The pretty widow is addicted to money, and the little wolfdog asks for a hug

Gu Qinghuai was holding a bundle of ropes and an axe. She had used 290 points to buy the axe from the system, and now there were only 3 points left in the system.

Qi Yuanshuo took an axe and the two of them went into the mountains one after the other.

At the foot of the mountain, I met Li Tao who was digging wild vegetables.

Li Tao's eyes glanced between the two of them.

If Qi Yuanshuo hadn't been following Gu Qinghuai four or five meters away, maintaining an absolute distance to avoid suspicion.

Li Tao immediately showed an expression as if she had caught someone committing adultery.

She seemed to have forgotten the unpleasantness she had with Gu Qinghuai a few days ago. She still had a shameless face and smiled warmly, "Xiaohuai, are you going into the mountains? Who is this little brother? He's so handsome."

Gu Qinghuai was too lazy to play along with her, and said coldly: "Li Tao, do you have amnesia? Didn't I say a few days ago that from now on, our two families will either be enemies or strangers.

Pretending to smile all day long but stabbing someone in the back, isn't that interesting?

The three-day deadline has come. You must pay back the betrothal money you owe to my elder brother today! Otherwise, I will go to the county town tomorrow and collect the debt from your daughter's in-laws' carpenter shop!"

The smile on Li Tao's face could no longer be maintained and her cheeks twitched with anger.

She snorted coldly, took out a piece of paper from the small cloth bag at her waist, and said proudly: "Gu Qinghuai, I have already returned the betrothal money to your Gu family, here is the receipt!"

Gu Qinghuai immediately thought of which Gu family Li Tao had returned the money to.

This old green tea girl wants her to have another fight with the Gu family's old house and use the Gu family's old house to bully her.

Wow, what a nice thought!

Gu Qinghuai sneered: "When did you pay it back? Our Gu Laosi family didn't see a cent!"

"I have returned it to your grandmother Liu Damai. It is only natural for me to return the grandson's betrothal money to the elders in the family," Li Tao's face was full of gloating, and she looked like she was waiting to see a good show.

This method was thought up by her Chun Wei. It not only paid back the betrothal money to the Gu family, but also prevented Gu Qinghuai from getting the money. Want to get the money? Then go to the Gu family's old house and make trouble!

Liu Damai is a stingy person who is always willing to take the money out of her hands. Once the money is in her hands, it is difficult for her to take it out again.

Gu Qinghuai raised his voice and scolded, "Li Tao, you are not only forgetful, but also blind and deaf. Everyone in Tuniu Village knows that my family has nothing to do with Liu Damai's family. You can give them the betrothal money, but I won't recognize it! Anyway, if the betrothal money doesn't reach my family today, I will go to Li Chunwei's in-laws' house to ask for it tomorrow. If you don't believe me, just wait and see!"

After saying that, he called Xiao Shitou and walked towards the depths of the forest.

Li Tao's face was slightly stiff and she felt a little uneasy.

This young widow wouldn’t really dare to go to Chunwei’s in-laws’ house to cause trouble, right?

If she dared to make trouble, she would really fall out with the Li family.

With something on her mind, Li Tao carried a bamboo basket and walked quickly home.

Li Tao's three sons and two daughters are not diligent.

But because the whole family is scheming, used to speaking the right words to different people, and very good at coaxing people into making money, the Li family is one of the richest families in Tuniu Village.

There are three blue brick and tile houses in the house, and several earthen brick houses, and the courtyard wall is also high.

Li Tao walked into the yard. Her three sons had already returned from the fields, but her two daughters-in-law were nowhere to be seen. They must still be in the fields.

The little daughter is washing clothes at home.

It was a very hot day. The sun was unbearable in the afternoon.

The men in the Li family got off work early.

Li Tao put down the bamboo basket and quickly told Gu Qinghuai about what happened just now.

The second son, Li Chunsheng, said, "Mom, I've told you long ago that the third girl from the Gu family has changed and is not so easy to bully anymore, but you just don't believe me."

The eldest brother, Li Chunxi, showed disdain on his face. "She is just a little widow, helpless, how powerful can she be? Anyway, our family has already returned the betrothal gifts to the Gu family. If she dares to cause trouble, we will not tolerate it."

Li Dayong, the man of the Li Tao family, took a puff of his pipe and squinted his eyes and said, "Chunxi is right. We in the Li family are not afraid of her making trouble. If she wants to suffer the consequences, she won't dare to be so rampant."

Before, when Gu Laosi was not stupid, he still had some fear. But now that Gu Laosi's family is composed of women and children, and there is no man to support the family, he is not afraid anymore.

The 13-year-old Li Chunmei wrung out the clothes in her hands, pulled the corner of her mouth and said: "Mom, even if the little widow goes to my eldest sister's in-laws to make trouble, we are not afraid.

We have the receipt in our hands. We will show it to my eldest sister's mother-in-law's family. Then, we won't have to do anything. My eldest sister's mother-in-law, Mrs. Qiu, will not let her off!"

Li Dayong looked at his little daughter with appreciation and nodded with satisfaction, "Well, Chunmei has made progress."

Li Chunmei received praise from her father, raised her chin and smiled proudly.

Li Tao looked at the fourth child, "Chun Guang, what do you think?"

Li Chunguang lay in the reclining chair and turned his head lazily, "Mom, I think you are all big fools. In my opinion, the betrothal money should not be returned at all. Even if it is not returned, what can the fourth Gu family do to us?"

He hasn't even gotten married yet, but his mother has already given away the money she earned. How stupid!

"Mother, aren't you afraid that she will go to your sister's in-laws' house to make trouble? Your sister has brought a lot of things home in the past few years, including more than ten taels of silver. We must embrace such a wealthy in-law family, right?" Li Tao poked Li Chunguang's forehead.

Li Chunmei glared at her fourth brother and said unhappily, "If the betrothal money is not returned, it will be difficult for me to get married in the future! It's all because of that cheap widow Gu Qinghuai, a shabby bitch. She insisted on spreading the news that the betrothal money was not returned. My sister has been her brother's fiancée for so many years in vain!"

"That's right! Widows are unlucky!" Li Tao echoed in a vicious voice.

Although her husband, eldest son and youngest daughter all said not to worry, Li Tao was still very uneasy and her brows kept twitching.

That bitch has changed her personality. She fought with the Gu family's old house a few days ago, and her fighting ability was not inferior to Guo Yueying.

In the wooded forests.

Gu Qinghuai selected a group of straight trees and tied them with grass stems as marks.

The trees used to build the straw hut cannot be too thick, as they will be difficult to slice, nor can they be too thin, as they will not be strong.

Gu Qinghuai picked up the axe and was about to chop down the tree when Xiao Shitou called him, "You sit aside and take a rest. You don't have to do anything. I'll do the chopping."

Gu Qinghuai raised his eyebrows, "What's wrong? Do you look down on me?"

After saying that, he swung the axe and chopped at the root of the tree. With just one hit, the tree fell down with a snap.

Qi Yuanshuo: ...

[Congratulations to the host for receiving 20 points of male admiration, with a total admiration score of 23 points]

Gu Qinghuai glanced at Xiao Shitou and was about to show off her cool tree-chopping pose to make Xiao Shitou admire her, but he turned around and started chopping trees, staying far away from her.

After that, the two men stopped talking and just kept chopping trees.

After cutting down the tree, cut off the branches on the main trunk, tie them together and take them home.

When carrying the tree, Qi Yuanshuo refused to let Gu Qinghuai interfere no matter what.

Gu Qinghuai felt that if the villagers saw her walking briskly with a bundle of wood on her back while pregnant, they would definitely think she was a monster, so she simply listened to Xiao Shitou and sat aside to watch over the wood.

Qi Yuanshuo ran several times before he finally moved all the wood back home.

Seeing that he was sweating profusely and his clothes were sticking to his body as if they were soaked in water, Gu Qinghuai felt a little sorry for him.

He is here to be a guard, not to be a farmhand.

Moreover, this farmhand was too hardworking. He did all the dirty and tiring work and was more willing to work than oxen and horses.

However, Gu Qinghuai decided that when he earned enough points in the future, he would buy Xiao Shitou some body-building pills and strength pills.

Just consider it as a thank you to him.
