Chapter 266 267. Divorce Letter
Gu Wenheng was very stubborn. These material possessions were not as important as Jin Qianqian and the baby in her belly. "As long as you name a price, I will buy it. I can give you two carriages of this carriage."
If Guo Yurong's whereabouts had not been unknown in the past two years, Gu Wenheng would not have been willing to waste time arguing with Ouyang Bing here.
"You mentioned it to me before, but unfortunately I don't have it now," Ouyang Bing looked embarrassed. This thing was originally left to him by his elders for self-defense. He regretted taking it out out of weakness before, but he didn't expect this kid to use the same trick again.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "How about this? I will not leave Daocheng during this period. If your wife can give birth smoothly this time, then we can put the matter behind us.
I don't want your two carriages for nothing, you can name the price."
Gu Wenheng, "Are you worried that I can't afford the price?"
Ouyang Bing smiled bitterly, "If it was something else, we could talk about it, but this is really not possible. I only got two pills in total, and one was used by your wife two years ago. If it is absolutely necessary, this medicine will not be used."
Gu Wenheng looked at him steadily for a long time before nodding and agreeing, "That's the only way. I promised to give you two carriages. I'll have Butler Fu deliver them to you when the time comes."
Seeing Chu Dongnan's expectant face, Gu Wenheng simply said generously, "I'll ask the butler to send one to you when the time comes."
Chu Dongnan laughed so hard that his eyes almost narrowed into a line. He stood up, patted Ouyang Bing's shoulder, and grinned at him.
It seems like I will have to go out with this guy more often in the future. I don’t have to do anything, but I can get the benefits.
Ouyang Bing looked at him in confusion, "..." The old man's smile made him feel a little uneasy.

On the second day, after Gu Dashi had dressed up, he couldn't wait to ask, "What birthday gifts did your good sons give you yesterday?"
Li Cuicui had asked Mrs. Song to move her things to the warehouse and put them away. "They are all jewelry and clothes. You can't use them."
Gu Dashi, "Even if you can't use it, it's okay to take a look at it. When did you become so fussy?"
Li Cuicui sneered, "Okay, don't talk nonsense to me here, let's go to the eldest brother's house together. It's rare that the whole family is here, so we should talk about some things properly."
Gu Dashi's eyes were a little evasive, "How can the whole family be here? Didn't the second and youngest sons not come back?"
"Bah, where did the youngest one come from in our family? As for the second and third brothers, the eldest brother and third brother have already sent someone out to inquire about them. They will come back one day." After saying this, Li Cuicui tidied herself up, stared at Gu Dashi and went to the yard next door.
But at least he took Gu Dashi's face into consideration, so he didn't let his daughters-in-law come over today. "Since everyone is here today, you should also have a good talk with your sons. They have been running out mysteriously during this period. What are they busy with?"
"Well, I'm not busy at all. I just drink with those people all day and have fun together." Gu Dashi looked up at the sky and down at the earth but didn't dare to look at Li Cuicui.
"I don't think anyone has the time to drink with you and kill time." Li Cuicui crossed her arms and looked at him. "I didn't invite the elders here today because I was giving you face. But now, you still refuse to tell the truth."
"What do you want me to say?" Gu Dashi suddenly shouted, "I am an old man now, after all, how can I be so bossy?
And the rest of you? Seeing your mother like this, you don't even bother to persuade her. Didn't the Li family teach her the Three Obediences and Four Virtues?"
Li Cuicui raised her head and smiled, "I have been frustrated for most of my life, helping you, Gu Dashi, to expand your family. Is there anything in this house and outside that I haven't taken care of?
Don't stare at me so wide-eyed. Is there something wrong with what I said?
Apart from doing farm work quietly, you have made the greatest contribution to this family.
And what about me? I have to take care of everything in the field and at home. Isn't that enough to follow the Three Obediences and Four Virtues?"
"Don't be so sarcastic here," Gu Dashi looked at his sons' eyes that knew everything, and guessed a little bit in his heart. He simply gave up, "I did interact with Widow He a few times, but so what? I didn't provoke her back."
Li Cuicui covered her mouth and ran to the corner to retch. Her previous guess was one thing, but now hearing him admit it, she felt nauseous all over.
Gu Yuantu and Gu Wenheng walked over and patted her back gently, comforting her silently.
"What? You still want to meddle in my affairs?" Seeing his sons glaring at him, Gu Dashi simply walked to the main seat and sat down, "I know you have made some money in the past few years, but you still have to follow some filial piety.
I wanted to find a young wife for Old Seven. What did you brothers say at that time? I don't need to interfere in your family's affairs. I say the same thing now. "
Gu Yuanjin, "Dad, the one you wanted to make the decision for Old Seven was the daughter of Widow He, right?"
Many things will leave traces even if they are covered up.
What's more, the two villages are not far apart, and if you really want to, you can get to know a person from head to toe.
"So what? Didn't the Seventh Elder refuse at that time? I really don't know what's so good about Jin? She's so sick that she has to bring a doctor with her when she goes out.
She's not even half as healthy as He Meili. If the Seventh Brother really married her, she might have several children by now."
Gu Wenheng's face darkened immediately. "I am also a father of two children now. I hope the old man will not say such things again in the future."
"Old man?" Gu Dashi pointed at himself, "You are my biological father. Don't you even want to call me dad now?"
Gu Wenheng, "It's not wrong for me to call you old man. According to the way it's called here, many people call their father that way."
Compared to calling him dad, Gu Wenheng felt that he was no longer worthy of this title, and calling him old man was an honor to him.
Gu Yuanshui, "Old man, Wen Heng is right. We should follow the local customs by addressing each other like this. After all, we have been here for several years. Although our accent remains unchanged, we have to slowly adapt to the local customs when we go out."
"Are you guys going to stand against me today?" Gu Dashi sneered, "I wasn't ready to welcome you in before, but seeing how you are now, I don't need to consider your feelings anymore.
Boss, you should take good care of the yard these days. I will pick an auspicious day and welcome Shi (Widow He) into the house as my second wife."
Li Cuicui also calmed down at this time, "Don't be a co-wife, I want a divorce."
Gu Dashi suddenly raised his head and looked at her, "Don't even think about divorce unless you accept the divorce letter."
Li Cuicui laughed, "I have all the three reasons why you can't go. Even if I file a complaint with the government, I will be in the right."
Gu Dashi opened her mouth, but saw that her sons were glaring at her, so she didn't dare to say anything in the end.
