"Roll and get out of here! If you don't, I'll go find Gu jia Ao and tell him that you're a dirty shameless woman. You've climbed to my brother's bed before."
The amount of information in Old Mrs. Su's words made Gu Chunzu's eyes widen in shock.
Hao's neck shrunk like an old hen, she suddenly lost her momentum. Her mouth curved down and said, "fWe're a family, leave me some face in front of my children and grandchildren."
"Face..so you know what shame is!" Old Mrs Su spat on the side and rubbed her hands. "When will you go back?!"
"I'll stay for a while..after Lunch, ah... "
Hao Shi glanced at the kitchen, but before she could finish speaking, she was grabbed by Old Mrs Su..
Even with a shorter and thinner stature, Old Mrs Su grabbed the collar of her back coat and dragged her outside.
"You damn Old woman!" Hao shi was thrown out of the wooden gate. She angrily stomped on the ground before leaving.
After driving Hao shi away.
Old Mrs went back to the kitchen.
A pair of small eyes looked at Gu Chunzhu and the two children, she murmured, "really useless. Aren't you aggressive to me at ordinary times?"
"Mother must be joking, I wouldn't dare!" Gu Chunzhu was left dumbfounded by two old ladies.
Recalling their conversation just now, They knew each other when they were young. When Hao Shi was still unmarried, she wanted to be Old Mrs. Su's sister-in-law, so it was the scene.
Old lady Su took a deep breath and sat down on the dinner table. She took a gulp on Hao's bowl of brown sugar water and swallowed it.
"That..." Gu Chunzhu wanted to remind her that this sugar water was Hao shi
Old Mrs su turned around and raised her eyebrow, "how can your mother drink sugar water and not me? Can't I drink half of your bowl?"
Seeing that bowl of brown sugar water was drunk empty by Old Mrs Su.
Gu Chunzu covered her mouth and remained silent.
After drinking the brown sugar water, She pointed at Gu Chunzhu's forehead and said, "You're to blame, If you let her in again, I will skin you."
"I'm already married to the Su family. I know that." Gu Chunzhu hurriedly waved her hand and said her thanks to Old Mrs Su.
"Where's the Eldest? Why isn't he at home?" Old Mrs Su felt comfortable after reprimanding Gu Chunzhu. She looked over the room and didn't see Su Wangqin.
"He went to work."
"What kind of work?"
Old Mrs Su stared at Gu Chunzhu.
" He's carrying rice in the pier for a living." Gu Chunzhu told the truth, going out to make money is not a shameful thing.
Who knows that Old Mrs Su would sat on the bench and started howling:
"What kind of wife are you! to instigate my elder son to do this kind of hard work, how can his leg bear it?"
This is not something she can control herself, Gu Chunzhu's good impression of Old Mrs Su instantly vanished.
She stood on her side and waited for her to howl enough : "If mother has money to lend us, we could survive this winter and Brother Wang will not have to work so hard."
"What money? where can I get it? You are just like your mother." Old Mrs Su stood up and glared at Gu Chunzhu, just like killing her father's enemy.
Gu Chunzhu couldn't help but laugh.
As expected, Old Mrs Su's concern was false.
"Mother, I have to cook now. I have no time to entertain you. Please help yourself out." Gu Chunzhu's smiled, forcing herself not to laugh.
Old Mrs Su stayed inside for a while.
She was so cold that her old bones shivered. After a few swearing words, she went back to her own home.
At lunch, Gu Chunzhu made sweet potato brown rice porridge. She reheated the meat bun that Su Wanqin didn't eat and cut them into half and gave to two children.
"Mother you eat too!" An An handed the meatbun back to her
Gu Chunzhu pressed her lips tightly and pushed the meat bun back to An An's mouth " Good girl, An An should eat it, Mother likes to eat porridge"
She then took a big sip of porridge and made a gulp.
An An began eating her meat buns with a smile. Gu Chunzhu thought of Hao's making trouble for the two children today. She rubbed An An's head and said, "When grandma comes, go hide in Dazhuang's house and wait for Mother to come back"
"Alright." An An nodded her head and leaned beside Gu Chunzhu, muttering in a low voice, "Grandma said that An An and her brother are money losing kids, are we?"
"Of course not. An An and XiaoCheng are mother's heart and treasure!"
She cuddled An An in her arms and saw that half of Xiaocheng's meat buns had not been eaten yet. She frowned slightly. "Xiaocheng, why don't you eat your meat buns?"
"I'll eat later in the afternoon."
XiaoCheng dropped his head and continued sipping his brown rice porridge.
Gu Chunzhu left him alone and waited for the children to finish eating. She had to wash the dishes and after washing the dishes, she had to calculate the money and collect the river shrimp. She was too busy and could only let the two children to go out and play.
At the town pier.
Su Wangqin, who was carrying rice, ran into an acquaintance, a businessman from the South who happened to disembark from the dock.
Seeing that Su Wangqin was lame, he didn't think much, but when he dropped the rice bag the merchant got a full look on his face.
The merchant rushed and pulled Su Wangqin's sleeve. His excited hands trembled, "will..."
"This master, forgive this worker for bumping into you.. He acquired his lame leg in the battlefield." The steward with a moustache assumed that Su Wangqin had hit someone, so he quickly came to make amends.
Seeing the merchant's face trembling,
and seeing him dressed well.
The steward was afraid that he would lose his job. He pointed at Su Wangqin's nose and said, "don't come tomorrow since you're so careless."
"When did I say he hit me?" The merchant glared at the man in charge and was very dissatisfied with the villains who bullied the good and feared the evil.
Su Wangqin's black eyes looked at the merchant, he shook his head.
The merchant was able to restrain his anger and calmly said to the steward, "this is my old friend. It's hard to avoid getting excited."
"So its the case." The steward quickly bowed his head to make amends and raised his shrewd eyes to peep at the relationship between merchants and Su Wangqin.
The merchant picked up a piece of silver from his purse and threw it to the steward. He said, "I'll take him to the teahouse to have a cup of tea. I'll return him to you later."
"Good, good!" The steward nodded quickly.
