Chapter 173: Strangled in the cradle

Gu Fei’s hands were shaking as she recited. For such a heavy gift, she only gave two small bottles of Five Grain Liquor. Now, would it be enough to give the whole bottle of Five Grain Liquor to Zhang Ze?

The deer was still alive, with four hooves tied up and lying on the ground, with wet eyes.

Xiao Cao squatted beside the deer, tilted her head, and looked at it curiously, wanting to reach out and touch it, but didn’t dare.

Gu Zhang’s face was gloomy. What does Young Master Su want to do?

They were traveling together on the road, so why give such a heavy New Year gift?

His family was just an ordinary farmer. Apart from Gu Fei, was there anything worth making friends with?

Could it be that he came for Gu Fei?

After all, Gu Fei killed wolves and bandits along the way, and Young Master Su saw it all.

Gu Zhang sighed: Oh, forget it, don’t think about it, it’s a blessing, it’s not a disaster, it’s a disaster that can’t be avoided.

After a long time, he will find out Young Master Su’s intention.

Mrs. Chen looked at the things on the ground, “My goodness, this rich family is different. They gave so many things as New Year gifts. How much money does it cost!”

She was happy and worried at the same time. What should she do with so many things?
They can’t eat them all!

Gu Zhang said in a deep voice: “It’s the New Year, let’s send the cured chicken, duck, and fish to each household.”

“Liu Zhuangtou, let’s cut the musk deer in half and get some cured chicken and duck.”

As she was talking, there was a knock on the door, and Mrs. Qian’s voice: “Gu Laoer, sister-in-law, open the door!”

Mrs. Chen rolled her eyes.

Gu Zhang frowned: “Everyone, don’t stand there, move the things to the kitchen first.”

“Okay.” Gu Sanlang picked up the deer and left, Xiao Cao followed him with her two short legs.

Mrs. Qian was shouting outside, and people in the yard were busy moving things.

After the things were moved, Li Chunhua went to open the door for Mrs. Qian.

Seeing the whole family standing in the yard staring at her, Mrs. Qian laughed dryly: “I heard that Young Master Su brought gifts to everyone, why didn’t I see it? What did he send?”

Chen sneered: “Everyone? Which everyone?”

“Brother Zhang clearly said that it was for my family.”

“It’s none of your business what he sent!”

Mrs. Qian’s cheek twitched: “Although it’s none of my business, mother is still with us. It’s the New Year, you have to give her something good to show your filial piety, don’t you?”

Gu Zhang didn’t want to argue with a woman, so he snorted and turned away.

Mrs. Chen stretched out her hand and pushed Qian out: “What my family gives to mother is none of your business. Go, go, go, my family has to cook, and I don’t have time to chat with you.”

Mrs. Qian was pushed out of the gate by Mrs. Chen, and then the two doors were closed.

Mrs. Qian almost fell backward in anger.

After returning to find the old lady, she started to cry: “Gu Laoer’s family has lost their conscience. People gave them so many gifts, but they didn’t even give me something to honor Mother, and they kicked me out.”

“Mother, they want to eat alone, and they don’t take you seriously at all!”

Old Lady Gu was so angry that her chest heaved: “I, I’m going to find Laoer! I’ll beat him to death for not caring about his mother!” At this time, the eldest aunt stepped in from the door and sneered at Mrs. Qian: “When I saw you running in, I knew you were going to instigate Mother to make trouble again.”

“Short-sighted thing, you only know how to take advantage of others all day long, you might as well poke a finger at the manure picker passing by. ”

Mrs. Qian turned around and pointed at the eldest aunt: “You, you——”

The Eldest Aunt snorted coldly and looked at the old lady: “Mother, don’t make trouble with this troublemaker. You’ve made Laoer’s heart turn cold. Do you think you can have a good life!”

“I’m not saying anything bad about you. However, if you didn’t make a fuss at the beginning, didn’t care about Laoer’s family affairs, didn’t always scold his wife, and didn’t always scold Xiao Fei, you’re living with them now and enjoying life.”

“However, you still can’t figure out about this, and still want to cause trouble!”
