He was also very agitated; he couldn't stand being in this house any longer. After hearing what his wife said, he suddenly raised his head.
"What did you say?" Xie Jiacheng looked incredulous. Where did she get the guts to offend Su Ti and the Guo family?
Let alone the in-laws of the Guo family whom they can't even reach, which one of the Guo family members is simple?
The Su family made such a fuss a while ago, and they just abandoned us like that. Now, nobody knows where those people from the Su family have gone.
Even so, now everyone says the Guo family is generous, and that it's the Su family who are bullying them too much.
Xie Jiacheng knew perfectly well that there was no telling what was going on behind the scenes.
He didn't believe the Guo family was innocent at all. When his grandfather told him to marry Su Ti, he didn't even dare to think about it.
Regardless of whether Su Ti looks down on him or not, the Guo family certainly wouldn't look down on him. He was well aware of his own family's situation.
As for the Guo family, he's afraid of them. He feels like he'd be betrayed by them and still be counting the money for them.
No matter how good Suti was, he didn't dare to accept her. Fortunately, the Guo family directly refused.
He didn't say a word when his father brought this up last night; none of this concerned him.
Unexpectedly, things have turned out this way; his wife went up and offended the person.
"Jiacheng, I didn't mean it. I was just upset at the time, so I blurted out a few words."
"Later I realized what had happened and apologized. Do you think that man really wanted to ruin my job?"
Zhang Leping is terrified. If he really takes action, not only the Xie family, but even her maternal family won't be able to do anything.
She might even hastily distance herself from them, and her sisters-in-law would surely gloat. The only reason she can act so arrogantly in front of them now is because she has a job.
She'll be able to move out and get a separate apartment later. They can't even find work, let alone have their husbands struggling to make ends meet as temporary workers.
Moving out is more of a dream than a reality; if she loses her job, things will be even harder for her.
"What... what should I say to you? Why did you go and provoke Su Ti? Didn't you hear Grandpa say that she married a very important person?"
"We'll never have the chance to meet someone who's more powerful than the Shanghai Commander. They don't even need to lift a finger; they just need to say a few words and they'll have plenty of people doing things for them."
Seeing his wife's expression, Xie Jiacheng knew that she must be upset by what his father and the others had said last night.
"Jiacheng, what should we do now? Should I go and apologize to her again?" Zhang Leping felt like he had been kicked in the head by a donkey.
“I’ll go find Grandpa first and ask him to come with us. If you don’t handle this well, your whole family will be implicated.”
"Grandpa was at least Commander Guo's former bodyguard, so he has some influence over you. Don't worry."
Seeing his wife like this, Xie Jiacheng comforted her while hurrying off to find his grandfather.
Being scolded harshly was inevitable, and when he finally told me that my family might also be implicated, I had no choice but to go with him, no matter how angry I was.
The rest of the Xie family didn't know what had happened; they just noticed that the old man looked unwell.
Zhang Leping's sisters-in-law were very dissatisfied, feeling that the old man only favored the fourth son. Back then, the fourth son's mother was beautiful, and even the children she gave birth to were the best-looking.
The fourth son is the most favored by the old man; you can tell just by looking at him, he's the only one in the family with a formal job, while the men are just temporary workers.
If it weren't for the fact that the old man is in charge of the family, and their father-in-law doesn't care about anything and they're expected to support him financially, and they don't have a mother-in-law, they would definitely make a scene.
Then we saw the fourth brother leading a group of people off somewhere again, with his wife carefully following behind.
Hmph, that couple is cunning and scheming.
Zhang Leping wasn't in the mood to care about what her sisters-in-law were thinking; she was only thinking about how to keep Su Ti's man from getting angry.
Even though everyone lives in the military compound, their family backgrounds and social statuses differ, so their houses are all different.
The Guo family's house was a two-story villa. It looked ordinary from the outside, but the courtyard inside was bigger than the entire house that the Xie family had been allocated.
The house where the Xie family lives belongs to their grandfather, and it's considered spacious within the military compound.
But he couldn't stop the children from being born, even though Grandpa Xie's two sons got married and moved out to live separately.
But the eldest son had five grandsons, and after they got married and had children, the house was simply too small for them to live in.
When the group arrived at the Guo family's house, they all took a deep breath. Even Old Master Xie didn't want to see the two things behind him anymore and was prepared to be embarrassed.
"What brings you here?" Commander Guo was taken aback when he saw the people. He knew how lively his house had been these past few days.
He knew who they were all coming for, but both kids were busy and hadn't been home for two days, so no one could find them.
So the Xie family has also heard the news and come knocking? Commander Guo looked at his old subordinates. If they came for this reason, he would be truly disappointed.
"Old Chief, I've come to apologize. My good-for-nothing granddaughter-in-law, when she met your daughter today, said something she shouldn't have."
"I panicked when I got back, and I rushed over with people to apologize. Could you please forgive her this time for the sake of this old man like me?"
Looking at his former boss, Old Master Xie was too ashamed to ask him to say it.
"What's going on?" Commander Guo looked at the person blankly. He hadn't heard his daughter mention this.
"Grandpa Guo, it's my fault. I was blinded by greed. I heard that my Jiacheng had been betrothed to Su Ti before, and I was upset about that, so I acted impulsively."
“I apologized to Suti, but I felt I wasn’t sincere at the time, so I wanted to go and say it again.”
Looking at Commander Guo, Zhang Leping had lost all his arrogance and became as humble as could be.
"Don't rush to apologize. I don't even know what happened yet. Besides, who told you that my daughter and Jiacheng have met?"
Commander Guo didn't agree with that. Not that he said he looked down on his old friend's grandsons.
His sons weren't very capable either; all of Guo's children, whether they were alive or not, were better than his family.
Is he out of his mind, or did the Xie family save their lives, that he's trying to push his daughter into a fire pit?
“Dad, Uncle Xie came to our door before and talked about this. He wanted our daughter to find a husband and mentioned Jiacheng. We refused at the time and never brought it up again. So we didn’t tell you.”
Guo Xuqing stood up and told her about it. At the time, she didn't take it to heart at all, and besides, Nannan was only fifteen years old.
Unexpectedly, this was the cause of the argument, and Guo Xuqing looked at the person with dissatisfaction and spoke up.
"That's all in the past, Nannan doesn't even know about it, it's not worth getting jealous over it."
