Gu family in the north, unitary time

Mother-in-law Gao is feeding chickens in the backyard, while the second daughter-in-law Wu and the third daughter-in-law Jiang are cooking dinner together in the stove room.

"Have you heard? The daughter-in-law chosen by Mrs. Li has failed again! Wu sat on a small pestle and peeled the radish, and said in a gloating tone.

Jiang Shi cut the vegetables steadily, and the expression on his face remained unchanged when he heard the words, and he said lightly: "Yes, I don't know much about this." ”

The Wu family didn't take her calm at all, her third brother and daughter-in-law were wooden, she didn't interact much with the women in the village, she was either busy working or busy working all day long, and the response she got when she spoke to her was tepid, and she didn't look interested, and she couldn't be suffocated several times.

But apart from Jiang's, there were few people in the family who could talk to her, and she could only share her newly heard rumors with her.

Therefore, even if Jiang's reply was mediocre and she couldn't give her the reaction she wanted, Wu was still very accustomed to it and continued: "This matter has spread all over the village, haven't you seen the ugly look on Mrs. Li's face, tsk." Anyway, Li Dazhu is almost twenty, right? If he doesn't marry again, others will wonder if there is something wrong with his body, no wonder Mrs. Li is in a hurry, isn't this a hot thing to put in someone's house? ”

Don't make that dark smile too obvious when you speak.

Jiang remained unmoved, and remained silent.

"However, I heard that she asked the matchmaker to take a fancy to a girl, and the girl's family is said to be very satisfied with Dr. Li's family. Wu was puzzled.

“…… What did Xu hear? ”

"It shouldn't be, I heard that the girl's mother's house is quite far away from our village, and there are no in-laws in our village, where can I hear about it?"

Jiang was silent again.

"If you want me to say, you deserve it!" Wu snorted, "As far as the medicine prescribed by their family is not much higher than the spirit of the pharmacy in the town, it is actually so much silver, it is simply falling into the eyes of money!" No wonder I can't find my daughter-in-law! ”

This has nothing to do with whether or not they can find a daughter-in-law, but the Wu family is willing to link the two things as a retribution for the Li family's bad things for doing too much.

Jiang Shi didn't take a stubble when he heard this, it was as transparent as air.

Wu was scolding happily, when he suddenly heard a sharp cry from his mother-in-law in the courtyard, and the two were stunned.

"Oh my treasure, what goddamn bastard beat you two like this!"

Wu and Jiang heard their mother-in-law's words and walked to the door of the stove room curiously, and their faces changed and changed.

"What's going on!" Wu couldn't wipe the things on his hands, and hurriedly came to Gu Dayong to check his injuries, and shouted loudly, "Dayong, you tell your mother, who did this!" Who bullied you? Mother went to him to settle accounts! ”

Wu's face was full of anger, her own son who was reluctant to beat was beaten like this by others, if she knew which little Wang Ba Lamb was beaten, she would have to fight back.

Gu Dayong's face was blue and purple, the corners of his mouth were broken and bloody, his clothes were dirty and messy, and he looked very embarrassed, which made the Wu family feel distressed.

"Second aunt, you don't know, it's ...... who beat people" Gu Haisheng was just about to sue the Wu family, but he was frightened by a fierce look from his second cousin, he moved his lips in a snort, lowered his head, and didn't dare to speak again.

"Who is it? Say it quickly! Who the hell is it! Wu Shi saw that he didn't say anything when he said half of it, and urged urgently.

Gao was also anxious to echo on the side.

Although Jiang Shi, who was standing on the side, was not as excited as Wu, he looked at his son with an embarrassed appearance, his clothes were stained with mud, and there were abrasions on his face, and her nails were about to dig into the flesh.

While restraining her emotions, she kept calm and said, "Ah Sheng, come here, let my mother see if you are injured." ”

After saying that, he beckoned to him, but his hand trembled slightly, and he couldn't find it if he didn't look closely.

"Auntie, it hurts." Gu Haisheng hurriedly ran to A-Niang's arms and leaned on her, and said with a look of grievance.

"Ah Sheng, you tell your mother well, who is the person who not only beat your second cousin but also you?" Jiang asked slowly.

Hearing this, the Gao clan and the Wu clan looked at Gu Haisheng in unison, waiting for him to come up with a name.

Gu Haisheng had the support of his mother, and he instantly had confidence in his heart, and he was about to say the three words Gu Changning, when Gu Dayong interrupted him at this time: "Grandma, Auntie, you don't care about this matter, this is our man's own business, we can handle it ourselves." ”

He didn't want the fact that he was beaten by Gu Changning to be publicized, in that case, how could he meet people in the village, he couldn't even beat a girl, the other party was still younger than him, and they were still two to one on their side, and it would be a shame to say it!

Gu Haisheng received his cousin's warning look again, he lowered his head, and his face was sullen and a little unconvinced.

Could it be that Gu Changning beat them up like that!

Wu couldn't understand her son's mind at all, she was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, desperately urging him to say the name: "Who bullied you, you tell A-Niang that A-Niang can get justice for you!" ”

Gao also looked at her eldest grandson distressedly, and said: "Don't be afraid, Dayong, there is a grandma to call the shots for you, even if you say it's okay, I think who dares to bully my precious grandson!" ”

Gu Dayong shook his head, pulled Gu Haisheng and said to them: "Auntie, grandma, I'll take Haisheng back to the house to take medicine first, in short, you just don't care about this matter." ”

"Why don't you tell who this kid is?" Wu looked at the back of his son's departure, frowned, and said in his heart, very puzzled.

"Okay, this matter Dayong said let you leave it alone, don't take the opportunity to be lazy here, don't hurry up and cook! It's going to be dark! I don't know what our old Gu family has done, and I married two lazy women and came back......"

Gao's voice was still scolding dissatisfiedly, Wu pursed his lips and reluctantly returned to the stove room.

Jiang Shi also followed her back to the stove room, but a touch of gloom appeared on her always calm face at this time, and her expression looked a little calm, which was very different from her usual honest and wooden image, and she didn't look like a person at all.

Fortunately, she walked behind Wu, and Wu was unaware of the changes on her face, and the two of them were busy with their own division of labor as before.

And after Gu Dayong took Gu Haisheng back to the room to take the medicine, he sat aside and bowed his head silently, slightly gloomy.

"Second cousin, shall we forget it like this?" Gu Haisheng was still a little unhappy, and asked with a flat mouth.

"If you don't say it, you can't say it, why is there so much nonsense!" Gu Dayong said angrily, "If you let me know that you secretly told others, let my aunt also know, be careful of your skin, do you know?!" ”

Anyway, he can't let others know, otherwise where will he put his face!

As for the feud...... I can always find a chance to return it in the future!

Gu Dayong snorted in his heart.

“…… Oh. Gu Haisheng was still very aggrieved in his heart, but seeing that his second cousin was so angry, he didn't dare to say anything, so he had to accept it silently.

When the dinner was opened in the evening, Gu Song and Gu Quan came back from the field after finishing their work, and saw the two brothers with colors on their faces, Gu Song twisted his eyebrows and asked, and when he learned that they didn't win the fight with others, he glared at him and scolded, "It's not promising", so he didn't say anything more.

Who hasn't fought a few fights when he was a child, he used to come over like this, so he was not as nervous about Gu Dayong's lottery as Wu Shi's performance, he was more concerned about whether Gu Dayong won or not.

Now that he learned that he had lost the fight, he immediately pulled down his face and did not have a good color until he finished eating.

The person in charge of the Gao family is Lao/Ergu Song, who is very majestic at home, at the moment he has a black face at the dinner table and does not speak, and no one dares to open his head, Gu Haisheng saw that the second cousin could only bow his head and eat quietly, he also buried his face in the rice bowl, and tried to reduce his sense of existence.

After eating, Gu Song and the Gu Quan brothers went to the nearby forest, preparing to chop some firewood and come back to light the fire.

After the third daughter-in-law, Jiang, cleaned up the stove room, she just walked back to her house and took out the sewing basket to do embroidery, when she saw her daughter waiting for her inside.

"Auntie." Nine-year-old Gu Chuyu saw her come in and hurriedly shouted.

"What's wrong?" Jiang's honest face showed a bit of softness.

"Who hit my brother's face with the wound?"

Hearing her mention this, Jiang's face instantly became gloomy, walked to the side of the kang and sat down, shook his head and said, "I don't know, your brother didn't say it." ”

"Why?"

"Dayong won't let him speak."

"Brother Dayong won't let me say it? Who are the people who won him? Gu Chuyu sat down with his feet crossed, looked at Jiang Shi and said.

She knew that there were a few people in the village who didn't deal with Gu Dayong, and every time they met, they either quarreled or acted, if they lost to them, Gu Dayong might indeed be reluctant to say it.

The face problem of boys, especially boys of Gu Dayong's age, is even more desperate to save face.

"I think it should be, but it's not like it." Jiang Shi took an embroidery needle and said with thread on.

"Isn't it like?"

"According to Dayong's temper, if he lost to those few, he would have shouted back a long time ago, why is he so calm this time?" Jiang also doesn't understand.

Gu Chuyu nodded as if he didn't understand.

"Okay, let's not talk about this, do you remember the acupuncture method that A-Niang taught you some time ago?" Jiang Shi took the embroidery shed, embroidered an unfinished chrysanthemum/flower on it, and said, "You continue to embroider the stitch method that A-Niang taught you last time." ”

“…… Embroidery again? Gu Chuyu flattened his mouth, quite reluctant.

She has no talent for this, every time she either embroiders crookedly or her hands, she is now stunned when she looks at embroidery.

"Xiaoyu, embroidery is something that every girl's family has to learn, and it can even be said that it is used to distinguish you from others." Seeing this, Jiang didn't force her, but reasoned with her, "If you are better at embroidery than others, you will have a greater chance of marrying into a good family than others in the future, are you willing to marry a mud leg who can only farm and be covered in mud in the future?" ”

Gu Chuyu puffed out her cheeks, of course she was unwilling.

Jiang looked at his daughter with a smile, and the more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became.

Her appearance is above average among the women in the village, but because her facial features are honest and her personality is relatively quiet, she looks a little wooden and has no spirituality.

But Gu Chuyu is different from her, not only is her appearance slightly better than her, but her personality is not as introverted and quiet as her, the small melon seed has a pair of thin curved eyebrows and eyes on her face, Gu Pan Shenfei, Jiang has great hopes for her, hoping that she can marry a wealthy in-law, and she will never have to worry about making a living in the second half of her life.

Gu Chuyu didn't know what A-Niang was planning in her heart, she just knew that A-Niang wouldn't harm her, so even if she didn't like it anymore, as long as Jiang Shi made it clear to her, she would still do it.

Seeing that his daughter had figured it out, Jiang stroked her hair and began to teach her how to get needles seriously.

Jiang Shi felt a sense of nervousness inexplicably, she had heard that the Yang family was already teaching Gu Changning to take needles, and she would never let Xiaoyu lose to her!
