Chapter 15: Inseparable from Them
Was Gu Siqing really going to call the police? Of course not. The police today weren't as quick as the demon spirits of later generations. Besides, even if the police came, she might still get scolded.
Deng Zhiming, aren't you good at using suicide to scare people? I can do that too.
She was certain that none of the Deng family wanted to make a big deal out of this. If it did, it would be the Deng family that would be embarrassed. Especially Deng Zhiming, who had been desperately trying to commit suicide to avoid breaking off the engagement. If word got out, how would he still be able to hold his head up at work?
Humph! I'm a reborn sister, but I can't beat a bad sweet potato like you?
As expected, as soon as she reached the door, Zhao Fenglan yelled and rushed over to grab her arm, "Girl, why are you calling the police?"
"Shouldn't we call the police if he wants to commit suicide?" Gu Siqing opened her eyes wide and looked confused. Zhao Fenglan felt that it was impossible to reason with a little girl like her, so she pulled her hand and said to Gu Jianguo, "It's just a breakup of the engagement. You don't want everyone in the village to know, do you?"
"No," Gu Siqing said, pulling herself together as if to leave. "This is no small matter. This is a matter of life and death."
Zhao Fenglan: Why didn’t I realize that the fourth child of the Gu family was so annoying before?
Gu Jianguo knew his daughter was trying to scare the Deng family, so he couldn't let her down. He stood up and said, "Erhui, go with Xiaosi to the village committee and make a phone call. They've already used knives, so we have to call the police."
Gu Erhui nodded quickly and walked over to rescue Gu Siqing from Zhao Fenglan's grasp. As the two sisters were about to leave, Zhao Fenglan quickly grabbed one of them, preventing them from leaving.
If she lets them out, even if the police don't come, her son's reputation will be ruined.
Deng Erzhu was so angry that he kicked Deng Zhiming. "You can't get married or what? You're so desperate. If you're not ashamed, then I'm ashamed, and your uncle is ashamed too."
Deng Zhiming stood there blankly, knife in hand, not knowing what to do. Things weren't supposed to be like this!
Originally, he just wanted to use this method to scare the Gu family, especially Gu Yimin, so that she would listen to him obediently in the future, otherwise he would use suicide to deal with her.
He had a good idea, but he didn't expect that Gu Xiaosi would mess it up. Did he put away the knife now? Or not?
He was still hesitating and struggling when Deng Erzhu kicked him again. "Why are you still standing there? Do you really want to die?"
Deng Zhiming had no choice but to put away the knife. Everyone in the room breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Siqing and Gu Erhui walked back, and she thought of her past life. Every time her elder sister asked for a divorce, Deng Zhiming would threaten her with a knife, and then her elder sister would compromise.
Come to think of it, I'm too soft-hearted. If I were hard-hearted, I wouldn't care whether he lives or dies. If you, a scumbag, die, I'll be relieved. It's just right that you die!
If my elder sister had not been controlled by Deng Zhiming the first time, he would not have committed suicide so easily afterwards.
However, the fact that my eldest sister hadn't divorced for so many years in her previous life was also related to the current situation. Divorces were rare in this era, let alone filing for divorce.
There are few divorce lawsuits in big cities, let alone in rural areas.
"Let me put it this way. I'll deliver the things to you tomorrow and exchange the engagement letter for you." Gu Jianguo acted as if he was trying to get rid of them.
With the situation getting to this point, the Deng family naturally couldn't stay any longer and the whole family prepared to leave. Zhao Fenglan couldn't suppress her anger. She looked at Gu Yimin and sneered, "I wonder what good family you can marry in the future? Don't find a deadbeat and come to my house to cry."
"Don't worry," Gu Yimin looked at her calmly and said, "No matter who I marry, it's better than marrying into your family."
"Okay, okay, I want to see who you can marry."
Zhao Fenglan dragged Deng Zhiming out, and Deng Zhiming turned back to look at Gu Yimin deeply. Seeing the meat that was about to reach his mouth fly away like this, how could he be willing to accept it?
After the Deng family left, the Gu family sat in the hall in silence for a while. Gu Jianguo waved his hand and said, "Go do what you need to do."
Gu Siqing, Gu Erhui, and Gu Sanjing all returned to the house. Wang Yueju hugged Gu Yimin and said, "It's a good thing that the engagement was called off. Now we can finally see that the Deng family is not a good family. I don't know what life will be like if I marry into their family in the future."
Gu Yimin naturally knew this truth. She smiled at Wang Yueju and said, "I know. This is called stop loss."
Wang Yueju and Gu Jianguo didn't know what stop loss meant. Gu Yimin told them how Gu Siqing explained stop loss, and they both laughed when they heard it.
"Xiao Si is getting smarter and smarter." Wang Yueju said with a smile.
Gu Jianguo also grinned, thinking that maybe their family would really have a college student.
"Don't take it to heart," Gu Jianguo said to Gu Yimin, "It's a new society now, and there are divorces, not to mention breaking off engagements."
Gu Yimin nodded, "I'm fine." It's just that encountering this kind of thing makes me a little upset.
The three of them talked for a while and then went back to their rooms to rest. When Gu Yimin entered the room, she saw a basin of hot water placed in front of the bed. Gu Sanjing looked at her with a foot towel and smiled, "Sister, come, soak your feet and get rid of the bad luck."
Gu Yimin chuckled. It must have been Xiao Si's trick again. She walked over and took off her shoes and socks. When she put her feet in the foot basin, they began to warm up, and so did her heart.
"Sister, do you feel better now?" Gu Siqing came over and massaged her shoulders. "If you still feel uncomfortable, let Sanjing read her medical records to you."
Gu Yimin thought of Sanjing's hilarious medical report and laughed heartily. Seeing Gu Siqing mocking her medical report again, Gu Sanjing pounced on her and pressed her down on the bed to tickle her.
"Ha ha ha ha"
Gu Siqing was in pain, but she couldn't stop laughing. She didn't have the strength of Gu Sanjing, so she could only beg for mercy, "Third sister, my beautiful and lovely third sister, I was wrong, I was really wrong."
Gu Sanjing pressed on her and refused to let go. "Don't talk about the inspection again."
Gu Siqing quickly said "sincerely": "No, I won't say it again."
Gu Sanjing: "I told you you're a puppy."
"Yeah, it's a puppy."
Seeing her good attitude, Gu Sanjing relaxed his grip. Gu Siqing took advantage of her loosening her grip and turned over to press her down and tickle her. This time, it was Gu Sanjing's turn to laugh.
Gu Yimin and Gu Erhui ignored the two of them making a fuss. Gu Erhui sat next to Gu Yimin and whispered, "I think the cancellation of the engagement has something to do with Second Aunt and that Zhang Shuangping."
Gu Yimin put away the smile on her face, "I've thought about it. But if she thinks Deng Zhiming is good, then she will marry him." She finally understood now that no one in the Deng family is a good person.
"Looking at Zhao Fenglan's appearance, no one who marries into their family will have a good life." Gu Erhui sneered.
However, I still can't swallow this anger. Deng Zhiming, we can cancel the engagement if we feel it's not good enough, but you, Zhang Chuntao and Zhang Shuangping, are bullying by playing tricks behind the scenes.
