Chapter 324 Grandpa Gu Entrusts His Wife with His Last Words

"Dad, Mom, we're here. What are you doing?"

Gu Xiaogu's family came over; there were quite a few of them.

"I'm here to settle my affairs after I'm gone, so stop talking nonsense. If you want to listen, sit quietly and let the children go out and play. If you don't want to listen, just go home."

After Grandpa Gu finished speaking, he closed his eyes to rest again.

Gu Xiaogu was embarrassed, but she didn't say anything. She realized the seriousness of the situation and found a place to sit down with her husband, son, and daughter-in-law.

"The funeral will be simple, and I will cover the expenses myself using my salary."

Over the years, my wife and I haven't saved much money. After the funeral, the rest will be left for your mother to live on in her old age.

The place we live in belongs to the state. After I leave, your mother can continue to live there. Once she's gone, that's it."

Grandma Gu had already started wiping away tears. She didn't know what her life would be like without her husband.

They have some money, but how much will be left after paying for his funeral?

The old lady looked around. Her eldest son's family was a mess, her second son was gone, and could she really count on her favorite grandson? Her third son had schemed his whole life but never figured anything out.

Forget it, let nature take its course!

After listening for so long, it was all over, and everyone's disappointment was palpable.

Bonnie and Sister-in-law Gu exchanged a glance. Seeing their undisguised sadness, they suddenly wanted to laugh, but quickly lowered their heads. This was not the time to burst out laughing.

Gu Ze and Gu Ye exchanged glances. The old man finally understood and suppressed his restless heart.
