Wang Huifang felt resentful when her facade was exposed, but she hated Gu Zixiao even more.
If it weren't for Gu Zixiao, how could she have lost face in front of her best friend?
What's even more despicable is that Gu Zixiao, that scoundrel, secretly watched some random cats and dogs without her and her husband's permission; it's utterly shameful.
Wang Huifang assured Zhang Wenfang, "Wenfang, don't worry, your Qingqing is my daughter-in-law, that's a done deal and won't change."
The Lin family is well-off, and Lin Qingqing works in a performing arts troupe and is a high school graduate. From any perspective, she is more than a match for that bastard Gu Zixiao.
If it weren't for the fact that her two older sons had already found wives from better families with the old man's help, and that her youngest son was still young.
Otherwise, Wang Huifang wouldn't want to give a good girl like Lin Qingqing to Gu Zixiao.
As a result, that bastard Gu Zixiao didn't know how to be grateful. If I had known he was such a scoundrel, why didn't he just die out there? That way, I wouldn't have had to worry about him making me angry.
"Forget it, forget it. We can't afford to associate with a man like Gu Zixiao. Besides, it's not like I, Qingqing, am unwanted. There's no need for me to hang on to Gu Zixiao. There are plenty of better young men in our compound than Gu Zixiao."
Wang Huifang chuckled inwardly. Although she disliked Gu Zixiao, she was honest about it.
In their compound, or even in the whole country, there is no one more capable than Gu Zixiao.
Whether it's Gu Zixiao's face, her fighting skills, her intelligence, or her work ability, it's all about her.
Even Gu Zixiao's two older brothers paled in comparison to her.
Some things are simply incomparable; they're ingrained in our very being.
Otherwise, why would Old Master Gu, a man who is so cold and taciturn and doesn't seem to care much about either his son or grandson, be so attentive to Gu Zixiao?
Nobody's a fool, okay?
Besides, there are quite a few people who would like to find Gu Zixiao a partner.
Although Gu Zixiao's personality is indeed quite terrible, she is undeniably outstanding.
So, Wang Huifang got angry at Zhang Wenfang's stubborn words and said with a forced smile, "Is that so? In that case, forget it."
Honestly, even without your daughter, can't I find a better girl to marry my son?
That's ridiculous.
Zhang Wenfang was also stunned for a moment. She had just spoken carelessly. In fact, she was quite fond of Gu Zixiao.
However, now that Wang Huifang had said so, she stood up decisively, her face full of sarcasm, "Fine. But you should advise Gu Zixiao to open his eyes wider and not marry just any Tom, Dick, or Harry, otherwise it will be your Gu family that loses face."
Wang Huifang's expression remained unchanged: "You don't need to worry about our family matters. I have things to do here, you can go now."
Zhang Wenfang snorted heavily, lifted her foot and walked out. Once she was outside the Gu family's gate, she spat at the Gu family.
"What are you? I'm just waiting to see you make a fool of yourself, Wang Huifang."
After Zhang Wenfang left, Wang Huifang became increasingly angry, so she called Gu's father.
Mr. Gu was rather ordinary; he worked at the grain bureau and wasn't particularly busy, so he waited for Wang Huifang to call him and ask him to come home.
Mr. Gu left work early and rushed home. As soon as he got back, Wang Huifang threw herself into his arms, sobbing.
When Mr. Gu saw his wife crying, he couldn't bear it and quickly comforted her.
It took him a long time to calm Wang Huifang down.
Once his wife had calmed down, Mr. Gu asked, "What's wrong? Who made you angry?"
Wang Huifang snorted coldly, "Who else could it be? Of course, it's your precious son."
Then, she told Mr. Gu what had happened after Zhang Wenfang came to their house.
Mr. Gu was furious after hearing this.
However, after a moment, looking at his wife's expression, he said, "But, but, hasn't Gu Zixiao already found a wife? Why should we still care about him?"
Wang Huifang was blunt: "I don't think much of it. From what Zhang Wenfang said, Gu Zixiao is interested in a country girl."
Mr. Gu paused for a moment, then said softly, "Wife, you seem to be from the countryside too. Besides, our family doesn't care about social status."
Upon hearing this, Wang Huifang cried even harder.
"Nonsense about not caring about family background. Your eldest sister-in-law, third brother's wife, and fourth brother's wife, whose family background isn't better than mine? I'm the only one who comes from the countryside. They've talked about me behind my back quite a bit."
Not to mention the family her sister-in-law married; they're all better off than her.
Even her eldest and second sons' wives come from wealthy and influential families. Don't think she can't see that those two daughters-in-law look down on her.
Mr. Gu sighed and hugged her, saying, "It's all my fault, it's all my fault, it's all my fault for being incompetent. If I were capable, you wouldn't be looked down upon by others."
Wang Huifang sighed and said, "What does it have to do with you? Besides, in my eyes you are a very capable person."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Gu was immediately delighted.
"Also, let's talk about Gu Zixiao, why are we bringing up ourselves? Anyway, I definitely wouldn't approve of the wife Gu Zixiao found. You need to be on my side."
Mr. Gu replied without hesitation, "Okay. No problem. I promise to stand with you, my wife."
Wang Huifang wiped her face: "In that case, let's have someone bring that kid back."
Mr. Gu nodded repeatedly: "Okay. I'll find someone to bring him back right away. Once we get him back, we'll have to give him a good talking to."
Wang Huifang smiled sweetly: "You're so good to me."
Mr. Gu: "That's right. If I'm not good to you, who will I be good to?"
Mr. Gu kissed his wife on the cheek, then, feeling embarrassed, went to find someone to look for Gu Zixiao.
So, just as Gu Zixiao finished having dinner with Lan Yao and the others, someone knocked on the Yu family's door again.
Grandma Yu immediately instructed Gu Zixiao, "Gu Zixiao, you sit outside and go open the door."
Gu Zixiao replied, "Okay, no problem."
Then he went out to open the door and saw his underling coming over. He asked, somewhat speechless, "What are you doing here so late at night?"
Gu Xiaodi said irritably, "What else can I do? Mom and Dad want you to go back."
Gu Zixiao said "Oh": "Tell them I don't have time, I have things to do, I'll go see them when I have time."
Gu Xiaodi nodded: "I'm hungry, do you have any food?"
Gu Zixiao chuckled twice: "You're quite good at it."
"Brother, you're my own brother. What's wrong with me wanting to have a meal here?"
Gu Zixiao: "I'll go ask first. You come in first."
Little Brother Gu followed him in eagerly and even locked the door behind him.
