Gu Zhihua looked gloomy and thought for a moment: "Dad, if it doesn't work out, I'll go to Huguang County and talk to my classmate Sun Dajie to put in a good word and ask him to help me beg the general's wife for mercy?"

Father Gu thought for a moment: "Can your classmate Sun Dajie help you speak?"

"It should be possible. I know him. Besides, he was the one who set the red thread for my marriage to Huahua. Now that I'm in this situation, he can't stay out of it either emotionally or rationally."

"Well, we have to go to Huguang County. However, the key to this matter still lies with Huahua."

"Dad, what you mean is...you won't let me go to Changping Village to find that poisonous woman to apologize, right?"

"Zhihua, a true man must be able to bend and stretch before he can stand between heaven and earth." Gu's father said.

Gu's mother added from the side: "I don't want you to apologize to that poisonous woman Huahua. She has taken the lives of two members of my Gu family. But in this situation, if we don't apologize, we are worried that the general's wife will continue to punish us."

, then our family will really have to live on the streets."

"Mom, didn't you say before that judging from this situation, the general's wife has stopped? Don't you plan to kill us all? In that case, from now on, let's just guard those fields and shops and live peacefully. I told you I'll go

Please ask Sun Dajie, so that the general’s wife can let us go..."

Father Gu interrupted Gu Zhihua: "Zhihua, you think too simplistically. Sun Dajie's weight is light. The source of this matter is still Huahua!"

"You can't let Huahua forgive you. This matter will never end. You never know when it will happen again. We will be like those sheep, whose wool will be sheared when we grow fat."

"No matter what we do in business, we don't feel at ease. We always feel that the newly earned things will be taken away by others."

Gu Zhihua was stunned and stood there, frowning and saying nothing.

Gu's mother stood up and came over to hold Gu Zhihua's left hand, "Zhihua, be obedient and go to Changping Village to admit your mistake to Huahua and give her a few words..."

Gu Zhihua smiled bitterly and said seriously: "Mom, I have already divorced her. This matter cannot be solved by admitting my mistake and coaxing her. Besides, Huahua returned to Gu's house by herself a while ago, and you locked her up in the house.

, I was not given food or drink, and my mouth was stuffed with shoe soles all night long, and my mouth was cracked and bleeding. If you were Huahua, would you forgive me, a so-called heartless man, so easily?"

Gu's mother was dumbfounded and froze in place speechless.

Father Gu put down the tea bowl, stood up and walked to Gu Zhihua, raising his hand and placing his hand on his son's shoulder.

"In order to keep the remaining property of the Gu family, and for you to be able to support your wife and children by working as an errand in the government office, you must lower your head."

"In view of what our Gu family did to Huahua before, simply apologizing is definitely not enough. Our Gu family must show sincerity,"

"When the time comes, I will accompany you to propose marriage to Huahua again..."

Gu Zhihua looked shocked, threw away Gu's father's hand, and shouted loudly, "Dad, there is no way she can marry me again! There is no way I can marry her again. The one I want to marry is my cousin, and we already have children..."

"Shut up!" Gu's father lowered his face and shouted angrily.

"You're not going here, you're not doing that, and you don't want to think about how our family ended up in this situation? If you're a bit desperate, just go back and think about it. I'll leave for Changping Village early tomorrow morning. You

If you still can't figure it out, then get out of here and leave the Gu family as soon as possible, and I will pretend that I never gave birth to your son!"

Father Gu walked away with a puff of his sleeves.

In the room, Gu Zhihua grabbed Gu's mother's sleeve: "Mom, please help me talk to dad. I would rather die than marry Huahua. The person I want to marry is my cousin. My cousin has given birth to me."

I'm so worried, and I'm pregnant with another child,

I also promised her that I would give her the title of a legitimate wife, but now you want me to break my promise to her again, how can this be okay?"

Gu's mother wiped her tears and said, "Zhihua, do you think I am happy in my heart? I have already accepted my heart as my grandson... Isn't this forcing me to do anything? We, as a family, need to eat and drink!"

"In the future, when Xin'er grows up, he will have to study for merit and fame, right? We have offended the general's wife, and your path is cut off. But our Xin'er and other grandchildren still have to take the exam for merit and fame. Don't you do it for yourself?

For your own sake, you also have to think about the children and grandchildren of our Gu family, right?"

Gu Zhihua's fingers slowly fell from the sleeves of Gu's mother's clothes.

"Shuhua, don't worry, I will make it clear to her later." Mother Gu couldn't bear to see her son's sad face.

"Shuhua is an understanding person. For the sake of Xin'er, the child in her belly, and our entire Gu family, I believe she can also understand you."

The subtext is that if Shuhua cannot understand and wants to make trouble, then she is ignorant of the general situation and not virtuous enough. The Gu family does not want such a daughter-in-law.

Gu Zhihua left the room with heavy steps, his eyes unfocused, like a walking zombie.

Shuhua covered her mouth, quietly stepped back from the corner, walked back to her room in one breath, closed the door, grabbed the tea bowl on the table and threw it to the ground.

Still unable to understand his hatred, he opened the closet again, took out the forehead wiping piece he had just made for Gu's mother, grabbed the scissors and cut it into pieces, threw it on the ground, and stepped on it hard, hard.

…

Changping Village.

Yang Ruoqing stopped Yang Huazhong, who was spending his own money to build bridges and pave roads, and handed over a banknote of one hundred taels, "Dad, use this money."

This is the money of the Gu family. It is used to build bridges and pave roads in Changping Village. This is the blessing of Gu Zhihua, the son-in-law.

Yang Huazhong didn't want it, but Yang Ruoqing insisted, "Dad, keep your money as a betrothal gift for Xiao An's wife."

Yang Huazhong smiled and said: "You underestimate your father and me too much. I have already prepared the money for Xiao An's gift!"

Yang Ruoqing joked: "I'm not looking down on you, but what if the condition of the girl's family is not worse than ours? Then you won't be able to buy a house for them in Qing'an County?"

Yang Huazhong thought for a moment, and that was true. He had inquired about the house prices in Qing'an County.

A simple small courtyard house in an average location only costs a hundred taels of silver to start.

If the location is good and there is a yard with two entrances, you can plant some flowers and plants in it, and you will need at least three hundred taels of silver to start.

"Hey, Xiao An doesn't know when he will get married. He is so old and has no features at all." Yang Huazhong accepted the banknote and sighed.

"Logically speaking, we, Xiao An, are not ugly either. We have to be tall and have errands, so how can we not please the girl's family? What the hell, your mother and I have to remind him every time he comes home.

They are all trying to make excuses, Qing'er, do you think Xiao An doesn't like girls?"

Yang Ruoqing was stunned for a moment and couldn't help laughing.

Laughing so hard that I almost lost my breath.

"Dad, you really dare to think about it. Don't say this to Xiao An, otherwise he will really get angry with you!"

"I'm in a hurry, it's almost 21st after the New Year!" Yang Huazhong said.

"The elder brother and the younger brother of your aunt, Fourteen, your aunt has dropped the word with your mother right now, and asked her to help keep an eye on it from now on, and there must be a suitable girl to keep an eye on first.

, as long as the two brothers turn sixteen, they have to talk about getting married immediately. There are only two years in between. But look at Xiao An’s unhurried and unhurried look. I’m afraid he will be like that for twenty years. I can’t
