Quick Wear: Who said soft girls have to be obedient! biu!

The world outside is exciting, but also dangerous.

But it's better than being hurt by your loved ones.

Just as Gu Zhen was about to say a few more words of comfort, Qiu Paner came over, with her belly bulging, and said softly to them, "Zhao Di, Laidi, help your mother go out and fetch some water. It's so cold, how can we bear it without soaking our feet?"

There was worry in her eyes and she had no idea how outrageous her words were, as if it was natural.

It was raining heavily outside, the distant mountains were shrouded in mist, and even the road could not be seen clearly. She asked two teenage girls to go out to collect rain water.

Gu Zhaodi was about to stand up reflexively, but her hand was held down by Gu Zhen.

"Sister, you have a fever, how can you go out in the rain?" Gu Zhen held her tightly. Gu Zhaodi was not as strong as her, so she couldn't get up for a while.

Qiu Pan'er didn't realize anything. She frowned and said, "Laidi, go get a basin and bring it back when it's full. It won't take long."

As the heroine of the book, Qiu Pan'er is not bad-looking, but there is always a kind of pity on her face, as if she is the saint of the world, born to save the world.

If you want to do good deeds, don't drag others into it. Gu Zhen tilted his head, rested his head on Gu Zhaodi's shoulder, and said weakly: "Mom, I feel a little uncomfortable too. Please feel sorry for us. We are fleeing famine, not coming here to enjoy life. Why do we need to soak our feet?"

She would not let Gu Zhaodi be like in the original book, where she went to fetch water on a rainy day and developed a high fever in the middle of the night. Fortunately, she was lucky enough to survive, otherwise she would have died here.

Qiu Pan'er was stunned when she heard this. Although her second daughter was sneaky, she had never talked back to her like this. She was unable to react for a moment.

But she quickly thought of what to say. She straightened her back and squatted down. Qiu Paner touched her two daughters' heads earnestly and said, "My children, I love you too, but no matter what time it is, you must remember that filial piety is the most important. Have you forgotten what I tell you every day?"

As a woman, it is her duty to serve her parents-in-law, respect her parents, care for her husband, be friendly to her sisters-in-law, and carry on the family line.

How can you forget how to write the word "filial piety" just because of a little difficulty?

Qiu Pan'er was slightly dissatisfied. Even her eldest daughter started to disobey her today.

"Go, you can keep each other company if you go together. Hurry up and fetch some water, everyone is waiting for it!" After she said that, she sighed, as if her two daughters had done something terribly disobedient.

"Mom, why don't you go?" Gu Zhen blinked innocently.

Qiu Paner looked at her belly and said, "Your brother is still in my belly. How can I get caught in the rain and catch a cold? This is the hope of our second house. There can't be any mistakes."

"Oh, then why doesn't the aunt go?"

"My eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, how can I leave?"

"Why doesn't my aunt go?"

"Jingning is a young lady at home, how can she do such rough work?"

Gu Zhen's tone became even colder: "My eldest and second cousins ​​are not young anymore, and they are strong men, why don't they go? I see that in other families, the men are in charge, and the women just hide in the cave and wait, why are we the opposite?"

Qiu Pan'er patiently reasoned, "The inheritance of family and business is the backbone of the family. You will take the imperial examinations in the future. Doing these things will only waste your abilities."

She looked down on those women who made men work hard. As a woman, she was born to serve men. Only when the man at home has no worries can he make a name for himself outside and make things better for the women and children at home.

Qiu Paner has had this way of thinking since she was a child.

"What mother meant was that everyone in this family is important, but my eldest sister and I are useless and deserve to serve everyone else, right?"

Qiu Pan'er was stunned: "That's not what I meant, but...but these are what we should do. Lai Di, you are still young and ignorant, mother doesn't blame you, what about Zhao Di? You are also like your sister, not listening to mother?"

As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes and she looked like she was hurt by her daughter.

Gu Zhen quietly poked the dazed elder sister, and she seemed to understand, and lowered her head with a pale face.

Neither of the two daughters paid any attention to her. Qiu Paner felt a little embarrassed. After a while, she stood up helplessly and said, "Forget it, I'll go by myself. Alas... I've spoiled you all."

When she has time in the future, she will definitely educate her two daughters well, and make them virtuous, sensible, generous and polite.

Qiu Paner got up, went to where her family was staying, found a wooden basin, and was about to walk out with it.

No one in the Gu family paid any attention to her, and they all huddled together for warmth.

Gu Zhaodi still couldn't bear to do that to her own mother, so after thinking about it she decided to help. Gu Zhen cried out, holding her stomach and screaming, which attracted Gu Zhaodi's attention.

She said with concern: "Second sister, what's wrong? Are you hungry? Eat that snack quickly."

Gu Zhen noticed that Qiu Pan'er had gone out in the rain, and immediately let go of her hand, "It's okay, sister. It doesn't hurt anymore."

Gu Zhaodi realized something and tapped her forehead helplessly: "You, you have always been full of ulterior motives. She is our biological mother, and she is pregnant with my brother. It's nothing for us to help her with some work!"

"With so many people at home not doing anything, it seems that she is capable. She has to take charge of everything, big or small. It's okay if she wants to be a filial daughter-in-law and a virtuous wife, but don't use your own daughter as an example. Sister, think carefully tonight. Where do you rank in your mother's heart?"

Gu Zhaodi didn't say anything, the answer was obvious.

There are twelve people in the family, young and old, plus her unborn brother, a total of thirteen, and she is ranked last.

She was never full and never had warm clothes to wear. While others were sleeping, she had already gotten up early to chop wood, boil water and cook.

Whenever her eldest and second cousins ​​got into trouble since childhood, Qiu Pan'er would always take the blame.

Being forced to kneel, starve and have the palms slapped were commonplace.

Everyone in the family has someone who protects them unconditionally, except Gu Zhaodi, who is the only one who is loved and cared for by no one and is always the one who is wronged.

Gu Zhaodi buried her face in her palms, her chest aching.

It's not like she hadn't thought about leaving, but she had nowhere to go and she always succumbed to her mother's pleading and tears.

It’s not that Qiu Pan’er doesn’t love her two daughters, it’s just that her love for them is too little, so they are always ranked last.

Gu Zhen felt that this elder sister was not beyond redemption and could still be taught.

She poked Gu Zhaodi's arm and pointed outside: "Sister, look, she can get water by standing at the entrance of the cave, but she insisted on going out. Does she think her filial piety is touching?"

Gu Zhaodi was amused by her sister and chuckled. She also noticed from the corner of her eyes that many people in the cave were pointing at her and whispering.

No one was moved by Qiu Pan'er, instead they thought she was sick.

Gu Zhaodi's smile faded, and her love and heartache for Qiu Pan'er dissipated a lot invisibly.

At this time Qiu Paner also came back with water. She was soaked all over and walked into the cave with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

The rainwater was muddy, so she squatted there waiting for the mud and sand to settle. She didn't mind the trouble and carefully scooped out clean water from it.

Qiu Pan'er was busy all by herself. After boiling water, she went to serve her parents-in-law first. Due to limited conditions, the two of them squeezed into one basin to wash.

After they finished washing, Qiu Pan'er poured water for the four people in the eldest house. She took the remaining hot water and washed and wiped her husband's feet herself.

Gu Jingping held the book in his arms the entire time, leaning lazily there without even raising his head, apparently he had gotten used to all this.

Everyone around was curling their lips at each other. They had heard that the second daughter-in-law of the Gu family rice and noodle shop was virtuous and filial. Seeing her today, they found that she was really as famous as her reputation.

Gu Zhen laughed when he saw this, but Gu Zhaodi beside him couldn't even laugh and just felt sad.

"Second sister, you said that great-grandmother is also an elder, why doesn't mother care?" Gu Zhaodi said softly.
