Chapter 238 Can’t Leave
"Dad, Yu Ru's place..."
Gu Jian looked at the shameless Li Yuan and snorted coldly, "It's still unclear whether what you said is true or not. Do you really expect Yu Ru to forgive you right now? Even if it's true, the suffering they endured is not fake."
"Yes!" Li Yuan blushed, "I was too impatient."
It was already late, and the aroma of the Gu family's food was making people's stomachs flutter.
Old Mrs. Li and Li Rong didn't know how many times they swallowed their saliva, especially when they heard the sizzling sound, followed by the aroma of oil mixed with the aroma of meat, which made them unable to stop.
The Gu family’s house was not small, so the mother and daughter, who came in for the first time, found the kitchen by just smelling the food.
The three sisters-in-law were busy inside. It was not that the men didn't want to come in, but Song Qiang was efficient at work and she disliked the men's clumsiness. It would be a pity if they knocked over the vegetables she had cut.
They just do the rough and tiring work.
Old Mrs. Li looked at the food piled up in the Gu family's kitchen and swallowed her saliva again.
"Yu Ru, what are you doing?" Old Mrs. Li didn't realize how flattering she was at the moment.
It’s not that Gu Yuru is disrespectful to her elders, it’s just that this old woman is not worthy of him.
She just pretended not to hear. It was good enough that Zhang Yi and Song Qiang didn't fight. How could they still want to pay attention to her?
Li Rong licked her cracked lips. She couldn't remember the last time she ate meat.
I didn’t have enough to eat during the Chinese New Year.
She, who has always been lazy, actually offered to help.
Song Qiang rolled her eyes and said, "Don't touch it. Have you washed your hands?"
"wash……"
"Even if you wash it, who knows if your hands are stained with poison? After all, your family is most accustomed to doing this kind of thing secretly."
Song Qiang didn't want to waste time talking and just sent the two of them away.
The mother and daughter standing in the yard looked at the house together, hoping that Li Yuan could talk for a while longer.
When it gets dark, the Gu family won’t feel comfortable sending people away, right?
In this way, they can at least make a living.
Unfortunately, Li Yuan came out at this time.
He also looked disappointed, after all, the whole family had the same idea.
But Gu Mingjing rudely drove him away.
"Aren't you leaving yet? You want to stay and eat for free? Li Yuan, you're really shameless."
"Third brother, didn't I just say..."
"Do we have to believe you just because you said it? Even if it's true, then your divorce from my sister is also true, and you've caused them heartbreak and suffering is also false. Don't tell me you did it to protect them. If you can't protect your wife and children, then you're a man of incompetence. If you make them sad, then get lost."
Gu Mingjing said bluntly.
No matter how thick-skinned Li Yuan was, he felt embarrassed to stay. He glanced towards the kitchen, not knowing whether he was eager to see Gu Yuru or was reluctant to leave the delicious food inside.
But they still left.
When they were far away from the Gu family, the mother and daughter complained about why Li Yuan came out so quickly. If he stayed a little longer, their family would have dinner, and they didn't believe they would have the nerve to let them go hungry.
"Mom, what's the hurry?"
"How can I not be anxious? They are eating fish tonight, such a long fish, and meat. I smell the smell of braised beef."
"Also, there are chicken legs, lots of them, all chicken legs, not those bad meats." Li Rong said.
"We came with you, but we didn't get anything out of it. It's such a shame."
"Little sister, don't worry, I'm not going to come here today. The Gu family will come to us on their own initiative."
…
"How dare he say that?" Gu Yuru put down her chopsticks, a hint of anger etched across her pretty face. "How dare he say that? I was so blind back then."
"Hurry up and eat!" Zhang Yi handed her the chopsticks again. "You can be angry, but you still have to eat. Besides, haven't we seen through his character a long time ago? It's really not worth it to still be angry about this."
Old Master Gu also shook his head. "He thinks we're monkeys! This Li Yuan is so self-righteous. He really thinks we don't know what he's up to, right?"
"Dad, you're the only one who likes to talk nonsense with him. In my opinion, it would be better to just type it out directly so you don't have to listen to his nagging." Gu Mingtang said.
Song Qiang knew that her husband was a straightforward person and not as cunning as her elder uncle and younger brother-in-law. "Why are you so anxious? Dad is not as good as you. He must have his own plan for doing this."
Gu Mingtang wanted to say something, but Song Qiang glared at him.
"Dad probably wants to verify whether Concubine Rong really gave birth to a son."
Everyone looked at Li Mumu.
"It's not that we don't trust Twilight."
Li Mumu nodded. This matter was not a small matter, and she could understand everyone's feelings.
"I'm just worried what would happen if Mumu heard it wrongly?" Gu Mingyu said, "But Li Yuan either really doesn't know, or he's deliberately hiding it."
"Maybe he didn't become Concubine Rong's confidant, I don't know?" Gu Mingjing asked.
"Come to think of it, Mr. Rong didn't say anything when he met the Li family last time. He looked very unfamiliar to me." Song Qiang recalled.
Seeing that everyone was about to believe it, Li Mumu quickly said, "But someone saw Rong Jinxuan come home that day and said that Daddy saw him at the village entrance."
"Is this true?" Gu Mingyu asked.
Li Mumu nodded, "Brother Zhuwa saw it. He told me a few days ago."
Li Mumu really didn't lie about this matter. After all, she told it out loud, and everyone would know the truth if they just asked.
Zhuwa really saw it. When he saw Li Yuan, he wanted to beat him up to vent his anger for Xiao Mumu.
But not long after, someone else came to the village entrance, so he didn't dare to go up. After the two people talked for a few words, they went home and he didn't get a chance.
He didn't want to say it, but he couldn't help it.
"If that's the case, then there's no doubt about Rong Jinxuan's identity."
Gu Jian looked at his eldest son and said, "I'm afraid Concubine Rong plotted us to this point just to pave the way for her son. Now everything makes sense."
"Is Li Yuan still testing us?" Gu Mingjing said angrily, "This guy is really Rong Fei's lackey."
"He probably wants to use us to take credit again. Do you remember he mentioned Xie Xun today?"
Xie Xun was shocked, "My... identity..."
Gu Jian raised his hand. "He doesn't know yet, I just asked casually, but he should have guessed that Concubine Rong is targeting me because of what happened in your family back then."
"It's just a suspicion. There's no evidence yet, so what's there to be afraid of?"
Despite this, Li Mumu knew that her uncle was wrong. Concubine Rong was an expert among experts.
"Or... I'd better leave!" Xie Xun said in a muffled voice.
"no!"
An old man and a young man said in unison, then they looked at each other and laughed.
"Let Twilight speak."
Li Mumu nodded, "If you leave now, it will tell others that you are that child."
