"What's the matter? Don't you want me to wear nice clothes?" Just when she mentioned this, Madam Lu patted Gu Chengyu, and then directed Madam He to bring up the nest.
Gu Chengyu touched his nose. He just came back, so he probably didn't mess with his mother, right? He looked at Dad Gu and asked Dad Gu what was going on with his eyes.
Unexpectedly, Father Gu glanced at him, then calmly picked up the dishes on the table, took a sip of wine, and made a "sizzling" sound with great enjoyment.
Gu Chengyu turned around and looked around, only to find that almost everyone had arrived, and only the third brother and the third sister-in-law were missing. Gu Wan across from him blinked at him, and Gu Chengyu felt a little puzzled. Normally speaking, this third sister-in-law was quite diligent.
, married into the Gu family, she was never lazy when it was her turn to do things, she was just a bit aggressive, but she was not a bad person. If it were normal, she would have helped her sister-in-law and the others set the dishes.
The third sister-in-law's maiden name is Zhang Yun'er. Her natal father is a tofu seller who walks the streets and is from Xiasang Village. Originally, Ms. Lu wanted to ask a matchmaker to find a girl from a small family who had some wealth, or whose family lived in the town.
After all, the Gu family was a well-to-do family. Mrs. Lu didn’t want to find a poor father-in-law’s family for her third son, and she would have to be supported by the Gu family in the end.
Who knows, when Gu Chenglian was sending Dalang and the others to school, he met Zhang Yun'er who was delivering tofu to Old Man Zhang. Zhang Yun'er looked quite delicate, and Gu Chenglian fell in love with her at first sight. When he came back, he told Mrs. Lu that if she told him
If you want to marry me, why not marry Zhang Yun'er from Xia Sang Village?
When Mrs. Lu heard this, she almost fainted with anger. She knew the Zhang family in Xia Sang Village. After all, old man Zhang often carried a load to Shangling Village to sell tofu, but the Zhang family was poor!
The family has an eldest son, a daughter, and a younger son. The eldest son was not filial. He married a daughter-in-law and forgot about his parents. He separated from Old Man Zhang early. Old Man Zhang is not young anymore, and the couple
Living with a daughter and a ten-year-old son is of course a difficult life. Old man Zhang has the skill of making tofu, but tofu is cheap and cannot be sold for much money.
Ms. Lu firmly disagreed. Zhang Yun'er has such a young brother, and his eldest brother doesn't care much about his parents and brothers. So shouldn't he have to ask the Gu family to help raise him?
But as parents, how can they resist their own children? Gu Chenglian just delayed and refused to get married. In the end, Mrs. Lu reluctantly agreed. In this way, Zhang Yun'er entered the Gu family with a simple dowry box. Mrs. Lu was originally because of
The Zhang family asked for a betrothal gift of ten taels of silver, so they were so angry that they couldn't eat.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Yun'er entered the Gu family with such a dowry. She only had the red wedding dress sent by the Gu family and a broken box containing a few clothes. There was nothing else. Even the silver hairpin on her head was from the Gu family.
I sent it when I was hired.
For this reason, Madam Lu chastised Madam Zhang for a long time. During that time, her second sister-in-law was very happy, humming a little tune and going out to visit her every day.
Thanks to Third Sister-in-law's sweet words, it took more than three months for Lu's anger to subside by more than half.
"Where are the third brother and the third sister-in-law? Why haven't you come to dinner?" Gu Chengyu asked. Gu Chengyu recalled the past of the third brother's marriage, and she also understood the reasons for Lu's anger.
Speaking of which, it has been more than a year since Mr. Zhang got married, but no good news has come yet. Is his mother worried? He has learned some medical skills in space. From the look on Mr. Zhang’s face, it seems that he was a girl before.
At that time, the girl was menstruating, but she didn't take good care of her body. She came into contact with cold things, and then she felt a little cold in the palace. As long as she takes some medicine, she should be cured.
But even his brother-in-law couldn't speak these words! He could only find an opportunity in the future to talk to his third brother implicitly and ask him to take his third sister-in-law to see the doctor.
Thinking of the illness of the third sister-in-law, Gu Chengyu looked forward to look at her sister-in-law. Last year, her sister-in-law fainted while working in the kitchen. Mr. Li came to see her and said that she was suffering from insufficient energy and blood and that she had to take good care of herself.
, rest more, and take some good supplements. Otherwise, it will definitely damage the root, and by then it will be too late.
The eldest brother was frightened when he heard this. He begged his father to let his sister-in-law rest for more than half a month. During this period, he also bought some red dates and boiled red dates and eggs to replenish Fang's health. He even muttered several times about this and was dismissed.
His father got angry and then calmed down.
Nowadays, the food of the Gu family is pretty good. Although the food on that table is not as good as the food on this table, it is much better than the original food. At least it is enough to eat. In addition, the Gu family has invited people from the village to help take care of the fields.
, Mrs. Fang no longer has to go to the fields, and now her face looks much better.
Mrs. Lu was distributing the steamed buns. When she heard what he said, she immediately let out a "hum" and threw the steamed buns into the small dustpan again.
Gu Chengyu was stunned, his mother was really angry. Did he go somewhere today to irritate his mother?
"What do we care about what they do when we eat? We want to eat or not. If we don't eat, we'll save money!" Mrs. Lu angrily assigned the heads of the room and took the remaining steamed buns to the next table.
Nowadays, the Gu family no longer eats black flour cakes. They only eat white flour flatbreads with mixed noodles. Sometimes the flatbreads are replaced with rice. The dishes are also much better. Every two days there will be a meat dish, including fatty meat.
I bought the most.
Gu Chengyu saw that Mr. Lu's face was not good, so he stopped asking. After Gu Chengyu and the others had eaten a few mouthfuls, Gu Chenglian and his wife arrived late, and Ms. Zhang's eyes were still a little red, as if she had just cried.
, even Gu Chenglian was a little unnatural.
"Oh! You still know how to go out to eat? For those who don't know, you think she is the daughter of a certain family? Let her mother-in-law wait on you to cook and serve food, and then have to invite her to the table. This is not the kind of daughter-in-law you marry!
This is the ancestor you invited!"
When Mrs. Lu saw Mrs. Zhang come out of the house, she even cried, and her anger was rising. She couldn't eat and lay eggs, so why didn't she say a few words to her? Her good son even asked her to divorce her.
You know, who are you doing this for?
"Mom! Let's eat!" Gu Chenglian knew that Mr. Zhang felt uncomfortable today, but it was his mother, what could he do? Besides, his mother only said a few words, which family should be the daughter-in-law, and what should the mother-in-law say?
Isn’t it something you can endure?
As soon as Ms. Zhang came back, she cried to him. He tried to persuade him for a long time, but before he could coax her, he even got a little angry with him. He was also a little annoyed and came to the main room regardless. Seeing this, Mr. Zhang had no choice but to
Followed behind him.
"Okay! Let's talk about anything after dinner." It's not convenient for Father Gu to get involved in a woman's family affairs, but if it concerns his heirs, he has to say a few words.
When Mrs. Zhang first got married, she was still a little cautious, but recently she has figured out the family's temper, and she has become a little arrogant. Moreover, it has been more than a year and there has been no news. Dad Gu plans to treat the third child
