Chapter 480: It’s unlucky to meet them——Gu Shuyi 8
It wouldn't matter if she didn't cry, but once she did, Gu Pingshun got impatient: "Well, how come you didn't learn to be good in the countryside, but you learned to throw a tantrum?"
Gu Pingshun was a little disdainful of his wife who was becoming more and more like the women in the village.
Those people in the mansion used to be very polite in their speech and behavior. He never regarded the people in his village as his relatives and friends, but thought they were just a group of ignorant villagers.
After hearing what Gu Pingshun said, Wu Cuifang couldn't help herself any longer. She shouted at Gu Pingshun: "What's the point of saying these useless things now? The most important thing now is to solve the problem at home."
What's the point of rules? No matter how many etiquettes there are, they are useless at this time. They are not as real as money.
"Then why didn't you put the money away properly? Has anyone else come to your house these days?"
"Other people have been here, but they haven't entered our bedroom." Suddenly, Wu Cuifang thought of someone: "The only one person is that damn girl. I'm afraid she has entered our room."
"Then go find her, bring her back quickly. What would a little kid like her do with so much money?"
"Look for her, where should I look for her? I don't even know where she went, how can I look for her..."
"Sometimes I don't know what to say to you. You raise a child at home, but you don't even know where she's gone? And you haven't even noticed such a big change in her."
"Are you blaming me?"
"I……"
"That's enough. This isn't the time for you to argue. We need to solve the problem at hand first. Without money, our family won't be able to move forward."
Hearing that his parents were arguing more and more fiercely, Gu Shuyuan immediately stepped forward to interrupt the quarrel between them.
"What can we do now? We have to go look for her. If we can't find her, we'll have to sell the land to get through this difficult time."
Gu Pingshun gave his advice. Now the three people in the family need money, so they have to give up some things.
Otherwise, if that dead girl wasn't found, they would all starve to death at home.
"Okay, then I'll go ask who wants to buy the land, and then I'll sell those acres of land first." Gu Shuyuan said as he put down the things in his hands and prepared to go out.
"When you sell your land, sell the medium-quality fields first. Keep the top-quality fields. They might be useful in the future." Gu Pingshun looked at his son's back and shouted hurriedly. If you sell the land now, people will definitely bargain down the price. You can't sell the top-quality fields now. You have to keep them and sell them at a good price.
"Okay." Gu Shuyuan nodded and quickly went out, ready to sell the land.
When people in the village heard that his family wanted to sell the land, some of them would still buy it.
The sale of the land went smoothly. Gu Shuyuan walked home with the silver in his arms. The moment he stepped into the house, the silver in his arms was taken away by Xihe.
She also kicked Gu Shuyuan, who stumbled and fell into the door, knocking out two teeth.
Gu Shuyuan also felt someone kicking him. He lay on the ground and reached for the thing in his arms, but that thing had already disappeared.
"Who took my money? Give it to me immediately..." Now Gu Shuyuan no longer cared about his image and etiquette, and just yelled.
But it was quiet outside, and he didn't see anyone passing by. He was the only one in the yard.
Gu Pingshun and his wife in the room heard his voice and hurriedly shouted in the room: "Yuan'er, Yuan'er, what happened?"
"Mom and Dad, the money is gone." Gu Shuyuan limped into the house with his head down.
"What? What did you say? No money?" Gu Pingshun asked hurriedly.
"I just got the money from selling the land and when I got to the door I felt someone kick me in the back. When I got up, the money was gone."
"Then why didn't you go out to take a look?" Gu Pingshun asked anxiously.
"I went to see it, and the road was quiet and there was no one there."
"How could this happen? How could this happen? The money we just paid for the land is gone now. They want our whole family to die."
Wu Cuifang's face was filled with despair, and she immediately burst into tears. What was going on? Disasters had been happening one after another during this period. Was this going to wipe out everyone in their family?
This time, listening to Wu Cuifang's crying, Gu Pingshun didn't say anything. He lay on the bed without saying a word. He couldn't figure it out.
Normally, only the secret guards in the capital could do such a sudden thing, but who would come to their house in this remote and poor area?
Could it be that the prince sent someone here? That shouldn't be the case, right?
The prince doesn't care about his daughter at all. If he wanted to come, he would have come a long time ago and would not have waited until now.
The prince had no hatred towards him and it was impossible for him to harm their family.
There is only one reason, that is that the dead girl did it. I don't know when she got such a set of kung fu skills.
Gu Shuyu was still the same, lying drowsy on the bed, sweating profusely.
Gu Shuyuan sat on the chair without saying a word. The money was thrown into his hands. He had nothing to say and was afraid that his parents would be angry and something bad would happen.
He was also worried about how he would go to school. If his family really had no money, it would be impossible for him to learn to read and write.
He also cursed Xihe in his heart. He thought that he should not let himself see that dead girl. If he saw her, he would definitely skin her alive.
Gu Pingshun didn't think of blaming his son. First of all, there was no point in saying anything. The money was lost and that was it.
Besides, they still need their son's care. If he is cruel and abandons them, what will happen to the three of them?
Looking at the gradually darkening sky, Gu Shuyuan reluctantly entered the kitchen and prepared to cook.
Gu Pingshun and his wife lay on the bed, looking at each other in silence, not knowing how to start a conversation.
These two people can still eat by themselves, but Gu Shuyu is drowsy and needs to be fed one spoonful at a time.
Before long, Gu Shuyuan's face was filled with impatience, and he felt that his sister might as well die so that she wouldn't be a burden to him.
But he couldn't do it. If his actions were discovered, he would have no chance of continuing his studies, let alone becoming an official.
He still remembered the prosperity of the capital and the majesty of the palace. He didn't want to rot in this mud all his life. He wanted to reach a high position.
I hope that the prince will still remember me by then and can help me reach a higher position.
She also hoped that the prince would help her for the sake of her sister, after all, she was also the prince's adopted daughter.
It's not enough to just feed them, you also have to change their bed sheets and wipe their bodies.
Gu Pingshun's situation is easy to solve, but Wu Cuifang and Gu Shuyu's situations are a bit difficult.
Gu Shuyuan had no choice but to put Gu Shuyu on Wu Cuifang's bed and ask her to look after her.
