Chapter 88: Let Me Teach You A Trick (2)

Gu Qingyao said, “I’m not asking you to really submit – you should try your best to protect yourself without allowing anyone to realize what you’re doing . You must get everyone to pity you and be repelled by your eldest uncle’s family . You must show everyone that you and your younger sister are being poorly treated by your eldest uncle’s family . That way, everyone will support you when you move out .

“But you must not show that you want to leave . Just… just say you don’t want to burden your eldest uncle’s family, that you’ll support your little sister when you’ve grown up, and things like that . You must speak politely, and appear to be terrified of your eldest uncle . You must convince everyone that you’ve been cowed by the beating and starving in your eldest uncle’s house and cannot carry on anymore . You would rather starve to death outside with your little sister than remain there any longer .

“When your eldest uncle beats you, don’t just remain in the house and allow him to beat you . Think of a way to run outside and yell loudly . Then run towards the brigade leader’s house, and keep admitting that you were wrong . Shout that you won’t dare to do it again, that you won’t dare to eat the food in the house anymore, that you’re a burden on your eldest uncle, and so on . You must be especially filial and let everyone know that you can’t remain in your eldest uncle’s house any longer . Do you understand?”

Chen Goudan was stunned!

He felt unable to process all this .

“This… this…”

In these times, people were very straightforward and honest . They were simple and did not manipulate each other . Although a child like Chen Goudan was more intelligent than others, he had no experience in these matters .

But he had run wild since he was a child and his brain was a lot more nimble, so he grasped the crux of the plan after some thought . He said smilingly, “Elder Sister Gu, I understand! I know what to do!”

Chen Goudan fell silent after he understood . As they walked, he considered what he should do when he got home . When they came to a fork in the road, each went their own way . Gu Qingyao went home, while Chen Goudan brought his younger sister towards their home .

Gu Qingyao stood half-way up the hill and watched the children depart .

In these times, children were very innocent . So when she said she would be responsible for Chen Xiaocao’s food for the next few years, Chen Goudan had believed her . People born a few decades later would certainly be less trusting .

But she was determined to help these two children . In her previous life, she had been so despised and reviled by others that she dared not leave the house . But these two children would often find a way to visit and comfort her .

She had to help them in order to repay them for their friendship . In any case, she had enough food .

When she returned, Gu Qingyao gave the two fish to the older men and women who had been sent to the countryside . They had not joined the brigade to fish . Even her own grandfather and grandma had not gone because they were bad elements, and were undergoing reformation .

They usually had no part in brigade affairs like these .

The sky was growing dark by the time Gu Qingyao got home, but Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing had not yet returned . Gu Qingyao could not be bothered with them . It would be best if they stayed away for the rest of their lives .

She had not been in her house for long when she heard a terrible screaming and wailing coming from the foot of the mountain, where everyone in the brigade lived . The sound was like the wailing of a demon or the howling of a wolf .

It was not just Chen Goudan . Even Chen Xiaocao, the little girl who had just turned six years old, and who often had nothing to eat, was also carrying on terribly . This was probably the first time in her life that Chen Xiaocao was exerting so much energy to cry loudly .

Gu Qingyao’s lips twitched . These children were so clever .

She quickly ran out and stood in her yard, and looked down the mountain .

At that moment, the Chen house was in chaos!
