Chapter 13: The Eldest Sister-in-Law is Reborn (XII)
The two brothers Gu Feng and Gu Rao went to the mountains to hunt and collect firewood and were busy all day.
When I got home in the evening, I found that my home was gone and the land had been sold.
Their whole family is moving to the southern suburbs of the county.
Gu Feng & Gu Rao: ...What's going on? Especially Gu Feng, he is the eldest son in the family and the future pillar of the family.
Even if his parents didn't discuss such an important decision with him, they should at least tell him.
"Dog, what are you doing standing there like an idiot? Why don't you pack your things quickly? Humph, you are so stupid, even worse than your wife!"
Zhao now likes Li Xiuniang more and more.
As a mother-in-law, Zhao naturally wanted to find fault with her daughter-in-law Li Xiuniang.
In the past three years, she has indeed acted like an "evil mother-in-law".
However, Li Xiuniang was very capable and loved Guaibao very much.
Today, Li Xiuniang satisfied Zhao in every way.
First, he found a noble master for Guaibao, and then the noble master took a fancy to him and built a shop that laid golden eggs for his family.
As a sister-in-law, Li Xiuniang also offered to support her brother-in-law's education...
All these things made Zhao very happy.
Zhao is not a very kind person, but he is not a bad person either.
She is a very protective person. As long as she considers them to be her family, she will take care of them wholeheartedly.
After today, Zhao completely regarded Li Xiuniang as her own family member.
Seeing her silly eldest son at this moment, Zhao suddenly felt: This boy is not worthy of Xiuniang!
This won’t do!
Zhao is selfish at heart. She knows that her son is not worthy of her daughter-in-law, so she will not selflessly let her daughter-in-law go.
You have to know that Li Xiuniang was a child bride and she and Gu Feng had not yet consummated their marriage.
If Mrs. Zhao was kind and generous enough, and was sure that the couple were not a good match, she would change her mind and adopt Li Xiuniang as her adopted daughter, and then find a more suitable daughter-in-law for her son.
Zhao did treat Li Xiuniang as her own family member, but in her heart, her own son was more important.
Therefore, she will try every possible means to help her son make progress.
Tsk, such a good daughter-in-law must not be lost! ...
The Gu family moved to a village near Qingfeng Temple, and their life soon got back on track.
Li Xiuniang's food shop opened. She has good cooking skills and is a clean person, so her business is very good.
Zhao and Gu Dahai both ran to help their daughter-in-law.
Zhao was in the kitchen, while Gu Dahai used his hunting skills to get a lot of fresh ingredients for the food store.
In just half a month, he earned two taels of silver.
Two taels! This was their income for the past year.
Having made money, the whole Gu family felt confident.
Li Xiuniang kept her promise and sent her brother-in-law Gu Rao to a private school.
During the day, Gu Qingcheng read books, played the musical instrument, and learned medicine with Master Qingmiao at Qingfeng Temple, and went home to sleep at night.
The little girl's life is very fulfilling.
Although she didn't become as smart as Li Xiuniang had hoped, she didn't become more stupid either.
At least Master Qingmiao did not dislike his disciple for being too stupid.
On the contrary, Master Qingmiao seemed to have discovered a "new world" and was very interested in Gu Qingcheng.
After teaching "Three Character Classic" for more than ten days, Gu Qingcheng could only memorize three sentences and forgot two, and could never memorize it.
Master Qingmiao was not annoyed and continued to teach patiently.
Sometimes, both Zhao and Li Xiuniang felt embarrassed.
But Master Qingmiao smiled gently, "No hurry, take your time! Qingcheng is still young!"
She is a compassionate person.
And because of her past experiences, her state of mind has now reached an extraordinary level.
She is not happy with things, nor sad with herself. Even her own birth, aging, sickness and death would hardly move her.
Gu Qingcheng is just slow in reaction, but the little guy is really good-looking.
Especially those eyes, clean and clear.
In addition to her appearance, Master Qingmiao also discovered that Gu Qingcheng's temperament and manners were particularly good.
She was well-groomed whether standing, sitting or lying down, and seemed even more noble and dignified than the most standard-bearing ladies from aristocratic families in the capital.
System: ...You must be kidding. This executor is a daughter of the Gu family of Wujun.
A true aristocratic family could even become the empress or empress dowager.
Her appearance and manners have long been engraved deep into her soul.
Gu Qingcheng just traded her IQ for her looks, it’s not like even her soul was formatted.
Many "habits" come out naturally.
This kind of nobleness that seems to be "born with" coupled with a beautiful face, even if she is a little silly, is still very attractive! "Huh? Did the executor even foresee this? So, she is so unscrupulous in trading her IQ for her looks?"
The system was secretly guessing deep in its kernel.
Gu Qingcheng's temperament and appearance offset her shortcoming of "slow reaction".
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Therefore, instead of feeling disgusted by the other party's "stupidity", Qing Miao Zhenren was aroused by his desire to win.
What kind of ability is it to teach a naturally intelligent genius to become a talent? Isn't that what should be done?
If I treat a little fool like that, bah, my good disciple is not a fool.
She is just slow to react and doesn't understand.
The one who can personally polish a dull stone into a piece of exquisite jade, is truly a "master"!
Qing Miao becomes more and more courageous after each setback, and teaches Gu Qingcheng more attentively.
Poetry, songs, calligraphy, painting, chess, and music... Qingmiao tried them one by one, trying to find the area that Gu Qingcheng was truly good at.
Perhaps Qingmiao was indeed a "famous teacher", or perhaps Gu Qingcheng was really inspired by him and finally "woke up", Qingmiao discovered that his little apprentice's calligraphy was exceptionally good.
His calligraphy is clear, beautiful, dignified and elegant.
Although he was a young child with limited wrist strength, he was able to write with great vigor and power.
With time, you will be able to develop your own style.
Gu Qingcheng has one biggest advantage: her brain reacts slowly and cannot accommodate more things.
In this way, you won't be distracted or easily disturbed by the outside world. Instead, you can calm down and practice well.
"With just this handwriting, I can make a living in the future!"
Master Qingmiao knew what the Gu family was worried about, so he said this to Gu Dahai and Zhao in an optimistic manner.
In fact, True Man Qing Miao wanted to say that with her as a master, Gu Qingcheng would not be bullied.
However, Master Qingmiao cannot boast about such things.
Gu Dahai and Zhao were illiterate and did not understand calligraphy.
But they knew that True Man Qingmiao was a noble man with real abilities.
What she said was, of course, true.
The most important thing is that within less than a month of being sent to Qingfeng Temple, my daughter had undergone a complete transformation.
Mr. and Mrs. Gu Dahai saw with their own eyes that their daughter played the piano and wrote very seriously. They couldn't describe her posture and temperament.
But I just feel that my daughter is no longer a little country girl from a poor farming family, but looks like a noble daughter of a wealthy family.
"Don't worry about your baby's future!"
Gu Dahai secretly wiped away his tears and said this to Zhao with relief.
Zhao nodded vigorously.
Among their three children, the one they love the most and the one they worry about the most is Guaibao.
Now that Guaibao has found a good master, he may become a great calligrapher in the future. She doesn’t have to worry about that for the rest of her life.
The second son also went to a private school. The teacher said that he was very smart and should be able to make a good career through studying.
Only the eldest son Gu Feng was left——
"Gou'er's father, Gou'er is already sixteen or seventeen years old, but he still hasn't found a proper business."
"Today when I went to Qingfeng to watch Guaibao, I happened to see the young master from the capital and his guards practicing boxing."
"How about we go and ask the young master to let the dog learn some martial arts?"
Zhao didn't want her eldest son to be a farmer or a hunter. Her daughter-in-law was so capable, and if her eldest son didn't work harder, he would really not be worthy of her.
She was very worried, but she finally came up with a solution...
