When Mr. Gu saw the person, he panicked instantly. He originally wanted to take his hand back, but in his panic, he accidentally pulled out another hair of Tianbao.
Mr. Gu was stunned. He looked down at the hair in his hand, and then at the extremely angry Mrs. Gu.
This, this, this.
He was quibbling. Oh no, can he explain?
"Listen to me."
"Say it, and I'll listen."
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Gu suppressed her anger and planned to listen to Mr. Gu's sophistry, but it was not up to him whether she could listen or not.
You said I listen? When you hear this, how dare he say it with anger?
"This, that's her."
Mr. Gu groaned for a long time, then uttered a few words that didn't match the preface and the follower, which made the listeners irritated.
"Okay, stop talking, I already know it." Mrs. Gu didn't want to reprimand Mr. Gu in front of Tianbao, so she said, "Tianbao, let your sister-in-law comb your hair again and go to dinner later."
"Mother . Don't you want to eat?" Tian Bao, who still had tears in his eyes, asked in a whisper.
Mrs. Gu's blood rushed to her mind. Look at her obedient and sensible daughter.
She suppressed her anger and quickly coaxed her daughter out. If she didn't go out, she would really be unable to suppress her anger.
Mrs. Gu was very powerful when she was young, but after getting married to Mr. Gu, she restrained herself a lot and only focused on raising her husband and raising her children.
After being quiet for many years, I am afraid someone has forgotten the scene of being beaten by her.
Tianbao obediently followed his sister-in-law out of the door. He had just taken two steps when he heard the door close and a howl coming from behind.
The aunt and sister-in-law looked at each other and returned to the house as if nothing had happened. Qin Xue combed Tianbao's hair neatly, with two little hairpins on her head, looking very playful.
The aunt and sister-in-law returned to the dining table. The rest of the Gu family heard the sound and wanted to go to the study, but were stopped by Tianbao.
"Mom said that we need to have a good talk with dad." Mom just said that she wanted to have a good talk with dad, and that's why she pushed her out.
When the Gu family heard this, they ignored the howling coming from the study and continued to eat as if nothing had happened.
It wasn't until the Gu family had finished eating that Mrs. Gu opened the door with a slight gasp, and put down her rolled-up sleeves as she went out.
When Tianbao saw her mother coming out, she quickly ran up and took her to the dining table, holding her hand.
"Mom, I left some food for you, eat it quickly!"
As he said this, he went to bring tea and water, but Mrs. Gu scooped it up.
Old Mrs. Gu brushed away the broken hair from Tianbao's forehead and looked at Tianbao who still had red eyes, but she felt relieved.
"Good girl, sit here and eat with your mother."
"Okay!"
On the other side, the limping Mr. Gu walked out holding on to the wall. No one in the Gu family standing outside was willing to help, just because They all knew that even though their father knew that he was not good at his craftsmanship, he still went to help his little sister comb her hair, which made her cry in pain.
Mr. Gu was feeling miserable. He had nothing to say, and he was very sad.
Mr. Gu looked up to the sky and sighed, turned around and walked out the door.
The eldest daughter-in-law Qin Xue couldn't bear it. Remembering her sister-in-law's words, she ignored her man's gaze and quietly walked to her father-in-law and whispered.
"Dad, there is some food left for you by my sister-in-law in the kitchen. It's still warm in the pot. Go and eat it." "My sister-in-law said that if you don't eat, she won't forgive you." Mr.
Gu originally planned to starve himself as a self-punishment, but when he heard that his daughter was still thinking about him, he felt guilty, especially when he remembered that his daughter had just said that Walking out with a head like a chicken coop, I suddenly felt even more guilty.
But Tianbao can guess his father's heart, and threatening him is more effective than anything else.
Mr. Gu felt a little uncomfortable after eating the meal, but with the Lingquan water specially prepared by Tianbao, even the pain subsided a lot.
But old man Gu didn't know that the ridiculous things that happened this morning had been written into an urgent letter and sent to the capital on an expedited basis.
After noon, Liu Xi from the next village thought about it all night, and the next day he told his elder brother what happened in Stone Village. He was still very nervous at first.
There were only two brothers in their family. The year his eldest brother got married, there was a famine in the village. Their family had no choice but to escape from the village and beg all the way here.
It's a pity that my wife is not blessed and she left before they could show her filial piety. My sister-in-law was coaxed away with a piece of cake on the way, and my eldest brother is still unmarried.
After Liu Xi finished speaking, he stood aside with his head lowered. His elder brother Liu Dong frowned and was silent in thought. He raised his head and looked at Liu Xi with a bit of coldness in his eyes.
"You went to someone else's house?"
"Yes!" Liu Xi gritted his teeth. He went to someone else's house quietly.
"You went to ask someone about a baby?" Liu Dong felt embarrassed when he heard that his younger brother ran to someone's house and asked a three-year-old child how to go up the mountain.
How could he have such an embarrassing brother?
"Yes" Liu Xi lowered his head even further.
Liu Dong closed his eyes and took a deep breath. If he hadn't been injured, he would have had to educate him.
"Tell me, what did the little girl say?" He didn't want to be a long-term worker. He was not free. It was not as easy as being a hunter. But in recent years, prey was hard to find and he couldn't eat it. If it was like that little girl As I said, it is not impossible to be a long-term worker.
Liu Xi told Liu Dong what Tianri Tianbao said to him that day, word for word.
The frown on his face gradually relaxed.
Liu Dong had a sullen face, glanced at Liu Xi, and said in a hoarse voice: "We can't do such a good thing alone. Ask Liu Zi if they are willing to go, and Hu Zi and the others. If they are all willing, we will do it later. Go to Stone Village."
"Brother! We are all willing to go!"
Before Liu Xi could answer, there was a loud response from behind.
Liu Xi turned around and saw that it was Liu Zi and Hu Zi. After careful inspection, there were actually ten of them.
He turned to look at his elder brother and asked with his eyes: Is this too much?
Liu Dong looked at the group of brothers in front of him and said coldly: "Did you all hear it just now?"
A dark-skinned man stood at the head. Hearing this, he immediately bared his teeth and laughed, scratching his head in embarrassment. .
Yesterday I went to Stone Village, and he went with me. He was happy to work as a long-term worker!
"I heard you, brother!"
"Looking at you, you all agree to go. As I said before, we are going to work. No matter how kind the master treats us, we can't do anything ungrateful. If I find out, then don't blame me for being indifferent. Brotherly love."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Liu Xi borrowed an ox cart and took Liu Dong towards Stone Village.
A group of strong men walked briskly and arrived in front of Gu's house in about a quarter of an hour. At this time, the door of Gu's house was open. Liu Xi looked into the yard and found two milk babies squatting on the ground.
