Chapter 527 Why do unworthy descendants keep him here?
"Xiaoxue is a good girl. I will definitely stop this." Uncle Gu said, "Your aunt and I have discussed it. If they want to use Xiaoxue to atone for Ruinian's crime, we old couple will take Xiaoxue back to our home and raise her."
Liu Tielian said: "If the Xu family dares to come and rob people, I will bring people to stop them. I will definitely not let Xiaoxue fall into the trap."
In fact, there is a way to prevent the Xu family from snatching her away, that is to get Xiaoxue engaged to Liu Tielan's youngest son. Liu Tielan's wife saw that the youngest son liked Xiaoxue, and the couple had a good impression of Xiaoxue. In private, they said that Xiaoxue was beautiful, sensible and capable. If she was not Gu Youtian's daughter, they would definitely be willing to propose marriage.
Xiaoxue suffers because she has a pair of weird parents and a calculating Gu Ruinian. No matter how good Xiaoxue is, they dare not get involved with her.
It has to be said that Tong Huaqiong had a better impression of Liu Tielian and Gu Ershu.
In this era where girls are generally not treated as treasures, these two people have always been very good to their daughter.
If Liu Tielian and Uncle Gu cannot stop the Xu family's excessive demands to make Xiaoxue pay for the crime, Tong Huaqiong will take action.
After all, she couldn't bear to see the silent, hard-working girl being forced to jump into the fire.
She can save Xiaocao, Chunni, and even Lian Hengruo, and she doesn't mind saving Xiaoxue as well.
Gu Ruinian is not worthy of Xiaoxue sacrificing for him.
She wanted to see whether Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu would be willing to give up if it came to Gu Honglian.
A group of people came to Jufulai.
"Wow, your shop is bigger than the one in Yanguan Town." Liu Tielian leaned over to look at Jufulai's container.
They were so busy negotiating matters with Mr. Gu that they didn't even have time to see Jufulai.
The one in Yanguan Town has already opened the eyes of the villagers. The Jufulai in Pingchuan County is bigger and has more goods than the one in Yanguan Town.
It was very lively with people coming and going. Liu Tielian thought to himself that Tong Dajiao had really made a fortune.
Uncle Gu nodded with his hands behind his back. He was also happy that his niece-in-law and her family were doing well.
At the same time, he sighed in his heart, thinking that his eldest brother and sister-in-law were just too narrow-minded. They favored the second wife so much, and she would have to clean up their messes when they were old. It would be better for them to give up the second wife and live a peaceful life with the eldest daughter-in-law.
Tong Huaqiong said: "If you like it, come back and have a look, and pick up anything you like."
Uncle Gu said, "You are a filial son, but this business is about making money. Today this relative comes, tomorrow that relative comes, and if they all pick what they like, it will be a mess. Let's go shopping again, and you can get a cheaper price."
Tong Huaqiong said readily, "Okay."
Uncle Gu was an upright person and he often gave Gu Jingzhe advice in the previous life, but in the previous life, Gu Jingzhe did not listen to him and went astray.
Before Tong Huaqiong came to this life, he looked down on Tong Dajiao for being harsh on Dashu and his wife, and would scold Tong Dajiao whenever he saw her, so Tong Dajiao and he had a bad relationship. When Tong Huaqiong changed her personality, Uncle Gu put aside his previous prejudice and treated Tong Huaqiong and Yiwo Daizhu in a good light.
Even if Uncle Gu had to pay, Tong Huaqiong would give him some extra gifts for him to take back.
When Liu Yue'e saw her uncle Liu Tielian coming, she ran over to greet him with a smile.
Tong Huaqiong said to the second son's wife, "Go and call Dashu over."
She had a batch of goods to check, and planned to ask Gu Dashu to take the two of them out for dinner.
"You've been traveling for such a long time, you must be hungry." Tong Huaqiong looked concerned.
These two people have always helped Tong Huaqiong in the village. Even if Mr. Gu doesn't say anything, Tong Huaqiong has to provide them with meals.
"We really haven't eaten yet." Uncle Gu said. He knew that his niece-in-law really wanted to treat them to a meal, so he didn't bother to be polite to her.
Qinghe Bay is not very close to Pingchuan, so they set out before dawn, first walking to Yanguan Town and then taking a horse carriage. They had not eaten or drunk anything for the whole day, and after talking a lot to Grandpa Gu, they were indeed hungry and thirsty.
Second Uncle Gu couldn't help but feel upset. They had walked for such a long time to negotiate for Gu Ruinian and the Xu family, but Grandpa Gu and the others didn't even give them a bowl of water, let alone leave them any food.
He also understood that the second branch of the Gu family was too busy to entertain them with dinner because of Gu Ruinian's matter, but it was really too much that they didn't even say a polite word.
Uncle Gu even wanted to go back and discuss with the clan and simply hand Gu Ruinian over to the Xu family for disposal. Why keep such an unfilial descendant around?
"I ate two steamed buns in the morning. I wanted to bring something to eat on the road, but the weather was too hot and I was afraid the food would go bad on the way, so I didn't bring any." Liu Tielian said.
At this time, Liu Tielian also felt that what Mr. Gu and the second branch did was too unreasonable.
If Second Uncle Gu wasn't around, he would have complained to Tong Huaqiong.
Gu Dashu came out of the warehouse.
"Uncle, Second Master." Gu Dashu greeted Liu Tielian and Second Uncle Gu.
Liu Tielian and Uncle Gu nodded secretly when they saw Gu Dashu, who looked like a decent man.
Liu Tielian thought to himself that his niece who had once brought shame to the family was finally living a good life.
Uncle Gu thought to himself that it was worth it that he warned Gu Dashu as soon as he saw him, and that he was finally on the right path.
Tong Huaqiong said to Gu Dashu, "Take your second uncle and uncle to have dinner."
Gu Dashu agreed with a smile. Naturally, he was willing to entertain his daughter-in-law's uncle and his own second grandfather.
He didn't even plan to use the official account, he would pay for the meal himself.
......
Wu Ji.
Gu Ruinian was lying on the bed.
With a look of anger on his face, he asked him to apologize to the Xu family. Do those peasants think they are qualified?
He wanted to ask someone to pass a message to the second son of Zheng, saying that if the Xu family beat him to a pulp or killed him, how would he continue to develop gunpowder?
He looked around but couldn't find a suitable person to pass the message to the Second Master Zheng.
The second son of Zheng said that whenever he could move, he would send him the materials needed to make gunpowder.
How to make gunpowder in Wu Ji's backyard?
If Wu Ji is blown up, he will definitely go to jail.
He could only return to Qinghewan. The countryside was spacious and he could just find a piece of land to conduct experiments.
But now the Xu family has made it clear that they will not let him go.
When he heard that Mr. Gu promised to send him to the Xu family as an apology, his heart sank.
The Gu family has given up on him.
The Xu family had no intention of letting him off.
At this time, the only one who can stop the Xu family is the Zheng family.
When Gu Ruinian was tearing the bed sheets in annoyance, he opened his eyes and found a figure standing in front of him.
Looking closely, it was Wu Na.
Wu Na has long wanted to meet Gu Ruinian alone, but has never found a chance.
While Gu Ruinian was the only one left in the room, Wu Na took the opportunity to run in.
"Why are you here?" Gu Ruinian thought of the first time he approached Lian Hengruo and how Wu Na scolded him for being a toad wanting to eat swan flesh. He felt so ashamed and angry.
Wu Na stood at the head of the bed without saying anything.
"You are here to laugh at me, right?" Gu Ruinian closed his eyes and said coldly, "If you've seen enough, get out."
Even the little daughter of the village head dared to laugh at him.
Everybody, everybody laughed at him.
Gu Ruinian’s chest almost exploded with hatred.
Wu Na did not leave, and said, "Brother Ruinian, why are you so confused?"
There was a hint of sob and grievance in his voice.
