Chapter 8 Agency
Li Rui went to invite a doctor to come over and check everyone's pulse one by one. If there is anything wrong, he can prescribe medicine. There is no doctor on the way to treat the illness, so it is safe to get a safe pulse in advance.
Other people have no major problems. The doctor specifically said that Grandpa Gu's body needs to be recuperated, and prescribed a prescription for Gu Lei to get the medicine. The old man was too sad.
It's no wonder, the two sons-in-law are dead, and the white-haired man sent the haired man, and the old man didn't fall down because of the Gu family and his grandson.
Gu Lei asked his mother for money, "Mom, give me the money, and I'll get the medicine for grandpa."
"I don't have enough money."
Gu Lin glanced at Li Yu who was standing not far away. The Li family spent money before.
Seeing his mother's hint, Gu Lei couldn't help but clenched his fists, his face flushed with anger, his chest heaved violently, and he wished he could strangle himself to death now.
"I have it, you grab a few more medicines, your grandfather's illness can't be delayed."
Aunt Gu took out her jewelry without hesitation.
When the Gu family came out, they only brought important things and banknotes, women's jewelry, and other things lost a lot. The second child of the concubines took the valuable books and other materials away in batches with the clansmen, and left the other convenient ones on the road for exchange. For silver.
Gu Lei didn't answer, but reached out to his mother, his face was dark and firm, and his eyes were a little cold.
"Give money."
He knew that his mother was rich, but she didn't take out any money, which was so disappointing.
My dear grandfather, your father-in-law is sick, you see what the Li family is doing, am I a jerk, asking the Li family to support me.
Seeing that his son was angry, Mrs. Gu Lin had to take out a bank note, and muttered, "It was all paid by the Li family in the past."
"Shut up, how can there be a mother like you, but you can put a pot of **** on your son's head. If your father-in-law is sick and you ask outsiders to take money, how can you say it? Your conscience is eaten by dogs."
Aunt Gu stretched out her hand and twisted her waist hard.
Painful Gu Lin let out a hiss.
Looking at Wang Shi and Li Yu with worry and fear, the mother and daughter were chatting and laughing, and ignored them at all.
Gu Lei snatched all the boxes in which his mother held the banknotes, turned around and left.
"Don't take it all away, Yue'er also needs money to buy some personal items."
Gu Lin immediately thought of her niece, but forgot about her son's plight.
"Do you still remember that you are the daughter-in-law of the Gu family? You are the Gu family after you die. You really disappointed me. No wonder grandma looks down on you. You are selfish and irresponsible."
Gu Lei turned his back to his mother, raised his head and took a deep breath, clenched his fists tightly, trying to suppress his turbulent emotions.
The words were very serious, his eyes were slightly red, and his face was filled with endless exhaustion and complete disappointment, which overwhelmed the last trace of longing in his heart.
It turns out that there are mothers who don't love their own children, but are very caring for other people's children, and will never look down on their own children.
I'm also stupid. I shouldn't expect any maternal love. Lin Yue is her biological child. I just picked it up as a tool to help her take care of her family status. I'm so stupid!
Gu Lin opened his mouth, but didn't say anything after all, as if he felt that his son was getting farther and farther away from her, and even the basic respect was gone.
Third Aunt Gu shook her head helplessly. There must be a limit to death. When her husband dies, she should listen to her son. She obviously has such an excellent son, but she still wants to protect a fine niece. The dog eats her brains.
Not wanting to interfere in their mother-son dispute, instead, he handed his own box to Gu Lei.
"Lei'er, that's all I have left. It's all your hard work inside and out, and I don't need the money. You can use it anyway. You can't let the Li family pay for it. It's not decent."
"Brother, here you are."
Gu Lei looked down at his younger brother, reached out to touch his head, hesitated for a while, and opened the box. Inside were all gold-studded jewellery, some of which had been worn by the third aunt, and were bought by the third uncle for her.
The man from the Gu family values love and responsibility. The third uncle and the third aunt are a loving couple who cannot tolerate others. Everyone in the family likes the third aunt, who is crisp, generous, and kind.
Looking at these familiar jewelry, they are all the friendship between her and the third uncle, and now they don't hesitate to use them as travel expenses.
Recalling the scene where his father and third uncle fell down, his hand holding the box trembled a little...
"Take it, people are more important than money, and your third uncle is in my heart."
Aunt Gu's eyes turned red when she mentioned her husband.
"I want to guard Gu's family for him, and guard your two children. I know what your third uncle is thinking about. I can't go against his wishes. He should blame me."
Aunt Gu smiled, with tears in her smile, her strength made people feel distressed.
Gu Lei raised his head and took a deep breath, afraid that tears would make him weak, he couldn't allow himself to be vulnerable.
"Lei'er, I'm a woman. I can't teach Brother Xin. I'll leave Brother Xin to you. You can teach your younger brother more. Just spread the word and he can do it."
Gu Lei turned around and bowed deeply to the third aunt, took his things and left without saying a word.
Brother Xin leaned over and snuggled into his mother's arms, his voice choked up: "Mother, brother is crying, I, I... miss dad, miss uncle and dad."
Aunt Gu hugged her son in her arms for a long time without saying a word, her body trembling slightly suppressing the unspeakable sorrow in her heart.
"Your uncle, your father, and your clan brothers are heroes. They died to protect the Gu family and save you. Don't forget to put incense sticks on them in the future."
"Um."
Thinking of her husband, Gu Lin covered her face and wept silently. Although their husband and wife had some conflicts and were not as loving as others, it was her support after all. Her natal family was exterminated, her husband died, and she became a widow. Migrant, living in the open air...
"Brother Xin, your uncle and the others are gone. Only your eldest brother and you two men are left from the Gu family. When you grow up, help your brother do what you can. Learn more and watch more from your Uncle Li. Speak, understand?"
"I remember, I want to support the Gu family together with my eldest brother."
Looking at his mother's tearful eyes, Brother Xin nodded vigorously, and raised his hand to gently wipe away her tears.
"Go and do some work for your sister."
"good."
In the evening, I ordered food from the restaurant for everyone to have a good meal. After eating, Li Yu beat the carriage in the yard.
Boss Li and the others are helping her. They bought a lot of materials at noon, enough for her to modify the carriage.
"How do you change this?"
"Installing the weapon, I have reserved the mechanism before, and I can install it as soon as I find the materials."
These three carriages all came out of the capital, and they have not broken down until now. They are all thanks to Li Yu. They were specially built by her and the craftsmen. They are very strong and have mechanisms.
"Look at the bottom, there is a space where weapons can be hidden. This cover is a whole piece, which is not easy to detect. There is a small mechanism here. This interlayer can put weapons to avoid inspection."
Li Yu's mechanism was learned twice in the past and present life. It is more sophisticated and ingenious, and the carpentry work in her hand is also beautiful. Except for the things that need blacksmithing, she can't do it by herself, and the rest is done by her.
"You are so powerful, I didn't realize there are so many mechanisms in this carriage."
"The carriage loaded with goods can also be covered with tarpaulin to avoid rain. The awning can be disassembled and installed, which is convenient and neat. When the mechanism is closed, the third carriage can sit people."
Li Yu played tricks on the mechanism, turning an ordinary carriage into an exquisite box, which can be folded and assembled, and disassembled at will.
Gu Lei looked at her with admiring eyes, and gave her a thumbs up with a look of admiration, "Yu'er, you are so awesome, with this ability, we will be even more powerful along the way."
Li Yu cocked his chin and raised his eyebrows with a proud face.
