My Entire Family’s Gone Haywire! - Chapter 31

As for the reason, Gu Xin couldn’t explain it clearly. She only knew that Wang Tiezhu had bullied Sun Yumei, which was why Sun Yumei had gone back to complain with a big belly.

After Gu Nian heard it, she sighed, “There are so many older brothers! One older brother giving birth to a son, tsk tsk… But, mother, aren’t the Sun family members worried that Sun Yumei will be bullied even more in the Wang family?”

Cai Xiaolian pondered for a moment, “The Wang family is small. There is only Granny Wang, her son, and daughter-in-law, plus Wang Tiezhu and Wang Cuihua. Granny Wang’s son, Wang Dasheng, can’t do anything in the face of seven strong men!”

Cai Xiaolian was secretly trying to educate Gu Nian about the Wang family’s population. She knew that she did not have the original owner’s memories.

Gu Nianzhi understood now. Sun Yumei would not be bullied too much. There were so many people in her family. As long as she was reasonable and did not cause trouble, the Wang family would not be able to say anything in the face of the Sun family.

“Mother, Sister, Sister Yumei is very good. She’s going to give birth to a baby. She told me that when she gives birth to a baby in the future, she will let me go and see it. She even gave me candy to eat,” Gu Xin added.

With that one sentence, Cai Xiaolian and Gu Nian’s affection for Sun Yumei, whom they had never met before, skyrocketed.

The mother and daughter trio talked as they walked. An hour passed quickly and they arrived at the Zhou family town.

Cai Xiaolian used to be busy with work and did not like to exercise, but the original owner was a village woman. She was in good health, so she did not feel tired at all after walking for two hours.

Gu Nian was just a little short. She was panting, but she was still able to hold on.

As for Gu Xin, there was no need to mention her. She had been busy all day and was already used to it. She had a full meal this morning.

The quaint streets and the people on the streets made Cai Xiaolian and Gu Nian feel that they had come to the ancient times. They were not the streets built in the later stages of the film and television industry, but the real ancient times.

The front of the shops fluttered with the guise of black and yellow-faced ordinary people dressed in plain clothes. The roads were paved with bluestone, and there were donkey drivers, ox carts, and palanquins. There were also low-rise houses on both sides of the streets, and salesmen carrying loads and selling goods.

It was so lively!

Gu Xin, like Cai Xiaolian and Gu Nian, had never seen such a scene. Although she was born and raised in the Great Zhou Dynasty, she had never left the village of San Cha Kou.

She was also stunned by this scene.

“Let’s go, let’s go. Nian Nian, you take Xin Xin with you. There are many people today, so don’t get lost!” Cai Xiaolian was the first to come back to her senses.

Gu Xin held Gu Nian’s hand tightly without her having to say anything.

She was even more afraid than Cai Xiaolian and Gu Nian. She had heard that there were children in the village who followed adults to the county and were taken away by the courtesans.

Her grandfather had also told her not to talk to strangers and not to run around as long as they were out of the village.

“Mother, what should we do first?” Gu Nian tugged at Gu Xin tightly, feeling a strong sense of responsibility.

“First, we’ll buy some rice flour and seasoning. Then we’ll go look for your father. We’ll have a meal together and then we’ll go home.” Cai Xiaolian already had a plan in mind.

“Mother, do you know where Father and Uncle are working?” Gu Xin asked curiously.

Cai Xiaolian pointed ahead and said, “I know! Look over there. It says it goes to the pier!”

“Mother, you can read?” Gu Xin asked in surprise.

“Of course, your dad taught me. Xin Xin learned the names of her family from Grandpa, so mom has to learn too! I can’t fall behind Xin Xin.” Cai Xiaolian had also discussed this with Gu Shouxin.

Gu Shouxin had been favored by his teacher when he was still in school. Not only was he a high school student, but he was also very well-educated. However, there was absolutely no problem with him being able to read and write. Gu Xin knew about this. She had often heard from her grandfather.

Cai Xiaolian’s family was not well-off. Her brother had never been to school, so there was no need to talk about her.

Gu Nian and Gu Xin, on the other hand, would learn how to read together with her grandfather.

However, Gu Nian had not been there since she started learning how to embroider. Up until now, she could only recognize the names of her family members and could not write.

Gu Xin was slightly better off. She could recognize the names of her family members and could also write some simple words that did not have many strokes.

Gu Xin was still young. The three strange souls in the family had originally planned to slowly reveal their differences bit by bit so that Gu Xin would not feel out of place and would not suspect anything.

The mother and daughter walked together on the street, looking left and right. They were curious about everything.

They arrived at a shop that sold grain, oil, and rice noodles. Cai Xiaolian bought enough rice for four people to eat for three days. She weighed five kilograms of salt and bought some chili noodles, sesame oil, and other spices.

Of course, they were not as complete as they were in the modern world.

Gu Xin wanted to say something, but she stopped herself. She had only eaten rice seven times in her entire life. She knew that rice was very expensive, and ordinary people could not eat it every day.

But when she saw how happy her mother and sister were, she swallowed her words and wanted to stop them.

She had spent half a tael of silver and was left with more than 500 wen.

Cai Xiaolian put the change into her purse and put it in her clothes.

When the mother and daughter walked out of the grain store, Zhang Pipi, who was at the corner, saw them.

Yesterday, Zhang Pipi was scared by the Gu family. But today, when he got up and was about to go to the gambling house, he saw this family. His evil intentions came at once.

Humph, Second Brother Gu’s wife and daughter were completely fine. They had extorted two taels of silver from him, so they had to make up for it.

‘Wait a minute, let’s see if there are other people around them.’

The mother and daughter trio had no idea that they had been targeted.

They walked along the roadside and watched as they headed towards the dock.

Zhang Pipi followed them for a while. When he found that the mother and daughter trio did not have any other companions, he was relieved.

He led two of his men through the alley and circled around the area. He was ahead of the mother and daughter trio and was waiting behind the wall.

When the mother and daughter trio arrived at the entrance of the alley, Zhang Pipi and two of his men quickly appeared and carried the three of them into the alley.

Cai Xiaolian: They would be robbed even if they had five hundred wen in their pockets?

Gu Nian: Not only would they be forced to get married once they transmigrated, but they would also be rob a common girl on their first shopping trip?

Gu Xin: What’s wrong? What happened?

The rice bags, salt bags, and small bags of condiments Cai Xiaolian was carrying all fell to the ground.

“Boss, Second Brother Gu’s wife is a little old and his daughter is a little young, but she can still be sold for 20 taels of silver. The eldest daughter is just the right age and looks good too. I think she can be sold for 50 taels!” Zhang Pipi’s men immediately set a price for the three of them.

“F*ck, I’m only worth 50 taels?” Gu Nian was angry and stepped on the foot of the person behind her.

The person felt the pain and subconsciously tried to cover his foot.

Gu Nian took the opportunity to release both her hands. She bent down slightly and directly carried the person behind her and threw him to the ground.

She wasn’t strong, she just knew some fighting skills.

Cai Xiaolian persevered and used all her strength to knock her head back. The person who grabbed her was hit in the head and felt dizzy. She let go of Cai Xiaolian and covered her head with her hands.

Zhang Pipi didn’t expect this situation. He grabbed Gu Xin tightly, afraid that the little girl would be so fierce.

He was wrong about that.

Gu Xin wanted to be as fierce as her mother and sister, but she was too small and had never fought before, so she did not know the technique involved.

“Stop! Stay where you are, or I’ll kill this little girl!” Zhang Pipi held Gu Xin and took a few steps back.

Cai Xiaolian and Gu Nian stood back to back and made a fighting pose, so the other two did not dare to step forward.

“Mother, what do we do now?” Gu Nian had the ability to fight one against three and then escape. Although she would be slightly injured, Little Xin Xin was now in her opponent’s hands!

“Damn it!” Cai Xiaolian cursed in her heart. Her eyes flashed, and she finally looked like she was going all out. “Watch me. You find the right time to snatch Xin Xin back and then run with her.”

After she finished speaking, she rolled up her sleeves and found a relatively flat place to sit on the ground without waiting for Gu Nian’s reply.

“Help! Help! They’re robbing women in broad daylight! Help! Help! There’s a robber! Fire! Water loss!”

Cai Xiaolian began to pat her thigh as she sat on the ground and shouted at the top of her lungs.

There was nothing she could do about it. Many women in the village were either unable to win a quarrel or behaved in the same way, but the words coming out of their mouths were different.

Gu Nian: “…”

Mother, you’re a female CEO!

Just shout! Do you have to sit on the ground?

What about your image?

Although the alley was quiet, it was filled with households, so there must be someone in the house.

Even if they didn’t want to meddle in other people’s business, Cai Xiaolian was shouting, “The water’s gone! There’s a fire!” This made the three of them panic.

They were good local ruffians. They dared to bully others openly, but they didn’t dare to snatch others.

“Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof!”

At this moment, a wild dog came out of nowhere.

It turned into the alley and bit Zhang Pipi’s calf.

Zhang Pipi was in pain, so he couldn’t care less about Gu Xin.

Gu Xin was quite smart at the moment. She felt the restraints on her loosen and quickly ran to Cai Xiaolian.

“Ouch! Ouch! You damn dog!”

“Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof…”

“Ah! Ah! My leg! Are you two dead?! Hurry up and get this damn dog away from me!”

The mother and daughter trio was not in the mood to watch the battle between the three of them and the dog. Cai Xiaolian quickly ran out of the alley with one big and one small.

“Hu!”

“Hu!”

“Hu!”

After fleeing far away from the alley, the mother and daughter trio patted their hearts and exhaled in unison.

“Mother, Sister, did you hurt your head and hands when you hit someone just now?” Gu Xin looked up and asked with concern.

“No. I felt refreshed when I heard those two voices.” Cai Xiaolian wiped the sweat off her forehead and rubbed the back of her head with a smile.

“Mother, you’re so awesome! I’m impressed!” Gu Nian cupped her fists at Cai Xiaolian.

Cai Xiaolian knew what Gu Nian was talking about. She rolled her eyes at her and looked at Gu Xin. “Xin Xin, did that bad guy hurt you?”

Gu Xin shook her head. “I’m fine.”

“That’s good to hear! Xin Xin, I’ll teach you a few moves every morning from now on. When you get caught like this, how are you going to fight back? You must learn how to fight back!” Gu Nianzhi raised her fists.

“Okay, okay!” Gu Xin nodded repeatedly, her sparkling eyes filled with longing.

Her mother and sister had been able to escape from the bad guy just now, but she hadn’t been able to. She had even made it difficult for her mother and sister to perform. She was extremely frustrated!
