My parents are both dead, I rely on fishing and farming to support my younger siblings

With the dim light, Old Mrs. Gu saw two white bodies intertwined together.

Gu Jingsheng was so absorbed in his work that he didn't notice Old Lady Gu coming in.

Niu Cuihua lay on the bed stupidly, allowing Gu Jingsheng to play with her.

From time to time, she let out a few moans of pleasure.

This gave Old Mrs. Gu, who had been frightened these days, a great fright.

She just couldn't understand why her husband could be such a person.

Her mind was blank at this moment. She picked up the broom beside the door and hit Gu Jingsheng.

Gu Jingsheng was hit on the head and finally woke up from his joy.

When he looked up, he saw Mrs. Gu’s face which had turned green with anger, and Gu Jingsheng was instantly frightened.

Niu Cuihua was also frightened by the broom and screamed, trying to get up and run away.

But Gu Jingsheng was pressing down on him and he couldn't get up.

"You old man, are you trying to get yourself killed? I'm not dead yet! How could you do such a thing?" Old Mrs. Gu couldn't help but burst into tears.

Although Niu Cuihua and Gu Jingsheng are not related by blood, this is really too ridiculous.

It's really against moral principles!

Isn’t Gu Jingsheng afraid that Gu Chuan will come and cause trouble for him?

Gu Jingsheng was stunned for a moment, and then he became angry at having his good thing interrupted.

He never thought that Mrs. Gu, who couldn't even get up for dinner today, would appear here at this moment.

Gu Jingsheng got up from Niu Cuihua and walked towards Old Lady Gu angrily.

"You damn old woman! It's all your fault. If you hadn't come up with some bad idea to chase those four bastards away, would I be worried about no one to take care of me when I'm old?" Gu Jingsheng said angrily.

Mrs. Gu had never seen Gu Jingsheng like this before, and she felt that he was possessed by a ghost.

His eyes were fixed on himself.

He even suspected whether Gu Jingsheng was really possessed by Gu Chuan.

Seeing Gu Jingsheng approaching her step by step, Old Lady Gu used all her strength to run away.

The speed at which he escaped doesn't seem like that of someone who has been hungry for several days.

Gu Jingsheng originally wanted to chase after Old Lady Gu again and beat her up.

Unexpectedly, Niu Cuihua, who was frightened by Old Lady Gu, jumped off the bed and hugged Gu Jingsheng tightly.

Gu Jingsheng felt the soft touch on his body, and decided to wait until he was done before dealing with Old Mrs. Gu.

(Gu Jingsheng was probably around 45 or 46 years old. Because people in ancient times got married early, he became a grandfather early.)

The same ambiguous sounds continued to be heard in Niu Cuihua's room.

Gu Shuwen still stared at the door indifferently. What was happening outside had nothing to do with him anymore.

When Gu Jingsheng finished and returned to his room, he found that Old Mrs. Gu had hanged herself on the beam.

This scared Gu Jingsheng.

He quickly ran over, put Mrs. Gu down, and carried her to the bed.

When Gu Jingsheng put his hand to feel the breath of old lady Gu, his hand instantly became cold. At this moment, old lady Gu was no longer alive.

Although he had estimated in his heart that this old woman might not live long.

But I never thought she would die like this.

He was so scared that he fell to the ground instantly. He didn't know what to do now.

Whenever there was a funeral in the village, the neighbors would help each other.

However, because of the incident involving Gu Lili and her brother, people in the village almost ignored him when they saw him.

He walked out of the door in a daze and unknowingly walked to the door of the village head's house.

At this moment, he was at a loss and the only thing he could think of was to ask the village head to help him.

He raised his hand and knocked on the door of the village head's house.

"Who!"

After a long while, the voice of the head of the village came from the house.

Gu Jingsheng squeezed out a few tears and cried, "It's me! Gu Jingsheng, the head of the village, something happened in my family, something happened!"

......

The next day, when Gu Lili was making breakfast, she saw Gu Sigou running in in a hurry.

"Sister, grandma, oh...no, Grandma Gu is dead!" Gu Sigou said breathlessly.

This morning, Gu Sigou went out to pick wild vegetables and happened to meet Tiedan's mother in the fields.

Tiedan's family and Gu Jingsheng's family are close to each other, so they knew about this situation.

When I saw Gu Sigou, I just said something, after all, they were once a family.

When Gu Lili heard the news, she was stunned for a moment.

Wasn’t this old lady Gu still alive and well in the mountains a few days ago?

How could he die suddenly?

However, this has nothing to do with me.

Gu Lili didn't respond and continued cooking.

She was not the real Gu Lili, so she felt no emotion at all about the passing of Old Lady Gu.

Instead, I feel somewhat relieved!

Gu Erniu, who had just returned from outside the door, also heard what happened. He just poured the water he had just brought back into the water tank with an expressionless face.

Gu Sigou felt as if he had said something wrong, so he lowered his head and said nothing.

"That damn old lady should have died long ago! She treated my mother like that, she should have been taken away by God long ago!" Gu Huanhuan's voice came from the shack.

The four siblings suffered so much anger and torture at the hands of Old Lady Gu.

At this moment, Gu Huanhuan also felt extremely relieved.

Gu Sigou responded quickly, "Third sister is right, that old lady is so bad!"

Gu Sigou is still young and doesn’t quite understand these principles.

However, he can also distinguish between good and bad.

The four siblings tacitly agreed not to mention the matter again. After dinner, they went back to work.

Gu Jingsheng's family didn't have much money because they had to support Gu Shuwen's studies.

Therefore, Mrs. Gu’s funeral was hastily concluded.

Gu Jingsheng didn't even make a coffin for her. He just wrapped her in a straw mat and buried her.

The three days passed very quickly, almost in the blink of an eye.

Gu Huanhuan’s foot is almost healed.

Today is the day to dig the foundation of the house, and the uncles and aunts in the village came early.

In the past few days, the brick and tile deliverymen have also brought their things here one after another.

When you speak on the first day, you should seek good luck.

Gu Lili had prepared a pot of sugar tea early on, and after the uncles drank it, they started to work.

The four siblings had breakfast and then started making candy.

This time, Gu Lili planned to open all the markets in the nearby towns, so she soaked the wheat she bought last time and let it sprout.

The four siblings have a heavy workload today.

Gu Huanhuan and Gu Sigou were not very strong, so they were responsible for making the fire.

Because there are two pots, it is just right for two people to make the fire.

Gu Lili and Gu Sigou were each responsible for one pot.

The few of them worked until it was almost dark before they finally boiled the syrup thoroughly.
