"Sister, I heard from Aunt Niu that my brother-in-law's 'younger brother' seems to have gotten rich recently!"
"I bought a bicycle! And I put on shiny new leather shoes!"
"Isn't he an apprentice boilermaker? Where does he get so much money?"
Gu Si's wife is like a qualified gossip carrier, and she shares the news of the surrounding alleys with Gu Qingcheng accurately every day.
Qiao Weiguo?
When Gu Qingcheng heard about this person, an image of a person whose face was quite in line with the aesthetics of this era, but whose eyes had a restless look, emerged in her mind.
He is Suanna's "official match".
If Su Anna had not awakened, he would have married Su Anna, and then used the Su family's connections to step by step reach the pinnacle of life.
"More than that!"
Huoshui sensed Gu Qingcheng's thoughts and said, "The Su family still has some antiques and calligraphy and paintings, which Qiao Weiguo helped to 'hide'."
"The things were saved, but the surname was changed from Su to Qiao."
"In the late 1970s, Qiao Weiguo relied on the Su family's wealth to obtain the initial capital for starting a business and became the richest man of his generation."
"Of course, Qiao Weiguo didn't burn his bridges. Even though he had many female confidantes, his only legal wife was Su Anna."
Gu Qingcheng: ...
This statement was so full of complaints that she didn't even know where to begin.
Moreover, inexplicably, Gu Qingcheng had a strange sense of "familiarity".
Her husband in her previous life, Yuwen Heng, was also so affectionate and loyal.
With the support of the Gu family and Gu Qingcheng's assistance, he ascended the throne.
Then, he began to have a concubine on his left and a confidante on his right.
Gu Qingcheng has the throne of queen but is neglected.
Yuwen Heng felt that he was very loyal and righteous, as he had given Gu Qingcheng the honor of being his legal wife.
Coupled with Gu Qingcheng's ugly appearance and Yuwen Heng's various philanderings, many court officials and even common people felt that it was "natural"!
“…” Thinking of his own experience, Gu Qingcheng’s fists hardened.
"However, fortunately for you, Your Majesty, Su Anna no longer becomes a stepping stone on Qiao Weiguo's road to success."
Huoshui didn't know what Gu Qingcheng was thinking, and continued happily, "And he's courting death now—"
Having said that, Huoshui paused deliberately, leaving the audience in suspense.
Gu Qingcheng was too lazy to listen. She waved her hand and said, "Without Su Anna, Qiao Weiguo would just be an ordinary boiler worker apprentice!"
But now he is buying a bicycle and big leather shoes, obviously taking a "shortcut".
Haha, there are no shortcuts in the world.
Either you sacrifice your conscience, or you sacrifice your freedom or even your life!
Gu Qingcheng didn't want to know what Qiao Weiguo was doing, but she dared to bet that this guy would probably go to accompany Lu Xinhua soon!
In fact, he is even worse than Lu Xinhua!
Troublemaker: ...
I want to keep someone in suspense, but I can't sell it. This feeling is a bit frustrating.
But before Huoshui could say anything else, Gu Qingcheng threw it into the small dark room again.
"Also, the Bai family is making a fuss too!"
"Didn't our cousin Gu Changhe previously insist on changing the surname of his second child?"
Just as Gu Qingcheng was chatting with Huoshui, Gu Si's wife, who was still sharing gossip, changed the topic.
"Yeah! You said this before. Aunt Liu didn't spoil him. Not only did she change the surname of Bai Si Ni's unborn child to Gu, she also changed the surname of the eldest child."
Gu Qingcheng was quite familiar with the affairs of Widow Liu's family.
In fact, when she first saw Gu Changhe in the slum, she felt that the "harmony" in this family would not last long!
Gu Changhe is obviously a "proud" man, and he doesn't want to be a son-in-law from the bottom of his heart.
At that time, Gu Qingcheng was worried that Widow Liu and Bai Sini might suffer.
Once a son-in-law turns against his wife, he will not show any gratitude or affection at all.
For a recent case, you can refer to Meng Yao’s adoptive father Yu Xingwang.
Gu Changhe may not be as conscienceless as Yu Xingwang, but his character is not tough and he also has his own little calculations.
When the secular perspective and the criticisms around him can no longer bear him, he will "turn against them"!
Especially now that his cousin Gu Xiaoni had a stable job and became a master chef in the factory, Gu Changhe became even more intolerable.
So, after Bai Si Ni lost her second child, Gu Changhe went to "discuss" with Widow Liu: "Mom, after this child is born, let's give him the surname Gu."
"I am a man after all, I can't be without a successor."
"But don't worry, the eldest brother's surname is still Bai, and he is your grandson!"
Gu Changhe felt that he had been very reasonable and had taken the overall situation into consideration.
However, Widow Liu deeply felt Gu Changhe's restlessness from his words.
What made Widow Liu even more angry was Bai Sini’s attitude.
This damn girl didn't object to Gu Changhe's words, but instead showed an attitude of tacit approval!
It just so happened that Yu Xingwang's incident happened at that time -
The son-in-law took over his father-in-law's property and oppressed his own daughter who had the same surname as his father-in-law.
He said he found an apprentice, but in fact he was his own son!
This calculation and this viciousness really frightened Widow Liu.
Widow Liu was a woman who was able to keep her house and job after her husband passed away. She was also able to raise her three daughters and find a son-in-law for her youngest daughter.
She is not an ordinary housewife.
She knew very well that every mother-in-law was different from every other mother-in-law.
Gu Changhe is a son-in-law who lives with the family, and his mother-in-law, Widow Liu, is the head of the family.
