Although Gu Xia didn't hear what Xu Yan said, she could imagine that Xu Yan would definitely not say anything good.
"fine."
But when she returned home, Gu Yunsi would inevitably nag her.
"Did you just arrive in Coconut City today?" Gu Xia asked them to sit down and chatted with a smile.
Liang Su nodded and said, "Come and pay respect to my mother."
Gu Xia was stunned, as if she didn't expect that Liang Su had lost his mother at such a young age.
Judging from Liang Su's age, she should be about the same age as her daughter.
"Excuse me."
Liang Su smiled and shook her head. This was a regrettable thing for her, but she was not too sad.
Mrs. Yang came out and said, "An old man came to see you a few days ago."
Gu Xia was stunned. "How old are you?"
"It's similar to our old lady's. She said her last name is Qiao. Let me let you know."
Hearing the surname Qiao, Liang Su couldn't help but look at Gu Xia.
Gu Xia's eyes darkened slightly, and he said, "If he comes here again in the future, just tell him that we don't have the person he's looking for at home, and he won't see us. He doesn't need to tell me."
"good."
Old Madam Ma was a little unhappy. She stared at her and said harshly, "Gu Xia, you promised me that you wouldn't remarry. You must keep your promise! Stop flirting with other women and be more careful about yourself."
Although the words were obviously unpleasant, they did not arouse Gu Xia's anger, simply because she had heard them too many times.
The old lady always speaks like this. If she gets angry, she will have more wrinkles.
"Mom, I understand."
She frowned helplessly, and a hint of annoyance appeared on her indifferent expression.
But Liang Su knew that this was not directed at the old lady, but at the person who came to see her.
She couldn't help but wonder in her heart who made Gu Xia so disgusted.
"Mom, today is my mother's birthday. I have to go home."
The old lady glanced at her and said, "You can go back if you want, as long as it's not to seduce men."
Mrs. Yang felt that she had gone too far and advised her gently, "Old lady, please don't speak like that. Harsh words can hurt people like a cold summer day. You can't do that."
Old Madam Ma snorted coldly, "She promised to remain a widow for the rest of her life for my son."
Liang Su felt that she was being unreasonable. Gu Xia was marrying her son, not selling him to her family. How could a mother-in-law have any right to interfere with her widowed daughter-in-law's remarriage?
However, seeing that Gu Xia didn't say anything, Liang Su didn't say anything.
"Aunt Gu, I brought some braised pork belly that my mother-in-law made. Would you like to take it home and try it with your mother?"
Mrs. Yang smiled and said, "Yes, I'm still warm and it smells good."
The old lady immediately said: "Don't give it to her, it's all mine!"
Liang Su felt a little helpless. Why did the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law seem so incompatible?
Not really. It seems like the old lady is unilaterally dissatisfied with Gu Xia.
"Old lady, you can't eat too much of this greasy food. Give the extra bowl to Aunt Gu."
Only after Liang Su spoke did the old lady stop talking and just shut her mouth unhappily.
Gu Xia originally wanted to refuse, but it smelled really good, so she didn't refuse anymore and left with the braised pork belly that Sister Yang had packed for her.
Liang Su sat next to the old lady, holding her hand, and asked in confusion: "Old lady, you are so mean to Aunt Gu. She is a very good person. She has also sponsored many children in welfare homes. She is such a kind person. Why can't you be nicer to her?"
Old Madam Ma spat, "She funded the welfare home because of her lost daughter. Her daughter is not my biological granddaughter. Why should I think well of her? If it weren't for her, my son wouldn't have died. I want her to be tied to my house for the rest of her life and let her atone for my son's sin."
The amount of information was too much for Liang Su to digest for a while.
But it involved too much privacy, so Liang Su didn't continue asking.
She was just wondering in her heart, could it be that Gu Xia and her now deceased husband were remarried, and she had been married once before?
But it was just curiosity. She shouldn't be too curious about other people's privacy.
"I have to go back to school tomorrow, so I won't bother you anymore. You can rest well at home. If you want to eat braised pork again, you can write to me and I will find time to bring it to you."
After talking to Liang Su, Mrs. Ma felt relieved and her expression eased a little.
"So thoughtful, I wish you were my granddaughter, but unfortunately I'm not blessed."
Liang Su smiled and said, "You are the most blessed old lady. How many people want to eat your meat but can't. Your blessings are still to come."
The old lady sighed, "I'm already old, what else can I expect?"
She already has one foot in the coffin, so how can she have a future?
…
Gu Xia carried the braised pork home.
Gu Yunsi lives just two blocks away from Old Lady Ma, so she doesn't need to take a car and can just walk there.
I had not walked far when I passed by a car.
In a trance, Gu Xia turned his head and saw a familiar profile. He subconsciously turned around and took two steps to chase after it.
After stopping, he stared blankly at the car going away.
Gu Xia smiled bitterly. What if he caught up with him? What if the person in the car was him?
She didn't wait for that person to come back to find her twenty years ago, so why should she hope to meet him again today?
"Xia Xia, what are you doing standing there?" Gu Yunsi opened the door and shouted.
Gu Xia walked over quickly and said, "It's nothing, I just seemed to see someone I know."
Gu Yunsi is old and, like Gu Xia, she pays attention to maintenance.
Her actual age is about the same as Old Lady Ma, but she looks much younger and prettier than the old lady.
Gu Xia inherited her gentleness and softness, but this extremely beautiful face was inherited from her hateful father.
"Where did you get the braised pork? I haven't eaten it for a long time." Gu Yunsi seemed to be back in Cheng County.
Gu Xia said, "It was given to me by a little girl. The same girl I told you about last time who gave me the painting."
Gu Yunsi said "oh" and when he mentioned the little girl, he thought of Xu Yan.
"Yan girl just came over."
Gu Xia smiled helplessly, "Are you here to complain again?"
"If she hadn't been wronged, what could she be complaining about? It seems to be related to the girl who gave you the braised pork belly."
Gu Xia's smile faded a little. "Mom, this has nothing to do with Liang Su. The gay man Xu Yan likes is Liang Su's husband. She is angry at Liang Su because she can't get the love she wants. She is not in the right to begin with."
Gu Yunsi didn't expect there was such a thing, which made Xu Yan seem wrong.
Liking a married man is something that crosses the line, and she hates it the most.
"I'll talk to her grandmother about this later and ask her to teach the child a lesson. But your mother-in-law is so shameless. How can she say that to a little girl in public?"
Gu Xia decided not to remarry. Gu Yunsi thought it was because of Old Lady Ma. The relationship between the two old ladies had always been bad and even a little tense.
Therefore, Gu Xia basically didn't allow the two of them to interact with each other, otherwise who knows what kind of verbal battle would have ensued.
"It has nothing to do with my mother-in-law. It's Xu Yan's own problem." Gu Xia said lightly.
