Chapter 308 309. The Widow Comes
Gu Dashi's face changed slightly, "You've been talking nonsense all day, are you talking about this now?
I just want to know if you were involved in this matter?"
Li Cuicui felt that it would be a waste of time to talk to such a person. Anyway, now that there is such a clan rule, she still has the energy to tease him, "Now that it has been announced and everyone has acknowledged it, why don't you give it a try? See if this clan rule has any real effect?"
Gu Dashi knew what the consequences would be without even thinking about it. He pointed at Li Cuicui and said, "Poisonous woman."
Seeing Gu Dashi running out angrily, Li Cuicui didn't want to stay at home, so she walked over to call Li Chuncao and her sister, and walked towards Gu Wenheng's house at the entrance of the village.
Now that the two sisters have her surname, she simply changed Nini's name to Li Chunya, so that when she calls Chuncao, she will know that they are real sisters.
Jin Qianqian touched the two sisters' heads and put a gold bracelet on each of their hands.
"No need to give children such expensive things."
Li Cuicui stretched out her hand to stop him, but Jin Qianqian grabbed her hand and said with a smile, "Save this for the child as a dowry in the future. Besides, we are all cousins of the Gu family, so we should have some jewelry that we can show off.
It's just that I came in a hurry this time and didn't have any other preparations. I'll make up for it next time."
Jin Qianqian was just being polite when she said this. She didn't have a good impression of Gu Yuanfeng. Although she didn't dislike the whole family because of the same person, she still had to observe the personalities of the two children.
Whether it is the He family or Gu Yuanfeng, it is not a good phenomenon.

As soon as Gu Dashi arrived at the entrance of the village, he was stopped by a sweet voice calling him "Brother Dashi".
Gu Dashi hurriedly looked towards the village and found that there was no one there, so he walked over quickly and pulled the person behind the pile of earth.
"Why are you here?" Gu Dashi felt that his heartbeat was a little irregular. If the nosy people in the village knew about it, he didn't know what strange rules the unfilial son would set.
"You haven't visited us for a long time. I heard that there was a happy event in your family, so I came here specially to congratulate you." Shi Lingjiao took out a handkerchief and wanted to wipe the sweat off his face, but she didn't expect that Gu Dashi would avoid her this time.
"Brother Dashi?" Shi Lingjiao frowned, looking aggrieved, "You are disdaining me."
"No," Gu Dashi immediately put his arm around her shoulders, "You should go back first. There are so many people coming and going here. If someone sees you, it will have a bad impact."
Shi Lingjiao, "Then when will you come to see us?
Don't be an old man now, and look down on widows like us."
"How could that be?" Gu Dashi grabbed her hand and patted it. "I know I have wronged you these days, but they refused to let you in no matter what. I can't do anything about them now. For your sake, I even fought with that evil woman last time."
Gu Dashi felt a little guilty when he said this, he was the only one who was beaten unilaterally, but he couldn't say that, otherwise it would be too embarrassing.
Gu Lingjiao didn't know about this, but she could see that he was feeling guilty and thought that Gu Dashi was going to abandon her.
He secretly hated her in his heart, but smiled gently on his face, "This Sister Li is too much, how could she fight with you?
If she gets hurt accidentally, won't she feel bad? "
"Humph, how could she possibly feel bad? She's been selfish all her life, only caring about herself.
I told her not to fight with her when she entered the door, but she still made a fuss and even alarmed the old guys in the clan.
There is nothing I can do about it. Although my sons are all capable now, those elders have entrusted me with the task through my mother, and I have no way to refute them.
I also know that I have let you down, why don’t you go back first, and I will talk them through it after some time.”
Gu Dashi was now even angrier. Whenever he thought of Li Cuicui, he felt uncomfortable.
Seeing the fire rising, Shi Lingjiao pressed her handkerchief against the corners of her eyes, her voice choking with sobs.
"Everyone is saying that you are going to follow your son to the capital to enjoy a good life. By then, you will be the old master of the government, with a lot of slaves and maids at home. How can you think of me, a poor little widow?
If I don't come to see you now, I guess we may never have a future together."
Seeing her like this, Gu Dashi's heart softened a lot. He felt that he had been too bad before. People came to see him specially, but he kept pushing them away.
"Who is talking nonsense? When we separated, we agreed that we would live our own lives.
Look at how well their lives are now. They didn’t even ask us two old people to come over. They just gave us some silver and hired some servants to take care of us.
Not to mention Old Seven, he hasn't mentioned anything since he came back."
Gu Dashi also yearned to go to the capital, but he had a plan in mind, thinking that he would die of old age in Gaoling Village.
"They are too unfilial," Shi Lingjiao looked at Gu Dashi with surprise and delight, "But it's best if you don't go. This way, if I want to see you, I can see you."
Gu Dashi straightened his back and said, "Don't think about me all the time. I still have some money. You can use it to buy some delicious food. Don't treat yourself badly."
As he said this, he took out the silver coin from his waist. This was his last private possession, but he felt it was worth it to give it to his beloved.
Looking at the two taels of silver, Shi Lingjiao's eyes flashed with sarcasm, but she pushed the silver back, "Brother Dashi, do you think I came here just for this silver?
You look down on me too much. Now that I know you are fine, I will go back first."
Gu Dashi grabbed her and stuffed the silver directly into her arms. He also took the opportunity to take advantage of her before reluctantly letting her hand go. "Wait for me at home. I'll come to see you soon."
Shi Lingjiao looked shy but reluctant to leave. She looked back every three steps as she left, leaving Gu Dashi feeling empty inside.
But they thought they were doing it secretly, but Gu Wenheng and the others knew about their secret meeting here at the same time.
The brothers sat together and looked at each other. They didn't expect that their father would be the first one to commit a crime.
Gu Wenheng looked at his brothers with a smile, "What should we do now? It seems that we are inseparable."
Gu Yuanjin clenched his fist and covered his mouth, coughing dryly, "This is a bit difficult. He is our father, and he doesn't control his father like a son."
Gu Yuanhuo laughed and said, "It's not right for a son to not care about his father, but he has made up his mind to come in and take care of us."
Gu Yuantu, "If it doesn't work, let's go talk to Dad and ask him to stop making trouble for our sake."
The other brothers, "..."
Gu Wenheng, "Our father is still too idle. Shouldn't the clan organize some people to go back to the hometown and move the ancestral hall here during this period?"
Gu Yuanshui immediately responded, "Our grandparents are still in their hometown, so it's only right for our father, as their son, to go there."
