“Father, Mother, I’m really thinking of Huihui.” Zhang said with some grievance, “Although Zhang Cheng has been married before, he has no children! He’s only twenty years old, and he’s the only son in his family. He also manages the oil mill. Aunt Qin said that Zhang Cheng has several older sisters who are married well and can help him out! Father, Mother, you always favor your second son’s family. Are you also thinking of arranging this good marriage for Gu Nian?”
Cai Xiaolian and Gu Nian both rolled their eyes. Zhang's thought process was truly...
"Enough!" Grandma Gu slammed the kitchen knife down on the cutting board.
Zhang was so frightened that she trembled.
"Go and see your youngest son. Your father and I agree that Huihui and Sisi's marriage will be decided by us, the two old folks. You should focus on your son!" Grandma Gu said in a deep voice.
"Mother, my son is your grandson too! I've already given the Gu family two grandsons, how can you treat me like this?" Zhang said indignantly.
"What's wrong with a grandson? Does a grandson make him superior to a granddaughter? In my eyes, grandsons and granddaughters are all the same! What? You're not convinced? If you're not convinced, then take your son and go back to your Zhang family! My Gu family will not tolerate a daughter-in-law who uses her daughter to exchange for a dowry! Get out!" Grandma Gu's gaze towards Zhang Shi had reached her limit.
"You wretched thing! Pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum confinement—a whole year has passed, and you've gotten all hot-tempered, haven't you? You think you're something special just because you had two sons? Let me tell you, in the Gu family, sons and daughters are treated the same. You'd better wake up! If you keep this up, you're fired!" Grandma Gu continued.
"Oh dear, Mother, what are you doing..." Zhang Shi plopped down on the ground and started throwing a tantrum.
Grandma Gu calmly raised the kitchen knife, which immediately silenced her. She got up from the ground and slunk away.
"Sigh!" Grandpa Gu sighed.
...
Uncle Gu was busy in the second room until very late before returning home. He washed up and went straight to sleep.
Zhang couldn't sleep, tossing and turning. Seeing that the man had already gone to bed, she quickly told Uncle Gu about the marriage.
Her response was Uncle Gu's snoring.
Zhang was furious and kicked Uncle Gu, but Uncle Gu flipped over and raised his long leg, landing it on Zhang's foot, rendering her unable to move.
The snoring was incessant, irritating Zhang. She knew this man was unreliable and would definitely side with her parents.
Oh dear, why is she so unlucky!
They've already given birth to two grandsons for the Gu family, so why don't they receive any treatment befitting a meritorious person?
She felt wronged!
While she was feeling aggrieved, Guo Wan and Qin Shi were also awake in the guest room.
Every time they came to the Gu family, the mother and daughter would sleep in one room, while Guo Yan would sleep with Uncle Gu.
"Mother, I like Zhou Yuan and I want to marry him. Please help me! Or, how about we ask my sister-in-law to speak to him?" Guo Wan said coquettishly, holding Qin Shi's hand.
“He said all that to you, why did you marry him? Yes, I admit, that young man is quite handsome, but we can’t marry him just because he’s good-looking! I can’t bear to see my precious child suffer,” Qin Shi said.
"But I just like him! I don't care, I'm going to marry him! I won't go to any more matchmaking events, even if Mom makes me! I want him! He says I'm ugly, but I'm going to marry him anyway, I'm going to conquer him! Mom, please help me!" Guo Wan continued to whine.
