Chapter 258 Why do you think I'm not?
He was speaking to Scarface, but Scarface ignored him completely, took a piece of wood, tied it to the frame, and had Gu Dachui hand him a handful of straw.
Seeing that he was being ignored, Lin Bao walked over to him and said, "You want to build a house and get married, but do you know who your wife is?"
"Can you tell me about her so I can get to know her? It's freezing cold, can't you come wrapped in a blanket? She's building a new house, why is she making such a fuss... Hey, what are you doing?"
Just as Lin Bao jumped away, a small piece of wood landed where he had just been standing. If he hadn't jumped away in time...
That piece of wood probably pierced his foot instead of landing on his head.
"You surnamed Mao, are you doing this on purpose?"
"I didn't offend you, why are you being so ruthless?"
Scarface glanced at him from above: "The person I'm going to marry is Gu Jiao'er. What, do you have a problem with that?"
"You'd better keep your opinions to yourself, or I'll knock your teeth out."
Lin Bao was furious when he heard this. Putting aside who the person he was going to marry was, he was being threatened before he could even say anything. Was this something a human being would do?
No matter what, they're brothers, after all. How can someone threaten his own brother like this for a woman? Is he even human?
When Scarface said that the person he was going to marry was Gu Jiao'er, Lin Bao's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
"What the hell did you say? You want to marry Gu Jiao'er? You surnamed Mao, are you out of your mind?"
Scarface was on the roof, putting straw up there, and didn't have time to pay any attention to him. Lin Bao was talking a lot below, but there was no response from him.
He was angry and wanted to argue with Scarface, but before he could even go up to her, Scarface jumped down and said, "I'm the one who I want to marry. What business is it of yours who I marry?"
Hearing this, Lin Bao was so angry that his mouth twisted into a crook. He pointed at Scarface and said, "You...you...you don't know what's good for you!"
"so what?"
Lin Bao: "..." Damn it, this bastard has lost all humanity!
Is it something to be proud of just because you can get married?
Gu Jiao'er is such a willful and capricious woman with a lot of flaws. After he marries her, is he sure he can control her?
The house construction schedule was quickly put on hold. When the Gu family found out, Li Guixiang was the happiest. She hoped that Gu Jiao'er could get married and that she herself could also leave this family.
This house is broken, completely broken from the inside out, from the root of the problem. Li Guixiang doesn't want to stay here; she's afraid she'll die if she stays any longer.
Gu Jiao'er hadn't expected that what Scarface said was true, but when she heard the news, she hesitated.
Is she really going to marry him? Is she really going to marry that person?
The members of the Gu family had different thoughts. Ever since Gu Jinniu heard the news, he kept a close eye on Gu Jiao'er, and his gaze made Gu Jiao'er afraid to leave her room.
The night before New Year's Eve, Scarface told the Gu family, "Listen up, I'll get the house fixed as soon as tomorrow is over."
"After we finish building the house, we'll bring our wives home. Then we'll live next door to you, and you're welcome to come visit."
"Uncle Dao, you haven't told us who the bride is. We don't know if she's pretty or what her temperament is like. What if she doesn't like us?"
The person asking the question was Gu Ershi. After he finished asking the question, Sanhu next to him chimed in, "That's right!"
"We've never even met her, and you haven't told us anything. What if the bride doesn't like us visiting?"
"Nonsense, nonsense! All you do is talk nonsense. My wife is always generous, no matter what. How could she not like you guys?"
"Besides, my house is right next door to yours, just a short walk away. Why didn't you call me when you came?"
He's a man and the head of the household. If he wants to invite someone over, does he need his wife's permission?
Everyone got drunk that night, and the children also drank a little. Although Lin Cai wasn't drunk, her head was still a bit dizzy.
She went outside and sat on the steps, placing her hand on Big Gray's head: "Big Gray, do you miss your parents?"
"Why don't you go back to your parents? They must miss you a lot right now!"
Big Gray didn't seem to understand, and then let out a howl, "Awoo..."
Lin Cai patted its head again: "Shut up, don't bark like that in the middle of the night, or you'll scare them to death."
There were rumors in some villages that wild animals had come down from the mountains to attack the villagers. Now that it's so late, if they hear the howling of wolves and think that wolves have come down from the mountains, that would be terrible!
The big gray head was patted, and it seemed to understand what its owner said. Its voice then became low and it howled softly.
Hearing the kitten-like voice, Lin Cai chuckled: "You unlucky kid, I told you to keep your voice down, but you didn't have to be this quiet!"
"This is our home, so there's nothing to be afraid of!"
A man and a wolf sat outside in the courtyard watching the snow, while a large number of people inside collapsed. The next morning, everyone was woken up by the cold.
Lin Cai lit the charcoal fire for them, then shouldered her basket and went out.
She went up the mountain, but stopped halfway up.
The snow has been falling non-stop for the past few days; every step you take outside leaves a footprint.
She walked to the top of the mountain, leaving a trail of footprints behind her.
"Come out. You've been following me for so long, isn't it a bit inappropriate to keep following me?"
She knew someone was following her, but she didn't know who it was. After hearing what she said, the person behind her came out.
"You are not Lin Cai."
"So, are you Gu Jinniu?"
Lin Cai turned to look at Gu Jinniu, who had been following her all the way. She focused her gaze on his feet and frowned when she saw that he was unsteady on his feet.
"Our Big Grey never bites the wrong person, so it seems you were the one that night."
"So what if it's me? So what if it's not me? I don't admit it, do you have any proof?"
"You've lived in the Gu family for so long, don't they all know you're not Lin Cai? If they found out, do you think they'd burn you alive?"
Hearing this, Lin Cai showed no fear whatsoever; in fact, she laughed and said, "Why should I be afraid?"
"You just said that I've lived with them for so long and they haven't noticed anything. What makes you think I'm not Lin Cai?"
