The abandoned wife married into a wealthy family, and the scumbag father wailed every night

Xia Chunhua returned home cursing. As soon as she saw Old Lady Xia, she ran over and told her what she had seen and heard at Gu Xiucai's house today. With a face full of jealousy, she asked Old Lady Xia:

"Mother, did you say that all the beauties in the capital are dead? That so-and-so marquis actually fell in love with a widow like Gu Yingxue, and he doesn't think it's unlucky! Besides, she has two burdens with her. How much food will she need this year?"

Xia Chunhua spoke with deep sorrow, as if she was complaining for the marquis in the capital whom she had never met.

"Big brother's wife, you are becoming more and more outspoken! Yingxue is your fifth uncle's little daughter and your cousin. If I hear you say anything wrong about your cousin again, our Gu family will not tolerate a daughter-in-law like you who speaks without restraint!"

Gu Youcai was squatting in the corner smoking a pipe. When he heard Xia Chunhua's words, he was shocked at first. After the shock, he scolded Xia Chunhua harshly.

"Big brother, go to the town and call your second uncle back. Tell him that our Gu family has a new wife. Ask him to come back and discuss this matter."

"Second brother, call your third aunt back. Third brother, call your fourth aunt back. This is a great event that will bring honor to our Gu family! We need to think it over carefully!"

After scolding his eldest daughter-in-law, Gu Youcai immediately began to give instructions to his three sons.

"Dad, our second uncle has basically cut off contact with us since grandma passed away. Why are we going to look for him?"

Gu Dazhuang was a little confused.

Besides, seeing that Gu Xiucai's family has been getting more and more prosperous in recent years, their family has thought about easing the relationship with Gu Xiucai's family.

But every time I didn’t get into trouble!

To be honest, he was a little afraid of Gu Xiucai's cousins.

Gu Qingxi looks most like Gu Youcai. At this moment, he is silent and seems to be thinking about something.

Gu Yougen was ecstatic. Sister Yingxue had married the Marquis and was also granted an imperial decree. From now on, no one would dare to call her a little widow!

Yiyao and Yichen will also have a father. Even if he is not their biological father, they are still children with a father!

"What nonsense! Hurry up and go!"

Gu Youcai's eyes widened, and his face showed an unprecedented sternness.

Seeing him like this, Gu Dazhuang, Gu Qingxi and Gu Yougen didn't dare to say anything more and quickly set out to look for him.

When Gu Yougen passed by the village entrance, he looked into the yard of Gu Xiucai's house.

There were people inside and outside Gu Xiucai's house, and everyone seemed to be discussing something enthusiastically.

Gu Yougen took a look and after thinking about it, he walked towards Gu Xiucai's house.

When Gu Dazhuang and Gu Qingxi saw that he had gone to Gu Xiucai's house, they both curled their lips. Gu Dazhuang said indignantly:

"The third brother is the most cunning. I was wondering why he always likes to get close to us. It seems he wants to climb up the social ladder! Bah! Uncle Wu knows that he is very cunning and will definitely ignore him!"

Gu Dazhuang's face was full of jealousy, and he secretly regretted that when Gu Xiucai's family just returned to the village, he was afraid of being implicated by Gu Xiucai's family and never wanted to have anything to do with Gu Xiucai.

Later he found out that their family had built a large blue brick and tile house, and their lives were gradually getting better. He actually wanted to ease the relationship with his fifth uncle, but Gu Xiucai was always cold to him.

He thought that his fifth uncle's family was only slightly better off than those of ordinary farmers like them, and they often went up the mountain to dig wild vegetables to supplement the family income, so he didn't spend much time on his fifth uncle's family.

Who would have thought that his widow cousin would have such good fortune!

Gu Dazhuang regretted it so much that his intestines turned green!

"That's our fifth uncle, not just Gu Yougen's fifth uncle. Since the fifth uncle recognizes him, he won't disown us!"

Gu Qingxi looked at Gu Yougen's back with a gloomy look.

Gu Yougen came to the Gu family's yard and looked at Gu Xiucai who was surrounded by villagers. He walked over and whispered to Gu Xiucai:

"Uncle Wu, I have something to tell you."

Gu Xiucai glanced at Gu Yougen. This kid had been silently helping him with work within his ability since Gu Yougen returned to the village. Deep down in his heart, he actually no longer rejected this nephew.

It is true that good bamboo comes from bad bamboo shoots. His elder brother is so cunning and treacherous that he would not do anything without profit, but he gave birth to such a loving and loyal son.

But he really didn't want to have anything to do with Gu Youcai, so he was usually cold and indifferent to his nephew.

"What's the matter?"

Gu Yougen felt happy too as he saw Gu Xiucai looking obviously happier than ever before.

My fifth uncle never pays attention to my eldest brother, second brother, and other people in the family, but sometimes he would pay lukewarm attention to me.

"My father asked me, my eldest brother, and my second brother to go and invite my second uncle, as well as my third and fourth aunts, back to discuss the matter of Sister Yingxue."

Gu Yougen said with some concern.

"Humph! He still has his own ideas, but he never uses his cleverness in the right way!"

After hearing what Gu Yougen said, Gu Xiucai snorted coldly and turned away.

Gu Yougen looked at Gu Xiucai's back with a sad face. There were many times when he wished he was his fifth uncle's child. He really didn't have this idea just because his fifth uncle was rich.

He felt that his fifth uncle was really protective of his children and would never favor one child over another because he thought that the other child was more promising.

Sometimes he would even favor the weaker child, such as Yingxue.

If it were in my own home, I would have been thrown out by my parents long ago.

But over the years, Uncle Five has really taken good care of Sister Yingxue and her two children.

"Brother Ming, can you tell us what's going on? How did Yingxue suddenly become the wife of the Marquis's Mansion? She's also a first-rank imperial lady. Do we have to kneel down when we see her in the future?"

The villagers were extremely anxious and surrounded Gu Xiucai, insisting that he explain the matter to everyone.

"I can't tell you guys about this right now. Let's wait until Yingxue and Yubai return from the capital before we talk about it. It's getting late, so I won't keep you here. Please go home first. I'll treat you guys to a drink some other day!"

Gu Xiucai was a little absent-minded. His mind was in a mess. He didn't know what had happened to his daughter in the capital, nor did he know whether this imperial edict was a good thing or a bad thing for his daughter.

He really wasn't in the mood to deal with the villagers, so he just smiled and made a gesture to see them off.

The villagers were unwilling to comply and were about to pester him to say something, but Gu Dechang glared at them and yelled:

"It's almost dark, why don't you go home for dinner? You won't be able to work in the fields tomorrow!"

When the villagers heard this, they hurried home to eat and rest. After all, they all made a living from the fields, and the most important thing was to take care of the crops!

If you don’t get a good rest at night and don’t want to eat enough, you won’t be able to finish the work in the fields tomorrow!

Delaying one day of life means losing several grains of food next year. This is no joke!

"Gu Xiucai's family has many strong laborers, and their life is more prosperous than that of ordinary people. Now, they have suddenly become the superior people. Tsk tsk tsk tsk!"

"Not at all. Hey, how high of an official position does the Marquis hold?"

"Who knows? Anyway, I can definitely eat white steamed buns every day!"

A farmer carrying a hoe smacked his lips when he heard this.

The women in Gujia Village also had envious looks on their faces. In the past, they all thought that Gu Yingxue was a widow and was unlucky, so they were unwilling to make friends with her and secretly looked down on her in their hearts.

Who would have thought that she would suddenly become the high and mighty marquis's wife, and she regretted it so much that she beat her chest and stamped her feet!
