"IOUs? Jiaojiao, can I take a look? ”

The eldest sister-in-law asked only to realize that she was asking something inappropriate.

Gu Jiao was able to tell her about these things, and it was also Gu Jiao's trust in her, and how could she be embarrassed to ask to see the IOU directly? Is this unclear that she doesn't believe in Gu Jiao?

"Okay, sister-in-law, you wait."

To the surprise of the eldest sister-in-law, Gu Jiao agreed directly, and after finishing speaking, she walked to the inner room, leaving the stunned eldest sister-in-law.

And Gu Jiao, who turned around, showed a triumphant smile on her lips.

She is not stupid and sweet, how can she tell others this kind of thing casually?

The reason why she chose Da Niu Sister-in-law was that in addition to the fact that her mother had saved Da Niu's life, she also learned from the memory of the original owner that Da Niu Sister-in-law was a rare righteous person in Taoyuan Village.

Because her grandfather is Li Zheng, even if the eldest sister-in-law has been married for a few years, as long as she knows about the injustice, because of her relationship, Li Zheng will pay attention to it......

And Gu Jiao's idea is exactly like this, she is sure that as long as the eldest sister-in-law reads the IOU signed by Gu Jinbao, she will definitely not stand idly by!

"Sister-in-law, give, these are the IOUs that my uncle signed to my father at the beginning, and he has signed one for each quarter of the land rent in the past five years, a total of ten are here, and it is difficult to have his handprints on them."

Gu Jiao took out a stack of paper and handed it to Da Niu's sister-in-law, because of the time, the paper towels are different from old to new, but the paper does not even have creases, and it can be seen that the owner has preserved it well.

"This ......"

When the eldest sister-in-law saw the IOU, she felt that Gu Jiao was exaggerating, but when she saw the well-organized IOUs with her own eyes, she only felt angry, and she couldn't wait to go to Gu Jinbao's family to question it clearly.

"Sister-in-law, I know I shouldn't tell you this, but I really think that my father died unjustly, in fact, if you don't come here today, I'm afraid that my brother and I will starve to death in a few days."

When Gu Jiao said this, she smiled dismally on her lips, her eyes were on the study where Gu Yaozu and the others were, and the affection in her eyes was not overflowing.

"Jiaojiao, it's really hard for you, you should have said these things earlier, if you said it earlier, maybe your father wouldn't have died."

Sister-in-law Niu couldn't have imagined that Gu Jinbao's family would be such a person.

Knowing that his younger brother was lingering on the sickbed and relying on medicine to hang his life, he was not only able to force Gu Jiao's family not to sell their land, but also unwilling to pay the low rent every quarter.

You must know that Gu Xiucai and Aunt Xiu bought a total of 16 acres of land in their early years, except for leaving one acre for self-cultivation, the remaining 15 acres were all rented to Gu Jinbao at a rent of 20% per quarter.

Because of Gu Xiucai's fame, the land output under his name does not need to pay land tax, and the twenty percent of the rent is simply giving land to them for planting, but I didn't expect Gu Jinbao's family to even withhold these and not hand them over, it's just ...... It's crazy!

You must know that two years ago, when Gu Xiucai was seriously ill, Gu Jinbao, the eldest brother, also built a new red tile house, and even brought Gu Lin's family and a pair of children to dress brightly.

Da Niu's sister-in-law still remembers that she was envious at the beginning, but she didn't expect that all this was Gu Jinbao's family sucking the blood of her seriously ill brother, but now that she thinks about it, Da Niu's sister-in-law is getting more and more angry!

"Jiaojiao, you just said that your eldest aunt will send a part of the rent owed to your family today?"

Sister-in-law Niu suppressed the anger in her heart and asked Gu Jiao.

"Well, yesterday the eldest aunt came over and wanted me to sign the deed of sale, I didn't agree, and brought up the old matter again, asking her to send part of the rent before the end of the day, the eldest aunt did not refute, but I waited from the time to the present, I didn't wait for the eldest uncle, but waited for the sister-in-law to visit."

When Gu Jiao said this, she smiled slightly, her eyes were full of gratitude to the eldest sister-in-law, as if the eldest sister-in-law came to visit her once......

"Before the hour? It's already a quarter of the hour now, and the hour has already passed, Jiaojiao, sister-in-law to tell the truth, your aunt is afraid that she won't come. ”

The eldest sister-in-law sighed softly, looking at Gu Jiao's face because of her words, and she felt uncomfortable in her heart, but she couldn't look at this girl who had just recovered from a serious illness and was stupidly sitting at the door waiting for someone who couldn't come......

After all, Gu Jinbao's family was able to withhold the rent when Gu Xiucai was alive and was unwilling to pay it, and now that Gu Xiucai is dead, there are only three Gu Jiao sisters and brothers left, and it is even more impossible for them to take the initiative to send the rent over......

"No, yesterday the eldest aunt came to say that Fu Fu was recruiting maids and wanted me to sell myself as a maid, although the eldest aunt didn't like it after I refused, she never refused my proposal......"

Gu Jiao said and looked in the direction of Gu Jinbao's new home, her eyes full of anticipation.

"Jiaojiao, not refusing is not the same as agreeing, even if you wait here until the sun goes down today, it is impossible for your eldest aunt to send the rent."

Sister-in-law Niu looked at Gu Jiao's expectant appearance, and no matter how unbearable she was, she had to break Gu Jiao's hope.

Otherwise, this stupid girl is afraid that she will really have to wait here for a day, in addition to delaying her work, disappointment is inevitable.

Instead of waiting here, it is better for her to take her grandfather and let her grandfather be the master of Gu Jiao's family......

But Gu Jiao's appearance, would she be willing to go with her?

"Jiaojiao, I ......"

"Sister, I'm hungry......"

Before Sister-in-law Niu could say the words in her mouth, she heard a faint voice, and when she heard the voice, she saw two sallow and thin children standing at the door, and this was what one of them said.

“…… How did it come out? Have you memorized all the books assigned by your sister? ”

Gu Jiao smiled apologetically at the eldest sister-in-law, so she stepped forward quickly, squatted down so that her eyes were at the same level as the two of them, and asked.

In her heart, she really praised the two brothers for the first time, and she was worried that there was no reason to change, so the two brothers came out and gave her an opportunity, even if this opportunity could only be produced with the cooperation of the eldest sister-in-law......

"Sister, I'm hungry, my little belly keeps screaming, and I can't run into the books."

It was Gu Yaozong who spoke, and he pointed to his stomach as he spoke.

The leftover pheasant that Gu Jiao ate last night at their breakfast was boiled into soup by Gu Jiao, and each of them drank two large bowls in the morning.

But even the chicken soup is all water, and it can't fill the stomach, and most of the morning has passed, even Gu Jiao, an adult, is hungry, not to mention the two children Gu Yaozong and Gu Yaozu.

"Good, when the eldest aunt comes, the belly won't ring."

Gu Jiao tugged at the corners of her mouth and said with a little difficulty.

She thought that these two children would be hungry, but imagining it is completely different from what she saw with her own eyes, even though she is a halfway sister, but looking at the pitiful appearance of the two, Gu Jiao still couldn't help but feel distressed.

But in order for the plan to continue, she has to endure the distress, otherwise she will not only be hungry today......
