章 591: Unrecognized Kindness

The villagers were engaged in a heated discussion, their words painting Gu Zi in an increasingly negative light. Some, who had initially held a favorable opinion of her, found themselves wavering. Doubt crept into their voices as they questioned, "But she's always gotten along well with Aunt Zhang in our village. Aunt Zhang is a straightforward person. If Gu Zi were as malicious as you say, how could Aunt Zhang possibly approve of her?"

The conversation continued, with one villager chiming in, "She's just good at pretending. Aunt Zhang may be straightforward, but that makes her easy to manipulate, don't you know? I've also heard that she's planning to hold training classes in three villages, teaching everyone how to do business. She's even decided to start in Little Lin Village."
