Gu Jianguo was so depressed that he cried out, "Why are you pinching me when you can't find the money? I think what the old woman said is right. You just can't sell the ducks to give away the geese. Maybe you have hidden the money yourself!"
"What did you say?"
This sentence completely infuriated Li Chunhua. She exploded and started beating Gu Jianguo.
"You unfilial son! I told you to stop talking nonsense! When did you start to speak for outsiders? I'll beat you to death!"
"Ah! Stop hitting me..."
Gu Jianguo cried out in pain, but Li Chunhua, who was angry, showed no intention of stopping.
"If you hit me again, I'll be furious! Don't think that I won't do anything to you just because you're my mother. Why don't you go out and find out if I, Gu Jianguo, am someone you can easily mess with!"
"You evil son, how dare you bully your mother?"
“…”
The mother and son were arguing and actually started fighting.
Seeing the mother and son fighting, Gu Youcai and Gu Jinxiu went to separate them. As the fight went on, the whole family started to fight...
“That’s enough!”
Seeing the farce getting out of control, the children and parents all started fighting, and the old village chief of Xiejia Village roared, "If you want to fight, go back to your village! You slandered the Yandaida family for stealing your things, and when they couldn't find the things, they stayed in our village and made trouble. Do you really think that there is no one in our Xiejia Village?"
As soon as the old village chief said this, the men in Xiejia Village immediately stood up.
The two villages are adjacent to each other, their land is adjacent to each other and they share a river. People from one village step on the stalks of the other village's land, and the canal of that village is dug an inch wider and an inch narrower. The two villages may even fight over a disagreement, not to mention this kind of thing of looking for trouble!
Seeing the conflict escalate, the old village chief of Gujia Village turned grim. He swung his cane at Gu Youcai and Li Chunhua twice, shouting, "Isn't this embarrassing enough? Do you have to make a big fuss? Get out of here!"
"If you dare to mess around again and get beaten up, don't blame me for not caring about you!"
After saying this, the old village chief turned and left.
Knowing that Gu Youcai's family was a cause for concern, he shouldn't have cared about this troublesome matter!
If this were to be talked about later, it would appear that he had brought the villagers to Xiejia Village to cause trouble, alas!
As soon as the old village chief left, Gu Youcai and his family did not dare to stay any longer in the face of the young and old men from Xiejia Village who were eyeing them covetously.
The money, the money was not recovered!
Things, things are gone!
"Everything in my house has been stolen. I can't live like this anymore!"
"My city wife, mother, you promised me that you would marry me a city wife!"
"Get lost! You can't even afford to eat, and you still want to marry a city girl..."
"And my dowry! We agreed to three turns and one ring..."
"You get out too!"
“…”
Seeing the family leaving crying and wailing, the people gathered at the door of the Xie family gradually dispersed.
However, after this incident, people who heard yesterday that the Xie family spent 500 yuan to buy a daughter-in-law and thought that the Xie family was very rich, even looked at the Xie family in a different way.
Hatred of the rich is too common!
But the rich man in their minds suddenly turned into a poor man with only 40-odd yuan in assets, and they felt... balanced!
This is not even as good as them, why are they still jealous?
"snort!"
In the crowd, Wang Bingcheng, who had come to see the Xie family's excitement, snorted coldly, "I thought the Xie family had a lot of wealth, but I didn't expect it to be such a poor and broke family!"
If he had known that the Xie family had no money, he would not have come to seduce Gu Nanzhi and elope with the money yesterday. Not only did he not get any benefit, but he also got himself into trouble!
Now the village cadres are still keeping a close watch on him!
It’s so upsetting just thinking about it!
Wang Bingcheng grumbled, holding his chest which was still a little painful from being kicked, and was about to leave. Before leaving, he saw Gu Nanzhi leaning against the door of Xie's house. Seeing her delicate little face that was the size of a palm, Wang Bingcheng pursed his lips...
As expected, she was the woman he fell in love with at first sight, she was so beautiful!
I don't need to think about getting money from her anymore, but I still have to get some other benefits if I can, after all...
Food, sex and nature are part of human nature!
Gu Nanzhi took in Wang Bingcheng's entire look.
This dog man!
I knew he was still harboring evil intentions!
She will go to town to buy a needle now, and she will make him impotent next time!
Mother Xie and Father Xie thanked the people in the village. When they heard that Gu Nanzhi was going to town, they immediately took ten yuan from home and said they wanted to go with her.
"Your father has already found someone to prepare the banquet, and the money has been paid. You will have the wedding banquet tomorrow. For such a big wedding, I can't not even buy you a new set of clothes. Mom will take you to town to buy some clothes!"
Facing Xie's mother who was full of enthusiasm and trying to urge her to change her words, Gu Nanzhi: "..."
"Okay, Mom!"
He was unable to even utter a word of refusal and was very willing to accept the advice.
"Ahh! Good!"
When Xie's mother heard the word "mother", she was so happy that her teeth were showing. She affectionately took Gu Nanzhi's arm and walked away.
Gu Nanzhi went to the town hospital and bought several kinds of good quality medicinal herbs. She also asked the old doctor who dispensed the medicine if he had any silver needles and tools for preparing the medicinal herbs for sale.
There was no way. There were only artificially grown medicinal herbs in her laboratory. Since she did not major in medicine, she did not even have these tools.
When the old doctor heard that she wanted to buy these things, he looked at her warily for a long time.
"What you want is not only not sold in town, but even the department stores in the city may not sell it! What are you doing here?"
"I learned some Chinese medicine from the old people who were sent down from the village. I want to go back and try to figure it out and make a living from it!"
Gu Nanzhi brought out the excuse he had prepared long ago.
The old doctor's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Which village are you from?"
"Originally it was from Gujia Village at the foot of the mountain."
"...I know someone who can teach you Chinese medicine. The hospital doesn't sell what you want, but I have a set!"
In the end, Gu Nanzhi spent eighty yuan to buy a set of silver needles and preparation tools from the old doctor. Together with the twenty yuan she spent on medicine, she spent a total of one hundred yuan!
If you don’t run a household, you don’t know how expensive firewood and rice are. Once you become a householder... Gu Nanzhi will feel bad if she spends even a hundred dollars.
Mother Xie was also distressed, but seeing her daughter-in-law's distressed look, she turned around and comforted her, "Didn't you say that acupuncture is good for the eldest brother's health? And the medicinal materials are more expensive to buy. With the tools, we can collect and process the herbs ourselves and save money! We don't have to feel distressed!"
Gu Nanzhi: “…”
That being said, however, if you want to give Xie Zhenting the best treatment, it would be a bottomless pit!
Seven prescriptions cost twenty yuan. That was it. She hadn’t even bought the most expensive herbs in the prescription she prepared for Xie Zhenting…
Going up the mountain to collect herbs must be put on the agenda!
If she relies entirely on shopping, the money she has left won’t last her for two months!
Gu Nanzhi was worried, and it was not until Xie's mother took her to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some cloth and a two-foot red rope that she smiled again.
She is now wearing Xie Ruyun's old clothes and her hair is tied up with a rag. Gu Nanzhi, who used to have someone to take care of her food, clothing, housing and transportation, never thought that one day she would be so happy to have a new set of clothes and a new hairband!
But as time goes by and things change, happiness comes so easily!
Gu Nanzhi was easily satisfied, and the two of them went home happily. However, they did not expect that as soon as they arrived at the village entrance, they saw a crowd of people gathered in front of their house, and the sound of people smashing pots and bowls and cursing could be heard...
"How can we still live like this? You are raising a divorced girl's child, and buying a wife for the living dead. How can we still live like this?"
