Chapter 814 817. Vent
In the next two days, Gu Wenheng no longer went out to meet guests, but simply closed the door and refused visitors, and took Jin Qianqian to the river to fish.
Just as they had thought before, the two of them sat down by the river, and the children who were playing in the river left quietly.
Even if there were villagers passing by, no one would come forward to disturb them.
"I've told you not to look so gloomy when you're outside all day. Look, you're scaring people away." Jin Qianqian threw down her fishing rod and sat aside. There were various fruits on the table beside her. What a decadent life this was.
Gu Wenheng, "It's really not my fault. I smiled at them when I came over, but who knew they would run even faster.
I have a little more fat on my body, but it shouldn't be that scary.
Hey, now besides you, I don’t even have anyone to talk to.”
This time when he came back, not only did he distance himself from the villagers, but he could no longer be as casual with the Gu brothers as before.
Jin Qianqian patted his hands comfortingly, grabbed a piece of cut apple from the table and put it in his mouth.
Gu Wenheng chewed for a few times, then stared at her hand, "...Did you put the bait just now?"
"...," Jin Qianqian looked down at her hands, "...she's dead..."
Gu Wenheng couldn't hold it in any longer, and his mouth full of apple crumbs spat out, "Wife, you can't be so deceiving..."
Jin Qianqian, "...I said I didn't mean it, do you believe me?"
Gu Wenheng gave her a look, "What do you think?"
This daughter-in-law was definitely taking revenge on him for that bad boy at home. He knew it in his heart, but he couldn't say it out loud.
Jin Qianqian took the handkerchief from Butler Xu and wiped her hands, "Fortunately, we are not using earthworms as bait today..."
Gu Wenheng covered his stomach and felt himself churning. “…” Can you please stop talking?
Jin Qianqian suddenly pointed at his fishing rod and shouted, "Look, the fish is hooked."
Gu Wenheng instantly forgot everything that happened before, his eyes fixed on the fishing rod, "Don't come to help me this time, everyone, step back a little."
As soon as the fish in front was hooked, the guards behind him immediately took action. Even if he snatched the fishing rod back in the middle, these people still lent him a hand from time to time, which made him feel very unfulfilled.
Jin Qianqian also waved her hand to let everyone leave, and stood aside to accompany them. "Looking at the movement, the fish should not be big..."
Before she could finish her words, a huge fish head emerged from the water and Jin Qianqian quickly shut up.
It seems that after all these years, their luck is still as good as ever.
Xu Dawang and the others also looked alert, and several guards were slowly approaching Gu Wenheng.
Gu Wenheng was excited, as this was probably the king of fish today, and he wanted to do it himself.
"All of you move aside. Let me show you my skills today." Gu Wenheng stared at the river. Fortunately, these men had some sense and did not block his view.
Xu Dawang said anxiously, "Master, this fish is a bit big, why don't you let them come?"
Gu Wenheng, "...Don't bother me, hurry up and find a big basin to hold the big fish, today's dinner is settled.
Wife, how should I cook this fish?
Gu Wenheng was so excited that he didn't even care about his image and even called her his wife.
Seeing that he was so childish, Jin Qianqian let him be, but asked the guards to watch carefully. "You better take it easy, don't let the fish escape, otherwise our family will be in trouble."
Gu Wenheng, "Don't worry! This fish is destined to be our meal."
After great efforts and with the help of the guards, a big fish weighing more than ten kilograms was finally brought ashore.
"It's really satisfying," Gu Wenheng said with joy after a sweaty game, looking at the spoils in front of him, "Is my promise correct? We have a meal for today."
Jin Qianqian was holding her fishing rod at the moment, "Do you still have the energy to try again?"
Gu Wenheng raised his still trembling hands and said through gritted teeth, "It must be."
Jin Qianqian immediately placed the fishing rod in his hand and said, "It's up to you. Maybe you can even invite big brother and the others to dine together."
Gu Wenheng, "..." If I say no at this time, won't it be embarrassing?
Xu Dawang was a little worried, "Madam, the master..."
Jin Qianqian looked at the river and said quietly, "He is also a human being and needs to vent. Sometimes being too tense is not a good thing."
Xu Dawang, "..."
That night, the Gu family gathered together again to have a meal based on the day's catch. Even Gu Dashi, who had been hiding in the house, was carried to the main hall.
After having a good meal and a good drink, Liu Liu pulled Jin Qianqian aside to talk in private.
"Gu Yuanfeng came back again today, but this time, my mother didn't even give her a chance to speak. She quickly sent her back."
Jin Qianqian, "Didn't the brothers go and warn his husband last time? He has only restrained himself for a few days, why are you coming this time?"
Liu Liu looked mysterious, "I can tell you, if you ask others about this, they definitely won't know, but the two villages are close to each other, so I specially asked someone to inquire about it.
In addition to wanting to ask you for a share of Chunya's dowry, he also wants you to help find a marriage for his son.
You helped those guys find good in-laws before, which made her jealous. She said a lot of sour words to us several times, saying that you can't tell the difference between inside and outside. It's okay for your own nephew, but why do you take on so many responsibilities for your clan members?"
Jin Qianqian, "Those kids are worth helping..."
"We all know this. They are children who grew up in front of us, so they must know more." Liu Liu patted her hands and continued gossiping, "Besides, everyone knows this. If you really count it, the kid from the Shi family is an outsider.
Every time we hear someone saying these gossips, we don’t even need to say anything, no matter if it’s from the village or the clan, they will insult the person to the core.
I really don't know what's going on in her head? Raising her own child well is better than anything else. Look at how she spoils her child. She often mentions outside that he is the nephew of the seventh brother.
After hearing about this incident, they sent people to follow the boy and keep a close eye on him whenever he left the village, which is why he has not gotten into trouble over the years."
Jin Qianqian took it seriously, "Do mom and the others know about this?"
Liu Liu, "My husband mentioned it to her, and my mother called him home and scolded him, but Gu Yuanfeng had a lot of reasons and asked everyone, isn't what her son said right?
But telling others that Lao Qi is her son’s uncle, isn’t this the truth?
She even said that our family does not regard her son as our own nephew. It’s fine if you are unwilling to support him, but even other uncles have joined in suppressing him.
Alas, everyone was so angry that they almost kicked her out with a broom, but later it was my father who came out to mediate. "
