Chapter 16: Caused uproar, Huangs jealousy
Gu Erniu is satisfied with a wooden cart, and the corners of his mouth are almost crooked.
Gu Shuixiu placed Gu Mingde on the wooden cart, and then put the purchased grain, cloth, mattress, and other items on it. Dong Chenghu and Gu Erniu pushed the cart, and she walked beside her. .
The speed of a few people with the wooden cart was much faster, and they returned to Caozi Village in the next afternoon. At this time, the villagers were busy in the fields. Everyone saw Gu Mingde's family pushing a wooden cart , the top was full of things, and seeing Gu Shuixiu and Dong Chenghu, they all stopped their work and looked at them.
I saw Gu Mingde on the wooden cart with sharp eyes, thinking of Gu Mingde's body, guessing that Gu Shuixiu and others brought Gu Mingde to see a doctor.
When I saw those things in the car, I was all envious.
"Isn't it saying that Gu Mingde's son-in-law is a poor hunter? It doesn't look like it, he looks good, he dresses better than us, where is he poor? Look at the stuff in that car , my dear, it should be all food! And those fabrics, enough to make some clothes." One person said enviously.
The people next to her began to talk about it.
Gu Shuixiu and the others heard their discussion from a distance, and the three of them ignored it and rushed home at a high speed.
Zhao heard the movement and came out to take a look. Seeing Gu Shuixiu and the others and the wooden cart, she was stunned for a moment. She quickly stepped forward and helped Dong Chenghu to help Gu Mingde in. Gu Shuixiu and Gu Erniu started unload.
The two were busy for a long time and finally put their things in order.
Dong Chenghu looked at the sky, discussed with Gu Shuixiu, and said, "Mother-in-law, it's still early, I've been out with Shuixiu for so many days, and I don't know what's going on at home? We think now When I rush back, my father-in-law's health is no longer in serious trouble, I take the medicine on time, and I will come back to take my father-in-law for a follow-up one month later."
Gu Erniu kept keeping him, very reluctant.
Gu Shuixiu is also helpless.
Zhao packed up a few thick noodles and steamed buns from the kitchen, "You take these things to eat on the road. Since you want to go back, you have to hurry. It's getting late."
Gu Shuixiu and his wife took the things and left Gu's house quickly.
Gu Laifu's family heard that Dong Chenghu took Gu Mingde to see a doctor and bought a lot of things for the Gu family.
Gu Laifu and his wife couldn't sit still, so they immediately came to inquire about the news.
But Dong Chenghu and Gu Shuixiu were not seen. The Zhao family knew the entanglement between Dong Chenghu and the Gu Laifu family. answer.
The couple got into trouble and left Gu Mingde's house.
"This Zhao Shi really thinks she is a dish! It's not just buying something, her eyelids are so shallow, I think if we hadn't been a matchmaker for her daughter, where did Gu Mingde get the money to see a doctor, Sure enough, this family is all white-eyed wolves, and there is no good thing..."
Huang scolded all the way, her face was full of unwillingness and jealousy.
Although Gu Zhuzhu said it was a good fake and had a lot of dowry, but since Gu Zhuzhu got married, she has never returned to her parents' home, let alone given anything.
Reviewing how Mingde sees a doctor costs several taels of silver, plus the wooden cart and those things, it should be fifty taels of silver! After such a calculation, Huang started to regret it in her heart. If she had married Gu Zhuzhu to Dong Chenghu, all these things would be hers. The most important thing is that in the future, Dong Chenghu will continue to help Gu Mingde's family. How much money would it have? !
The more Huang thinks about it, the more resentful he becomes, and the more he thinks about it, the more unwilling he becomes. To the silent Gu Laifu, he roared, "You didn't say that Pearl could help our family by marrying into the town, but now I haven't even seen their husband and wife, and I haven't even seen a box of dim sum, so I can count on them. Get them?"
Huang continued to think about it, Gu Laifu was furious, and immediately shouted and scolded Huang, after scolding and venting, he left first, leaving Huang aside.
Huang was aggrieved and sat on the ground crying, attracting many villagers to watch.
Father Gu rushed over when he got the news and stared at Mrs. Huang with a gloomy face. Mrs. Huang was afraid of Father Gu's majesty, so he didn't let go, and followed Father Gu obediently.
It's just that the village's sayings changed after today. Everyone started to say that Gu Shuixiu married well. Gu Mingde got such a filial and considerate son-in-law only because of the accumulation of virtues in his previous life. Gu Mingde's family is going to flourish.
Some people still envy Gu Zhenzhu to marry and live a good life in the town, but Gu Zhenzhu has a good life and she does not see her to help her family. Everyone is looking forward to seeing Gu Zhenzhu return home, but it is not even a figure Didn't see it, and slowly began to say that Gu Zhenzhu looked down on her family's poverty, feared that her family would be held back, and so on.
Gu Laifu and Huang Shi retorted loudly when they heard it, but they became more and more uneasy. If Gu Laifu rushed over and said that he wanted to see Gu Zhenzhu, wouldn't it be true as the villagers said, they would be eager to go up, wouldn't it be a drop in price!
Gu Laifu struggled with these questions, but he endured not going to Gu Zhuzhu.
I don't know who brought out the past of Dong's family and Gu Laifu's family. more gloomy.
Huang's heart was perturbed, worried about being angered by Dad Gu, so he would not appear in front of Dad Gu easily. In this way, the atmosphere of Gu Laifu's family was very strange, and even the villagers noticed something was wrong.
Gu Mingde's family naturally heard a little bit of it, but they all chose to be silent, just pretended not to hear, how to live or how to live, Gu Mingde finally woke up on the second day after returning home.
The Zhao family was overjoyed and wanted to announce the good news to Gu Shuixiu, and then they remembered that they still don’t know where the Dong family is in the mountains, and if there is no familiar person in the deep mountains to take them away, it is easy to appear Dangerous, Zhao shi had no choice but to give up this idea. Now Gu Shuixiu buys food and clothing for the family, which is enough for them to have a good time for a while. When Gu Mingde is in good health, their family will definitely get better and better.
Gu Shuixiu and Dong Chenghu returned home and continued to burn bricks, but this time they spent a lot of money to make Dong Chenghu feel a sense of crisis, so he also gave up the work of burning bricks and concentrated on hunting. Gu Shuixiu made bricks and dried them at home, and Dong Chenghu took time to burn bricks. The couple became more and more tacit.
Have been so busy for more than half a month. During this time, Dong Chenghu went out hunting every day, but he didn't get anything good, that is, the most pheasants and hares, luck today, Dong Chenghu is in the trap Found a dying sika deer.
Although this sika deer is not very big, it still weighs two hundred pounds. The most important thing is that its antler is very valuable.
Having this sika deer, Gu Shuixiu was very happy for a long time, and without wasting time, she immediately went to Linhai County on a bamboo raft with Dong Chenghu.
From this point to Linhai County, there is no way to come back the same day, the couple is not worried at all.
Excited to leave.
