Chapter 771 Thanksgiving

It was dawn, and Mrs. Gu and An An had a simple meal and were about to set off.

As soon as the grandparents and grandson walked out of the inn, they saw Gu Heping coming with Fugui.

Mrs. Gu smiled and said, "I said I don't want to give it to you, why don't you listen?"

Gu Heping said, "Auntie, let us take you out of the city!"

Fugui said with a sad look on his face: "Grandma, I don't know when I will meet next time. If I weren't afraid that you would dislike me, I would like you to go back to Pingzhou."

Mrs. Gu smiled and said, "No, you all have your own things to do. You don't have to worry about it. I will come back in two years."

In fact, she knew in her heart that as she grew older, she had fewer and fewer opportunities to come back.

The father and son sent them to the suburbs until they could not see the carriage.

Fugui said, "Dad, I want to do some business by myself."

"What business are you going to do?"

Fugui said: "I want to do a raw silk business. I have been in the shop for so many years and know a lot about this industry. Dad, I can guarantee that I can make money."

Gu Heping shook his head and said, "Many things look easy, but they are difficult to do. The profit of the raw silk business is indeed considerable, but if you do it small, you can't make much money. If you do it bigger, you have no connections blocking other people's financial resources, and they will make you lose everything."

"Fugui, I don't object to your small business, but this business risk is too great. I don't agree with you." Gu Heping said earnestly: "Fugui, you have to be down-to-earth in doing business, or it will be easy to fall. If you fall, your father will not help you."

Fugui hesitated and said, "Dad, I'm thinking about it."

Gu Heping nodded and said, "Fugui, you are not alone now, and your wife and even have your own children in the near future. No matter what you do, think about them more."

It is nice for a child to have his own ideas and not just listen to him. Unlike before, he had no opinion, he was just what his mother said to Yuan Shanniang. As a result, he fell so big. If it weren't for the sake of two children, he might have jumped into the river and committed suicide.

The two returned to the county town and went home separately.

Zeng looked at him several times, but when he saw that he did not respond, he asked directly: "Did you give me something when I am back this time?"

Gu Heping asked: "What are you giving?"

"Silver!"

Gu Heping glanced at her and said, "No. The reason why my aunt gave me money eight years ago was because I had a house and could make money. What's the point of giving me money?"

"Why don't she give the incense, candles, paper money that I went to the grave that year?"

Gu Heping glanced at him and said, "My aunt originally wanted to give him 100 taels of silver, but my uncle raised me. If I buy incense and candles for him to sweep the grave, how could I still ask for money?"

He will never repay his kindness to him in his life. Now he is just buying some paper money, incense, candles for his uncle, so he is not ashamed to ask for his aunt's money.

She could only save ten taels of silver a year, and she had to save ten years for this hundred taels. Zeng roared: "What do you want to turn it off? Fugui and Baozhu and their marriage have exhausted their family's wealth. Fucai and Fuchun are both older and they will have to talk about marriage in a few years. Where will the money come from then on?"

The more Zeng said, the more aggrieved the more he felt, and tears fell down: "I know you always think that I value money too much, but if we don't have money, what can Fuchun and Fu use to get married?"

Seeing her eyes turned red, Gu Heping sighed and handed her a silver note: "This is a silver note of one hundred taels, please take it!"

The surprise came too quickly, Zeng wiped his hand on his body a few times before picking up the silver bill.

Looking at the denomination above, Zeng said with red eyes: "Didn't you say you didn't want it?"

Gu Heping nodded and said, "I don't want it. But my aunt said that Fuchun and Fucai are old and getting married will be a big expense in the future, so she insisted on giving me the money."

Zeng didn't say anything while holding the silver bill.

Gu Heping said: "This hundred taels of silver cost 50 taels of spring, and only 50 taels of wealth, don't use it in other places."

Zeng said no.

Gu Heping continued, "I know you are uneasy and think I am too fond of Fugui. But the shop and Tiancai were given to him before the birth of the Fuchun brothers, and the money for buying those industries was not mine. My father, the one who gave Fugui was actually the house."

"That's what I think. After Fuchun got married, he would let him move to the house next to Fugui. When Fu got married, he would give it to him. If you want, let Fugui support him. If you don't want, we will go back to the countryside to support him."

Zeng didn't say anything.

Gu Heping knew that she disagreed and said, "Who do you want to live like?"

Zeng said, "I don't want to split up."

Gu Heping shook his head and said, "The family must be separated. Fugui is the eldest brother. He will be separated when he gets married. What do they think about Fuchun and wealth to get married without having a family? You will definitely feel unfair. Moreover, there are many conflicts when you live together, and your brothers' relationship will be affected. On the contrary, if you separate, it will be better if you don't live together."

After hearing this, Zeng thought it was reasonable, so he thought for a while and said, "Then we will live with the rich in the future."

In Taifeng County, most of the parents let their eldest son take care of their elders. However, a small number of them like young sons and will live with them.

Gu Heping nodded and said, "That's fine. Then let Fugui and Fuchun give food and pension money every year."

Zeng did not expect Gu Heping to agree so easily this time, and the depression in his heart suddenly dissipated a lot.

Gu Heping saw that her expression became much calmer and said, "Fugui suffered so much with me, and I couldn't help but feel a little bit painful in my heart. But in my heart, you are as important as Fuchun and Fugui."

Zeng always felt that Gu Heping didn't take her in his heart, and now his eyes turned red when he heard this.

Gu Heping said: "Don't think about it in the future, let's live a good life in the future."

Zeng wiped his tears, nodded and said, "Well, let's live a good life."

At the same time, An An was also talking about Gu Heping: "Grandma, my second uncle's current appearance is completely different from what Hua Mama described."

After Gu Heping pushed the silver bill back, she was really surprised because she could see that Gu Heping really didn't want the money.

Mrs. Gu said, "Yes, I didn't expect him to become so good now."

Zhu'er said: "I think it may be because I endured hardships and tasted the hardships of life and knew who was really good to him, so I started to change."

Gu Xian has been living in a honeypot, so she remains unchanged.

Mrs. Gu nodded and said, "It's good to change it. Seeing him like this, I'm very pleased. Even the old man would be very happy in the underworld."

After hearing this, An An thoughtful.
