Lian Qingmei ignored Gu Wei's flattery and lowered her head to look at the dishes in the bowl. With a calm voice, she said, "Gu Wei, go work with your brother. We can't let your brother raise our family by himself."

"This," Gu Wei retorted subconsciously, "Big Bro didn't say anything. You're a woman, hurry up and eat your food."

Gu Qingzi saw that Gu Wei was still as shameless as ever and chuckled, "Second Brother, elder brother is also going to get married and have kids, it's only natural for him to raise parents. Since you already have a wife and children, you can be considered to have a family.

On the surface, Gu Qingzi clenched Lian Qingmei's hand tightly under the table, comforting her. Lian Qingmei looked at Gu Qingzi, who smiled warmly. Lian Qingmei's estrangement had also disappeared, and she knew that Gu Qingzi was purposely provoking Gu Wei.

"What are you saying? We are a family. " Gu Wei said in a disguised manner, but in his heart, he felt disgraced by Gu Qingzi's words, "When I have a future, I will definitely help Big Bro."

"Heh, brother knows when to settle debts. Second Brother, then let's settle the score first. Then, you can think about your future prospects." Gu Qingzi said in a serious tone. She went back to her room to get a pen and paper, just in time to let everyone eat.

Our house contract is one hundred and thirty silver taels, and then you mortgaged Second Sister-in-Law. Second Sister-in-Law is priceless, but our family had to pay you back two silver taels, and your years of food and drinks will be counted as a whole, five silver taels a year for the time being. In twenty years, you owe the Gu family a total of two hundred and thirty-two silver taels. Gu Qingzi stopped writing and looked at Gu Wei, handing over the written list to Old Man Gu.

Gu Wei fell silent.

"Since Second Brother has accepted, dad, you should kick Second Brother out of the family tree. When he finishes repaying the money, then come back and live with me. Before we finish repaying the money, you can't live with the Gu family, you can't eat with the Gu family."

Gu Qingzi looked at Gu Wei and said with a smile, "Second Brother, do you think there's a problem?"

"Gu Qingzi!" Why can't you let me eat or drink? " Gu Wei didn't know what to say.

"The food was cooked by mother, the food was picked and washed by me. What did you make?" Your big brother and dad are both working. You don't do anything, what are you eating? " Gu Qingzi argued with reason.

Irritated by Gu Qingzi's words, Gu Wei got up and slammed the table, "Let me tell you, from now on, you, Second Brother, will be someone promising! I'm leaving right now, and none of you are going to stop me. "

"No one will stop you." As soon as Gu Qingzi finished her sentence.

Sure enough, no one went to stop Gu Wei. Gu Wei lost face and left the Gu household.

Lian Qingmei was a little worried. "Gu Wei, he …"

"Second sister in law, don't worry. Second Brother definitely won't leave with his little guts." Gu Qingzi had clearly seen Gu Wei's temperament these past few days. At most, he would just speak happily and submit in the end.

Lian Qingmei nodded. Knowing her husband's personality, she carried the child back to her room.

Gu Qingzi opened the door, glanced at Gu Wei who was standing not far from the door, and walked towards the Shen Family with an unchanging expression.

"Where are you going?" Gu Wei asked from afar.

"Because of Second Brother's two taels of silver, he worked for others for free for half a month. Don't you remember?" Gu Qingzi looked coldly at Gu Wei, retracted her gaze, and pushed open the Shen Family door, closing it behind her.

Gu Wei stood on the spot with mixed feelings.

The sky was still bright. It was the end of May, and the night was still short.

Gu Qingzi left after Shen Family had finished cooking dinner. When she looked around, she saw that Gu Wei was already gone.

On the dinner table at home.

"Qingzi, have you seen your brother?" Lian Qingmei was still worried. She held onto Gu Zhi's finger, which was turning white. "I saw the sky tonight. It should be raining. Your brother has nowhere to go. What do we do if he gets wet?"

"Second sister in law, how worried are you? Do you think Second Brother's character can make you suffer? "Maybe he will go to the house in the field and fall asleep. Maybe he will be more carefree. With Second Brother's personality, how can he suffer?" Actually, Gu Qingzi felt the same way about Lian Qingmei.

"You're right to say that." Lian Qingmei relaxed her hold on Gu Zhi. "Then I'll go back and coax Zhi to sleep."

"Alright." Gu Qingzi smiled warmly and looked at the child in her arms, "Zhi is so good. I almost never heard him cry in the day. Now, he's better at night and doesn't cry anymore."

"It might be because you, Second Brother, used to mess with him, but it doesn't matter even if you cry." Lian Qingmei sighed again when she mentioned this.

Gu Qingzi had no choice in this matter. She could interfere with the family matters, but she had never interfered with Gu Wei's family matters and it was inconvenient for her to interfere.

After a while, the moon came up. Gu Qingzi estimated that it was around 6 PM.

"The buckle - is anyone at home?"

Gu Qingzi walked quickly to the door and opened it to see four to five men standing outside. They had opened only a crack to reveal half of their face. "Brother, what's the matter?"

"Gu Wei is now in the gambling den and has been beaten up. He asked me to help him inform the Gu family that you guys are going to bring him back."

"Thank you, big brother."

"Nothing, just passing by and helping out."

With that, those people left.

Gu Qingzi closed the door and went back to her room. She didn't want to bring Gu Wei back. To be honest, she didn't like people like Gu Wei, but …

Alas, she could not choose.

After some hesitation, Gu Qingzi went to Gu Loong's room and stood by the door. "Brother, Brother."

"Third sister, what's the matter?" Gu Loong opened the door.

Gu Qingzira's face fell, "Second Brother went to the gambling den. He was beaten up by the people from the gambling den. Someone just informed our family to bring the person over."

"Sigh, this …" 'Second brother, forget it. Third sister, you … ' "Hai." Gu Loong was dumb. After half a day, he said nothing, "I will go and bring Gu Wei back now."

"Big brother should find a few friends to go with him. Otherwise, the people from the gambling den will bully others with their power." Gu Qingzi considered for a moment before suggesting.

"Alright." Gu Loong took Gu Qingzi's words seriously. On the way to the gambling den, he asked his friends to go with him to the gambling den to bring Gu Wei back.

Gu Loong saw Gu Wei lying in front of the gambling den. When the waiter saw him, he frowned and said, "Hurry up and take this person away, it's bad luck."

"Thank you everyone." Gu Loong said politely.

"Yes." The waiter nodded and leaned against the doorstep.

Gu Loong and his friends carried Gu Wei home. Gu Qingzi stood guard at the door, and when she saw the person, she said, "Big Brother, just let Second Brother out of the door."

Gu Loong didn't understand, but he still did as he was told.

"Big brother, you go in first." Gu Qingzi said. When Gu Loong went in, Gu Qingzi followed and locked the door from the inside.
