Chapter 54

They would not forget the kindness of the Gu family.

.....After helping to dry the fruit flesh, Wang Big Brother went out again to look for more fruits.

In the evening, he brought back more than a hundred pounds.

This time, not only Luo Ge and her family were surprised, but the other people who came to the Gu family to sell fruits were also greatly surprised.

But most of them were just envious of his personal ability, as the conditions in the mountains were the same for everyone, and how much you could find depended on your own skill. So they didn\'t say anything.

Moreover, they had also found quite a lot, with most of them going out of the village to find fruits, and the least amount they brought back was more than thirty pounds.

But unfortunately, there were still some who were jealous.

"Big Zhu, where did you go to find so many fruits? If you found a good place, how could you not take your aunt with you?"

Zhu Auntie stared at the plums in Wang Big Brother\'s basket with blazing eyes, her tone sour and resentful.

As she spoke, she tried to approach and reach her hand towards Wang Big Brother\'s basket.

Wang Big Brother\'s full name was Wang Zhu, and the Wang family had been passing down the name for generations, so many people in the village called him Big Zhu.

"You\'ve picked so many already, why don\'t you let your aunt borrow some today? Your aunt will pick some tomorrow and return them to you."

Luo Ge, following behind Gu Jinchen, heard these shameless words and was clearly startled for a moment.

Could someone really borrow something that was meant to be sold for money?

Fortunately, most people in the village knew Zhu Auntie\'s temperament, and Wang Big Brother was no fool either.

Without making a fuss, he avoided her and handed the basket to Gu Jinchen.

"I just found them up in the mountains. I went farther, so it\'s not safe for your aunt to take the risk."

Seeing Gu Jinchen steadily take the basket, he then turned and responded to Zhu Auntie.

He only answered the first part, and as for \'borrowing the fruits\', he simply ignored it.

Seeing the item she wanted slip away, Zhu Auntie\'s face darkened.

"Why can\'t I go with you? Don\'t tell me you\'re only thinking about yourself and not considering us relatives?"

As she spoke, she looked meaningfully at Luo Ge.

"Big Zhu, you can\'t have forgotten about us, your own family, just because your wife has made some new friends."

It was clear to anyone with eyes that Luo Ge and Wang Big Brother\'s wife had a good relationship.

Now that Luo Ge and her family had started a business with Li Shopkeeper, collecting plums and selling them, they were considered one of the more successful families in the village.

What Zhu Auntie meant was that since Wang Big Brother and his family had become close with the Gu family, they had forgotten about their own Wang family relatives.

She didn\'t say this at first, but when she did, Aunt Zhang\'s face darkened.

How dare she mention their own family now?

When their old man was seriously ill and needed money for treatment, where were these \'own family\' relatives?

If it hadn\'t been for Gu Family Second Son\'s father helping them out, their old man might not even be in this world anymore.

Moreover, over the past year or so, they had received no small amount of help from Gu Family Second Son.

"Auntie, you\'re at an age where you\'ve eaten more salt than my Big Zhu has eaten rice. Are there any mountains near our village that you don\'t know about?"

"The places that can be found have probably already been found by everyone. Our family\'s difficulties are there, and that\'s why Big Zhu has to take risks to earn money."

"He\'s clearly thinking about you, auntie. How can you slander him like that?"

Wang Big Brother was younger, so it was understandable that he might not have a good reason to argue with Zhu Auntie. But Aunt Zhang wasn\'t afraid.

Over the years, due to the family\'s poverty, she had endured no shortage of insults from these aunties, and her tongue had long been sharpened.

When Zhu Auntie was speaking, no one present made a sound, clearly hoping that if Zhu Auntie\'s words succeeded, they could get the location where the fruits were picked and also take advantage of it.

But after hearing Aunt Zhang\'s words, those with such intentions instantly gave up.

Because what Aunt Zhang said made sense. Their family did have a financial burden due to medical expenses.

From Wang Zhu\'s actions, it seemed he had likely gone deep into the mountains to find the fruits. After all, they knew he was always looking for work.

And their own families were just ordinary, not to the point where they needed to take such big risks for money.

If the money was ten times more, perhaps they might be tempted.

"How did I slander him? I was just making a casual remark."

"You from the Gu family, please weigh this for me."

Hearing Aunt Zhang\'s words, Zhu Auntie also knew she was in the wrong, and if it really was deep in the mountains, she didn\'t want to take the risk either.

She also knew that Aunt Zhang was not someone to be trifled with, so seeing that she couldn\'t get any benefits, she simply changed the subject.

She was next in line after Wang Big Brother, so Gu Jinchen took the cloth bag from her upon hearing her request.

But when he opened the bag and looked inside, Gu Jinchen\'s face immediately darkened, and he handed it back directly.

"We don\'t accept these fruits here," he said coldly and firmly. Luo Ge, standing behind him, also frowned when she saw the bag.
