Hearing the people in the village say such things, Gu Yanzhang asked in surprise, "What happened to my wife? My wife and her mother live well in the Huang family. You have never seen what kind of life the Huang family lives. They have food to eat and clothes to wear. He lives much better there than in our home..."

Hearing Gu Yanzhang say this, the people who said those words to him at that time couldn't help but grit their teeth. They really hated him for not living up to his expectations.

They often thought at home that if their son married such a wife, they would definitely not be as blind as the people in this family!

People are actually afraid of comparison.

Even if they are husband and wife living in the same house, they are actually particularly afraid of comparison.

The men in the village always think that if their wife's family lives better than theirs, or if their wife's family is strong and takes their wife there to live a good life, they will definitely not do it. They

often think in their hearts, why should they live such a hard life at home while their wife can live such a good life in someone else's family?

This is totally unfair!

"Yan Zhang, don't be so stupid and stubborn with us now. Just listen to our advice. Hurry up and bring your wife back! Otherwise, your wife might be pregnant with another man's child..." "And

this man should not be with a green-haired turtle that glows green all over. Otherwise, if such a thing gets out, people will laugh at our village..."

After hearing this, Gu Yan Zhang felt really heavy and he suddenly felt a sense of pressure.

"Seventeenth uncle, please stop saying such things. Don't you know what kind of person my wife is? She married into our family more than ten years ago and gave birth to six children for me. Now my four sons with her are all married. We are both in our 30s and are about to become grandparents. How could she find a man outside and cheat on me?!" When

Gu Yanzhang's seventeenth uncle heard this, he reacted strongly, "Gu Yanzhang, you are so old, how can you still be so naive? Who told you that a woman can't cheat after she becomes a grandmother, and can't cheat on a man? Why don't you think about your wife's mother?"

"Your mother-in-law is so old. To be honest, an old lady in her 50s or 60s can actually remarry?! Don't you think this is the most rare thing in the world?"

"And the captain Huang in the county town, what kind of look is that? I have never seen a man of such an old age who wants to marry such an old lady in my life. What do you think your mother-in-law wants from that man?"

The seventeenth uncle, who looks to be over 50 years old, talks about this matter like the Yellow River, and it is endless.

In his opinion, this matter is really too crazy. It has completely broken his three views, his bottom line, and his cognition, so that he has been brooding over it for these days.

Gu Yanzhang also noticed his resentment, so he took a deep breath and said to him in a gentle voice, "Seventeenth Uncle, I don't think you should say that. After all, our place is very close to Chenjia Village. That... my mother-in-law's relatives all live in Chenjia Village. Moreover, many of the Liu family's wives married into Chenjia Village. If they heard what you said, and then such a thing accidentally reached my mother-in-law's ears, then at that time, it would be a mess for both parties..."

"You know what kind of temper and personality my mother-in-law has. After someone says something bad about her, she will definitely remember it and hate it in her heart. Seventeenth uncle, I don't want my mother-in-law to come to your house in person and cause trouble for you after hearing it..."

Gu Yanzhang's seventeenth uncle is not a rich and powerful family. On the contrary, his family is particularly poor, but they like to follow rules.

In other words, they are the kind of family that likes to be particular.

Those who like to be particular and show off are actually the ones who are most likely to bully the weak and fear the strong.

These people keep talking about rules all the time, but deep down they don't really like to follow the rules. Instead, they want others to listen to them, do what they want, and approve of the rules they set.

Gu Yanzhang knew very well what his relative was thinking. He didn't want to listen to him, so he said to him seriously, "Seventeenth Uncle, time is still very precious. My mother-in-law told me a few days ago to go over early today and help Captain Huang with some things..." "You should know that Captain

Huang has connections and abilities. The things he asks me to do are usually more important. If I work hard and complete the tasks he asks me to do, I will definitely get the corresponding rewards."

"Just like what happened some time ago, Captain Huang asked me to recruit workers. I didn't hesitate. When I came back, I told the village chief, clan leader, and other people in the village about this good thing."

"..."

Uncle Seventeen wanted to say something when he heard this, but soon he shut his mouth wisely.

Because at this moment, he had already thought about it. The job that Gu Yanzhang introduced before did bring a lot of benefits to his family.

And that job, in the final analysis, was actually due to the relationship between the boy in front of him and his mother-in-law, and between his mother-in-law and Captain Huang.

Uncle Seventeen has lived to this age, and he actually has some ideas.

He knew that in this place, people who had no money, no power, no influence, and no connections could only maintain their own food and clothing no matter what they did.

Sometimes, they could not even solve the problem of their own food and clothing.

However, those who had some connections were different.

As long as they had some connections, they could at least find a job in the county. For example,

they could be waiters in a tavern. Or they could be small traders in the county

. Those scoundrels in the county were actually particularly bullying.

Once they were discovered by them, those small traders in the county would come to them if they had no connections with the official service or could not get along with those powerful people.

They want this or that.
