My Entire Family's Gone Haywire!

If Mrs. Zhang wanted to make a scene, grandma Gu would pull a long face and glare at her, and she would stop. She could only hold it in and say bad things about the Gu family.

Grandma Gu was a dignified elder at home.

......

Soon, it was the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, the day when the second branch of the Gu family would move to the new house.

Their new house was right next to their previous house. They did not invite too many people to warm up their rooms. They only invited people from the old mansion. They also invited grandma Xiao and Lu Zheng. One of them was grandma Gu’s best friend since they were young, and the other was someone who worked with her on the farm. Naturally, they had to invite them.

All the furniture was new, and they only needed to move some daily necessities over.

This was the first time that grandma Gu had come here since she drove the second branch of the Gu family out. She was quite satisfied when she walked into the second branch’s new house.

The surrounding walls were still mud walls and looked yellow, but she heard from second brother’s family that they would plant some vines in spring. By then, the walls would be green and it would look pretty good with small flowers.

Pushing open the door, they saw the bluestone floor all the way to the central room. It was surrounded by Small Stones from the River. It didn’t look very good on the riverbank, but it looked quite good. Walking on this road on a rainy day, one’s shoes wouldn’t be stained with mud.

On the left were three rows and three roads, a total of nine vegetable fields. Well, they knew how to live. The vegetable fields were all so beautiful, but they had not planted seeds yet.

There was a row of wooden houses next to the vegetable field, which should be the henhouses, piggies, and latrines. Opposite this row was the warehouse, and opposite the vegetable field was the kitchen. There was a sink and a water tank outside the building. The new house and the old house were not far away, so there was no need to dig a well.

On the right side of the bluestone road, there was a pond. According to second eldest’s wife, it was used to rear fish and plant some lotus roots. When the weather was hot, the Lotus flowers would also look good when they bloomed.

The pond was square in shape, and there was a long corridor at the corner of the wall beside the pond. At the corner, there was a stone table. On a hot day, this corner was cool and breezy.

At the end of the corridor was a large, spacious room. It was said that niannian used it to create new things. Grandma Gu had no idea that her granddaughter-in-law had changed from an embroidery enthusiast to a craftsman, but she was still very supportive of her granddaughter’s change in behavior.

This house was the living quarters of the family and the central room.

On the side of the new house, except for the chicken and pigsty and toilet next to the vegetable field, the rest of the houses were large brick houses. The houses were spacious and bright with good lighting.

The weather was so good that even the sun could shine in.

“Lan lan, when big sister Xiao confirms that I’ve recovered, we don’t have to save money anymore. Let’s build a new house!” Grandpa Gu saw the love in grandma Gu’s eyes and said with a smile.

“We’re old, so let’s leave the silver for the children! We’ve lived in that mud-walled house for so many years, and we’re used to it. ” Grandma Gu was a little moved, but she still refused after some thought.

“It’s precisely because we’re old that we want it. When my body can take it, I’ll sell my calligraphy and paintings and get the money to build your big brick house.” Grandpa Gu held grandma Gu’s hand and smiled gently.

“Brother Chuan.” Grandma Gu was touched, but she still shook her head. no need. Xiao said that you can’t work too hard even though you’re feeling better.

The old couple strolled to Houyang Valley. The four Gu sisters were just about to come to Houyang Valley to talk. Hearing the noise, they could only stop in their tracks. Four heads popped out from the corner of the wall. Gu si, Gu Xin, and Gu Hui were all thinking about Gu Hui. The four sisters stared at their own grandparents without blinking.
