Chapter 32 Drinking the Ecstasy Soup

On the way, Liu Yuanyuan pulled his sleeve and asked, "Mr. sir, why do you think my parents went into business? Weren't they so repulsive to us doing business before? How come it's their turn and they don't have any taboos at all?"

Gao Xuan couldn't hear the complaints from his wife. He was in a very complicated mood at the moment, and he didn't know why his parents did this.

Without saying a word, he met the village chief and his entourage in the village, and the village chief seemed to want to say something to him.

Gao Xuan didn't notice, waved casually, passed the other party and hurried home.

Next to the village chief were Wang Chuan and Hu Lian, who were relatively prominent in the village. The village chief looked at his back with some confusion.

"Why is Gao Xuan leaving in such a hurry?"

"Maybe there is something wrong." Wang Chuan explained helpfully, then turned to the village chief and said, "Our matter is relatively big anyway, so it is more important to discuss it with Uncle Gao."

"The Gao family is not divided. No matter what Gao Xuan is doing, Uncle Gao must have the right to speak."

The village chief touched his beard and nodded, "That's true. However, you heard that Gao Xuan is doing a lot of business in the county. Is this news true?"

"Don't come to your door when the time comes and find out that it is inconsistent with the facts. Wouldn't that offend someone?"

Hu Lian assured from the side, "It must be true. My brother-in-law runs a grocery store in the county town. Can his news be false?"

"What's more, I have seen Gao Xuan and his wife staying in an inn in the county in the past few days. They have to pay dozens of pennies for a day's stay. How can the villagers in our village be willing to spend this money?"

"Besides, I heard that Gao Xuan and his wife have contacts with many wealthy families. They must be doing big business. Otherwise, how could there be so many people related to them?"

What Hu Lian said made some sense. The village chief touched his chin, raised his hand and said, "Let's go to other houses first, and then go to Gao's house later. We can talk about anything together to save trouble,"

Hu Lian and Wang Chuan nodded, and they followed the village chief to visit other families.

Here, Gao Xuan and Liu Yuanyuan returned to the Gao family.

As soon as I walked into the yard, I heard laughter coming from the kitchen.

Gao Xuan walked to the door suspiciously and saw that his mother and elder brother were putting away the dishes inside. Xiang Xi was still sitting behind the stove and lighting the fire. It seemed that nothing had changed much at home, but he was still thinking about what Aunt He said when he met him in the town. thing.

"Mom, I'm back." Gao Xuan greeted him proactively.

Gao Mu's laughter stopped suddenly, she looked up at him, nodded and said, "Oh, I'm back. I'll have dinner soon. Do you have any taboos?"

Gao Xuan shook his head subconsciously, "No, we don't have any taboos."

Liu Yuanyuan heard this as soon as she walked to the kitchen door, and without giving Gao Xuan face, she directly said to Gao Xuan, "Mom, I don't like spicy food, and I don't like pepper either."

"By the way, are you going to make pumpkin? I like to eat pumpkin rice, thank you."

"It's best to make some rice cakes." Liu Yuanyuan spoke unceremoniously and stated all her requirements.

Gao Mu's expression was a little subtle and she responded, "In that case, then come over and cook dinner."

"I'm worried that what we cook is not to your liking. Wouldn't it be a waste of rations?"

Liu Yuanyuan didn't seem to expect that Gao Mu would refute her and even asked her to cook, because she hated cooking the most.

So much oil fume is not only very harmful to the hands, but if you cook too much, won’t it turn you into a yellow-faced woman?She was riding a tiger and couldn't get off, so she subconsciously looked at Gao Xuan.

Gao Xuan didn't notice this little thing and said casually, "Mom, it's okay. I'll eat whatever you do. Where can I choose?"

Not only did Liu Yuanyuan not get a satisfactory answer, but she was also tricked by Gao Xuan. Her face instantly turned green, she flicked her sleeves, turned around and went back to the wing.

Gao Xuan didn't know why, he didn't know why she was angry. He originally wanted to chase her to ask for details, but he saw Gao Gao walking out of the hall out of the corner of his eye. He subconsciously stood up straight and shouted guiltily, "Dad."

Father Gao's wise eyes looked at his face for a long time, frowned, and turned around and walked into the house first, "Second brother, come with me. I have something to tell you."

Father Gao's voice was serious and unquestionable, and Gao declared war and followed him in cautiously.

Sitting down on the stool obediently, looking at Dad Gao above him, he suddenly thought of the 200 taels of silver he borrowed from Guo Laosan in the county. He must have told his father, otherwise his father would His face won't be so ugly.

He felt a little uncomfortable.

Father Gao tapped his fingers on the dining table and stared at his face, not missing the slightest change in emotion.
The tone was stiff, "Second brother, just tell me the truth. What did you and your wife do in the county?"

Gao Xuan was stunned and blurted out what was in his heart and asked, "Dad, didn't eldest brother tell you?"

Seeing Gao Gao's puzzled expression, he knew the answer. He felt a little guilty for a moment, feeling that he had wrongly blamed his elder brother. The anger that originally rose in his heart turned into guilt, and his momentum weakened.

He said, "I... Yuanyuan and I are preparing to do a big business in the county town, so..."

His voice paused subconsciously.

Father Gao slapped his hand on the wooden table, causing it to creak, and asked sternly, "Why don't you tell me honestly, what's going on?"

"Big business, what big business."

Gao Xuan was so frightened that his whole body trembled, and he instinctively argued, "Dad, this is really a big business. I won't lie to you, but in order to expand the scale, Yuanyuan and I took the initiative to find someone to borrow 200 taels of silver."

"What?" Dad Gao was so angry that his face turned red and his chest was heaving, as if he was going to faint from anger in the next second.

Seeing that Gao Xuan refused to admit his mistake, he was so angry that he raised his palm and wanted to hit him.

At this time, Liu Yuanyuan rushed in from the door, blocked in front of Gao Xuan, and faced Gao Dad directly. Her voice was sharp and her attitude was strong, "Dad, don't reprimand Gao Xuan, I also made the decision in this matter, And it’s also for the good of my family.”

"Don't worry, if you complete this business, you will definitely earn hundreds of taels of silver."

"The 200 taels of silver will be just a small thing then. If you don't believe it, just give us half a month and I will prove it to you."

"Or, dad, you don't even give us time to prove it, so you think we will definitely fail?" Liu Yuanyuan asked repeatedly.

Father Gao's face was livid, and he fell down on the stool, with anger in his eyes, staring at Gao Xuan without saying a word, just waiting for him to express his position.

But Gao Xuan obviously disappointed him. He didn't dare to look into Gao's eyes. He clenched his fists slightly with his hands at his sides. For a long time, he couldn't say a word if he wanted to give in.

What else doesn’t Dad Gao understand?
My second son, since getting married, has been like drinking someone's ecstasy soup, and he has been obsessed with confronting him.
