Chapter 90 91. Really Stupid, Pretending to be Stupid
Gu Sanbu thought of the previous long-lived founding emperor and also had expectations for the newly succeeded emperor.
"The Darong Dynasty has only been pacified for a few decades, and many old ministers from the previous dynasty have been re-employed. Even if they follow the routine, they should issue new decrees soon." Wu Sanbu changed the subject, "I estimate that the imperial examinations will be resumed soon. If you want to go further, the whole family will support you then."
Gu Wenheng did not hide it, "I do have this intention, but I appreciate the kindness of the tribesmen. To be honest, my wife still has some foundation, which is enough to provide for us. Everyone's life is difficult, so let's not embarrass everyone."
Gu Shulin, "..." Is it really okay to talk about being a gigolo so confidently?
"But after all, that is your wife's dowry. Aren't you afraid of being suppressed in the future?" Gu Sanbu was a little surprised at Jin Qianqian's background, but still wanted to persuade Gu Wenheng to accept the clan's kindness.
Gu Wenheng touched his head and smiled foolishly, "My wife is not like that. Besides, even if she was suppressed, it was a closed-door matter."
Gu Sanbu: "..." Is this kid really stupid or just pretending to be stupid.
Gu Wenheng: "..." I'm not stupid. It's better to live off someone than to live in chains all my life.

"This kid is really cunning. He seems to say everything, but he actually said nothing." Although Gu Sanbu complained, he was indeed satisfied in his eyes.
"So what do we do now?"
Gu Sanbu, "You go and tell all the villages to keep a low profile during this time. Even if you find something good, don't show off. We don't have to worry about thieves stealing it, but we have to worry about thieves thinking about it. Find a way to fence off the area where we live. We don't know when this will end, so we have to prepare for the worst."
Although I said optimistic words before, I had to prepare for the worst in action. If the problem could not be solved before winter, then life would be really difficult.
"But how do we fence off the place? We don't have any materials." Even if we had the materials, we should have built a house first. Now everyone has only built a thatched hut to shelter from the dew, and that thing can't really withstand anything.
"Well, let's go say hello to a few villages first and ask them to help us think of some ideas."
Gu Shulin, "What about Gu Yuanyu?"
"Let's do this for now," Gu Sanbu made several moves in a row, but the other party didn't take them, so he stopped thinking for a while, "Just keep making friends."

"Mom," Gu Yuanfeng rubbed his hands, "I've been looking for you for a long time, and finally found you."
"What do you want from us?" Li Cuicui looked at her daughter's thinner body, and a look of distress flashed in her eyes.
"Mom, look at what you said. Isn't this our family that has moved here? I came to say hello to you. How are you and Dad doing these days?"
"We won't starve to death. No matter what, your brothers will not ignore us." Thinking of the fish soup that the seventh brother's wife brought to her at noon, Li Cuicui's expression calmed down a little.
"That's good, mother. I see you look much better. Can we find something to eat here?"
Li Cuicui glanced at her and said, "With such a large forest, as long as you work hard, you won't get hungry.
We asked you to go into the mountains with us, but you refused. The area around here has been dug up by people who arrived earlier. If you want to find something to eat, you have to walk further.
Is this what your mother-in-law asked you to come back to ask?"
Gu Yuanfeng shook his head. He thought that he could also get this information from the members of the He family who had come here earlier.
"I heard that my seventh brother's family has some fishing hooks and ropes, but he has lent them out. I wonder if he can lend them to us first."
Li Cuicui, "We can't even get enough people in our own village to lend you the stuff. You just cleaned up the old cow, so you must have enough meat now. Don't fight with everyone else for these little things."
Speaking of this, Li Cuicui acted full of resentment. As a mother, she didn't even see a single hair of the cow, which showed how bad this marriage was.
Gu Yuanfeng, "How is this the same? After all, Lao Qi and I are siblings. Family members are no closer than outsiders."
Li Cuicui laughed a few times, "Okay, after what happened last time, you still haven't become smart, don't try to get help from your parents-in-law in everything.
If you split up the family and become the head of your own household, then even if I have to be thick-skinned, I will have to help you speak up. Now don't say anything, go back to where you came from, and don't stand here and get in my way."
"Dad, look at what mom said. How can I live in my husband's family in the future?" Gu Yuanfeng turned his head and looked at Gu Dashi who was still lying on the quilt.
Gu Dashi turned his head and looked at her, "Your mother is right, not to mention your uncles, even your brothers have to take turns to borrow money.
Although you are our daughter, you are married after all. You can't let us make the villagers uncomfortable just for you, right?"
Ancient Yuan style, "."

"Brother Guo, you made quite a big noise this time. Many people are looking for you now. Is it really okay for you to hide here with me?" Ouyang Bing sat directly in front of Guo Yurong and drank the tea on the table.
Guo Yurong turned the teacup in her hand, her face full of disdain, "So what? I didn't hurt anyone, and I didn't open the city gate. Many people saw it. It was those greedy officials who opened the gate themselves."
"You, you are still so intolerant. But didn't you say you were going to find a place to live in seclusion for a while? How did you know this news? Didn't you go into the mountains this time?"
"Yes, but I have my own magical powers. Why are you so free today? Why don't you go out and do some work?" Guo Yurong refilled the other person's cup with tea.
"Thanks to you," Ouyang Bing rolled his eyes. "Now every household in the city has closed its doors. Even if I open the door to do business, I still have to bear the risk of being robbed by refugees. It's better for me to stay here and watch you, the culprit, and get my losses back."
Guo Yurong, "I think the food in that restaurant is not good, otherwise, even if it was just for a bite, it wouldn't be so deserted.
Even I don't like your bland food, how can it attract others?"
Thinking of the soup pot that he couldn't stop eating a few days ago, Guo Yirong couldn't help but smacking his lips. It was really memorable, but it was a pity that he didn't know if he would have the chance to eat it again.
"No way? You're like a beggar complaining about the bad food. I remember you always stayed in my restaurant and refused to leave. Now you're so arrogant. If you have the ability, show me your skills and make me convinced." Ouyang Bing didn't think there was anything wrong with the restaurant he had worked so hard to run.
Guo Yurong became interested and described her previous eye-opening experience vividly, but she unexpectedly attracted the other party's suspicious look.
