Chapter 236: A Mess
The carriage staggered forward, and the cold winter wind was naturally biting, but every blow on the face would make people more and more awake, and there was no sleepiness at all.
When she saw Li, she was walking on the ridge, and Su Xiaomu knew that Gu Jingcheng's legs and feet were inconvenient and it was difficult to get out of the car, so he went with Zhou Lin to call Li.
"Mother, what are you doing, if you want to go to my little sister's house, you should also call us together, how can you go as a parent without saying a word, what does this make their Zhou family think of our Gu family?"
Su Xiaomu knew that the Li family valued the reputation of the Gu family the most, so he first pushed out the entire family to speak.
Sure enough, as soon as Li Shi heard that this was not good, his brows first furrowed, and then he said to Su Xiaomu: "But I have to go today, whether it is for your prescription or for the life she lives over there, I can't care about it as a mother, Xiaomu, Shui Shui is living in dire straits now, and you know it." ”
Su Xiaomu looked at Li's eyes that belonged to the mother-like concern for the child, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
A lot of thoughts flashed in her mind at this time, and finally she could only tell her: "We are not here to stop you, my father-in-law's friend borrowed our carriage, let's sit together and go to my little sister's house, when I came out, I left a letter for my two sisters-in-law, asking them to go to their father and them, since we are going to support my little sister, no one in the family can be less." ”
Su Xiaomu patted Li's hand soothingly: "No matter what, our family is here." ”
Li really didn't expect that her little daughter-in-law would have such an idea, she followed Su Xiaomu into the carriage and saw that Gu Jingcheng was also there.
The carriage that Zhou Lin borrowed from them was not very big, and it was a little narrow for four people, but because of this, it was unexpectedly a little warm in winter.
Li was worried about Gu Jingcheng's legs, and his eyes were fixed on his knees.
"My mother is worried about her son's heart, my son understands, so I also understand that my mother feels sorry for her daughter, and at this time, the eldest brother should also be on the way, so let's go to seek justice for my sister together, so as not to let her suffer for so many years."
Gu Jingcheng and Su Xiaomu exchanged glances, sighing and comforting: "Don't worry too much. ”
"Good! Your brother and sister are harmonious, this is the best for your mother, then let's go together to seek justice for your sister, there are no more people in the family! ”
In the narrow carriage, Li felt that his heart was completely soothed.
The cold wind she had been blowing outside just now had all dissipated.
Zhou Lin looked at their family, you comforted me, I care about you, and silently shrank his body to the corner.
It's really a novelty, he never thought that Gu Jingcheng had such a good relationship with his family before.
In the past, every time his family came to bring him food, he looked bitter and hateful.
Not to mention that although he has no expression all the time, Zhou Lin and him are classmates, and the two get along every day, whether Gu Jingcheng is happy or unhappy, he can still vaguely tell whether he is happy.
Zhou Lin's gaze fell on Su Xiaomu vaguely, when did Gu Jingcheng start to change?
Probably marrying Su Xiaomu, Gu Jingcheng gradually had more fireworks in the world.
Their carriage deliberately slowed down, and when they were about to arrive at Zhou's house, Gu Feng and Gu Hai finally caught up with their two sisters-in-law.
A large family of people knocked on the door of the Zhou family with Zhou Lin's oil bottle.
It's a little shabby.
Su Xiaomu looked at the Zhou family's house, which was a little better than the thatched house, and really had some doubts, was their family's dangerous house really not collapsed by the heavy snow last time?
It is a miracle that such a thin house can survive such a heavy snowfall.
"Who? It's a disturbing dream in the early morning, and you'd better have something. ”
Inside the door, they first heard the sound of chickens flying and dogs jumping, and then they heard a fierce woman pointing at a weak woman and scolding, the scolding was ugly and long, which really made the faces of the Gu family waiting at the door more and more ugly.
It took a while for someone to open the door, and it was a woman with wrinkles crawling on her face.
Su Xiaomu stood next to Gu Jingcheng and helped him, looking at the woman quietly.
She should be very poor and unsophisticated.
Her unkempt hair covered her head like a net of black linen.
The face is round and fat, and the pale wrinkles on the face are overlapped, like a sun-dried and hard grapefruit shell.
The heavy bags under her eyes squeezed her eyes into two slits, and her lower lip tightly covered her shriveled upper lip, like a frightening old woman.
Li also saw Zhou's mother for the first time, and was also taken aback by her appearance, and it took a long time to squeeze out a voice from her throat and ask her: "Aunt Zhou...... I'm Shuishui's mother, and this time I'll bring a few of her brothers to see her. ”
"It turns out that it is, it's my in-laws!"
That Zhou's mother's small eyes were rolling in her sockets, and when she heard that it was Gu Shui's mother's house, and looked at a large number of people in this black house, she immediately welcomed them into the house.
"This daughter has been married to our family for so many years, and it is the first time that my in-laws have come to the door, and we haven't seen each other before, you see, I don't know you."
As soon as Zhou's mother saw Li, she took her hand very affectionately and invited them to sit in the hall.
Gu Shui saw them from the door of the Gu family, she saw that her brother and sister-in-law were coming, and she hid her arms behind her in shame, leaving only a high belly, which looked particularly scary at the moment.
Without him, Gu Shui was too thin, his limbs were dry like wheat stalks, and his belly was terrifyingly big.
Li spoke politely to Zhou's mother, but the afterglow kept falling on Gu Shui, who was shrinking in the corner.
There are also Gu Shui's three daughters, the eldest is washing clothes, the second is cooking in the kitchen, and the third doesn't know where to go, but as far as their family is like this, they must have been arranged.
The three little girls are younger than they are, but they haven't left a single job behind.
"Come and eat something, your grandmother brought it to you."
Su Xiaomu beckoned Da Mei and Ermei over, touched their heads affectionately, and fed them the prepared candied fruits.
"Where is Sanmei? Did you see her? ”
I haven't seen the third child yet, and Gu Shui, who is a mother, has not taken care of the children, and now they are still shrunk aside and do not speak.
They didn't call her, and she didn't come up to confess.
But Su Xiaomu also understands her.
"Sister...... My sister went to chop wood, and today it was her turn to chop wood. ”
Damei's big, round eyes flickered, and she covered her mouth with her brittle and thin hands, as if she was afraid that the candied fruit would fall out of her mouth.
"I can keep it for her, and my little aunt can give it to me."
Da Mei looked at the remaining fruit in Su Xiaomu's hand with a longing gaze, the more she wanted to eat it, the more Su Xiaomu felt sorry for her.
But it was precisely because she said that Sanmei was going to chop firewood, and the three of them became more distressed.
