"Don't get excited, don't get excited. Your second brother and I are here to help you. Here, have some sugar water to replenish your energy. Your second brother went to buy you food. Tell me slowly!" Cai Xiaolian stepped forward, put a cushion under Gu Sangu's arm, and helped her sit up.
Aunt Gu held the bowl and took a big gulp.
"Second sister-in-law, let me tell you, that old hag is trying to kill me this time! Do you know what happened? It's all because of her daughter. She's got her eye on Zhou Yuan, isn't she? She forced me to go back to my parents' house and ask my mother to talk to Aunt Xiao. Zhou Yuan has already rejected her at least three times! He clearly doesn't like her, so why is she still clinging to her? She even said that I don't want her to marry well, that I, as the eldest sister-in-law, am cruel and want her to marry into a bad family! Good heavens! She and her daughter even attacked me! If I hadn't been feeling unwell yesterday, I wouldn't have been able to beat them! I'm so angry!" After drinking a bowl of hot sugar water, Aunt Gu was fully revived.
Cai Xiaolian blinked.
She thought she would see her sister-in-law lying weakly in bed, questioning her life and whether she had married the wrong family. Instead, her sister-in-law told her that if it weren't for her sudden pregnancy, she could have beaten her mother-in-law and sister-in-law in a fight.
For a moment, Cai Xiaolian didn't know what to say.
"And another thing, that old hag just heard the servants say that the Gu family has come to the prefectural city. She probably thought my parents had come too, so she ran away with all the maids, servants, and cooks! She has the guts to bully me, but she should at least not run away! What kind of woman runs away?" Gu Sangu continued.
Cai Xiaolian looked at Guo Rui, who looked aggrieved, and then at Gu Sangu, who was furious.
Little Rui Rui must have inherited his father's temperament, definitely not his mother's. Otherwise, he wouldn't have looked so pitiful just now, making her and Gu Shouxin suspect that Aunt Gu had been bullied so badly that she was questioning her existence, and that the couple wanted to teach Aunt Gu's husband a lesson on the spot.
“Tell me about that old hag. She just ran away and abandoned me. Rui’er is her own grandson, isn’t he? She doesn’t even care about her own grandson. What kind of person is she? I seriously suspect that Rui’er’s father isn’t that old hag’s biological son at all,” Aunt Gu said again.
"Auntie, what are you planning to do next? Your brother and I have some business in the city these days, but we'll support you, so don't be afraid!" Cai Xiaolian still made her stance clear, even though Aunt Gu seemed to be able to handle things on her own and didn't need her family.
"I'll fight those three to the death! Humph! Don't think I know what that old hag is up to, trying to find another gentle and virtuous woman for Rui'er's father. She's probably hoping I'll go back to my parents' house to recuperate, but I won't fall for it! Why should the man I set my sights on be given to someone else! Besides, is it easy to find a man as easy to bully as Rui'er's father? That old hag is deliberately trying to make things difficult for me!" Gu Sangu had a look on her face that said, "I won't let you have your way."
Cai Xiaolian: ...
“Then your third son-in-law said you need to stay in bed to rest during your pregnancy and shouldn’t get angry. You’re pregnant for ten months. Can you guarantee you won’t get angry while living with them? What if they cause trouble again? Wouldn’t you suffer yourself?” Cai Xiaolian advised.
"I won't make myself suffer! Tomorrow I'm moving to the mansion, and I'll be taking her father and Rui'er with me. I need to rest during my pregnancy, so I won't have time to look after the shop. She can look after it herself! It's fine if her stupid son and daughter want to live with me too. I'll have six maids in my room to take care of them. I don't believe they can cause any trouble. I used to be strong and healthy, but now that I'm pregnant, Rui'er's father will never think I can't stand being bullied. So, Second Sister-in-law, don't worry!" Gu Sangu comforted Cai Xiaolian.
