That's true. Gu Hansheng has a bad temper; he's henpecked and lacks any manliness or responsibility.
Ning An's only requirement for her daughter is that she shouldn't come back to her if anything happens.
But I have to bring the money back every month.
It's as if having a daughter means you're obligated to support your maternal family.
She herself couldn't do it, and she even frequently went to her parents' home to beg for money.
Yet he makes such demands of his daughter; I don't know where he gets his confidence from.
Unfortunately, these daughters were all raised to be somewhat timid and weak-willed.
Gu Honglan was probably the only one among the five sisters who was rebellious and liked to defy the Heavenly Gang.
The others are all too weak.
My older sister saw it today, and it seems she's become a little rebellious.
I haven't met that second sister yet.
In my memories of my past life, it was many years later.
By then, the older sisters seemed to have grown old and were already in charge of the household.
But none of them seem to be anything substantial, a bit petty.
But there is one thing that stands out: he is very "filial" to Ning An.
The atmosphere was somewhat awkward as we walked.
Gu Yunyang didn't know what he had to say to them.
Gu Honglan and Gu Hongmei didn't know how to start the conversation, as if anything they said would be wrong.
Upon arriving at the commune, Gu Honglan finally spoke: "My sister married into the commune, she lives on that street over there. Secretary Gu, we'll part ways here."
Gu Yunyang nodded, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "It's a new society now. As the great man said, women hold up half the sky. Women have their own hands and feet, and they don't necessarily have to rely on men to make a living."
After saying that, he nodded and smiled, "I have some things to do at the commune, so I'll be leaving now."
Watching Gu Yunyang's retreating figure, Gu Honglan seemed lost in thought.
Gu Hongmei asked curiously, "Third Sister, what did he mean by what he just said?"
"What do you mean?" Gu Honglan said with a hint of exasperation, "It means that you, as a woman, should be self-reliant. Don't be too weak. I'm not trying to criticize you, but I came here once before and told you that the Zhou family is just a bully who picks on the weak and fears the strong. Look, when I came to their door, who in the Zhou family dared to bully me? If you don't become self-reliant, others will naturally come and bully you."
Gu Hongmei shrank back, unsure of what to say.
Seeing her behavior, Gu Honglan was speechless.
But she also knew that her sisters had been spoiled rotten by her mother, Ning An.
Somewhat pathetic.
"Big sister, have you ever thought about this? If you can't stand living in the Zhou family anymore, why don't you get a divorce?"
"Divorce?" Gu Hongmei suddenly asked loudly, then shook her head like a rattle drum: "If this woman gets divorced, her reputation will be ruined."
She was genuinely terrified; that was the philosophy Ning An had consistently instilled in her.
No matter how heartbroken a woman is, she should not get a divorce.
Divorced women never have a good life.
Moreover, this is also the current trend.
Even if it's incredibly difficult, a woman will still try to make it through, rather than get a divorce.
After a pause, Gu Hongmei said, "Besides, where would I live after the divorce? My parents definitely won't let me go back."
Gu Honglan opened her mouth, but couldn't say a word.
She's already twenty and still not married.
One reason was that Ning An wanted to sell her for a high price, and another was that she had her own ideas and didn't want to follow Ning An's wishes to find someone who was willing to pay a high price but didn't like her.
I can't live like that.
But like Gu Hongmei, she didn't have the support of her parents, and even after she got married, she didn't have the support of her family.
Without the support of her husband's family, she would definitely face difficulties in her husband's family.
She didn't want to live that kind of life.
"Gu Yunyang? He..."
Gu Honglan thought of Gu Yunyang, but still shook her head: "He definitely doesn't want to come back. And it's true, even I would want to run away from a mother like that."
He's never come back, so he doesn't want to face this situation. Why should I drag him into this mess at home for my own sake?
The Gu family's life isn't exactly comfortable. They're rich, educated, and currently the village party secretary. Why would they come back to the Gu family to suffer?
