Chapter 6 Theft

Chapter 6 Theft

Her father's voice got louder again, "Sister-in-law? I don't dare to recognize a sister-in-law like her! Whose sister-in-law would wish for the death of her brother-in-law and his family every day?"

Feng was so angry, "She just said a few words to your daughter. Who wants your whole family to die? What? As her aunt, she can't say anything?"

"You can't say that!" Her father was also very tough towards her own mother, Feng.

Feng was so angry that she wanted to hit him with a broom.

"I won't waste my time talking to you about that! I'm only going to settle accounts with those who caused the trouble!" Her father waved his hands impatiently at Feng and walked into the main room.

Immediately afterwards, bursts of cursing and sharp, piercing cries were heard from the main room, oh, and also continuous scolding.

The scolding came from her father, the crying came from Wei, and the scolding came from Mr. Gu.

Gu Tang pricked up her ears and listened for a while. She could tell that although her father was outnumbered two at a time, he was able to completely suppress the opponent.

As long as you don’t suffer any loss.

Gu Tang breathed a sigh of relief.

He pulled the package that was casually placed on the bamboo couch over and began to unpack it.

When it was only halfway demolished, there was a "bang" and the tightly closed door was suddenly pushed open, which scared Gu Tang.

Gu Tang glanced at the person coming and his face instantly darkened.

The person who pushed the door open was the original owner's elder sister Gu Mei, followed by her elder brother Gu Laian.

Gu Mei and Gu Laian are her father Gu Lianshan’s first wife, born to Zhu. The two siblings are one year apart in age, one is fifteen and the other is fourteen.

Gu Tang didn't like the brother and sister and was too lazy to deal with them. He just shouted at them to leave: "Get out!"

Gu Mei had become accustomed to Gu Tang's bad temper during this period of time. She took a deep breath and suppressed her anger to prevent herself from getting angry.

Gu Laian couldn't stand this.

The fourteen-year-old boy, at the age of saving face, started to quarrel with Gu Tang as soon as he opened his mouth: "You have a father but no mother to raise you! I am your brother! How dare you chase me away? I think you deserve to be punished...Ah!!!"

Before he could finish his curse, a broken adobe brick came rushing over and hit Gu Laian on the head, causing him to scream in pain.

Gu Mei was startled and subconsciously took a few steps away.

Gu Tang sneered, "I haven't come to settle the score with you for what happened last time! And you actually come to me on your own!

When dad comes back later, I will tell him about your theft and I will skin you alive!"

The screaming stopped abruptly.

Gu Laian's face turned pale, and he thought to himself, "Oh no! This damn girl actually saw that?"

"What do you mean?!" Gu Mei, who had come to her senses, also turned pale.

He questioned Gu Tang in a bad tone: "Why are you talking nonsense at such a young age? Who stole it? If you don't tell me clearly, I will never forgive you even if I die!"

Gu Tang's smile became more and more sarcastic: "You ask me? Look back at your brother's guilty look!"

Gu Mei's expression froze, and she immediately turned around and stared at Gu Laian.

Pian Gu Lai An avoided her gaze, lowered his head, and refused to look her in the eye.

Gu Mei knew what kind of person her younger brother was, so there was nothing she didn't understand.

Her brother really did steal something.

The key point is that that damn girl Gu Tang knew about this!

Gu Mei's eyes went dark.

Gu Tang took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire: "Bah! You have a father but no mother to raise you, yet you blame others! Look at the dirty hands and feet, isn't it just like the saying 'You have a father but no mother to raise you'!"

"You..." Gu Mei was so angry that her whole body was shaking. She glared at Gu Tang as if she wanted to eat her alive.

Gu Laian couldn't stand Gu Tang's sarcasm, and he didn't dare to face Gu Tang's thief-like gaze, so he simply covered his head and ran away!

"You're not going to chase her?" Gu Tang asked in a playful tone.

Gu Mei glared at her fiercely and chased after her reluctantly.

After the siblings left in anger, Gu Tang felt a little better. He took out the things in the package and put them all into the backpack that came with the sign-in system.

There are thieves everywhere in the Gu family. If there is any valuable stuff left outside, it will be gone soon.

Taking out the wooden basin from under the bamboo couch, Gu Tang planned to get some water to wash her hands, and then light some incense to worship the gods, hoping that good luck would visit her when she drew the lottery later.

She is not greedy, just a little bit is enough!

When I walked to the door, I heard a quarrel in the main room.

Gu Tang stuck his head out and took a look, only to see Feng sitting at the door of the main room, arguing with her father at the top of her voice.

If she went out now, she would definitely run into Feng's trap.

Gu Tang was a little hesitant. How about going out to get some water later?

He went back to the house and waited for a while, then stuck his head out to take a look again. Feng still hadn't left the door of the main room.

Gu Tang was so anxious. This was just delaying her good things!

Fortunately, not long after, Gu Ping'an, who had gone out to chop wood, came back.

Gu Tang had a look of joy on his face. He picked up a brick from the ground, scraped off a piece and threw it towards Gu Ping'an.

The piece of soil arrived exactly under Gu Ping'an's feet.

Gu Ping'an, who was about to put down the firewood, knew as soon as he saw the lump of soil that it was picked up from the adobe.

He knew without even thinking who threw this thing.

Gu Ping'an looked towards the west wing, and sure enough, he saw his sister jumping and waving at him, with a finger on her mouth, signaling him to be quiet.

Then he pointed at the main room where the noise was happening and at himself, implying that it was related to her?

Gu Ping'an glanced at Feng, and while she was facing away from the main hall door, he tiptoed to the west wing.

"What did you do today?" As soon as he entered the room, Gu Ping'an couldn't help asking out of curiosity.

"I'll tell you later. Go get me some water first. I need to wash my hands."

Gu Tang handed the wooden basin to Gu Ping'an and used it very skillfully.

During the past month, Gu Ping'an had been exploited and brainwashed by her.

This child is a sister-con and has obeyed the original owner's words since he was young.

After a month of her "training", Gu Ping'an now puts her first in everything.

After all, this is the "investment stock" she chose herself. If it doesn't obey and doesn't treat her well, her investment will be in vain!

After taking the wooden basin, Gu Ping'an obediently went to fetch water, and asked Gu Tang if he was in a hurry. If not, he would go to boil some water.

In weather like this, washing hands with cold water is very painful, especially for girls.

"No! Just cold water." Gu Tang waved at him.

Pointing to the main room, he added, "There's a quarrel going on in the main room right now. If you boil water, won't it attract the attention of your grandparents? They will definitely beat you up!"

Gu Ping'an paused, and immediately shuddered when he thought of his grandmother's angry face.

Go out and get some water immediately, don't even think about boiling water.

The Gu family kitchen is also in the west wing, just turn left when you go out the door.

Gu Ping'an moved lightly and cautiously, fetched some water and hurried back.

The children of the eldest wife were standing in the east wing corridor opposite, all looking at the main hall with anxious faces, fearing that Wei would suffer a loss.

Seeing Gu Ping'an's sneaky actions at this time, the children of the first wife all looked unhappy.

Wei's eldest daughter, Gu Qing, stared at Gu Ping'an and suddenly shouted, "Sanlang! What did you get from the kitchen? Why are you hiding it like this?"
