Su Xiaomu looked around for Gu Jingcheng before finding him in the vegetable patch in the backyard.

But by the time he was eating, he had already put on another set of clothes and was serving the crops in the field skillfully.

Although he still has a bookish air about him now, if he goes out to meet people like this, I'm afraid not many people will be willing to believe that he is a student studying in the academy.

After all, he is not a person who only sucks the blood of his family. After all, he is willing to share farm work with his family after he comes back.

Seeing this, Su Xiaomu's tone softened slightly: "I think the two of us need to have a good talk. Otherwise, if you always treat me like this, how difficult would it be for my mother?"

Gu Jingcheng paused while holding the hoe. He raised his eyelids and looked at her: "What are you talking about?"

"We need to find a place to talk first, preferably somewhere with few people."

"What else are you looking for?"

Gu Jingcheng frowned and refused.

"Ha, I don't know what I'm looking for, but you're not afraid, are you?

You are afraid that I will trick you into going to the mountains, and then give you a severe punishment, and let you know that it is wrong to speculate on other people's thoughts."

Gu Jingcheng chuckled, "You don't dare."

Taking Gu Jingcheng with them, the two of them went to the back mountain.

Su Xiaomu had memorized the road very well in digging wild vegetables in the past few days. She knew which area no one had ever gone to, so she led Gu Jingcheng to stop halfway up the mountain.

"Okay, let's talk here."

She was a little tired from climbing, so she held her waist and took a few breaths.

"Why do you have such a big problem with me?

Just because I ran into you on the street doing business?

But after all, I went out to show my face to save money for you to study."

Although she secretly received a kickback, she came up with the idea after all, so it’s not too much to pay for her hard work, right?

"Ignore the matter of you selling things for now, but you are clearly different outside and at home on weekdays, and you are so keen on making money. Do you want to study hard for me, or do you want to save more for yourself?

money?"

Gu Jingcheng knew how much Zhou Lin spent on buying cakes at Su Xiaomu.

When I came back this time, I could see that great changes had taken place in my home.

He is not a piece of wood, nor does he only know how to read.

Everyone's life is getting better and there are more smiles on their faces. He knows in his heart what brings about these.

But precisely because of this, the look in his eyes when he looked at Su Xiaomu became more and more complicated.

"You stay at home because you love me."

"Of course not."

"My mother bought me with money. To put it nicely, I am your child bride, your third wife who takes care of your family.

But to put it harshly, my father sold me to someone else for only two taels of silver."

She blinked her eyes, "I just want to live a better life. It doesn't matter if you don't like me or I don't like you. It's even okay if you hate me.

All I want is for my life to become more stable and not to be sold around."

Anyway, it was not her sincere thoughts. Su Xiaomu said the lies with red lips and white teeth without blinking: "My parents care about you very much. My brothers and sisters-in-law all hope that you can study hard and become successful as soon as possible.

So there is really no need to talk to me. Instead of worrying everyone, how about we coexist peacefully?"

Defeat doubts with sincerity, sincerity is always the surefire way!

If it weren't for the fact that the characters of the era were inappropriate, Su Xiaomu even wanted to list the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence for him.

Gu Jingcheng fell into silence for a short time after listening to Su Xiaomu's words.

What he thought was an ulterior motive was just a means for her to survive?

After a while, he continued: "I will talk to you properly in front of my parents from now on."

"Since you and I are not sincere, it will be much easier to get along with each other. From now on, you will be your Gu family wife. If there is a chance in the future, I will tell my mother that we are all fake and let her give you your freedom."

."

"Thank you very much."

Su Xiaomu felt very comfortable after getting the answer he wanted.

She saw that there were fruits growing on the bushes on her left, and couldn't help but reach out to pick them. Then she said as if she had something to say: "Actually, you asked me just now if I admire you, and I don't know what admiration means."

"As your wife, I don't know anything else. I just know that if you don't like me and treat me badly, then I will be as helpless as Piaoping, and no one in this family is willing to pay attention to me.

You may think I'm funny, but more or less, I hope to gain your approval."

Like Gu Jingcheng?

Why should you like him?

Without lotus leaves to support the lotus, will it be as helpless as Piao Ping?

She doesn't think at all that as a woman, she must have a man.

Instead of talking about love and love, it is better to make money.

As long as she has money, what will she have in the future?

The funniest thing in the world is to dedicate your entire life to others and light up others.

Even if she is still a businessman with little capital, Su Xiaomu will never take the initiative to engage in loss-making business.

"What you said does make some sense."

"Women in this world are indeed much more difficult than men. Everyone has their own difficulties. Just like you, if you come to our house to live alone, you will definitely not be as comfortable as you in your own home."

Gu Jingcheng looked at her with a puzzled look on her face. Her eyes were big and bright on her fair and round face. At this moment, she opened her lips slightly, looking delicate and a little naive.

"Let me pick the fruit for you."

Gu Jingcheng put down the basket he was carrying and took the fruits Su Xiaomu picked from her hands.

"Then...then thank you."

She followed him blankly to pick fruits, looking at Gu Jingcheng's tall and straight figure, she fell into deep thought.

It turns out that ancient people and ancient men also knew that compared to them, it was very difficult for women to survive.

She suddenly understood why Zhou Lin, a young man from a rich family, was willing to be friends with Gu Jingcheng, and why he came from a poor family but could go from studying in the village to the city step by step.

Although he has outstanding talents, if he is not pure-minded...

Forget it, my thoughts came back, it was none of her business whether he was good or bad!

Just let her live her own life.

After filling the baskets Gu Jingcheng was carrying, the two of them went down the mountain together.

Mrs. Li had been waiting for the two of them at the foot of the mountain early. She didn't see Su Xiaomu after eating. She originally wanted to go and have a chat with Gu Jingcheng.

After all, it is rare for a daughter-in-law to be sensible, and she cannot treat her badly after spending money.
