Chapter 163 Chop off his hand
The couple on this side were jumping around incessantly in the house, while the couple on the other side remained quiet and didn't say a word.
Gu Jinniu took out a silver ingot and placed it on the table: "Help me with this well, and you'll be free."
Looking at the silver ingot, Li Guixiang's eyes remained completely calm. She took the silver and nodded, her face expressionless.
If it were in the past, Li Guixiang would have been overjoyed to see such a large ingot of silver.
Li Guixiang was not happy at all. She took the silver to the Gu family, but when she got to the door, she stopped and looked around but didn't see anyone.
She pushed open the door, quietly went inside, and then went to the old lady's room. The old lady was sleeping in her room and didn't even know someone had come in.
By the time the old lady realized what was happening, her face was covered by a pillow.
A middle-aged woman is bound to be stronger than an old woman. Li Guixiang watched the struggling old woman, but her expression remained unchanged.
If she didn't do that, she wouldn't have a good life. The man said that if she listened to him, he would set her free.
Li Guixiang kept her hand over the pillow without letting go, and soon the old lady stopped moving. When Li Guixiang opened the pillow, she was startled.
Because the old woman's eyes were not closed, she put the pillow back: "Mother, if you know this in the afterlife, please don't blame me. I had no choice."
“If I don’t do this, Taurus will definitely torture me to death.”
“Mother, I know it’s my fault, I’m sorry to you. After I die, I will definitely come to you to apologize, but it’s not too late now.”
She hasn't seen her son achieve success, hasn't enjoyed a peaceful retirement, and hasn't seen her daughter marry into a wealthy family, so she wants to live a little longer.
Even without a man, she would live until that time to see her children.
Li Guixiang came and went stealthily, without anyone seeing her. As soon as Da Hui got home, it kept barking.
They all went up the mountain today. Lin Cai wanted to get some thorns, but Scarface definitely couldn't handle it by himself.
They went to the last family's place, and the thorns they brought back almost pricked everyone.
Scarface, in particular, walked very carefully from the moment he came down the mountain until he got home, just in case he got pricked.
After all, this thing is no joke. If you really get pricked, it won't just be a hole!
"I quit, I quit. If anything like this happens again, don't bother me. I'll never do it again."
"Aren't you going to eat braised pork anymore? Don't you want to eat soy-braised duck?"
"You haven't even made it yet, and all you do is talk about it to make me envious. You're such an annoying girl!"
Big Grey kept barking, and Scarface got annoyed, so he just grabbed a thorn and chopped it on the ground.
"What are you yelling about? We're home now, can't you be quiet?"
While we were on the mountain, the wolf cub kept howling, but it was all dog barking, not a single wolf howl.
It's back now and it's still barking. It really doesn't seem tired or annoyed at all!
The thorns struck the ground, and Big Gray paused for a moment before running up to Lin Cai and howling.
Lin Cai patted the big gray wolf's head: "Take a rest for a while, it's not good for your voice to keep barking like that."
At this point, they hadn't noticed anything amiss. It wasn't until Lin Cai had someone call the old lady for dinner that evening that they discovered she had already stiffened.
Lin Cai stood outside the courtyard, looking up at the dark sky. The person was perfectly fine in the afternoon, but was gone when she came back in the evening. Lin Cai felt a strange sense of suffocation.
She couldn't understand what was going on. How could a perfectly healthy person do this? Just then, someone knocked on the door.
The banging was very loud. Gu Dachui opened the courtyard gate and was still a little dazed when he saw the people outside.
Then they heard the person at the door say, "Big Hammer, go help your grandma get ready. I'm here to pick her up."
The words were spoken in a way that was neither too loud nor too soft, and the people inside the courtyard could hear them. Lin Cai quickly turned her head to look at the doorway.
Are you here to pick up the old lady?
Why come at this time?
Why did they have to come at this particular time?
Lin Cai pondered why, and some answers were already obvious, but she refused to believe them.
Gu Jinniu stood outside the door and spoke calmly. Gu Dachui heard what he said but stood at the door without moving.
Gu Jinniu repeated his words, and this time he heard, "Why are you here to pick them up now?"
"Why didn't you come to pick me up earlier or later? Why are you only coming now?"
"Oh? Sister-in-law, it's like this, I've been quite busy lately and haven't had a chance to come pick up Mom."
"Well, my employer said today that we'd have a holiday tomorrow, so I bought two ounces of meat on the street, and came to pick up my mother as soon as I finished cooking dinner."
Gu Jinniu had a simple, honest smile on his face when he spoke, which would make anyone believe him and think he was very filial.
But Lin Cai didn't think so. She stood there without moving: "Tomorrow is a holiday. I bought meat today, so I'll go back and eat it now."
"It's pitch black. You're here to pick up an old person. Do all the people in the Gu family have night vision?"
Lin Cai's words were unpleasant, but even so, Gu Jinniu still wore a simple and honest smile, as if he didn't care at all about what Lin Cai said.
And after Lin Cai finished speaking, he continued, "Sister-in-law, although it's very dark now, I can carry Mother back on my back. I promise I won't let Mother fall."
Gu Jinniu was determined to pick someone up tonight. Lin Cai knew that this couldn't be kept secret and she had no choice but to tell Gu Jinniu directly.
"You don't need to take it. Mother is already dead. If you want to take it, go back and prepare a good coffin."
After she finished speaking, she turned and walked into the house, but before she had taken two steps, her arm was grabbed by a large hand.
"What did you mean by what you just said? What happened to my mother?"
Gu Jinniu did rough work all day and had a very strong grip. When he grabbed Lin Cai, Lin Cai immediately felt pain.
She tried to shake off the hand on her arm, but Gu Jinniu was holding on too tightly, and she couldn't shake it off at all. Just when Lin Cai couldn't help but cry out in pain, the force on her arm disappeared.
"Gu Jinniu, what are you planning to do so late at night?"
Lin Bao's heart pounded like a drum. Now, recalling what had just happened, he wished he could chop off the guy's hand.
His younger sister is so delicate, how could Gu Jinniu hit her so hard? And as a man, doesn't he feel ashamed to lay a hand on a woman?
Gu Jinniu got up from the ground, staring at Lin Cai: "What did you mean by what you just said?"
