Chapter 227: Gu Shui

She is now equal to her hands full of oil, there was no dish soap in ancient times, everyone washed dishes with plant ash.

So her hands were oily and black, and she also exuded a peculiar smell of lard.

"There are indeed more people paying New Year's greetings this year than last year, but it may be because his third uncle is about to go to Chunqiu, saying that in two days, there is still a sister-in-law in our family who is coming, you haven't seen this sister-in-law yet."

Because of the fact that he can make money, Yin's speech is much more lively now than before.

Sister-in-law?

Su Xiaomu had indeed never heard of such a number one person in the Gu family.

"Didn't my father and mother only give birth to three sons? Why do you still have a daughter? When I came before, my mother never said that I usually ......"

Su Xiaomu searched all the memories about the Gu family in his mind and made sure that he was not mistaken.

Sister-in-law...... Is it a sister?

"Didn't I say it, this sister-in-law is the youngest daughter of my father and mother, she got married a long time ago, and she has never come back in the past two years, I have been to the Gu family for so long, that is, I have seen her in the two years since I first entered the door."

When Yin said this, he specially lowered his voice and looked around, but he didn't see Li and Old Man Gu, so he was relieved to gossip with Su Xiaomu.

"Although this sister-in-law is the only daughter in the family, her father and mother don't seem to like her very much, she is not very smart, and she did many stupid things when she was at home, including her current husband."

Yin Shi seemed to think of some not-so-good memories, and shook his head.

"Her husband's family conditions are much worse than ours, and he is mixed and gambling, he can be regarded as a rotten person in this ten miles and eight towns, and she can look down on it, otherwise that person is only afraid that he will not be able to get a daughter-in-law in this life, no, although his father and mother looked down on him when he first married, he thought that he was the only girl in the family, and he lost a lot of dowry, but he didn't receive a penny of dowry."

It was a little explosive, and when Su Xiaomu heard such gossip, he almost didn't hold the bowl in his hand.

Could it be that this sister-in-law who has never met is still a love brain?

Su Xiaomu has a lot of interest in her, I want to see if this ancient love brain is the same as the modern one?

Since he wanted to see the excitement of others, Su Xiaomu still asked Yin politely: "Then I don't know what this sister-in-law is called?" ”

"Gu Shui." Yin didn't raise his head and returned to Su Xiaomu, "Otherwise, how can I say that my father and mother will take names, this child is either water or peak, and he is also the third uncle, and when he hears it, he is a literate person, different from us farmers." ”

Yin's last sentence was very interesting, Su Xiaomu felt that she should not have the meaning of alluding to Gu Jingcheng, it was just that she simply spoke without a brain, and it was just a little ambiguous.

Unexpectedly got gossip, Su Xiaomu finally found something to do for himself in the Gu family.

When he returned to the room in the evening, Su Xiaomu moved a chair and sat in front of Gu Jingcheng without hesitation, and directly inserted a few topics in the gap between his reading.

"Today I heard from my sister-in-law that you still have a sister, and you will come to visit the New Year in two days, why don't you tell me about your sister?"

Su Xiaomu poked his arm with his fingers, indicating that he was very interested in this Gu family named Gu Shui.

"And I'm also curious, why have you never told me that there is such a number one person in your family?"

Sister Eh, Li and Old Man Gu, it seems that there are a total of four.

has three sons and one daughter, which can be said to be very high in the average rural area.

After all, this is an era when you must have sons, and to be able to give birth to three in a row, the Li family still has some ability.

"What did my sister-in-law tell you?" Hearing this, Gu Jingcheng put down the book in his hand, turned around and raised his eyebrows to look at Su Xiaomu, "Since she told you this, she should have also told you that my family doesn't like that uncle." ”

Gu Jingcheng knew that Su Xiaomu loved gossip, but listening to her gossip and telling her his own family's gossip were really two different things.

What's more, he didn't know what that sister did at the beginning.

Gu Jingcheng's gaze wandered on Su Xiaomu's face.

Seeing that her eyes were full of curiosity, and her eyes stared at him without moving at all, Gu Jingcheng couldn't help but hook his lips: "Really want to know so much?" ”

"If I don't want to know, I don't have to bother asking you!"

Su Xiaomu moved the book he had just put down to the side again, this time pulling a little of his sleeve and shaking it.

"I didn't think that maybe I would be able to see your sister in a few days, and it would be embarrassing to meet her when I didn't know her, so I should know in advance, and you should introduce my family to me."

"Actually, I don't know much."

Gu Jingcheng couldn't resist her, so he told her everything he knew: "I've been studying outside, and my relationship with my brothers and sisters at home is not so good compared to ordinary people, although she is the same age as me, she has always had a good relationship with the second brother, as for that aunt, ......"

Gu Jingcheng frowned, revealing the same expression as the Yin clan tonight.

It was also a reminder of not very pleasant memories.

"That uncle seems to be proficient in eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, his family used to have some money, but he squandered it early, when he didn't know his sister, he was already poor, I don't know how the two of them met, but I know that once I happened to take a break, and when I came back, I saw my sister kneeling in front of my father and mother, saying that she was going to marry that aunt."

The disgusted expression on Gu Jingcheng's face was undisguised, and Su Xiaomu probably guessed that he should hate that brother-in-law very much.

Then I continued to listen carefully to what he had to say.

"My sister must marry, and even told my father that if my father and mother do not agree with her marrying that person, she will go directly to his house and become a concubine, of course my father and mother don't want her to do this kind of humiliating thing, but at that time I think they think they think more about me, after all, reading is important to reputation, and I don't want to block my career because of my sister."

Gu Jingcheng's tone was heavy, and he seemed to be a little thoughtful.

"Their marriage was very simple, they didn't even invite a few guests, and there were few people in the village, except for a few families close to us, no one knew who my sister was marrying."

Gu Jingcheng has never had much affection for his family.

But after all, he is a sister who grew up with him, and he can't help but feel a little embarrassed now when he thinks of marrying such a bastard in the end.

But after Su Xiaomu listened to all the stories here, he didn't understand a little, why would they, who are the parents of brothers, be willing to follow the sister-in-law's meaning, and let the sister-in-law marry her on the premise of knowing that person is a fire pit?

Su Xiaomu's face was full of doubts, and he really couldn't figure this out in his heart.
