In an instant, the air in the entire Gu family courtyard became quiet.
Lu Yan stared coldly at the hand of Old Lady Gu that was pulling at her clothes. Her gaze was like a sharp blade that could break Old Lady Gu's wrist at any time.
"I...Isn't this for your own good?"
Old Mrs. Gu withdrew her hand angrily, not daring to look at Lu Yan again.
She didn't understand how a farm girl could have such a look in her eyes.
"Then I won't bother you." Lu Yan smiled faintly, but deliberately raised her voice: "No one in this family is stupid. Mother should not be used as a tool by some people, right?"
This is said to the second wife.
Earlier at the foot of the mountain, when Gu Linbei instructed them to divide the meat, Old Mrs. Gu didn't say a word.
It means she had no objection at that time.
But after just a short while, Old Mrs. Gu started to make a fuss.
Lu Yan definitely wouldn't believe that there was no one instigating this.
Since Mrs. Gu had been back for a while, she naturally had no time to interact with others, so the only possibility was Song Jiao'e.
The heroine in the original book is very cunning.
How could Lu Yan not understand?
The yard fell silent for a moment. As soon as Lu Yan and Gu Linbei left, Old Lady Gu couldn't help but curse at the two people outside the door.
On the other side, Yu Nian also slowly came out from behind the kitchen and walked towards the sixth room.
"Where have you been?"
As soon as I entered the room, Gu Linxuan's low voice rang out.
Yu Nian walked in and looked at the person lying on the hospital bed.
"I'm right here in the yard," Yu Nian said, patting his chest. "Fifth sister-in-law and fifth brother actually dared not even listen to mother. It's scary to watch them quarrel."
Yu Nian was naturally not afraid of Lu Yan, and she said this just to put on a show in front of Gu Linxuan.
Gu Linxuan was silent for a moment, and there was a bit of complexity in his eyes when he looked at Yu Nian.
After a moment of silence, he whispered, "Everyone in this family has their own thoughts. I can't protect you."
After saying that, Gu Linxuan sighed.
Now that he thinks about it, he would rather marry someone as strong-willed as Lu Yan. At least that way, he won't have to watch his wife being bullied.
Now, Lu Yan came to exchange marriages.
He directly handed the poor little Yu Nian over to Gu Linxuan. It was a pity that Gu Linxuan's legs were in such a bad condition now, how could he protect Yu Nian?
Therefore, there was guilt in his words.
At this moment, Yu Nian felt that Gu Linxuan was in an uneasy mood, and immediately frowned and looked at Gu Linxuan.
"How can I blame you for this? You have no choice, right?" Before the end of the world, Yu Nian was the heir of a medical family.
She had faced all kinds of people who had lost confidence due to illness, so when she heard Gu Linbei's words, she immediately knew what he was thinking.
"You don't need to burden yourself psychologically. I told you, I have a way to cure you."
Yu Nian looked at Gu Linxuan with a serious expression.
Gu Linxuan was stunned by her serious look. Before he could speak, Yu Nian looked at him seriously again: "Don't tell me, you don't believe me?"
Gu Linxuan really wanted to ask: Are you worthy of my trust?
However, seeing Yu Nian's serious expression, the words on the tip of his tongue suddenly stopped coming out.
"without……"
Gu Linxuan thought, even if it was a lie, it would be good if it could comfort Yu Nian for a while.
Therefore, he did not express his thoughts.
Yu Nian looked at him like this and sighed slightly: "Don't worry about anything else. Wait until I find the materials needed to treat your leg, and then I will consider other things."
Yu Nian's voice was very calm, but there was a hint of tenderness in her eyes when she looked at Gu Linxuan.
Gu Linxuan was stunned for a moment.
Everyone in the village said that Yu Nian was ugly. His mother had no other choice but to find a human trafficker and buy Yu Nian as her wife.
But when Gu Linxuan met her gentle gaze, he felt that she was the cutest person in the area.
Yes, it's cute.
Because, from the moment Yu Nian married him, not only had he not complained a single time, but he had also been trying his best to comfort her.
These are indeed very important for a patient.
When Yu Nian saw Gu Linxuan looking thoughtful, she knew that he might not completely believe what she said.
But it doesn't matter.
Once we have the silver needles, we can put Gu Linxuan’s treatment on the agenda.
Yu Nian thought about it and couldn't help but look at Gu Linxuan twice more.
Maybe by then, she could use this favor to make Gu Linxuan and her reconcile.
Thinking of this, Yu Nian felt extremely happy.
After all, now that they have traveled to a famine, without zombies and mutant beasts, her and Lu Yan's life will be much better.
…
As soon as Lu Yan and Gu Linbei left the Gu family's house, Lu Yan asked Gu Linbei, "How much does pork cost per pound in the city?"
Gu Linbei thought about it and gave a rough estimate: "Thirty-five cents."
"OK."
Lu Yan nodded, then found a big tree at the entrance of the village and pulled Gu Linbei under the tree.
At this time, every household has eaten.
A group of old ladies sat under a big tree at the entrance of the village to enjoy the cool air, and of course the topic they were talking about could not escape Lu Yan and Yu Nian.
"Don't say that. I think the fifth son of the Gu family treats his wife well. Didn't they say they were an exchange marriage? Such a shameless woman, and the fifth son still protects her?"
"Don't mention it. At first, everyone thought Lao Wu didn't care. Look, there were only a few people following him up the mountain. Who would have thought that Lao Wu directly gave three pounds of meat to every family who helped him up the mountain?"
A few old ladies were chatting about gossip with great enthusiasm, but when they saw Gu Linbei and Lu Yan coming over, they suddenly became quiet.
"Hey, Lao Wu is here?"
Perhaps it was because Gu Linbei and Lu Yan came over but didn't say anything, which made everyone feel a little awkward.
So, you looked at me, I looked at you, and finally we had to say hello to Gu Linbei.
As for Lu Yan, who was beside Gu Linbei, they only knew that she was the new daughter-in-law in the village.
How do you know if it’s Lu Yan or Yu Nian?
So I didn't say hello to Lu Yan.
"Hey, we're chatting."
As soon as Lu Yan walked up, she said this.
The old ladies were completely confused and looked at Lu Yan suspiciously.
But Lu Yan came here to infiltrate the enemy, so didn't he just speak with a smile?
"Aunts, you are absolutely right! My husband really cares about me, otherwise he wouldn't have given me half of the wild boar he killed."
Several old ladies were even more confused by Lu Yan's words.
Everyone was almost embarrassed.
"So you're from Lao Wu's family." One of the old ladies laughed awkwardly and looked at Lu Yan with a flattering look in her eyes: "You and Lao Wu are both so handsome, you really are a perfect match!"
