The old man slowly raised his eyes, his gaze lingering on Xiao Cunyu for a moment, then glanced at Lian Shi, "I haven't tasted anything fresh in a while. Go buy a pound of pork tomorrow morning and make my favorite meat pie."
"Yes, my daughter-in-law understands." Lian paused for a moment while holding the bowl of rice, and then said with a bad look on her face.
Xiao Cunyu felt something was strange.
"My cousin said that I can stay here for a while, but I think I can't eat and drink for free. Old man, do you have any hobbies? I can get up early in the future and accompany you to relax." Xiao Cunyu said again.
Lian Shi really got nervous and immediately said, "Dad doesn't like quarrels. Doesn't my cousin want to go out and find a job? There's no need to worry about anything else."
"Don't worry, cousin. I used to be the most likable person at home. I can even tell stories. The old man will be in better health with me as his companion. Don't worry! I don't treat you as an outsider. Your father-in-law is naturally my elder. It is my duty to be filial to my elders." Xiao Cunyu said shamelessly.
He didn't want to be annoying, but only by observing and talking more could he find out more information.
Lian's eyes were a little panicked: "Dad, the child is ignorant and made a little noise, please don't blame me."
"Just bake more meat patties tomorrow," the old man said.
Meat pie? Xiao Cunyu always felt that there was something fishy about this.
Guo Baocheng didn't react at all, and just said calmly: "Listen to Dad."
With a "bang", the chopsticks in the hand of the young lady from the Guo family next to her fell, and her hand trembled, "Mom..."
Lian was a little nervous. She held her daughter's hand and smiled a little forcedly. "Dad, my cousin just arrived. Why don't you let them take Xiaohu out for a walk tomorrow? I can make the meat patties by myself. Oh, my cousin is having a hard time right now. He knew that our family always loves to do good things and can help him, so he came to us. His family also did my dad a favor in the past..."
"Okay." The old man's words were simple.
Lian seemed relieved.
At this moment, no matter how stupid Lian Jing was, he could feel that something was wrong in this family.
But now he didn't know what his daughter was afraid of, so he was confused and just wanted to wait for Xiao Cunyu's arrangements.
In the first half of the night, Xiao Cunyu sneaked around Guo's house, including Mr. Guo's room.
The Guo family is really quiet. There are very few servants, and their living quarters are separated from the master's house. After the servants prepare the meals, they go to clean up and will never set foot in the master's yard again.
Xiao Cunyu also went to Old Master Guo's house, but there was nothing special there either.
She thought about it and asked Lian Jing to watch here and call him if there was any movement.
Xiao Cunyu slept for a while. In the middle of the night, Lian Jing came back as expected, looking very angry. "I really didn't expect that their family, despite being a humble family, has so many rules! They don't need the servants at home, but in the middle of the night, they actually asked my daughter to run to the father-in-law's room to serve him!"
Lian Jing was furious. "Sir, you're right. There really is something wrong with their family! As soon as the hour of Chou arrived, my daughter hurriedly waited at the door for a full half hour. When she heard a noise in the house, she quickly helped the old man up and helped him get up to go to the bathroom! My daughter turned around in a daze and waited. That old man, that old man..."
Lian Jing was crying as he spoke. "That old man couldn't pee properly and actually peed on my daughter's clothes! Guo Yulai is not a human being! He's obviously used to doing this kind of thing. The girl was wronged, but he didn't react at all. He covered Guo Yulai with the quilt and emptied the chamber pot. It was so cold in the middle of the night. She was wearing thin clothes and was stained with dirt. He was busy changing clothes, but that loser Guo Baocheng was sleeping like a dead pig!"
