Chapter 10
When Mrs. Gu heard this, she exploded, "Okay, I knew you were all in the same group! You joined together to frame me. Isn't it because I didn't take care of the old immortal at the time? But I gave you the Gu family I gave birth to four sons.”

"Gu Sun, do you know what you are talking about?" The old patriarch originally thought it was nothing but a farce, but Mrs. Gu's words were simply a challenge to his authority.

"Back then, you committed seven crimes for not supporting your mother-in-law and father-in-law. We, the Gu family, did not divorce you because you gave birth to four sons for the Gu family over the years. Now you have brought up the old matter again and do not respect the deceased. , does our Gu family belong to you? How can someone like you educate the sons of our Gu family?"

Mrs. Gu sat down on the ground, crying and singing, "What's wrong with me? My two sons are both scholars, and they are about to take the imperial examination. They are no better than your sons. What's wrong with me? Now I want to get the exam It’s a joke to suppress me seven times.”

He pointed at Sheng Qingtang and said, "I married this little bitch. She is a girl from a wealthy family. How have I ever failed the Gu family?"

"You still have the nerve to say that the night the new daughter-in-law came in, she asked her for money. Also, you said outside every day that the family was poor because she bought medicine for Da Lang. In fact, Da Lang bought medicine for him. He earned the money by copying books, and the little money he earned as a scholar was given to you in your hands. Maybe it was sent to his parents' family, and he said he had nothing to do with the Gu family. "

"Hey, what's going on in this niece's house?" She had already noticed that something was wrong in this house. "Isn't it because my sister-in-law went in and rummaged through something?"

Mrs. Song just wanted to tear her face off, otherwise everyone would still think she was a Bodhisattva because she cared so much about her son.

Patriarch Gu's eyes shot up. He didn't expect that there was a dowry involved. Isn't this ruining the reputation of the Gu family?

Although Gujiacun is called Gujiacun, there are actually not only people with the surname Gu living in the village. For example, Li Zheng in the village now has the surname Li, which is also the common surname in the village, and there are also daughters-in-law who married from the next village. If this spreads out, Not only did the Gu family lose face in the village, their reputation outside was ruined.

"Ms. Sun, you've passed. How can a new daughter-in-law ask for a dowry as soon as she walks in?"

When Old Madam Gu opened her mouth to find some excuse, the clan leader immediately blocked her back, "No excuses will work. With the new wife's dowry, will all the men in our Gu family die?"

"Also, Yanli has always been in poor health. He is so smart and will surely pass the exam in the future. You are his biological mother, and this is how you treat him? You still say outside every day that all your family's money is given to Yanli. See a doctor."

"Our Gu family's money can only be spent on the Gu family. No matter you or whoever dares to put the sons of the Gu family behind the nephews of the natal family, the Gu family temple is too small to accommodate big Buddhas like you. Neither you nor the other daughters-in-law of the Gu family can it's the same."

The married daughter-in-law sometimes likes to take some things back to her parents' house, which is okay. After all, everyone is raised by their parents. But if the son of the Gu family is damaged, it will damage the foundation of the Gu family, and he will never allow it.

"I didn't..." Mrs. Gu didn't know what to say now. She did take the money back to her parents' home, but most of it was spent on Gu Shixu, but she didn't dare to say it. If she said it, wouldn't it mean that everyone People say that her son went to school with the money his brother bought for medicine. Then can her son still be a high official in the future?

Sheng Qingtang stood by and watched a big play, looking like he was about to cry, and felt very happy.

Doesn't the old patriarch of the Gu family know what kind of life Gu Yanli leads?

Maybe I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but I have some understanding of it. They are all from the same village. If I don't know anything about it, it is definitely impossible.

Why hasn't it been taken care of?

Because what does this matter have to do with him?
Gu Yanli is not his biological grandson, so as long as it doesn't cause trouble in front of his eyes, he won't care.

I rushed here in such a hurry today just because I was afraid of killing someone, and I couldn't hide it when the time came.

Later, he had to take care of Mrs. Gu because of her indiscriminate words.Otherwise, no one will take him seriously in the future, and he will be a joke to the other wealthy families in the village.
-
After scolding Mrs. Gu fiercely, the old patriarch seemed to finally remember Sheng Qingtang, who had been standing by the side, "My wife Yanli, you just got married. In fact, Mrs. Sun still loves Yanli. Don't complain." She only wants your dowry because she wants to buy some food because of the natural disasters this year and hard times."

Sheng Qingtang wiped her tears gently with a handkerchief and bowed to Patriarch Gu softly, "My family teaches you to obey your husband when you marry. How can you complain about your mother-in-law? I just hope that my mother-in-law will not be afraid of her second brother and her husband when she faces them." It’s time to be fairer.”

Speaking of Gu Yanli, Patriarch Gu was a little silent.

Because Yanli is really not a family-oriented kid, his eyes seem to be able to see through people's hearts.

They care about the family, even if they are as good as Gu Shixu, they don't have this ability.

Even if he is wearing rags and linen clothes, he looks as noble as wearing silk and satin.

When he had just passed the scholar examination, he really felt that this child was like a phoenix in the mountain nest, and he cared about him. However, when it came time for the examination, he started to fall ill, once or twice, and it happened every time. , and he no longer had any hope.

No matter how talented you are, without a body, you are nothing.

I'm afraid that Mr. Sun had the same idea as him. Since the eldest son was going to die, he would train the second son, and leave the eldest son to pave the way for the second son. This approach was understandable.

But why did he marry a daughter-in-law from a wealthy family at this banquet?

Who are the members of my daughter-in-law’s natal family?Can he help his son in the future?
Would he like to help with the banquet again?
After weighing the pros and cons, Patriarch Gu said to Mrs. Gu, "Ms. Sun, you like your second son. From now on, you and Dashu can live together with Shixu. I will make the decision to share the banquet with his wife."

"If you no longer live together, there will definitely be fewer conflicts."

"No, no, I don't agree. He is my son, why should he be separated!"

How could Mrs. Gu agree to the separation of the family? Not to mention that she hadn't gotten the money yet, even the adults above would not agree to divide the eldest son. The adults said that she would torture the eldest son severely and kill him. Put it under your nose.

Patriarch Gu didn't want to hear these useless reasons. He was old and tired. He hadn't finished dinner when he came. He just didn't want to get into trouble with Mr. Gu, "That's it. It's settled with you." Another homestead is planned behind the homestead, and Yanli and his wife will live there in the future."

"Don't say you love the banquet or anything like that. I don't believe it either. Just don't get involved. If you don't obey, I will make the decision. As the head of the Gu family, I will divorce you. If Gu Dashu doesn't want to, I will cut all of your lineage out of the family tree."

When the old patriarch said this, Mrs. Gu immediately didn't dare to speak.

Whether it was being divorced or being removed from the family tree, it was not something she could bear.

In the end, they could only silently agree to the separation.
