"Mom, for the sake of fourth brother, let's forget it! I'm just talking about the clothes. I'm going back to the back room." Gu Wan's face darkened, leaving Lu and Gu Chengyu behind, and went back to the back room.
"What are you doing? Is she trying to poke at her mother's heart? Am I not treating her well? But that's her fourth brother!" Mrs. Lu suddenly started crying and fell down on the edge of the kang, her eyes filled with tears.
flowed out.
"Mom, don't cry. The second sister is tired and wants to sleep." Gu Chengyu also felt a little uncomfortable. Mrs. Lu was really kind to Gu Wan. Chunhua who played with Gu Wan was always ordered by her mother every day.
Non-stop. But if you choose between your son and your daughter, the result is obvious. This era is so cruel. He knows that Gu Wan has long known that there will be such a result. Compared with letting the third brother lose his ability to eat,
, it was not a big deal for her to be beaten once, not to mention that it was just a conflict between little girls, and Gu Wan just felt uncomfortable in her heart. Mrs. Lu hugged Gu Chengyu and buried her head in his neck. Gu Chengyu
He could feel the warm liquid soaking his front. He had never seen Ms. Lu cry so sadly.
In his previous life, Gu Chengyu had been accustomed to the warmth and warmth of human relationships since he was a child, and he was also used to the indifference, selfishness, and scheming of people in the post-apocalyptic world. All these made him like to sit on the sidelines. In order to live, he sometimes abandoned his conscience and morality, and when it was time to make a choice, he
Show no mercy.
Why did he have to wash his face when he returned to the team that day? Maybe it was because he was tired? He no longer wanted to live cautiously and had to look forward and backward in everything he did. It was too tiring to live like this alone.
When he traveled to the Gu family, Mr. Lu and Mr. Gu were both very kind to him. He also thought that they liked him because he was a boy. What if he was a girl? Although he enjoyed being loved by them, he was not eager to do so.
He wants to change the current situation of the Gu family, but sees himself as a passerby. He just wants to wait until he is older and help them get rid of poverty and become rich without exposing their space.
But now, he truly feels the helplessness and sadness of a mother. In the Gu family, each of them exists alive, they are all his relatives, and they work hard to live every day. Gu Chengyu closed his eyes and thought about the time since time travel.
In every aspect of life, he has to admit that he has become a member of the Gu family. From now on, he must put aside the past and truly integrate into the Gu family.
"What are you two doing? Why is his mother crying?" Father Gu came in from the outside and saw his mother-in-law hugging Gu Chengyu and crying bitterly. When Mrs. Lu heard Father Gu's voice, she raised her head and turned to one side.
He wiped his face and wiped his tears with a handkerchief.
"It's nothing. Go and have a look. Why did you ask the second brother to pick up his third brother and he still hasn't come back yet?" Ms. Lu looked at the sky outside the window and saw that it had darkened. She was a little worried. Then she continued
Thinking of Gu Chengchi not coming back yet. "The fourth child hasn't come back yet either! Why are you so late today?"
Father Gu saw that Gu Chengyu was there, so it was hard to ask more questions now, so he might as well wait until he went to bed.
"Mom, shall I pick up the fourth brother? Ask him to come back for dinner." Gu Chengyu wanted to take this opportunity to see how Lin Liu'er had such a vicious mouth at such a young age.
Gu Chengyu walked along the path in the village to the west end of the village. The setting sun on the mountainside had completely set, and there were only traces of red in the sky. As he walked, Gu Chengyu admired the beautiful scenery of the countryside and let out a sigh of relief.
Walking to the door of a single-family house in front of me, the layout of the house in front of me is similar to that of the Gu family. In fact, the layout of the houses in Shangling Village is similar. But the house in front of me is different. First of all, it is a large gray-black tile
This is the first time Gu Chengyu has seen an ancient large tile-roofed house. This is the Li Zhenglin family.
The Lin family's east and west wings have many rooms in total. Although the walls are still made of mud bricks, they don't need to replace the straw every year, and they don't have to worry about rain leaks! The roof of the Gu family is entirely covered with thick straw, and sometimes there are thunder and lightning.
In the strong wind, Gu Chengyu was worried that it would be blown away or collapse.
Walking to the courtyard door, Gu Chengyu was about to knock on the courtyard door. But he heard a sharp female voice coming from inside. No, it was actually the voice of a girl.
"The fourth son of the Gu family, why don't you hurry up? I asked you to boil water, why did you boil it so slowly? You are my second uncle's apprentice. If you want to learn a craft, you have to serve your master. It's your job to add tea and water.
Don't be dissatisfied. Your Gu family is so poor. If your father hadn't begged my second uncle to accept you as his apprentice, do you think my second uncle could have chosen you? Look at you, you can't even carry a piece of wood.
, is it called boiling water? You can’t even boil water. What do you do? A family of mud-legged people is just good enough to dig food in the fields. You still want to learn a craft? That girl Gu Wan still wants to touch my jewelry. She will do it in the future.
It’s worthy of marrying a bastard. Huh!”
Gu Chengyu stopped as soon as he heard calling his fourth brother. Who would have thought that the words that followed made him so angry that he wanted to tremble. No wonder his third brother hasn't gone home yet. It turned out that he was serving people here and was being insulted.
Gu Chengyu stopped knocking and just opened the door and walked into the courtyard. As soon as he entered, he saw his fourth brother standing there helplessly with a teapot. There was an overturned sea bowl on the small table next to him, and the tea in it was spilled.
The table was sizzling hot, and Gu Chengchi's trouser legs were heavily wet.
Standing next to a small table in the courtyard of the main house was an eleven or twelve-year-old girl, wearing a brand-new crimson muslin dress and a moon-white cotton-ribbed skirt. Her facial features were accentuated by this gorgeous dress, which made her look quite charming.
She has two points of beauty, but this cannot conceal the fact that she is actually just ordinary-looking. Undoubtedly, this is Lin Liu'er, the daughter of the Lin family who is said to like to have her nostrils turned upward.
Lin Liuer wanted to say more, but was interrupted by the sound of the door opening. Looking sideways, she saw a little boy of four or five years old. Lin Liuer was about to get angry, but when she took a closer look, she couldn't help being stunned. She had never seen this before.
Such a good-looking person, her snow-white and delicate skin shone faintly under a ray of sunlight, her brows were embellished with bright red, and her slightly raised lips seemed to be smiling at her. Looking up, a pair of beautiful eyes were revealed.
Feeling cold.
Lin Liuer shuddered and regained consciousness instantly.
"Which family are you a kid from? How can you enter someone else's house without knocking?" Lin Liuer immediately put one hand on her hips and pointed the other hand at Gu Chengyu and asked.
Gu Chengyu was furious at the moment! His fourth brother's body had always been weak. He had only been raised in the past two years, but he was still not well yet! In the Gu family, his mother never asked Gu Chengchi to do work. He also knew that in ancient times, all apprentices were
When the master has something to do, the disciple will do his duty. It is not uncommon to serve the master and work as an ox or a horse for the master. Even the monthly payment is given by the master if he sees it. Even if he doesn't give it, there is nothing to say. After all, someone teaches you a craft, and there is nothing wrong with it.
There is a saying that teaches the apprentice and starves the master, so if you want to learn a craft, you have to put down your dignity. But that does not mean that Lin Liuer is qualified to teach her fourth brother a lesson. After all, the fourth brother is still her elder.
Gu Chengyu suppressed his anger and replied with a cold face: "I am the fifth child of the Gu family. I am here to ask the fourth brother to go back for dinner."
After hearing this, Lin Liu'er suddenly realized. She looked at Gu Chengyu's clothes again and sneered: "Who am I? It turns out to be the fifth child of the Gu family. No wonder." Then he looked up and down, "They are all so poor. The four of you are so poor."
I can't even boil a pot of water, but it's really useless. Do you really think you are the young master of that wealthy family?" After saying this, he rolled his eyes up and glanced at the two brothers again.
