Chapter 247 Can I Really Do It?
What Gu Wanxing didn't expect was that everyone was leaving.
She thought they could have a reunion dinner together.
However, since they all had jobs, she didn't say much. She suppressed her reluctance and saw everyone off.
She took out a lot of agricultural and sideline products from the space under the pretext of the goose eggs brought by Fu Zheng's mother and loaded them into the car for everyone.
She even packed her food for the trip in an insulated bucket so she could have something hot to eat along the way.
Several cars slowly drove out of the Gu family's alley, and the originally congested alley became deserted in an instant.
Gu Wanxing and his family of three watched the car turn the corner until they could no longer hear any sound, then they looked away.
"Let's go back. It's very cold."
After the trip to the police station, it was already dark. Gu Tianming thought that he hadn't done anything yet. Fortunately, there were a lot of extra dishes that were not served yesterday, so he could just heat them up and eat them.
No one has touched it anyway.
He also knew that his daughter was reluctant to leave. All good things must come to an end, and she had to leave sooner or later.
"Let's go." Fu Zheng took her hand and squeezed it to comfort her.
In his eyes, the little woman had always been a cold-hearted person, but he didn't expect to see an expression of reluctance on her face.
Gu Wanxing returned home feeling a little lost. She didn't know why, but she felt inexplicably depressed.
After returning home, Fu Zheng helped his father-in-law heat up the dishes and heated the kang in the east bedroom. After finishing all this work, it was already past seven o'clock in the evening when it was time for dinner.
Gu Tianming called his two cousins and nephew from the back room to accompany his new son-in-law.
"Sister, this coat is so beautiful. Let me try it on." Cuicui also came with her mother-in-law, holding Datou, and saw the beige cashmere coat hanging on the hanger.
It was so rare that she had only seen clothes like this on calendars.
"What are you trying to do? Don't move. You'll make your sister smell like urine." Zhao Liqiu was helping his grandson pee under the stove and glared at his daughter-in-law with disgust.
Gu Wanxing had just hung up the phone with her father when she heard the conversation between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. She smiled and said, "Just give it a try. It doesn't cost any money."
"Look, my sister doesn't mind, why are you minding her?"
Cuicui is the type of person who won’t get angry even if you criticize her, and won’t take it seriously even if she gets angry, so she gets along well with Zhao Liqiu.
She quite liked this young wife. As the saying goes, people from the same family are like family. Yinfeng was the kind of person who would sulk. She would never say anything in her heart, but she was quite vindictive.
So the fight between her and Gu Juanjuan was a real feud. They didn't talk to each other and cursed each other to death.
When Gu Qingqing and Cuicui quarreled, they would make up immediately.
"No, I'm too short, hahaha, I have to wear high heels."
Cuicui took off her cotton jacket, stuffed herself into it with great difficulty, and started sweeping the floor.
"Oh my, please lift it up, it's all dirty."
"It's okay, the ground isn't dirty."
"What's wrong with you? Can you please stop?" Zhao Liqiu was so angry that he wanted to hit her with a stove hook when he saw her still spinning around.
Gu Wanxing watched the interaction between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and a beautiful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
She saw that the clothes were not swept to the ground at all, and Cuicui deliberately angered her mother-in-law.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law laughed and joked for a while before sitting down to chat.
Somehow they ended up talking about Gu Lianlian, and Zhao Liqiu said that this was the third time she had been beaten this year.
"He might be mentally ill, Mom. Really, there was a woman in our village who was suspicious all the time. In the end, they got divorced. The man was very capable, but his wife said he was always flirting with other people."
Cuicui said as she breastfed her baby.
Zhao Liqiu's face was filled with melancholy: "You said your family already has two children, so how can a divorce be so easy?"
Gu Wanxing listened quietly for a while, and couldn't help asking, "Then why did my sister Lianlian give birth to two children when she knew what kind of person he was?"
Gu Lianlian had a good life in her previous life, but that was probably just an appearance, and only she knew the bitterness behind it.
Whether the shoes fit you or not is something only you know.
Zhao Liqiu seemed to be looking at his niece speechlessly. She had been married twice. Didn’t she know about the relationship between men and women?
Gu Wanxing met the aunt's gaze and realized belatedly that he might have asked the question in the wrong way, which led to misunderstanding.
"What I mean is, my sister has been beaten for a long time. If she knew he wasn't a good person, she should have just given birth to one child. It's rare that the family planning policy couldn't even plan for her."
"Your sister's first child is a girl, and the second child is a boy."
"I know. I'm talking about my sister. My brother-in-law is such a bad person that he shouldn't have a son."
"What else is there to say? If I had known earlier, why would I have waited until now?"
Zhao Liqiu sighed and was so worried that he couldn't sleep for the past few days.
"Sister, our eldest sister also wants a divorce. She said that since you've divorced, she wants one too, and she wants to bring both children back home. Regardless of whether she'll let us take them or not, where will we live if we bring them back? Xiao and I can't really let our sister move to the west room. That side room is cold in the winter and hot in the summer. Even a healthy person would get sick if she lived there."
Only then did Cuicui get to the point.
Gu Wanxing suddenly realized why the aunt came. Gu Lianlian wanted a divorce, but she had no place to stay.
Now she couldn't help but think about it. Once the million-dollar dowry came out, her relatives would definitely have some ideas.
"Aunt, what do you mean? Do you want my sister to get a divorce? I don't think it's a big deal. I don't care if others scold me. I live my own life and never live it in other people's mouths. But my sister has a temper like noodles. Do you think she can withstand the rumors after the divorce?"
The corners of her mouth curled up inadvertently and she spoke calmly.
Zhao Liqiu asked anxiously, "Wanxing, do you mean to let your sister make do with it?"
She still cries with heartache when she sees the dark footprint on her daughter's chest.
When the son went to see his daughter off, he said that his brother-in-law was good in every way, admitted his mistakes and apologized, and there was nothing wrong with him at all.
I wanted to find fault to beat him up, but I couldn't find any.
"You can't live with domestic violence. My eldest sister will get depression if it goes on for a long time. Let's try to get a divorce. If you can't find a job after the divorce, you can come to my factory. I'm going to hire people the previous year, and Cuicui can go there after weaning her baby. It's better than digging the land at home. Then you can save money and buy an apartment in the city for you and Xiao."
In fact, from the moment the aunt came in and seemed hesitant to speak, to the moment Cuicui brought up this topic, she should have thought that they were not just here to play.
Hearing this, both the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law stared at her with sparkling eyes.
Cuicui didn't expect there would be an unexpected surprise, and she immediately pulled out her son's granary.
"Sister, can I really do this? Can I go to work?"
"Of course, as long as you and your wife work hard, you can buy a house in ten years."
Gu Wanxing looked at her actions and said with amusement.
It seemed that Big Head was about to sleep, but his granary was suddenly pulled out, and he looked forward with half-closed eyes and small mouth.
"Mom, let's wean Datou tonight. You can take him to bed from now on."
Zhao Liqiu: ...
Didn’t you say you wanted to solve the problem for their eldest sister?
In fact, she didn't want her daughter to go to work. Having a little girl there was already troublesome enough, and she also had to send Qingqing abroad. How much money and favors would that cost?
I didn't want my eldest daughter to go to work.
She was thinking of borrowing some money to build a house for her son, and then renovate and expand the house at home, so that her two daughters would have a place to live when they came back.
