Chapter Thirty-Eight: Releasing the News All Over the City, Coming to the Door to Advance by Retreating

"Did you hear that? Did you hear that? ”

"What?"

"This Miss Gu family had an affair with a wild man, eloped on the day of the wedding, and made the Li family restless."

"I heard that this Miss Gu is a disaster, first killed her father, and then killed her mother, on the day of marriage, the demon wind blew, and she was horrified, and she also wringed her hair in public at the birthday banquet of Old Man Gu and cursed her elders, maybe it was a monster."

"Hey, I remembered, it turned out to be her, hey, thanks to her running away with someone, otherwise my girl who works in the Li family doesn't know if something will happen!"

"Oh, Xiuyun, what are you going to buy again?"

Seeing Xiuyun carrying a small basket to buy, the stall owner's mother-in-law, who had just gathered together with great interest, stood up in a panic, put a handful of tasteless but still energetic light melon seeds in her hand into the outer quilt cloth pocket, raised a handful of shells, and wiped them twice on her body, and greeted her flatteringly.

Xiuyun was expressionless, and deliberately took out a silk silk that she usually didn't use much from her inner arms, held a corner against the tip of her nose, and frowned for no reason, full of disgust.

"Sister-in-law of the Wang family, what kind of smell do you have, it's like pig dung that has been stepped on for a few days."

"How so? Have it? ”

She deliberately sniffed around, raised her foot to check, and after finding nothing unusual, she turned around and sat there, and when she was done, she continued to work blindly for a while.

Everyone stared at the blue and white protruding dead fish eyes, and they didn't have a clue.

"Don't look for it, sister-in-law of the Wang family, if you have a bad mouth, you will speak less, take care of the stall business more, don't be yellow by then, it will be difficult for the family to live." Unlike our Gu family, the camel is bigger than the horse. No matter what, it's much better than a small door. ”

After Xiuyun finished speaking, she casually threw the two long melons she had just picked back into a pile, put away her silk handkerchief and lifted her chin and walked away.

She is also a person who has more things than less, and she has a quiet character, but following her own young lady, she is more and more aware that many times, some things will only suffer more if she endures them.

"A subordinate girl, in front of the neighbors, there is also a score of the master, ahh

"Oops, leave her alone!"

A few people stood up and pulled the sister-in-law of the Wang family to sit down, and the melon seeds knocked up again, and the Li family, the head of the family, was short, anyway, they all chatted about other people's bad things, regardless of whether it was true or not.

It doesn't matter if my life is hard or not, it doesn't matter if it's difficult or not, the important thing is that others can't live better and more comfortably than me.

It's like the melon seed skin that was sprayed from their mouths again and again, that vicious face, I am afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and the fake can also be said to be true, adding oil and vinegar, and the more you say it, the more evil it becomes, and you can't believe it.

Everywhere, public opinion can be a weapon.

People are also only willing to believe what they want to believe.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem, ......"

Old Man Gu's body is getting worse day by day, and his rapidly whitening and sparse hair braids all confirm his inability without exception.

The Gu family began to waft with a volatile and unique medicinal fragrance for a long time.

It stands to reason that the old man Gu is still sick and crooked on the collapse, but he doesn't want to stand on the patio again, and his spirit looks okay, and he looks at the ancient wood sparsely and obliquely.

It seems that like this autumn sun, I want to jump for a while and transfer some heat.

It's kind of a back-to-the-light.

The obscure sun filled the air, refracting the dust into a slightly choking gold dust, which rubbed into the eyes and became groggy.

"Master, the Li family is here."

Guifu came over and leaned forward slightly.

"Go and invite Miss Sun."

Old Man Gu retracted his gaze, and a maid helped him to the middle hall to meet the guests.

The person who came was Li Dongfu, the shopkeeper of Li.

Seeing that it was Old Man Gu who came out to greet him, Li Dongfu was polite.

"In-laws, how are your in-laws doing lately?"

"Thank you for your attention!"

Old Man Gu sat down with a group of maids, waved his hand, and asked people to watch the tea.

He doesn't have his usual arrogance, and he's quite kind, mainly because of his unsuccessful granddaughter, he knows that people come to reason, and he feels ashamed.

"To tell you the truth, we're here to apologize."

Old Man Gu was full of surprise.

"Well, how do you start talking about this?"

"Oh, it's my Li family who doesn't take good care of her, otherwise this Miss Sun is gentle and demure, how can she make trouble and run away on the night of the wedding, and now she won't return?"

Li Dongfu said on his face that it was his fault, but in fact, he was ashamed of the old man's face, blaming this Miss Gu for not having a tutor and not being honest.

"What's more, your young lady still forced my family to sign the letter of resignation? It's really ridiculous in the world, how can a woman force a man to sign? ”

"Ah, in-laws, in-laws, ......"

Old Man Gu really couldn't listen to it anymore, and stood up slightly excitedly, afraid of Li Dongfu's shoulder, who was getting more and more excited the more he talked.

I was also afraid of being embarrassed, so I turned around and swept in a deep voice to let everyone standing in the hall go out, and I sat down again and persuaded him with good words.

"Qiao'er is young and immature, so she may have run back while still thinking about her home."

"Coming back?"

"yes, I'll be back that night."

"The wind and rain outside the city are all over the city, and they say that they eloped with wild men, you listen, you listen, although I, Li Dongfu, am not a wealthy family, but the size can be regarded as having a head and a face, which makes our Li family's face where to rest."

Li Dongfu slapped himself in the face a few times as he spoke.

Old Man Gu stretched out his hand to stop him, took his hand and told him to calm down.

"Guifu, Miss Sun?"

Before he could finish speaking, Guifu led people to the central hall.

"Sir!"

Qiao'er lowered her eyebrows and saluted, she didn't know Li Dongfu yet, she didn't know at all, and now the two of them in this hall were discussing the issue that could determine her fate for the rest of her life.

"Qiao'er, you have been living at home for a long time, hurry up and go back with your husband, they are all married, what does it look like to stay in your mother's house all day long!"

As soon as Qiao'er heard this, she raised her head in a panic, looked up and down at the people sitting in the hall, and pointed with her trembling hands.

"You, didn't you sign a letter of resignation?"

"Presumptuous, you want to call your father, you don't follow the rules at all!"

Old Man Gu slapped the small table vigorously, Qiao'er saw this posture, reacted immediately, immediately stood up from the ground, turned his head and was about to run out of the door.

"I'm looking for my little aunt, little aunt!"

"The young lady and the young shopkeeper went out to collect the debts, and it will take a few days to return!"

How could Guifu let her mess around, her eyes were quick, and she restrained Qiao'er as soon as she stopped her waist.

"Let go of me! Let me go! I want a little aunt, I want to find a little aunt! ”

Qiao'er was still struggling, and her whole little face was twisted into a ball because she was too hard.

"What are you looking for her? She's a fool herself, what can she do to help you? ”

Old Man Gu shook his head and sighed, he felt that everything he did was for Qiao'er, but this Qiao'er was still so ignorant now.

"Qiao'er, be obedient, go to the Li family and be your young grandmother."

Old Man Gu approached, lovingly picked up Qiao'er's little face, and sorted out her one by one, because of the great resistance, the hair that had long been disobedient and ran out of her messy sideburns.

"I don't, I'm not going, I want to see the little aunt, the little aunt!"

"Smack!"

A crisp and resounding slap made the hall fall silent.

Qiao'er's sturdy slap, except for the face and the side of the neck, there are red marks.

Although he was sick, he got angry and beat people, but he still had a black hand.

"Take it away from your in-laws, you don't have to send it back in the future, the water spilled by the married daughter, I will not have this girl in the future!"

Old Man Gu was furious, and what he said was very harsh, which also made Qiao'er completely dead.

"This, this is not good......"

Li Dongfu felt that he was out of play, if the Gu family didn't recognize this granddaughter in the future, what was the point of the relatives he spent a lot of money marrying besides passing on the lineage?

"Oh, you don't have to say anything about your in-laws, our Gu family still admits it, it's just this ignorant girl, I can't discipline it, and I'll have to bother Shopkeeper Li more in the future."

Old man Gu saw that it was Li Dongfu who was a little more pleasant, and he deliberately bowed his hand politely.

"People, take it away. Guifu! ”

Old Man Gu gave him a look, and the housekeeper Guifu immediately handed Qiao'er into the hands of the Li family.

"I'm sorry, it was supposed to be our Gu family who sent people back, and I bothered Shopkeeper Li to run this trip personally."

In front of the gate of the Gu family, the Li family easily held the fluttering Qiao'er in their arms, feeling that there was no trace of weight.

She didn't move or speak, more like a delicate puppet with empty eyes.

"It's out of the way."

Li Dongfu smirked and pandered.

"The master said that Miss Sun will have to be educated by the shopkeeper Li in the future, and it should take a lot of effort."

A few big yellow croakers were quietly stuffed into Li Dongfu's sleeves, and as soon as he touched this familiar cold touch, Li Dongfu immediately smiled, this time this smile was absolutely heartfelt and heartfelt.

"Those rumors on the street, by the way, also trouble the elimination of Shopkeeper Li, after all, it is not good for both of us."

Guifu approached again, whispered a more request, and pulled back and forth between the two.

"Who is not afraid of death and dares to chew the root of our Gu family's tongue? When I deal with it tomorrow, tell him to talk nonsense again! ”

Li Dongfu pretended to be stupid and suddenly shouted indignant, as if he had nothing to do with the matter.

"Shopkeeper Li, our lord calls you a father-in-law to give you face, but if you always make some small moves behind your back, then don't blame me for not recognizing my family."

"Hehe, what are you butler talking about?"

Faced with Guifu's sudden change of face, Li Dongfu was a little sweaty, and his series of clever operations turned out to be in the eyes of this old man.

It seems that it is better to act more restrained.

"Gu Weijun, when will we go back?"

Qiao Jinxin has been restless since he went out, and he always felt that something was going to happen, especially just now. She felt her heart slam suddenly, as if she was being dragged hard, and it hurt for no reason.

"It's still long, I've only walked half the way, and I'm going back so soon?"

Gu Weijun also noticed her discomfort, and felt that he sat down and clasped her hands to comfort her.

"What's the matter? Too bumpy and motion sickness? ”
