Chapter 32 Grandma's House
Early the next morning, Liu Hehua came to wake up Gu Yun. She told her to get dressed and get up. They had to hurry.
Liu Hehua's mother's home, Liujiazhuang, was half a day's journey from Hebian Village, and that was at the speed of a bullock cart.
That's right, Gu Yun and her friends were going to Liujiazhuang by bullock cart. Because their family of four couldn't fit on a bicycle, and the village couldn't borrow a bicycle. So they had to use a bullock cart. Speaking of which, this was Gu Yun's first time riding a bullock cart, and she couldn't help but be curious.
Gu Jianguo borrowed a bullock cart from a villager early in the morning, and was waiting at the gate with the oxen harnessed. Gu Yun shuddered as she looked at the cow that sneezed. Is this really stable?
As it turned out, it was quite stable.
Gu Yun and Gu Xiang both put on hats and scarves, wrapped themselves tightly and sat side by side in the back seat, while Liu Hehua sat in the front seat and chatted with Gu Jianguo who was catching up. Although the journey was a bit bumpy, it was okay.
Gu Yun learned a shocking piece of information from their conversation.
Her grandmother was not her mother's biological mother!!
Gu Yun's mouth was so wide that it could almost hold an egg. It took her five minutes to digest this fact. But when he turned around, he saw Gu Xiang's calm expression, so he couldn't help but whispered, "Brother, did you know it a long time ago?"
Gu Xiang said calmly, "It's not a secret. Our mother didn't hide it from us. Many people know it." He glanced at Gu Yun strangely, "Why are you so surprised? Don't you know about it?"
Seeing Gu Yun's face full of surprise, Gu Xiang understood. He said helplessly, "You should pay more attention to our family affairs, my silly sister." His sister used to think about dressing up all day long, and didn't care about anything, and didn't even notice such an obvious thing.
Fortunately, she has changed a little now. She no longer pursues beauty all day long, and has begun to care about her family.
Gu Yun was also confused when she heard her brother say this. She didn't remember such a thing. Did the original owner know that her mother was not her grandmother's biological daughter? And this matter was not a secret. She couldn't help but sigh that the original owner was too careless. No wonder Liu Hehua didn't mention her relatives from her mother's side. I guess they didn't have much contact in normal times.
Sure enough, Gu Xiang continued, "Have you seen any contact between our family and our grandmother's family? Our mother doesn't go back to our grandmother's house unless it's something serious."
It sounds like Liu Hehua doesn't have a good relationship with her step-grandmother! Is there another hidden story?
Gu Yun instantly remembered the various dramas of stepmothers abusing stepchildren that she had seen on TV in her previous life.
Gu Xiang sighed again and said, "It's no wonder you don't know. You haven't been to their house many times since you were a child."
"You always thought it was too far before, so after you acted a little bit cute, your parents agreed not to let you go with them."
After saying that, he looked at Gu Yun and said strangely, "Come to think of it, you took the initiative to mention going to grandma's house yesterday, why do you suddenly want to go to their house?"
Gu Yun smiled awkwardly at Gu Xiang and said, "It's been a long time since I last went there. I'm so old now. If I don't go to pay New Year's greetings, people don't know what to say about our family."
