sister-in-law

Chapter 104
It's the season when the grass grows and the warbler flies, Su Ruoli still goes to Sanyuan Hall every five days, and spends the rest of the day making her pills at home.

Gu Lanniang was relieved to take care of all chores at home.Gu Lanniang is a capable woman who can bear hardships. She not only prepares the family's food properly, but also makes a set of spring clothes for everyone with the materials that Su Ruoli bought in the town.

She wakes up early and stays late every day, not only taking care of the children but also doing the housework, but just like that, she is very contented. During these days at home, she has gained a lot of weight, and her beautiful face gradually appeared, and her quarrels are often full of satisfaction. laugh.

The child has also gained several kilograms, and it weighs heavily in his hands.

Gu Lanniang didn't know how many times she had to say good things about Su Ruoli every day, she just wanted to worship her like a bodhisattva.She is not allowed to interfere with any chores at home. Apart from making money, Su Ruoli is like a boudoir lady at home.

The war between Da Zhou and the imperial court was in full swing. Jing San, who was left behind by Li Fuan, came twice on horseback. He learned from him that Da Zhou's army had recovered the capital, and the crown prince had succeeded to the throne, and his year name was changed to Jing Yuan.Yao respected the old emperor who fled to the south as the Supreme Emperor.

After the Hu people's invasion and the Jiedu envoy's rebellion, the new emperor made up his mind to drive the Hu people back. Li Fu'an was ready to meet Gu Zhang, who went west to pursue him first.

It's just that there is no letter from the west expedition team yet.

After hearing Jing San's words, Su Ruoli was speechless.Although Luo Shi divorced her, Gu Zhang has always treated her well, no matter what, she didn't want him to die in battle from the bottom of her heart.

Regardless of whether he will obey Luo Shi's words or not when he comes back, at least for now, she still has a slight affection for him.Although this relationship will not cause any spark of love between her and him, given time, maybe the two of them can really live a lifetime.

After sending Jing San back, Su Ruoli still lived an ordinary life.

Soon, there was good news.

At the same time as the new emperor ascended the throne and amnesty the world, the Enke exam was also scheduled to take place in the summer of this year.

According to the rules, the big competition is only held once every three years. Although the Hu people have invaded and the country is still unstable, Enke has brought infinite hope to scholars this time.

So is Gu Mo.

After hearing this letter, I was as happy as something.

After years of studying hard, he finally found it useful, how could he not be very excited?
On the day Su Ruoli heard the letter, she asked Jing San to go to the city to inquire about any great Confucian scholars. She planned to spend some money to ask Gu Mo to go to the city to have a restaurant and discuss with others.

It's just that this sum of money is not a small amount, I'm afraid it will cost more than a hundred taels.

Su Ruoli couldn't afford that much at the moment, so he thought about waiting for two days to go to Sanyuantang and the shopkeeper to pay in advance first.

Gu Mo was very ashamed, he just felt that he was useless, and had to be supported by a little girl who was younger than him and had nothing to do with him.

But if you don’t have money, you can’t go to the library, and if you don’t have money, you can’t go to the exam.He doesn't work hard in his limbs and doesn't know the grain, so where can he collect so much money?

Thinking of the last time his mother came back, she said that Li Daguan in the city wanted to give him money to prepare for the exam. He felt that it was his mother's selling her body in exchange for it.

For a moment, he was burned inside, and he just felt that he was really useless.Looking around at a loss in my heart, I can't see hope.

In a chaotic state, he wandered from home to the village, walking with his eyes blank all the way, like a sleepwalker.

At the head of the village, Gu Mo was stopped by his second uncle Gu Hongxi.Seeing him like that, Gu Hongxi thought that his nephew was bewitched, so he waved his hands in front of his eyes, "Hey, I said boy, why are you fooling around?"

Only then did Gu Mo consciously go back into the basket. Seeing that it was his second uncle, his face was completely calm. He just greeted him and turned around to go home.

Gu Hongxi is an old ghost who has lived for many years, and he knew what Gu Mo was covering up at a glance.He was not in a hurry, he just followed Gu Mo slowly, chatting while walking.

"Mo'er, it's not easy for your sister-in-law. A girl who is only thirteen or fourteen years old has to support such a big family!"

These words were actually made by him. Although Gu Hongxi is an asshole, he is not stupid and can see it clearly.How could his big brother and his big family live in a big tile house and eat fine rice and white noodles if it wasn't for marrying a daughter-in-law worth two taels of silver?

Not only do they raise a few underage sisters-in-law and uncles, but they even live at home with their eldest sisters and nieces.

The food, clothing and shelter of this big family are difficult for ordinary Orion families to support. She is a weak little girl, not only allows them to eat well and live well, but even comes out with brand new clothes.

The materials of the clothes were still new in the town, and they almost caught the eyeballs of Gu Hongxi's mother-in-law, Mrs. Zhang.

For this reason, Gu Hongxi was not scolded by his mother-in-law at home, thinking that he was capable, only one son and one daughter were raised like burnt papers.

Gu Hongxi couldn't sleep late at night, so he thought about how to go to the old master to find some good things, but Su Ruoli looked closely at the door.It's not easy for the elder brother to be pissed off by the elder sister-in-law. I really hope that I can get some benefits by helping with the purchase. Who knows that Su Ruoli's little hoof still doesn't like him, and he would rather believe in that irrelevant clan. Uncle, also refused to hand over the work to him.

The anger in his heart, he held it in his heart every day and couldn't get rid of it, no, he just went for a stroll in the village when he ran into Gu Mo.

This child is obedient as a child, not as powerful as Gu Zhang, he would punch a few times at every turn, scaring him so much that he dare not step aside.

Therefore, he felt that the time had come, as long as a gap was opened in Gu Mo's body, he would not have to worry about being unable to talk.

He said those words with emotion and admiration, but Gu Mo took the bait, and spit out after taking his words, "Second uncle, you know that my family is like that, if it weren't for sister-in-law, we would have broken up a long time ago." Mother still tortured my sister-in-law so much and divorced her. Now, she has nothing to do with our family. If she hadn't been kind-hearted, how could she take us in?"

As he spoke, his long and slender thick black eyebrows were tightly frowned, and he inserted his hands into his thick black hair and rubbed them vigorously, "It's all my fault that it's useless, as long as I use as much force as my elder brother, I can still do it anyway." Help her. At least she doesn't have to work so hard!"

Seeing that Gu Mo was willing to speak, Gu Hongxi couldn't help being overjoyed, and asked quietly following Gu Mo's words, "Don't blame yourself, Mo'er, it's all your mother's fault for all the hatred. If you're so good, you have to divorce him. Such a capable woman, how can she be willing? Hey!"

She patted her thighs pretendingly, and sighed. Gu Hongxi secretly glanced at Gu Mo from the corner of her eyes, "You are a good student. When my elder brother was alive, I also intended to let you be promoted in reading. Although now Your mother divorced your sister-in-law. Fortunately, the child has a conscience and didn't drive you out. You have no worries. What else is there to worry about? I heard that Enke is in June this year. If you don't go back to study hard, when the time comes At any rate, I'm off the stage, I'll save face for your father, and I'm worthy of my poor elder brother."

Gu Hongxi's words were sincere and full of elder demeanor, which really moved Gu Mo who had not yet grown up but had to treat himself as an adult.

After all, he is young, and he only cares about studying and making progress on weekdays, and he didn't know that when Gu Zhang built the house, his second uncle went out to steal things. Now that he was coaxed by Gu Hongxi with a few good words, he really opened his heart to this second uncle up.

"Second Uncle doesn't know, that's why I'm sad. Seeing Enke is coming soon, but I don't even have to worry about the end, what can I do to make Dad look good? How can I be worthy of my sister-in-law's sincerity?"

When the young man spoke of his sadness, there were faint tears in his eyes, but because of the intention in front of him, he managed to suppress it.

Gu Hongxi's heart skipped a beat, he stretched out a fat palm, and patted Gu Mo's shoulder with a kind and gentle look, "Okay, Mo'er, isn't your sister-in-law attending the clinic in Sanyuantang?" ? Why can't you scrape together such a small amount of money? Could it be that she is not willing to give it to you?"

He stared closely at Gu Mo's eyes, and saw that Gu Mo shook his head impatiently, "No, no, she is not such a person. She only has a little money, and she builds a house and manages our big family. Food, where can I get more? She also said that she would borrow some from the shopkeeper of Sanyuantang to send me to the restaurant in the city."

Gu Mo spoke urgently and quickly, as if he couldn't wait to deny Gu Hongxi's words.

Gu Hongxi's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and a plan was quietly formed.

"It's good to be brave." He slowly led Gu Mo, "It's just Mo'er, if your sister-in-law borrows so much money from others, wouldn't she have to do work for others? We old men, where are you?" How can you let such a little girl give money?"

His tone was relaxed and cheerful, as if the dozens of taels of silver did not take it seriously in his eyes.

Gu Mo was a little dazed, and murmured, "But where can I get the money? Last time my mother said that Mr. Li in the city would give it to me, but where can I get that kind of money?"

He looked at Gu Hongxi blankly, as if waiting for him to give himself an idea.

"Of course we can't take that kind of shameful money!" Gu Hongxi shook his head and waved his hands, with a look of righteous indignation, "Don't forget, your father was really mad at you by your mother."

He stared at Gu Mo closely with a pair of bull's eyes, and really put on the posture of an elder, "We must never take her money, remember?"

Gu Mo nodded with a ignorant face, but saw Gu Hongxi suddenly approaching him, and whispered into his ear mysteriously: "There is a way for you to quickly raise money for the exam..."

"Is... what is the solution?" Gu Mo was a little anxious, and asked cautiously.

Gu Hongxi looked up and looked around, and when he saw no one was watching, he chuckled softly, "You'll find out when you come with me, I'm sure you can earn enough money in a day."

After all, he took Gu Mo's hand and walked towards the village.

Under Yin Zi's troubles, Gu Mo followed him by accident.

　Guess everyone, what method will Gu Hongxi use to deceive Gu Mo?
