A Detestable Evil

Certainly, at this moment, the vicinity of the red-brick house was not only populated by the villagers of Little Lin Village. There were also people from Daqing Village and Chen Village. Like Gu Zi and her group, they had come to visit relatives.

The three villages were primarily made up of the Su family in Daqing Village, the Lin family in Little Lin Village, and the Chen family in Chen Village. The villages were close and had deep roots, with intermarriage and migration being common occurrences. Within these three villages, any three or four households could trace some familial or historical connection. It was perfectly normal for everyone to visit relatives during the New Year.

However, a portion of these people, upon seeing the Su family, especially when they saw Gu Zi, couldn't help but whisper amongst themselves. They looked at Gu Zi as if she were some detestable villain, their eyes filled with hostility, as if they wished they could tear her apart.
