Chapter 275
The Gu family in Beijing is bustling with activity. The second and third wives are watching the excitement while dealing with the impact that Liu Yanran has brought to the Gu family.
Although the Gu family tried their best to block Liu Yanran's information, there were no absolute secrets in this circle.
By the next day, the news had spread throughout half of the circle, and the Gu family was also seriously affected. Even Mrs. Lai, who was in retirement, was alarmed and came out again to take charge of the situation.
"Mother, Liu Yanran is too outrageous. Isn't she destroying the family tradition of our Gu family?"
Gu Huaying couldn't even call her sister-in-law.
Gu Huaying is already over sixty years old. She has never been so embarrassed before.
I didn't expect that my hair had turned white, and I was embarrassed all over the capital because of this sister-in-law.
No!
And there's the southwest!
Everyone in the Gu family's eldest branch was like eggplants hit by frost, and each of them had lost their energy and spirit.
Liu Yanran's little daughter, Gu Juan, was crying at this moment.
The eldest daughter, Gu Lan, had a cold expression on her face.
She no longer had any feelings for this mother who had always been partial to her older and younger brothers and who had glared at her with disgust when she was a child.
That father also cares more about the eldest brother.
If it weren't for her grandparents being nice to her and her silly sister, she wouldn't even want to come back to this Gu family.
Back then, Liu Yanran was still deeply in love with Yu Bing. Although she took the initiative to seduce Gu Huaqiang and successfully succeeded, she was always thinking about Yu Bing in her heart. Her first son was the fruit of her and Yu Bing's relationship.
The birth of Gu Lan represented a stain on her relationship with Yu Bing. She was the child of a man she did not love. If it were not difficult to explain to the Gu family, she would not have wanted to give birth to this child at all.
Of course, she never thought that she was with another man and there was no pure love between them...
It can be said that when she was a child, Gu Lan not only did not receive any love from her mother, but was instead treated as an enemy.
The eldest brother, who was doted on by their mother, was even more selfish and did not care for her at all.
The little Gu Lan, in the big house, was like a stranger who had accidentally intruded, watching the family of three living in harmony.
However, one day, mother began to change.
He started to care about her, smile at her, and also smile foolishly at her father.
Although Gu Lan, who was only a few years old, did not understand why, the memories of his childhood and the fear of being secretly beaten by Liu Yanran had already penetrated into his bones.
In order not to make the other party angry, she also learned to act after the other party began to pretend to care about her.
Act happy, act well-behaved...
But Gu Lan knew in her heart that she had no feelings for these parents at all...
Later, when her younger brother was born, Liu Yanran didn’t like him very much at first. The way she looked at him was somewhat similar to the way she looked at her back then.
But he was a son after all, and was cared for by his father, who attached great importance to continuing the family line. In the end, Liu Yanran gradually began to dote on the third son.
However, Gu Lan found that her doting on the eldest son had become superficial and seemed more like a habit, without the genuine affection she had shown him when they were children.
Outsiders said that Liu Yanran doted on her two sons very much, but during those years, Gu Lan always felt very awkward, as if their mother always wore a mask when facing the two brothers.
It was not until my father passed away that my mother gradually went from being sad at first to looking radiant a year later.
I have regained my true love for my two sons...
Only the fourth child, the straightforward and simple-minded silly sister, was truly loved by her mother since birth.
However, the younger sister was also nice to her older sister and she was not jealous of her.
She also didn't think there was anything to be jealous of because she was favored by that woman.
Gu Lan now understood that all this was because of Yu Bing.
That childhood sweetheart of Liu Yanran is, according to the law, a cousin who can get married!
However, there are still some things she can't figure out.
But Gu Lan didn't care about Liu Yanran at all, so there was no entanglement.
The old lady was reluctant to be called back this time, but seeing that her grandmother was nice to her, she had no choice but to come back with a pinch of her nose.
The eldest brother Gu Hongfeng and the third brother Gu Hongtao, after a night, still looked as if they were struck by lightning.
They couldn't believe that their virtuous and gentle mother could be so vicious.
Yes, it's vicious!
Even the military dared to assassinate!
Even they wouldn't dare to think, is this an ordinary person? You dare to take advantage of him without investigating his background...
Looking at the Gu family members with different expressions, old lady Wei Xiuying sighed.
The Gu family had already begun to rot from the inside.
The second and third wives were fine. The eldest wife, who was supposed to support the family, had two grandsons who looked good and had some cleverness and abilities, but they were of no use when faced with big things.
The most capable granddaughter is not close to her own parents and is unwilling to care about Gu's family. If it weren't for the fact that this old woman still has some dignity, I'm afraid she wouldn't be seen today.
As for the little granddaughter, she is a straightforward and naive girl. She is in her thirties but still so simple.
It was obvious that the second and third wives didn't want to get involved in the first wife's affairs. If she hadn't been alive, the family would have fallen apart long ago.
The old lady seemed to have been drained of her energy and spirit. If she hadn't wanted to stabilize the Gu family and hadn't wanted to find Chen Yaxian and her daughter, she would have collapsed by now...
Zhang Wan called back to Beijing to learn about the Gu family's situation. Zhang Gaoyuan had already found out everything long ago, even the attitude of every member of the Gu family.
Zhang Lin sighed, the older you get, the wiser you get. Grandpa Zhang had thought of finding out about the Gu family a long time ago.
"If I knew that my two oldest grandsons were not my biological children, I wouldn't know if I could survive."
Zhang Lin shook his head, but had no intention of hiding it.
How can they only keep such exciting news to themselves? They have to let everyone know!
Everyone else also looked indifferent, but Chen Yaxian's expression changed, as if she was recalling the time when she was at Gu's house and got along with old lady Wei Xiuying.
However, short-lived feelings are ultimately fleeting. Although the old lady looked reluctant, she actually still tolerated her son and treated her like this. Especially in those years, the old lady knew clearly how good she was to them, but she still made such a choice. The bond and feelings between them were completely severed.
The old lady whom she had treated as her biological mother and served for several years had nothing to do with her...
She is old too. People from decades ago are like yesterday's flowers and are not important at all.
Seeing Chen Yaxian's face turn indifferent after a brief moment of sentimentality, Chen Yuwei also breathed a sigh of relief.
She also didn't have a very good impression of that grandmother.
She could imagine that if something like this happened in the Zhang family, her father Zhang Changshun and her mother-in-law would not do this.
