"Dad's words make sense. Don't accept charity. But my second brother, as a son, doesn't care about his parents' food and clothing, and only cares about pleasure. This is unfilial. Even if we tell others, they are still wrong." Gu An paused and said, "It's a pity that I am younger and can't step in and remind them."
When Liu Miaohua saw that Old Man Gu's expression changed after hearing what Gu An said, she couldn't help but feel ecstatic and felt that there was a chance!
So she decided to add more fuel to the fire, which would be even better!
"Third brother, you don't know since you're not home. We don't even have the chance to eat meat twice a month, but they eat delicious meat and fish every day. When our father was sick, he couldn't even have a good meal. How can there be such a son in this world? It's really unfilial."
Gu An's expression changed. He had no idea this was going to happen.
"This is really too much! Second brother is not worthy of being a son!"
"If your second brother isn't worthy of being a son, then how can you, a teenager who still relies on your family for support and hasn't contributed a bit of effort, be worthy of being a son? Don't you think about who paid for you to go to school in the county? And who paid for and built the new house you live in now? Was it you?"
Xie Yunjiao's voice rang out at the door, making Gu An's face turn pale and blue, and he couldn't utter a word.
"Xie, who told you to come here and talk nonsense?" Fan was heartbroken to see her most beloved son being treated like this. "Is the third son the same as you guys? He's a good student and will become a master in the future."
"There are so many scholars studying in the academy, but only one top scholar emerges every three years, and many fail.
We still don't know which one he is, and if we define him so early, if he fails in the future, the one who said this will be embarrassed."
Old Man Gu was so angry that he slammed the table and stood up: "Xie, New Year's Big Head, your mouth has eaten shit, right? Your mouth is full of shit, get out of here right now."
Xie Yunjiao raised the corner of her mouth. Wasn't this what she was waiting for?
"I originally had good intentions and wanted to bring the roast chicken that I had worked so hard to roast over here to honor my parents, but you guys thought I had a foul mouth and told me to get lost. So I won't embarrass myself in front of you anymore."
What?
Everyone in Old Man Gu's family changed their expressions. Xie Yunjiao was so kind as to bring them food?
"Wait a minute." Old Man Gu hurriedly called out to Xie Yunjiao.
"Dad, I just ate feces this morning, my mouth stinks, and the food I cook won't be very delicious." Xie Yunjiao paused and said, "Also, don't make us sound so heartless and ungrateful. Although we have separated, we still give a lot of money to support our parents every month.
As for who in this family didn't give, you all know it. If you say that we, Gu Huai, are unfilial, please first consider what you have done."
Xie Yunjiao left with the empty basket.
In fact, there was nothing in her basket at all. She just deliberately brought an empty basket to make a feint and make Old Man Gu and the others feel uncomfortable.
Tell them to say that Gu Huai is unfilial!
Aunt Tian was wandering nearby and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she saw Xie Yunjiao return safely.
"I'm so afraid they will make things difficult for you," said Aunt Tian.
“They’re not that capable yet.”
But she had to thank Aunt Tian. If Aunt Tian hadn't happened to pass by, heard them talking about her, and came over to "tip her off", she wouldn't have had the opportunity to do this.
"Aunt Tian, bring Niu Niu and the others to our house to eat roast chicken." Xie Yunjiao invited.
"Next time. Today is New Year's Day, so it's not convenient to visit." Aunt Tian said.
Xie Yunjiao was stunned. If Aunt Tian hadn't mentioned it, she really wouldn't have known about this.
"We live so close, like family, is it okay?"
"This is the rule passed down by our ancestors, and we still have to follow it. I have cooked dinner at home, so I will go back first."
Unable to persuade Aunt Tian, Xie Yunjiao had to return home alone.
The two children had been waiting in front of the earthen kiln for a long time, their mouths watering as they watched the smoking roasted chicken.
After finally seeing Xie Yunjiao come back, Doudou hurried over and called out, "Mom, you're back. Dad said he'd wait until you come back before eating."
"Have you washed your hands? You can start eating after washing your hands." Xie Yunjiao said.
"I've washed it." Doudou quickly stretched out his hand to show Xie Yunjiao.
Lian Jin also stretched out his hand, but felt that this was too childish, so he retracted his hand halfway.
"Then eat it quickly, it won't taste good if it gets cold."
Gu Huai asked Xie Yunjiao about the old Gu family. Xie Yunjiao patted her chest and said, "Don't worry about your wife doing things."
Gu Huai's mouth curled up at Xie Yunjiao's amusement.
"By the way, my lady, tomorrow is the second day of the Lunar New Year, and we should visit my parents-in-law. But you haven't mentioned anything about them to me in such a long time."
Xie Yunjiao was stunned. Oh, right, how could she have forgotten about this?
But she is not the real Xie Yunjiao, and she does not have much feelings for the people of the Xie family.
In addition, in the original owner's memory, she did not seem to have much affection for Xie's father and mother. She grew up with her grandmother.
Later, when her grandmother passed away, she was taken to live with her parents.
Her parents were not very close to her, but they loved her cousin very much.
The original owner was very jealous about this and often did stupid things to get his parents' attention, but it often backfired and made his parents even more unhappy.
"My parents' home is quite far from here. I see Doudou is still young and it's freezing cold, so I don't plan to take him back to save him the hassle of traveling," said Xie Yunjiao.
Gu Huai nodded. He felt that what Xie Yunjiao said was correct.
"How about this, when Doudou is older and the weather is nicer, we can go together. I'll make a good-bye to my parents-in-law and ask for their forgiveness."
Xie Yunjiao forced a smile: "Okay."
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, early in the morning, Zhou Jinhai and his family brought gifts to Xie Yunjiao's house to wish her a happy new year.
Zhou Jinhai's child finally returned to normal, no longer had a fever, and looked much more energetic.
"We actually wanted to come over on the first day of the Lunar New Year, but we thought it would be awkward to visit someone else's house on that day, so we didn't. After he drank the medicine you gave him, his fever went away that night, and when he woke up the next day, he felt refreshed and even said he was hungry."
Xiaoyu looked at Zhou Jinhai, and Zhou Jinhai immediately understood what Xiaoyu meant. The two of them knelt down in front of Xie Yunjiao, holding the child.
Xie Yunjiao didn't expect them to do this and was unable to stop them.
"Oh, there's no need to be so formal."
"Of course he is. He is the lifeblood of our family. You two saved my life, and my son's life, respectively. You are our family's saviors, and we must pay you our respects."
Xie Yunjiao looked at Gu Huai helplessly, only to see Gu Huai nod at her.
