Chapter 243 They understand which is more important (2)
A trace of anger flashed in Zhou Ling's eyes, and he said sarcastically, "Why, are you afraid that I will hurt you?"

"No!" Zhou Liang shook his head hastily, and said in a low voice, "I know you are doing it for my own good."

"It's good if you know." Zhou Ling said coldly: "Do you think I took you to Gu's house to apologize just to make grandma feel better? Did you see that Bai Qingli just now? You know he has What background? Let me tell you, most of the court officials, big and small, will act in the face of his grandfather. Do you think you can afford to offend such a person? Let alone Bai Qingli, just Speaking of the brothers and sisters of the Gu family, they have earned a lot of property in less than a year, and with this momentum of development, it is not impossible for them to become a rich man in a few years, how will our Zhou family arrange it at that time?"

Zhou Liang opened his mouth, and just as he was about to speak, Zhou Ling interrupted him coldly: "Don't think that they really can't find out what you did before, they just didn't find out for a while, it doesn't mean that they will definitely not find out in the future. If you can’t find out, if you don’t admit your mistake sincerely, I’ll send you to Rongcheng to be disciplined by grandpa, and see if he doesn’t beat you to death.”

"Brother, I know I'm wrong, don't send me to grandpa." Zhou Liang hastily stepped forward and took his hand, begging: "Last time you sent me to grandpa, grandpa beat me thirty times, I lay in bed for a month before I recovered."

"It's good if you know you're wrong, and you have to behave well at night. Look at how much grandma loved you when she was a child. Do you have the heart to let her grow old and make her grandchildren cry day and night?" Zhou Liang sighed again and said: "You It's not a solution to be afraid of grandpa like this. We will still have to go back to Rongcheng in the future. By then, our house will not be the only one in the Zhou family in Rongcheng. Every eye of the first and third families will be on us. As long as we If there is any mistake, they will seize it and make a fuss, our father is gone, we can only rely on ourselves, and I am disabled, even if I want to, I am not strong enough!"

"Brother, I got it. Let's go back together at night, even if I carry you on my back, I will carry you back!" Zhou Liang vowed.

"That's good. The Gu family doesn't want to see us, and we don't want to stay in their yard and block their eyes. Let's wait outside in the carriage." Zhou Ling rubbed the center of his brows wearily.

"Okay." Zhou Liang responded, pushed Zhou Ling's carriage out of the courtyard gate, and waited on the carriage.

When Gu Datian came back at noon, he didn't say anything after knowing about this, but asked Mrs. Lin to bring some food to the carriage for them. Gu Xiaobei originally wanted to stop him, but seeing Mrs. Lin busy in the kitchen, he was too busy. Very happy, the words she was about to say got stuck in her mouth.Forget it, for grandma's sake, let them have a family-friendly meal.

Lin smiled and took the food out of the yard, knocked on the carriage: "Xiaoling, Xiaoliang, let's eat first."

As soon as Zhou Liang opened the curtain and stretched out his hand, Zhou Ling stopped him. Zhou Ling smiled and said to Lin: "Thank you grandma, but they still refuse to forgive us. We have no face to eat their food."

"Silly boy, it's just a meal. Datian and the others asked me to bring it. Besides, won't you be hungry if you don't eat something?" Lin looked at the two grandchildren with some distress, although she really wanted to ask for more Gu Datian and the others forgave the two grandchildren, but reason told her that she could not do this. The grandchildren of both families were her own flesh and blood, and they were all flesh in her hands. She could not break the hearts of Gu Xiaobei brothers and sisters for Zhou Liang and the others. .

"It's okay, grandma, you go in first, we have some dry food in the carriage." Zhou Ling smiled and shook his head.

Seeing that he was resolutely refusing to accept it, Mrs. Lin could only helplessly say: "Then grandma will bring you some hot water?"

"Thank you grandma." Zhou Ling smiled and nodded.

Lin sighed, and brought the food into the yard again.

"Brother, we obviously don't have dry food with us." Zhou Liang frowned and looked at Zhou Ling.

"If you don't eat a meal, you're starving to death?" Zhou Ling gave him an annoyed look.

"It's not one meal, it's two meals. I don't know when I can get home at night." Zhou Liang said angrily.

"Okay, stop talking. Since you want to admit your mistakes, you must be sincere and do what you say. Otherwise, how will you manage your business in the future?" Zhou Liang instructed.

Zhou Liang pursed his lips and didn't speak, he really regretted it now, if he had known that there would be today, he would definitely not be against Gu Xiaobei and the others.

Seeing that Mrs. Lin brought back the food intact, Gu Xiaobei couldn't help raising his eyebrows: "What? Do the two sons of the Zhou family dislike our food?"

"No." Lin shook her head hastily, "Xiaoliang and the others said that they didn't get your forgiveness, and they didn't have the face to eat your food. They should just eat the dry food they brought. I persuaded them for a long time, but they refused to accept it. Had to bring it back again.”

Gu Xiaobei was slightly taken aback, never expecting them to be like this.

Gu Datian sighed, and said to Lin: "Then grandma, send them some hot water."

"Okay." Lin nodded with a smile.

After lunch, Gu Datian led a group of hired workers to go to work. When he passed the carriage outside the yard, he deliberately slowed down and took a look. He heard voices coming from the carriage, and then he walked away.

In the afternoon, Mrs. Lin helped with some housework, and looked out of the courtyard from time to time. Gu Xiaobei didn't show any emotion when he saw it, pretending he didn't see it.

It was almost dark when Gu Erye and Gu Sanlin came back.

After the hired workers had eaten, those who lived nearby lit torches and went home, and those who lived far away lived in Gu Xiaobei's house. Fortunately, when the Gu family built the new courtyard, they built several more guest rooms, otherwise they would still be in trouble. Really not enough to live.

After eating, Gu Datian took a puff of dry cigarette, and then said to his two younger brothers, "Come with me to my room."

Gu Xiaobei blinked, knowing that Gu Datian was going to talk about Zhou Liang and the others, so he trotted to follow.

Gu Datian turned around and looked at Gu Xiaobei in embarrassment: "Little sister, wait outside first, I will call you in later."

"Why? My siblings used to discuss matters at home together. Why don't you let me participate today?" Gu Xiaobei frowned and pouted.

"It's not that you're not allowed to participate, it's just that we'll let you come in later to discuss together." Gu Datian hurriedly said.

"I don't want it, why are you avoiding me? Is there something I can't know? Now that I'm not married, you will be born like this. After that, if I get married, won't I be alienated like a stranger?" Gu Xiaobei The accusation is authentic.

"Of course not!" Gu Erye immediately swore to the sky: "Whether my little sister marries or not, she will always be our little sister, and will never change."

Gu Sanlin and Gu Datian looked at each other helplessly, and nodded tacitly at the same time: "Then the little girl can come together."
