Gu Qingyao raised her brows when she saw the two of them working. But she was not too surprised because her father was at home.
In this family, the two of them were most afraid of her father.
Sometimes, her father could not control the two of them, mainly because it was counterproductive to control them too much. Especially since Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing were not smart people at all. They were a little stupid and were extremist worshippers of poor farmers. They had always been proud of being poor farmers.
In this era, status was too important. In the past, the big landlords and capitalists were all members of the upper class. Ordinary people dreamed of becoming like them but could never achieve it. Suddenly, these people's properties were confiscated and they were thrown into the dust. The mentality of hating the rich made them crazily support this policy. Zhang Xiaohui and her daughter were the typical examples.
Dad was afraid that if he pushed the two of them too far, Zhang Xiaohui would report Grandpa and Grandma. There was no reason these days. Once Zhang Xiaohui reported them, no matter what Grandpa and Grandma did wrong, they would be in trouble.
Nowadays, it was common for sons to report their fathers, let alone daughters-in-law.
Gu Qingyao ignored the two of them and greeted Gu Yunshen. "Father, I'm going to cook."
She was about to send the things back to her room when Gu Ruoqing rushed over. "What did you buy? Did Mo Beihan buy you something good again? "
As he spoke, his tone was filled with jealousy.
The Mo family and the Gu family had always been on good terms. Mo Beihan and the Gu family were especially close. Since young, Mo Beihan liked to buy things for Gu Qingyao. When he grew up and had money, he often bought things for her. He did not forget to send her good things when he went out.
How could Gu Ruoqing not be jealous?
Gu Qingyao rolled her eyes. "What does it have to do with you? Auntie Jiang's health is not good. Brother Beihan is leaving soon. He bought some cloth and wool and asked me to help them make some clothes for winter. Why do you care so much? "
Gu Ruoqing's eyes brightened. "Wool? Cloth? I want it too! "
She immediately reached out and wanted to take the cloth bag in Gu Qingyao's hand. Gu Qingyao stepped back angrily. "What are you doing?"
"Is your Auntie Jiang sick again recently?" Gu Yunshen's voice suddenly cut in. Gu Ruoqing glanced at Gu Yunshen and did not dare to be presumptuous anymore.
Gu Qingyao thought for a while and said, "I'm not sure either. Anyway, Brother Beihan said that she doesn't seem to be in good health and needs to rest. After the busy farming season, Auntie Jiang is taking care of the two children alone at home and is exhausted. The food hasn't been distributed yet and the house is almost out of food. Luckily, Brother Beihan came back and bought some food."
Jiang Yingqiu's health had been damaged when she was young. Her husband had run away, her eldest son had died, and her daughter-in-law had run away. She had to work hard to raise three children. It would be strange if she wasn't exhausted.
To be able to raise these children in such a time of famine was already very impressive.
Gu Yunshen said, "I have some herbs at my place. If you have time, send some to her. Every time after the busy farming season, your Auntie Jiang will fall sick."
Gu Qingyao nodded. "Yes!"
Gu Ruoqing pursed her lips when she heard this. "He's a pauper. What's there to be proud of?"
After she finished speaking, she squatted aside again to wash the mushrooms. Zhang Xiaohui also pursed her lips when she heard this. She was full of disdain.
That's right. The two of them looked down on Mo Beihan.
