Chapter 12: Question
Chapter 12 Questioning
Gu Yunjiao said coldly, “Don’t say that the eldest sister doesn’t agree with the land sale, I won’t agree either.”
“In any case, the house and land in the family cannot be sold!”
“If you want to go to Fucheng, just go by yourself.”
Li’s cry was briefly interrupted, and then he cried more fiercely.
“You are also a conscience. Your father is gone. If you don’t look for it, you won’t let me go.”
Gu Yunjiao said lightly: “How can I have a conscience? I exchanged myself for five taels of silver to buy medicine for you, isn’t that enough?”
She stood up, “No one is stopping you from going to your father, only asking you not to sell the land.”
Lee cried even louder upon hearing this.
Gu Yunjiao ignored her and rummaged through the room on her own.
After searching for a while, Gu Yunjiao found a thick stack of books and pamphlets, as well as a white porcelain mortar.
Putting things aside, she continued to look.
Finally, I found what I was looking for in the drawer under the closet.
A rosewood box.
Open the box and inside is a set of gold needles.
She went back to her parents’ house today just for this.
There were originally two sets of needles at home, one set of gold needles and one set of silver needles.
Both sets were handed down by ancestors, and it is said that the great-grandfather of the family was an imperial doctor.
The set of silver needles that her father always used, and now that set of silver needles has disappeared with him.
Gu Yunjiao found a furoshiki, and was about to wrap the box and the milk bowl, when Mrs. Li propped herself up on the bed, she was shocked and said, “What are you doing? It was passed down by your father and cannot be sold!”
As she was talking, Gu Yunjiao’s eldest sister, Gu Mei, came in, and her eyes lit up when she saw the red sandalwood box.
She forgot that she had this at home.
There was gold in the needle, and although it was mixed with other things, there was always a bit of gold in it, and the red sandalwood box was also a good thing, maybe it could be worth a dozen taels of silver if you took it to the pawnshop.
Gu Mei raised his eyebrows, “Why, when you are married, you secretly move things from your mother’s house to her husband’s house?”
Gu Yunjiao quickly wrapped the things, and then held the bag in her arms.
Gu eyebrows said anxiously: “You can’t take this thing, the house is about to open the pot, I’ll take it to the pawnshop for some money.”
Gu Yunjiao sneered, “I just sold me for five taels of silver, how long did it take to spend it all?”
“Ordinary people, five taels of silver is enough for a year.”
Gu Mei said angrily: “What do you know, mother needs to take medicine every day, how many days will the money last?”
Li pursed her lips on the bed, how could she take medicine every day, she has not taken medicine for more than half a month.
Gu Mei, this dead girl, said that she had no money to pick up medicine.
Gu Yunjiao didn’t break up with Gu Mei, but said, “I won’t sell this thing, I’ll take it and use it.”
Hearing that he would not sell, Li Shi was relieved and lay down.
Gu Mei didn’t do it, “You can’t take it away, it’s an ancestral thing, you are not qualified to take it as a married woman!”
Gu Yunjiao looked at her coldly and suddenly said, “Eldest sister, I want to ask you.”
“This marriage of the Jiang family Chongxi was obviously requested by your second aunt. When the Jiang family gave the dowry money, why did you refuse to marry the next day?”
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t marry, why push me over?”
The original Gu Yunjiao was also stupid, so when the eldest sister and mother cried, they agreed.
Gu Mei’s eyes flickered, “Then if you get the dowry money, it will cost half of the medicine for your mother. What if you don’t marry me?”
Gu Yunjiao stared at Gu Mei, “I’m asking why you suddenly changed your mind and didn’t marry?”
