Chapter 280
"Hey, Xiang Cui, it's not good for a child to tell lies. Our family doesn't need to curry favor with the Zhang family. Your father and Deputy Director Zhang are on the same level. There's no need to flatter them."
Xia Qiu laughed and joked.
Deputy Director Liu was stunned and did not notice Xia Qiu's insincere acting.
Liu Xiangcui frowned, "Auntie, I'm not flattering you. Teacher Liu has already said that Zhang Lin is a genius and she can do everything!"
Children who have just entered puberty are at a more serious stage.
Although she was somewhat wary of Xia Qiu, her stepmother who acted one way in front of her father and another behind his back, Liu Xiangcui still couldn't help but retort.
"Hey, your teacher Liu, her husband is just a section chief, so he has to flatter Mr. Zhang!"
The image of Zhang Yaowen's tall and handsome appearance flashed through Xia Qiu's mind. The jealousy in her heart surfaced again, and her tone became a little sour.
Fortunately, Deputy Director Liu did not expect that his wife would have the same feelings towards Zhang Yaowen, so he did not think about it.
Xia Qiu secretly glanced at Old Liu's thin and skinny figure. He was only in his forties, but his eyes were full of wrinkles. His face was so ordinary that it couldn't be more ordinary. She secretly frowned.
Oh, why did she marry this man so hastily?
Apart from having a bit of temperament and decent abilities, he is not outstanding in any other way.
Unfortunately, Xia Qiu forgot that it was she and her family who came up to her with a shameless face.
At that time, Deputy Director Liu had no feelings for her.
Later, rumors that Liu Wenqing was trying to curry favor with the Zhang family spread throughout the family compound.
When Fan Fangfang heard someone say that, she rushed over and started tearing it apart.
"Linlin is a genius, to be honest, it's just flattery."
"Could it be that some people are jealous of Linlin's intelligence and cleverness, while their own child is a fool?"
The auntie who said this at the time gave an awkward explanation.
"It's not me who said that. I just heard it from others."
Fan Fangfang sneered, "I know you didn't say that, but you have no brains. You just believe whatever others say. Don't you really know that there is a bad apple in this family compound who looks down on this and that, with a jealous face?"
When Chen Yuwei came home from get off work and learned about Fan Fangfang's achievements, she secretly sent a pot of braised pork that she cooked that night. The amount of meat was very large, at least more than a pound of meat, filling a large bowl.
Fan Fangfang was stunned.
"Sister, are you going to live like this? Oh my god, this is for several people to eat. You just brought it to me like this, take it back quickly!"
Chen Yuwei and Zhang Lin smiled and placed the bowl in Fan Fangfang's hands.
"Sister Fan, please don't be polite with us. Although we are innocent, we still have nothing to fear. Thank you for your protection. Sister Fan is like my biological sister. It just so happens that I don't have a sister. As a younger sister, what's the big deal for me to send a bowl of food to my sister?"
"Sister Fan, if you treat me as a sister, don't be polite..."
Chen Yuwei's words were very appropriate, and made Fan Fangfang very happy.
Of course, she doesn’t have such a pretty and generous girl. Oh, the more she looks at these mother and daughter, the more she likes them.
She even wished that the other person was really her sister.
"Okay, okay, okay, with a girl like you, I would wake up laughing in my dreams!"
Fan Fangfang's husband was inside the house, looking at his wife with that worthless smile on her face, and he couldn't bear to watch.
His wife's habit of liking good-looking people is becoming more and more serious.
However, the Zhang family is a good family. Old Zhang is a very down-to-earth and stable person with a very positive style, which he admires very much.
Although they are both deputy directors of the same unit, he is older than Zhang Yaowen, and in other aspects, he is much worse than Zhang Yaowen.
He knew very well that he would not be able to climb very high in his life, but Zhang Yaowen was different. Old Zhang had a future.
He was also happy to see the Zhang family become friends.
Zhang Yaowen did not stop the two families from getting closer.
The one from Fan Fangfang's family, although he lacks ambition and his abilities are not particularly outstanding, he has good character and is very sensible in doing things. He is a good cadre who gets things done and is rare.
Over in the capital, as soon as Qin Chengfeng arrived, before he could take any action, someone had already spread the news that the Gu family had tried hard to hide the fact that the Gu brothers Gu Hongfeng were not their biological children.
Coupled with the fact that Liu Yanran was sentenced to eat peanuts, the Gu family has long dominated the headlines of discussions in the capital, with no rivals.
Although Wei Xiuying did not suffer a stroke from the anger, her health was completely ruined. She lay in bed every day to recuperate, looking listless.
She didn't understand how the century-old Gu family could have come to this point.
If the old man knew about this, he would be so angry that he would crawl up from the ground.
Although the second and third wives of the Gu family felt ashamed, they were secretly happy.
Now, the eldest house has completely lost its pillar. Before, the parents always favored the eldest brother and the eldest house. Now, it is finally time for the two houses to be proud.
You know, even though Gu Huaqiang was gone before, the people with the highest positions in the Gu family were the other two brothers, but Liu Yanran, the eldest daughter-in-law, always had a very high status in the Gu family, and the two daughters-in-law from the second and third rooms were always inferior to Liu Yanran.
This time, not only was Liu Yanran gone, but even the two nephews of the eldest wife were fakes. The two daughters each had their own families and were of no use at all...
This is the idea of the two daughters-in-law from the second and third rooms.
But the two brothers Gu Huaying were extremely worried and had no time to think about all these trivial matters and started fighting among themselves.
Now wherever they go, they become the focus of people's secret discussions. It is obviously not them who made the mistakes, but they have to bear it all, and they feel so depressed.
"Huaying, your father and I shouldn't have allowed your brother to force your sister-in-law away. Otherwise, our Gu family wouldn't have come to this point today."
Wei Xiuying looked regretful and pale as she looked at Gu Huaying who was sitting beside the bed.
Gu Huaying was silent.
Wei Xiuying didn't care whether Gu Huaying responded or not, she just sighed to herself.
"It's retribution! This is retribution for the wrong things we did!"
Gu Huaying's expression became more and more ugly.
“Maybe there really is such a thing as retribution.”
Wei Xiuying nodded: "For the past few decades, what I have been thinking about is to find your sister-in-law and niece..."
Gu Huaying shook her head: "My sister-in-law is not someone who is greedy for fame and fortune. No matter how good the Gu family is, she probably doesn't want to see us again in this life."
Although Gu Huaying was only in his teens at the time, he saw it clearly.
Sister-in-law Chen Yaxian is a gentle person with a strong heart. The Gu family has treated her so well, so what if they find the person?
Wei Xiuying became more and more regretful, her condition became worse and worse, and sometimes she would even make mistakes.
When I was confused, the name I kept repeating was Chen Yaxian's.
There is also Chen Yuwei's name in the Gu family.
"Brother, Mom may be dying soon. Why don't we go find my sister-in-law and let Mom see her?"
I can't bear to see that the third child is so outstanding.
Maybe, after meeting his ex-sister-in-law, his mother's condition will get better.
Gu Huaying shook his head.
"It's no use."
"We have to bear the consequences of the evil our family has done."
Gu Laosan looked at his second brother in astonishment. Although it seemed that something was wrong with the Gu family, his second brother was the current head of the Gu family. How could he say that?
