Chapter 200 There are maids and old women
"Well, I'm in for a treat today! Roe deer meat? I haven't had it in six months.
Gu Chuan did catch one last year, but I asked him to trade it in for money,” Zhao Cuifang said nostalgically.
"Hasn't he been busy with Gu Xiang's wedding these days? He hasn't had time to go out and sell it.
My sister-in-law is back, so let's eat at home." Zhang Cuihua was always showing off in front of Gu Xiang.
Gu Xiang was indeed very touched: "Sister-in-law, thank you and brother. I knew that you and brother are the best to me."
Zhao Cuifang looked at Gu Xiang and Zhang Cuihua being intimate and felt nothing at all.
After all, Gu Chuan had been busy running around for her wedding for several days, but in her heart, only her elder brother and sister-in-law were better?
However, she had no feelings for Gu Xiang. After all, she had been married for a short time and had little contact with Gu Xiang.
"Cuihua, come in and cook." Zhang Dahua saw Zhang Cuihua chatting outside in the kitchen, so she called her out.
"Hey, here I come." Zhang Cuihua agreed.
They were all daughters-in-law. Zhang Cuihua went in to cook, and Zhao Cuifang couldn't sit idle either, so she let her son go play with his cousin, and she also went into the kitchen to help.
In the cave, Guo Erlang was also talking to his father-in-law and two brothers-in-law.
"Dad, can you take me with you when you go hunting? I want to try it too." Guo Erlang said excitedly.
“What’s the point of hunting? It’s dangerous and tiring.
But if you want to go, I'll take you." Gu Chongshan said.
"I want to go. I also want to hunt more pheasants and rabbits. I have never hunted one in my life." Guo Erlang was very happy to see that Gu Chongshan agreed.
"By the way, you said you went to your third brother's house yesterday?" Gu Chongshan asked pretending to be indifferent.
"Yes, Gu Xiang was worried that I wouldn't be able to walk on the mountain roads and wouldn't be able to return home in one day. It's not customary to stay overnight at my parents' home when I return home.
But if we didn't go back, we were afraid people would gossip about us, so we went to Third Brother's house instead." Guo Erlang explained.
"Are you going to their home in the county town?" Gu Chongshan didn't care why they went to Gu Yan's home.
He just wanted to know how Gu Yan's family in the county were doing.
"Well, the house in the county town where Third Brother lives is so big that it can't even be called a house, it has to be called a mansion.
The third brother’s house is very large, with three large courtyards in the front and back, east and west courtyards, and a garden.
Besides, there are maids and servants at home to serve us. You haven't seen that the maids and servants at home all call Third Brother "Master" and Third Sister-in-law "Madam." Guo Erlang's tone was full of envy.
Guo Erlang didn't know that they were actually called "Young Master" and "Young Madam".
Later, when Xuanxuan was older, Li Wanqing asked Aunt Qiu and the others to call him "Master and Madam" and call Xuanxuan and his family "Young Master".
"Is it really that big? And there are maids and old women at home?" Gu Chongshan asked with some disbelief.
"What? The Third Brother has maids and servants at home?"
"When did Third Brother buy the mansion? Where did he get the money to pay for maids to serve him?"
Gu Nian and Gu Chuan exclaimed in unison.
"What? You don't know?" Guo Erlang was also surprised.
They were all family, and Gu Chongshan was Gu Yan's biological father, yet they didn't know about Gu Yan's family situation. This was too unreasonable.
Gu Chongshan and Gu Nian didn't know how to answer Guo Erlang's question.
Normally, they should know, after all, he is Gu Yan's biological father, and Gu Nian and Gu Chuan are Gu Yan's biological brothers.
But the reality is that they don’t know.
To be honest, Gu Chongshan was a little embarrassed. Where was his son's home? He didn't even know if his son's servants were being treated as slaves.
Guo Erlang also realized that this was because Gu Yan was not on good terms with his family?
He had also inquired about it at the beginning and knew that Gu Yan didn't have much contact with his family.
But after all, Gu Yan and his friends have no relatives outside except Gu Xiaogu, so even if they want to find out, they can't.
The reason why I know that Gu Yan has a bad relationship with his family is because Gu Bei sometimes brings up hidden meanings in his words, and Guo Dalang told him this.
Also, he went to the farm to ask around, and everyone said they didn't see any of Gu Yan's relatives coming over.
There are no relatives there, which is very telling.
Gu Yan has brothers and sisters. If no one goes there, it can only mean that the relationship between the brothers and sisters is not good.
However, although Guo Erlang knew that Gu Yan might not have a good relationship with his family, he did not expect it to be like this.
This cannot be said to be bad, it should be said that there is no contact at all.
Otherwise, how come they didn’t know anything about Gu Yan’s huge house, which was right there?
"Ahem, the county town is too far away and we won't go there easily, so we haven't been there." Gu Chongshan made an excuse.
“It’s a bit far, and it’s not very convenient to get there.
But if you have the chance, Dad, you can go live at my third brother's house.
They have plenty of rooms at home, so they don't have to worry about not having enough space." Guo Erlang said.
"We are doing well in the mountains. When I have nothing to do, I can hunt some pheasants and rabbits to eat." Gu Chongshan's face looked a little ugly.
Gu Chongshan doesn't want to go? Of course he wants to go.
Doesn't that mean Gu Yan doesn't want them to go? Not to mention the county town, even if they wanted to live in the manor, Gu Yan wouldn't agree.
Gu Chongshan no longer had the desire to chat with Guo Erlang, so he stood up and walked out.
"Erlang, where is Third Brother's house in the county town?
It just so happens that I'm going to the county town to sell mountain products these days, so I might as well stop by and take a look." Gu Chuan also felt a little uncomfortable, but he didn't show it.
"It's on Guangji Street, very easy to find. This street is as big as my third brother's house. You'll know when you get there." Guo Erlang glanced at Gu Chuan and said.
"Did the third brother's family really buy maids and servants? When did they become so rich?" Gu Nian felt uncomfortable.
He is the eldest in the family, but he is not doing as well as his younger brother. It is right for him to feel unhappy.
"I bought it. Not only maids and servants, but also servants." Guo Erlang answered affirmatively.
"Did you say anything to my third brother?" Gu Chuan asked.
"Nothing happened? We didn't stay there long. We went back after dinner." Guo Erlang said.
"The third brother invited you to dinner?" Gu Nian was even more surprised.
Gu Yan was so stingy that he actually invited Gu Xiang to dinner? Did that mean that the third brother was ready to ease relations with them?
Then can they go to his house next time they go to the county town?
After thinking about it, Gu Nian shook his head again. The third brother had a deep grudge with his family and would not forgive them easily.
This can be seen from the fact that he refused his parents to live in his house.
He treated his parents like this, let alone his brothers.
"When will you go to the county town again? I'll go with you. I haven't been to my third brother's house yet." Gu Chuan was still excitedly asking about Gu Yan.
