Yes, Gu Changhe was indeed unhappy.
Li Cuiping immediately shut her mouth.
She glanced at her husband cautiously, not daring to speculate on his intentions.
Among these sisters-in-law, she was the kind of person who was very dull in public. It wasn't because she couldn't talk, but because Gu Changhe didn't like talkative wives.
Li Cuiping is a woman who puts her husband first, so naturally she doesn't want to upset him.
Sure enough, when she looked at her like that, she stopped.
Gu Changhe scoffed.
"Do you think your sister-in-law is a smart person?"
Li Cuiping remained silent.
Gu Changhe held the child and fed him some steamed eggs. After watching the child finish eating, he put the bowl aside.
"Don't associate with your sister-in-law unless necessary."
One sentence interrupted Li Cuiping from saying anything else.
Li Cuiping mumbled an "okay."
"I see."
Gu Changhe carried the child back to his room, telling Li Cuiping to prepare the meal as soon as possible, and said nothing more.
The next day, Liu Chun saw Gu Changhe leave, and then she came to find Li Cuiping.
After arriving, she didn't say anything, but directly asked her what Gu Changhe had to say.
"What did your third brother say? Does he want to go with your eldest brother to ask Father for money?"
Liu Chun was longingly thinking about Gu Jianhua's meager salary!
Li Cuiping glanced at Liu Chun, then hesitated and shook her head.
"What's wrong, Third Sister-in-law?"
Now that Liu Chun has given birth to a son, she is completely different from how Lu Huaijiao was when she first married into the family.
She used to be timid and hesitant, never daring to speak loudly, and always swallowed her anger at Xu Honglian's bullying. Who knew that this change would happen because of giving birth to a son?
All I can say is that having a son really gives you confidence.
Especially in rural areas nowadays.
After all, very few people are like Gu Changzheng, who prefers his daughter to his son.
Only an ignorant rural woman like Liu Chun would think that having a son gives her support and confidence.
But I digress. Let's get back to the present.
Liu Chun pressed Li Cuiping for the reason.
Li Cuiping was unsure how to answer. The gate to their courtyard was pushed open, and Gu Changhe, who was supposed to be leaving, somehow turned back.
Liu Chun felt a little nervous when he saw Gu Changhe return.
She dared to speak loudly to Li Cuiping, but she was still somewhat afraid of this third uncle.
Gu Changhe glanced at Liu Chun and said directly, "Sister-in-law, what you want to do is your business. Don't involve Cuiping. She's not very bright and won't go with you."
Gu Changhe's words were certainly not polite.
Liu Chun's face turned pale instantly.
"Third Uncle, what do you mean by that?"
"What do you mean? Didn't you know before that Mom and Dad are now living with the fourth brother and his family? They won't need us brothers anymore. But that also means that Mom and Dad's things no longer belong to us."
For Gu Changhe, as the younger brother-in-law, to speak of his sister-in-law in this way was really too impolite.
But what followed was even more ruthless.
He continued in a nonchalant tone, "Sister-in-law, we don't know how thick-skinned you are, or what kind of thoughts you have in mind when you covet my father's meager salary. But don't come calling Cuiping. We still have our dignity; we know we shouldn't suck blood we shouldn't take."
If what they said before was disrespecting Liu Chun, their sister-in-law, then what they said next was to tear her face off and stomp on it.
Even with his thick skin, Liu Chun couldn't stand his brother-in-law saying such things.
She didn't dare to confront Gu Changhe head-on, so she could only glare at Li Cuiping.
"Third sister-in-law, I never expected you to be this kind of person."
This is a classic case of displaced anger.
Li Cuiping looked at Gu Changhe, who glanced at Liu Chun and smiled, "Sister-in-law, you're really quick-witted. If you used these ideas for good, you wouldn't be eyeing the old man's retirement money."
That's really going too far.
Liu Chun was so angry that he couldn't speak. He turned around and left their house, heading towards his own. Not long after, he heard Da Ya and Er Ya crying from next door.
Liu Chun hit the child while shouting and cursing loudly, using extremely offensive language.
Da Ya and Er Ya cried until their voices were hoarse, and Li Cuiping felt a little guilty.
"The Long River..."
Gu Changhe also disapproved of Liu Chun's actions, knowing that Liu Chun was deliberately beating the child to vent his anger in front of them.
"Take care of the child, I'm going out."
"Oh, okay."
Li Cuiping agreed and went inside to look after the child.
Gu Changhe glanced at the house next door, then went out and headed towards Gu Changzheng's house.
The Gu brothers' houses were originally one courtyard, each with its own wall, so they were naturally very close together. Therefore, when Liu Chun was hitting his child next door, Lu Huaijiao and the others could hear it.
He Meizhu and Lu Huaijiao were drying peanuts in the yard when they naturally heard Liu Chun next door beating his child.
Hearing Liu Chun's swearing and cursing, which was extremely offensive, He Meizhu's face turned very pale.
"I thought Liu Chun was a good person, but I didn't expect her to be so shrewish."
"Mom, aren't you going to go and check on them?" Lu Huaijiao was also in a bad mood after listening to Liu Chun's cursing. She felt that Liu Chun was indirectly criticizing others, using the beating of Daya and Erya as an excuse to vent her dissatisfaction with them.
Although she felt sorry for Daya and Erya, she was, after all, an aunt and couldn't very well step forward.
In this situation, it would be better to let He Meizhu handle it.
