Traveling to ancient times with a sign-in system

Chapter 45 Filial piety or not, it has nothing to do with me

After hearing what her father said, Gu Tang grinned even more happily: "I know about this. I heard my mother say a few words before. I thought it was a joke, but now it seems to be true.

Grandma, don't worry, I will follow your rules! I swear in front of you today that if I give the money I earn to the government, my whole family will die miserably! "

As soon as these words were spoken, the yard suddenly became quiet.

Feng felt a surge of anger stuck in her chest, feeling stuffy and painful!

She looked at Gu Tang with a sinister look, as if she wanted to eat him alive!
Just as I was about to explode, my wife behind me suddenly coughed twice.

Feng paused, trying hard not to lose her temper.

Old Master Gu came out from behind Feng and was about to speak when he saw Gu Lianshan gently push Gu Tang, winking at her and scolding her in a pretended angry manner.

"You're just a kid, don't take your words lightly! How can you make a vow casually? Your grandma and grandpa are old. What if one day they become confused and shamelessly ask you for money? Will you give it to them or not?

If you give it to me, no matter who gets into trouble in the future, my little one will definitely blame your grandma and your grandpa! If you don’t give it to me, your grandma and your grandpa will definitely scold you for being unfilial!

Gu Tang was not happy with this: "I am the grandson, you and my uncle are still alive, it's not my place to talk about filial piety!

Besides, I'm a girl. As my grandma said, all the girls in my family are not from the Gu family. Sooner or later, they will marry into other families. So the word "filial piety" has no relevance to me.

Tsk tsk, what a thing to say!
Gu Lianshan secretly glanced at the old man, and his face darkened visibly.

His mother too, that old face is so distorted that it is unbearable to look at. Anyone who is timid will have a nightmare after just one look at it!

Clearing his throat, Gu Lianshan told Gu Tang to hurry back to the house. "It's so cold, go back and warm up. Unless the head of the family dies, the responsibility of being filial or not will never fall on you girls..."

The two elders of the Gu family were furious at their son's words. What did they mean by "the pillars of the family are all dead"? He himself was also the pillar of the family!

Is there anyone who curses himself like this?
Feng opened her mouth to curse, but was stopped by Mr. Gu again and pulled back to the main room.

Entering the main hall, Feng immediately turned her face away: "My son scolded me to death right in front of me! And you still want me to endure it?!"

"What can you do even if you can't bear it? If you make a fuss, your son will only become more alienated from you." Old Master Gu glanced at her.

Feng paused, and suddenly she was overwhelmed with grief, her eyes red.

Old Master Gu sighed: "I know you are angry, but even if you are angry, the logic behind my son's words is still true."

What he said just now was aimed at them, so no matter how angry he was, he couldn't say a word of rebuttal.

"Throughout history, filial piety has really had little to do with a girl's family, especially for families with boys. Being filial to their parents is entirely the responsibility of the boys!"

"Let alone a girl of our grandchildren's generation, even for our own daughter, filial piety has little to do with her."

"As the saying goes, 'A daughter once married is like spilled water.' It's been like this for thousands of years. You want to use filial piety to pressure Si Ya, but that won't work."

Feng wiped her eyes and said unwillingly, "So we're just going to let this go? Erya said that the sheep we caught yesterday was fat and big. It can definitely be sold for three taels of silver, not to mention the price!"

And that deer from earlier! Even with my limited knowledge, I know that a deer that size, still alive, could fetch at least a hundred taels if sent to that wealthy family!"

Hearing the figure his wife had given, Old Man Gu's breathing grew heavier, his eyelids drooping to hide the greed in his eyes, but he appeared unmoved. Feng added, "Let's not worry about the sheep, let's just talk about the deer. If we get this hundred taels of silver, it'll make a lot more money for our family."

Without saying anything else, I'll just use half to buy a small courtyard in Bei'an City and let the eldest son and his son move in. It's close to the academy there, so let Tianbao concentrate on studying hard for a few years. There's no need to worry about not getting a good academic degree, right?

What Feng could think of, Mr. Gu could also think of. The only obstacle was the second son's father and daughter.

"Didn't you hear what Lao Er just said? Lao Er did say that if you piss him off, he can go to the government office again!"

"Evil creature! If I had known he would be so unfilial now, I should have thrown him into the piss bucket and drowned him when I gave birth to him!" Feng cursed viciously with red eyes.

"Okay, let's leave this matter alone for now."

"No matter?" Feng's voice became louder again.

Old Master Gu glared at her and whispered, "The second son knows a lot of people. If he takes the lead in selling the deer, the price will only go up! Once they sell the deer, no matter who holds the money, it will eventually enter the Gu family. Then, will you still worry about not finding a chance to ask for the money?"

Feng was lost in thought, and soon understood what her husband meant.

The frustration in my heart immediately lessened a bit.

Outside the house, Gu Tang was also asking her father in a low voice.

"This isn't like the old couple's personality? Just leaving like that? Why does it feel a little creepy?"

Gu Lianshan nodded: "A barking dog is not scary, but a silent dog is scary!"

Gu Tang: ...No, the "dog" you're talking about is your parents! They're your dear ones!
"What are you looking at? Dad is just giving an example!" Gu Lianshan glanced at his daughter, turned his head and excitedly touched the deer.

Gu Tang: "...your analogy is so apt! I should have sent you to school. With your literary talent, becoming a juren or jinshi is a no-brainer!"

"Stop flattering your father! Don't I know my own worth? Hurry up and bring the deer into the house!"

"Bring it into the house?!" Gu Tang's eyes widened. "This deer needs to eat, drink, defecate and urinate! If we bring it into the house, will it be safe for people to live in?"

"Why can't I stay? In order to nourish you and Ping An, Dad bought a hen and raised it in his room. I can pick up the eggs as soon as they lay. Otherwise, you wouldn't even be able to eat the eggshells, let alone the eggs!"

Gu Tang paused. Well, she was quite touched, but it still didn’t work!
She handed the rope over and said, "Don't lead it into my room! If you want to lead it, lead it into your room!"

Gu Lianshan had no objection, and taking him into the house was exactly what he wanted.

He wouldn't feel comfortable keeping such a rare live deer in anyone else's house. He would only feel at ease if he kept it under his own nose.

After removing the sack from the deer's back and moving it to the west wing corridor, Gu Lianshan tried to pull the rope to make the deer follow him.

The docile moose did not become angry because of the change of people. It was still in a good mood and followed Gu Lianshan into the house.

Gu Tang followed them to the door, and seeing that the man and the deer were getting along well, he returned to the house with peace of mind.

After unlocking the door and dragging the sack from the corridor back into the house, Gu Tang habitually shouted outside: "Ping An! Come and help!"
