Chapter 40 No One Says Kiss
The scars on Gu Lian's face were like a basin of cold water, instantly extinguishing Gu Qing's anger.
She staggered a few steps with a pale face, then lay on the couch and cried: "Wuwuwu... Dad is too sick to get up, Mom is nowhere to be found, and Tianbao can't support the family... If there is a strong person, she would not let others bully her like this! Wuwuwu..."
Gu Lian glanced at her, somewhat dissatisfied that she was dragging her younger brother into this matter, "How old is Tianbao? He is still a scholar at a young age, how can you expect him to help you? If you were a strong person, you wouldn't have to rely on this and that today!"
Gu Qing sat up suddenly, pointed at Gu Lian and cursed: "You rotten-hearted girl! How dare you lecture me! Do you think you can bully others in this family just because your mother is not here?"
Gu Lian pursed her lips and said nothing.
It would be fine if Gu Qing didn't get angry, but if he did, Gu Lian would still be afraid of Gu Qing.
"Speak! Why don't you say anything? Mother has only been away for a day, and you are so excited!" Gu Qing had a ferocious look on his face, and stretched out his hand to pinch Gu Lian's waist!
The pinch was obviously done with great force, and Gu Lian, who was usually able to endure it, cried out in pain: "Ah!!!"
The pain in the piece of flesh on my waist became so severe that I lost all feeling in it, as if it had been pinched off.
Gu Tianbao in the inner room heard his second sister's screams of pain and immediately lifted the curtain and rushed out.
He pushed Gu Qing to the ground and scolded her with a frown: "Who in this family can be as happy as you! When you encounter bad things, you expect others to help you. If you encounter good things, you run faster than a rabbit!"
Gu Qing felt embarrassed and annoyed by these words, and she stood up to hit him.
Gu Tianbao was spoiled by Wei since he was a child, and he was known for his bad temper. Upon seeing this, he kicked him.
"I'm not your second sister. Do you want to get angry with me? If you piss me off, I can beat you to death!"
Gu Qing screamed after being kicked and fell to the ground again, covering his stomach. He was unable to get up for a long time.
Gu Tianbao spat at her and pushed Gu Lian and him into the inner room, telling them not to pay attention to their elder sister.
Watching the brother and sister go into the inner room together, Gu Qing's eyes turned red with hatred, but he didn't dare to chase them and yell at them, so he could only lie on the ground and cry.
Ever since the sisters in the eldest room started quarreling, Gu Tang, who was standing outside the door, curiously leaned on the door and listened to the noise inside the house.
I didn't expect that there would be such discord between the three siblings of the first wife.
In the past, I only knew that Gu Qing had always bullied Gu Lian, but unexpectedly, she even looked down on Gu Tianbao.
And the eldest wife's darling, I thought he was a spineless and useless kid, but who would have thought he was actually someone who knew how to protect others.
Gu Tang clicked his tongue twice. He originally wanted to laugh at the eldest son's family's joke, but then he changed his mind and realized that his brothers and sisters in his own house were just as discordant.
This is really... We are all the same, so no one should make fun of anyone else!
Glancing back at Feng who had fainted on the ground, Gu Tang returned to the west wing carrying the hammer.
When he passed by Feng, he took advantage of the darkness and no one could see, and stepped on Feng's right hand, deliberately crushing it several times, causing Feng to groan in pain and was about to wake up.
Gu Tang quickly withdrew his foot and returned to the house as if nothing had happened.
Not long after, Gu Lianshan came back with the ox cart. As soon as he entered the yard, he stepped on Feng.
Gu Lianshan's kick was quite clever and he actually stepped on Feng's little foot. Feng immediately woke up screaming in pain, which scared Gu Lianshan!
"Mom? Why are you lying on the ground so late at night?" Gu Lianshan accused Feng in a bad mood, without mentioning the fact that he stepped on someone.
When Feng woke up, she burst into tears subconsciously when she saw her son. She scolded Gu Tang for what he had just said to her son, calling him vicious and evil, and saying that he had ruined the reputation of the first wife's family. If the first wife's family had any problems in the future, all the blame would be on Gu Tang.
Gu Lianshan didn't believe it. In his eyes, his mother didn't tell the truth.
He impatiently tore off the fig leaf of the eldest wife's family: "Go ask around in the village, what is the reputation of the eldest wife's family? The eldest brother's daughter is already fifteen this year! She will be sixteen after the Chinese New Year! Has anyone come to propose marriage? Do you really not know what's going on here?"
This question stumped Feng, and she fell silent for a moment.
"Second brother!"
An angry shout came from the main room. Old Master Gu came out of the room at some point and stood with his back to the light, making it impossible to see his face.
He scolded his son, "What nonsense are you talking about! What good will it do you to ruin your niece's reputation? We are all family, but it's hard to find a wife for your eldest brother's daughter, but it's easy to find a wife for your daughters and daughters?!"
"It doesn't matter to my son! I will support my daughter even if she can't get married! I will also support my son even if he can't get a wife! Do you want to put the blame on my daughter? That won't do! This son will never stand for it!"
After saying this, Gu Lianshan no longer paid attention to his parents and turned to go to the kitchen.
Feng sat on the cold ground for a while, then she got up tremblingly and went back to the house without saying a word.
Old Master Gu was still standing at the door, with his back to the light, wondering what he was thinking about.
After a while, he let out a long sigh, his back suddenly hunched over, and he looked several years older.
In the kitchen, Gu Lianshan saw his son boiling water and cooking again, and his anger instantly rose, "Where are your older brother and sister?"
"They have eaten. Grandma asked them to help look for my aunt today and gave them two bowls of porridge."
"What about you? Did you eat it too?"
Gu Ping'an shook his head: "No, grandma asked me to go with you to look for my aunt, but I thought my second sister's medicine was still in the room, and our room was not locked. I was afraid that no one would watch the room when I left, and grandma would take the opportunity to secretly throw away my second sister's medicine. So I didn't agree to go, and grandma was angry and didn't give me the porridge."
Gu Lianshan: ...His mother is the best nanny in the village!
He lifted the lid of the pot and saw that the water inside was already boiling. He waved to his son, "Stop boiling it. Take the stove to your second sister's room and cook some porridge there later."
"Porridge?" Gu Ping'an raised his head suddenly, his eyes sparkling. "Is it the kind of white rice porridge? I've seen my uncle eat it before, and it smelled delicious!"
Gu Lianshan's heart ached, and he forced a smile and nodded to his son: "Yes, white rice porridge. Your second sister bought several dozen kilograms, and you just helped to move it into the house. Didn't your second sister tell you?"
"I didn't ask. I thought it was millet flour, but it turned out to be white rice?!" Gu Ping'an did not hide the joy on his face at all. He picked up the stove and ran to Gu Tang's room.
Gu Lianshan wiped his face, feeling uncomfortable and aching in his heart.
The child grew up to this age, and he only ate rice oil for a few months when Zhang stopped feeding him milk. After he grew teeth, his family refused to give him white rice, and the child has never eaten white rice since then.
But his eldest brother's family would sneak a few meals from time to time.
