Chapter 157: Wings Hardened

"Third brother, your mother is wrong about this, but she did prepare something for you. But your second sister-in-law is borrowing it first.

Don't worry, I'll ask your mother to get it back when I get back." Gu Chongshan said, holding back his anger.

Gu Yan was so angry that he almost laughed. He wanted to come back? His son couldn’t even use all the new ones, so how could he use the leftovers of others?

"No, my son doesn't use things that have been used by others." Gu Yan said with a cold face.

Gu Chongshan felt uncomfortable after being criticized, and he looked at the child lying on the kang, who was covered with a new blue floral quilt.

There was a pile of diapers and a small mattress next to him, and his face looked embarrassed.

However, Zhang Dahua doesn't think it's bad to use old ones: "What's wrong with used ones? Your child is so precious, why do you have to use new ones? Aren't you afraid of shortening his life?

Besides, is that someone else? That's your own nephew.

If you don't want to use something that has already been used by someone else, then you're just being hypocritical. Since you don't want to use it, then let Yaozu continue to use it."

When it comes to children, Li Wanqing doesn't spoil them: "My children are precious, so they must be new.

Some people, on the other hand, will shorten their lifespan if they keep thinking about other people's things all day long.

I don’t care what you’re here for, I don’t want to listen, and I won’t care.”

Gu Chongshan glared at Zhang Dahua, who was more of a hindrance than a help.

"It's the third brother's mother who can't speak. So, I'll ask your mother to make a new one for the child." Gu Chongshan said.

Li Wanqing felt a chill in her heart. They might have come here with a big purpose this time, but she would not agree to it.

"No need, my son doesn't need these things." After saying that, Li Wanqing lowered her head and continued eating, ignoring them.

"If you have nothing to do, go back. I want to eat." Gu Yan didn't want to talk to them anymore.

"Something's wrong. We have something to do." Gu Bei said with an apologetic smile.

As he spoke, he did not forget to tug at the corner of Zhang Dahua's clothes.

"Tomorrow when you go to dig herbs, take your second brother with you and ask him to help you dig.

When the time comes, I can give half of the money from selling the herbs to your second brother." Zhang Dahua said as a matter of course.

"Hahaha." Gu Yanzhen laughed out of anger: "How can you be so shameless? You want to learn how to dig medicinal herbs from me, and you want me to share the money with you?

If an apprentice in a pharmacy wants to learn skills from his master, he will not receive any wages for the first three years. Not only will he not receive any wages, but he will also have to serve his master by bringing him foot-washing water.

Why is it that when I come to Gu Bei's place, not only do I have to teach him how to dig medicinal herbs, but I also have to give him a share of the money?

He has such a big face, should I chop him off with a board and offer him as an offering?"

Gu Chongshan was almost pissed off to death by this old woman.

Just like Gu Yan said, being an apprentice in a shop outside really means working for the master for three years for free, and serving the master's family.

In more serious cases, they will be beaten, and scolding is commonplace.

He is nothing like them, who just touch their upper lip with their lower lip and still want the third brother to give him some money.

Seeing that Zhang Dahua wanted to say something, Gu Chongshan quickly stopped her: "Alright, stop talking. You and the second brother go back first. I have something to say to the third brother."

"But..." Zhang Dahua didn't want to leave.

"Go back! Second brother, go back with your mother." Gu Chongshan said with a dark face.

Even though Zhang Dahua is usually noisy, she is afraid when Gu Chongshan gets really angry.

Now, seeing that Gu Chongshan was really anxious, he didn't dare to say anything more and walked out muttering softly.

"Just go, I'm not wrong, the second brother is his biological brother, not someone else. How can he let his brother serve him?

Don’t you even consider whether you have the fate to do so…” Zhang Dahua muttered softly and walked out.

Gu Bei glanced at Gu Yan and followed him out.

Gu Chongshan watched them leave, then turned around and said to Gu Yan, "Don't worry about your mother, she's just like that.

Third brother, I came here this time to ask you to teach your eldest brother and the others how to dig medicinal herbs.

I know my request is a bit excessive. This is your ability to make a living. Logically, I shouldn't ask you this.

But, third brother, you are my son, and they are also my sons. I will be concerned if any of you are not doing well.

How about this? I don't ask you to teach them all, just teach them two or three herbs each.

Besides, the mountain is so big, you can’t pick all the fruits by yourself, right?

At worst, I won’t let them go to the places you often go to.”

After Gu Chongshan finished speaking, he looked at Gu Yan expectantly.

I have to say that Gu Chongshan is much more capable than Zhang Dahua.

But even though his words sounded nice, his meaning was still the same.

I want Gu Yan to teach Gu Bei and the others how to dig medicinal herbs.

"Impossible, since you said it, this is my livelihood skill, how could I possibly teach it to others?

I'm not stupid, how can I teach two or three different languages? Then wouldn't the three of them also teach more than ten different languages?

You guys are so calculating, you're really a good father to them." Although Gu Yan no longer had any expectations for them.

But I still can't help feeling sad.

“Third brother, you know I don’t mean that, it’s just that hunting is dangerous and you can lose your life if you’re not careful.

If there is a way, I hope you can all get out of the mountains." Gu Chongshan said.

"Dad, I'm telling you the truth, digging for medicinal herbs is actually not as profitable as hunting.

Digging medicinal herbs is also dangerous, as precious medicinal herbs usually grow on cliffs.

We did make a little money digging medicinal herbs, but that's because the herbs we dug are relatively old.

However, now we have basically dug up all the old medicinal herbs in the mountains.

The rest are of young age and worthless.

Besides, the reason we get more money is because Wanqing knows how to prepare medicinal herbs.

In a pharmacy, well-prepared medicine can fetch a lot more money than unprepared medicine," Gu Yan said truthfully.

"Is that possible?" Gu Chongshan asked tentatively.

"No, this belongs to my wife, and it can be said to be part of my wife's dowry.

I can't let my wife teach other people unless she's willing." Gu Yan said firmly.

Gu Chongshan looked at Li Wanqing again, hoping that she would agree on her own initiative.

Li Wanqing noticed his gaze, but she didn't even raise her head.

After finishing the meal, he played with the children.

Seeing that Li Wanqing ignored him, Gu Chongshan could only turn around and say to Gu Yan, "Even if you don't know how to prepare it, it's okay to sell it directly to the clinic for less money. It's better than hunting after all.

"Dad, please go back. I've made it very clear. I can't agree to this." Gu Yan refused again.

Gu Chongshan didn't expect that even after he said that, Gu Yan still refused.

He was also annoyed: "What's the matter? Third brother, you have become too independent and don't take me, your father, seriously anymore?

I just asked you to help your brothers, but you refused to do it.

Do you want me to kneel down and beg you?"

Gu Chongshan's words were truly vicious.

If he made his own father kneel down to him, how could Gu Yan have any reputation left if the news got out?
