With space in hand, who dares to mess with the villain's stepmother?

Chapter 39 039. Our good intentions

I don’t know why, but there is clearly a cooperative relationship between them. But why is he so afraid of her now? It seems that since the one who is right in the end is Mrs. Gu every time they disagree, he has become accustomed to listening to her!

Alas! It’s really hopeless. He laughed at himself.

After that, Xiao Mu went to work, and Gu Xiaoxiao locked the doors and windows and drove the carriage home.

It was getting late, so she hurried home.

After dinner, Gu Xiaoxiao chatted with Zhou Zeyun in the courtyard and told him what happened today. At the end of the story, he looked angry and said, "Are women inferior to men? Why should a son be treated as a treasure after he is born?"

, after giving birth to a daughter, he doesn’t even care about her life or death!”

Although she appears extremely calm on the outside, she is actually very unhappy about this kind of thing in her heart!

She glanced at Zhou Zeyun and saw him smiling and drinking tea, looking as gentle as jade.

Gu Xiaoxiao originally thought that when she had enough money, she would prepare good tea at home. Although the tea now is not very good, it still satisfies her desire to enjoy life!

Seeing that Zhou Zeyun had no other expression, she continued: "As for the two elders of the Zhou family, I don't know what they think. Is the second son not as good as the eldest son? Why is he so different to you and Zhou Weijie?!

"As soon as she mentioned this, she felt really unworthy for Zhou Zeyun!

Zhou Zeyun paused for a moment while holding the tea cup, then hid the strange emotion in his eyes and continued drinking tea.

Yes, why is there such a big difference?

He didn't feel sad, but the fragments that flashed through his mind intermittently after detoxification made him think more.

Before, he only thought that his body had not recovered yet, so he kept having those hallucinations, but now that his body has been getting stronger and stronger for so long, the hallucinations have become more and more serious, and occasionally he will have severe headaches.

He can only pay more attention to those fragments of memories that do not belong to him, and want to explore why this is the case!

He had also thought before, why did his parents treat him like this? Even if he gave them all the money he earned outside to please them, he would not be able to get a little pity from them.

But the eldest brother can let them cherish him so much without doing anything!

He only thought it was because of his second son's identity that he was disliked, but now he felt that something was wrong. He couldn't explain why it was wrong. Maybe it was because Gu Xiaoxiao's words made him too suspicious!

Gu Xiaoxiao naturally noticed the subtle changes in him, but she just thought that her words aroused Zhou Zeyun's sad mood again.

Also, no one can really let go of the pain of his original family! He just didn't want to worry himself so he didn't show it! Gu Xiaoxiao thought. While he was scolding himself for speaking so freely, he felt even more sorry for Zhou Zeyun.

.

Zhou Zeyun glanced at her, put down his teacup, picked up another teacup, poured a cup of tea for Gu Xiaoxiao, and said warmly: "Calm down, this world is like this, and we can't change it."

Hearing this, Gu Xiaoxiao raised the corners of his mouth slightly, raised his eyebrows and said proudly: "I can't change this world, but I can try my best to change the fate of people who are poisoned by this world!"

Zhou Zeyun also raised his eyebrows, not quite understanding what she meant.

Gu Xiaoxiao said firmly: "Just wait and see! In three days, I will definitely 'rob' that woman of her freedom!"

Zhou Zeyun smiled and said nothing more. He knew that what Gu Xiaoxiao decided would be done!

Then Gu Xiaoxiao suddenly thought of something and said: "I plan to open a pharmacy in the town. Now I asked Xiao Mu to help find the store. It's not bad!"

Zhou Zeyun was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Gu Xiaoxiao to say this to him.

Before, she would never take the initiative to tell him anything she had to do outside. She never told him about Shiweixuan and Tiantianzhai, nor about buying a mountain to build a medicine store. He only learned about these from daily clues and other people's mouths.

of.

Of course he would not interfere with her in these matters, but he was suddenly informed proactively, which felt really good!

Gu Xiaoxiao didn't realize that he didn't know when he started, but he gradually wanted to tell Zhou Zeyun about everything. Whether it was simply telling him, or asking him to give his opinion, in short, he kept to himself in the subtle influence of life.

His temper gradually changed!

Of course, she didn't think her words were strange at this time. Looking at Zhou Zeyun's stunned look, she raised her hand and waved it in front of his eyes, "Hey! Zhou Zeyun? Did you hear me?"

Zhou Zeyun came back to his senses, coughed slightly in embarrassment, and replied: "Yes, I heard you!" After a pause, he reminded: "Opening a drug store will be more or less troublesome, so be careful!"

Gu Xiaoxiao knew what he meant. Drug stores and medicinal materials, things that are closely related to human life, will always cause some trouble.

For example, being taken advantage of by unscrupulous and well-intentioned people, taking the blame for personal secrets, or some famous medical incidents.

In short, it is easy to make money, and it is also easier to be tricked. There are too many things that can go wrong, and most of them will be difficult for people to guard against, so the staff in the store must be trusted by you!

Gu Xiaoxiao thought like this and regretted letting Xiao Mu recruit people. Ability is part of it, but the most important thing is character!

According to past experience, it is indeed easy for Xiao Mu to meet people with good abilities, but he is really unpredictable, and he recruits a lot of "rat shit"!

At that time, you still have to observe more by yourself and choose carefully!

Thinking about it, Gu Xiaoxiao looked at Zhou Zeyun again, raised his eyebrows, his eyes were full of smiles, and he lightly raised the corners of his mouth and teased: "Are you... are you caring about me?"

Zhou Zeyun blushed, picked up the tea cup and turned away, shyly not looking at her, sipping the tea silently, and whispered: "Yes."

The base of the ears has already turned red.

As an agent, Gu Xiaoxiao had a very good ear, and he heard Zhou Zeyun's answer that sounded like a mosquito.

He was stunned for a moment, then a smile spread across his lips, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes under the moonlight were filled with starlight.

This scene came into Zhou Zeyun's eyes, and he turned to look at her.

The autumn wind at night messed up the hair on her forehead, but Zhou Zeyun felt that it was not her hair that was messy, but her heart!

He looked at her and smiled softly unconsciously.

In late autumn, the weather is a little cold, but at this time, their hearts are very warm!

On the second day, Gu Xiaoxiao planned to go to the drug store to take a look. Now that the store has been ordered, if the drug store can supply the goods in time, she will open the drug store as soon as possible.

Since the half of the mountain near the village is occupied by medicine farms and medicine fields, people have now carved a path even deep in the mountains and forests.

From the dividing line of thorns and vines to the foot of the mountain here, the villagers are working in an orderly manner.

Qian Bin is looking after the late-stage preparation of patent medicines in the drug store, and Sun Sheng is supervising everyone outside the drug store. Sun Sheng is also capable, and he is quite handy these days. There is no need to report the matters in the drug store to Gu Xiaoxiao

Qian Bin and Sun Sheng will study and decide on small matters.

On the other side of the medicine field, Aunt Zhao and Chunhua were also leading other medicine farmers. Originally, Aunt Zhao thought that if she couldn't do it, she would tell Madam Gu to quit, but she didn't expect that the more she worked here, the more energetic she would be. She was better than her.

Growing crops makes me happy, especially working with a group of familiar people. The atmosphere is lively and chatting while working, and the atmosphere is particularly good.

Sun Shengniang also took a few aunts to provide meals for this group of people in the medicine shop and did the logistics, which was also a pleasure.

In a harmonious environment, everyone is happy!

Gu Xiaoxiao took Rhubarb with him and looked at the scenery along the way, not in a hurry.

As soon as it entered the forest, Rhubarb disappeared without a trace. Gu Xiaoxiao knew that it must have gone to its mother's grave again!

I don't care about it anymore.

When she walked outside the medicine store, she saw several familiar figures sneaking around there.

The corner of her mouth curled up, and she could guess their purpose of blocking her here.

It’s really annoying that some people have too much guts!

Then she raised her feet and walked towards them. Those people naturally saw her, and their whole bodies suddenly became tense and a little scared. But when they thought of their purpose of coming this time, they tried to suppress the fear in their hearts and deliberately straightened their backs.

He bravely looked at Gu Xiaoxiao, who approached them with a sneer.

Gu Xiaoxiao stood in front of them, crossed her arms and stared at them. After a moment, she slowly said, "Tell me! What's the matter?" She asked symbolically.

The second elder of the Zhou family and Wu Huilan looked at each other. The three of them did not want to be the one who stood out!

In the end, Wu Huilan was defeated. As a junior, she would not be able to defeat those two.

After hesitating for a long time, he said: "Well, Gu Xiaoxiao, why do you say that Zhou Zeyun and the four boys are all named Zhou? You have a good life, and you don't want to help a bunch of your own family, but you let outsiders take charge of such a big industry.

!”

Gu Xiaoxiao frowned and plucked his ears, and said with a look of disgust: "It's been so long, and you still use the excuse of 'one's own family' to get some benefits?! Outsiders? Aren't you? It's because you are not smart.

Okay, but what I said is not clear enough! Our family and you have never been the same family. We all know how you treat us, so why bother pretending here! Don’t you find it disgusting?!"

After saying a few words, the three of them all looked extremely ugly.

Mother Zhou gave Wu Huilan a fierce look. She is a waste who fails to succeed but fails to succeed!

Then she looked at Gu Xiaoxiao coldly and said: "No matter what, the blood relationship is unbreakable. Zhou Zeyun is my son. No matter how unwilling you are to admit it, there is nothing you can do about it!" She paused and then said: "And we

I'm here for your own good. It's more secure to leave this property in the hands of family members. It's easy for outsiders to have other bad intentions. We don't mind coming to help you. We can also take care of money, but you don't want to.

You have failed our good intentions!”

Hearing this, Gu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but be amused. Seeing that their faces seemed to have "come to grab money" written all over their faces, they still said things that were for her own good. There was really no shamelessness, only shamelessness.

Face!

Are you treating her as a fool? You think she will believe their lies!

She sneered and said: "Oh~, I'm here to help, just take care of the money! It's not impossible." As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the three people lit up, but then they heard her say again: "But... if...

I said, I am short of a thousand taels of funds now, can you help me fill this hole? Once filled, I will consider letting you enter the medicine store, how about it? "

Naturally, she didn’t have a hole in her funds, but she just said that on purpose. She knew Zhou’s mother’s Achilles’ heel was money, so she just used money to stimulate her!

And Zhou's mother was indeed as Gu Xiaoxiao thought. All she could think about was that Gu Xiaoxiao asked her to pay so much money! Her last words of "considering" were no longer heard!

His eyes widened, "What? Ask me to pay? Don't even think about it! You should be the one who respects our money!"

Gu Xiaoxiao laughed and said, "Hey! The real person has been revealed so quickly! Don't talk about filial piety or not. Zhou Zeyun and I are both fatherless and motherless. Who do we need to be filial to?!"

"You! You... are so unfilial! How can you say such a thing!" Zhou's mother was so angry that she rolled her eyes and almost lost her temper.

Gu Xiaoxiao rolled his eyes and asked again: "By the way, is Zhou Weijie okay at home? Oh, I haven't seen him for a long time. It couldn't be that my foot was too heavy. He is still there now."

You can't get out of bed!" She covered her mouth, pretending to be surprised, but in fact she was asking questions knowingly.

The kick she suffered back then will not heal in a year or a half! This refers to those men with strong physiques. Judging from Zhou Weijie's body, it may take two or three years to heal!

Then he crossed his arms and warned coldly: "If you are still restless and want to disturb my life and Zhou Zeyun's life, I will have to let you lie on the bed with Zhou Weijie! Don't blame me for not warning you, if you do it again

This time, I don’t have the patience to talk so much nonsense! Do you understand?”

The eyes she looked at them had no warmth and were as cold as ice, which made the three of them feel terrified and they did not dare to say anything more.

Zhou's father never said a word from the beginning, hiding behind Zhou's mother like a turtle.

Seeing Gu Xiaoxiao's appearance at this time, I felt that I really shouldn't have listened to Zhou's mother and came to have her ideas. Now this Gu Xiaoxiao is no longer the easy-to-coax person before. Now she is really scary!

He didn't want to stay here anymore, so he dragged Zhou's mother to leave.

Zhou's mother was so angry that she held her chest, as if there was a big stone in her heart, and she couldn't breathe. Although she was unwilling, she could only let Zhou's father pull her away.

When Wu Huilan saw that the two elders were gone, she quickly followed them and left.

These two elders are really useless! They still have the nerve to glare at her! She cursed in her heart.

This little episode didn't cause much disturbance in Gu Xiaoxin's mind. After the obstruction left, she walked into the medicine store comfortably, walking softly, walking around, checking the ripe medicinal materials that had just been picked, and...

There is no post-processing, and there is still a little bit of soil on the roots.

She looked at the quality of the medicinal materials and found them to be very good!

Then I went to Qian Bin to find out about the output of medicinal materials.

Now the first batch of medicinal materials has been completed, and the second batch is also being cultivated and will soon be ready for harvesting and processing.

The two elders of the Zhou family are looking for trouble again. Gu Xiaoxiao is speechless. If her temper at the end of the world had been left alone, the family would have stopped breathing! Her temper is much better now. Is it because she is retiring for old age?!

Vote, collect, comment, and recommend a one-stop shop~Hehe~
