Chapter 570: Life is too peaceful
Li Xueqin also laughed and said, "Mother Gu Jin has been gone for more than ten years. You have no relatives or friends with this child for all these years. You have raised her for more than ten years, which is really amazing. You have made a great contribution to our village. Sister-in-law Gu is really kind and righteous."
This was said too suddenly.
Besides, Chen Hong is not a fool.
Understanding the hidden meaning in Li Xueqin's words, the smile on her face faded a little: "How can I raise her? This child has a father who loves her, and the old man also treats her as a treasure. It's not my turn to raise her."
This is a fact.
For so many years, the reason why she was upset with Gu Jin for not working at home and eating for free was because of the money that Gu Dehao mailed back from the army.
The old man and her uncle both treated Gu Jin as their own daughter and granddaughter, and they didn't spend a penny on her, so she naturally had no objection.
Li Xueqin just thought she was being polite. In fact, she had no feelings for Gu Jin and wanted to send her out of the house.
She looked as if she understood, and continued, "I understand Sister-in-law Gu's difficulties. If she says that this is not her own flesh and blood, she just can't kiss it. But Sister-in-law has finally made it. Gu Jin is growing up and is of marriageable age. When she gets married, you will be free."
"How can you say that!" Chen Hong immediately retorted.
The smile on her face disappeared, and she said to Li Xueqin in a serious tone, "Jin girl is not close to me, but she is still a member of the Gu family after all. Even if she gets married, she will still be a member of the Gu family. How can this be a relief for me? The An family girl should not say such things carelessly."
The smile on Li Xueqin's face froze.
This was different from what she had imagined.
But she was also lively and immediately said with a smile: "Look at my mouth, I can't speak at all. Sister-in-law Gu, please don't mind me, I'm not good at speaking."
Chen Hong looked at her deeply.
This is not about not being able to speak, it's clear that there is something else behind his words.
She said with a stern face, "Sister An, if you have something to say, just say it directly and don't beat around the bush with me."
Li Xueqin pretended to be distressed and sighed: "This is quite difficult to talk about."
"Don't talk about making things difficult for me. I still have to dry the beans!"
Chen Hong stood up and was about to walk out the door, looking as if she didn't want to bother with her and rolled her eyes at her.
"No, let me tell you!" Li Xueqin quickly stood up and walked forward to hold the man.
She said bluntly: "It was not yesterday that Guoliang saw that girl Gu Jin, and he came home and started to quarrel with us, saying that he must marry that girl Gu Jin and ask her to be his wife!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Chen Hong understood everything.
Including the words the other party just said, both explicitly and implicitly, were all preparations for this.
She looked at Li Xueqin sympathetically and asked, "Are you here to propose marriage for your son?"
"Yes, you see, this girl Jin is already nineteen years old. My Guoliang is one year older than her and will definitely love her in the future. Sister-in-law Gu, we are old acquaintances. You decide whether to accept this marriage or not. As for the betrothal gift, as long as it is not outrageous, we can accept it!"
For the sake of her son, she tried her best!
Li Xueqin was ready, Chen Hong would open her mouth wide.
The other party shook his head at her and said, "Sister An, let's not talk about the fact that our two families are not familiar with each other. Just think about how Jin girl adopted your uncle's son. If the two families want to become relatives with this relationship, I think it's just a foolish dream."
Considering how much Gu Jin values An Mingji, it's good enough that she didn't find fault with the An family.
Right now, the An family still misses her, afraid that they are living too peacefully.
She really didn't know what to say to Li Xueqin, and she didn't know where they got the courage from.
