Chapter 68: Wait and see
Chapter 68
Everyone says that it's not good to divide a chapter into two chapters, but in fact, I really wrote two chapters, and I always felt that it was easier to write 2,000 words than 4,000 words
-----------------------------------------------------------------
"No, I know what you mean, patriarch grandpa..."Gu Bainiang said lightly, her expression was not happy or angry, the bright eyes that originally belonged to the cardamom girl were like dry wells and deep pools.
A strange emotion was like a branch stretching towards Gu Changchun's thoughts, sad, or desolate.
My own words are too heavy, I'm afraid that an adult can't bear it, let alone a child, a girl.
Gu Changchun's expression eased a little, a woman and a girl, how much consciousness can be expected from them, how good character they can develop, women.....
He opened his mouth to say a few words, but the little girl had already spoken.
"Dignity is earned by oneself, not by charity... Gu Bainiang said lightly, as if she was saying to herself, "I understand... I just got it today...."
"Patriarch Grandpa, there is nothing wrong with what you did today...."
"I know that you want to give that house to my uncle..... so I pretend to be crazy and stupid, and you are very angry..."
Gu Changchun's face moved, he wanted to say something, but he didn't open his mouth in the end.
In fact, Gu Leshan didn't tell him about the small actions he made below, but he knew that he just didn't see it....
Seeing that the matter was said like this, Gu Leshan's face was a little ugly, and he couldn't help but scold, but when he saw Gu Changchun glancing at him, he swallowed back the words.
"But have you ever thought that if my mother really did what you wanted in public, what would everyone think of us?"
Gu Changchun's face changed slightly, obviously he thought of it.
Gu Leshan just snorted, with a look of disdain.
"Yes, I know, we are nothing in everyone's eyes, we are poor, we have no ability..... we used to be just that, we don't live here every day, out of sight and out of mind, but now? We're going to stay here, how can you let my mother raise her head in front of the clan in the future......"
Cao's tears welled up when he heard this... It turns out that her daughter is all for her.
"Actually, I shouldn't blame you..."Gu Banniang smiled bitterly, "Who makes us poor or incapable, this is indeed a fact, not a fact that you don't want to exist...."
Gu Changchun couldn't help but say a few words of comfort, but Gu Bainiang changed her words.
"However, it is often said that thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi... We were poor and unproductive now, but how can you think that we will always be like this? Her voice faded and became clear.
The little girl raised her head slightly and looked at Gu Changchun in front of her.
"Now that I'm older, and my brother is older, and he's a good reader, who can say for sure that we'll be poor in the future? Will it be unproductive? ”
Gu Changchun's originally somewhat sad emotions subsided at this time, and a light smile appeared on his face.
"You?" Gu Leshan, who couldn't help it, shouted, "You have grown up, what?" Can you make a few more clothes and shoes? ”
He looked mocking and disdainful, "Reading? Your brother, I've been busy for so long, I forgot to test your brother's homework, how many times has he skipped class in the past year? How many times have you been driven home by my husband? ”
"I said Cao," he became more and more angry, glaring at Cao, "how did you become a mother?" What do you think of this originally good child? ”
Cao's expression was gloomy, and he bowed his head to apologize.
"Great uncle." Gu Bainiang took Cao's hand, looked at Gu Leshan and said lightly, "You have time to test my cousins' homework more, we won't worry about you." ”
"Look at your disrespectful appearance," Gu Leshan shouted angrily.
"Okay," Gu Changchun said, and looked at Gu Bainiang again, "Do you have anything else to say?" ”
"Yes." Gu Banniang said in a deep voice.
"Say." Gu Changchun took the tea ceremony.
"Since Patriarch Fangcai, Grandpa, you also said that the reason why this shop is taken care of by the eldest uncle is because we are not qualified, does it mean that one day in the future, we are qualified, and I will be able to get this shop back?" Gu Bainiang looked at Gu Changchun and asked.
Gu Leshan's face became more and more ugly, and he wanted to speak but was afraid of Gu Changchun.
Gu Changchun put down the teacup, looked at the little girl with a white face full of confidence who had swept away the gloomy anger in front of him, and finally sighed.
Forget it, even if he wants to ease up now, this little girl and them can no longer get along as calmly as before.
The little girl breathed a sigh of relief, so let her be wanton verbally.
"Okay." Gu Changchun put down the teacup and said lightly, "If one day you are qualified enough, this shop will be returned to you."
Gu Leshan frowned when he heard this.
"Okay." Gu Bainiang bowed her head and saluted, then swept over Gu Changchun and landed on Gu Leshan, "I remember today's words"
Gu Leshan's face was ugly, this dead girl ......
"I'll see what happens." Gu Changchun didn't care about the young man's brazen provocation, he picked up the teacup again and blew it gently, and said lightly.
"This stinky girl.." Watching the mother and daughter walk out of the hall, Gu Leshan said angrily, "Second uncle... Why are you following her crazy words?"
Gu Changchun glanced at him and said casually: "Leshan, I heard that the silk village you take care of has been doing good business recently, how can you pay the dividends or that number?" ”
Gu Leshan jumped, smiled a little weakly, and hurriedly said: "Second uncle, don't listen to their nonsense, it's not good to look at the red fire, everything has risen recently, the cost of feeding cars and horses, looking at the income is more, in fact, it is not as good as in previous years..."
"That second uncle, you've been tired for a long time, I'll go down now, don't bother, you have a good rest.." He hurriedly took his leave.
Gu Changchun didn't care, and hummed.
"That.." Walking to the door, Gu Leshan remembered the key matter, and hurriedly turned around and asked carefully, "Second uncle... Do you give them back that red? ”
Gu Changchun lifted his eyelids and looked at him, Gu Leshan was a little weak in his heart when he saw it, and lowered his head.
After a while, I heard Gu Changchun say lightly that there was no need, and he was overjoyed and hurriedly went.
The hall was quiet again, Gu Changchun sat there for a long time without moving, and the little girls pinched their hands and feet to serve tea, not daring to disturb him at all.
Today's events are really unexpected, he rubbed his frowning brows, thinking of the back of the girl's shadow mottled by the shadow of the tree just now, stubborn and lonely.
Did this happen today....he couldn't help but wonder.
But thinking of the daily performance of this family, I finally shook my head, rabbits are anxious and bite, just let them verbally wanton once, this life is estimated to be happy this time.
