Gu Nian watched the figure disappear into the darkness, then turned and went back into the house, only to see Huo Junhao looking at her with a half-smile.
Gu Nian: "...Little mouse, you've been playing with Xin Xin and Si Si for so long, have you learned to eavesdrop too?"
Huo Junhao sighed: "Sister Niannian, you didn't disappoint me! You are indeed clear-headed, but you have a problem with your eyesight."
Gu Nian: "?"
Huo Junhao shrugged, not explaining what he meant: "I'm getting some clean clothes for my third aunt's husband at the old house. Don't go in, my brother is changing his clothes!"
After saying that, he left.
Gu Nian was stunned. What did the prodigy mean?
One minute I'm clear-headed, the next I have eye problems?
Hey kid, you probably don't know that you like to go against Lu Zheng in the book, do you? When I say Lu Zheng doesn't like me, it means I'm thinking straight.
Does my eye look wrong with me if I'm attracted to Li Muyan?
Gu Nian didn't think much of it, shook her head helplessly, and went to the kitchen.
She needs to boil water for a bath; she's just too tired today.
...
When Uncle Gu got married, the one who suffered the most was Uncle San. He woke up and vomited for a whole day, even bringing up bile.
His mother and younger brother went back to the prefectural city early the next morning without waiting for him.
Grandma Gu scolded Uncle Gu all day. Well, not exactly scolded, but whenever Uncle Gu appeared in Grandma Gu's sight, she would tell him to get lost.
When other people get married, the brothers usually help each other fend off the drinking. But Old Gu, being the eldest brother, ended up getting drunk himself, along with his brother-in-law who was supposed to be fending off the drinking.
Uncle Gu was disliked by Grandma Gu, and Gu Shouxin wasn't much better off, because the wedding wine was made with high-proof grain liquor that Gu Shouxin had someone brew.
Gu Shouxin used his own method, combined with Gu Nian's method, to create his own high-proof brewing method. Yesterday, a large number of people got drunk!
In the end, only Gu Shouxin and Lu Zheng remained sober and walked home. The others were all helped, carried, or hauled home by their families.
So, after the new bride recognized him, Gu Shouxin made an excuse to go home to read. For the first time, he was glad that the original owner of the body had separated from the family because he was unreliable. Otherwise, where would he have hidden himself?
His stepmother is quite fierce and imposing. She doesn't hit people, and her words aren't harsh, but they can be quite embarrassing.
Let the eldest brother bear it all alone!
Besides the eldest and second sons, the groom, the fourth son, was also scolded yesterday. The reason for the scolding was simple: "You know your second brother is a drunkard, yet you still made the appointment."
Did your family not give you money to buy alcohol or something? You're planning to get all the men in the village drunk on your wedding night so no one will cause trouble in the bridal chamber, right?
What a nuisance! If it weren't for your father's sake, I would have separated you all long ago!
Even after the third aunt's husband moved from the second wife's house to the old house, he still couldn't escape being scolded.
He tells you to drink, so you drink? What? He's your brother-in-law, you can't refuse? What if you don't drink? You're just telling me what's wrong with not drinking?
What can he do to you? What does he dare to do to you?
You shielded your brother-in-law from drinking, and then got yourself drunk by your brother-in-law's older brother. You're really something!
You're always drinking like this, don't you know that studying requires a brain? This alcohol has ruined your brain, what's the point of studying then?
You're already being bullied by your wife at home every day. If you're also a little slow-witted, how are you going to survive? Why do you keep running to your in-laws' house to complain about your wife to your father-in-law?
If your wife finds out you were drugged by your brother-in-law, she'll have him do it again next time. Let's see if you'll still have time to complain then.
