Reborn Nongmen's little lucky wife

Chapter 14

Qian Guangzong is the shopkeeper of a cloth shop, a typical unscrupulous businessman, who has long been thinking about how to sell the Gu Dashan family.

But several times he asked Aunt Gu to urge Mrs. Gu to sell the Gu Dashan family, but Mrs. Gu hesitated and did not agree.

For Mrs. Gu, selling the Gu Dashan family would be better than discussing it under her nose. As a stepmother, there is nothing more comfortable than sparring with the children of her former spouse.

And leaving Gu Dashan's family behind, he can still work for their entire family, which is similar to buying a family.If it is sold, the family's work will fall on her own son, and Mrs. Gu is reluctant, so she has not sold the Gu Dashan family for so many years.

But this time is different.

Gu Dagu said: "Mother, Gu Dashan's family got the attention of the village chief because of the water source. Today, the village chief speaks for their family in front of the whole village and beats you in the face, and the third uncle and the third uncle also help Gu. The Dashan family, and the girl Xiaoyu, have become more and more savage after the big disaster. They have been against us everywhere in the past two days, and the village chief will support them. After a long time, the Gu Dashan family will not be able to ride on our heads? "

Aunt Gu looked around and saw Old Man Gu resting on a mat not far away, she lowered her voice and said, "Mother, you are a stepmother, no matter how good you are to the Gu Dashan family, you are not familiar with them, you might as well sell them as soon as possible. I can exchange some food to get through the next famine.”

Along the way, the food that can be found is getting less and less, and after walking for half a month, it is possible that even the leaves and grass-roots mountain mice will not be found. Their family should prepare early.

Gu Xiaomei helped: "Mother, eldest sister is right. Over the years, we have treated the Gu Dashan family badly. They definitely hate us. This time they had great luck and found a water source for the village. Now the village is helping them. With the support of the village chief and the villagers, they may not know how to get revenge on us, so sell it as soon as possible to save trouble. You don't have to worry that no one will work after selling their family, you can let the third brother's family do it. "

Gu Youfu is the second son of Mrs. Gu, but Mrs. Gu doesn't like this son who looks exactly like Mr. Gu. Among the three biological sons, Gu Youfu has been beaten and scolded the most, making Gu Youfu's family on top of Gu Dashan's family. Work, old lady Gu is not distressed at all.

Madam Gu's slender eyes were half-squinted, thinking about the words of Aunt Gu and Little Sister Gu.

After a while, she looked at the old man Gu who was still taking a nap, and said to Aunt Gu: "their family is in a good time now, this matter has to be taken slowly, you and Guangzong go to inquire first, and come back and tell if there is a suitable person. I."

This is to agree to sell the Gu Dashan family.

Aunt Gu and Qian Guangzong were overjoyed. After thinking about it for so long, it finally happened.

Gu Dagu said: "Don't worry, mother, I will ask Guangzong to inquire in the past few days, and I will come back and tell my mother as soon as there is news."

In fact, the husband and wife had been inquiring about selling people for grain and money, and they also talked to the stewards of a few wealthy households, so they didn't worry about finding a buyer.

Gu Xiaomei was overjoyed to hear that the annoying family was finally going to be sold.

Zheng Shi was coaxing Gu Chengzhi not far away, and she didn't know what was going on. Brother Zhi's arm kept hurting, and she cried intermittently for a day. She cried so much that she was upset. When she heard that Mrs. Gu agreed to sell the Gu Dashan family, Just feel more comfortable.

Qian Li'er is even more happy. She has long been disliked by Gu Jinxiu's fetish son. At the beginning of last year, the son of the shopkeeper of the town restaurant saw Gu Jinxiu and fell in love with her, knowing the relationship between their family and Gu Jinxiu's family. He came to their house to inquire about Gu Jinxiu's situation, and wanted their house to help make peace.

She was so angry at the time, the son of the shopkeeper of the restaurant in the town was one of the candidates for her husband-in-law, but she fell in love with that slut Gu Jinxiu.

Fortunately, in the end, Aunt Gu made a plan and asked the lady in charge of the restaurant in the town to dispel the idea of ​​marrying Gu Jinxiu as a daughter-in-law.

And Gu Dashan's family didn't know about it from the beginning to the end, but Qian Lier was jealous, so she hated Gu Jinxiu.

After hearing that Mrs. Gu agreed to sell Gu Dashan's family, she quietly said to Qian Guangzong and Aunt Gu: "Father and mother, then Gu Jinxiu looks good, you can give Gu Jinxiu to those stewards, just ask the stewards to be in the rich households. A few kind words in front of the master, and give us some more food."

Qian Lier not only wants to sell Gu Dashan's family, but also destroy Gu Jinxiu.

In the end, she added uneasy: "I can't give Gu Jinxiu to the wealthy master, lest that fox bewitched the masters, entice the wealthy master to come to us to settle accounts, and give her to the steward who has a daughter-in-law. , let her be a concubine for the next person, and suffer for a lifetime!"

When Qian Guangzong heard his daughter's words, he boasted: "Li'er is smart, okay, Dad knows."

Two or three of the stewards he knew were quite old, but they were good looking.

……

After the Gu Dashan family exchanged water for food, they paid off the food they owed, and gave Doctor Du a bowl of food as a thank you for curing Gu Jinli. The whole family was happy, and they never thought that Mrs. Gu would sell it. their family.

Gu Jinli took Gu Jinxiu and Cheng Geer to the resting place of the third grandma's house after Aunt Gu and the three came to turn over the things.When they were on the road, they discussed with the third grandmother's family, and they would eat and sleep with their family in the future.

The third grandmother was very happy and had been looking forward to their coming.

Gu Dashan insisted on resting with the old Gu family because of the begging for food and the beatings of Cheng Ge'er and Cui Shi, and he did not object this time.

The third grandmother had already cooked the corn porridge and put it in a small wooden basin. Seeing the three of Gu Jinli, she shouted happily, "Xiaoyu, bring some wooden bowls for the third grandma, and let's serve the porridge."

Gu Jinli responded, unfastened the wooden bowl strung with straw rope, wiped it a few times, and gave it to the third grandmother. She looked at the corn porridge with only a shallow pot bottom, and said, "It's corn porridge, this one. Well, take care of people."

Corn is millet, a type of coarse grain.

The third grandmother smiled happily, and gave each of the three siblings a small half bowl, urging them: "Eat quickly, you are all hungry and thin."

Seeing that the children were as thin as skeletons, the third grandmother felt so distressed that she wanted to cry.

Gu Jinli put his bowl into the third grandma's hand and said, "third grandma eats it too."

She took a wooden bowl and filled the bottom of a shallow bowl, and drank it in less than two sips, but smiled very satisfied: "Leave the rest for the third grandpa, my father, my mother, and the elder brother to eat."

There was no organization in the village to find food tonight, but the third grandfather couldn't be free, and followed Gu Dashan and his son and Luo's father and son to find food nearby, and he has not come back yet.

Gu Jinli was afraid that the third grandmother would persuade her to drink corn porridge again, so he took a wooden spoon to the pot next to him and stirred the food inside.

This is the staple food of the two of them tonight. It is an omnivorous food stewed with soybeans mixed with grass roots and leaves. Although they have exchanged water for food, they have a long way to escape, and they have to eat food sparingly.

The third grandmother held the corn porridge stuffed by Gu Jinli, her eyes were red, this was the child's intention, she took a big mouthful of the wooden bowl.

Gu Jinxiu and Brother Cheng saw her eating, so they put the mouth of the bowl and ate it in small bites.

When the omnivorous food in the pot was cooked, the third grandfather and the Luo family father and son also came back. Gu Dashan and Gu Jinan were not there, so they went to deliver the food they found to the old Gu family.

A quarter of an hour later, they brought Mrs Cui over. Gu Jinli looked at Mrs Cui and felt relieved after confirming that she was not beaten today.

Everyone was digging for water all night last night, and only took turns to rest for a while. Now they are so tired that they are about to faint. After the family and the third grandfather and third grandma had dinner, they began to rest, and had a good sleep. The second Continue on the road early in the morning.

On the way, Qian Guangzong and his wife were very busy. They always took advantage of the breaks to go to talk to the stewards of the wealthy households.
