The Challenge of a Farmhouse Son-in-Law
Chapter 115 Argument

Chapter 115: Chapter 115 Argument

Huang Xiangwen hurriedly pulled Sanya back to her seat, warning her with a stern look.

"You heartless little wretches, my old lady hasn’t even started eating yet, and here you are, reaching for the food! One after another, all you do is freeload without working a bit, a bunch of thankless wretches," bellowed Mother Huang in fury.

The one being indirectly scolded was clearly Gu Youyou!

Gu Erbao, feeling wronged, said, "Grandma, I did work!"

Gu Sanbao also blinked back tears of grievance and said, "I worked too, I herded the cattle!"

She sneered disdainfully at Gu Youyou and said, "Not one of you has any conscience, all of you are heartless, ungrateful wretches!"

"Enough!" Gu Feng slammed his chopsticks onto the table with a slap, and now even less so did anyone dare to eat, just staring at the meat on the table with drooling mouths!

Gu Feng glared at Mother Huang, his anger evident as he snorted, "Who are you implying with that roundabout criticism? Youyou is your granddaughter too. Yes, she doesn’t work, but is it because she doesn’t want to? If she were in good health, would she lie in bed all day waiting to be fed and watered?

When you’re so old you can’t get up anymore and you lie in bed every day waiting to be fed and watered, I won’t say a word about you either!"

Mother Huang did not like this at all and retorted angrily at Gu Feng, "You old fool, who are you saying spends all day in bed waiting to be waited on hand and foot? I’m as fit as a fiddle, and I’ll still be in fine fettle when you’re buried and rotting to bits!"

"You..." That was cursing him to an early grave, and Gu Feng, overwhelmed by rage, couldn’t catch his breath and collapsed to the floor with his eyes rolling back.

The whole family was stunned, especially Gu Youyou!

She had been thinking that since Grandpa had offered the food so kindly, it was a good time to eat her fill and annoy Grandma, but it would be a loss if Grandpa were really to be angered into a bad state.

"Oh dear, Dad, what’s happened to you!"

Gu’s second son, who was sitting next to him, immediately crouched down and helped him up.

Mother Huang, too, was taken aback, standing there speechless for quite some time.

The whole family gathered around, and Gu Youyou, who was squeezed to the outside, also made a strenuous effort to push her way in.

Grandpa was in distress, and she was more anxious than anyone else.

But there was Huang Xiangwen, still pushing her away and yelling, "It’s all because of you, you jinx! If it wasn’t for you, would Mom and Dad have quarreled? Would Dad have fainted?"

"Right, it’s all your fault. Our family doesn’t welcome you; we don’t like you coming to steal our meat. Get out!" Gu Erbao also chimed in with his mother and forcefully pushed Gu Youyou.

Gu Youyou was furious. Even at this critical moment, they were more concerned with shifting the blame than with helping.

To scold her was one thing, but this certainly wasn’t the time!

She said urgently, "Please understand the situation. My grandpa is still sick. If you’re really worried about him, you should go to the next village and fetch the doctor immediately, not waste time holding onto me here!"

Huang Xiangwen snapped, "You should be the one to go. If it wasn’t for you, would Dad have ended up like this?"

...There was really no reasoning with these village women. Gu Youyou glared coldly at her and said sternly, "Step aside; I need to see my Grandpa!"

"Aren’t you worried about your Grandpa? Then you go get the doctor now!"

Gu Youyou scoffed. With so many people around, none went, but they expected me, the sickly one, to go?

Such filial piety they all had. Were they not afraid the sickly one would faint on the way and delay things even more?

Gu Youyou, furious, scanned the Gu Family members and exclaimed, "I am unwell and can’t move quickly. Grandpa can’t afford the delay. No matter what, it shouldn’t be me who goes!"
