Quick travel: The poor little thing in the period novel strikes back

Gu Zhen was standing outside the yard. Although he didn't hear clearly what Gu Xiang was saying, he did hear his sister's voice.

Knowing that he and his sister were only separated by a wall, Gu Zhen was a little angry.

I don’t know what’s wrong with my sister. After getting married, does she not even intend to recognize her mother, brothers and sisters?

"A Xiang, Big Brother knows you can hear me."

"Our mother is dead, and I just asked you to go see her for the last time, why don't you go?"

"Is it because your family members don't allow you to come? Although you are a married daughter, you were born after ten months of pregnancy by our mother. You should go and burn incense."

Gu Zhen didn't control the volume of his voice at all. His mother was going to be buried tomorrow, and he had to give a clear answer to the Shi family and his own sister.

"The Shi family doesn't like funerals and don't want to come, and I won't force them, but your last name is Gu, or do you want to ignore your parents' home after you get married?"

Gu Zhen has been in a bad mood these days and dared not have too much ups and downs in his mood, for fear of affecting the two younger ones.

At this moment, because of the Shi family and his sister's evasive attitude, he felt angry and his eyes turned red.

In the courtyard, Gu Xiang had already been crying with tears streaming down her face, but she didn't dare go home to see her mother.

Ever since she learned that her mother had an accident, she had been in a state of panic all day long. At first, she was worried that her mother was sick and had passed away because she found out that she had taken all the food from the kitchen.

Later, I heard from my husband that the straw in the kitchen was on fire and my mother was suffocated by the thick smoke and could not be saved.

As soon as she heard it, she knew something was wrong. The fire in the kitchen was lit by her because she wanted to drink hot water, and it was she who put the straw there.

She was angry because her mother said that Shi Xiaoman's things all belonged to Shi Xiaoman, and that she, a married woman, was not allowed to covet Shi Xiaoman's things.

She was so angry that her mother favored Shi Xiaoman. She felt that the old saying was right: a daughter who is married off is like water spilled. Her last contribution to the family was to replace her eldest brother's wife. She was useless now and no one cared about her.

Gu Xiang completely forgot that it was she who took the initiative to propose the marriage exchange. Otherwise, with Gu Zhen's personality, he would never joke about his sister's lifelong event.

It was just that Gu Xiang herself was confused and had a big quarrel with Gu's mother. She was also worried that she would be embarrassed in front of her mother-in-law if she didn't get anything back.

He took all the cakes in the kitchen and left without thinking whether these were food for the Gu family for the next few days.

"Gu Xiang, open the door for me. Don't think that you can stop this matter today just by hiding in there and not making any noise."

Gu Zhen was really heartbroken. He had said it so clearly, but his sister didn't say a word. He was so angry that he kicked the door several times.

Along with the sound of "bang bang bang bang" someone kicking the door, there was a woman's scream. Gu Zhen knew who it was, so he pushed harder with his feet.

The distant door of the Shi family was finally kicked open by Gu Zhen. As soon as the door opened, he met the sight of his sister who was hiding behind Shi Jiacheng.

"Gu Xiang, do you still want this family, your elder brother and your younger sister-in-law?"

"Give me a definite answer. If you don't want it, I will treat you as an extra in the Gu family."

Gu Xiang is now in a dilemma. She is afraid that her eldest brother will know that she was the one who killed their mother. She doesn't want to go to jail because she didn't do it on purpose.

Moreover, she feels guilty and dares not to go to see her mother. She has been having nightmares recently. Why can't her brother understand her?

She knew how important her parents' family was to a married daughter, and her parents' family was the foundation of her daughter's family.

But now that Gu Zhen has said it so clearly, she began to weigh her parents' home in her heart. She heard that her eldest brother usually doesn't let his sister-in-law go to the fields, and her brother's wife is still young. If her sister-in-law gets pregnant in the future, her parents' home will probably have more troubles.

Who knows, when he needs money in the future, he might have to ask her for help. She looked up at her eldest brother's red eyes, trembled with fear, and simply hid behind her man again.

Finally, she spoke with a trembling voice under everyone's gaze.

"Brother, I'm a new mother. I've only been married for two months and there's already a funeral in my parents' house. This isn't very auspicious, so I won't go. And who knows, maybe I'm pregnant and it hasn't been found out yet? It wouldn't be good if it clashes with my mother."

No matter how high-sounding Gu Xiang's words were, Gu Zhen also understood what Gu Xiang meant. This older sister was raised in vain by the Gu family, and her parents loved her in vain.

"Okay, since you don't want to, don't go back to the Gu family in the future. I will pretend that there is no married girl like you in the Gu family."

Gu Zhen's heart was completely cold towards his older sister. Without even looking at Gu Xiang, he turned around and prepared to leave around the crowd.

But after taking just two steps, everything in front of his eyes went dark.

Accompanied by the exclamations of the onlookers, Gu Zhen fell directly to the ground.

"Oh my god, this girl from the Gu family made her eldest brother faint from anger."

I don't know if it was the aunt who was watching who shouted, but Gu Xiang and Shi Jiacheng's faces turned very bad, but because they felt guilty, neither of them refuted.

Instead, it was Shi's mother, who had been hiding in the house, who was worried that Gu Zhen would hold it against them for eating the Gu family's pie and would make them spit it out.

So even though Gu Zhen made so much noise that people from the neighbors came out, she just peeked out through the crack in the door.

Now, when he heard what the onlookers were shouting, he was afraid that he was being blackmailed, so he rushed out of the house in a hurry.

"Who is this little jerk who is so despicable? Believe it or not, if you keep barking at me, I will tear your mouth apart right now."

"The eldest son of the Gu family is in poor health and fainted at the door of my mother's house. He still wants to rely on our family. He is simply dreaming!"

Although Shi's mother was not young, she had been working in the fields for many years and her hands and feet were very nimble. She rushed to the door and closed it.

She kept mumbling dirty words, and even with the gate closed, the villagers watching could still hear them clearly.

It's nothing more than saying that the Gu family is shameless. There is a funeral at home, but they are still spreading such unlucky things everywhere, obviously trying to bring bad luck to her family.
