Chapter Four
As soon as the three divorce letters were written, everyone's attention was focused on Gu Nanfeng.
At this moment, Gu Nanfeng no longer had the irritability he had just now, and his whole person had calmed down, so he naturally noticed the changes in the people around him.
The Gu family member who had just anxiously advised him was now comforting his mother, but his mother looked like "if you can, just press your fingerprints", obviously determined that he would not press his fingerprints.
There are already three people's fingerprints on the fingerprint. As long as he dares to press it, he really has nothing to do with the Gu family.
What will happen to a brother who is rejected by his in-laws and has no family to return to? Even just thinking about it, I can tell that from now on I can only live a life of being bullied.
Everyone in the Gu family and the village, including Gu Nanfeng's mother and brother, all felt that Gu Nanfeng would not be able or dare to press the fingerprint.
"Nanfeng, how can this mother and son have an overnight feud? What on earth are you and your mother arguing about? How can you use the knife on your mother? You should listen to the eldest uncle's advice and apologize to your mother quickly. It's time to kneel down. It’s time to kowtow when you kneel, and quickly ask your mother to forgive you. This matter is over and we won’t mention it from now on.”
Uncle Gu and his wife, as well as everyone who rushed to Gu's house, still don't know why the two mother and son were so quarrelsome, why they went under the knife, and why they were about to break off their relationship.
However, although there was talk of breaking off the relationship, in their opinion, the divorce letter was caused by the anger between the mother and the son. Gu Nanfeng would not be so stupid as to break off the relationship with his family, so a few people just pressed their fingerprints I didn't have any scruples when I was there, I just thought it was to appease Gu's mother who was in high spirits.
Gu Nanfeng actually knew that his mother was forcing him to compromise, and she didn't really disown him, but he didn't want to recognize her anymore. He felt that it didn't matter whether he wanted his mother or not.
Without any hesitation or hesitation, Gu Nanfeng stretched out his thumb and pressed the fingerprints. While everyone was shocked and at a loss, he quickly pressed three fingerprints, then picked up one of the documents and walked away directly. A little nostalgic, as if this place is really not his home anymore.
"Nanfeng? My child! You are confused!" The aunt was the first to react. She quickly stepped forward to stop him, but she couldn't stop him at all.
Gu Nanfeng was determined to leave, and no one could stop him unless forced by a few young men.
The document was tightly held in his hand, and he kept walking. Gu Nanfeng even started running. In the blink of an eye, he had already run a long way away, and his aunt, uncle, cousin, and the others also hurriedly Followed and chased out.
Everyone chased Gu Nanfeng out, but Gu's mother collapsed on the ground. She never expected that Gu Nanfeng could really press that fingerprint and really cut off ties with the family!
"Mom, you get up first." Gu Qingyao was also a little stunned. He also didn't expect that his younger brother could be so decisive and would rather cut off ties with the family than stay in the Liu family as a concubine.
Gu Qingyao went to pull his mother who was lying on the ground, but at this moment Gu's mother regretted it a little and pushed Gu Qingyao away who was pulling him away. She cried while pointing at people and scolding: "It's all you, It’s all your bad idea! If you hadn’t said that you would force him to break off the marriage, how could this have happened!”
"What are you still doing here! Go quickly and get your brother back!" Mother Gu couldn't stop crying. She was really crying now.
When Father Gu passed away, she promised that she would raise her four children well, but now one of her children was driven out of the Gu family by her own hands. This made her feel at ease.
Gu's mother began to regret it, but Gu Qingyao felt that Gu Nanfeng was scaring them! Just to make them compromise.
He squatted down next to his mother, with a very bad expression on his face. After glancing towards the entrance of the village, he said angrily: "Mom, why are you so stupid? If the divorce document doesn't go to the government office to cross the clear road, then It's just a piece of waste paper! That kid is obviously trying to scare us, just watch. Uncle and the others will chase him back in a while. Even if they can't chase him back, he will have no choice but to go back to Liu's house.
And now that he has lost his natal family, he can only return to the Liu family. Doesn’t this suit our wishes? "
Gu Qingyao said he was determined and felt that the current situation was beneficial to them. Thinking of this, he smiled on his face and felt that his marriage into the Liu family was a certainty.
Gu Qingyao's analysis actually made Gu's mother think it made sense, and it was true after thinking about it carefully.
Now that he has no family to return to, he can only stay in the Liu family, which is what they thought at the beginning. Even if they have offended their son now, how can mother and son have an overnight feud? It will be fine when he gets over his anger in a few days.
"It would be great if this could be done." Mother Gu said, slowly getting up from the ground, walking to the door and looking at the entrance of the village. She felt that if her son could come back, it would be best to tear up the document.
Although he is still her son regardless of whether there is that thing, but there is that thing that is inimical to others.
Here, the mother and son of the Gu family thought that Gu Nanfeng was just trying to scare them, not to scare them. But now that he has lost his natal family, he can only stay in the Liu family. This has fulfilled their previous thoughts, so they are relieved. Down there, Gu Nanfeng suddenly stopped after running to the entrance of the village.
Gu Nanfeng's legs have been fast since his calves. When he ran, no one could catch him unless he was tired. It was only when he stopped at the entrance of the village that the people behind him caught up with him.
The uncle and the others stopped when they saw the person, and finally felt relieved, but as soon as they opened their mouth to call for someone, Gu Nanfeng got into the Wang family at the entrance of the village.
The Wang family at the entrance of the village had a good relationship with his family. Before his father passed away, he had a very good relationship with Boss Wang. The two often went out together and they were considered the best brothers.
After his father passed away, the Wang family has always taken good care of their orphans and widowers.
Gu Nanfeng went to Wang's house for no other reason than that he wanted to ask Boss Wang something.
The Wang family is also a brick house with an elegant courtyard. Gu Nanfeng called Uncle Wang as soon as he walked in. However, Boss Wang was not here today, only his mother-in-law was at home.
"Auntie, is Uncle Wang here?" Seeing someone shelling beans, Gu Nanfeng thought of some things at home, but now he no longer wanted to mention those things.
After Aunt Wang watched Gu Nanfeng come in, many other Gu family members came in. Just when she was confused, Gu Nanfeng asked directly: "Auntie, do you know who my father's favorite child was when he was alive? His favorite child Which one of my siblings is it?"
"Your third brother, at that time, he would carry your third brother on his back wherever he went."
"Oh. Okay, okay." The third brother is still his third brother. Okay, great, there will be no one he can't let go of from now on.
People say that the emperor loves the eldest son and the people love the youngest son, but when it comes to him, it's not that his mother doesn't love him as the youngest son, she doesn't even love him as much as an outsider.
Aunt Wang obviously just said what she knew casually, but now the Gu family was extremely anxious, and everyone was trying to persuade Gu Nanfeng.
"Nanfeng! Your father likes you the most. You and he look exactly the same. Don't listen to other people's nonsense. Your father really likes you the most. You were in poor health when you were a child, and he had to do it every day. I'll stew pigeons for you to eat, and the pigeon meat is a good thing and very expensive! If your father didn't like you, why would he have spent so much money on you!" The uncle was extremely anxious.
The eldest uncle also quickly echoed: "Yes, yes, your father likes you the most."
"Uncle, it doesn't matter who my father's favorite child is, as long as he doesn't hate me as much as my mother-in-law." After Gu Nanfeng said this, he saw that his uncle and cousin still wanted to speak, He quickly signaled them to stop, and then said:
"Uncle, no matter what, I will not go back again. The Liu family wants to marry my third brother and make me a concubine. My mother-in-law agreed, and she asked his son to let me stay in the Liu family as a concubine. Yes, they are determined on this matter, and it is because I refused to agree to this matter that she decided to break off our relationship with me and cut off my escape route."
"What are you talking about? Why marry your third brother or become a concubine? Are they crazy?"
"Uncle, uncle, cousin, please go back. I'll go back to the Liu family. Don't worry."
Gu Nanfeng directly exposed the matter between his third brother and Liu Muyuan, which obviously others didn't know yet.
After this matter came out, Uncle Gu immediately became angry. Now he had no time to care about Gu Nanfeng, and went to find the mother and son with an angry face.
When Gu Nanfeng returned to Liu's house, he had better luck than when he came back. Halfway through, he met an ox cart going to town. He took the ox cart back to town.
As soon as he arrived in town, Gu Nanfeng went directly to the Liu family's shop. He asked the waiter to get him some food and filled his stomach before entering the house.
The first thing Gu Nanfeng did when he returned to the backyard was to find an abacus. He wanted to settle an account with the Liu family.
"Although you, the Liu family, married me instead of hiring me to work, your original betrothal gift was also spent on the husband you are going to marry now, so it cannot be regarded as a dowry for me. Moreover, you and I We have been married for three years, and you know whether we are considered husband or wife. I actually have nothing to do with your Liu family. I just worked hard in your Liu family for three years, and you must give me this salary."
Putting the abacus in front of the person, Gu Nanfeng managed to make a calculation for the person.
Since he married into the Liu family, he has been busy every day. In addition to the tofu shop and breakfast shop, he also has to do household chores.
The shop at home hired a clerk, who was paid eight taels of silver per month. He did much more work than the clerk, so one tael of silver per month was not too much.
He remembered that the Liu family gave him a betrothal gift of ten taels of silver, but his mother did not bring it to him. Instead, she spent it on his third brother. Now that the Liu family wants to marry his third brother, the original betrothal gift can also be considered as a betrothal gift. He spent the money where it should be spent, and he didn't have to pay for it.
Three years is thirty-six months. Even if the clerk's salary is eight cents a month, there are almost twenty-nine taels of silver in three years.
