The Rebirth of Space: the Lucky Girl From a Farm Family

Chapter 4 Group Favor

Gu Huayu first said hello to her grandfather, and then to her eldest and second uncle.

Gu Huaidong was stunned, put down his teacup, looked at Gu Huayu, and asked gently: "Is Xiaoyu feeling better?"

In Gu Huaidong's heart, his little granddaughter was so quiet that no one could remember her existence. She had never said hello to anyone so loudly.

Gu Huayu leaned back and said, "Thank you, grandpa, for caring. Xiaoyu is much better."

Gu Defang said with a smile: "Xiaoyu looks good today. It seems to be getting better."

"This person can't be idle, otherwise he will get sick. Look at Chengjuan, who helps the family all day long. She has such a strong body! She is not like Xiaoyu, who is sick and crooked all day long."

Guan, the daughter-in-law of Gu Chengdong, the eldest son of the eldest son, walked over from the other side of the wing carrying a basket and said as she walked.

"Hey, sister-in-law, what are you talking about? I have a good life, but it is the fate of the young lady to give birth to her!" Wang Xiu'e, the daughter-in-law of the eldest son of the second wife, Gu Chengnan, took over the words in a strange manner.

Gu Chengjuan glanced at Mrs. Wang, looked at Gu Huayu worriedly, and softly comforted: "Xiaoyu, ignore her, she never has anything nice to say."

Gu Huayu saw the expressions of several people and smiled at Gu Chengjuan, "Yeah, I know."

In Gu Huayu's memory, she was the youngest among her peers in the Gu family. The elders, brothers and sisters above her all doted on her, and she was a veritable group favorite.

Wang always spoke harshly, but considering that Wang protected her son Dong Geer closely when she died, and was considered a mother who loved her family and children, she didn't bother to argue with her.

"What's wrong with a young lady? Everyone knows that Xiaoyu has been weak since she was a child. As a family, brothers and sisters, please don't say such hurtful words." Gu Chengdong said back to Wang while washing his hands.

“What hurtful words, I’m just telling the truth. Looking at our Shangtai Village, which girl has such a good life?

At the age of ten, he did not stick to the sun and spring water. For those who didn’t know, I thought the old Gu family was going to cultivate a female champion! It's like raising an ancestor. "

Wang had been suppressing this resentment in her heart for a long time, and now she started talking about it, so she just said it out loud.

"You are the only one who talks a lot! Xiaoyu is weak, don't you know? You're like a chicken with a small belly." Gu Chengnan came out of the side room and yelled at Wang.

Gu Huayu looked at the eldest and second brothers who were protecting her, and a warm current surged from her heart and spread to her whole body in an instant.

Wang was reprimanded by Gu Chengnan in public. She felt a little embarrassed on her face. She turned around and yelled at Gu Chengnan, "I'm so stupid? Gu Chengnan, do you have a conscience? If you don't stand by me, forget it. You are still speaking for this little ancestor."

Your family couldn't afford the bride price at the beginning. It was because I begged my parents that I didn't ask for your bride price.

Last year, my grandfather fell ill and we didn’t have any money for medicine. I went back to my parents’ house to borrow some money. In your eyes, I have become a small-minded person, huh? "

　　When Mrs. Wang mentioned the betrothal gift, Gu Chengnan was speechless.

In the year when Gu Chengnan proposed to get married, Wan Shi, the old lady of the Gu family, was seriously ill. In order to treat Wan Shi, the family borrowed it from relatives and friends. It's a pity that Wan passed away and could not be saved in the end.

 Wang married into the Gu family out of fervor and filial piety.

The air seemed to be solidified, and everyone looked at Wang Xiu'e.

Wang Xiu'e is the daughter of Carpenter Wang from Guan Village, east of Shangtai Village.

Carpenter Wang is an easy-going person. He is always asked to make doors, windows and furniture for anyone who repairs or builds a house in eight villages.

 Hence, the life of the Wang family is much more generous than that of other people.

Carpenter Wang works outside and comes into contact with many people, so he has a deeper understanding of people and things.

The reason why he is willing to marry his daughter to the impoverished Gu family is not only because of the good family tradition of the Gu family, the unity and friendship of the people, but also because of the talent and learning of Gu Dechang, the youngest member of the Gu family.

At that time, Gu Dechang was a well-known talent in Shicheng. He was admitted as a scholar at the age of fourteen. Three years later, he took part in the provincial examination and became the youngest scholar in the history of Shicheng County.

 Unfortunately, I had bad luck. When I went to the capital to take the exam, I got into an accident and became disabled. I was no longer able to pursue an official career.

Wang Carpenter admired Gu Dechang's talent and learning very much.

In Wang Carpenter's view, Gu Dechang was truly talented and learned. Even if he was not destined for an official career, being able to teach the children of the Gu family at home would be a blessing that no one else could ask for. Therefore, he devoted himself to marrying his daughter into the Gu family.

Gu Huayu saw her family members' faces darkening, and sighed secretly, alas, her emotional intelligence is really weak.

Wang Xiu'e said this in public, which was clearly a slap in the Gu family's face.

Gu Chengjuan couldn't see her brother being upset, and said angrily: "Second sister-in-law is right. Our family has no bride price, and second sister-in-law is not married to Baba. It's so boring to talk about this now!"

Wang Xiu'e's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. Just when she was about to choke Gu Chengjuan, Fang stood at the door of the kitchen and shouted with a straight face: "It's time to eat!"

Gu Chengjuan glared at Wang Xiu'e, and without forgetting a cold "hum", she turned to hold Gu Hua's hand and said, "Xiaoyu, let's go eat."

Gu Huayu turned to look at Gu Huaidong and shouted, "Grandpa, it's time to eat."

Gu Huaidong straightened his gown, nodded and said, "Okay, let's eat."

Gu Huayu took Gu Chengjuan and waited beside her, waiting for her grandfather, eldest uncle and second uncle to get up and walk to the dining hall, then followed behind her.

Gu Chengjuan was stunned and turned to look at Gu Huayu. Why did she feel that Xiaoyu had changed?

There was too much room for the family to sit at one table, so two dining tables were set up in the dining hall, and men and women ate at separate tables.

Gu Huaidong took the men to sit at the table by the window, and Mrs. Qin took the women to the table in the corner.

Gu Huayu saw three dishes on the table, pickled cabbage and tofu, boiled pumpkin, and stir-fried shredded potatoes with dried chilies.

There is no smell at all. It seems that life at home is very poor.

Gu Huayu sighed in her heart. The top priority was to make money for her family. She has many ways to make money, but how can she make her family accept it without being abrupt?

When everyone sat down, Gu Huaidong ordered: "After dinner, De Fang took Chengdong to take out the dung from the cattle pen and pile it up by the bamboo forest.

Dehai took Chengnan to carry the compost from the edge of the drying field to the new field. Look at the sky, it will still rain tonight. If the weather is nice, we will plow the new fields tomorrow.

The De Fang family took Guan and Wang to weed the corn fields in Maopo. After a while, Dechang and the others were out of school and asked them to help weed the corn fields.

The Dehai family will pick out the soybeans from the basket in the west room. They will go to the market tomorrow and sell the soybeans. In addition to the medicine for the Dehai family, they will also buy some oil and salt. "

　Farmers work at sunrise and rest at sunset. The family only gets together when eating. Everything at home is arranged at the dining table.

 The names of Gu Defang, Gu Dehai, Qin and Fang nodded one by one.

Qingsui nestled in Guan's arms and whispered: "Mom, I'm hungry."

ˆ˜Guan murmured comfort.

Wang Xiu'e was pouring soup from the pumpkin bowl. When she heard that she was going to give Wan Shi medicine again, she put the pumpkin bowl back on the table with dissatisfaction.

He muttered: "Our family not only needs to provide for idle people, but also needs to keep a medicine jar."

Although Wang Xiu'e's voice was low, she was the only one speaking in the room at this time, and everyone heard her words clearly.
