Not long after Ruan Yunxi and her husband arrived at the phone booth, Gu's mother called again.
After the operator connected the call and confirmed that it was for Gu Weizhou and his wife, she handed the phone to Ruan Yunxi and her husband, and started the timer.
At this time, even answering the phone costs money.
And it's not cheap either.
Gu Weizhou answered the phone: "Mom, why are you calling? Is something wrong at home?"
"Can't you call if there's nothing wrong? You don't miss your parents, but they miss you. How are you and Yunxi doing? Why haven't you called me?" Gu's mother said with a hint of dissatisfaction towards Ruan Yunxi.
Gu Weizhou smiled and said, "We're doing fine, Mom and Dad, don't worry, we're doing well in the family compound."
Knowing that her son sided with his wife and wouldn't tolerate her saying anything bad about her, Gu's mother didn't want to be the bad guy in front of her son. She said a few words in a friendly manner, "Let Yunxi answer the phone. I haven't spoken to her in a long time."
Gu Weizhou looked at Ruan Yunxi for her opinion.
Ruan Yunxi answered the phone with a smile, not wanting to put Gu Weizhou in a difficult position. Even if Gu's mother had any dissatisfaction with her, that was Gu's mother's problem, not Gu Weizhou's or her, as a junior, having any issues.
Ruan Yunxi asked, "Mom, have you eaten?"
"Not yet. I was thinking of calling you before we eat. I've been so busy lately that I haven't had time to call you. Don't blame me for not caring about you. I've already had your wedding gifts sent. You and Weizhou should live a good life together. When you come back to Beijing on your vacation, I'll cook you something delicious."
Ruan Yunxi smiled and said, "Okay, thank you!"
Thinking about the wedding gift she sent him, he felt he should reciprocate: "Mom, our family compound is by the sea, and my sisters-in-law and I often go beachcombing. After we find sea cucumbers and dry them, I'll send them to you so you can stew them."
"You're going to go beachcombing?" Mrs. Gu was stunned. This young lady used to be so pampered, but now she actually goes beachcombing.
Ruan Yunxi nodded: "Mom, next time you come to the family compound, I'll take you to go beachcombing. I can find a lot of good things now!"
Mrs. Gu smiled and said, "Okay."
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law chatted for a few minutes on the phone. Just before hanging up, Gu's mother said, "Now that you've married Xiaozhou, you should live your lives well. Tone down your capitalist lady attitude and don't make things difficult for Xiaozhou."
Ruan Yunxi chuckled: "What exactly are the characteristics of a capitalist's daughter that Mom was talking about? I want to correct them one by one."
Mrs. Gu choked for a moment: "You know it yourself."
Ruan Yunxi humbly asked for advice: "I just don't know, so I wanted to ask my mother-in-law to give me some pointers so as not to cause trouble for Commander Gu."
Upon hearing that Ruan Yunxi's tone was off, Gu's mother's expression darkened: "Let Xiaozhou answer the phone."
Ruan Yunxi wasn't afraid at all and handed the phone to Gu Weizhou.
Seeing her unpleasant expression, Gu Weizhou asked anxiously, "Wife, what's wrong?"
“My mother-in-law told me to tone down my capitalist daughter attitude so as not to cause you any trouble. I feel like my mother-in-law doesn’t like me very much. How about we get a divorce certificate now so that I don’t hurt you…” Ruan Yunxi stopped pretending.
She could have gotten along well with Gu's mother.
It seems now that we can't get along.
If she hadn't awakened, according to the plot, after Gu Weizhou rescued her from that place, he would have to fulfill his marriage agreement and marry her at his advanced age. When Gu's mother found out, she threatened to kill herself, saying that she had already ruined Gu Weizhou's life, and now she was causing him trouble at his age, ruining his reputation as a high-ranking official.
Gu's mother said she hated Ruan Yunxi to death.
They say she's a terrible person.
They shouldn't be alive.
Gu Weizhou got anxious: "Wife, what are you saying? Don't say things like that again. My mother is my mother, and I am me. You can't treat me like this."
Ruan Yunxi raised an eyebrow: "Then tell your mother that it was your own choice, don't make it sound like I'm threatening you."
Ms. Gu, who overheard their conversation, hung up the phone in anger.
Gu Weizhou called back, and his mother heard it. She was furious and answered the phone: "Have you forgotten your mother now that you've married a wife?"
Gu Weizhou answered decisively, "Yes."
