Chapter 648 650. Shi Family
Gu Yuanjin frowned and said, "Did we make a mistake? Those two girls usually don't make much noise."
Xie Ruyi pulled his sleeve and winked at him.
Li Cuicui looked at the couple and said, "I think you sisters-in-law have already known about some things."
Xie Ruyi's face froze. She had already discovered it, but she just didn't want to be the bad guy.
As for the others, they knew just as much as she did, and they all kept silent, so she naturally wouldn't be the first to speak out.
Seeing the expressions of these sisters-in-law, the Gu brothers knew that what Li Cuicui said was true.
"In that case, then let's do as mother says." Gu Yuanshui glared at his wife, then turned to look at Li Cuicui and said, "When the time comes, let Sixth Sister find a husband, and I, as her uncle, will add another dowry."
The other brothers also agreed and asked Li Cuicui to rest more before saying goodbye and leaving.
"What's going on?" Gu Yuanshui's face darkened as he left the yard.
Liu Liu, "It's just like that. I have a big heart and want to live a better life."
"Speak more clearly."
Liu Liu, “Ever since we arranged a marriage for Lehua, I have seen Chuncao staring at our Lehua a few times.
I didn't pay attention to it at first, but later on, a few times, when I saw our son-in-law coming, Chuncao always found an excuse to come over.
Especially that aggrieved look on her face. If you didn't know, you would think we had done something to her.
One time, I just said a few words to her, telling her that girls should smile more to have good luck, and she started crying.
There were a few older women around at the time, and if they hadn’t testified for me, others wouldn’t have known how I bullied her niece.”
"Let's get to the point." Gu Yuanshui didn't want to listen to these trivial matters.
He also understood his own mother, and if it was just such a small shortcoming, she would not be so ruthless.
Liu Liu pouted and said, "A few days ago, she came to my mother for help. I don't know how she persuaded her, but my mother actually went to help her lobby and wanted the seventh daughter-in-law to bring the man with her.
You see, our Lehua is Lao Qi's biological niece, and we don't dare to have such thoughts, but she is so good that she makes things difficult for us as soon as she opens her mouth. "
"Is that all?" Gu Yuanshui felt that it was nothing. Anyone with a brain would know that they would have a good future with the help of Gu Wenheng.
“In fact, I heard a rumor that this girl acted weak in front of our family members, but she always looked down on those who came from other villages to study.
Even if someone greets her, she is said to ignore them." Liu Liu tried to speak more tactfully. In fact, many people were secretly saying that Li Chuncao was always bullying the weak and had high expectations.
It was just because of the Gu family's face that these people didn't expose the truth.
"Since you know all this, why don't you tell me?"
Liu Liu felt a little guilty, "It's not my mother who is raising them. If this gets out and makes my mother angry, I can't bear the responsibility."
This is half true and half false. Everyone is selfish. Who would care about their own child?
Gu Yuanshui angrily said, "How foolish! If our family's reputation is affected, do you think you can stay out of it?
To outsiders, the two children are in our family and are raised by our mother personally, so they can no longer get rid of the relationship.
If they do something wrong again, or something bad happens, our Lehua will be affected."
Liu Liu, "...I thought we just ignored them. After all, in our village, how could she cause any trouble?"
In her opinion, she was just a little girl who didn't leave the village on weekdays, so she didn't take this matter to heart.
"..." Gu Yuanshui took a deep breath, "Fortunately, we found out early. It seems that we need to send the people away early so that the two families will not be implicated in the future."
As he said that, he looked at Liu Liu and said, "You should find someone to help keep an eye on her later. It would be best if you find someone from a more powerful family. If this kind of person is not suppressed, she may not be at peace even if she is married off."
On the other side, Gu Dashi sent someone over to invite Li Cuicui over.
Li Cuicui leaned on the kang and said to the maid who came to pass on the message, "I am not in the mood to listen to him nagging today. If he wants to make a scene, let him make a scene."
Thinking of this, she felt even more upset. Gu Dashi seemed to have taken the wrong medicine these days. He always wanted to keep her there every day and listen to him talk for most of the day.
I guess he heard the noise outside today and just wanted to come and laugh at himself.

Stone Village
Shi Dayong's face froze for a moment when he saw Gu Yuanfeng bringing two girls in, but no one noticed, and his face turned into a kind smile, "Yuanfeng, our girls are here."
Gu Yuanfeng felt a little guilty, "Husband, my mother hasn't been feeling well lately, so she wants me to take care of the two sisters for a while.
Can you arrange for them to stay in the guest room?"
Shi Dayong, "What nonsense are you talking about? My two daughters are also my children. I have been looking forward to having them live with me.
Don't stay in the guest room. There happens to be a side room. Clean it up and let the two girls live there. That's perfect."
Shi Dayong naturally would not lose face to Gu Yuanfeng over such a trivial matter.
Besides, my seventh uncle is now a third-rank official, and there are more possibilities for him in the future. With such a wife and family, he is not stupid, so how could he offend them?
To be honest, these two girls are closer to the Gu family. They are not like the eldest daughter and eldest son in their own family, who are only nominal relatives.
Li Chuncao held her sister's hand and looked at the new brick house.
So the layout here is similar to the courtyard in her seventh uncle's village, but she just doesn't like it and always feels that the difference is a bit too big.
There was a flash of doubt in Shi Dayong's eyes. He had seen this stepdaughter several times before, and each time she lowered her head.
I didn't expect that she looked a little different today, but I could still see the disgust in her eyes.
He smiled calmly and said, "If you are too busy, I will ask Niuniu to help you."
Gu Yuanfeng was eager to push all the things in his hands out, and said, "I'm tired, so let Niuniu clean up the room.
Don't go out for a moment, I have something to tell you."
Shi Dayong turned to the backyard and called Shi Niuniu over to clean up the room, then followed Gu Yuanfeng into the room, "Is there something wrong? What did mother say?"
His mother-in-law called people over, and now Gu Yuanfeng wanted to talk to him again, so Shi Dayong naturally didn't dare to delay.
Gu Yuanfeng hesitated for a moment, and then he picked and chose about the two children coming back this time, and said, "Now that you've handed this matter over to me, I can't really ignore it.
Anyway, it's just a matter of staying at home for a while, and then she'll get married."
Shi Dayong was stunned by the news. "Did my mother-in-law really leave this matter to you?"
