Chapter 2: Loss of Conscience
"Daddy, I'm thirsty." There was no teapot in this house, and when Gu Chuanhai heard this, he hurriedly brought the cool white from the outhouse to Gu Yunyao, and carefully watched Gu Yunyao drink it.
As soon as he finished drinking the water, Gu Yunyao's stomach was purring, Gu Chuanhai had just come back from the border pass, and he was also in a hurry, putting the tea bowl aside, Baba said to Gu Yunyao: "Dad, let's go slaughter rabbits and cook, Yaoyao, you wait." ”
After finishing speaking, he ran out of the house, but he heard Gu Chuanhai's footsteps wandering in the outhouse, followed by rummaging through the boxes and cabinets, it seemed that something was missing, Gu Chuanhai raised his feet and walked out of the house, Gu Yunyao wanted to go to the ground, and as soon as he stretched his legs, he saw that his thin legs and feet, compared with her own jade-like skin, I couldn't see it.
As soon as his toes touched the ground, he heard a commotion coming from the courtyard.
Gu Yunyao hurriedly walked to the window, opened the window a crack, the cold wind poured in, it was cold, Gu Chuanhai stood in the courtyard, his face was black and red, an old lady wearing a gray dress with bound feet, standing at the door of the upper room with a tiger face, Gu Yunyao couldn't help but take a few more glances at the wrapped little feet, this old lady's legs were like a disability, and the pestle was there.
This old lady is the Meng family, Gu Chuanhai's cheap mother.
Meng Shi's face was domineering, and his stubby fingers were about to poke Gu Chuanhai's face.
"Fourth, you have lost your conscience, why is your heart so black. Your father raised you, gave you food and clothing, your third brother went to school, endorsed books day and night, and his body and bones were going to be exhausted, didn't I just ask you for a hare with no capital? Why can't you give up? It's really not my own, your heart and liver don't have this home! ”
Gu Chuanhai's face turned black and red, and he said with a sigh: "Mother, that is what I gave to Yaoyao, what has the child lost weight?" That's all that is left with skin and bones. ”
Without waiting for Gu Chuanhai to finish speaking, Meng Shi interrupted directly, stared at Gu Chuanhai with gloomy eyes, and snorted fiercely. "Whew! You black-hearted, don't put gold on your house face, what kind of father and daughter are filial piety? ”
This farmer's house, the family is basically fenced with bamboo fences, at this time there is no food, and it is not a busy farm, suddenly surrounded by seven or eight people to watch the excitement, Meng is facing the gate, the tone is immediately a few degrees higher.
"I haven't settled accounts with her yet, you! disfigured and retired, not to mention the bad luck of the old Gu family, knowing that you were coming back, ran to jump into the pond, who is this pitiful to see? What's up? Raising her is also a revenge, she herself is an ugly star, she was withdrawn, she wanted to harm the reputation of the entire Gu family, and it was not happy to pull this big family with her, isn't it? ”
Meng Shi touched his mouth up and down, saying that Gu Yunyao was not a person inside and out, and he even poured dirty water on Gu Chuanhai.
Who would have thought that Gu Chuanhai would come back alive from the border pass? In that chaotic place, it is not easy to leave a whole corpse.
Using Gu Chuanhai to replace his own sons, Meng has been poked in the backbone in the past two years, finally everyone in this village has forgotten this stubble, Gu Chuanhai came back, this old matter was brought up again, her old daughter Gu Qing'er is fourteen years old, and she will soon be fifteen years old and will say goodbye, if she, a mother, carries the name of a poisonous woman, how dare a good person let Gu Qing'er enter the door?
And the old son has also reached the age of saying kiss, she has a bad reputation, so who is willing to marry her daughter to the old son?
But if Gu Chuanhai sat down in the name of unfilial piety and loss of conscience, Meng Shi would immediately turn over and sing.
Gu Chuanhai's face turned red and purple, and he wanted to refute but endured it.
Gu Yunyao saw everything in her eyes, and Gu Chuanhai's appearance was just two words - foolish filial piety.
In feudal society, there are only wrong children, no fault of the father, Gu Chuanhai was passed to the Meng family at the age of eight, and it is already a common thing to be subdued by the Meng family, even if he went to the border for three years, but the idea of foolishness and filial piety has been deeply rooted.
"It seems that in order to survive in this Great Cang Dynasty, this father must be reformed." As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Yunyao's stomach protested again, and she touched it, Meng's harsh treatment was completely abuse.
After Gu Yunyao left from Gu Chuanhai, don't say that she hadn't eaten meat, she hadn't eaten a normal meal, and she had leftovers of cold water every day, only the fifth uncle Gu Chuanzhao occasionally took out the bird's nest and secretly stuffed two of her when he roasted the bird's eggs, which was regarded as improving the food.
In Meng's eyes, Gu Yunyao's ability to live was her great favor, and after closing the window, Gu Yunyao carried her sick body out of the house.
"Milk, how can you say that about me and my father?" Gu Yunyao's thin figure appeared in the courtyard, which immediately attracted everyone's attention, Gu Chuanhai hurriedly went to his daughter's side, and looked at Gu Yunyao's sallow little face with yellow hair and was distressed.
When Meng Shi saw Gu Yunyao come out, he immediately walked over with his little feet, and raised his hand to beat, "You cheap hooves, dare to talk back?" Nothing big or small! ”
"Mother, Yaoyao has just woken up, what are you doing to embarrass the child? The child was withdrawn, because I had the wrong eyes to see the wrong person, and the fault was not Yaoyao. Gu Chuanhai grabbed Meng's raised hand and hurriedly stopped the mistake on his head, Meng glared at Gu Chuanhai with disgust, and took his hand back.
Gu Yunyao's heart warmed, in Yuetang, if she didn't learn her skills, she would be beaten, no one had ever felt sorry for herself, and this was the first time someone had protected her.
Gu Yunyao shrank behind Gu Chuanhai, looking straight at Meng's triangular eyes, raising her eyebrows.
"Milk, the sky is white, you can't wronged my father so much, isn't he filial? In order to fulfill the love of licking the calves of the whole milk, he sent himself to the border pass where he died, and gave his life to the milk to change your reputation, why did you open your eyes and talk nonsense? My dad is not your own, you can't bully people like this! ”
Which pot is not opened, which pot is mentioned, Meng Shi is going to be angry, and this girl has a lot of ability, she dares to talk back to her!
"You bitch, shut up! The old Gu family's style has been defeated by you, I pity you for not settling accounts with you, you still have a long ability, right! Meng Shi turned his head to Gu Chuanhai and persecuted: "Fourth, look, this is your daughter, did I bully you?" Do I still open my eyes and tell nonsense? Your girl's mouth is rented, and I'm choreographed here! ”
"I'm ......," Meng slapped in the face. I've lived a handful of years, and today I was wronged by a little girl! My face, the ancestral grave of the old Gu family was not buried, and such a cheap hoof was reincarnated! Eat and drink for nothing, and bury me! ”
Gu Chuanhai lowered his head, but he did not relax his protection of Gu Yunyao at all.
Outside the courtyard, I watched the lively villagers chattering.
"This old woman of the Gu family, her heart is really dark, Gu Laosi is the one who died once for her own sons, and she also raised Gu Laosi, no matter how big the favor is, it is still clean, Gu Laosi's father left so much land and now it's all planted by her sons?"
"But no, it's thirty acres of second-class paddy fields, Old Man Gu is still kind, he used to farm the land, went to eat, and left one percent of his savings for Gu Laosi to marry his daughter-in-law every year, and later married his daughter-in-law, so he saved the money for Gu Laosi and his daughter, this old woman, secretly reported Gu Laosi's name to the border, didn't she just want to occupy other people's property? Murder! ”
"Look at Gu Laosi's daughter, thin as a cat, this old woman is embarrassed to say that she is unlucky? Then Gu Yunyao's broken appearance was not caused by her? At the end of February, the snow just melted, and it rained again, and the soil was slippery at that time, even an adult did not dare to go up the mountain to collect firewood, so she forced the girl to go up the mountain, you don't know, the Qi family did not come empty-handed to withdraw from their relatives at that time. ”
"Ah, anything else?"
