Mrs. Liu’s heart skipped a beat when she heard this. In these two years, she had been bugging Mrs. Guo a lot. Her life would be difficult if she were demoted to a concubine.
At the thought of this, she quickly kneeled and apologized, “Mother, 1 only muddled because of Zishan’s marriage. Don’t take it to heart. I won’t dare do it again.”
Gu Zishan immediately went forward and shook Madam Qiao’s arm, acting coquettishly, “Grandma, for the sake of your granddaughter, please give my mother another chance.”
“That’s right. Grandma, please give my mother another chance. She definitely won’t dare do it again.” Gu Chengye quickly echoed.
Seeing this, Madam Qiao snorted coldly and said, “For the sake of the two children, I will give you one last chance.
“If you do it again, you can return to being a concubine. Maybe when your status is lower, you’ll be able to see better.”
“No, I definitely won’t do this again.” Mrs. Liu hurriedly nodded.
“As the saying goes, it’s easy to avoid the death penalty, but it’s hard to escape punishment. You’ll switch places with Mrs. Guo and cook a month’s worth of meals as a punishment.”
Even if Mrs. Liu was internally unhappy, she nodded and said, “1 will remember this.”
“Quickly set the table.”
When Mrs. Liu heard this, she immediately turned around and went out. The others had seen enough of the show and immediately followed to prepare the dishes.
“Son, the wound on your face won’t leave a scar, right?” Madam Qiao looked at Father Gu.
“It’s fine. Chengrui said that the wound wasn’t deep. After it’s healed, it’ll be fine after applying a month’s worth of scar removal cream.”
“That’s good. She’s really too much, getting more and more outrageous. You can’t spoil her anymore.”
“I know.” When Father Gu said this, he told her about the vermicelli. “Mother, brother, I’m thinking of using a portion of the white sweet potato to make vermicelli or turn it into dry powder. Those two things can be dried and stored for a long time. 1 heard it wouldn’t be a problem to keep them for two or three years. What do you think?”
After that, he briefly explained how to make vermicelli from white sweet potatoes.
“You two brothers can discuss it; I’ll go and eat dinner.” Madam Qiao got up and sat at the dining table.
Second Uncle Gu hesitated for a moment before saying, “Brother, from what you’ve said, if we were to turn white sweet potatoes into vermicelli, some parts might be wasted. Let’s take out 500 pounds of white sweet potatoes and try it out before anything.”
“Alright, let’s give it a try.”
After the meal, Father Gu called Gu Chengye and Gu Zishan to the study room. “Now that there are no outsiders, you can tell me what you think of Hu Chun. Is there a need for this marriage? If there isn’t, I won’t waste my breath anymore.”
“I think Hu Chun is a good person. As long as nothing unexpected happens, his future will be fine.
“However, 1 heard he has a pair of younger siblings, and their family conditions are poor now.
“So…
“It all depends on what Zishan thinks.
“If she would be willing to go through two years of suffering together and bet on a good man for a good life, she should marry him. Otherwise, it isn’t like she doesn’t have another choice.”
Father Gu looked at Gu Zishan and asked, “Zishan, what about you? What do you think?
“But 1 must make it clear in advance; don’t be too ambitious. Our family’s situation isn’t really better compared to an ordinary farmer’s. At most, you can get married to a son from a rich family like Ziqiu’s husband, who doesn’t have great ambitions.”
“I…” When Gu Zishan said this, she raised her head and hesitated, asking, “Father, is Hu Chun really as good as you say?”
“He’s better than the other villagers anyway. At least he’s literate and skilled in martial arts. He’s also in charge of about a thousand people now.” Father Gu said.
As for Hu Chun’s character, he had already repeated it more than ten times and was too lazy to say more..
