Chapter 38 038. Fight(1/2)
After they left, Gu Xiaoxiao turned around and looked at Pan'er and Zhaodi, signaled them to get up, and asked Pan'er again: "Where is the Xiao Dong family?"
"The boss took a look before. As soon as they left, they came in to make trouble!" Pan'er said softly. He was very grateful to Mrs. Gu for helping her, as if she had encountered her.
Her parents had forced her to get married, but she would rather die than surrender. She walked back and forth in the gate of hell for several times. The family she was looking for was reasonable. Seeing that she was unwilling, she gave up the marriage. For this reason, her parents beat her day and night because she had lost the betrothal gift money.
She promised to return the same amount of money as the betrothal gift, and then she came out to find a job!
So she didn't want Zhaodi to follow her old path, and she just stopped her desperately.
When Gu Xiaoxiao heard Pan'er's words, she rolled her eyes in her heart. The Xiao Dong family is really lucky. She can't find him any troubles, and she even let herself catch up. She can't ignore it yet! What's the matter!
Then he said coldly to everyone who was still watching the fun: "Have you seen enough yet?! You all do your own work!"
Everyone didn't dare to delay and disperse to do their own things.
Xiaotao also listened to the sidelines and understood the secrets of the matter. She felt very guilty about the bystander just now. She stepped forward to hold Zhaodi's hand and said with a blaming look on her face: "Zhaodi, I'm very sorry. I didn't stop Pan'er just now. I didn't expect that as a parent, how could he be like this?!"
Daqiang was also on the side. As a man, he had only brute force but did not take action to stop him. At this time, he was even more embarrassed to speak and could only stand in place.
Zhaodi looked at Xiao Tao who had never experienced these storms and rain, and was envious in her eyes. She smiled and comforted her: "It's okay, I don't blame you. This matter would have been unexpected if others had expected it!"
I also saw Daqiang's emotions and smiled at him as a comfort.
She didn't blame him either. There was a difference between men and women. As a man, he might be too gossiped for her, a woman, and she could understand that he could stand up for her.
She turned her head to look at Pan'er again, "Thank you Pan'er!"
Pan'er also smiled and didn't say much.
Then Zhaodi stepped forward and looked at Madam Gu, knelt down again, and said in a deep voice: "Thank you for your help, Madam Lao has spent money, I will definitely pay you back in the future!"
"This doesn't matter. You should think about the marriage your parents have made for you!" Gu Xiaoxiao said lightly.
Zhaodi lowered her eyes, "I will definitely not marry! If they force me again, I can only show my ambitions by dying!"
The unyielding spirit in her eyes became more and more prosperous.
Gu Xiaoxiao curled her lips and said, "Why do you have to die? I have a way, it depends on whether you agree or not!"
Zhao Di's eyes lit up, and she looked up at Madam Gu thankfully, "What are you doing? I must be willing!"
"My next words may not sound very nice, but it is indeed the most practical problem." Gu Xiaoxiao paused, looked at Zhaodi carefully and continued: "You have two ways to go. One is to follow your parents, either get married or hang yourself. No matter what, it will definitely harm you."
Zhaodi's eyes darkened, and she could also expect that her ending would not be good whether she went to Yin Laoer's house or at her own house!
Gu Xiaoxiao looked at her and said leisurely: "Those two things are you leaving that family and you have no mother tribe to rely on from now on, but they will never come to provoke you again. Think about it carefully!"
Zhaodi's eyes paused and she felt a little confused.
She knew that Mrs. Gu was telling the truth. In this society, if you don’t have parents, you will be alone and even be poked at the back of others to be called unfilial.
But for her original family that she could not rely on, breaking away from them is the best way to protect herself at present!
She was extremely heartbroken with that pair of parents, so she didn't feel reluctant to let her go, but she was a little worried that they wouldn't let her go so easily!
With her here, she can provide income for the family and contract housework for them at home. They never take any care of her. Even if she gets married, they don’t care even more about whether she dies or lives after getting married.
How could such a good thing be letting her go easily!
Here the emperor pays attention to filial piety, and the system of "governing the country with benevolence and filial piety" is prevalent. Only parents can cut off relations with their children, and children are not qualified to raise them. "Disobedience" here is a serious crime, with the highest sentence of death, and the worst is exile.
Although their small place is far away from the imperial city and the system is not so strict, it is also very serious.
The more I think this way, Zhaodi's expression became more lonely, and she was full of despair, as if she had no hope for her future life.
She...can't escape!
Gu Xiaoxiao looked at her and understood her concerns. She leaned over and approached her slightly, and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "If you decide, I can help you!"
Zhaodi looked up at her, and saw the corners of her mouth curled up, and a trembling smile burst out in her eyes, like a devil from hell.
But in Zhaodi's eyes, this is the only fairy who can save her. When the lady said she could help her, she would definitely believe in her ability!
There is no other way, and she has no one to count on.
Since that's the case, she will fight for herself!
Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, at worst, she will die in the end. She has nothing to worry about. They are going to force her to death! If it really doesn't work, then she will die with them!
Anyway, she has been like duckweed since she was born, and the family has never given her a little warmth! She has had enough of it!
This life that is worse than pigs and dogs for more than ten years can be regarded as repaying the life they gave her!
From now on, she will live for herself whether she is alive or dead!
She looked at Madam Gu with red eyes, but she tried hard to be strong, and her voice trembled and said, "Well! I have decided! Thank you Madam Gu!"
Gu Xiaoxiao straightened up and looked at her with a soft smile, knowing that she was planning to take the second path!
She felt relieved and liked this girl who was unwilling to admit defeat!
Gu Xiaoxiao has a doomsday thinking and does not have so many feudal rules. She believes that parents are kind to their children and are filial. If she just follows filial piety and swallows up those who are not qualified to be parents at all, this is what she hates.
If this is true, then they deserve all the suffering and sins they have suffered!
Fortunately, Zhaodi did not disappoint her!
She helped Zhaodi up, asked her to go to the backyard with her, and entered a wing room.
And Xiaotao, Pan'er and Daqiang have already done their own work.
In the wing room, the two of them sat and stood there. Zhaodi was a little confused about why Mrs. Gu brought her here?
But he didn't dare to ask, just stood there blankly.
Gu Xiaoxiao sat at the table, poured himself a cup of tea, tasted it gently before slowly speaking: "Have you really thought about it?"
Upon hearing this, Zhaodi nodded firmly.
Gu Xiaoxiao curled her mouth, raised her chin, and tapped the chair opposite her from the air, "Sit down!"
"No, I'll just stand!"
Although she knew that Madam Gu was a good man and didn't care about these rules and clichés, she had to abide by the rules, and there were still other things in her superiors and inferiors!
Seeing that she insisted, Gu Xiaoxiao didn't say anything, so she started talking about the serious matter, "What are you going to do about this?"
Zhao Di was slightly stunned, then lowered her eyes and shook her head. She had that heart, but she had no choice!
Gu Xiaoxiao also expected that, and slowly took a sip of tea and said, "Don't worry about this matter. They can come in three days. You just need to cooperate with me and go to the government to terminate the relationship with them."
Zhaodi was a little worried and frowned and said, "But Madam, they... may not compromise so easily!"
The wife was willing to help her, but she was very grateful, but she couldn't implicate Mrs. Gu because of this!
Gu Xiaoxiao smiled softly and said indifferently: "Don't worry, they will agree!"
Her eyes were full of meaning.
Zhaodi couldn't understand what Madam Gu kept from selling, but since Madam said that, she could only choose to believe it, but she was still a little worried.
Gu Xiaoxiao looked at Zhaodi's frowning look, smiled secretly, and didn't explain much, and was carefully savoring the good tea in her hand. Anyway... she would know then!
It was getting late, so she was about to go home.
As soon as I left the sweet taste zhai, Xiao Mu hurried over. When he saw Madam Gu here, he was obviously relieved.
Gu Xiaoxiao stood at the door waiting for him to come. After Xiao Mu approached, he still looked into the store with concern. Seeing that there was no problem, he withdrew his gaze and smiled at Gu Xiaoxiao and said, "Madam Gu, why are you here? Nothing happened in the store, right?"
Gu Xiaoxiao looked at him with a look of "You asked knowingly" and said, "It's okay, it's all solved. It's really time for you to come!" She deliberately aggravated and said the opposite.
Xiao Mu looked embarrassed and said after a moment, "Oh, I'm not here to leave. Please trouble Mrs. Gu!" He continued, "I'm going to do what you told me. I asked me to find the store. I replied to me before and said I found it. I went to check it out. It was indeed not bad, the place was good, and it was close to here. I was talking to their sellers about the price, but I heard that someone was causing trouble in Tianweizhai, so I rushed over!"
He looked at Gu Xiaoxiao's face and smiled, "Thanks to you here! Otherwise, it would be too late for me to come!"
Gu Xiaoxiao gave him a blank look, but he didn't expect that he would entrust him to find the store today, but now he found it!
Sure enough, my identity and status are here, and everything I do is more convenient than her.
She looked up at the sky, and there was still time, so she said to Xiao Mu again: "Let's go, take me to see!"
Xiao Mu knew that she was referring to the store, so he agreed without hesitation.
Then he took Gu Xiaoxiao to his newly found store.
Gu Xiaoxiao looked at the very clean place in front of her and was quite satisfied.
This is indeed as Xiao Mu said, it is very close to Shiweixuan and Tianweizhai, and the location is also very good, and it is suitable for opening a medicine shop.
I heard from Xiao Mu that this place was originally a pharmacy shop. Later, the shopkeeper of the pharmacy shop moved his family to Zhoucheng, and he did not plan to come back, so the store here was sold out.
Gu Xiaoxiao followed Xiao Mu into the store and looked around. The place was spacious enough, and there were even some utensils from the previous medicine shop, such as milling troughs, medicine sieves, etc.
She looked at those things, and they were still intact and could be considered as saving her money.
There is also a large backyard behind, with several small rooms that can be used for seriously injured patients or for employees in the store to live in.
Gu Xiaoxiao was particularly satisfied with the store Xiao Mu found, but she didn’t know the price, so it shouldn’t be missing!
Xiao Mu called the seller he had communicated with before. He was asked by the shopkeeper of the previous pharmacy shop to sell it on his behalf. When he heard that he was going to buy a pharmacy shop, he felt relieved and sold it at a low price.
Although the old shopkeeper of the pharmacy shop had taken out the store, he was still reluctant to leave and hoped that someone would buy the store and continue to open a pharmacy shop, otherwise he would not have left those utensils.
He just wants his original intention of curing diseases and saving lives to continue here.
To be continued...
