Wang Guihua's face darkened when she saw the child run out again.
Logically speaking, Genlin and Gao Dani wouldn't have gone out and talked about their divorce on their own initiative.
In addition, I haven't told anyone that I've been feeling unwell lately.
It definitely couldn't be Ning Jing's family, so apart from Gao Dani herself, it's hard to guess who else could it be.
Meanwhile, Gao Dani was at the Gao family home, being scolded by her father.
"Are you stupid?"
"They told you to come back, so you came back?"
Gao Dani lowered her head, too ashamed to look up, after being scolded.
Hearing her father say this, she couldn't help but mutter in defense, "Father, didn't the Zhao family promise to give us 500 catties of grain?"
I agreed because I was worried that my father and younger siblings would go hungry.
"500 jin of grain?"
Gao Dashan, Gao Dani's father, gasped as a sharp glint flashed in his eyes.
Gao Dani's younger brother and sister almost drooled when they heard this.
500 jin of grain! So much grain! With this grain, they can eat their fill every day, just like they used to eat in the canteen!
Gao Dashan, however, was much smarter. He smacked his lips and then came to his senses.
With a stern face, he said to Gao Dani, "Foolish! Since the Zhao family can produce 500 jin of grain, it proves that they have more than 500 jin of grain, not less."
If you stay with the Zhao family, you can get some food anytime to help your brother out.
One approach was a long-term, sustainable strategy, while the other was a one-time buyout—what a loss!
After Gao Dashan said that, Gao Dani's original idea that she had gotten the better deal immediately began to waver.
“But, but the Zhao family really doesn’t have that much grain. I think they must have borrowed it from someone else.”
As for who the other person is, Gao Dani doesn't need to guess to figure it out. Who else could it be but Fu Hongxing and Ning Jing?
After all, it was Ning Jing who took the lead and agreed to provide 500 jin of grain.
Upon hearing his eldest daughter's words, Gao Dashan couldn't help but poke her forehead hard with his finger.
"I told you you're stupid, but you won't admit it. Since they were willing to lend the Zhao family so much grain, wouldn't they just lend it to them again if they ran out of grain in the future?"
As Gao Dashan poked her forehead and scolded her, Gao Dani felt even more that her father was right. How could she have agreed so easily?
Then, she remembered that Ning Jing had agreed to her condition of 500 jin of grain, and her envy, jealousy and hatred towards Ning Jing intensified.
She resented Ning Jing for meddling in other people's business. If Ning Jing hadn't agreed on behalf of the Zhao family, she wouldn't have been in such a predicament and had to sign that agreement.
Now that the agreement has been signed, there is no room for negotiation.
I didn't think much of it before because I felt like I got the better deal, but now that I know I've been taken advantage of, how can I not feel resentful?
Gao Dashan glanced at his eldest daughter and saw her standing there meekly, letting him beat and scold her.
Since things had already come to this, I decided to try and calm my eldest daughter down first.
We must get those 500 jin of grain back before we think of any other solutions.
"Did the Zhao family ever mention giving you grain on several occasions?"
Hearing her own father's question, Gao Dani paused for a moment, thought for a while, her expression changed, and then she shook her head hesitantly.
Gao Dani actually thought that Zhao Genlin and his family wouldn't renege on their debts.
At the time, she was only thinking about writing a note to prove that the Zhao family was giving her grain, and she didn't think much about anything else.
