Chapter 148 Gu Mingzhu's Unremitting Self-improvement
"Don't worry, uncle. I'm not like some people who like to be a mother to other people's children. The one coming out of my belly is definitely my son."
Everyone in the Gu family knew that Gu Qiuping's eldest daughter fell in love with a divorced man and was eager to become his stepmother.
He didn't even clean up his own daughter's backyard, and yet he got involved in his nephew's house, not feeling ashamed at all.
As soon as these words were spoken, Gu Qiuping became angry and was about to retort.
The old man interrupted them unhappily, "Alright. Mingzhu's pregnancy is a good thing. If you can't help the company, don't hold Mingzhu back. Xiaochen is in college now. Come join the company and help out when you're ready. This will save your sister from running around with a big belly."
"I understand, Grandpa."
After the old man spoke, no one else spoke.
The birthday party finally went smoothly.
After the meal, everyone said goodbye.
There were so many people around that Shen Qingning didn't go over to ask if she was really pregnant.
"Gu Chen, let's go."
"I'll take you there."
A few people walked out, and Shen Qingning glanced behind them. Gu Cang and the others had not left yet.
"Gu Chen. Are you guys going back to the old house to see your grandfather off later?"
"Yeah. Isn't it like this every year?"
Gu Chen was not interested.
After the banquet, I still have to go back to see that annoying family. It’s so annoying.
"I think your second aunt came prepared. They didn't succeed today, so be careful or they might target you."
"Tsk, are you afraid of them? I'll scold every one of them."
"Awesome!" Shen Qingning patted his shoulder and said, "Keep going. Let's go."
"See you at school tomorrow."
"Okay."
Shen Qingzhi and Fu Xin were still chatting. Shen Qingzhi had just found out that he was with Tian Shuang.
"Congratulations, then."
Shen Qingzhi discovered by accident that Fu Xin liked Tian Shuang.
Among them, Fu Xin and Gu Mingzhu talked about work the most. The two of them were very serious and there was no chemistry between them.
On the contrary, when facing Tian Shuang, Fu Xin's eyes became gentle.
After so many times, it was hard for Shen Qingzhi not to notice.
However, Tian Shuang has been studying abroad in recent years, and the two have had little contact except for meeting during the New Year holidays.
Unexpectedly, he still got the chance now.
"Thank you. What about you? When do you plan to be with Mr. Si?" Fu Xin asked.
Shen Qingzhi thought of Si Yanming, and his thin lips curled up slightly: "No rush."
"I thought people like Mr. Si would be very strong in relationships, but I didn't expect Qing Zhi to be more skilled. He had him hooked." Fu Xin's words were full of admiration: "You are really amazing."
Facing his friend's praise, Shen Qingzhi smiled and said, "If you are not a fish, how can you know the joy of a fish?"
"Yes. I think Mr. Si is really enjoying it."
Fu Xin was chatting with him when the phone in his pocket rang. He took it out and saw that it was a call from Tian Shuang.
The Gu family is treating us today.
Tian Shuang didn't come. The reason was similar.
All of them have a good relationship with Gu Mingzhu, but they really look down on other people in the Gu family.
Mingzhu won't mind anyway.
She went out to have dinner with her sisters.
Fu Xin answered the phone and said goodbye to Shen Qingzhi: "I'm going to pick up Xiaoshuang. See you later."
"good"
Shen Qingzhi waved to him and turned around to see Shen Qingning and Si Moting coming out.
"Brother. Wanna go together?"
"Okay." As soon as Shen Qingzhi finished speaking, a car stopped across the street.
Immediately afterwards, Si Yanming got out of the car. He was wearing a black shirt and his tie was torn off. It looked like he had just finished a dinner.
Shen Qingning winked at her eldest brother in an ambiguous way: "Looks like we can't go together."
Shen Qingzhi poked his forehead with his index finger: "You are such a smart kid. It's getting late, you two should go back."
"Okay." Shen Qingning tilted her head and waved to Si Yanming: "Brother Si, bye."
"Yeah," Si Yanming nodded, ignoring his brother and turning directly to Shen Qingzhi: "Let's go. I'll take you there."
"Didn't you drink?"
"No. I drank juice."
"Then let's go."
Gu Qiuping, who came out from the back, saw that both the Shen brothers had been taken away by the Si family. She said indignantly, "I don't know what the Shen family has done. They really climbed up the social ladder."
"Who knows? Si Yanming is very picky. I've never heard of him liking anyone in all these years in Jingang City. But now he treats Shen Qingzhi differently." Gu Qiulan was also very envious.
"Tsk. Shen Qingzhi is so arrogant that he rejected so many people. Now he is offering himself to Si Yanming for the sake of the Shen family. What a pretense."
"Okay, keep your voice down."
The man beside her couldn't stand it any longer and interrupted them: "Walls have ears, be careful of the Si family causing trouble."
Things have gotten so bad for the Bai family recently, who in Jingang City would dare to discuss the Si family's affairs at this critical juncture?
As a result, Shen Qingzhi's gossip became less frequent.
The two aunts of the Gu family shut up in dissatisfaction.
"A good dog stays out of the way."
Gu Chen came out from behind and saw them standing together at the door, their faces full of annoyance.
Who knows who these two people will plot against each other when they are together.
"You little bastard, your words are becoming more and more rude." Gu Cang cursed from behind.
Gu Chen rolled his eyes: "I have a father who gave birth to me but no father who taught me, so of course I have no rules."
"you"
"Okay. What are you arguing about?"
Gu Mingzhu supported Old Man Gu, who was leaning on his cane and scolding the father and son, said, "Hurry up and leave after you finish eating. Xiaochen, go home with Grandpa."
"Okay, Grandpa. I'll drive."
The old man now lives alone in the old house.
Gu Cang insisted on marrying the woman outside, and the old man was so angry that he drove them out.
As for the other daughters, they all got married and naturally did not live in the old house.
Sending the person back will inevitably lead to verbal battles.
In particular, a few people were chattering non-stop around Gu Mingzhu's belly.
Gu Mingzhu didn't respond and just said that they would talk about it in ten months, and sent them away.
Seeing that they couldn't do anything to her for the time being, those people left one by one.
Wait until everyone has left.
Mr. Gu took his granddaughter in his arms and said earnestly, "You've really thought it through. If you do IVF, you'll have to be both a father and a mother in the future."
Just now at the banquet, Mr. Gu didn't say much.
He knew his granddaughter well. She had her own ideas since she was young, and once she made a decision, she would rarely change it.
Gu Mingzhu knew that he had guessed that she was not pregnant, so she lost her domineering attitude in public and became more childish instead.
"Grandpa, don't worry about me. I couldn't get through it before, let alone now that I'm older. And I don't want them to embarrass me because of the issue of continuing the family line."
After my mother died.
For a long time, she had only her younger brother to rely on.
Fighting back was difficult, especially for a woman. If she hadn't had a younger brother behind her, Gu Mingzhu wouldn't have been able to stand up so strongly.
"Grandpa knows. I just feel sorry for you."
