Chapter 339 Get Out!
Gu Zhifeng tightened her grip around the walnut and almost crushed the walnut that she had been grinding for several years.
He lowered his head and said nothing, hiding the guilt and helplessness in his eyes.
If possible, he really didn't want to let his daughter always bear the responsibilities of the family. He knew that she wanted to go to the pawn shop to get money to build a house. There were more people in the family and not enough living space. They couldn't stay together after getting married.
After a while, Gu Zhifeng said in a hoarse voice: "Go and ask your uncle to return the money so that we can build a house."
He actually felt guilty for saying this, after all, the money he lent out belonged to his daughter. If this matter were to get out, he didn't know how much ridicule it would cause. So many men in the family, big and small, all relied on a girl to suck their blood.
Gu Yuehuai knew what Gu Zhifeng was thinking, and said with a smile: "Then I'll have to trouble Dad to go and do this."
In fact, she knew in her heart that Gu Tianfeng would definitely not be able to pay back the money in a short period of time, and asking for it at this time would be a wasted trip.
Gu Tinghuai and Gu Xihuai looked at each other, and both frowned, feeling quite uncomfortable.
As older brothers, they should take on the responsibility of building the house. How could they let their younger sister do the hard work?
Gu Xihuai looked unhappy: "Where are you going? Yuehuai, building a house is not something you should worry about. Just stay at home, study when you should, go to work when you should, don't worry about these things."
Gu Tinghuai also nodded heavily and said solemnly: "Yes, my daughter can stay at home with peace of mind. Big brother will take care of everything. After the new year, big brother will go to the army and send his allowance back every month. Sooner or later, we will save enough money to build a house."
Gu Yuehuai didn't respond and said, "Okay, go to sleep and don't take up my space."
She took the basin and prepared to wash up. Suddenly she thought of something and said to Bai Mei, "Oh, Xiaomei, you and I will go to the Masses Daily together tomorrow. You have to go in person to publish the certificate in the newspaper. The sooner you get it done, the more at ease you will be."
Bai Mei nodded: "Okay, I'll go with you tomorrow morning."
Gu Yuehuai came back from washing up and everyone had dispersed. Those who needed to go back to their rooms to sleep went back to sleep, and those who needed to squat under the eaves to brush their teeth went to brush their teeth. She lay on the kang with her clothes on, covered herself with some quilts, and closed her eyes to rest facing the wall.
She really didn't expect things to turn out like this, but she really shouldn't have let Huang Sheng go in the first place.
After going through all this, I don’t know if Huang Sheng will continue to pester me. If something happens again in the future, things will not be as harmonious as they are today. Therefore, Huang Sheng cannot live. He is like a time bomb that may explode at any time.

The next day, Gu Yuehuai was awakened by the sound of the door opening.
She sat up and saw Bai Mei tiptoeing out of the room.
Bai Mei was startled when she saw the vague outline in the darkness, and then she reacted: "Did I wake you up?"
"Why did you get up so early?" Gu Yuehuai got off the kang and folded the quilt.
Bai Mei scratched her hair a little embarrassedly and whispered, "I'm a little uncomfortable with it. I didn't sleep well all night."
She was a bit attached to her bed, and when she worked the night shift in the hospital, she would just sit in the chair and take a nap. To be honest, today was the first time she had spent the night outside since she was a child, and coupled with what happened last night, her mood was a little up and down, and she couldn't sleep.
She got up early because she was going to work with Gu Yuehuai today.
Gu Yuehuai didn't ask any more questions and said, "What do you want for breakfast?"
Bai Mei said, "You are already very tired every day. I am not working recently. I will cook the meals recently. I can also make them for you at noon and ask your eldest brother to deliver them to you. Is that okay?"
She sounded a little nervous, and it made sense. She suddenly moved to a new place. Even though she was about to marry Gu Tinghuai, she still felt like a dependent. She would feel uncomfortable if she didn't do something.
Gu Yuehuai understood this deeply. After all, she had lived in the Qin family for a period of time in her previous life.
She said, "Okay, then I won't be polite with you. As you can see, our food is in the room. You can get it whenever you want to cook. Do you want to call my brother later? Aren't you going to the commune to get a marriage certificate today?"
At this time, the marriage certificate is actually something like a certificate, but it also has legal effect.
Bai Mei blushed and stammered, "He, he must be very tired. How about tomorrow? Tomorrow will be fine."
Gu Yuehuai raised his eyebrows and was about to speak when the door to the inner room opened. Gu Tinghuai walked out while putting on his clothes. When he saw Bai Mei, he said in high spirits, "I'll go with you, Xiaomei. Let's get the marriage certificate today, okay?"
Bai Mei's eyes also sparkled. She looked at his gentle features and nodded.
Gu Yuehuai smiled, took out a dozen eggs from the house, and said, "Today is a good day. Let's boil eggs to add some nutrition to everyone. Future sister-in-law, breakfast will be left to you."
Her address made Bai Mei blush again.
When Bai Mei is at home, she often takes care of the family's three meals a day. Except when she is busy with work, she is like a nanny at other times at home. Over the years, she has naturally become a good cook.
For breakfast, she cooked rice porridge, boiled eggs, and fried shredded potatoes and cabbage, which was a balanced combination of nutrition.
Just as Gu Yuehuai scooped breakfast into his bowl, there was a knock on the door.
She frowned, thinking about what happened last night, and felt that nothing good would happen so early in the morning.
"Who is it?" Gu Tinghuai stood up to open the door, shouting as he walked towards the door.
The door creaked open, and the two people who came into view made Gu Tinghuai's face darken instantly: "What are you doing here?!"
His angry tone made Gu Yuehuai pause slightly. He put down his bowl and chopsticks and walked over. He saw Huang Sheng's face covered with bruises and purples. This face was not caused by her beating last night. It seemed that the "young master" also had a nemesis and was taught a lesson.
Naturally, someone came to teach him a lesson.
Gu Yuehuai glanced at Song Jinan, who was standing tall and slender beside Huang Sheng with a guilty look on her face.
His light brown eyes were filled with guilt, and he said in a hoarse voice, "Editor Gu, I'm sorry. I wanted to bring Huang Sheng here to apologize last night, but it was too late. I came here today to say sorry to Comrade Bai."
"Huang Sheng has been lax over the years. It is my fault for not supervising him properly, which led to him making mistakes. I am sorry."
When Song Jinan said this, Huang Sheng's face looked very embarrassed. He moved his lips and wanted to argue, but when he thought that the person next to him was Song Jinan, the scolding words were stuck in his throat. His cheek twitched slightly and felt very painful.
This kind of pain inexplicably reminded him of the pain of being beaten by Gu Yuehuai yesterday, but the strange thing was that there were not many scars on his back. Although his clothes were stained with blood, he was not actually injured.
Gu Tinghuai clenched his fists. Whenever he thought of how desperate Bai Mei was yesterday, he wished he could kill Huang Sheng in front of him.
Gu Yuehuai didn't know if she sensed the murderous intent that was boiling up in Gu Tinghuai. She frowned, fearing that he would do something stupid at this moment. She opened her red lips slightly and said to Song Jinan and Huang Sheng in a cold tone: "Get lost!"
