Chapter 138: Get Lost!   Gu Qingyao pursed her lips. She really did not want to be bothered by the Zhang family at that moment. She just wanted to cook in peace.

Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing were outside, and they had come for their things. Although they thought they could have anything they wanted after Zhang Xiaohui got a divorce and married Wang Guozhu, the difficulties of these times meant that they could not relinquish their old belongings.

Although they despised their old clothes and shoes, they could not possibly throw them all away.

They were not that rich.

Gu Yunshen did not mind them taking their things. The faster they left, the better. These things were of no use to him anyway, so they might as well take them, or they would just be an eyesore.

They went to Gu Ruoqing’s room first. The room was very small, even smaller than Gu Qingyao’s room. There was a bed, a cupboard, a table and a stool. There were bed sheets and blankets on the bed. No one had lived here for some time, so it was rather dusty.

Gu Ruoqing was not a tidy person and her room was dirty and messy. Clothes were piled sloppily on her bed. Some were hers, and some belonged to Zhang Xiaohui.

These were all their old clothes.

They packed all the clothes and took them away. The Zhang family could not bear to leave the cupboard, table and bed behind. They wanted to take them too.

This was furniture. Some people did not have any.

Gu Yunshen did not care. They could take it if they wanted to.

So the Zhang family’s second son, Zhang Jianye, and the third son, Zhang Jianjun, took the bed and cupboard. An ox cart was left at the door of the courtyard. They had brought their own transport.

Gu Qingyao’s mouth twitched when she saw them moving the furniture.

When they were done with Gu Ruoqing’s room, they moved on to Gu Yunshen’s room. Zhang Xiaohui’s things were there.

The moment they entered the room and looked around, they could see that everything was clearly divided.

Gu Yunshen and Zhang Xiaohui’s belongings were kept separately.

The two of them slept on a long brick bed, each on one end. Their clothes, shoes, blankets and so on, were all placed separately. Zhang Xiaohui had two boxes that contained all her belongings.

In these times, people did not have many belongings. Zhang Xiaohui’s possessions were already considered quite substantial. Many other households did not have so many possessions among the entire family.

Zhang Jianye and Zhang Jianguo could tell at a glance what belonged to her. All they had to do was move them. Their two wives were bored, so they glanced at the kitchen. The door was closed, but the sounds of cooking could be heard from within.

The two of them moved towards the kitchen and peeped through the window, only to see Gu Qingyao standing at the table, slicing a large hunk of bacon. As they watched it being sliced, they imagined it would be particularly delicious in their mouths!

“Mother! Mother! There’s meat. There’s bacon!”

Old Madam Zhang’s eyes brightened the moment she heard there was meat. She hurried over to look. When she looked carefully through the window, she realized that there was more than one kind of meat on Gu Qingyao’s table.

Chicken, fish, meat, eggs. There was everything!

The three of them rushed towards the kitchen, but Mo Beihan was standing there.

Mo Beihan was speechless. He had shut the door, but had forgotten to shut the window.

“Move aside!” Old Madam Zhang bellowed impatiently.

Mo Beihan rolled his eyes. “This is the Gu house. It has no connection to your Zhang family. Get lost!”

Er...

His tone was very rude. This was the first time Old Madam Zhang had encountered this kind of treatment here.

Before that, the Gu family was always trying to stay out of trouble. As a landlord family undergoing re-education through labor, they could not afford to get into any kind of trouble.

The Zhang family were their relatives, and very difficult to deal with.

“This is the Gu house. What business is it of yours? You don’t even belong to our brigade. Mind your own business!”

Mo Beihan was about to say something when Gu Qingyao opened the door from within.
