Chapter 917
Gu Jiujiu really didn't want to move anymore. When Shen Kuo said this, Gu Jiujiu nodded and said, "Yes."

The next day, Gu Jiujiu asked Yan to go to the village to find a diligent woman to move them.

The seven or eight women were all diligent, and soon, Gu Jiujiu and the others moved almost all the things in their house.

The house in front was vacant. Gu Jiujiu and Shen Kuo had agreed before that when the brick house in the back was repaired, the thatched house in front would be demolished.

So, not long after Gu Jiujiu and the others moved to the new house, they dismantled the thatched cottage in front into a flat floor.

The empty space is used as a yard together.

In the courtyard, Gu Jiujiu asked Father Zhang to build a small gazebo. After dinner at night, he could enjoy the cool air in the small gazebo.

After the small pavilion was repaired, Shen Kuo planted the pomegranate flowers that Gu Jiujiu liked around the pavilion.

"Sir, here." After Shen Kuo planted the flowers, Gu Jiujiu handed him a clean handkerchief to wipe his hands.

Shen Kuo smiled and took the veil from Gu Jiujiu's hand, "Xiao Jiu, I will find a carpenter to make you a swing frame in this yard in two days."

"Yeah." Gu Jiujiu smiled and nodded.

Brother Yan has been going to the school for a few months, and he will be back from Master Juren's school soon.

This time, Gu Jiujiu and Shen Kuo didn't need to pick up Brother Yan. Rong Qi was at Jin'an City, so they just asked Rong Qi to help them bring Brother Yan back.

On this day, Mrs. Leng and Mrs. Zhu came to Gu Jiujiu's house suddenly. Seeing that Mrs. Zhu and Mrs. Leng looked unhappy, Gu Jiujiu asked, "Grandma, auntie, what happened?"

"Xiao Jiu, something went wrong with your eldest cousin's marriage." Shi Zhu sighed and looked at Gu Jiujiu anxiously.

"What?" Yan looked at Zhu with a puzzled expression, and asked, "My eldest nephew and Yunniang grew up together, and Yunniang's brother and sister-in-law are also good-natured. Surely there won't be any troubles again, so how could there be a problem with the marriage of the well-behaved eldest nephew?"

"Yes." After Yan's finished speaking, Gu Jiujiu also looked puzzled, "My mother is right, it's very good, how could something go wrong in the eldest cousin's marriage?"

"The thing is like this, Yunniang's eldest brother has an old problem. Every time before, Yunniang's eldest brother just went to the pharmacy and prescribed a few medicines to take it. However, this time Yunniang's eldest brother took it. After taking the medicine, not only did he not recover, but he lay unconscious on the bed and would talk nonsense from time to time. Yunniang came to my house yesterday and said that his elder brother had already vomited blood. If the disease is cured, his eldest brother may not be cured."

Leng explained a few words briefly, and continued: "Yunniang was brought up by her elder brother since she was a child, and his feelings for her elder brother are the same as his feelings for her father. If there is something about Yunniang's elder brother, Yun Mother definitely doesn't want to see it."

Hearing what Leng said, Gu Jiujiu secretly thought that Yunniang was doing something for her elder brother, right?
Sure enough, just as Gu Jiujiu was thinking about it, Mrs. Leng looked at Gu Jiujiu and said, "Xiaojiu, the doctor said that Yunniang's eldest brother's illness will take at least 1000 taels of silver to be cured. Yunniang came to our house to borrow it." Money, our family only has more than 100 taels of silver, and we can’t get any more. Yunniang’s family has borrowed from everywhere, and they have collected more than 100 taels, and there is still a shortfall of more than 800 taels. In order to save her elder brother, Yunniang voluntarily Selling herself to a wealthy family to be a servant girl, Yunniang is willing to sign a death contract in order to get some money."
