Chapter 385 Make It Clear
After Gu Siqing and the others returned home, Wu Dani started clamoring to return to Lizhou. After attending the wedding, she felt even more that Wang Yueju was not to be trifled with, and that it would be better for her to return to Lizhou as soon as possible and stay away from her. Not only did she think so, but Zhang Chuntao also thought so.
Seeing this, Gu Jianguo could only ask someone to buy them train tickets. However, even if they bought them, they would only be for tomorrow. Gu Jianguo called Gu Xueqiang to his study to talk about some business matters. Gu Jianguo was naturally very happy that his nephew was so promising.
Wang Yueju and Huang Lifang were chatting, though they weren't very familiar with each other, so they just talked about family matters. Wang Yueju had a good impression of Huang Lifang before, thinking she was knowledgeable and quiet, and that it would be a good match for Gu Xueqiang to find someone like her.
But as they chatted, things didn't seem very good. When talking about her family situation, Huang Lifang started talking about how difficult her family was, and how she was able to go to college because her family was supporting her, and how she wanted to repay them in the future.
There was nothing wrong with her saying that; any grateful person would do the same. But when she later started to hint at buying a house and bringing her family to Lizhou, and it seemed like she wanted Gu Xueqiang to buy the house, Wang Yueju's smile faded.
Wang Yueju watched Gu Xueqiang grow up, so her heart was definitely with him. Although Gu Xueqiang was now making money and had no pressure to support Huang Lifang's family, why should he support them? As an elder, she certainly didn't want Gu Xueqiang to marry a daughter-in-law whose family background was very troublesome.
But she was only the eldest aunt after all, not Gu Xueqiang's biological mother, so some things were hard to say. She smiled faintly and said, "It's not easy for you to go to school. The student from Tsinghua University who tutors Xiao Si is in a similar situation to you. That child is just like you, very hard-working. He goes to school and works outside to earn money, all for the sake of making life better for the family.
You're young, so it's okay to endure some hardships. Xueqiang also endured a lot when he started his business. You're young and a college student, so as long as you work hard, there's nothing you can't accomplish. Buying a house in Lizhou isn't difficult, only four or five thousand yuan. You can save up that money after working hard for a few years. If you're short a few hundred or a thousand yuan, let Xueqiang help you out."
Huang Lifang: “”
That wasn't what she was thinking. Four or five thousand yuan, that's all. The school had already assigned her a job at the post office, with a monthly salary of forty yuan. With her salary, how could she ever save enough?
But what could she say?
Wang Yueju didn't want to say so much to her, so she declined, saying that she had something to do. Huang Lifang went back to her room to rest.
That night, Wang Yueju told Gu Jianguo about Huang Lifang. "She looked like a good girl, but who knew she was so confused. If you want to repay your parents and brothers, then you should work hard. I hate those women who don't know how to restrain themselves and take things from their parents' homes."
Gu Jianguo frowned upon hearing this. He didn't mind Huang Lifang asking Gu Xueqiang to buy a house for her family, as it didn't cost much. Instead, he felt Huang Lifang was a bit confused. If Xueqiang married such a wife, his future would be difficult.
His life was already miserable enough, with parents like that, and if he also had a wife who wasn't very understanding, how would he get by? After thinking for a moment, he said, "I'll go talk to Xue Qiang."
He got up and went out. He knocked on Gu Xueqiang's door, then went in and gave him some instructions. Finally, he said, "You're not that old, so it's okay to get married later."
"Well, I know. I'll make things clear to her when I get back." Gu Xueqiang said.
Seeing that he was decisive in doing things, Gu Jianguo patted him on the shoulder and said, "Now you should focus on your career."
Gu Xueqiang hummed again, "I know."
Gu Jianguo returned to his room with peace of mind and said to Wang Yueju, "Xue Qiang said he would explain it to her when he got home. You should keep an eye out for her and introduce her to him if there are any suitable girls."
"We're in Kyoto, and he's in Lizhou. It's hard to find someone suitable." Wang Yueju sighed. "That girl Wen Dandan is really nice, but she's dating someone. I heard that person is also a student at Tsinghua University and comes from a well-off family."
"Take your time to look for it." Gu Jianguo said.
Wang Yueju lay down and thought about the girls she knew. She couldn't find anyone who was particularly suitable, so she said, "Boys and girls need to find their partners carefully. If they find someone who is not suitable, they might feel frustrated for the rest of their lives. But now, it seems that Ye Chi and Zijun are both good."
"Your thinking is backward," Gu Jianguo said as he lay down and turned off the lights. "If you're not happy after marriage, you can always get a divorce. If a woman is capable, she can still live a good life after divorce."
Wang Yueju chuckled after hearing his words, "I'll remember this."
Gu Jianguo suddenly realized that he had only been thinking about his daughter and that if she felt unhappy, he could divorce her. He forgot that his wife was also a woman. He was silent for a moment and said, "I didn't make any mistakes. What's the point of you remembering this?"
Wang Yueju smiled and glared at him, "Go to sleep."
Gu Xueqiang and his friends' train ticket was at around eight in the morning. Wang Yueju asked the two nannies at home to prepare breakfast early. After dinner, Gu Jianguo drove them to the train station.
The next day, it was the day for Gu Yimin and Gu Erhui to return home, and the two newlyweds came home early. Being married was different from not being married, and the two newlyweds spoke and acted with a sense of affection.
As soon as they entered the house, Gu Siqing felt that their entire yard was filled with pink bubbles. No matter what, their good relationship was a very happy thing.
The family was in a lively atmosphere, and the two newlyweds did not leave until after dinner. The next day, they each went on their own trips: Ye Chi and Gu Yimin went to Hai City, and Zhang Zijun and Gu Erhui went to France.
Gu Jianguo and Wang Yueju were very busy every day. Gu Siqing was bored at home alone, so she started staying at the Han family.
Han Zhengping said he came back for the summer vacation, but his schoolwork was not easy. He stayed in the house studying every day, and Gu Siqing sat next to him to study.
That day, the two were studying when the phone at home rang. It was Su Wenshan calling to say that Kong Xiuwan had fallen down the stairs of the hotel and was now undergoing surgery in the hospital.
After hanging up the phone, the two rushed to the hospital immediately. When they arrived, Kong Xiuwan had just come out of the operating room. She had a broken leg and was in a heavy plaster cast, which was very distressing to see.
Arriving at the ward, Kong Xiuwan saw Han Zhengping and Gu Siqing looking worried, and said with a smile: "It's nothing serious. The doctor said it will be fine after a while, so you don't have to worry."
"Why did you fall?" Gu Siqing asked.
"I was walking downstairs when someone bumped into me from behind and I fell down the stairs."
As she spoke, she tried to sit up, and Su Wenshan quickly bent down and held her up. The two of them were so close, and with Gu Siqing and Han Zhengping present, Kong Xiuwan felt a little embarrassed, her face flushing.
