Gu Chengyu planned to go back to the main house and ask his father about the current situation at home.
However, Wang Yueniang walked out of the house with Gu Wanchang in her arms. Seeing Gu Chengyu going to the main room, she quickly called out to him.
"His uncle!"
Gu Chengyu turned around and looked at Wang Yueniang, "Is something wrong?"
He knew that Wang Yueniang would be irresistible and report Gu Chengyi's recent movements to him. He finally came back, and Wang Yueniang would certainly seize this opportunity.
I just didn't expect Wang Yueniang to be so anxious and came to the door the next day.
Wang Yueniang is Gu Chengyi's concubine. To Gu Chengyu, she is not considered a serious elder at all.
"mother?"
Yang Guo hurried into the yard, saw Wang Yueniang standing in the yard, and immediately called out.
When he saw Gu Chengyu was there, he looked a little uncomfortable.
Yang Guo is not Gu Chengyi's stepson, after all, Wang Yueniang is just a concubine. Besides, Father Gu and the others have always disagreed with Yang Guo's sexual transformation, so Yang Guo is still a member of the Yang family.
Of course the Gu family can't live in the Gu family. Besides, Sanya Gu Mei lives in the courtyard of the Gu family, which is really inconvenient.
Therefore, Yang Guo still lives in Wang Yueniang's old house, but the house was renovated and turned into a brick house.
Yang Guo is already seventeen this year, but has not yet been engaged. I heard that Wang Yueniang had been looking for a marriage for Yang Guo two years ago, but she had not been successful.
Yang Guo's status was embarrassing. Although his mother married into the Gu family, she was just a concubine. Gu Chengyi was probably very good at money.
People from well-to-do families will definitely look down on Yang Guo. Those who can be said to be close to each other are all girls from poor families, commonly known as selling their daughters.
Wang Yueniang still has some money in her hands, which is definitely better than the average poor family.
But she couldn't give all the subsidies to Yang Guo. She also had a small one, so she had to save some for the small one.
Gu Chengyu heard his mother talk about this matter yesterday, and knew that Wang Yueniang might use Gu Chengyi's news as a condition to make plans for her eldest son.
After all, Gu Wanchang belongs to the Gu family and can always rely on the Gu family in the future, but Yang Guo really has no whereabouts.
Gu Chengyu didn't resent it, it was called everyone getting what he needed. He only needed to give Wang Yueniang a small favor, so he could make Wang Yueniang use her, so why not?
"Guo'er! Call me uncle!" Wang Yueniang pulled Yang Guo who was coming over, with a flattering smile on her face, and pushed Yang Guo forward.
Yang Guo blushed. He heard that the county magistrates all came to visit Gu Chengyu today, which showed that Gu Chengyu's official duties were great.
It's just that Gu Chengyu's surname is Gu and his surname is Yang. Even if he wants to call her brother-in-law, they may not agree.
Yang Guo hesitated, still feeling embarrassed to speak.
"You kid, call someone!" Wang Yueniang didn't dare to say a word when she saw Yang Guo faltering for a long time.
"Uncle!" An inarticulate child's voice sounded, and Gu Chengyu was a little surprised.
When he turned around, he saw that it was Gu Wanchang who was calling. The little boy yelled and retracted into his mother's arms.
"Yeah!" It seemed that the little boy was afraid of strangers. After seeing him a few times, he was already familiar with him.
"What do you want to see me for?" Gu Chengyu didn't have the patience to talk to them here, and Wang Yueniang still had to get down to the topic.
Wang Yueniang originally wanted to explain a few words to Yang Guo, but when she saw that Gu Chengyu was slightly impatient, she stopped and planned to send Yang Guo back first.
"Guo'er! You go back first, your uncle and I have something to talk about."
Gu Chengyu did not comment on Wang Yueniang's statement. Even if he was called that, the Gu family would not accept Yang Guo, otherwise he would be laughed at in the village.
Gu Chengyu turned around and walked towards the main room. Before leaving, he just said, "Come to the main room and talk."
"Mom! I have something to tell you." Yang Guo pulled Wang Yueniang's sleeve and wanted to take her back to the west wing to talk.
"Guo'er, Mom has something to do right now, and we'll talk about your business later. You go back first, and Mom will go find you later."
Wang Yueniang put a lot of effort into finding a good match for Yang Guo. However, she had a bad reputation, which caused Yang Guo to suffer.
She has always felt guilty about Yang Guo. This son has suffered a lot with her, and now she wants to fight for Yang Guo.
Seeing Wang Yueniang's anxious expression, Yang Guo had no choice but to swallow what was on his mind. He was already seventeen years old and had long been sensible.
I saw a lot of looks from the villagers, and gradually understood his mother's difficulties.
He knew that people in the village said that his mother was unruly, but that was his mother!
"Okay then! Mom, you must come today, I'm really in a hurry." Yang Guo let go of Wang Yueniang and left the Gu family's yard.
Wang Yueniang straightened her clothes and walked towards the main courtyard with Gu Wanchang in her arms.
"Xiaobao! What were you talking about with that Wang Yueniang in the yard just now? What's there to say to someone like her?"
Mrs. Lu was making a robe for Gu Chengyu on the bed. She had just seen Gu Chengyu and Wang Yueniang talking in the yard from the window, and she muttered a few words to Gu Chengyu.
"Mom doesn't want to know about the second brother? She seems to know a lot about the second brother."
Gu Chengyu asked Wang Yueniang to come to the main courtyard because he was now older and it was not good to be alone with Wang Yueniang, not to mention Wang Yueniang's embarrassing status. As for Gu Wanchang, a kid like that would be ignored automatically.
"Your second brother?" Lu glanced at Gu Chengyu thoughtfully, and then stopped talking.
She also wants to know where Gu Chengyi and that Mr. Li went when they were away from home all day. Sooner or later, those two people will lose all the money!
"Fifth Master! Is the second aunt's grandma's house close to our house? The old lady has long missed the second aunt's grandma."
The mute mother-in-law on the side finished pouring tea for Gu Chengyu and suddenly asked about things in the capital.
"It's not far. It only takes half an hour by carriage."
Wang Yueniang hugged Gu Wanchang and carefully entered the house.
When the mute old lady saw her, she hurriedly stepped forward and saluted.
"Aunt Wang! Fourth Young Master!"
"Mom! His brother-in-law!" Wang Yueniang entered the room and sat on the stool in front of the Kang.
When Mrs. Lu heard Wang Yueniang's motherly voice, she felt very awkward.
"Ahem! I'm not your mother!"
Originally, Wang Yueniang was jealous of her good looks and always said bad things about her in the village. Now they have become a family and call her mother, which feels really strange.
Wang Yueniang is a concubine, so she is not qualified to be called Lu's mother.
She is only seven years older than Wang Yueniang, because Wang Yueniang is two years older than Gu Chengyi!
Wang Yueniang was disliked by Mrs. Lu, but she didn't feel embarrassed at all. She didn't care at all, she just smiled and continued to go her own way.
"Mom, recently the head of the family always takes Mrs. Li to her parents' house. I haven't seen them for seven or eight days. Do you think you should let dad take care of it?"
Wang Yueniang held Gu Wanchang in front of her and began to scold Gu Chengyi.
Although Mrs. Lu felt awkward hearing that voice, she also knew that it was about Gu Chengyi's recent movements, so she didn't worry about the title anymore.
"Why do my second brother and the others keep running to Li's natal family?"
Gu Chengyu felt very strange when he heard this.
Mrs. Li was originally a widower, and the family in front of her had a small amount of money. They lived in the town and opened a grocery store.
