Chapter 42: Marrying Another Wife
As soon as Gu Tang saw the medicine jar, her mouth began to taste bitter. She shook her head hastily: "Wait until I come back from the mountain before drinking it! I'm afraid if I drink it now, it will be too bitter and I won't want to go up the mountain anymore!"
After saying this, she ran out of the kitchen as if escaping!
When she was about to reach the gate of the courtyard, Mr. Gu from the east wing suddenly called her, "Si Ya! Stop for a moment. I have something to ask you."
Gu Tang paused, turned around, and greeted with a smile on his face: "Grandpa, you seem to be in much better condition today. Grandma said yesterday that you couldn't get out of bed for the past two days."
Feng, who was standing behind Mr. Gu, exploded when she heard this.
When did she say that her husband couldn't get out of bed? !
This damn girl is not only vicious and cruel, but also shameless!
You can tell all kinds of nonsense and lies!
Just like her vixen mother!
The more Feng thought about it, the angrier she became, and she was about to walk out from behind Mr. Gu and start scolding him.
Mr. Gu knew his wife very well. He immediately turned around and glared at her, suppressing her directly and signaling her with his eyes not to speak.
Mrs. Feng felt very aggrieved, but she didn't dare to go against her husband and could only endure it.
Seeing that his old wife was suppressed, Mr. Gu forced a smile and asked Gu Tang about Wei's matter.
"Your aunt went out yesterday and hasn't come back yet. You went in and out of the mountain yesterday. Did you see your aunt?"
"I haven't seen that." Gu Tang shook his head, his expression normal.
Mr. Gu's face froze, and he asked again, "Did you really not see it? Don't be prejudiced against me just because you had a fight with your aunt."
"Master, I don't understand what you're saying. You asked me if I've ever seen my aunt, and I said no, but you didn't believe me! From what you said, it sounded like I knew where my aunt was."
Mr. Gu's eyes flickered and he was a little speechless.
Gu Tang pretended not to see it, and then said: "You shouldn't ask me this question. Who in this family doesn't know that my aunt likes to wear long skirts and stroll around the village?
Why didn't you go to the village to ask around, but asked about me? I go into the mountains every day. Can my aunt-in-law follow me into the mountains in a long skirt? ”
As soon as these words were spoken, those who had something to hide were startled and their faces changed at once!
The timid Gu Lian loosened her hands, and the broken window frame in her hand fell and hit her feet.
She screamed and sat on the ground instantly, rubbing her feet to relieve the pain.
Gu Tang glanced at her with a half-smile, said nothing more, turned around, left the Gu family and went into the mountains.
"What are you standing there for? Follow her into the mountains!" Feng pushed the sisters Gu Qing and Gu Lian and scolded them in a low voice, asking them to follow Gu Tang into the mountains.
Gu Qing and Gu Lian didn't want to go, but with the Gu family's two elders pressuring them, the two sisters dared not say a word and followed them, suppressing their dissatisfaction.
After the two sisters left the yard, Feng asked Gu Mei and Gu Laian to continue dismantling the broken window frame, while she and her husband returned to the main room.
As soon as they entered the inner room of the hall, Feng closed the door and asked quietly, "Did you see anything? Did that damn girl know that the eldest son's wife followed her into the mountains?"
Old Master Gu hesitated, and shook his head after a while: "She doesn't look like she knows. If she really knew, she would be a little panicked when we asked her like this.
A girl of twelve or thirteen is at an age where she can’t keep secrets. If she really wants to know something, she will most likely reveal it…”
Mrs. Feng nodded and agreed with her husband: "I don't think so either."
Old Master Gu sighed, "Since it has nothing to do with Si Ya, the eldest son's wife probably got lost after entering the mountain. She is not familiar with the forest. It was still dark yesterday. Although there were torches, her vision was obstructed. It is normal for her to get lost."
Feng paused, anger rising in her heart: "In the past few years since she married into our family, I can't even count the number of times I've gone into the mountains to dig wild vegetables with my ten fingers! If I hadn't thought of being lazy in the past, I wouldn't have gotten lost in the mountains today!"
"It's too late to say anything now. We should quickly find someone to help search for her. There are many wolves, tigers and leopards in the mountains. She is a woman who has spent a night alone in the mountains. It's uncertain whether she is still alive. It's important to quickly find her..."
"Why are you looking for her? Just let her die in the mountains! Find a wife for the eldest brother next year!" Feng suddenly said this viciously.
Mr. Gu didn't expect his wife to have such an idea. He was shocked and looked at her speechless.
These words were originally spoken in anger, but as soon as they came out, Feng's eyes lit up, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that this was feasible.
She leaned close to Mr. Gu's ear and said something: "Do you still remember the Tongsheng Master from Qili Village?"
"Of course I remember this! He and our eldest son were both students of the same year!"
"That's right. He is a student of the same year as our eldest son, but a little younger. Last year, his wife died. At the beginning of this year, he married the daughter of a landlord in their village. The landlord gave him five acres of top-quality land as a dowry!"
Five acres of prime farmland? !
Mr. Gu grabbed Feng's arm and asked with red eyes, "Really?!"
"It couldn't be more true! Just go and ask around!" Feng said with certainty.
Mr. Gu stopped talking.
He sat down on the bed, head down, thinking.
Mrs. Feng knew that her husband was moved, so she said no more.
Outside the east wing of the house, brother and sister Gu Mei and Gu Laian were slowly dismantling the window frames, each with a gloomier look than the other.
Gu Mei glanced at Gu Laian and suddenly asked, "Did you tell grandma what I told you yesterday?"
Gu Laian froze: "...Not yet. I was dragged here to work early in the morning. I'm hungry and tired. How can I remember what happened yesterday..."
Gu Mei was so angry at his indifferent look that she left him and went to the main room.
A useless thing! You can't count on anything!
She still has to rely on herself!
…
Gu Tang, who had already entered the mountain, was completely unaware of the various plans of the Gu family members.
Before entering the mountain, she saw the sisters Gu Qing and Gu Lian following her from a distance.
To this end, she deliberately walked around the foot of the mountain, got rid of the two sisters, and randomly chose a small path to enter the mountain.
As soon as we entered the forest, we headed straight for a hidden cave.
After arriving at the cave, he briefly checked whether there was any danger in the cave. After confirming that it was safe, he took out three incense sticks from the system backpack.
He lit it with a lighter and bowed to the four directions of east, west, south, and north.
She would also mention all the gods in heaven, no matter if they were the Jade Emperor, Buddha, Jesus or Mary, as long as they were gods, she would mention them all!
After worshipping, Gu Tang stuck the incense into the soil and felt that she had become more and more feudal and superstitious since she traveled through time!
For a little bit of good luck, people are becoming more and more shameless!
After tidying up my clothes, I called up the system panel to sign in.
【bite! Congratulations to the host for completing today's sign-in! Get a moose! 】
Um? ? ?
Um! ! !
What's the name of that song?
Good luck! I wish you good luck! Good luck brings joy and love...
She is just like this song at this moment!
Good luck! ! !
Gu Tang turned around and hugged a tree, as if he was hugging a relative or friend with whom he could share his joy, while smiling and singing "Good Luck Comes".
It looks a bit eye-catching!
