Chapter 28 Wronged

Chapter 28 Wronged
"Mother, for the sake of fourth brother, let's forget about it! Clothes, I'm just talking, I'm going back to the back room." Gu Wan's face darkened, she left Lu Shi and Gu Chengyu behind, and went back to the back room.

"What is this for? Is she trying to poke her mother's heart? Am I not treating her well? But that is her fourth brother!" Shi Lu burst into tears and fell down on the edge of the kang, tears really flowed out.

"Mother, don't cry. The second sister is tired and wants to sleep." Gu Chengyu also felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. The Lu family is really good to Gu Wan, and Chunhua, who plays with Gu Wan, is always ordered by her mother to cry every day. nonstop.

But if you choose between a son and a daughter, the result is obvious, this era is so cruel.He knew that Gu Wan had known for a long time that there would be such a result. Compared to letting the fourth brother lose his cooking skills, it was not a big deal for her to be beaten, not to mention that it was just a conflict between little girls , Gu Wan just felt uncomfortable.

Lu hugged Gu Chengyu and buried her head in his neck. Gu Chengyu could feel the warm liquid soaking his front. He had never seen Lu cry so sadly.

In his previous life, Gu Chengyu was used to the warmth and coldness of human relationships since he was a child, and he was also used to the indifference, selfishness, and mutual calculation of people in the last days. All these made him like to stand on the sidelines.In order to live, he sometimes abandons his conscience and morality, and he is merciless when it comes to making choices.

Why did he have to wash his face when he returned to the team that day? Maybe it was because he was tired?I don't want to live cautiously any more, I have to look forward and backward in everything I do, it's too tiring to live alone like this.

After traveling to the Gu family, Mrs. Lu and Mr. Gu treated him very well, and he also thought that they liked him because he was a boy. What if he was a girl?

Although he also enjoys being loved by them, he does not urgently want to change the status quo of the Gu family, but regards himself as a passer-by, and only wants to wait for him to grow up, and help them get rid of poverty and become rich without revealing their space. .

But now, he really felt the helplessness of a mother.In Gu's family, each of them exists alive, they are all his relatives, and they work hard to live every day.

Gu Chengyu closed his eyes, recalling the bits and pieces of his life since time travel, and had to admit that he had become a member of the Gu family.And from now on, he will throw away the past and truly integrate into the Gu family.

"What are you two doing? Why is his mother still crying?" Father Gu came in from the outside and saw his mother-in-law crying bitterly while holding Gu Chengyu.

Hearing Papa Gu's voice, Mrs. Lu raised her head and turned her face to one side, wiping her tears with a handkerchief.

"It's nothing, you go and have a look, why did you ask the second brother to pick up his third brother, and he hasn't come back by now?" Mrs. Lu looked at the sky outside the window, and saw that it had already darkened, and she was a little worried.

Then he thought that Gu Chengchi hadn't come back yet, "The fourth brother hasn't come back either! Why is it so late today?"

Seeing that Gu Chengyu was also there, Mr. Gu didn't want to ask more questions now, he'd better ask before going to bed.

"Mom, shall I pick up fourth brother? Tell him to come back for dinner." Gu Chengyu wanted to take this opportunity to see Lin Liuer, who has such a vicious mouth at such a young age?

Gu Chengyu walked along the small road in the village to the west of the village. The sunset on the mountain side had completely set, and there were only traces of red left in the sky.Gu Chengyu admired the beautiful scenery of the countryside while walking, and let out a foul breath from his chest.

Walking to the front of a single-family house, the house in front of you is similar in layout to the Gu family. In fact, the layout of the houses in Shangling Village is similar.

However, the house in front of me looked different.First of all, it is a gray and black big tile-roofed house. This is the first time Gu Chengyu has seen an ancient big tile-roofed house. This is Li Zhenglin's house.

There are many east and west wing rooms in Lin's house. Although the walls are still made of earth bricks, it doesn't need to replace the straw every year, and there is no need to worry about rain leakage!
The roof of Gu's house is covered with thick straw. Sometimes when thunder and strong winds come, Gu Chengyu is worried that it will be blown away or collapsed.

Walking to the gate of the courtyard, Gu Chengyu was about to knock on the gate of the courtyard.But I heard a sharp female voice coming from inside.No, it was actually the voice of a girl.

"The fourth child of the Gu family, why don't you hurry up? I told you to boil water, why are you so slow? You are my second uncle's apprentice, and if you want to learn a craft, you have to serve your master. It's your job to pour tea and pour water." Don't be unconvinced, your Gu family is so poor, if your father hadn't begged my second uncle to accept you as an apprentice, do you think my second uncle could choose 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 would you do? The mud legs of the whole family are worthy of digging in the ground, and you want to learn crafts? That girl Gu Wan still wants to touch my jewelry. You deserve to marry a muddy leg. Hmph!"

As soon as Gu Chengyu heard calling his fourth brother, he stopped. He was so angry that he wanted to tremble. No wonder his fourth brother hasn't come home yet. He was serving people here, and he was insulted by others.

Gu Chengyu didn't knock on the door anymore, just pushed open the courtyard door and walked into the courtyard.As soon as he entered, he saw his fourth brother standing there with a teapot at a loss.There was also an overturned sea bowl on the small table next to it, the tea in it spilled all over the table, and it was sizzling and steaming, and a large piece of Gu Chengchi's trouser leg was wet.

Leaning against the small table in the courtyard of the main house stood an eleven or twelve-year-old girl, wearing a brand new amaranth red muslin dress and a moon white cotton skirt.The facial features are known by this gorgeous clothes, and they look a little more delicate, but this can't hide the fact that they are just ordinary.Undoubtedly, this is Lin Liuer, the eldest daughter of the Lin family who is said to like her nostrils upturned.

Lin Liuer wanted to say more, but was interrupted by the door opening.Looking sideways, I saw a four or five-year-old boy, Lin Liuer was about to lose her temper, when she took a closer look, she couldn't help but froze.She had never seen such a good-looking person, the snow-white and delicate skin shone faintly under a ray of sunlight, the brows were dotted with red, and the corners of the slightly raised lips seemed to be smiling at her.Looking up, such a pair of beautiful eyes showed a coldness.

Lin Liu'er shuddered and regained consciousness in an instant.

"Which family are you from? How can you enter someone else's house without knocking?" Lin Liuer asked with one hand on her hip, pointing at Gu Chengyu with the other.

Gu Chengyu's heart is on fire right now!His fourth brother's body has always been weak, and he has only grown up in the past two years, and he is still not very well!In the Gu family, his mother never asked Gu Chengchi to work.

He also knew that in ancient times, being an apprentice was always a job for the master, and the disciples would do the work for them.Serving the master, it is not uncommon for him to be a cow or a horse, and even the monthly money is given by the master, even if he does not give it, there is nothing to say.

After all, people teach you crafts, and there is a saying that teach apprentices, starve the master to death, so if you want to learn crafts, you have to put down your posture.But that doesn't mean that Lin Liuer is also qualified to teach his fourth brother a lesson, and 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, and I am here to ask the fourth brother to go back to have dinner."

After hearing this, Lin Liuer suddenly realized, looked at Gu Chengyu's clothes again, and sneered: "Who am I? It turns out he is the fifth child of the Gu family, no wonder." Then he looked up and down again, "They are all so poor. You Fourth brother can't even cook a pot of water well, but it's really useless, do you really think you are the young master of that rich family?" After speaking, he rolled his eyes up, and then glanced at the two brothers.
