Chapter 647 649. Take it back
Li Chuncao has already weighed the matter in her mind at this moment. Her biological father is unreliable. If they go to the He family, the two sisters will definitely be schemed against.
It would be better to go to the Shi family. Although their biological mother is unreliable, their stepfather relies on the Gu family for his livelihood and he would definitely not dare to treat them badly.
But for them, neither of these two places can compare to the Gu family.
She was unwilling to be married off like this.
What kind of marriage did his grandmother find for him? Either an ordinary farmer's family or a wealthy family. But after marrying into that family, everything will be a mess.
That kind of village woman's life was not what she wanted.
He said he treated her like his own granddaughter, but it was clear from this that they were not close friends.
Gu Lehua is inferior to herself in appearance and figure, but she is looking for a husband's family. A future juren can be called Madam as soon as she marries. This is too unfair.
Seeing that she remained silent, Li Cuicui felt even more disappointed.
He turned around and asked Luo Gang to call his daughters-in-law over, and then asked him to drive the carriage to the next village to call Gu Yuanfeng as well.
There were a room full of women, and Li Cuicui brought up the topic directly.
"Yuan Feng, I have helped you raise these two daughters. The eldest daughter is about to leave home, so as a mother, you should keep her by your side and educate her for a while.
If you think there is a suitable one, you can decide on it.”
Gu Yuanfeng had been holding a grudge since he was driven away by his own mother last time.
Later, she heard that the children of several of her brothers were all taken care of by Gu Wenheng, and she was so angry that she almost made a scene again.
If Shi Dayong hadn't said that the family business still depended on the Gu family, she really wouldn't have been willing to make this trip.
I thought that this time she was called over because her mother wanted to surrender, but I didn't expect that she was going to push these two hot potatoes on her.
She looked at the two girls unhappily and said, "If mom doesn't like them, just send them to the He family. The kids I have at home are already enough to give me a headache. I really can't take care of them."
"What nonsense are you talking about? These two are your own daughters." Li Cuicui looked at her in disbelief, "I called you here to inform you. If you can't make the decision, then I will have someone call Shi Dayong over."
"Mom..." Gu Yuanfeng suddenly said loudly, "Can't I just have a few days of peace? I finally got a foothold in the Shi family. If I take them back now, I don't know how much gossip others will say."
"What's there to gossip about? It's such a small place, everyone knows who knows who." Li Cuicui's eyes showed disappointment. "You didn't even ask Shi Dayong, and you said such things directly?"
Seeing that Li Cuicui's hands were shaking with anger, Xie Ruyi and the others didn't dare to sit down. Some patted the old lady's back, some rubbed her hands, some brought water, and tried their best to calm the old lady down.
"Mom, please don't be angry. If you get angry and make yourself sick, the men at home will be worried." Liu Liu brought the tea to her lips, "Take a sip of water first. I'll ask someone to call a doctor."
Even though she was a woman, she knew the importance of Li Cuicui in this family.
To be more selfish, if anything happened to Li Cuicui, Gu Wenheng's official position, which he had not yet secured, might have to change hands.
In the past, they all hoped that their parents-in-law would leave as soon as possible so that they would have no one to control them and they could feel more free.
How could they dare to have such thoughts now? They just wished that the old couple would live a long life so that their children and grandchildren could grow up.
"I'm fine. I really don't know what sin I committed to give birth to such an evil creature." Li Cuicui was still angry, "Don't you see that I'm already old, and I still have to worry about you.
Besides, marriage is something that should be decided by parents, and it is not appropriate for me, as a grandmother, to interfere."
"Mom, it was you who wanted to keep them here back then." Gu Yuanfeng said with resentment, "Besides, you changed their surname to Li, so naturally it's up to you to take care of them. I won't interfere in their affairs."
If he were to bring her back at this time, he would have to pay a dowry. Gu Yuanfeng didn't want his little treasure's property to be divided up by others.
No one knows a daughter better than her mother. Li Cuicui calmed down and said, "I am not as cruel as you, letting the two children fend for themselves.
I know what you are worried about. Don't worry, I can still afford the dowries for the two girls."
It’s not that she didn’t want to hand this matter over to her daughters-in-law, but when she thought of Chuncao’s current personality, she immediately gave up the idea.
After her careful observation over these days, she was sure that the child had grown crooked.
If the daughters-in-law were to do this, not only would they be blamed, but they would also be hated by this girl in the future.
Since it was Gu Yuanfeng's own fault, she should end it herself.
Gu Yuanfeng breathed a sigh of relief. This was not a bad thing.
At this moment, she was even thinking about which family to introduce this girl to. After all, she was her biological mother, and if she lived close to them, she would be able to order them around in the future.
Li Chuncao secretly hated her and knelt in front of Li Cuicui, grabbing her legs and crying, "Grandma, can't I marry you? I agree to the family you mentioned before. I will marry you."
Compared to falling into Gu Yuanfeng's hands, the family he looked down upon before is actually a good place to go. After all, there is the relationship with the Gu family, and he can plan slowly in the future.
Li Cuicui now felt that the previous families were not suitable, "Before you kept crying and they rejected you directly.
I, an old woman, don't have the dignity to go and beg for mercy.
Maybe I'm too old and you don't like what I see, so you should let your mother help you choose.
I'll ask Mrs. Song to help you pack up later, and you can move to the Shi family and live there for a while.
If there is a suitable one, grandma will help you prepare your dowry, which will complete our relationship as grandparents and grandchildren."
The implication was that the matter ended here and Li Cuicui was unwilling to interfere in her affairs anymore.
Li Chuncao wanted to plead again, but Li Cuicui grabbed Liu Liu's hand and said, "I'm tired. Take me to the room to rest first."
Liu Liu immediately pulled Li Chuncao away, and followed several sisters-in-law to send the old lady into the room.
Once the doctor was called in, the brothers of the Gu family soon knew about it, and even the old patriarch sent someone over to inquire.
Li Cuicui saw that her son and daughter-in-law were in the room, so she took the opportunity to speak directly.
"It's not that I'm cruel, but there can't be any mistakes in our family.
Chuncao has grown up as a bad girl and has become too conceited. I thought she could learn something in school all these years, so I neglected her education. It's all my fault.
I wanted to help her find a wealthy family, but she didn't like any of them.
In that case, I'll let Yuanfeng take the person back.
I was the one who decided to keep them here, so I have a certain responsibility. I will prepare dowries for these two girls so that you can have peace of mind."
