Although he trusted his daughter-in-law very much, after hearing too many rumors, Gu Yanzhang also had some bad suspicions in his heart.

Any normal person would be suspicious.

Now every time Gu Yanzhang met someone in the village, he had to face their suspicious eyes. Sometimes he was forced to listen to their nonsense.

After a long time, the evil fire in Gu Yanzhang's heart slowly emerged. Sometimes, he couldn't help but lose his temper with his parents or his sons at home.

"I've told you many times, don't say bad things about my wife in front of me!"

Tonight, Gu Yanzhang suddenly heard his father mention the rumors in the village. Gu Yanzhang, with a sullen face, said in a very firm tone, "Dad, haven't you heard it? A harmonious family brings prosperity. This has never happened. Don't say it again!"

"No matter what, I believe in my wife. I don't think my wife is that kind of person!"

Gu Yanzhang has been married to his wife for more than 10 years and has raised 6 children in total. Now, all four sons have married. Moreover, next year, he and his wife can become grandparents.

Gu Yanzhang found it hard to believe that a person who is about to become a grandmother could cheat on him behind his back?

How could she be so close to a young man outside, talking and laughing?

Moreover, the people in the village had spread the news that his wife's lover was a real handsome man. Moreover, the handsome man's family conditions were not bad, and he was generous...

As a man, Gu Yanzhang had thought carefully that his wife was already quite old. She was in her thirties, a middle-aged woman. Although she was quite pretty, he really couldn't believe that those rich and powerful, handsome young men in the city could be interested in her.

Gu Yanzhang felt that he really didn't look down on his wife, but he knew very well in his heart how high the standards and how picky their tastes were for those rich, powerful, and handsome young men.

Seeing his father's eyes full of dissatisfaction, Gu Yanzhang had to suppress his impatience and stared at him and said, "Dad, we have lived here for such a long time, don't you know what kind of people in the village are like?!?"

"Those people always hate others for what they have and laugh at others for what they don't. Since our family's conditions have improved and are much better than before, these people hate us with gnashing teeth. Every time there is any disturbance in our family, they want to let everyone in the world know."

"People like this, are their words trustworthy?"

Gu Yu'an listened, his mouth opened and closed, but he couldn't help it and said in a suppressed tone, "Son, they are our blood relatives after all, why are their words not trustworthy?"

"I think you think our family is rich and you can be arrogant, so you look down on those relatives..."

Gu Yanzhang didn't want to argue with his father on this issue. Because he felt that the more they argued, the more meaningless it would be.

Every time he talked about those poor relatives, his father liked to say such things to him.

Actually, Gu Yanzhang didn't look down on poor relatives.

Because their family used to be particularly poor. Moreover, their family used to be extremely poor, with nothing but four walls and nothing at all.

However, he told his father this idea countless times. But his father was determined that he would be arrogant after he became rich.

Every time he told his father, he should be careful with certain relatives in the village. His father seemed to be stimulated by something, and his voice would be raised by octaves.

Thinking of this, Gu Yanzhang said to his father in a low voice, "Dad, since you have already determined in your heart that I look down on those relatives, then so be it, you can think so, I don't want to tell you anymore anyway." With that

, Gu Yanzhang put all the things he wanted to sell on the donkey cart. Then, he took his eldest son and youngest son and hurriedly drove a donkey cart to the county town.

The three of them, father and son, were still talking in the car, "... We ordinary people should live a down-to-earth life. Don't look for trouble all day long. Dazhu and Erzhu, I think you should learn more from your father. Don't learn from your grandfather! Don't listen to the rumors outside, and then find trouble with your wife all day long."

At this moment, Gu Dazhu and Gu Erzhu nodded in unison after hearing this.

In fact, in their hearts, they didn't believe that their mother would look for a lover outside without their father's knowledge.

They knew very well that their mother was already an old woman. She has given birth to 6 children, and her body shape and other aspects are definitely not as good as those of young people.

For such an old lady, which man with money, power, and status is willing to spend money to play with her?

Therefore, the two adopted sons of Chen Xuanxuan in this life, Gu Dazhu and Gu Erzhu, have made a solemn promise to their father, "Dad, don't worry, we don't believe a word of what outsiders say. Because we know very well in our hearts that mom has always been an honest and kind person in her work and life." "Dad,

...but our mom has been out for so many days, shouldn't you take her home?"

After hearing his son's suggestion, Gu Yanzhang thought about it seriously, then raised his hand and scratched his hair which had not been washed for 10 days or half a month.

"I went to the county this time, really wanting to take your mom home. It's a pity that she has been very busy recently.

"Besides, I have a lot of things on hand. If I let your mother go home early now, won't those people in the village bully her every day? ? "

"Hey, your mother..."

As he spoke, Gu Yanzhang's eyes turned red. He felt that his wife had indeed suffered a lot in the past few years.

"It hasn't been easy for your mother these years!"

Hearing Gu Yanzhang start to talk about the past, Gu Dazhu and Gu Erzhu couldn't help but nodded.

"Dad, we all know it!"
