In the old house, in my grandparents' room.
Gu Ren was washed and placed on the bed. Grandma Gu sat on a chair in the room, looking at her two daughters-in-law and a future daughter-in-law standing in front of her.
Although she had combed her hair and washed her face, her clothes were still tattered, and the scratches on her face looked quite shocking.
Gu Ren lay on the edge of the bed, looking at the three daughters-in-law of the Gu family, and was very curious about how the old lady educated them.
He didn't create a character for the old lady at all; he just wrote a line about a fierce life and a lucky life, and that was it.
This is a real person, not a two-dimensional character he barely mentions in his writing.
Grandma Gu looked at the three people standing in front of her and rubbed her temples, feeling a bit of a headache.
"Mother, I was wrong!" Seeing Grandma Gu's expression, Zhang immediately knelt down and obediently admitted her mistake.
When Cai Xiaolian saw this, she thought, "Well, since my sister-in-law is kneeling, I'll kneel too, even though I don't know what I did wrong!"
When Yang Xiaohuan saw this, she thought, "Well, they've all knelt down. It's not good for me to stand. Anyway, I'll have to serve tea sooner or later, so kneeling down first is fine!"
Gu Ren was stunned. What were these three women thinking? The old lady was just rubbing her temples and they were so scared that they knelt down and begged for mercy?
Grandma Gu frowned: "What's wrong with it?"
Zhang hesitated and said, "We didn't win against those women from the Zhang family?"
Cai Xiaolian: "..."
Yang Xiaohuan: "..."
Grandma Gu: "...Anything else? Second son's wife, you tell me!"
Cai Xiaolian: So you really didn't win?
Seeing that Cai Xiaolian didn't speak, Zhang Shi chimed in, "And another thing is, the mistake we two sisters-in-law made was raising our daughters to be too beautiful, which caused trouble! But, the daughters all look like their grandmother! Hehehe..."
Gu Ren covered his face. This was too much flattery, too much self-aggrandizement!
Grandma Gu glared at Zhang Shi and said, "From now on, if you throw a tantrum or get into a fight outside, don't come back complaining if you can't win. Either don't fight at all, or if you fight, you have to win! You shameful things! Look at your faces, what do you look like? Aren't you afraid of scaring the children?"
Zhang immediately hugged Grandma Gu's leg: "Mother, it's just that I'm not as strong as you! If I were your daughter, I could definitely take on five people at once!"
Cai Xiaolian hugged Grandma Gu's other leg: "Yes, sister-in-law is right! It's just that we weren't born of a mother."
Yang Xiaohuan was a little conflicted; there were no feet for her to hug!
Gu Ren covered her face again. Oh no, oh no, the whole family is acting strangely. The Gu family's daughters-in-law are all being led astray by her fat mother, and the old lady just happens to fall for it.
Grandma Gu shook her foot: "You two, let go of each other! What are you doing in this sweltering heat? Look at Xiao Huan, how composed she is!"
Yang Xiaohuan said anxiously, "...Auntie, I, I don't have any legs to hold, do I?"
The room suddenly fell silent, then erupted in a burst of wild laughter.
"Hahahaha..."
...
Anyway, since Zhang admitted her mistake and promised that she would never be hurt so badly again, Grandma Gu didn't scold them.
The fault doesn't lie with those troublesome people; the second son's wife, with her temperament, wasn't the one who started it.
In the evening, Gu Shouxin returned first and saw Cai Xiaolian helping Granny Gui and Birong prepare dinner in the kitchen. He was about to tell her with a smile what he had bought that day when he saw the scratches all over the face of his only wife in both his lives. His anger suddenly surged up.
"Tell me, who is it?" Gu Shouxin grabbed Cai Xiaolian's hand, the sweltering heat unable to melt the frost on his face.
