"You unfilial son!" Mother Gu was so angry that her face turned green.
Gu Weizhou frowned and said, "Mom, if you have any complaints, take them out on me. Don't target her. She's my Achilles' heel. I hope you won't make my life difficult."
Ruan Yunxi was very satisfied with Gu Weizhou's answer, and her gaze towards him softened.
Mother Gu was so angry she almost jumped up and down: "Do you know that I received a letter from your family compound? Someone wrote to me anonymously, saying that your wife eloped with someone and is pregnant with another man's child. She married you because she didn't want to be sent down to the countryside. She's just using you."
Gu Weizhou asked coldly, "Mom, do you believe me, your son, or a letter from someone trying to sow discord?"
"That's all nonsense. Send the letter back to me. I want to find out who wrote it to you. There aren't many people who know our home address. Leaking a military officer's family information is punishable." Gu Weizhou's logic was clear; he wanted to find the culprit by following the clues.
Mrs. Gu frowned: "Are they all fake?"
Gu Weizhou warned: "Ms. Jin Wenzhu, you have already lost a filial daughter-in-law, and soon you will also lose an unfilial son."
Gu's mother: "......"
After a three-second silence, Gu's mother said, "Let me say a few words to Yunxi. I want to apologize for her misunderstanding."
Gu Weizhou relayed the message to Ruan Yunxi.
Ruan Yunxi raised an eyebrow: "I can't accept that."
Gu Weizhou's eyes pleaded.
Ruan Yunxi gave him face and answered the phone: "It's me."
Knowing her mistake, Gu's mother immediately apologized: "It was my fault. Someone misunderstood you because of a letter. I hope you can forgive me. I was also provoked by someone. I really welcome you to become our family's daughter-in-law."
"Since Mother-in-law has apologized, I will be magnanimous and not hold it against you. For Commander Gu's sake, I will let it go this time. If Mother-in-law has any complaints about me, she can say so directly without being sarcastic."
Gu's mother: "......"
Who exactly is the mother-in-law?
On the surface, Ruan Yunxi was appeased, but when the phone reached Gu Weizhou, Gu's mother ordered, "Find the person who caused the conflict between your wife and me. I'll make her pay."
Gu Weizhou said calmly, "You don't need to tell me, I will make the person who wrote the letter suffer. You should think carefully about how to repair your relationship with your daughter-in-law. As an unfilial son, I will definitely stand on my daughter-in-law's side."
Looking at the phone after it was hung up, Gu's mother rolled her eyes in anger: "If I had known he would be this awful, I shouldn't have protected him in the first place. I'm his mother, how can he treat his mother like a little notebook?"
What is Aunt Jin saying?
Mother Gu looked up at the tall, beautiful young girl walking towards her, a smile on her face: "Ayao's here?"
"My mom made some locust flower steamed buns. She knows Auntie likes them, so she asked me to bring some over." Le Yao smiled and put down a large lunchbox containing six locust flower steamed buns.
"There are still locust flowers at this time of year?" Mrs. Gu asked in surprise.
Le Yao explained with a smile, "My mom froze it in the refrigerator. When we want to eat it, we take it out to make guoguotou (a type of Chinese soup). The taste is almost the same as fresh."
Looking at the well-mannered, gentle, and quiet Le Yao, Gu's mother thought of Ruan Yunxi, whose temper was unpredictable. She didn't realize how bad it was until they compared them, and the contrast made her feel a little unhappy.
I couldn't help but say, "Ah Yao is so wonderful, I wonder which lucky man will be able to marry you. It's a pity that my youngest son is already married, otherwise Auntie would really like you to be her daughter-in-law!"
Le Yao blushed slightly: "If I can't be your daughter-in-law, being your goddaughter is fine too!"
Mrs. Gu thought about it and agreed.
Le Yao deliberately asked, "Did Auntie call Little Zhou?"
Mrs. Gu nodded.
"How are Brother Xiaozhou and his wife doing? I heard that his wife from Shanghai went to join the army. They must be getting along very well now!" How could that woman be worthy of marrying Brother Xiaozhou?
Xiao Zhou was too naive; he was fooled by that woman.
Thinking of Gu Weizhou, who had forgotten his mother after getting a wife, Gu's mother snorted coldly: "They're doing fine, we don't need to worry about them."
Thinking of something, Le Yao said, "Oh, I see. In a while, our cultural troupe will be going to the base to visit them. We can go and see them then. Is there anything you'd like me to bring?"
Mrs. Gu's eyes lit up: "There really is!"
