Fu Jingchen pretended to be surprised and said, "We have already separated, and you are the ones who have been eating and drinking for free. You still have the nerve to step in and ask us to pay for food on behalf of Grandpa Cheng. What kind of bastards are you!"
"You don't even pay for your own meals. It's not your turn to be the head of the Cheng family." Gu Wanwan always speaks her mind and doesn't beat around the bush with them. "Second Aunt, you have raised the hearts of Cheng Ye and his wife. Now that the children have grown up, you have to let them go and live their own lives. They can't rely on their grandparents for the rest of their lives. If this continues, our Third Young Lady will become a capitalist."
Cheng Miaomiao frowned and scolded, "Gu Wanwan, don't try to sow discord. How has my sister-in-law offended you?"
Gu Wanwan pointed at her with her chin, "Look at her behavior, are you sure she's not a capitalist? The Little Red Team is so accurate in catching people, and it's hard to explain. If you get dragged down by her, you'll regret it. As for you, you earn your own money and spend it on yourself. Have you ever been filial to your grandparents and parents?"
Cheng Miaomiao's face turned red with embarrassment, but she had nothing to refute.
Gu Wanwan's words were unpleasant to the ear, but some of them made sense. Pan Ena had indeed gone a little too far. She insisted that the aunt at home help her dress and comb her hair. When the aunt's cooking was a little bland, she scolded the young mistress and made the aunt cry. She also threatened to fire her from time to time.
She had advised her several times, and Pan Ena agreed verbally but then forgot about it.
She was worried that Gu Wanwan would bring trouble to the Cheng family, and she was also worried that the Cheng family would make a mistake and be wiped out by the lower five families.
Gu Wanwan rolled her eyes at her and told the old couple Cheng, "Grandpa Cheng, Grandma Cheng, I suggest that we separate the rooms and separate Cheng Ye and his wife first. It's not a good idea for Pan Ena to make trouble every other day. Today it's us, but what about the relatives who come to visit next time?"
Cheng Ye and Pan Ena were immediately anxious, "Grandma, please don't..."
Old Mrs. Cheng sighed, "It's all my fault. When I get old, I want my children and grandchildren to be around me and my family to be together. Even though we have separated, you still insist on having a meal together. Isn't this contradictory? Starting tomorrow, each family will eat their own meal. That's it."
Gu Yunxi quickly expressed her opinion, "Grandpa and grandma, let Cheng Ye and his wife eat by themselves, and our family will still have the reunion dinner. Grandpa and grandma don't have to pay for it in the future. When you are old, it is time for us, the younger generation, to take care of you in your old age."
Su Youtong, who was not short of money, waved her hand tightly, "Wanwan and her brother are my cousins. If Pan Ena insists on paying for the food, I will pay for it. I can't bear to let my brothers and sisters pay for their meals. If the Cheng family doesn't allow you to live there, it doesn't matter. I will buy Wanwan a big house to live in. I want a courtyard house with five entrances or a big house. You can choose whatever you want."
I am rich, I am willful, and I am confident.
The two sisters-in-law come from wealthy families, especially Su Youtong, whose ancestors were well-known red capitalists. She doesn't care whether she can inherit the Cheng family's property. Although she doesn't have as many ancestral treasures as Wanjie and others, compared with the Cheng family, she is simply too rich.
"My cousin is so generous!" Gu Wanwan clapped her hands, "But don't spend any money, we are fine living in the Cheng family."
Pan Ena was so angry that she couldn't stand the nouveau riche faces of her two sisters-in-law. What's so great about being rich? She didn't secretly report her sisters-in-law, which was her greatest kindness. It's best not to provoke her, otherwise she would turn against her.
She would be very happy if she could share resources with fewer people.
Finally, after Cheng Ye's apology and pleading, the Cheng old couple decided to give their grandson another chance and let the couple continue to live in the compound. They would see whether they wanted to cook separately or eat together. If they ate together, they would have to pay for the food.
If you eat alone, you must do it yourself and are not allowed to ask the aunt at home to cook for you.
Cheng Mingzhu called the aunt in public, "The salary is paid by the Cheng family, and has nothing to do with Pan Ena. You are not her servants. If Pan Ena orders you around, just ignore her."
Pan Ena was furious. Fearing that the two elders would kick her and her husband out, she had to suppress her anger.
Her life as a pampered lady was completely ruined by Gu Wanwan and her brother. She was used to being served by her aunt and it was impossible for her to change it in a short time. "You..."
Cheng Ye hurriedly stopped his wife, fearing that she would blurt out that she would cook for herself in a hurry. That would be his nightmare. His wife was good in everything except cooking. "Let's eat with everyone else. I'll pay for the meal tomorrow."
Since she paid for it herself, Pan Ena simply ate as much as she wanted. "So what if I don't have a job? I have a husband to support me."
Cheng Ye and his wife had already paid, so Cheng Miaomiao had no choice but to pay. The Cheng family was in such an unhappy situation, and the culprit was Gu Wanwan. In her opinion, Gu Wanwan was just like a poor relative who was asking for money. The Gu family was bankrupt, and all the property fell into the hands of Gu Qiulin and Gu Huai'en.
Although Gu Wanwan was not implicated, she also ended up penniless. When she returned to the compound today, she didn't dare to go back to the Gu family and went straight to hide in the Cheng family. The so-called temporary stay for a few days was just an excuse. It was obvious that Gu Wanwan and her brother were determined to rely on the Cheng family, hoping that the Cheng family would remember their past friendship and feed a few more mouths.
If it was the former Gu family, she would not say anything. The point is that the Gu family has been demoted and is not on the same status as the Cheng family. The hope of being rehabilitated and returning to the city is slim.
"Gu Wanwan, I heard that you went to the countryside. Can educated youth who went to the countryside leave and return to the city at will? Aren't you afraid that someone will make a comment about you? If you can't return to the city in the future, you may have to be a farmer for the rest of your life."
Gu Wanwan said calmly, "Is there any problem with going out to discuss business?"
Pan Ena had a plan in mind, and Cheng Miaomiao was shocked, "Isn't that speculation? We will be caught!"
Gu Wanwan took a bite of rice nonchalantly, "What's there to be afraid of? There are so many people who report me, but has there ever been a single success? How many times have I been reported for speculation and profiteering?"
Fu Jingchen thought for a moment and said, "There must have been three or four times. They were a bunch of ignorant scum. They came with great momentum and left in a hurry. I really look forward to the Little Red Team from Beijing coming to visit us."
Gu Wanwan's eyes sparkled, "Then let's get started and show our performance. I can't wait any longer. I'm so excited..."
"Wife, just wait and see. There will always be people who can't sit still and report." Brother Chen didn't name anyone, but he glanced at Cheng Miaomiao and Cheng Ye out of the corner of his eye.
The corner of Cheng Miaomiao's eyes twitched. No, Gu Wanwan, are you sick? You are so excited about provoking the Little Red Team. You should be laughing secretly that they didn't find you, the fish that slipped through the net. Don't forget that the Gu and Shen families were taken away by the Little Red Team.
"Gu Wanwan, you've been in the countryside for so long, and you have to take care of your younger siblings. You work in the fields every day, and you look old from the wind and sun. I'm sure the few work points you earn are not enough to buy milk powder to feed your younger siblings. Life is really hard. I'm sorry I can't understand. Unlike me, I have a decent job, a good salary, no worries about money, and I can be with my parents and elders every day."
"Woman, you should take good care of your skin. Don't end up younger than me but with an older face. Oh, I forgot. You may not have money to buy vanishing cream and clam oil. I have been using the moisturizing products sold in the Friendship Store recently. The effect is very good. I still have some left. If you don't mind, I can give it to you. Unfortunately, as proud as you are, you probably won't accept charity from the Cheng family."
She tried to attack Gu Wanwan's weakest point.
