Chapter 149: A Good Hand of Cards Ruined
Hearing Gu Mei's voice, Gu Ping'an paused, slowed down, and turned his head to look.
"Ignore her!" Gu Tang walked on his own without looking back, letting Gu Ping'an continue walking forward.
"Oh!" Gu Ping'an responded, turned around and stopped being distracted.
Gu Mei also had bound feet, so she couldn't walk fast or run. She lagged behind her siblings, feeling angry and anxious!
There were too many things in her room and they were too messy. She didn't think there was anything when she didn't clean it up, but now that she cleaned it up, there were so many things that it was beyond her expectation.
If she were to move all this by herself slowly, she might not be able to finish it in three days!
Therefore, Gu Mei, who had originally wanted to move things by herself out of spite, now regretted it and no longer cared about her face. She hurriedly chased after Gu Tang and Gu Ping'an, wanting them to help her move.
But who would have thought that no matter how she shouted or chased from behind, the damn brother and sister in front just refused to stop or say a word to her.
No need to think, it must have been that damn girl Si Ya who did it on purpose!
Gu Mei became more and more angry as she chased them. She was so tired that she was out of breath and her feet were aching. Finally, she stopped chasing and cursed at the brother and sister who were running away.
"You stupid girl! I knew you were full of bad intentions! You took advantage of your father's partiality to you and tortured me in various ways! Just wait for me! When father comes back, I will definitely sue you!"
Gu Mei's shout startled the neighbors, and those who loved to join in the fun went out to talk to Gu Mei.
"Mei girl? What did your sister do to you? It's not nice to yell at her like that."
"Yes, your sister is capable and can earn money. As the eldest sister, you should love her more."
"That's right. You sisters are all grown-up girls now. Which grown-up girl would yell and curse in the street like this? Do you still want to keep your reputation?"
…
Gu Mei was so angry that she saw stars before her eyes. She was already furious, and when she heard that the neighbors were all supporting Gu Tang, her anger intensified even more.
"I'm her eldest sister! They say an eldest sister is like a mother. Not to mention scolding her, even a few spankings are justified!"
Everyone was choked by these words and immediately turned back to their house, no longer paying any attention to Gu Mei.
In the eyes of the villagers, this is a fool!
She is your biological sister. Although you are not born from the same mother, you grew up together. If you treat your sister well, how can she not benefit from you?
And there is the Gu family. It's not just Gu Mei who is stupid, most of the people in the family are stupid! Not many smart ones!
Take the Gu family's Si Ya for example. If she were in someone else's family, she would have been heartbroken and would never have tortured her like this every day.
Do the Gu family elders really think that everyone in the village doesn’t know about their biased and blind behavior? The guys just don't care to talk about their family.
Who wouldn’t laugh at the two elders of the Gu family in private?
Everyone pouted, slammed the door shut, and no one spoke to Gu Mei anymore.
Gu Mei became even angrier now. She felt that these people were just like Gu Tang, all of them were evil-hearted. They all looked down on her because she had lost her mother and had a brother who was a thief!
Gu Tang had already arrived at his third uncle's house, unlocked the car, pushed it into the yard, and started unloading things.
Gu Ping'an was a little worried: "Second sister, the clan leaders and elders are here today, and Third Uncle is also here. What if the eldest sister really sues you later?"
"What are you afraid of? Even if she really complains, what can happen? Dad won't believe her even if he believes in a ghost. As long as Dad doesn't believe her, no one else has anything to do with it." Gu Tang never took Gu Mei seriously.
In Gu Tang's opinion, this guy is stupid, he played a good hand badly.
Gu Mei lived peacefully for more than ten years under Zhang's nose without suffering any loss or abuse. Besides the fact that Zhang was too proud to treat her harshly, the most important reason was that her father valued the child.
Whenever the children came to him to complain, her father would definitely stand on the children's side. Zhang saw this clearly and therefore did not dare to treat Gu Mei harshly.
Similarly, because she understood this, Zhang tortured the original owner while PUAing her, so that no matter what unfair treatment the original owner received, she would be willing to stand with Zhang and would not tell anyone about the torture she had suffered.
When her father saw how much the original owner relied on Zhang, he thought that the mother and daughter had a deep affection for each other. In addition, he had not seen the original owner being treated harshly with his own eyes. In order not to break the affection between the mother and daughter, even though her father did not agree with some of Zhang's behavior, for the sake of the child, he turned a blind eye.
If Gu Mei could grasp this point and win her father over, the relationship between father and daughter would grow stronger over time. Even if she revealed her true nature in the future, her father's temper would still make him side with her.
Unfortunately, Gu Mei was stupid and was coaxed by her grandfather Zhu's nice words. She actually believed the nonsense that if there is a stepmother, there must be a stepfather. She actually became estranged from her father.
After her father found out what the Zhu family had done, he separated Gu Mei from the Zhu family. Except during festivals, Gu Mei was not allowed to go to the Zhu family alone.
I thought I could turn him around, but who would have thought that he would become more and more crooked, and his temperament became more and more left-wing. He instigated Gu Laian to take the lead and mess things up!
Her father was so angry that he disciplined her harshly for several years, but it was of no use. Instead, Gu Mei got involved with Feng again and became Feng's spy.
Whenever there was any incident in the second house, it would never be delayed overnight and Feng would know about it very quickly.
Her father really had no other choice but to give up on Gu Mei and let her go.
Gu Tang unloaded the things from the car one by one, with all sorts of random thoughts in her mind. If she were Gu Mei, the first thing she would do would be to learn from Zhang and control the original owner.
With a sister who is kind-hearted, able to make money and has a deep friendship with her, Gu Mei's life is definitely very enjoyable, and she can also "save" some pocket money for herself.
After unloading the things, Gu Tang pulled the cart towards Gu's house alone. As for Gu Ping'an, she asked him to go to the south of the village.
The four aunts who were invited to cook in the morning were still waiting at home. As soon as the time came, they would come to Gu's house immediately.
Now that they have moved, the banquet tonight can no longer be held at the Gu family's place, it should be held at Third Uncle's place.
You should inform people about this matter in advance and make sure they don't enter the wrong house.
When they pulled the cart into the yard, they saw Gu Mei sitting under the west wing corridor, staring at Gu Tang with a sinister look on her face.
Gu Tang turned a blind eye and parked the cart in the yard. She waited for her father to come back and move the bed and various household items.
"Oh! I thought you and your sister were eager to reincarnate, what happened? The King of Hell will not take you away?" Gu Mei suddenly said this in a sarcastic tone.
Gu Tang didn't give in at all and directly pushed back: "The King of Hell said that if he wants to take someone away, he will pick up someone like you who has done so many evil things! A good person like me must live a long, long time."
"Bah!" Gu Mei stood up in an instant, "If you are a good person, there will be no good people in this world!"
Gu Tang ignored this and continued, "By the way, the King of Hell asked me to tell you something, saying that he will come to take you away at three o'clock tonight."
"You!" Gu Mei's expression froze.
Regardless of whether this is true or false, it would make one's hair stand on end when someone says this.
Gu Tang didn't care about all this. After saying this, she went to the backyard. She wanted to open the lock on the firewood shed in the backyard, and later all the firewood would be moved away.
Gu Mei didn't dare to stop her forcefully and could only watch her go to the backyard with hatred.
When she could no longer see Gu Tang, she went forward with a droopy face, pulled the cart in front of her house, and started to move things onto the cart.
Gu Mei was not very good at tidying up or sorting things. The bags she used to pack her things were just some pieces of cloth or old clothes that she found at random.
These objects all have one characteristic: they are so old and have been washed countless times that they have become brittle and cannot be used to wrap heavy objects.
Gu Mei didn't understand any of this. She just piled things on top and then squeezed and tied them up with all her strength.
This resulted in many of her worn-out clothes and pieces of cloth being torn apart while she was moving them.
The things inside fell to the ground and were scattered everywhere.
Gu Mei was already in a very angry mood, and now she became even more irritable.
Just then, Gu Ping'an came back from outside with a cheerful step and a happy face.
Seeing this, Gu Mei rushed towards Gu Ping'an in a rage, "Where have you been?! If we can't find you, why did you come back? Why don't you just die outside and be done with it!"
Gu Ping'an had one foot about to step into the yard while the other foot was still outside. After being scolded, his temper flared up and he wanted to curse back.
The words were almost on the tip of his tongue when he suddenly caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of his eye. He took a step back without making a sound and glanced to the east.
There is an ox cart coming towards this side from the east, not far away. It seems to be his father's ox cart?
The words that Gu Tang had instilled in him in the past suddenly came to his mind. Gu Ping'an withdrew his gaze and hurried into the yard.
Then he whispered back to Gu Mei: "The ones who deserve to die the most in this family are you and Gu Laian. Without you and your brother, Dad can live with me and my second sister. That life will definitely be comfortable!"
These words instantly made Gu Mei lose her mind: "Little bastard! You and Si Ya are the ones who deserve to die! Your mother was unfaithful to her husband and remarried, giving birth to you two little bastards! If you have any sense of shame, you should just hit your head against the wall and die!"
Gu Ping'an didn't say anything this time. He just glared at her hatefully with a stubborn look on his face.
Seeing that she failed to convince the man with her scolding, Gu Mei became more and more aggressive. She stood in the corridor of the west wing, and without coming towards Gu Ping'an, she pointed at the man and started scolding him.
Her voice was sharp and her curses were full of foul language, without any of the decency of a girl. Her face was ferocious and scary, even more ferocious than those gossipy women in the village who were always quarreling with each other.
Gu Ping'an didn't say a word in reply, just lowered his head and let her scold him.
Gu Mei became more and more excited as she cursed, and at the end, she even picked up the broom at the door and threw it at Gu Ping'an.
Gu Ping'an didn't hide, but stood there stupidly. However, his ears moved and he heard footsteps coming from behind him, which was very anxious.
Then, a great force pulled him aside, avoiding the flying broom.
"What are you doing standing there like an idiot? Don't you know how to hide?!" Gu Lianshan suppressed his anger and scolded his son. Then he stood in front of him and glared at his daughter.
Gu Mei was so enraged at the moment that she only had eyes for Gu Ping'an. She didn't pay attention to what was going on around her, and didn't notice her father coming back from Bei'an City on a ox cart.
At this moment, when she suddenly saw her father rushing out, she was completely stunned!
When she came to her senses, she saw her grandfather, the clan leader, and her third uncle standing behind her father. Gu Mei's face turned pale and her whole body was shaking like a sieve. There were only two words in her mind: It's over!
Given Gu Lianshan's temper, if this was his son, he would have kicked him a long time ago!
But the person standing in front of me is a girl, a grown-up girl of marriageable age.
A girl's reputation is precious, especially when she is of marriageable age. Her reputation cannot be easily compromised. If this gets out, she will be looked down upon and it will be difficult for her to marry into a good family.
Gu Lianshan took a deep breath, not wanting to lose his temper in front of others: "Go back inside! I don't want to see you again today!"
Gu Mei's heart sank to the bottom.
What does her father mean by this? Don't want to see her today? !
We are moving today!
Since you don't want to see her, does that mean you don't want her to move there with you? Want to leave her here alone? !
The more Gu Mei thought about it, the more flustered she became. Not to mention going back to the house, if she didn't ask clearly now, she would probably be restless.
“Dad…Ah!!!”
Just as he was about to utter a word, he was suddenly hit hard from behind! Someone hit me hard on the back with something!
Gu Mei's face twisted in pain, she stumbled forward two steps, then turned her head and looked back: "Si Ya?!"
Standing behind her was Gu Tang, who had appeared out of nowhere, holding a carrying pole in his hand.
There was no need to think about it, the damn girl had just hit her with this carrying pole!
"You despicable girl! Are you crazy? How dare you hit me!" Gu Mei shouted in a timid manner. She was shocked that Gu Tang was so bold as to hit her in front of the clan leaders and elders!
Of course Gu Tang dared to hit her. Not only did she hit her, she also started to curse: "Shameless thing! You are still the eldest sister! You do such despicable things! From now on, I will only treat you as an enemy, not my eldest sister. People like you are not worthy of me calling you 'eldest sister'!"
Hearing this, Gu Mei became angry again. Gu Lianshan quickly scolded Gu Mei: "If you don't go back to your room, I will not stop you from getting beaten up later!"
After saying this, he winked at Gu Tang again, telling her to be careful, as the clan leaders and elders were all there and not to be too aggressive.
Gu Tang just rolled his eyes in response and refused to continue pretending.
In her opinion, the adoption document had been signed and the government office had been visited, so the matter was a done deal. Why would she pretend?
Besides, the words that Gu Mei just used were really infuriating!
The words he used were all dirty and smelly, as if everyone knew how to curse! Believe it or not, she can scold Gu Mei to death!
The wound on Gu Mei's face had not healed yet, and she was worried day and night about leaving scars. When she heard the word "being beaten", her mind instantly recalled the scene in which Gu Tang rode on her and attacked her left and right.
Every time she thought about it, she was still frightened, filled with hatred and fear.
It was the same at this time. His arrogance immediately deflated, his eyes became red, and he trotted back to the house.
Gu Tang was not satisfied and wanted to chase after him.
Gu Lianshan's eyelids twitched with shock, and he quickly stepped forward to stop the man: "Ancestor! Why are you giving her a hard time? Dad will punish her later!"
