Chapter 14: Utterly Selfish
Chapter 14 Selfishness
Gu Chuan’s face turned red, he, he often felt uncomfortable and wanted to take a bath, but he didn’t have the strength to fetch water, so he told the eldest sister, but the eldest sister said that men are dirty or not, that’s how they live.
Gu Mei turned his face away and stopped talking.
In her previous life, after she married into the Jiang family, she sold the land in her family for more than half a year, and she was able to do everything she could. At the behest of the Li family, the second aunt sold Gu Yunjiao to a foreign businessman as a concubine for 20 taels of silver. , has not returned since.
I heard that the man is older than her father.
And my mother took twenty taels of silver and took my brother to Fucheng to find my father. After going there for a few months, my mother came back alone.
Gu Mei went home and asked where did his brother go?
The mother said that she had no money to eat, so she sold her younger brother.
Gu Mei could see through her mother, she was extremely selfish, not to mention her daughter, not even her son.
She also has to plan for herself.
As for the younger siblings, she will live a new life, she knows that neither of them will be able to help her in the future, and they will not be able to rely on them.
So, recently, she just made two random meals at home and perfunctory things.
When her mother’s medicine was gone, she didn’t pick it up, and her younger brother didn’t bother to take care of it. He went to the second uncle’s house all day long to curry favor with the second aunt, and wanted the second aunt to give her a good marriage.
She also came back from her second uncle’s house just now.
Gu Yunjiao looked at Gu Mei like this, and her heart became colder.
In this family, the mother and the eldest sister are all selfish and selfish. There is no family affection at all.
Only this younger brother looks a little human now.
She was too lazy to say anything else, holding the burden in one hand and pulling Gu Chuan out in the other.
came out and went to the kitchen. She first found a place to hide her baggage, then rolled up her sleeves and planned to boil water for Gu Chuan to take a bath.
Who would have thought that when I walked into the water tank, it was empty and there was not a drop of water.
Gu Yunjiao had to take the bucket and turn around to fetch water from the well outside.
She has thin arms and legs, so she managed to get a bucket of water and laboriously mentioned the kitchen.
Going to hit the second bucket, my arms are so sore that I can hardly lift them up.
Gu Yunjiao thought about it, this is not good, Gu Chuan is so dirty, he doesn’t have seven or eight buckets of water, I’m afraid he won’t be able to wash it clean.
She waved to Gu Chuan, “Come on, follow me to the entrance of the village.”
Gu Chuan happily followed Gu Yunjiao.
My mother doesn’t care about him, neither does the eldest sister, only the second sister is willing to get close to him.
The two came out to the entrance of the village and saw Jiang Youzhi sitting under a big tree.
Seeing Gu Yunjiao, he hurriedly got up and walked over.
Gu Yunjiao said unequivocally: “Well, I want to fetch water to bathe my brother, but I can’t carry the bucket.”
The bucket was made of wood, and the bucket alone weighed a few pounds. With a bucket of water, it was laborious to move a single step.
Talking to smart people is to save worry, Jiang Youzhi nodded, “Then I will help you.”
Several people went home again.
Along the way, the villagers could not stop looking at Jiang Youzhi.
Everyone guessed that this was Gu Yunjiao’s new son-in-law, and they were very curious. Besides, Jiang Youzhi was born handsome and didn’t look like a countryman at all.
The three of them went home with their eyes all the way.
entered the yard and happened to bump into Gu Mei coming out of the room.
She saw Jiang Youzhi’s eyes brighten for a moment, then she didn’t know what to think, her eyes dimmed again, she stood at the door for a long time, and then went back to her room thoughtfully.
