Quick Wear: The bad female supporting role, the male protagonist prefers

Chapter 43: The Silly Girl's Child-Raised Husband (5)

"Brother, you've done really well these years. You can even afford such a big house. It's very bright inside."

Gu Xingbang's tone was filled with unconcealable envy.

"I just returned to our village and saw that our old house was almost a pile of weeds and looked shaky. I thought I had found the wrong place. Fortunately, Aunt Twenty-one passed by and I asked her and found your current residence."

"But brother, if you have money to build a new house, why don't you tear down the old one and rebuild it?"

"The old house is much more lively than this."

Gu Xingbang felt deeply regretful, and even showed it on his face. If Gu Xingbang had built an old house, then they would have their own house to live in when they came back, and there would be no need to live under someone else's roof.

The old house was built by their father with a lifetime of hard work, so naturally they brothers would each get half. If Gu Xingguo built a new house there, of course he would get half too. What a pity!

Although Gu Tingyun's words just now made Gu Xingbang unhappy, he did not vent his anger on his brother whom he had not seen for many years, and continued to chat with Gu Xingbang enthusiastically.

"Although this end of the village is a bit far, our family is quite comfortable here."

There was a two-meter-deep pond near the old house. At that time, a young man slipped and fell into it and struggled for a long time before he was rescued. He vomited a lot of water and lay in bed for many days.

Gu Xingguo was worried that his daughter might accidentally fall into the pond when she went out to play. He also didn't want to keep his daughter trapped in the yard all day, as that would suffocate her. So he decided to build a house at the end of the village, not near the mountain or the water.

"It's quite comfortable. There's no stuffiness in the yard in the summer. Instead, there's a breeze from time to time that keeps you cool."

"Brother, I plan to stay at your house for the next few days. Once I take the kids and pull out the weeds at the old house, I'll move in with my family. I definitely won't bother you."

Gu Xingguo originally felt sorry for his younger brother's situation, and he was even more moved when he heard that his younger brother was so considerate of him as an older brother.

He patted Gu Xingbang's shoulder and said, "Why are you being so polite? We are brothers, you——"

"Boss," Lou Hele interrupted Gu Xingguo and brought up the last meat dish with a smile.

Gu Xingguo stopped talking and looked at Lou Hele, "What's wrong?"

"Tangtang is nagging Shao Rui over there, asking him to take her to the commune."

"It's so hot out here, Tangtang is getting too hot. Go and talk Tangtang down. After all, Tangtang listens to you as their father the most."

When Gu Xingguo heard the latter part of the sentence, the corners of his mouth curled up, he smiled apologetically at Gu Xingbang, and asked Lou Hele to entertain his brother on his behalf.

Seeing that the situation had reached a critical point, Gu Xingguo waved his hand and left. His face looked quite ugly. As expected, after not seeing him for many years, Gu Xingguo was still so irritating.

Lou Hele pretended to be curious and asked Gu Xingbang, "Xingbang, I just heard you tell your brother that you plan to move back to the old house with your family?"

"Yes, sister-in-law, it's not good for our family to disturb your brother and sister-in-law's home."

Gu Xingbang lowered his head, seeming to be a really honest man who was unwilling to take advantage of his brother and sister-in-law.

"The old house hasn't been occupied for years, so you'd better be careful when you move in," Lou Hele thought for them. "Go to the county town and buy some reinforcement materials for the house. Give it a good rest before moving in."

"There are also pots, pans, and furniture that need to be purchased. After so many years, the furniture left by Dad is probably no longer usable."

"Sister-in-law, we can only take one step at a time now. I..." Gu Xingbang smiled bitterly and was about to complain to Lou Hele, but was stopped by Lou Hele's words.

"If my family was well-off in the past, I could have bought you some things for the old house. But now, we just organized a wedding banquet for Tangtang, and we are in a tight spot right now. I don't have anything to give you."

"If you don't mind, Xingguo and I will go over and help you guys when you guys are renovating the old house."

"Don't mind, don't mind. It would be great if my brother and sister-in-law could come and help."

Gu Xingbang gritted his teeth as he spoke. This woman was determined to drive their family back to the old house and didn't want them to live in her house forever.

He originally wanted to use his tragic experience to soften his brother's heart and promised him that he could stay as long as he wanted, but Lou Hele's words blocked his way.

When Gu Xingguo went out to look for Gu Shutang, he saw her chatting animatedly with Gu Nianlu by the vegetable garden. Du Shaorui was standing behind them and couldn't get a word in.

Gu Xingguo shook his head. His daughter had someone to play with, so she must have forgotten about the quarrel they had before. He didn't intend to disturb them.

After all, his daughter didn't have many friends to play with, and Gu Nianlu was almost the only one willing to play with her often. He looked at Du Shaorui standing there like a pillar, which was very annoying, so he went over and found a reason to call Du Shaorui away.

Let his daughter have a good chat with Gu Nianlu. After all, Gu Nianlu has always disliked Du Shaorui. Whenever she sees him, she always rolls her eyes and says something sarcastic to him. If Du Shaorui stays any longer, he might quarrel with Gu Nianlu again.

Gu Xingguo thought of their previous quarrel and Gu Shutang's anxious look, so he quickly pulled Du Shaorui away.

After seeing Du Shaorui leave, Gu Nianlu's eyes lit up. She pulled Gu Shutang to her home and poured her a glass of sugar water. During this time, she accidentally saw the marks on Gu Shutang's collar, and her eyes turned red with heartache.

She cursed Du Shaorui, "Tangtang, you've suffered. Du Shaorui, this bastard, is really shameless. How could he have the guts to do that to you?"

Tangtang's mental state is only that of an eight or nine-year-old, and it's a pity that Du Shaorui had the heart to do that to her.

If she had come back a day or two earlier, she would have definitely found a way to ruin their marriage to prevent Du Shaorui from harming her innocent Tangtang.

Gu Nianlu was reborn. In her previous life, she closed her eyes with regret amid the cries of her children and grandchildren. When she opened her eyes, she returned to her girlhood, to the time when Tangtang was still fine.

As soon as she woke up, she went to find Gu Shutang, but unfortunately she was still a step too late. That bastard Du Shaorui still married Tangtang. It was even worse than in her previous life. He became husband and wife with Tangtang so much earlier than in her previous life.

"Sister Nianlu, my brother is very good to me."

Gu Nianlu looked at the innocent Gu Shutang in front of her, whose eyes were clear, and she lost her temper. She flicked Gu Shutang's forehead with her finger and said, "Tangtang, you are still young. You don't know the meaning of judging a person by his appearance but not his heart."

Seeing the complexity in Gu Shutang's eyes and the disappointment in her, Gu Shutang wanted to know even more what had happened. It seemed like her cousin was reborn.

Perhaps it was because of the training he had gone through in the previous two dimensions, Gu Shutang could now see the abnormal fluctuations of Gu Nianlu's soul through her skin, as if the mature her was slowly merging with the childish her.
