Volume 1 Chapter 145 Complete Separation
In that case, don't blame her for being rude.
"Heh...you just got married, did I ask you to hand over your previous salary?"
Mother Gu glanced at Gu Tinghao, who was sitting aside in so much pain that he couldn't speak.
"As soon as your third sister-in-law got married, she spent her own money on grandparents. Your father bought three or four sets of clothes and a watch for me for 150 yuan."
"I tell you, your sister-in-law used all her own money, and I only paid 80 yuan for the return gift."
"The rest was paid by your third sister-in-law herself."
Wang Chunmei really didn't expect Sheng Wanyan to be so generous and spend so much money.
He is stupid but has a lot of money, and he bought such an expensive thing for his mother-in-law.
But then again, she came from the city and wanted to marry into the Gu family, so how could I not show my courtesy?
"Since you asked that, let me ask you, you have been married for so many years, have you ever bought anything for me?"
When Wang Chunmei heard what Gu's mother said, her face turned black and white due to her questioning.
"I...I..."
Wang Chunmei was speechless. Apart from being attentive at the beginning, had she ever bought anything for the Gu family afterwards?
Moreover, no one was as generous as Sheng Wanyan when he first showed his courtesy.
"Have you ever bought me a piece of clothing?"
"Have you ever bought your dad a pair of socks?"
"Have you ever bought nutritional supplements for your grandparents?"
Gu's mother questioned them on the spot. Since they asked this, she would settle the accounts with the fourth brother's family.
"How many years has Lao Si worked? How much is his salary?"
"If you really want to calculate everything, then I will calculate it for you again!"
When Wang Chunmei heard this, she immediately held the passbook tightly in her hand. She knew very well that if she really calculated it based on her personal salary.
They have four rooms and don't even have 5,000 yuan.
She and Gu Tinghao are young. Gu Tinghao has only been working for a few years and his position is not high.
If Gu's mother really calculated everything clearly, then their family would probably have to pay back the money.
"Never mind. Never mind."
Wang Chunmei shook her head desperately. Apart from money, everything else in the Gu family had long been donated to the country by Grandpa Gu.
The small courtyard where the Sheng family lived was Gu's mother's dowry, and her mother had no intention of dividing it.
After a hundred years, I will donate her directly to the country, and no one can take advantage of her.
Gu's mother also told this matter in front of everyone, and the three brothers of the Gu family had no objection.
Only Wang Chunmei pursed her lips and said nothing, even though she felt that her mother-in-law was wasteful.
But she was afraid that her mother-in-law would go back on her word and divide the property equally and let the four houses go back, so she had no choice but to agree.
Even if she disagreed, her mother-in-law would not listen to her.
"Sign this separation paper, and then you can leave."
The division of property paper clearly states what each household gets and the amount of alimony.
Brother Gu and Gu Tingxiao frowned, they really didn't expect that the family would be divided in this way.
They thought they would separate during a peaceful conversation. After all, Gu's mother had previously expressed her intention to separate the family once Gu Tingxiao got married.
But now, it has become so ugly.
Brother Gu’s frown was so tight that it could pinch a fly to death.
My third brother just got married and my fourth brother's wife made such a fuss. It seems that my third brother's wife and my fourth brother's wife will not be able to live in peace in the future.
The fourth brother...will also be beaten by the third brother.
"Now that the division is complete, you can go."
After Gu's mother finished speaking, she gave each of the four copies of the evidence for the division of the property a copy, and went upstairs with her own copy.
Father Gu glared at Gu Tinghao fiercely, and Gu Tinghao subconsciously shrank back.
When I shrank back, my back started to hurt.
"Are you still not leaving? Are you waiting for me to treat you?"
As soon as Father Gu said this, everyone immediately went back to their homes.
Sheng Wanyan and Gu Tingxiao were left to face their father who was eyeing them covetously, and their father was angry.
But when he saw that they had just returned home and were affected as soon as they got home, he couldn't get angry.
"Has the third daughter-in-law eaten yet?"
"Dad, we've eaten." Sheng Wanyan answered obediently.
"That's good."
After saying this, Father Gu went back to his room to coax his wife. Grandpa and Grandma Gu sighed and also went back to their rooms.
Sheng Wanyan and Gu Tingxiao looked at each other, still holding the passbook they were given.
"Let's talk in the room."
Sheng Wanyan nodded and followed Gu Tingxiao back to the room. The first thing she did was to put the passbook away.
Gu Tingxiao went to run the bath water for her. After taking a bath, the two of them lay on the bed. Sheng Wanyan lay in his arms, resting her head on his arm.
"Ting Xiao..."
"Are you still thinking about splitting up the family?"
Sheng Wanyan nodded. After all, this matter had something to do with her.
Gu Tingxiao looked down at the little girl with a frown on her face, and reached out to smooth her brows.
"Don't think too much, just do our part."
"You are just an excuse for Wang Chunmei to make trouble."
Wang Chunmei had always been thinking about dividing the family property, and Sheng Wanyan happened to come across the reason she wanted to use.
So even if it’s not about the return gift this time, it will be something else next time.
It’s better to separate early, so that he can live his own life with his wife in the future.
He doesn't want his wife to be treated badly by others.
"Yeah...I know."
"But Mom is very sad."
She knew that Mother Gu was really hurt today, hurt by her fourth brother Gu Tinghao's attitude of tacitly agreeing to Wang Chunmei's trouble.
There is a happy event in the family, but you allow your wife to make a fuss without caring about the family's reputation at all.
He didn't even consider the face of his biological brother Gu Tingxiao. Once Sheng Wanyan married in, the Gu family would be divided. What would others think?
Gu Tinghao also didn't care about the face of his sister-in-law Sheng Wanyan at all.
How could Mother Gu not feel disheartened by this?
"Wife, there's dad on mom's side."
"I just wronged you."
His wife had just been married for a few days when Wang Chunmei used this as a reason to separate the family.
If Wang Chunmei deliberately spreads rumors outside, will she still have the reputation of being a daughter-in-law?
It seems that he can't let Gu Tinghao live so comfortably.
Wang Chunmei is a woman and there is nothing she can do on her own.
Is it possible that I have no way to deal with Gu Tinghao, my own brother?
It has been too long since I have properly guided my younger brother, and for a moment he is unable to recognize his own position.
"Wife, I will trouble you to take care of our little family from now on."
Gu Tingxiao looked at her lovingly, his eyes filled with the determination to spend his whole life with her.
Sheng Wanyan smiled and nodded. She liked to hear this.
"good."
Sheng Wanyan felt much more comfortable because of his partiality and care for her.
Mother Gu was very kind to her, and she did not show partiality even though Gu Tingxiao was caught in the middle.
Instead, he made up for the neglect of Gu Tingxiao in his childhood by taking care of himself.
Mother Gu is a good mother-in-law and she doesn't want her to be sad.
But things have already been decided. From now on, she should be more filial to her mother and not let her become disappointed with the third wife.
The next day, Mother Gu had returned to her usual gentle self, with no sign of the effects of the previous night.
Mother Gu knew today that the Sheng family would be staying in Kyoto for the last day, so she took a leave of absence and planned to spend time with the Sheng family with Sheng Wanyan.
