Chapter 7 Don't take it to heart

"You..." Wang didn't expect Gu Huayu to contradict him, and he was speechless for a moment.

"Closed it? Then go early after packing it. If you want to come back in the evening, I will ask Cheng Nan to pick you up.

If you don’t come back, then take a rest there for a night and come back tomorrow morning.” Fang and Gu Chengjuan carried the beans out and spoke when they saw Wang.

When Wang Xiu'e saw Fang come out, she changed her face instantly and said with a smile: "My grandma, my wife hasn't been back for a few days. She will rest there tonight and come back early tomorrow."

Fang sighed in his heart and nodded slightly without showing his face: "Go and say hello to my in-laws and the others on my behalf."

Gu Chengjuan curled his lips and frowned at Wang Xiu'e's back. Fang raised his hand and patted Gu Chengjuan on the shoulder, and said in a deep voice: "Go and get the dustpan."

Gu Chengjuan pouted and turned to get the dustpan.

Fang turned around and saw Gu Huayu looking at him and said, "Xiaoyu, your second sister-in-law has just returned home and she has been with everyone for a short time. She can't help but think more about herself. Don't bother with her."

Gu Huayu nodded with a smile and said frankly: "Thank you, my second uncle, Xiaoyu can save you. However, the third wife in this family really drags down everyone, and what the second sister-in-law is saying today is the truth."

"You can't say this little thing anymore. It's all a family. What kind of burden or not? If your grandfather knows, you should be punished." Fang said with a stern face and said reproaching.

"Xiaoyu, don't say that, don't feel guilty. Uncle San teaches in school and handes all the tuitions he receives every month to the public middle school.

Moreover, because of the third uncle, the third brother and the fourth brother didn’t have to give a tuition when they went to school to study. After all, the third uncle earned the most in this family.

My second sister-in-law is not sure about the situation, so she talks nonsense, don’t take it to heart.”

While saying that, Gu Chengjuan put the dustpan on two benches, turned around and scooped beans into the dustpan with a scoop.

Gu Huayu knew it, so it was like this. It seemed that the eldest uncle and the second uncle were both wise.

Fang glanced at her daughter, picked up the dustpan and started working hard. After a while, she poured the beans picked up by Chu into the basket beside Gu Chengjuan. She said, "Don't worry about talking, hurry up and pick up the sand in the beans."

Gu Huayu helped pick up beans for an afternoon and learned about the current prices.

After dinner, Gu Huayu went to the kitchen to find Wan: "My grandma, I want to go to the market with my second uncle tomorrow."

Wan disagreed at first, but Gu Huayu acted coquettishly and cutely. Wan finally nodded in agreement.

Gu Huayu came out of the kitchen and was pulled by Gu Chengjuan to speak.

After a while, Fang said in the room: "Where did you two say so much? It's getting late, Cheng Juan quickly took a shower and took a break. There's still a lot of things to do tomorrow."

Gu Chengjuan stuck out her tongue and lowered her voice, "Xiaoyu, let's talk tomorrow. There are many wild fruits on the edge of the big soil in Maopoling. I will pick some for you tomorrow. It's sour and sweet, so delicious."

Gu Huayu looked at the playful Gu Chengjuan, and the warm pictures in her memory reappeared one by one.

In those years, when Gu Chengjuan came back from the field, she always turned into magic and turned red and yellow wild fruits out of the pig grass on her back, and held them in front of her when she offered her treasures...

Gu Huayu's eyes were a little sore, afraid that Gu Chengjuan would look at him, so he nodded with a smile, "Thank you, second sister, go and rest earlier, let's talk tomorrow."

After leaving Gu Chengjuan, Gu Huayu headed to the west wing.

In the Gu family's yard, the main house is a tiled house with five-story and four-story brick and wood structure, and on the east and west sides are a hut with four-story and three-story earthen walls.

There is a side room next to the west wing, which is used to stack agricultural furniture and furniture. A kitchen is built next to the east wing, and a pig and cow pen is built not far from the kitchen.

The main house is home to grandfather, uncle and second uncle.

The west wing house is home to three bedrooms and Gu Chengdong.

The east wing room is the residence and dining hall of Gu Chengnan and his wife.

Gu Huayu returned to the west wing and saw her father checking her brother's homework.

When Gu Dechang saw Gu Huayu coming in, he put down the book in his hand and waved to Gu Huayu, "Xiaoyu comes and sits."

Gu Huayu smiled and walked to Gu Dechang and sat down.

"I heard that my sister helped my second uncle pick up beans for the afternoon. Are you tired? My sister hasn't done it yet. It's time to rest. You don't have to do these things." Gu Chengliang stood by the desk, pouring tea for Gu Huayu with a cup.

Gu Dechang nodded in agreement, "Cheng Liang said yes, Xiaoyu, you are weak, just rest well, don't take Wang's words to heart."

Gu Dechang knew Gu Huayu was very sensitive and only thought that she listened to Wang's words and did things with illness.

Gu Huayu took the teacup handed over by Gu Chengliang, and felt quite emotional. No wonder she was like a useless person in her previous life. She was spoiled by so many people on her head, so it would be strange if she didn't do anything.

Gu Huayu replied with a smile: "Thank you, my father, thank you brother, Xiaoyu is not tired. Don't worry, Xiaoyu has not taken the words of his second sister-in-law to heart. Moreover, being able to do something within his ability is a good thing for Xiaoyu."

Gu Dechang's eyes became two deeper, and he raised his hand to touch Gu Huayu's head and said, "Our Xiaoyu has grown up and is sensible."

Gu Dechang's doting touch made Gu Huayu cry again.

In my memory, my father loved her very much. In that robbery, my father protected her behind her. She watched her fall in the pool of blood with her own eyes...

"What's wrong with Xiaoyu?" Gu Dechang asked in panic when he saw Gu Huayu crying.

"Xiaoyu has a headache again?" Gu Chengliang asked worriedly.

Gu Huayu shook her head, "No headache."

"Why are you crying?" Gu Chengliang asked.

Gu Dechang raised his hand to wipe Gu Huayu's tears, waiting for her answer.

Gu Huayu looked at her father and brother, but she didn't know how to answer.

"I still said I didn't take my second sister-in-law to heart? Xiaoyu, don't be as knowledgeable as my second sister-in-law." Gu Chengliang just thought that his sister was wronged and was busy enlightening her.

Gu Huayu hurriedly explained: "I..."

Gu Chengliang patted her shoulder and comforted her: "Xiaoyu, my second brother treats us well. Let's not bother with my second sister-in-law. If my second sister-in-law says, go in with her left ear and right ear, don't go to her heart. Don't be sad, okay?"

Gu Huayu was a little amused, but he nodded with kindness, "Okay."

Gu Dechang looked at Gu Huayu and said softly: "If Xiaoyu is bored at home, what if she will go to school with her dad tomorrow?"

"Yes, my sister can go to school with us, so as not to look at people's faces at home. Moreover, my sister is smart and has read more books. My sister can help my father teach us." Gu Chengliang was extremely excited when his father asked Gu Huayu to go to school.

Gu Huayu wants to make a fortune, but he doesn't want to go to school.

"Thank you, Dad, Xiao Yu wants to go to the market with his second uncle tomorrow."

Gu Dechang was stunned, "Xiaoyu wants to go to the market?"
