Chapter 165 Urgently in need of money
After finishing their meal, Gu Jiaojiao and Su Shuoci took Geng Haozhi and the others to load up rice, as they were in urgent need of money.
Geng Haozhi talked to his father for several hours and felt more urgent to make money.
Because there were a few more people, it was inconvenient for Gu Jiaojiao to drive, so everyone walked together.
While chatting along the way, Geng Haozhi told Su Shuoci and his wife about his family's past.
His father's body was severely injured and he needed nutrition. According to his father, Su Ge's family had ginseng stewed chicken soup every day.
Ginseng is very expensive these days and hard to buy. His father's health still needs a few years of care.
He was eleven years old when he left his father, and all his memories are very clear.
His father was a very principled man and was very strict with him and his sister. They never dared to act unruly in front of his father.
That was also the reason why his sister chose to follow his mother without hesitation, and encouraged him to follow their mother.
But he was so young, how could he know that his mother would remarry so soon!
Seeing his father again, Geng Haozhi had never seen such a kind father before. It might be because he was old, or it might be because of the pressure of life...
His mother's name was Wang Shuping. She was just the daughter of the Wang family, a small aristocratic family in the imperial capital. The defeated Wang family had always flattered the powerful and bullied the weak.
Before his grandfather and father got into trouble, the Wang family kept asking for money from them.
When the Geng family is in trouble, the Wang family is the first to jump out and step on them. Adding insult to injury is child's play.
The key point is that all the Wang family members stabbed him in the back and each of them jumped out to accuse his father.
His father was already in a state of misery, but his closest family members, Yue’s family, now pointed the finger at him.
This is not a big deal. What’s even more outrageous is that the person next to him actually wants to join in the fun.
His mother and his sister desperately accused his father of many crimes, making things even worse for his unfortunate father.
His mother and his sister usually seem to be honest women, and they are usually nice to everyone.
However, once their own interests are involved, they immediately change their expressions without considering the consequences at all.
Whatever an honest person says is convincing. There are really too many people in this world who can't keep their mouths shut.
And at that time, no one can care whether those people's mouths are clean or not.
No one cares about who is right or wrong. Most people can only accept it silently and accept their tragic fate.
Gu Jiaojiao sighed and said: "A vain woman will be spoiled when you can give her wealth and glory.
She loves you, even if you are not good in every way, you are good in her eyes.
Once you are in trouble, she will no longer love you, and no matter how much you say, it will be useless. In her eyes, you are nothing."
Geng Haozhi: …
What his sister-in-law said made sense, but they were his mother and sister, so he didn't know what to say and could only continue.
His father also felt that he had made the right choice if he had gone to the farm with him.
Whether he could survive was still an unknown. Now, looking at his handsome son, his heart was filled with joy.
Geng Haozhi recalled the resolute backs of his mother and sister, and how helpless he felt following behind them.
Looking at his elderly father, his gentle eyes gradually showed a trace of regret and pain...
I never thought that my father now looks so haggard.
Geng Haozhi's heart was bleeding, but he could only pretend that he knew nothing.
He had never resented his mother and sister before, but only felt guilty towards his father.
I heard his father say that everything should have been fine in the past few years, but his father was being suppressed by someone.
Geng Haozhi felt somewhat dissatisfied with his mother and the Wang family. It turned out that they all knew where his father was, but he didn't.
At that time, he was extremely angry, but Geng's father looked up at Geng Haozhi and said, "Xiaozhi, you have grown up. It was your mother who raised you."
Geng Haozhi also understood the hidden meaning in Geng's father's words.
"Dad, don't worry. I was too selfish before, which made you so sad! Don't worry, I will definitely make it up to you when I come back this time. Just wait and enjoy your life."
When his father heard what he said, he was as happy as a child. Geng Haozhi looked at his father with a bit of fatigue in his eyes, and his heart was broken.
"Haozhi is here, don't think too much, let the past be the past, the future is still long."
Su Shuoci saw his friend's face was distorted and he knew that he was sad.
"Wow! Our famous King Su actually knows how to comfort people? Do your former subordinates know about this?"
Geng Haozhi's depressed mood was instantly cured, and he teased Su Shuoci with a smile.
"He is not only good at comforting people, but also much gentler. Don't you see that?"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"I really didn't notice it, but I just felt that it wasn't as cold as before."
Geng Haozhi looked at his friend carefully again and shook his head.
Su Shuoci did not comment. He was a little gentler towards others, but his gentleness was only for his wife. No one else could even think about it.
"Wow, so much rice, Brother Su, you are really great." Geng Haozhi looked nonchalant at first.
When he saw the rice in the living room, his eyes lit up. How much would it sell for? So he immediately ordered Fu Junyuan and Li Yanrong to load the rice. The truck was so big that it couldn't be loaded with all the rice.
After selling everything, he had to make another trip. After he found his father, he immediately called his grandfather.
His grandfather couldn't wait to come to Qingcheng to see his father, and said he would leave today, and it would take a day and a night by train.
After loading the car, they immediately returned to the capital to sell the rice. Another reason was that he couldn't bear to see his grandfather crying.
When he comes to Qingcheng again, his grandfather should have recovered! His father has suffered too much and been hurt a lot, and most of the hurt came from his mother and the Wang family.
In fact, his stepfather did not want to suppress his father. He was able to provide a good life for his mother and sister.
He was not afraid that they would leave because his sister was married to a young master from a noble family in the imperial capital.
Geng Haozhi knew that they secretly joined forces to suppress his father because they didn't want him to stand up.
From his conversation with his father, Geng Haozhi learned that he did not hate them at all.
He is from his grandfather's family, and he is just guilty as a thief, alas!
In Qingcheng First Hospital, the old man of the Xi family woke up, expressed his regrets, and then fell asleep peacefully.
"Doctor He, please come and take a look. Why did my father faint again?" asked the head of the Xi family anxiously.
Doctor He was frightened by his shout and immediately ran over to check the patient's pulse: "Mr. Xi just fell asleep, nothing serious. Professor Xia, did Doctor Su Gu give Mr. Xi some medicine?"
"Yes, he was given medicine before the operation. Doctor Su Gu said that Mr. Xi was conscious at the time."
"Her medicine is really not simple. I wonder when I can make such a powerful pill."
Doctor He said this with envy, and this made him want to learn how to make pills from Gu Jiaojiao even more.
Although the senior official Xi did not understand medicine, he understood what Doctor He and Professor Xia meant. Neither of them was as good as the young girl.
