days of being forced

On the way back, I saw a pheasant wandering outside from a long distance away. Gu Xingzhi didn't approach it for fear of disturbing it. He just picked up a stone from the ground. The sound of the stone rubbing against the air caused the pheasant to rise Be vigilant, a strong sense of crisis hits, and then it falls down.

Gu Xingzhi took the bottles and cans he brought up, and walked over to lift up the pheasant's tail. It was not light, and the feathers were beautifully grown. The blue and blue intersected around the neck, and there was a bright red circle above the eyes.

Entering the courtyard gate, Gu Xingzhi waved to Gu Ming who was reading at the window, the child put down the book and rushed over, Gu Xingzhi handed him the medicine powder, "Let your mother put this on your hair before going to bed, it can Get some more insecticides, then wrap your hair with a cloth, and wash your hair with this hair shampoo tomorrow when you get up, is it clear?"

Gu Ming held the jar with both hands, looked at him with dark eyes, and nodded obediently.

Seeing the child so obedient, Gu Xingzhi even liked his black and red face, "Okay, you go about your business, you are allowed to sleep on the bed tonight."

The child was very happy when he heard this, and ran away holding the jar.

Gu Xingzhi took the pheasant to the kitchen. It was dark and he couldn't see anything. Every household in the village cooked early, and it happened to be his mother's turn to cook today.Gu Xingzhi smiled slightly, and held the pheasant in front of Zhao Xiulan just like Gu Erlang offered treasures back then, "Mother, I just came across a pheasant on the way back."

A look of joy spread across Zhao Xiulan's face. She took the pheasant in surprise and tried the weight: "This guy is really heavy. It can be sold for a lot of money in the town."

Back then, her son hunted a wild boar from the mountains and sold a lot of it, but she couldn't get the wild boar to the town by herself, so she couldn't get any money from it, and the old lady took all the silver from the sale.But if she sells the pheasant, she can earn a few pennies.

"Mother." Gu Xingzhi yelled: "Let's not sell this pheasant. My son's legs are in need of mending. Besides, if we pay all the money for the sale, it won't be spent on us."

That's true. After cooking, I can eat a few more mouthfuls. Zhao Xiulan looked disappointed, "You said that it would be great if we could separate the family. You work hard every day, and all the money you earn is spent on your sister-in-law. And Dafang’s children spend a lot of time studying, and they don’t know when they will be making wedding clothes for others every day.”

In the early days, she and Gu Qingqing had a fierce quarrel, and she also mentioned a few words about separating the family in a roundabout way. The old lady disagreed, but Zhao Xiulan heard Gu Qingqing's girl privately urging the old lady to separate their second room. Zhao Xiulan felt that it would be a matter of time before the family was separated.

But how can the separation only separate her family? Isn't this telling the villagers that Zhao Xiulan is not filial!Sanfang only has two glutinous rice dumplings, but the son who was born is said to be able to study, and the old lady will definitely not give money to Sanfang to study.And the big house definitely doesn't want to divide, her eldest son spends money from his father in studying, and the old lady is also partial to the big house, so the big sister-in-law presumably only wants to marry Gu Qingqing as soon as possible.

Thinking about it this way, she was at a disadvantage, her son hadn't studied for two years, he did all the hard work, and all the money he earned went to work.

It's just that because of her son's return these days, she didn't have any conflicts with Gu Qingqing anymore, and she wanted to strike while the iron was hot, so Zhao Xiulan decided to accuse Sanghuai and say something to Gu Qingqing later, so that Gu Qingqing could hurry to the old lady's ear again. Urge about the separation.

Gu Xingzhi tentatively asked, "Mom, do you want to separate?"

Zhao Xiulan nodded, "Of course, at least you and your sister can have enough to eat, you have reached the age to marry a wife, and your sister should find someone else, I have to save some money for you Otherwise, the old lady will definitely send people away with two quilts, and that stubborn woman knows best, so she is reluctant to spend money on us."

After she finished speaking, she leaned closer to her son's ear and whispered: "I guess I can make it this time. I heard your sister-in-law urging your grandma to separate us."

Gu Xingzhi said in his heart, it can indeed be done, but after you left, they started to do business, and they lived a splendid life.You think back to the time when people let you go, one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven without anger.

Moreover, the future after the division of the family that he knew from Gu Erlang's memory was also a bit evil. It made Zhao Xiulan feel like she had lost her mind. It's not bad, and the whole family turned out to be miserable.

Gu Erlang's first wish is not to separate his family.

He pursed his lips and said, "Mother, can we not separate for now?"

Zhao Xiulan looked at him in surprise, "Why? What a great opportunity."

Gu Xingzhi began to make up nonsense, "I also overheard my sister muttering about some prescriptions. I reckoned that she must have gotten some valuable prescriptions. Mother didn't get along with her, so she wanted to get us away first. Otherwise You think, our second wife is the big head of the work, no matter how we think about it, they are taking advantage of it, why did she take the initiative to persuade the baby, there must be something wrong with it."

Zhao Xiulan slapped her thigh, that's right, Gu Qingqing, a girl who has always been considerate since she was a child, this time it's absolutely wrong!Maybe what she is holding is a big fish, the kind that can keep wealth and status for a lifetime.

She said angrily: "Okay, this is to guard against me. I have been married to the Gu family for more than 20 years and have worked for them. Now whenever something good happens, I will be pushed away. It's a good idea!"

"I just don't speak well. I haven't done a good job in these years?" This is also the reason why Gu Li tolerated Zhao Xiulan. There is really nothing to say about work.The more Zhao Xiulan thought about it, the angrier she became, "If she really wants to guard against it, it's better to guard against her good sister-in-law and great nephew, just to prevent me from being the ass, no matter how much family property is, it will be wiped out sooner or later."

Gu Xingzhi: "Mother, don't be angry, my son will be filial to you in the future, and earn you a lot of money back."

Zhao Xiulan smiled and touched her son's face. Gu Xingzhi lowered his head so that Zhao Xiulan could easily reach him, "You are the only one in our family who loves my mother."

"Speaking a few nice words is filial piety. I'll be a cripple in this life and still earn money. It's just a dream." A lukewarm female voice came from behind.

Gu Liqin came in to drink water, and after drinking the water, she went straight out without even looking at the two of them.

Zhao Xiulan's anger, which had finally calmed down, rose again. She clutched her aching chest, pointed at Gu Liqin, and said, "What did I do in my life to give birth to such a white-eyed, unfilial daughter."

Gu Liqin is Gu Erlang's biological younger sister, but this younger sister doesn't get along with his elder brother and mother Zhao Xiulan. The other party hasn't asked him a word since Gu Xingzhi came back two days ago. He is regarded as a trash by others. Gu Xingzhi is too lazy Talk to her.

Gu Xingzhi comforted Zhao Xiulan for a while before leaving the kitchen. According to Lin Yuan's description, she went to find a comb in her parents' house. The teeth on both sides of this thing are denser than a comb. Lin Yuan said that this can scrape away hidden hair of lice.

He fiddled with them for a while, and he found two. He crushed them with his feet in disgust, thinking that he would get some powder to kill them tonight, so as to avoid future troubles.

After he finished using it, he took the things to Gu Ming and told him to comb them well, not to do it on the table in the house, it looked disgusting, and he was not allowed to use the stool, lest he accidentally sit on it that day.In the end, Gu Ming had no choice but to run up a stone in the yard.

After washing his hands carefully with soap, Gu Xingzhi packed three plums in a small cloth bag and went to find Jiang Ning.

He found Jiang Ning in that wheat field, and the other party was sitting on the ground dejectedly, with his mouth pursed, Gu Xingzhi didn't see anyone else here.

Jiang Ning was wronged again because of his work. He still couldn't believe that he was not the child of his parents. He grew up in the Hou's mansion since he was a child. How could he not be the young master? It must be that woman who is deceiving people for her glory and wealth!He glanced at the direction of the village entrance, and after more than a year, his parents still hadn't come to pick him up.Thinking about not being able to eat until the field is cut today, Jiang Ning wanted to cry again.

He is already hungry now, and the food at home is not good at all.

When I was depressed, a big plum suddenly appeared in front of my eyes.

Jiang Ning looked up and instantly felt that he was saved, he exclaimed in surprise: "Gu Er, why are you here?"

Gu Xingzhi sat down beside him, and said bluntly: "I am your fiance, of course I am here to cultivate a relationship. Promise." He handed over the small cloth bag, "I brought it for you, eat it."

Jiang Ning confiscated anyone's things, he only asked those people to help with the work, because he really didn't want to do it, and he couldn't do it, and now he looked at the big plums, wanted to eat but felt that it was not good to take other people's things, so he The pair of peach-blossom eyes stared at Li Zi for a moment, and said insincerely: "This is not very good, you can take it back and eat it yourself."

Gu Xingzhi said: "It's okay, with our current relationship, you will marry me sooner or later, it's fine to eat now."

Jiang Ning said in his heart, but I don't want to marry you. He has been the young master of the Marquis Mansion for more than ten years. He really can't bear to let him marry a villager.

He doesn't intend to marry either.

Gu Xingzhi also knew that this beautiful young man in front of him was not going to marry him. In his previous life, Jiang Ning also told Gu Erlang the truth, and after being taken to the capital, he gave Gu Erlang a lot of money, thanking him for taking care of him. In the end, Gu Erlang There was an accident at home, and Gu Qingqing was a princess at that time, with a noble status, this young man still chose to help Gu Erlang.

This vain, squeamish young man has a kind heart.

Thinking of this, Gu Xingzhi's heart skipped a beat.
