Quick Wear: After Binding the Childbearing System, I Played the Pig and Eat the Tiger
Chapter 395 Snowstorm 30
But after walking around, most of the shops were closed.
There are a few shops that are open, but they have nothing to do with food or clothing.
"Boss, why are all these shops closed? Have they sold out of cloth?"
Guo Jingming saw a shop open and walked in and asked.
"It's snowing so hard and for so many days in a row. The fabrics and food have long been sold out. Do you want to buy furniture?"
The boss asked immediately, they ran a furniture store and the Chinese New Year was almost approaching.
So he stockpiled a lot of furniture, but now it's snowing so heavily that people can't go out and he can't sell his furniture.
They are in the south, and it doesn't normally snow this heavily. I don't know what happened this year?
"Well, come back and buy it after the heavy snow."
Guo Jingming quickly quit his shop.
"Since there's nothing to sell, let's go back first. It'll take quite some time to get back, and it'll be dark soon."
Guo Daoyou said that it was impossible to buy what he needed now anyway.
Just as they turned around and walked away for a while, they met Mr. Chen coming over with a few servants.
“Third son-in-law, it’s great to meet you! Did you stock up a lot of things before the snow?
Our family is running out of food. As my son-in-law, you should at least show some respect to me as your father-in-law.
After all, you are a scholar, and your father-in-law is half a father to you."
Mr. Chen wanted to ask him for food, and he did not hide it at all.
The main reason is that their food had been sold out a long time ago, and now there is not much food left at home.
His family had a grain store, but because of a rumor that grain was too easy to sell and too expensive, he sold all the grain in the store.
Originally, I thought it wouldn't take too long to transfer food from other places, so it wouldn't matter if it was sold out.
However, the large amount of food he transferred from other places had not arrived yet, and it had already started snowing heavily.
Now he didn't know where the food was and there wasn't much food at home, so he was worried.
"Father-in-law, I also want to honor you, but I'm just an ordinary farmer, how can I have any money?
Before it snowed, I only bought enough food for our family of four. I would like to stock up more, but I really can't afford that much money.
Father-in-law, please see if other families have any extra food. We really don’t have any.”
Guo Jingtian frowned when he saw it was him, but he could only explain.
"Guo Jingtian, you are a scholar, you can't do such a thing as abandoning your parents.
No matter what, since you are my son-in-law, you have to take care of my food and drink. This is only natural.
So you have to give me half of your family's food, so that neither of us will starve to death, and you can also gain a good reputation. "
Mr. Chen quickly asked a servant to go back and call more people over.
"Father-in-law, you are being too demanding. If I give you the food, what will we eat?
Although you are my father-in-law, I still have my biological father. I will not let my biological father starve just for you, my father-in-law. This is impossible."
"Let's go."
Guo Jingtian didn't want to argue with him here, so he just called a few brothers and left.
"Guo Jingtian, you can't be so heartless and ungrateful. You had a reputation of being a wife-killer, and no one was willing to marry their daughter to you.
It is because I agreed to let my daughter marry you that you can get married.
You can't turn your back on me now. As a scholar, how can you pass the imperial examinations in the future if you are so heartless and disloyal?"
When Mr. Chen saw that he was about to leave, he hurried after them. He had finally seen his son-in-law, so how could he let him go so easily?
The Chen Mansion really doesn't have much food left. If they don't find a way to get some back, they will really have no food to eat if the snow doesn't stop.
When Guo Jingtian saw them chasing him, he immediately hid behind a few of his brothers and gave them a wink.
“Don’t come over here again, or don’t blame us for being rude.
Mr. Chen, my cousin has just said that how can a father-in-law be compared to one's own father.
Besides, you are a wealthy man, how can you ask for food like us peasants? This is too shameful."
Guo Jinglin immediately pulled out his knife and pointed it at them.
"Mr. Chen, please don't make things difficult for my brother Guo Jingtian. We also came to the town to find food.
Otherwise, with such heavy snow, there would be no need for us to run to town.
If my brother's family has more food, it is for us brothers, not for you outsiders."
Guo Jingming also drew his knife and pointed it at Chen Yuanwai and the others. Without his cousin's permission, they did not dare to use the knife, after all, he was his father-in-law.
But now it is obvious that his cousin doesn't want to have any disputes with his father-in-law, so they don't need to be polite.
"Guo Jingtian, you ungrateful villain, I married my daughter to you, and now you treat me, your father-in-law, like this.
If my daughter knew you did this, she would never live with you.
With your reputation of being unlucky in marriage, you can only dream of marrying a girl from a good family."
Seeing that they all had knives in their hands, Mr. Chen did not dare to rush over with his men. He could only stand opposite and point at Guo Jingtian and curse loudly.
Now, apart from threatening him like this, is there no other way to deal with him?
They were all wearing straw raincoats, so at first it was not apparent that they were carrying knives.
"Don't worry about this, I believe you won't starve to death.
You have so much money, at most you can use some of it to buy food, and someone will probably sell it to you."
Guo Jingtian reminded him to pay a high price for food, as food was more important than money at this time.
After he said that, he winked at his cousins, asking them to leave as soon as possible to avoid getting entangled with the Chen family.
Guo Jingming and his friends were all holding knives, so Chen Yuanwai and his friends didn't dare to continue chasing them.
Half an hour later, Guo Jingtian and his friends finally left Qingyun Town.
"Jingtian, isn't your father-in-law very rich? Why is there no food?
Isn't the Chen's grain store in our town owned by them?"
Guo Jingming asked with some surprise, saying that these poor people knew to save some food.
With so much money, why didn't they save some food?
“It’s theirs. I reminded him before it snowed. As for what he was going to do, who knows!
Never mind him, let’s just go quickly, it will be even harder to walk when it gets dark.”
After saying this, Guo Jingtian quickened his pace. He wanted to go back early to be with his wife.
"If your sister-in-law really knows about this, will she make trouble with you?"
Guo Jingming was afraid that it would affect the relationship between him and his wife. This brother finally got married and now he doesn’t have any children.
"It's okay, she won't. She's mine now, so she has to listen to me."
Guo Jingtian didn't care much about what Chen Yuanwai had just said. Now he and his wife had a very good relationship.
It's impossible to stop living with him just because of a father-in-law like this.
But he still wanted to go faster. No matter what, he had to go back and have a good talk with his wife.
If she really wants to take charge of the Chen Mansion, that's up to her, as long as she leaves some food for their family of four.
