Chapter 70 announced reading
After everyone had finished eating, Mrs. Gu ordered Mrs. Lu to take the two daughter-in-laws to clean up the dishes and wash them up later. He has something important to announce, and everyone must be present. This is a major event for the Gu family.

Everyone in the Gu family was very surprised. Could it be that something big is about to happen?Gu Chengyi thought about going to the county town to sell honeysuckle, and he felt that the blood in his whole body was boiling, which was related to whether the third child should serve corvee or not.If honeysuckle can really buy money, then the corvee tax can be collected, the third child will not go to corvee, and he doesn't have to feel guilty; Yes, he has two sons.

If Gu Chengyu knew what his second brother was thinking, he would definitely say that you are overthinking, second brother. Long before going to the county seat, Li Langzhong had already determined that honeysuckle could be sold for money, and even bought five catties.

"Cough!" Papa Gu cleared his throat when he saw that everyone was seated.Gu Chengyi's heart tightened, here we come!

"I have a few things to say today. First of all, the honeysuckle picked a few days ago has been sold for silver coins. I went to the county to sell it this morning. Mr. Li knew shopkeeper Liu of Huichuntang. For Li Langzhong's sake, shopkeeper Liu In addition, the quality of the honeysuckle this time is good, so I gave one hundred coins per catty, a total of 41 catties, and left five catties for Li Langzhong, and sold the rest. I gave 95 Wen a catty and sold it for 470 Wu Wen. I gave all the money, and I put it away. This little treasure of honeysuckle said that I can pick two more stubbles, but the later quality is worse, and there is no second crop. It's too much once, but you earn a lot of money, you all shut your mouth tightly, don't go out and talk nonsense to me." Mrs. Gu first explained the matter of honeysuckle, and the main event is about to come .

When Gu Chengyu heard that the honeysuckle was really sold for silver coins, and more than four taels, he was also excited. He didn't expect that honeysuckle could really be sold for money, and with the last two times, it would be possible to sell it for seven or eight taels of silver, right?Then the corvee tax should be enough. Knowing the result, the body also relaxes.Unexpectedly, another news that came immediately made him almost collapse.

"One more thing, Xiaobao is going to be five years old this year. The two of us have already discussed it and decided to send Xiaobao to study." Father Gu did not hesitate and told the matter of studying. He didn't want to delay any longer. up.

Mrs. Lu didn't speak since Gu's father opened his mouth, he just sat on the kang thinking about something.Gu Chengyu had expected that speaking out about this matter would definitely trigger a protest.

This news is like pouring boiling water into a frying pan, frying the pan.The He family couldn't wait the most, "What? Dad, our family didn't even collect the corvee tax, so you said you want to send his uncle to study? Where did our family get the money to study? Ouch! It's really killing me If there is a stepmother, there will be a stepfather! This is to suck the blood of the whole family! I am dead! Let me die! This family will be a cow and a horse for the future, what are you doing these days? It's time!" He yelled as he sat on the ground and patted his thighs.

Gu Chengyu also felt that such a decision was not good, so he could talk about selling ginseng first, so that everyone would not be so repulsive. He didn't want to test his second brother, no matter what the result was, it would hurt his feelings after all.He looked up and saw that even Erya and the others showed resentment, took a deep breath, and really wanted to say that studying is his own business, he will be responsible for earning money, and will not use their money at all.

Gu Chengli knew about this a long time ago, and he also knew that there were 500 taels of silver, so this matter had no impact on him.But Fang didn't know!Fang felt her whole body was icy, and she was full of despair for the future. The Gu family had a tight life, and even Gu Xing's rations were what she saved by tightening her belt.If the younger brother-in-law wants to study, then all the money the Gu family has will be available to the younger brother-in-law in the future. The money his father earns is far from enough for him to study, and the little boy who slips behind must rely on his father and the second child?As the second sibling said, when will this day be the end?The family can't be separated, and after being married to the Gu family for so many years, they haven't touched a single coin.Fang Shi sat on a stool beside her in a daze, her whole body lost her spirits, and even her waist, which was already too tired to straighten up, seemed even more hunched.

After finishing speaking, Gu Lao didn't care about other people, but just stared at Gu Chengyi.At this moment, Gu Chengyi was surprisingly calm, with his head down, not seeing his expression.

"Father, have you and mother made a decision?" After waiting for a while, Gu Chengyi's voice finally rang out, but the tone of his words was a bit hoarse and trembling.

"Yes, Xiaobao is thin and not suitable for digging in the ground. Your mother and I want to send him to study. What do you say? Your elder brother has already agreed. The third and fourth children can also talk about it." Gu Lao thinks The third and fourth children should not object, but if he has any thoughts in his heart, he can't control so much, and it's not suitable to think about them now.

"Father!" Gu Chengyi raised his head, shouted at Papa Gu, then stood up, with an uncontrollable anger flashing in his eyes, "I just want to ask, are my elder brother and I your sons? Have you ever thought about us?"

Such a hoarse roar made Gu Lao's hand holding the cigarette stick shake, and Gu Chengyu's heart could not be calm, he didn't want to listen any more, so he decided to stop, "Second brother!"

I just called my second brother, and wanted to tell him not to worry about money.Gu Chengyi suddenly turned around, and Gu Chengyu was startled by the ferocious expression on his face, "Don't interrupt, the adults are talking, do you have a place for your little one to interrupt?"

Gu Chengyu was speechless for a moment, he actually saw jealousy, even hatred in the eyes of his second brother?Such eyes are directly facing him, making him shudder.

Mrs. Lu didn't want to interrupt at first, but unexpectedly the youngest son was scolded by the second. "Second, what are you talking about? Are you going to eat your brother? So fierce? Is that how you talk to your father?"

Gu Chengyi didn't want to talk to Mrs. Lu, he just wanted to know how to solve this matter, he would not agree anyway.

Papa Gu calmed down, the second child really hated them all, let him live together, and there may be accidents in the future. "Second, do you disagree?"

"Father, you know what's going on in our family. How much money does my uncle's brother Hua spend on studying in a year? This is still not the end of the exam, otherwise it will cost more money. I calculated it, and our family has no money. , Where did Lao Wu get the money to study? By borrowing?" At this time, Gu Chengyi calmed down a little after analyzing it, even if Mrs. Lu wanted Lao Wu to go to school and the family had no money, would his father agree?It is impossible to borrow money every time, right?Everyone knows the truth of not saving the poor.Thinking about going to the county seat today, Gu Chengyi became suspicious again. Is there something here that he doesn't know?Or did his father find a way to make money again?Suspicious eyes flicked across Papa Gu, and fell on Gu Chengyu again.

When Gu Chengyu saw that Gu Chengyi, who was still furious just now, calmed down all of a sudden, and was still looking at him and his father, he thought that it was the second brother who became suspicious.well!He should have persuaded his father not to try it long ago, so as not to cause suspicion in the family.However, he also had to admire his second brother's acumen. Just because of this acumen, he would become a character in the future. To be hated by such a person would always be hard to guard against.
