Chapter 154: After the beating, he continued to work

At this point, Gu Tang's eyes turned cold and he squinted at him: "So whether I use the money to buy Sanlang a place to sit in on the class or throw it into the water to hear the noise, it's all my business! Dad didn't even ask anything about it, so who do you think you are? You actually come to ask me!"

The fierce look frightened Gu Laian and made his drowsy mind clearer.

But when he thought about Gu Ping'an going to Changshan Academy as an auditor, his eyes turned red with jealousy, and he still shouted: "My master said! Girls without a family background, no matter how much they earn, it's all public! You have to give me half of the money from selling the deer!"

Gu Tang paused, and finally looked him in the eye: "You idiot who was used as a gun! Do you think that since we are moving, I will be afraid to hit you?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Laian subconsciously took two steps back and felt timid.

But at this moment, Gu Mei behind him actually instigated him with a vicious voice: "Why are you afraid of her?! You are just a kid, if you are willing to kill her, are you afraid that you can't beat a girl like her?!"

It is said that alcohol makes cowards brave. After Gu Mei's instigation, Gu Lai'an really believed what Gu Mei said.

He glared at Gu Tang viciously, and his words became more and more asshole-like: "I am the eldest son of the family, and all the money in this family will be mine in the future! No matter how much you earn, you have to hand it over to me, it's all mine!

Now that you've spent money to ask Sanlang to pay for an audition, you can't just let this go! Either you let me replace Sanlang as an auditor, or you give me another hundred taels of silver to compensate me! Otherwise, I will beat you to death today! ”

After saying that, he turned and walked towards the cart, pulled out a piece of firewood from the cart, and held it in his hand to threaten Gu Tang.

Gu Tang didn't give him any face at all and spat at him with contempt: "You are worse than pigs and dogs! I'm telling you straight now, wait another two years and I'll let you share it! Don't even think about sharing a penny of the money I earned or my father's!"

These words touched Gu Laian's bottom line. Although he was not favored, it did not prevent him from looking at everything in the family from the perspective of the eldest son.

In his opinion, he was the eldest son, and everything in the family should belong to him, just like his grandfather, who gave all the Gu family's belongings to his uncle. Their second branch got nothing, and finally had no choice but to choose to be adopted out.

Since his grandfather did this, his father should do the same. Give him all the things in the house and drive Sanlang and the others out. It would be best if they were all adopted out like his father did!

But now Gu Tang actually told him that he would be separated from him in the future.

Gu Laian believed this.

His father is blind and only favors Si Ya. Si Ya must know something, so she dares to say this!

That is to say, in two years, his father will really separate him from his family!

The more Gu Laian thought about it, the more irrational he became. His eyes turned red and he clenched the firewood in his hand tighter and tighter. Finally, he raised it high and hit Gu Tang.

Gu Tang did not hide. He put his hands behind his back and secretly took out a handful of sandalwood powder from the system backpack and held it in his hand.

When Gu Laian approached, he threw the sandalwood powder in his hand directly at his face, instantly "blinding" his eyes.

As soon as the sandalwood powder entered his eyes, Gu Laian screamed and cursed: "Ah!!! My eyes! My eyes! Damn girl! What did you sprinkle on my face?!"

Gu Laian hurriedly threw away the firewood and stopped, rubbing and wiping his eyes with both hands, trying to get the foreign object out of his eyes.

But he couldn't see anything, so he instinctively scratched his eyes, but instead of getting the foreign object out, his eyes became more painful and his tears flowed more.

Gu Tang ignored him, quickly picked up the fallen firewood on the ground, and beat Gu Laian, causing him to scream.

"ah--"

The tragic screams echoed throughout the entire yard, startling the third uncle, Gu Ping'an, and the four aunts in the kitchen.

Gu Tang didn't care at all that there were outsiders present. He beat Gu Laian and started cursing.

"You shameless idiot! Just because someone else said something sinister, you got so carried away and started to mess with me! I think we don't need to wait another two years. When dad comes back, I will have him kick you out of the house and let you fend for yourself!"

"This, this is..." Third Uncle stared at the scene in amazement, too shocked to speak.

Gu Pingan was very calm: "It's okay, sir, it must be my elder brother who made a mistake again."

The third uncle's heart choked. Whose eldest brother would make a mistake and be beaten and scolded by his younger sister?

Gu Laian was a coward, and after being hit two or three times, he began to admit defeat and beg for mercy, crying and saying that he was wrong and asked Gu Tang not to bother with him and let him go.

Gu Tang remained unmoved and slapped him more than ten times before he finally vented his anger.

But that’s not all.

She looked towards the yard and saw Gu Mei quietly moving towards the east wing. Her face turned pale and she looked frightened now. She no longer had the vicious look on her face when she instigated Gu Laian.

Gu Tang looked at her actions coldly, sneered, and chased after her at a very fast speed with the firewood in his hand.

Because she felt guilty, Gu Mei didn't dare to look back, but she still heard the footsteps getting closer and closer. She suddenly panicked and ran subconsciously.

Unfortunately, it's too late to run now.

She had only taken a few steps when Gu Tang grabbed her hair and pulled her back hard, knocking her to the ground.

Gu Mei protected her head, her face twisted in pain, and she felt like her scalp was about to be pulled off. She screamed and cursed sharply, asking Gu Tang to let her go immediately.

Gu Tang sat on her, threw the firewood in his hand aside, and punched Gu Mei in the face left and right.

"ah--"

Gu Mei screamed in pain and no longer cared about cursing. She kept shouting that she was wrong and protecting her face.

This really hurts.

Last time, Gu Mei's face had been hit by Gu Tang from both sides. Because he hit her too hard and no one bought her medicine to apply on her face, the injuries on Gu Mei's face healed very slowly and have not healed yet.

Now he was being attacked from both sides by Gu Tang again. His face, which had already been injured, was further injured and the pain was doubled.

Gu Tang turned a deaf ear to him and just beat Gu Mei's cheek until it was broken and bleeding. He also smeared her hands and face. The scene before him looked like murder and bleeding.

Looking at the blood on his hands, Gu Tang shook them off with disgust, then stood up and stopped.

At this time in the yard, except for the crying of Gu Mei and Gu Laian, no one else dared to make a sound.

Except for Gu Ping'an, everyone else, including his third uncle, looked at Gu Tang in horror.

Especially the four aunts who were dumbfounded at the kitchen door, they were the most shocked.

It was the first time they had seen Gu Tang violently beating up the brother and sister just now!

Gu Lianshan often said in public that his second daughter was a very good woman. She was filial to him as a father, and also loved and protected her brothers and sisters. She was the one he loved the most.

Whether Gu Lianshan was filial or not, they didn't know, but now they had confirmed one thing with their own eyes: this statement of loving and protecting their brothers and sisters was definitely fake!

After beating the man, Gu Tang felt better. He picked up the firewood and kicked Gu Mei to get her up.

"Go to the kitchen to get some water and wash your brother's eyes. After washing, continue to carry firewood for me! If you and your sister can't finish carrying the firewood before dark, you will be in trouble!"

Gu Mei shrank back in fear, her face now numb from the pain, but she didn't dare to hesitate at all. She just stood up when asked to, but she kept crying.

Gu Tang was annoyed by what he heard and glared at her: "Hold it back! Don't cry! Go get some water!"

Gu Mei was so scared that she took two steps back, and trying hard to hold back her tears, she walked towards the kitchen with trembling steps.

When the aunts in the kitchen saw Gu Mei coming, they hurried back to the kitchen, trying to pretend that they had not seen anything that had just happened.

Gu Mei couldn't care about them at this time. She sobbed softly while looking for a basin of water. Soon she went to find Gu Laian with the water.

The four aunts had been secretly looking at Gu Mei. Seeing her face covered in blood, they felt sorry for her, but no one spoke.

Gu Mei doesn't have a very good reputation in the village. Apart from anything else, all the girls in the village who have played with Gu Mei say that she is very competitive and jealous.

As long as Gu Mei likes something, she will shamelessly ask for it. If she is not given something, she will secretly destroy the thing so that no one can have it.

The aunts knew her character, so they pretended not to see it and didn't want to get into trouble.

Seeing Gu Mei fetching water, Gu Tang asked her to stop and wash her hands with the water in the basin. He continued to carry the firewood and asked Gu Mei to help Gu Laian clean his eyes.

Gu Tang stood next to the brother and sister, scolding and urging them from time to time, suppressing them completely.

After Gu Laian washed his eyes, he sobered up. He lowered his head and didn't even have the courage to look at Gu Tang. He was really scared of being beaten.

Gu Mei also looked at the water and tried to wash the blood off her face. When she saw her miserable appearance, tears started to fall again.

"What are you still standing there for? Did you ignore what I just said? Hurry up and unload the firewood from the cart to the backyard, then pull the cart back home and continue moving firewood!"

Gu Tang yelled at the siblings impatiently, waving the firewood in his hand, which made a whistling sound. The siblings were frightened and staggered towards the cart. Then they pulled the cart together and went to the backyard.

Seeing that the brother and sister had really behaved themselves, Gu Tang put the firewood in the corner with satisfaction, went to the corridor of the main hall, and apologized to his third uncle.

"Master, are you scared? It's all my fault. I forgot you were still in the room. I was just mad at my elder brother and sister, so I hit them. Normally, I never hit them."

Hearing this, Gu Ping'an immediately lowered his head.

He didn't know how to hide his emotions, for he was afraid that his third uncle would see from his face that his second sister was lying.

Although he didn't see Gu Ping'an's face, Third Uncle still couldn't fool her. He pointed at Gu Tang and wanted to scold her, but this was his granddaughter who was just getting acquainted with him and whose temperament and character were very much to his liking, so he really couldn't bear to scold her.

Finally, he could only ask her angrily, "Why are you and your sister quarreling to such an extent?!"

Gu Tang did not hide it and told his third uncle everything Gu Laian had just said, as well as Gu Mei's instigation. In the end, he protested his own injustice with a look of grievance on his face.

"The clothes my eldest brother wears are made of new fabrics from me, and my eldest sister has also often taken things from me in the past, and I have never said a word of objection!

But you see, I haven't gotten anything good now, and I'm forced to give one hundred taels of silver to their sister and brother! Tell me, is there such a thing in the world? ! ”

So that's how it is.

Knowing that it was not Gu Tang who started the trouble, the Third Uncle heaved a sigh of relief, and his heart leaned more towards Gu Tang: "You should have told your father about this matter and let your father discipline them. You hit them without caring about anything. There are outsiders in the house. Do you still want to keep your reputation?"

Gu Tang blinked and admitted his mistake very straightforwardly: "Yes, I was impulsive and lost control of my temper. I promise, there will be no next time!"

Third Uncle smiled with satisfaction. This child was extremely sensible. He admitted his mistakes immediately when he knew they were wrong, without any hesitation or excuses.

"Come into the house with Third Uncle. You and your sister will be separated for a while. Calm down." Third Uncle turned around and went back to the house, asking Gu Tang to follow.

Gu Tang had no objection and followed briskly.

In the backyard, after unloading the firewood, the brother and sister pulled the cart to the front yard, took a furtive look, and when they didn't see Gu Tang, they all breathed a sigh of relief and walked out of the yard without stopping.

Although Gu Tang no longer stared at them, they all knew in their hearts that Gu Tang always kept his word.

If they didn't move all the firewood before dark, Gu Tang would definitely use this as an excuse to beat them again!

The brother and sister glanced at the sky. It would take at most two hours until dark, so they had to speed up. Otherwise, they might not be able to finish moving before dark.

…

This was Gu Lianshan's last trip. All his belongings had been moved. He chatted and laughed with others while walking towards the east of the village.

Halfway through the walk, I ran into brother and sister Gu Mei and Gu Laian.

At this time, Gu Mei's cheeks were red, swollen and torn, with traces of blood oozing out from the wounds, leaving a trail of bloody marks, while Gu Laian's eyes were red and swollen into slits.

The appearance of the brother and sister really shocked Gu Lianshan.

He stopped and asked the siblings what happened: "Did you do it yourself, or was it someone else who beat you?"

Neither the brother nor the sister said anything, they just kept walking forward with their heads down.

As soon as Gu Lianshan saw this situation, he understood. Well, it must have been his second daughter who beat him!

"My nephew and niece seem to be seriously injured. Brother Lianshan, you should hurry up and ask them. Make sure they are not bullied by outsiders and dare not tell their family members!"

The people who were helping to move the gear all looked worried and urged Gu Lianshan to keep up.

Gu Lianshan twitched his lips and did not dare to tell his guess to everyone, so he could only throw dirty water on the siblings.

"They often fight with each other. One time, one of them almost broke his arm! This time, I guess they fought each other. When we get home, we can ask our family members and find out the truth."

When they heard this, their eyes widened: "Can siblings fight so fiercely?"

"Both of you are stubborn! You won't let me, and I won't let you. Now we are tired of each other. Once we start fighting, we can't stop..."

sharp!

A few people looked at each other and thought that the eldest daughter of the Lianshan brothers was a woman of blood and cruel!

Gu Lianshan stopped talking and continued on his way, speeding up again. Soon he entered the house.

As soon as they arrived at the yard, Gu Lianshan asked a few people to unload their things first while he went to the main hall to look for someone.
