Professor Gu's daily life in the countryside after his rebirth
Chapter 11 Quarrel (1)
Zhao Dani has always been impatient. The anger she felt when her neighbor mocked her in the field that morning completely erupted as soon as she entered the house.
When she saw Liu Xiaoxi who had walked in earlier than her, she could no longer suppress her anger.
"God damn it, it's already this late and you haven't cooked yet. Are you waiting for me to starve to death?"
Liu Xiaoxi, who had just finished washing the wild vegetables and was about to splash water in the basin, was stunned for a moment. Didn't she start cooking as soon as she got back? Why was the old lady so angry today?
Zhao Hongmei also heard about Liu Xiaoxi cutting grass for pigs this morning. She felt a little sour in her heart. She had told Gu Jun many times that she wanted to change to an easier job. Gu Jun always agreed verbally but never thought of a way to do it.
In contrast, Liu Xiaoxi went to cut grass for the pigs quietly.
As a daughter-in-law of the younger generation in the family, Zhao Hongmei felt that she had suffered a great loss. Now, seeing Liu Xiaoxi being scolded by Zhao Dani, she felt relieved.
Liu Xiaoxi wanted to retort, but then she thought that they would have to split up eventually, so it was better to have less trouble than more. A conflict at this time would only make things difficult for Gu Zhan, so she kept silent, poured the water, took the basin and went into the kitchen.
Seeing that Liu Xiaoxi didn't say anything, Zhao Dani intensified her anger: "Whose wife hasn't been pregnant before? Now that she's pregnant, she's acting like a spoiled brat and not working. Are you planning to leave the whole family to starve for you? I'm telling you, forget it."
Gu Zhan was halfway home after work when Zhao Baogen came to talk to him. He was delayed for a few minutes on the way. When he got home, he saw Zhao Dani standing in the middle of the yard with her hands on her hips, cursing.
After listening to a few sentences, he heard that he and Liu Xiaoxi were being scolded. Thinking about what would happen later, he endured it and said nothing. He put down his farm tools and went into the kitchen to help.
Seeing Gu Zhan coming back, Zhao Dani finally stopped talking. After all, Gu Zhan is now a favorite of Captain Zhao, and she still has some concerns in her heart.
For lunch, I had corn and sweet potato porridge, cornmeal buns, and a plate of wild vegetables.
After a busy morning, everyone is looking forward to lunch.
When the meal was served, everyone started to eat.
Zhao Dani saw Liu Xiaoxi holding the bowl and drinking porridge mouthful by mouthful, and she became furious. She reached out and snatched the bowl from Liu Xiaoxi's hand, and put it on the table with a "clang". Because of the strong force, the porridge in the bowl splashed onto the eight-immortals table.
Liu Xiaoxi was stunned for a moment, staring blankly at her empty palms, holding back her tears and remaining silent.
Zhao Dani's sudden action startled everyone. No one expected her to do this suddenly. The eating at the table suddenly stopped, and several pairs of eyes began to look back and forth between Zhao Dani and Gu Zhan.
Gu Dali looked at Zhao Dani with a sullen face: "What are you doing?"
"If you don't work, you don't eat. This family doesn't want idlers."
Gu Dali was just about to ask Gu Zhan if Liu Xiaoxi had really gone to cut grass for the pigs, but when he turned his head, he saw Gu Zhan's gloomy face, which made the words he wanted to ask stuck in his throat and he couldn't say anything.
Zhao Dani thought she had won and continued to attack Liu Xiaoxi. She stretched her neck to continue denouncing him, but unexpectedly, when she saw Gu Dali looking at her with eyes that were almost blazing with anger, she retracted her neck and sat back in her seat.
Gu Zhan, who had seen all of this, suddenly turned the topic to Gu Dali: "Old man, what do you say?"
As far as Gu Zhan could remember, he had never called Gu Dali "Grandpa". Perhaps he had called him that before, but after Gu Dali ignored him countless times, he stopped calling him that. Now, a lifetime had passed between them, so naturally he couldn't call him that anymore.
Gu Dali paused for a moment, then spoke in an old and tired voice, "Gu Zhan, why didn't you ask your family for permission before letting your wife cut grass for the pigs?"
Gu Zhan was almost laughing out of anger. He had thought of everything Gu Dali could say, except this sentence. Then Gu Zhan laughed at himself. It turned out that one should not take oneself too seriously.
Extremely disappointed, he calmed down instead. His pair of black eyes looked at everyone sitting around the table without any emotion, and finally returned his gaze to Gu Dali's face: "Well, let me tell you now, do you agree?"
Zhao Dani took the opportunity to say, "You wish for it. I have to feed you two ungrateful wolves with the food I worked so hard to earn."
Gu Zhan ignored Zhao Dani and looked at Gu Dali steadily.
Gu Dali was silent for a long time, and finally seemed to have made up his mind: "You also know that our family has little food."
The implication is that I disagree.
Gu Zhan turned his head and glanced at Liu Xiaoxi, whose eyes were red and she was trying hard to hold back tears. He then returned his gaze to Gu Dali: "Grandpa, this is quite boring, what do you think?"
Gu Dali also knew that Gu Zhan was disappointed in him.
But he also had his own concerns. His eldest son had long since turned into a pile of earth. Now that he was old, he relied on his youngest son to support him in his old age. Moreover, his youngest son was Zhao Dani's biological son. Therefore, no matter what, his position could only be infinitely close to Zhao Dani.
Seeing the silence of the old man, the head of the family, Gu Mancang felt a little proud in his heart. What could the eldest brother do? In the end, the family business would still be his.
He slowly drank the remaining few mouthfuls of porridge in the bowl, then slowly wiped his mouth before turning his gaze to Gu Zhan.
"Nephew, I'm not saying anything harsh on you today, but you're being a little immature. You have to know that you've grown up thanks to the care and support of your uncle, aunt, grandparents, and grandparents. We always thought you'd grow up and become sensible, but who knew... Alas!"
Gu Zhan ignored Gu Mancang's pretentious words and continued, "Anyway, I find it quite boring. How about this, old man? Let's split up the family and take my wife and me out. What do you think?"
Gu Dali didn't expect Gu Zhan to say such a thing. If they split up now, what would the villagers think?
Gu Dali is also a person who cares about his reputation. He has already become the topic of conversation among everyone after dinner and tea. If he wants to distribute Gu Zhandan now, won’t he be drowned in the spit of the people in Shanghe Village?
When Gu Mancang heard about the family division, his mind was in a mess. The current house was built by Gu Zhan's parents. Now that the family is dividing, how to divide the house is a problem. However, the couple has supported Gu Zhan for so many years, isn't it enough to pay for the house?
Thinking of this, he felt relieved.
But Zhao Dani was different. She had already considered these rooms her own property and had never thought of giving them to Gu Zhan. So she was the most confident person now: "Divide them. If we don't divide them today, I won't agree."
Gu Dali was in a dilemma and couldn't make a decision, but in the end, when Zhao Dani's fingers pinched his arm, he finally made a decision: "Then let's break up."
It's just a matter of giving away a grandson who doesn't do any work. I believe that after a long time, the villagers will know the true ins and outs of the relationship and won't cause much trouble.
