Chapter 91 Gossip
It's really ironic that Li Chunmei only calls her name in a nice voice in front of her father.

"Chunmei, go away. I'm going to beat that damn girl to death today!" Li Qiaojun took out a feather duster from the shelf, angrily pushed his sister away, and walked towards his daughter.

Li Tianjiao stood still, looking directly at her crazy father in front of her. She was just traveling with the Gu family, so why did he beat her to death?
Li Qiaojun raised the feather duster in his hand but failed to bring it down. The fearless look in the little girl's eyes was so much like her dead mother's.

Time seemed to stand still, and Li Ji and Li Hua at the table dared not breathe.

My eldest brother is such a blockhead. The little girl went out and brought back so many good things. If I had known that she had the ability to curry favor with others, I should have let her play more with the girl from the Gu family.

Li Chunmei's mind and eyes are full of benefits.

She stepped forward and snatched the feather duster from her eldest brother's hand. "Well, the kids are at home during the summer vacation and have nothing to do. What's wrong with going out to play? Is it worth making such a fuss?"

He couldn't bring himself to hit his daughter, and the stalemate was no solution. Li Qiaojun went down the steps given by his sister, turned around and left in a sullen manner.

"Oh my! Look at all the high-end stuff! Where did you go this time to bring so many valuable things?"

As soon as Li Qiaojun left, Li Chunmei immediately changed her tone and snatched the gold bracelet from her niece's hand and put it on.

Li Ji and Li Hua came over happily to grab the things, hehe~ they were all theirs.

Li Tianjiao hid the bag in her right hand behind her back and said, "I bought this suit for my dad. You are all here."

As she said that, she threw the bag on the ground, turned around and went upstairs carrying her father's clothes.

Zhao Zhengguo, who had difficulty walking, could only stare blankly, with no one helping him to go over and take a look.

The next day, Li Tianjiao went to her new home again. The house had already been decorated, and the next step was to buy furniture, beds and curtains.

She went to the village chief's house to request someone from the town to come and inspect the house, but the village chief said that the house had already been inspected and the money had been deposited into the construction company's card, which happened just last Friday.

Li Tianjiao happily thanked the village chief and went back to her aunt's house. She should have discussed buying furniture with her father.

She waited at home for a whole day but no one came back. In the middle of the night, she heard her father knocking on the door. Just as she was about to get up from the bed, she heard Li Ji's voice.

"Uncle, where did you get that drink? It stinks!"

Li Ji was too lazy to lend him a hand. He opened the door and turned back to sleep.

Li Tianjiao was very conflicted about whether she should go out and help.
Forget it, Dad is at home anyway, nothing will happen anyway, she thought about it and closed her eyes and fell asleep.

The next day, Li Tianjiao got up early and went to Nanxing's house. She couldn't expect her father to pay for the furniture, so she had 5,000 yuan in her pocket from selling ginseng last time, so she bought some cheap furniture, even second-hand ones would be fine.

At the door, we happened to see Uncle Lin sitting on the village chief's tricycle and waiting for someone. Then Wang Dana and Aunt Qing came out, followed by Nanxing.

She politely called out to everyone one by one, and finally stood next to her best sister, "Nanxing, are you and your family going into the city?"

Gu Nanxing nodded. "My dad passed the fourth subject test yesterday and got his driver's license. He said he wanted to go look at cars today."

This is a good relationship. Li Tianjiao smiled and went into the city with them.

Gu Nanxing guessed that Tianjiao was in town to look at furniture, so he got out of the car with her when they reached the city center. Dad had already agreed on the car he wanted last night, and today he was just here to have a look and pay the bill.

The two came to the furniture store. Li Tianjiao preferred second-hand furniture because she didn't have much money.

The bed had to be brand new, so she picked out two iron beds that were 1.8 meters wide. There were only two rooms in the house, so there wasn't an extra one.

I couldn't find a sofa or coffee table in good condition even after searching around the second-hand market.

Seeing her entangled look, Gu Nanxing pulled her upstairs without saying a word, "Don't look at it anymore, I'll buy you a new one. Congratulations on your new home."

Li Tianjiao wanted to refuse, but the offer was too good to refuse. She chose blue gauze double-layer blackout curtains for her room, and simple single-piece curtains for the living room and other areas.

She doesn't have to buy a TV, but she must have a washing machine. She is tired of washing clothes at her aunt's house.

Buy a wardrobe, desk, stool, kitchen utensils and dishes, and your pockets will be cleaner than your face!

Knowing Tianjiao's difficulties, Gu Nanxing paid for a truck for her out of his own pocket and asked workers to move the furniture onto the truck.

Before leaving, Gu Nanxing called her mother and told her that she and Tianjiao were going home first.

On the other side, Gu Wenlin drove his pickup truck onto the road tremblingly. The big pickup truck was supposed to be very stylish, but it was moving slower than a turtle!
No one in the car dared to breathe. Old Man Gu, who was sitting in the passenger seat, was sweating profusely as he clutched the armrest. It was too hot in the middle of summer...

Old Mrs. Wang in the back seat and Zhou Xiaoqing, who was holding Xuanxuan, also held the armrests tightly.

The talkative old lady Wang did not dare to scold her son. She urged him to drive faster, fearing that he would panic and have an accident.

It took nearly two hours to get home, a journey of about ten minutes.

Gu Nanxing and Lu Yuzhu came back from Tianjiao's house to put the furniture away. When they reached the door, they saw their grandfather and his family wiping their sweat and getting out of the car, their legs still shaking from stepping on the ground.

"Oh~ Uncle Lin bought a car. It's so cool!" Lu Yuzhu walked up to greet him with a smile, looking at the pickup truck from left to right.

Old Master Gu didn't want to pay attention to anyone at this moment. He took out his key and walked into the yard through the door.

Gu Nanxing stepped forward to help his mother, helped her out of the car and then carried Xuanxuan.

The little guy leaned listlessly in his sister's arms. Seeing his father getting out of the car, he couldn't help complaining, "Sister, I will never ride in Dad's car again. Not only does he drive slowly, but he also brakes suddenly from time to time. I'm going to vomit."

Phew~ Lu Yuzhu couldn't help laughing. She knew that Uncle Lin had just obtained his driver's license, but she didn't expect that one day he would be complained by his own son.

Seeing his father glaring at him, Gu Nanxing quickly picked him up and ran into the house.

Lu Yuzhu also wanted to go back to decorate her room and waved goodbye to her.

The news of the Gu family buying a car spread throughout the village within a few days. People with nothing to do came over after dinner to join in the fun. They said congratulations, but they were a little jealous in their hearts.

"The Gu family has become rich. This year they are building a villa and buying a car. Hey, how do you think they make so much money?" The famous gossipy women gathered under the big banyan tree at the entrance of the village to chat.

The woman in the red plaid apron replied, "I heard that Old Man Gu dug up some ginseng in the mountains and sold it for quite a bit of money."

"What kind of ginseng is so valuable?"

"Who knows."

"Gu Wenlin was tricked into jail. In my opinion, he must have been secretly making some dirty money outside."

The more they talked, the worse it got. Everyone had a hard life before, but Mr. Gu treated people for free and gave them medicine. He was still a good man.

Nowadays, people use dirty money to build big houses and drive nice cars. Who can resist slandering them?

Old Mrs. Wang and her daughter-in-law are now working in the fields, and people they meet on the road look at them strangely.

The old gossips in the village became increasingly hostile towards the Gu family.

Grandma Lu and Old Lady Wang were close friends. Occasionally, she would come to Gu's house to chat with her good sisters and tell them about the random speculations people had about her family every day.
