Chapter 7

Gu Yunshen, as a father, treated the two daughters in totally different ways.

Gu Qingyao was his treasure but he was very indifferent to Gu Ruoqing.

Gu Ruoqing complained about how biased Gu Yunshen was but she forgot how her mother Zhang Xiaohui was also biased to her. Gu Qingyao, to her, was like an enemy.

The drama that happened today was planned by them.

They found a random gangster to ruin Gu Qingyao.

The Gu Family was having a bad reputation. If something ugly happened to Gu Qingyao, she would definitely be condemned by everyone. She would never be that arrogant daughter in the family anymore!

However, it was such a pity that the plan did not work.

Mo Beihan brought Gu Qingyao away suddenly and ruined their plan!

On the other side, Gu Qingyao was full from all the dishes. Her stomach was finally satisfied.

Mo Beihan found her funny but at the same time, he was sad to see that.

After taking away all the remaining dishes, they left the restaurant.

But he was not in a rush anymore. They were safe from the city. The tragedy in the previous life would not happen anymore. Nothing would happen to Yao Yao as long as he remained cautious.

Mo Beihan noticed the clothes Gu Qingyao was wearing were full of patches. He then led her to the supply store.

“Why are we here?”

Gu Qingyao was excited when she was reborn. She wanted to go back home and visit her grandmother who had passed away in her previous life.

“Buy some goods for you. It’s rare for me to get a leave and I’m leaving soon. It won’t be easy for me to buy things for you.”

Gu Qingyao did not say anything but looked at herself.

Actually, she got everything in the space, from food to clothes. It was just that she could not take them out.

“It’s okay, Brother Beihan. I just want to go home now. Can we head back?”

She wanted to visit her grandmother immediately. In her previous life, grandmother passed away and was worried about her before her death. She really wanted to see her grandmother now.

Grandma was alone at home now and she definitely did not eat properly. She needed to go back now since she had taken away so much food. It was just nice for Grandmother to have a nice lunch.

Mo Beihan thought that she was terrified by what happened yesterday and that was why she wanted to go home. He did not insist anymore. He could come any time if he wanted to buy goods for her.

“Alright, then we’ll go to the food store to buy some meat so you can have better meals at home. It will only take a short while, okay?”

How was the food at the state-run restaurant enough?

She needed more food for her skinny body.

Gu Qingyao did not reject. Even when she wanted to take things out from her space, there must be such things in the outside world first. She could take out slowly but not all of a sudden.

They reached the food store soon.

The Gu family definitely would not be short of vegetables as everyone grew their own rice and vegetables. Thus, Mo Beihan only aimed at meat.

The food store was only left with a kilogram of pork rib and a fish. Mo Beihan bought all and brought Gu Qingyao back to the Gu family, at the Qing River Brigade.

The Qing River Brigade’s soil was more fertile so they were still relatively more fruitful. Their lives here were also slightly better than other brigades around.

However, it was really slightly better. No one in the seventies was able to live a good life.

This was a villa that an ancestor of the Gu family had chosen. After the war erupted and the situation became precarious, the entire Gu family moved here in search of stability.

The ancestor of the Gu family had been a major landowner and all the land that belonged to the Qing River Brigade once belonged to the Gu family.

Later, all the family’s property was seized and their land was distributed to the farmers.

The Gu family lived by itself on the margins of the Qing River Brigade, halfway up the hill.

Because their family was a bad element, all the other families avoided them and refused to stay with them.

Grandfather Gu, Gu Chonghua, was a major landowner. Grandma Wen Ruyu was the daughter of a great financier in Old Shanghai. The two of them were considered to be utterly despicable because of their background.

Fortunately, Grandfather Gu had made large donations to support the war effort and had continued to treat patients in the village with his youngest son. This had allowed the entire family to continue to survive in peace.

In those days, doctors were rarely found in villagers. Many who fell ill could only wait for death. The presence of the Gu family’s father and son in the Qing River Brigade gave the common folk there much peace of mind.

Mo Beihan drove the car and sent Gu Qingyao back to the Gu House.

When she saw the familiar cowshed, Gu Qingyao’s eyes turned red.

That’s right, that was the cowshed!

Their entire family lived in the cowshed.

The Gu family was a bad element and after the founding of the nation, their property was seized. Grandfather and Grandma had been sent to this cowshed to undergo reeducation through labor. They did the dirtiest work and received the smallest share of work points.

Grandfather and Grandma were old, and Father had been worried about them, so he had moved into the cowshed with the two old people. Their family had been in the eye of the storm then. Even if he had the ability to build a separate house, he also did not dare to make a careless move.
