Gu Zhu then took out a quilt: "This is a quilt I made myself from cotton I stockpiled after last year's cotton harvest. Please accept it."
It was clear that the two older sisters truly considered her their sister-in-law, and Ruan Yunxi accepted with a smile.
Then he looked at Sister-in-law Gu and asked, "What did you prepare for me, Sister-in-law?"
Sister-in-law Gu, who arrived empty-handed, was surprised to find that her two sisters-in-law had prepared gifts. She awkwardly replied, "I'll send them to you after you leave!"
Ruan Yunxi knew it was definitely an excuse.
She laughed and said, "Great! We just got married and we're missing a lot of things. Sister-in-law, please take care of the arrangements. You don't need to prepare sweaters and blankets, nor enamel cups, enamel basins, or thermos flasks. The sisters-in-law in the family compound have already given them to us."
“You don’t look like you’re lacking anything!” Sister-in-law Gu teased.
Ruan Yunxi said with feigned seriousness, "How could we not lack? We'll never lack your kindness, sister-in-law!"
Sister-in-law Gu: "..."
This is something that absolutely must be given.
When she got married, the fourth son didn't give her any gifts.
Now, they're getting married, and they have to pay for it themselves.
I'm so angry!
When Gu's mother saw Gu's sister-in-law's expression, she knew that she was unwilling to contribute money. She said, "Prepare flashlights, kettles, or other things; they lack these over there."
Flashlights aren't something you can just buy anywhere.
As for kettles, they are even more expensive.
Sister-in-law Gu decided to give away the flashlight; the one they were using at home was old, so she might as well give it away.
After everyone met and chatted for a while, Mr. and Mrs. Gu got hungry and took their whole family, about fifteen or sixteen people, out to eat at a restaurant.
Mr. Gu booked a private room in advance.
During the meal, Gu Weihai said, "Do you know about Uncle Le? He's still unconscious. They say he was shot twice with guns, his tongue was cut out, and also..."
Mr. Gu coughed lightly.
Gu Weihai shut his mouth at the opportune moment.
Mrs. Gu asked curiously, "How could this happen? Did we encounter enemy agents?"
Gu Weihai shook his head: "I don't know yet, but he was beaten up before, and it was pretty bad. I guess it's an old grudge."
"Serves him right, who told him to marry such a wife and have such a wicked daughter!" Gu Zhen complained. She and her sister already knew that their third sister had been taken away by Mother Le. Thinking of their poor third sister, the two sisters were furious.
Mrs. Gu thought about it and agreed.
"If you die, remember to tell us so we can go and see what's going on!" Gu's mother also hated Le's mother. Two people can't sleep in one bed, and Le Qiang is no good either.
Especially in recent years, they have done a lot of unethical things.
Gu Weihai nodded.
During dinner, Ruan Yunxi listened without saying a word, eating roast duck and listening to the family's cursing and swearing. She then realized that Le Qiang was indeed a bad person, rotten to the core, and had caused Gu's father a lot of trouble when he was young.
If it weren't for the good relationship between Gu's mother and Le's mother, she would have lost her mind long ago.
Now that Le Qiang is seriously injured and in a coma, the Gu family is waiting to see what happens.
Ruan Yunxi was also waiting.
The next day, Ruan Yunxi was at home when the police came to her door.
They asked, "Does Ruan Yunxi live here?"
Ruan Yunxi knew that things had probably been exposed, so she took a deep breath and said, "It was me."
"There's something I'd like to ask you. Do you know Le Qiang?" the police officers asked.
Ruan Yunxi nodded: "He came to me once. His daughter and I had a grudge, and he pleaded for her daughter."
The police officer said, "Le Qiang is in the hospital now. He can't speak, but he can barely write. He says you seriously injured him and that you had a gun on you. We need to search you!"
Mrs. Gu's expression changed: "Is there some misunderstanding? My daughter-in-law is too weak to even kill a chicken."
"This is a search warrant." The police officers took out a piece of paper, stamped it, and said they would conduct the search.
They didn't give Ruan Yunxi and Gu's mother a chance to clean up.
Question: "Which room is yours?"
