"What are you talking about?" Xu couldn't understand the meaning of his daughter's words for a while.

"Mother, are you never able to forget your father in this life?" Gu Baoying couldn't help but ask again.

"That's your father, how could I forget?"

"But what if I want a stepfather?"

"Bao Ying! You are a little girl, how can you talk nonsense? Who am I in the family? Besides, your father is still waiting for me to join him underground! In the future, you are not allowed to say such things again! At this time, Xu finally understood what her daughter meant by this, her face was red and white, and she didn't know whether she was ashamed or angry.

"Alas, if you don't say it, you won't say it...... I was just...... I just think about it alone, I just think that Li Zheng is really good to our family, he is good to me, good to you, good to the eldest brother, and even good to Zhiyan. When Gu Baoying saw her so excited, how could she dare to say anything more?

After saying these words, he packed up the dishes and chopsticks and went to the stove to work.

Xu sat there alone, thinking about his daughter's words, and thinking about his husband, he couldn't help but complain a little about his daughter that she forgot her father so quickly.

After thinking about it for a while, I silently shed tears again.

If the husband knew his favorite daughter underground, and now he was thinking about finding a stepfather to take his place, would he be sad and sad?

Xu thought so, he really wronged Gu Baoying.

After all, she is a time traveler, how much affection can she have for the father she has never met? What she feels at the moment is naturally only the kindness of the people around her, which is real.

However, after this time, Xu's attitude towards Jiang Zhen was obviously much colder.

At first, it was just a lack of talk.

Later, she simply said directly that Jiang Zhen would not send anything to her family in the future, and her mother and daughter couldn't stand it.

Jiang Zhen is a transparent person, as soon as he heard this, he immediately understood that the Xu family might have noticed something, and bluntly rejected him, he was not the kind of person who would pester others, and he simply stopped coming to the Gu family after that, if he brought anything to eat and play for Baoying, let Jiang Chao send it over.

Gu Baoying felt helpless about Xu's stubbornness, she was so delicate, wouldn't it be good to find a man who loved her?

However, since the Xu family is unwilling to be with Jiang Zhen, she, as a daughter, has to take on the burden of the family.

"Mother, I want to clean up the house, I will live in a room with you, let the eldest brother and Zhiyan move out of the west wing, and live in the Xili house where they live now, the west wing is vacated, I want to open a medical clinic in the village, so that I can earn some money, and return to him the few taels of silver owed to Uncle Lizheng as soon as possible." On this day, after dinner, Gu Baoying did not rush to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, but sat down and discussed with the Xu family.

This was something she had planned for a long time.

In the nearby villages, there are no doctors, and only occasionally there are foot doctors.

Usually, if anyone has a disease, they can delay it, but if they can't delay it, they go to the county seat to see a doctor, but the medical center in the county town is expensive for consultation, and ordinary people can't afford this money at all.

If she opened a medical clinic in the village, she would naturally charge cheaper.

In this way, when her reputation spread, people in several villages came to her to see a doctor, and even if she only earned a little money each time, she could save a lot of money.

"Nope." However, as soon as she proposed it, Xu refused.

"Why?" Gu Baoying didn't understand.

"You are an innocent little lady, in a few years, you should talk about people, marry each other and teach children, how can you show up and open a hospital? How many in-laws are willing to have such a daughter-in-law? Besides, the status of the doctor lady has always been inferior, and her reputation is not very good. Xu wiped his mouth with an old handkerchief and said.

When Gu Baoying heard this, she didn't know whether she should be angry or laugh.

How did she almost forget that this was ancient?

In feudal society, the most taboo is that a woman from a good family shows up to do business, which is why the daughter of a merchant, no matter how much money she does, she can't marry a good family.

Even if a person can marry high and marry into the family of the eunuch, he must be picked by his mother-in-law.

Xu said this for her sake, which was not wrong, it was the instinct to love her daughter.

But the question is, what is the situation of their family now?

"Mother, I asked you to find me a stepfather, you don't want to, I want to open a medical clinic to make money, you say no, then our family doesn't have a little livelihood, what will we eat and drink in the future? You refused Uncle Lizheng's kindness and asked the family not to send anything in the future, but now the two taels of silver we spent and the food we ate were all sent by him, and if we don't make money, how can we return the money to him? You still said that you want me to marry, but I'm afraid I won't even be able to get a decent dowry, so how can I talk about marrying? Gu Baoying said lightly.

"I ......," of course Xu couldn't answer.

"Mother, I can rely on you for anything else, but this is what I want to do, if you don't agree, forget it, just don't interfere with me." Gu Baoying said, and got up to clean up the dishes and chopsticks.

She is just a time-traveler, not the real daughter of the Xu family.

To put it mildly, a woman like Xu is the type she dislikes the most in reality, to put it mildly, she has no ability, she can only rely on men to live, and she is weak and can't stand a little destruction.

is also a husband and a child......

She, as a modern woman, is the least fond of this kind of remarks!

The Xu family has someone to serve to eat and drink every day, but he doesn't have the slightest sense of crisis, presumably because he has been used to living such a day in the Gu family in the past, and he doesn't know how to manage his finances.

If it weren't for this, on the way to escape, she would have planned for herself and her daughter, leaving some money in her hand for future expenses, instead of being coaxed by the Yang family and spending all the money, so that the original owner later drank a bowl of wild vegetable soup because he was hungry.

Gu Baoying sighed.

Since Xu's mother is not angry, she has to fight for herself!

And the first time Xu was counted down by his daughter so mercilessly, he was naturally unhappy, but if you think about it carefully, what did her daughter say that was not the truth?

She understood that she was useless.

At night.

Gu Baoying brought Xu Shi footwashing water, and she was still sullen about the quarrel at dinner, so she only asked if the water temperature was appropriate, and then didn't speak again.

"Baoying, to open a medical center, do you still have to ask Li Zheng for help?" It was Xu who opened his mouth rarely, and took the initiative to mention it.

"Probably." Gu Baoying still replied briefly.

"What about you...... Why don't you call Li Zheng over tomorrow night, invite him to dinner, and ask what should be prepared? Xu pondered his daughter's mood and asked cautiously.

Hearing this, Gu Baoying raised her head.

Xu's is this soft gesture?

She wanted to laugh a little, so she simply couldn't bear it, and curled the corners of her mouth, but her tone was still serious: "Mother, you talked to your uncle like that before, so that people couldn't come over in the future, and now you have a request for someone, and you said that you want to invite people to dinner...... Mother, do you think Uncle Lizheng is so allowed to come and go as soon as you are summoned? ”

"Isn't it a little disrespectful for you to do this?"

"Baoying......" Xu covered his face in shame, "Mother knows it's wrong...... Then you go to buy meat and wine tomorrow, and my mother apologizes to him. ”
