He Shi heard that it was very strange for them and their husbands to go to the big room, and when they arrived at the door and saw Gu Heyuan and Gu Hejie and his wife, she had bad thoughts in her heart.

Walking up to a few people, He said, "Big brother and sister-in-law, what do you say the eldest aunt wants us to do?" ”

Ma was also thinking about this question just now: "It should be a debt for peace!" ”

Recently, this incident has made it difficult for my father-in-law to sleep.

He's face suddenly turned unsightly: "What do we have to do with his debts?" You can't let us help pay off the debt. ”

If so, then she won't agree.

Gu Heyuan glanced at He Shi and said, "Don't worry about this, the eldest aunt will definitely not let us help Heping pay off the debt, it should be something else." ”

Hearing this determined tone, He Shi breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "That's good." ”

When the people in the second room of the Gu family arrived, they found that there were already many people standing in the living room.

Old Lady Gu sat in the first position on the left, she leaned back in her chair and squinted without speaking. The others didn't speak, and the hall was silent.

He usually chatters a lot, but he doesn't dare to say anything.

After a while, the mother-in-law replied that the third uncle and the fifth uncle were here.

Only then did Mrs. Gu open her eyes and walked outside to welcome the two uncles in.

After inviting the two elders to sit down, Old Lady Gu said to Mother Hua, "Go and call Yuan and Gu Heping in." ”

When Gu Heping came in, he saw a group of people in the living room, and a sense of unease appeared in his heart.

When Yuan saw Mrs. Gu, he took the lead: "Sister-in-law, peace is your son." He's in trouble right now, and you can't die without help. ”

Old Madam Gu didn't look at her, but looked around and said, "There are some things that have passed so many years, and I didn't want to mention them originally. But today's events have made me know that there are some things that I don't want to live a pure life for the rest of my life. ”

The third uncle coughed and said, "Brother Ning's daughter-in-law, what do you say?" ”

Old Lady Gu looked at Gu Heping and asked, "Did the Yuan family tell you that she gave birth to you in nine deaths, but I and your father snatched you as an heir?" After you were passed to the big house, she washed her face with tears all day long, and she was seriously ill because of this. Because she can't let go of the young you, she struggled several times and raised her for more than a year. ”

Yuan's pupils shrank, why would Tang know about her private words with Heping.

Gu Heping didn't expect Old Lady Gu to say this, and she was speechless.

Second Master Gu looked at Yuan with some disbelief and asked, "Brother and sister, do you really say this to peace?" ”

Yuan flatly denied it, and took the lead in claiming humanity: "Sister-in-law, today we are here to discuss the matter of helping peace pay off debts, what are you talking about these old things?" ”

Old Lady Gu smiled and said to Gu Heping: "Although it is meaningless, I still have to make this matter clear, I originally wanted to succeed and glory back then." He Rong is generous and good-tempered, and your second uncle and second aunt are also upright people, let He Rong succeed to the big house, he will definitely give us a pension. After Yuan knew my thoughts, he ran to your second aunt and said that I had a bad temperament and would abuse He Rong in the future, and said that I looked down on your second aunt and said that she was fake and high; On the other hand, he instigated the third child to come to the old man and praise you for being smart and cute. He also said that as long as you teach well, you will not only be able to inherit the family business in the future, but also make the Gu family go further. ”

After a pause, Mrs. Gu said again: "Your second aunt listened to Yuan's words, and she didn't agree to succeed Herong. No, I can only agree with your father to pass you on. ”

Gu Heping said disbelievingly: "Impossible. ”

"These second uncles and aunts are here, if you don't believe them, you can ask them."

Mao asked: "Sister-in-law, you really didn't tell outsiders that I was pretending to be a high-ranking person?" ”

This incident made Mao's throat like a fish in her throat, and she couldn't let go of it even after so many years.

Mrs. Gu asked rhetorically: "I talk about your rights and wrongs outside, what good is it for me to let others see the jokes?" ”

"Sister-in-law, why didn't you explain it to me if you didn't say it."

Mrs. Gu felt that Mao's IQ was worried: "Are these things true that you don't think about it yourself?" Besides, you didn't come to ask me back then, how can I explain it to you? ”

Mao's face flushed. When she heard what Yuan said, she believed it, and then shouted that she would not pass her son to the big house if she died.

Gu Heping looked at Yuan and asked, "Mother, is what Mother said true?" ”

Yuan naturally denied it.

Seeing this, Gu Heyuan said: "Peace, the eldest aunt really wanted to succeed and glory back then. My father agreed and persuaded my mother at that time, but somehow my mother later changed her mind, and finally my uncle succeeded you. ”

Gu Heyuan had already remembered things when he was six years old that year, and the succession was a major event, so he was very impressed.

Mrs. Gu said: "When you go to the big house, the old man gave them two two shops on Dongping Street, 100 acres of paddy fields, plus 3,000 taels of silver. ”

When the third uncle and the fifth uncle heard this, they nodded and said, "We all testified about this at that time. ”

Old Madam Gu said, "If you don't believe it, I can show you the deed paper." ”

She was not at ease with Gu Laosan and the Yuan family, afraid that they would not admit it after they got something, so she asked for this contract to be set that day, and specially invited a few elders to testify. Among these people, only the third uncle and the fifth uncle are still alive.

Yuan Shi knew that he couldn't deny it, so he changed the topic: "If you don't want to pay off the debt to peace, just say it, what are you doing with all this?" ”

Old Lady Gu smiled and said, "The old man later secretly gave you a lot of things behind my back, and Gu Heping has thousands of taels of silver to honor you over the years." Gu Heping just owes more than 4,000 taels of silver, and you can pay it off for him. ”

A hint of panic flashed in Yuan's eyes, but she quickly calmed down: "You don't sow discord here. I want to have money to help peace pay off my debts early, and I still need to beg you. ”

After speaking, Yuan and Gu Heping said: "Heping, your father gave us some property back then, but it has been used up all these years. ”

Old Madam Gu smiled and said, "As far as I know, the two shops and a hundred acres of paddy fields on Sandongping Street are still in your name. These things sell for four or five thousand taels of silver, and it's still no problem. ”

After a pause, Old Lady Gu sneered, "But how did you do it?" Not to mention the 4,000 taels of liquidated damages, even if Gu Heping owes Boss Min, you are reluctant to help him pay back the more than 300 taels of silver, and those ruffians and hooligans come to harass them every day. ”

Gu Heping asked in a trembling voice, "Mother, is what my mother said true?" ”

Yuan knew that he couldn't deny this, so he could only say: "Peace, you are the heir of the big house, and all the property of the big house is yours." More than 4,000 taels of silver is just a matter of raising her hand, but for my mother, it is my reliance for the rest of my life. ”

Only with money in his hand can Gu Laosan be honest, and his son and daughter-in-law dare not be unfilial.

Old Lady Gu sneered: "Gu Heping, this is the mother who washes her face with tears every day for you." ”

Gu Heping's face turned pale in an instant.
