anything happens, I will have someone inform you."
After dinner, Su Shen left the house. The two boys had books to read and skills to practice. Gu Zi and Su Jing were left to clean up the kitchen. Su Jing recalled the incident that afternoon when a few women had tried to provoke her. "I just remembered something after hearing what you discussed with my brother. This afternoon, some people from Chen Village came to provoke me, but I dealt with them."
Gu Zi responded, "I just heard from Su Bing. You did well. They might have been trying to use you against the Su family. Since Su Shen refused to cooperate with them, they won't easily give up."
