Chapter 34 The identity of an elder is not a brick
“Xiaofeng, it was my fault in the past.”
The genius boy Gu Jingzhe clenched his hands tightly. He was so embarrassed that he kept counting down when he was asked to study for this person. My nephew's apology was simply more embarrassing than running away in the sun.
Nie Xiaofeng usually looked down upon this little uncle, but even more so since he learned that he wanted to trade his cousin Man'er for a future.
Both he and his mother are born in the year of coal and have dark hearts.
"Uncle, what's the matter?" Nie Xiaofeng exuded an aura of keeping strangers away from him.
Normally, Gu Jingzhe and Nie Xiaofeng hardly interact with each other in private school, and they don't say hello when they meet.
Nie Xiaofeng was born tall and mighty, while Gu Jingzhe was a frail scholar. Standing in front of Nie Xiaofeng, Gu Jingzhe felt like he was being crushed.
“I want to ask you to borrow fifty taels of silver.”
Gu Jingzhe lowered his head and spoke with difficulty.
"I can pay you back the interest!"
"I promise to pay it back within one year!"
"What do you want to pay back?" Nie Xiaofeng interrupted Gu Jingzhe.
“Oh, I know what my little uncle got in return.” Nie Xiaofeng drawled his voice, “I paid back by selling comics. I can’t make it out of the Zheng family, but with my little uncle’s ability, I might be able to join the Li family and the Wang family. , Zhang family. There is always someone who wants to buy a wife. When the time comes, you can give me two hundred taels. If you sell it, won't the money come in? "
"Speaking of which, uncle, you are really good at making money. You can make a lot of money from it, which is more profitable than my porcelain shop. My shop still needs costs. Your business of selling people has no cost.”
"You don't even have to give birth to a daughter yourself, you can just sell someone else's daughter. Tsk tsk tsk, my uncle's calculation is so wonderful!"
"I just don't know that the master of Wanliu Academy knows about my uncle. Will he still praise his uncle for his Qilin talent?"
Nie Xiaofeng caught Gu Jingzhe and burst into laughter.
On the one hand, it’s to vent their anger on Gu Baishuang and Man’er, and on the other hand, it’s for my own enjoyment.
He had long been looking for an opportunity to attack Gu Jingzhe. If Gu Jingzhe hadn’t taken advantage of his uncle’s reputation, if he had touched Gu Jingzhe, his mother would have fallen into a whirlpool of fame. He really wanted to blow this away with one punch. Cheap uncle's head.
Gu Jingzhe blushed under Nie Xiaofeng's continuous spray.
"Oh, the sun is coming out in the west. Uncle, you will blush too. It's rare, it's rare, tsk tsk tsk!"
Nie Xiaofeng continued to use the skills of the Yin Yang family.
Gu Jingzhe usually always has his nostrils turned upward. He has long wanted to confront Gu Jingzhe head-on. How could he let go of the opportunity now?
Yesterday he and his mother went to Gu's house in Qinghewan and found out why Gu Jingzhe wanted to borrow fifty taels of silver.
Such a deceptive thing can only be made by the old widow Tong Dajiao.
The eldest aunt also said that Widow Tong has gotten better. In his opinion, someone who can raise Gu Jingzhe and sell his niece to gain a future cannot be vindicated.
I don’t know what’s wrong with holding it in. Only kind-hearted people like my eldest aunt are confused.
What made him even more unhappy was that despite his efforts, his mother threw fifty taels of silver to the Gu family's second wife.
According to him, Gu Yaozu should not be saved, and Widow Tong’s nest of bad bamboos should be thrown into the pot.
"Little uncle, you are so capable, why do you still care about borrowing money from me? Don't forget that the Nie and Gu families have already severed their relationship. They broke off the relationship at my grandpa's funeral. Didn't you ever read the sentence "It's not food that comes from a sigh of relief"? I'm afraid that if I lend you money, your integrity will be stained," Nie Xiaofeng said.
Gu Jingzhe raised her head with red eyes and said to Nie Xiaofeng: "Why do you have to ridicule me? I am your uncle after all."
Gu Jingzhe thought to herself, like Nie Xiaofeng who only grows taller and has no talent. He is a wise nephew, and Gu Jingzhe is condescending if he wants to speak to him.
Who would be willing to suffer such ridicule if he were not desperate?
After all, he is a young man and lacks self-cultivation. If Nie Xiaofeng stabs him a few times, he will not be able to bear it anymore.
"Hey, now I know you are an elder. Why didn't you think that you were an elder when you sold Man'er? Why don't you think you are my elder when you turn your nose up at me on weekdays? The identity of an elder is not a brick. You can move it however you want. "< br>
"You are now borrowing money from everywhere like a grandson, so don't give me the authority of your elders."
The story of Gu Jingzhe borrowing money from the private school has spread widely, and naturally Nie Xiaofeng also has Hear.
It’s better if you can’t borrow it. Gu Jingzhe now knows how bad his reputation is.
But it doesn’t matter, anyway, the eldest aunt said that the black-hearted widow no longer allowed Gu Jingzhe to study.
"Xiaofeng, you, you are going too far."
"If you don't want to borrow it, then I won't borrow it. Why would you say such ugly words." Gu Jingzhe was furious for a long time after being bullied by Nie Xiaofeng.
"I'm just bullying you. Why, the person who borrowed the money still wants to be an uncle, even if you are my uncle."
Nie Xiaofeng saw the heat of sarcasm It was almost done, I raised my feet and walked away with a happy face.
Anyway, this little uncle will never be seen in the private school again, and Nie Xiaofeng is not afraid of offending him.
Looking at Nie Xiaofeng's leaving figure, Gu Jingzhe fell back angrily, her eyes red.
At this time, he wanted to be a scholar, pass the examination, go to Beijing to gain fame, and see who would dare to look down on him.
Thinking of this, frustration struck, because Tong Huaqiong no longer allowed him to study. In addition to borrowing money from the private school today, he also had to say goodbye to his wife.
Gu Jingzhe, an ambitious young genius, burst into tears at the thought of leaving private school and living alone with his parents.
"Third brother, why are you crying?"
Gu Dashu came to the private school and walked around for several times before he found Gu Jingzhe under a locust tree in the backyard of the private school.
Gu Jingzhe leaned against the locust tree and cried heartbroken.
Gu Dashu thought he was going to hang himself.
“Third brother, don’t think too hard, just go home and farm.”
Gu Dashu stepped forward to support Gu Jingzhe.
After all, they were from the same mother, and he didn’t want anything to happen to Gu Jingzhe.
It’s okay if Gu Dashu doesn’t dissuade him, but the more he dissuades Gu Jingzhe, the harder he cries.
“Don’t act like you’re going down from Shangdao Mountain to the sea of fire. My mother and Taohua have gone to the town to set up stalls and sell cakes. Are you being wronged by farming?”
Gu Dashu is a little irritable. , punched Gu Jingzhe twice on the back.
He didn't study, and he lived well.
"Mother, I'm sorry, mother."
Gu Jingzhe couldn't help but feel sad when she heard Gu Dashu mentioned that Tong Huaqiong was selling cakes in the town.
As a widowed mother, it is not easy for her to live with her brothers and sisters.
Yesterday he saw his mother shouting hard across the pastry garden, holding a plate and leading passers-by to try the cakes in order to sell them.
My mother never even left the village, but she started to make money in order to survive.
He used to think that he was the hope of the whole family, and only he could make his mother live a good life.
Now because of my greed, I owe money to the Zheng family, so my mother, a widow, has to show her face and sell cakes.
The more I think about him, the more uncomfortable I feel!
"Second brother, do you think everything I did to study was wrong?" The genius boy finally became confused.
Gu Dashu thought for a while and said in a low voice: "I don't understand the truth. I don't know whether what you did is right or not. I only know that if Yaozu is sent away, we will no longer be brothers. In the past few days, I finally realized that I must The mood and situation of my sister-in-law when my son was sent away, I felt that I was so insignificant before that I even encouraged you to have a relationship with the Zheng family."
Gu Jingzhe raised her head and looked at Gu Dashu.
This is the second brother he has always looked down on, the lazy second brother, who can actually express such a sentiment.
Is it possible that Gu Jingzhe really did something wrong?
"I haven't raised any money. I wonder how much the second brother has raised?" Gu Jingzhe didn't dare to look into Gu Dashu's eyes. If Yaozu was really sent away, the second brother would probably kill him directly.
"I came to you just to talk to you about this."
"Mom has already earned enough fifty taels of silver, and she is willing to return it to the Zheng family."
Gu Dashu patted him. Gu Jingzhe's shoulders.
“What, mother can earn fifty taels of silver?”
Gu Jingzhe’s expression was like lightning.
