Chapter 194: Vent My Spleen To Enjoy My Engagement (1)
They took more than two hours to deal with Gu Yunshuang . Then she drank her medicine and slept .
Gu Conghua’s medical skills were fairly good . When he took her pulse, he discovered that she had suffered more than one miscarriage .
The Gu family was feeling down and it was awkward for Mo Beihan to linger . Gu Qingyao was not in the mood, so he did the cooking . He consoled Gu Qingyao before he left . “Be good and take care of your younger aunt first . That’s the most crucial . If you want revenge, Elder Brother Beihan will find an opportunity for you . Do you understand?”
Gu Qingyao pursed her lips angrily but still nodded .
When she saw that he was about to leave, Gu Qingyao caught hold of his sleeve . “Have lunch with us before you leave! You cooked this meal anyway…”
Mo Beihan laughed and patted her head . “Why stand on ceremony with me?”
Mo Beihan did not stay for lunch . It was past noon when Gu Qingyao called her grandparents over to eat . Only then did Wen Ruyu wipe her tears and enter the kitchen .
Lunch was maize porridge and the sorghum bread that Gu Qingyao had made earlier . Mo Beihan had heated them up, and Gu Qingyao added a dish of preserved vegetables and a portion of cabbage .
Gu Conghua and Wen Ruyu sat at the table but were unable to eat .

After a long time, Gu Conghua sighed . “It’s all my fault! I misjudged him . ”
Gu Yunshen gave a piece of sorghum bread to each of the old people . The chicken soup on the stove was ready, so he poured them each a bowl .
“That year, Younger Sister had a fall while on the mountain and Li Dahai carried her down . At that time, it was already dark . We had searched for a long time before we saw Li Dahai carrying her down the mountain . Many people in the brigade saw it too .
“Many people also saw Li Dahai propose marriage later on . This had a negative effect on Younger Sister . Considering our family circumstances at that time, the safest solution was to marry her off .

“We wanted to delay for a while to get to know them better, but others said that Younger Sister was a young lady from a landlord family, and was so proud she despised Li Dahai . Younger Sister might have been in danger if she refused to marry him .
“It’s not your fault . If you have to assign blame, blame it on the fact that a ruffian became the leader of the Poplar Brigade . Now that Younger Sister and Ting Ting are back, they can lead a better life . These times will pass eventually!”
Ultimately, it was their status as landlords that restricted their every move, and they were forced to endure everything without protest .
Gu Yunshuang was not a weak and useless woman . She had been the only girl in the Gu family and was well brought up .

But she had spent many years in the Poplar Brigade . During the first few years, she was still in contact with her family . But after Li Aiguo became the brigade leader, her interactions with her family became increasingly infrequent .
They knew that Gu Yunshuang was not doing well, but had not realized what desperate straits she was in .
Gu Yunshuang had always hidden the truth from her family, telling them only the good news and not her worries . She knew that if her elder brothers knew what kind of life she was living, they would certainly come knocking .
But Old Madam Li was a shrew and Li Aiguo was completely unreasonable . For years, the members of the Poplar Brigade had been utterly oppressed . The family of the former brigade leader had been persecuted until they dared not raise their heads .
Gu Qingyao poured a bowl of chicken soup for Li Fangting . “Yes, Father is right . Don’t worry, Grandfather . These times will pass in another five to six years . ”
