Chapter 308

....
308 So that’s how it is
Old master Zhou knew uncle Gu and Gu shouxin. The original owner, Gu shouxin, had been numbed by alcohol and gambling over the years. Other than these two things, there was only his white moonlight in his mind. He did not remember things as clearly as uncle Gu did when he was young.
Therefore, when Gu Nian said that Lu Zheng’s mother was the daughter of the town’s old master Zhou, Gu shouxin did not find any information about the Zhou family in the original owner’s memory.
If it was uncle Gu, he would definitely remember.
Uncle Gu still remembered Lu Zheng’s mother when she was young. Back then, grandma Xiao and grandma Gu were on good terms. Lu Zheng’s mother, Zhou roujia, was four years older than uncle Gu. Uncle Gu liked to play with pretty girls when they were young.
When Zhou roujia got married at sixteen, uncle Gu was only twelve and Gu shouxin was ten.
Not long after Lu Zheng was born, Zhou roujia passed away from illness. Grandma Xiao fell out with old master Zhou, and the Gu family never had any contact with old master Zhou again.
In Gu shouxin’s eyes, old Zhou had lost his wife and daughter, leaving only his granddaughter and grandson in the capital. He was a very pitiful old man.
uncle Zhou, we only dug out a bag and left half a bag for us to eat at home. We brought the other half for you to see. We haven’t dug out the rest. Gu shouxin replied.
“Shouxin, can you tell me what kind of crops you are?” Lord Zhou asked.
my daughter said that there weren’t many seeds, but one of the seeds you gave us had some sprouts. We cut it along the sprouts, then cultivated it for a while before planting it in the ground. Gu shouxin answered truthfully. This planting was to be promoted, and there was nothing to hide.
“So it’s like this! No wonder, no wonder! Your daughter is so smart!” Old Zhou suddenly understood and smacked his head.
When he asked the people in his Manor to plant it, he directly pressed down on one of them. He even complained that the bud was not good-looking and had someone break it off. No wonder it couldn’t grow out!
“Then, then what about the red potato and Golden Rice? Have you guys grown it?” Lord Zhou asked.
“It hasn’t gone underground yet. It looks like it can be preserved, so I plan to go underground after the first month. My wife said that she had seen the Golden Rice before. It wasn’t on the ground or underground, but on a pole. As for the red potato, she called it sweet potato. It grew underground like potatoes. So, we’re planning to mate.” Gu shouxin said.
“She’s seen it too! Where is he?” Lord Zhou asked in surprise.
These three seeds were obtained by him last year and bought from a foreigner. Shouxin’s wife had probably seen the foreigner last year and even knew his name. Could it be that shouxin’s wife knew the foreign language?
“The two of them have met outside, but I can’t tell where exactly. Uncle Zhou should have heard of my disgraceful acts from a few years ago. I’m really ashamed of my wife and daughter!” Gu shouxin said, embarrassed.
“So that’s how it is!” Old master Zhou nodded. Seeing Gu shouxin’s expression, he asked again, ” shouxin, you really didn’t do anything in the past. Tell me the truth, are you still thinking about that Xie jiaoniang? ”
Gu shouxin was stunned.
Old master Zhou saw that he was in a daze and felt a little resentful.”Do you know what your mother did for you? That xie jiao’s husband’s family was chased out of Zhou clan town by your mother alone. A few years ago, Xie jiaoniang lost her husband and was chased out by her husband’s family with her daughter. She wanted to blame you and you almost fell for it. You can’t still be thinking about Xie jiaoniang, right?”
