The Gu family father and son were both stunned.
Gu Jianhua never expected that his youngest daughter-in-law would buy Moutai as easily as she bought water. Just a few days ago, his wife had hidden two bottles from him, and now she's given him another one?
Is this because they're worried he won't have any alcohol to drink?
Gu Changzheng was thinking that it was a good thing that the little troublemaker knew how to please the elders, otherwise, with her reckless behavior of secretly letting her father drink alcohol, she would definitely be skinned alive by her mother.
Well, if any one of those brothers had done that, I can't even imagine the consequences.
Lu Huaijiao did not think she had done anything wrong.
Gu Jianhua is in excellent health and knows how to conduct herself properly. Drinking a little alcohol won't harm her health, so she doesn't think it's a big deal.
He Meizhu didn't allow Gu Jianhua to drink alcohol in order to save money.
Lu Huaijiao may not have much else, but she has a lot of money. There's nothing wrong with buying wine for her father-in-law!
In the end, Gu Jianhua didn't give out the money and even made a bottle of wine.
I must say, that Moutai smells amazing. He just opened it and took a sniff, and he already felt like he was getting drunk.
What will it taste like when you drink it?
He walked back to the courtyard with light steps, shaking his head.
"Did you give the money to Lao Si and the others?"
He Meizhu asked with a cold face.
Gu Jianhua exclaimed "Ah!"
Remembering how he had insisted on giving her the money, but Lu Huaijiao had said that men also need to have some savings of their own, he glanced at He Meizhu with a guilty look.
"Given...it must have been...given..."
"Really? I don't believe you at all."
He Meizhu looked at Gu Jianhua suspiciously, then walked over. She not only smelled a hint of alcohol on Gu Jianhua, but also felt the 'secret stash' of money he hadn't had time to hide in his pocket!
"Well, Gu Jianhua, you're getting old, and you've even learned to lie, haven't you?"
He Meizhu held up the money in her hand and questioned Gu Jianhua.
Standing before her now seemed not to be the village head of Dawan Village, but a child who had made a mistake.
"You're amazing! Not only did you lie, but you also secretly drank alcohol. Gu Jianhua, how can you be so capable?"
"Old He, you have to let me explain..."
"There's nothing to explain..."
He Meizhu glared at Gu Jianhua: "You can't even handle such a small matter? Go back to work."
After driving the people away, He Meizhu took the money and went to Lu Huaijiao and the others.
Lu Huaijiao, who was humming a song while waiting for Gu Changzheng to make breakfast, immediately welcomed He Meizhu into the house when she saw her coming.
“Mom, did you just scold Dad? You’ve misunderstood him. It’s not that he didn’t want the money, it’s that we didn’t want it.” Lu Huaijiao was quite frank. Knowing He Meizhu’s purpose, she absolutely didn’t pretend to be confused.
He Meizhu looked at Lu Huaijiao with disapproval.
“Jiaojiao, you have to have this money. We’ve already separated the family, so we can’t take any more of your money.”
"Mom, you know I have a lot of money."
Gu Changzheng, who was carrying noodles in, almost dropped the bowl when he heard his wife's words.
Yes, everyone knows Lu Huaijiao is rich!
Lu Huaijiao shouldn't be called Lu Huaijiao; she should be called Lu Huaijin, the little troublemaker carrying a mountain of gold.
However, no matter how much I complained in my heart, I absolutely had to cooperate with my wife's work.
"Mom, Jiaojiao is right. These bricks don't cost much. I'll pay for them right now."
"That's right, Mom. Gu Changzheng is also rich, although not as much as I am."
"..."
Gu Changzheng was once again deeply hurt.
Despite being bombarded by her son and daughter-in-law, He Meizhu never wavered in her principle of giving money.
“The family has already separated. Your money is yours, and we will definitely give you what we are owed.”
"mom……"
Lu Huaijiao said sadly, "When you make such a clear distinction, I feel like you don't want us anymore."
"Silly child, why would you think that?" He Meizhu sighed and reached out to touch Lu Huaijiao's hair. "I'm doing this for your own good. I can't let you suffer losses just because you're willing to give them up."
"That won't do; I can't do something so biased."
Honestly, if it were any other mother-in-law, when faced with a daughter-in-law like Lu Huaijiao who was carrying a mountain of gold, she would definitely want Lu Huaijiao to spend money to help support the family.
But He Meizhu is not that kind of person.
This is also why Lu Huaijiao likes her.
If she had really encountered a mother-in-law who was only interested in money, Lu Huaijiao would have kicked her long ago.
In the end, they accepted the money, but He Meizhu refused their offer to stay for a meal and got up to leave.
Lu Huaijiao looked at the money in her hand, then glanced at the place where He Meizhu and the others lived, and said with a gloomy expression, "Gu Changzheng, if we get divorced in the future, you can have the child, but I will take my parents-in-law with me."
Gu Changzheng's hand trembled!
If I don't teach Lu Huaijiao a lesson one night, she'll act like she's on top of the world. She even thought about divorce?
"Eat noodles!"
He placed the noodles in front of her with a disgruntled expression. This person likes to overthink things; she's probably just bored!
…………
Fearing that Lu Huaijiao might overthink things if she had too much free time, Gu Changzheng allowed her to go back to work after she had rested for three days due to her injury.
In three or four days, the Gu family's courtyard was successfully divided into three courtyards: one for Gu Changzheng and his family, and one for the elderly couple. The doors were all changed to face the back of the original house.
It can be said that they are now completely separated from other families.
This caused quite a stir in the village, with some people trying to get information from Liu Chun and Li Cuihua. However, the two sisters-in-law knew what they should and shouldn't say, and remained silent.
