Chapter 74: A Serpentine Heart
Gu Tang shook his head: "I'm just a little tired, how can I call a doctor? I just need to rest for a while, it's nothing serious."
Gu Ping'an was still worried: "Where did you get the medicine that Second Sister took? I'll go get a few packets and take some medicine to ease the pain."
"That medicine is for nourishing the body, not for curing diseases. If you want it to be effective, you have to take it every day. Taking a pack all at once is like drinking water, it won't have much effect."
Gu Tang waved his hand at him, signaling him not to worry about himself, and pointed to the empty seat next to him: "Move another stool over, sit next to me, I have something to ask you."
"Hey!" Gu Ping'an responded, moved a stool over, and sat down obediently next to Gu Tang.
"I told my father before that he should learn to do business. Now he is thinking about it wholeheartedly and is very happy. What about you? What do you want to do in the future?"
Gu Ping'an looked confused. What was he going to do next?
He had never thought about this before. "How about I help Dad and help him with his business in the future?"
At this point, he suddenly lowered his voice and whispered something in Gu Tang's ear: "We still have our elder brother and elder sister ahead of us. This business is yours, second sister. If I don't stay behind dad and keep an eye on it, what if dad brings my elder brother over?"
Gu Tang glanced at him and thought, hmm, he knew how to protect the food, but his mind was not put in the right place.
He pointed his finger at him helplessly, "Dad looks down on people who act like that, brother. Not to mention taking you to do business, I won't even let him get involved!
You also know Dad's temper. If he likes someone, then that's all good. But if he hates that person, in his heart, that person will never be able to turn things around in his life! ”
There is a saying that is particularly suitable for her father: Love him and want him to live; hate him and want him to die.
If you treat people based on your personal likes and dislikes, once he thinks you are not a good person, then in his mind, you will never be able to turn around and become a good person, and you will be a bad person all your life.
Therefore, in Gu Tang's opinion, Gu Laian is not a problem at all!
"Besides my eldest brother, there is also my eldest sister! Anyway, I have to keep an eye on them!" Gu Ping'an felt that he had to be on guard against both of them.
"Big sister?" Gu Tang rolled his eyes. "Big brother can't even get involved, so she can forget about it!"
"Why?"
"Think carefully, from childhood to adulthood, whenever the eldest brother made trouble, Dad would punish him, and most of the time, the eldest sister as well, right?"
Punish together?
Gu Ping'an seemed to be thinking about something, and after thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be true.
"In the past few years, it was just as you said. When Dad punished my eldest brother, at least five out of ten times he punished my eldest sister together. I asked Dad about it before, but he ignored me and just told me to stay away from my eldest sister."
Gu Tang pulled the corner of his mouth and said, "My eldest brother is just an idiot. He never thinks before he does anything or speaks. He grew up with my eldest sister. My eldest sister coaxed him and said that Dad and us are treacherous and are always trying to harm them.
Since he was young, she had coaxed her elder brother into doing whatever she wanted. Whenever she wanted to do something, she would coax her elder brother to take the lead, while she would hide behind and reap the benefits! ”
Her father Gu Lianshan saw this clearly and was so angry that in the past few years he punished Gu Mei as well, not giving her any face at all.
But in the last one or two years, the fines have been less frequent. One reason is that girls have grown up and their reputation is more valuable.
Second, her father has completely given up on Gu Mei and only wants to marry her off next year and pretend he doesn't have a daughter in the future.
If Gu Tang hadn't mentioned this, Gu Ping'an would never have thought about it in this regard.
Now after hearing this, he dug up those things in his memory, thinking about them one by one, and finally realized how bad Gu Mei was.
"Eldest sister..."
Gu Pingan frowned, not knowing how to comment. "Although elder sister and elder brother lost their mother, we have never bullied them! Even a cruel person like mother has never bullied them. Why would elder sister think this way?"
"Some people are born bad, and that has nothing to do with others. As long as she thinks we are bad, then we must be bad, and no one can change her point of view."
Gu Tang felt that Gu Mei must be suffering from paranoid delusions! Everyone she sees wants to harm her.
This is a disease and needs to be treated!
Gu Ping'an looked grim and was in a very bad mood.
Gu Tang glared at him: "What's the big deal? Is it worth getting angry? Second sister tells you these things to let you know that our family's business has nothing to do with big brother and big sister.
Don't always think that you have to be on guard against your older brothers and sisters and follow behind dad to help him. Now I want you to think carefully about what you want to do most? ”
What do you want to do most?
Gu Ping'an lowered his eyes and said nothing, his fingers constantly rolling the corner of his clothes.
Gu Tang glanced at his little action, and immediately understood, and told him bluntly: "Don't think about anything, don't worry about anything, put these aside, second sister asks you, what do you want to do most?"
Gu Ping'an raised his head, and the image of Gu Tianbao walking home with a book in his hand flashed through his mind.
"Second sister, I want to study!"
Gu Tang looked at him steadily without saying a word.
Gu Ping'an looked apprehensive, but he didn't back down. He said what he was thinking: "Gu Tianbao was reading an article at home. His uncle read it three times. I hid under the east wing window and listened to it three times. I could recite most of it! But Gu Tianbao read it from the book, and he read it haltingly!
I was not convinced at that time! It’s obvious that I’m much smarter than Gu Tianbao! I'm obviously more talented than him! Why didn’t my grandparents ever let me go to school? ! ”
At this point, Gu Pingan remembered something, his face turned pale, and his eyes were red: "I, I went to find grandma without telling my father, and I recited the article in front of her! I recited all the articles that my uncle had read, but grandma scolded me for being restless!
She said that what I recited was all made up, and she was trying to trick her into paying me money to let me study. In the end, she even chased me out of the living room with a broom..."
Gu Tang was furious: "When did this happen? Why haven't I heard you mention it before?"
"This, this happened three years ago... Grandma wouldn't let me tell anyone about this. She said if I dared to tell anyone, she would kick my family out!"
Gu Ping'an looked at Gu Tang timidly and uncomfortably, obviously knowing that it was wrong to hide this matter.
But at that time he was really scared by his grandmother.
He was afraid that because of him, his family would be driven out and become refugees.
After all, no matter how bad the Gu family's life was, at least they could eat half full and have a house to live in.
Gu Tang was so angry that he wanted to scold him, but when he saw the cowardice on his young face, he suddenly remembered.
This kid, who is treated like an adult by the Gu family and chop wood in the mountains all day long, is only eleven years old this year!
How old was he three years ago? Only eight or nine years old!
An eight or nine-year-old child, who was frightened, was already suffering from the panic alone, and no one in his family noticed his uneasiness.
And it lasted for three whole years!
If you really want to scold someone, you should scold her father and her mother!
And there is Feng!
Disrespectful to the elderly and cruel!
I have something to do today, so there is only one update. Sorry, my dears!
