The old man was very angry, and the old lady said: "Look, my father, I said that the old lady secretly gave all the money to the eldest wife. Look, a child like Gu Liang has so much money to buy so much candy." Li said indignantly. Gu Changping was a little angry when he heard his wife say this about his mother, so he defended the old lady and said: "My eldest brother and I are both born by my mother, and we haven't separated the family. How could I give all the money to my eldest brother?" Li glanced at her husband who was so nervous and continued to explain: " The old lady is unfair and favors the eldest. Haven't you heard that the eldest and the youngest are treasures, and the middle is a weed? If the old lady doesn't give money, where will your nephew get the money to buy candy? "

Gu Changan was still rational and continued to explain to his wife, "Last time, didn't the nephew pick that Ganoderma lucidum and gave all the money to his mother? Maybe he still has money left to buy candy?"

Li was quite dissatisfied with her husband who was devoted to her mother, but she couldn't get angry. She could only roll her eyes and look outside. "Look, look, your good nephew. He would rather give such good maltose to other children than to your daughter." Li said indignantly, and at this time Gu Liang was picking out Gu Dani and Gu Erni and asked them to dig calamus to exchange tomorrow.

"They all exchanged for it with the things in their backpacks. And you see, not only our daughter didn't get it, but also Dani, Gu Liang's sister, didn't she give it to him!" Gu Changan was open-minded and thought it was okay. They exchanged for things, and he didn't give it to his sister for free, so why would he give it to his daughter?

Li was furious with her stupid husband at the moment, but she couldn't find fault with Gu Liang for not even giving it to his sister. She changed the subject again and said sadly, "Alas, I can see that I have the lowest status in your family. The old lady just wants to see that I can't give birth to a boy, so she can't let them have a grandson. The money and land in the family will definitely belong to the old family in the end. We may have to rely on the big family to live in the future."

At this time, Li's words were quite desolate, and her whole body was twisted to pretend to be weak and unable to take care of herself. So she spoke in a hoarse voice, trying to arouse her husband's pity for the mother-in-law bullying her daughter-in-law.

However, in Gu Changan's eyes, his wife was often lazy and didn't work, and she was greedy for food, so her figure had long been bloated. This artificial posture gave him goose bumps. Especially now that his wife was still a "dead clamp", he felt even more uncomfortable.

Gu Changan put away his discomfort and felt that his wife was thinking too much. He quickly explained seriously: "Wife, don't worry. Mother has said many times that she doesn't mind you giving birth to a daughter, and that you are still young and have plenty of opportunities to give birth to a son. She even told me in private that she wanted me to persuade you well so that you don't think too much."

Li felt that her husband was simply stubborn and only knew to listen to the words of the old lady Gu's mother, and she didn't listen to a word of her own words.

Seeing that she still couldn't get her husband to stand on her side after saying so much, Li stopped stammering and immediately resumed her hoarse voice and said angrily: "Your mother said something nice, saying that she didn't mind that I couldn't give birth to a son. I guess if I wasn't still young, she would have sent me back home and let you marry a new wife. None of you men are good. You see, after I married into your family, I worked day and night. You see, I'm thin......"

Li looked at her belly and took back the words that she had lost weight from working.

At this time, the air was full of embarrassment. Li felt that she didn't seem to lose weight from working, but became fatter. Gu Changan waited obediently for his wife to continue speaking.

The air became quieter. Li finally lost her temper and said angrily: "Eat, eat, eat. You only know how to eat. These are the walnuts my mother's family gave me. If you want to eat them, let your loving mother give them to you. Don't eat mine."

After saying this, Li immediately took away the pile of walnuts on Gu Changan's side, and even the two that he was about to eat. She took them out one by one and put them in the basket of walnuts, and then locked the basket in her dowry box.

After doing all this, Li still felt angry. She turned her back on Gu Changan in bed and ignored him.

Gu Changan never understood his wife. It was obviously her who said it first. It was obviously her who asked him to come over and eat walnuts with the two of them hiding in the room. It was obviously her who asked him to eat walnuts and not to tell others about it.

She was the one who said that her mother despised her for not being able to give birth to a son, and she went to comfort her...

The result is what it is now. I have a straight mind and don't understand these twists and turns. After thinking for a long time, I still don't know why my wife is angry, so Gu Changan can only leave and continue to do his unfinished work.

At this time, Gu Liang had already replaced the calamus for today, and the fallen calamus was piled up in front of the door of Gu's house.

Gu Liang was ready to spread out these calamus to dry, so he took out the bamboo drying mat from home, spread it in a corner of the door, and then scattered the calamus rhizomes on it.

It is afternoon now, and it should be best to dry things in the morning, but the calamus was fished out of the water. Gu Liang was afraid that things with water would be easily moldy if they were piled together in this weather.

While Gu Liang was still spreading the food, the old lady and the old man came back from the field. The old people walked and discussed what vegetables to plant this year and how much to plant.

The two saw Gu Liang drying some tree roots at the door, and asked Gu Liang in confusion.

But before Gu Liang could speak, Li's voice came over, still in a loud and hoarse voice.

"Nephew, what are you drying? Let me help you."

Gu Liang thought that his second aunt saw that Old Lady Gu and the others had returned, and was afraid that Old Lady Gu would say that he didn't work, so he was cramming at the last minute and competing for performance on the spot. So Gu Liang didn't mind, and at the same time, he was ready to help Li cover up and said: "Second Aunt, this is the dried calamus, which is the root of the things that grow in the river. Please help me, there are too many here."

Old Lady Gu was even more confused. Why did her eldest grandson suddenly dig this up and asked: "Liang'er, why did you dig these up? You can't eat them."

Gu Liang explained: "These are calamus, which is also a kind of medicinal material. I plan to dry them and sell them, grandpa and grandma."

"So that's the case, but Liang'er, you can get so much as a child." Old Man Gu was surprised that a child like Gu Liang could get so much in one day.

Gu Liang was about to explain, but before he could finish his words, Li spoke first: "Dad and Mom, this is what Gu Liang asked all the children in the village to help. Liang'er is really capable. He can get so many people to help him!"

After that, Li looked at Gu Liang with a squint and continued: "But I don't know where this nephew got the maltose to exchange for the calamus. Dad and Mom, you don't know that such a big pot of maltose can't be bought without dozens or hundreds of coins. You know, such a large amount of money is not something a child can take out."

Good guy, it turns out that the second aunt is waiting for me here! Gu Liang thought silently in his heart, no wonder she came to help me dry the clothes, she came to take advantage of the topic.
