The Resplendent Farming Apothecary - Chapter 41

[Chapter 41: Money Shameless]

It was rare for him to withdraw money, but Liu Shi didn’t turn his back on him, but came up to pull his arm with a smile on his face. Gu Qiao threw away Liu Shi’s hand and said with a serious expression: “What are you doing? Really miss a man? It’s daytime, the child is still here, don’t do anything!”

Liu Shi rolled his eyes at him , said: “What are you talking about! I’m going to tell you a great thing.”

Then, she told the man the news she heard from Aunt Wu without a word. Gu Qiao’s heart was tangled in a ball, more than 160 taels of silver, and it was impossible for him not to be moved. You know, when he was the second shopkeeper in the shop, he only got one tael of silver a month. More than 160 lights, enough for him to work for more than ten years!

However, after all, people have been adopted, and they are their granddaughters. He is also a person who wants face. Let him lick his face and ask Gu Ye for money, but he can’t open his mouth!

Liu Shi naturally saw his concerns, and hurriedly said: “Master, you have to think about it. That’s one hundred and sixty taels of silver. Is face more important, or money?”

Seeing that the man still didn’t let go, she added A fire broke out: “It’s not for us, you have to think about Xiaozhuang! Don’t you think that we, Xiaozhuang, will be hungry and fed for a lifetime in this poor mountain corner? Think about it, that one hundred With two extra silver, I can buy a house in the town and a few more acres of land, and then we will be urbanites, and it will be easier to get a wife.”

Hearing what she said, Gu Qiao couldn’t take it anymore. Living. yes! His biggest wish in his life is to leave this backcountry and become an authentic urbanite. At the beginning, he was one step short of fulfilling his ideal. But it was ruined by that bitch of the Miao family! Now, let that dead girl pay for it! !

When Gu Qiao and Liu Shi appeared in front of Gu Xiao’s house, Gu Ming was chopping wood in the yard. Liu was busy pushing his own man.

Gu Qiao stepped forward with a distressed expression on her face: “You are only a little old, and   you are asked to do such heavy work? Give me the axe, and Dad will help you chop…” If Qiao made this gesture, Gu Ming would still be moved a little bit. However, after he sold his sister, and because he didn’t want to be a stepson, he pushed his son out to be adopted by others, Gu Ming gave up hope for this father at all.

He turned slightly to one side, avoiding Gu Qiao’s hand that came to pick up the axe. He was silent for a moment before he said, “No, I’m used to doing this kind of work for a long time! I won’t bother Seventh Uncle!”

Gu Qiao’s expression darkened, and the smile on his face could hardly be maintained. He laughed dryly and said, “You kid, what ‘Seventh Uncle’, I’m your father…”

Before he could finish his words, Gu Xiao came out of the room: “What? Xiao Qizi, you want to go back on your words. , to bring the child back? Unfortunately, it’s too late! Ming’er has nothing to do with you in terms of genealogy or household registration. The adoption of a major event can’t be a joke. Where did you put the patriarch, and what do you think of the clan?”

” Fifth uncle, who has regretted it? You said this. My nephew didn’t mention a word!” Gu Qiao heard that all the “clan” were invited, how could he dare to say a word more?

“Then what are you doing here? I don’t welcome a villain like you who goes back on your word!” Gu Xiao looked at him with disdain. I looked at such an honest boy at the beginning, how come he is crooked when he grows up? Is it because adults didn’t teach it well, or is it just like that?

The smile on Gu Qiao’s face was completely unbearable. When Gu Xiao was recruited to join the army in a hurry, he did not complete the final link due to his adoption, and he did not want to admit that it was indeed what he did wrong. When people said it was ugly, he could only listen.

Gu Qiao twitched the corners of his mouth and said, “I…I don’t think I miss the children? Come and see them.”

“Missing children? If you, Gu Xiaoqi, had this heart, she wouldn’t condone your mother-in-law who almost starved the child to death. What? What kind of relationship are you talking about. Gu Qiao, Gu Qiao, are you worthy of being a father in front of the two children?” Gu Xiao did not give him any face. From Liu’s greedy eyes, he vaguely guessed what the couple was talking about, and he felt even more contempt in his heart.

“Fifth uncle, look at what you said. If they don’t deserve it, Gu Ming and Gu Ye also have my man’s blood on their bodies. Is it easy for my man to pull the two children, a piece of shit and a piece of urine so big?” Liu Shi saw My man got stuck, and hurriedly took over the conversation.

“Grandpa, I’m back!!” Gu Ye was sent by grandpa to deliver pork to the patriarch, village chief, third grandma and ninth uncle. Ding Dashao gave a lot of pork, about 50 to 60 kilograms. In the late autumn season, the temperature is not too cold except at night, and the pork can’t hold it. Gu Xiao thought about sharing the meat with good friends in the village to maintain his relationship.

Gu Ye ran several times, and finally delivered the last one. Unexpectedly, as soon as she entered the door, she saw two unsightly guys. She restrained the smile on her lips and frowned slightly.

When Liu shi heard her voice, she turned around suddenly, looking at her as hot as silver. After laughing, Mrs. Liu softened her voice and put on a loving expression: “Ye’er, where are you busy? Fifth Uncle, you really are so busy that you keep your two children’s feet on the ground. But you are enjoying the happiness in the house. Are you an adopted grandson, or are you looking for someone to serve you?”

“Auntie, please put away the smirk on your face, I look terrified.” Gu Ye bypassed She walked to Grandpa’s side and stood still, and then said again, “You remind me of a saying, ‘The weasel greets the chicken for the New Year—no peace of mind!'” If

it was someone else, she would be too embarrassed to raise her head. It’s a pity that Liu’s thick skin cannot be underestimated: “Why do you talk about this child? Alas, there is no woman in this family. How can a good girl be taught? If you speak so harshly, if it is passed on Going out, I’m afraid that no matter how much dowry you put on it, you won’t be able to get married.”

“Don’t worry about it. There are people like you who are willing to marry, and they have been married twice, so what should I worry about?” Gu Ye looked at her up and down, and made a “tsk tsk” in his mouth. Gu Ming endured a hard time laughing aside, and hurriedly lowered his head to continue chopping wood.

Liu Shi secretly bit his back molars, and the corners of his mouth twitched a few times. She stopped laughing, squeezed her eyes hard, took out a handkerchief that was so dirty that it was almost impossible to see the primary color, wiped the corners of her eyes, and played the pity card:

“I know, you are blaming me for not giving you food in the first place. I’m full. Isn’t this so poor? You go to the village and ask, how many families can eat enough? Our family eats closely to your father and your younger brother. Your father is the main labor force in the family, and no one is hungry. You can’t starve him. Your younger brother is young, and you are a big sister, how dare you fight with him…”

“What about you? You can’t even get enough to eat. Are you and Da Zhuang’s fat blown out of thin air?” “Gu Ye looked at her fat body with disgust, and pouted, “You’re in the kitchen in the middle of the night to open a small stove for yourself and your son, you really don’t know how! I’m so hungry that I can’t sleep every night, you do it at night What is it, I know it clearly in my heart!” When the

words came to this point, Liu Shi no longer played the family card, with a tiger face, triangular eyes, and a sharp voice: “You damn girl, after so many years “It’s not your father who raised you and your family, how can you grow up so big? If I knew that you were a vicious white-eyed wolf, I should have strangled you and thrown you away instead of keeping you!”

Gu Ming heard this. , not happy. Who is poisonous? No matter how poisonous it is, it can’t be more poisonous than you poisonous woman. He threw the axe and said loudly, “Why didn’t you throw it away? If I hadn’t begged the patriarch and the village uncle to go up the mountain overnight to find my sister, she might have already…”

Liu Shi’s eyes flashed viciously, Staring at Gu Ye stubbornly, like a poisonous snake waiting for an opportunity: “The wild wolf on the mountain, why didn’t you eat your bitch…”

“Okay!!” Gu Xiao shouted violently, like a thunderbolt from the sky, There was a roar in the eardrums. He looked at Liu Shi and Gu Qiao coldly, snorted and said, “Tell me, why are you coming to my house! Stop talking about those who have something!”

Liu Shi touched Gu Qiao with his arm. Gu Qiao mustered up the courage to raise her head, but when she met Gu Xiao’s sharp eyes, it was as if a balloon that had been punctured deflated again.

Seeing that the man couldn’t figure it out, Mrs Liu took a step forward, facing Gu Xiao’s pressure, and said loudly: “Gu Ming and Gu Ye, after all, they were brought up by our boss. These two can work for an adult now. Come on, you can’t be so cheap!”

Gu Xiao glanced at Gu Qiao with an even more disdainful expression on his face. He looked at the clown jumping beam, watching Liu’s jumping. Hearing this, he casually asked: “Oh? Then what do you want me to do? Let me hear it.”

“Give me the money!! Two hundred taels of silver, not a penny!!” Having been blinded by money, the lion opened his mouth.

“Naughty!!” The voice of the old patriarch appeared outside the door. The people in the courtyard turned around and looked around. In addition to the old patriarch, there were also several patriarchs of the Gu family, the village chief, and others.

Beside them, Li Hao was winking at the Gu Ming brothers and sisters. It turned out that when Li Hao came to play with Gu Ming, he saw Gu Qiao and Liu’s “aggressive” going to his good brother’s house. It’s definitely not a good thing for these two to appear. Could it be that Gu Ye’s delivery of meat to his family was known to Liu’s, and he came looking for trouble?

Li Hao hurried home and called his grandfather to support Xiao Ye Zi. Unexpectedly, the old patriarch was playing chess with the village chief at his house. Hearing the news, he took the initiative to follow. The old patriarch knew Liu’s behavior very well. He must have heard that Gu Xiao and his grandson made a small fortune in the town, and they were suffering from pink eye disease. They wanted to come and take advantage of it.
