66 Chapter 66 Spreading The News
“They definitely used you. Otherwise, why would the two of them, who have always disliked us, take the initiative to find us?”
“Two shameless women, you just watch how I deal with them in the future.”
“You should stay away from them. No matter what, they’ve crawled their way out of the capital. In terms of schemes and means, we’re not their match.”
Hearing her words, Sixth Aunt Gu felt indignant, but she calmed down. Then, she asked, “Sister-in-law, now everyone in the village knows about Gu Chengrui and his wife selling sprouts. What should we do? Should we tell big brother? ”
“It’s almost noon. I’ll let your brother know when he’s back.” Mrs. Wang paused for a moment and said in a bad mood, “You too, in the future, you should keep your mouth shut, or else everything will be ruined by your blabbering.”
“I know, sister-in-law. I’ll go back now.” Sixth Aunt Gu stood up and left.
Mrs. Wang looked at her back and shook her head, but she was also a little curious about Gu Chengrui’s bean sprouts.
On the other hand, the women on good terms with Mrs. Bai immediately went to her house to report after dispersing from the village entrance.
Therefore, by noon, when the village chief and patriarch knew about this, they couldn’t even enjoy eating lunch.
The people from the two clans, especially those who had financial difficulties, came to visit. They asked them to go to Gu Chengrui’s house and see if they could get Gu Chengrui to teach them how to grow bean sprouts.
In the Gu family’s old mansion, after lunch, Mrs. Yao told the others about Gu Chengrui’s selling bean sprouts. “I heard these bean sprouts have been selling well at the Hongyun Restaurant in town. I’m sure it won’t be cheap.
“Chengrui and his wife are sure good at scheming. They didn’t even tell us about such a good deal. If I had known…”
Mrs. Qiao interrupted her with a dark face. “If you knew, what could you have done? You’ve been bullying them so much, so how could you expect them to tell you anything?”
After she finished speaking, she fiercely glared at Mrs. Liu.
“No, mother, didn’t you not care before?” Mrs. Liu met her resentful eyes and said aggrievedly.
She was disgruntled. Everyone clearly didn’t object to the separation of their family, so why did they blame her now?
Especially the old woman. Don’t think she didn’t know that this old hag had more silver than any of them. She didn’t even help Gu Chengrui and his wife back then.
According to the changes in her expression, Mrs. Qiao knew what she was thinking and suddenly felt short of breath. Finally, she simply picked up her walking stick, hit it on the ground, and then hobbled back to the house.
Seeing this, Gu Chengxi immediately put down his chopsticks, turned around, and ran out.
Seeing this, Mrs. Yao said unhappily, “What a sponge.”
“Madam, Chengxi is just tired from chopping firewood the entire morning.” After Mrs. Sun finished speaking, she lowered her head and silently ate the rice in her bowl.
“You…” Mrs. Yao still wanted to speak, but Second uncle Gu directly interrupted her, “Enough, what’s all the noise? Can you all shut your mouths when eating?”
“Brother, do you want to go out for a walk?”
When Father Gu heard that, he knew what was up. He hesitated for a moment, but still nodded and walked out.
Because the family’s income was minimal, they could only watch as their wealth decreased if they didn’t find something to do.
Most importantly, two grown men lazily living off the women at home was not a good impression.
