Does Gu Jianhua really intend to push the door open and come in?
Gu Changzheng's lips twitched. Without a doubt, this old man was seeking revenge! Heh…
"Get out of my way!"
Lu Huaijiao pushed Gu Changzheng away; her hands were covered in water.
She glanced at her hands with disdain, wrinkled her nose, and glared at Gu Changzheng.
"I just changed my clothes, and you've gotten them dirty."
Gu Changzheng snorted, looking at the watermark in front of Lu Huaijiao, he did feel somewhat guilty. He touched the tip of his nose guiltily: "It's not like you're the one washing it, what are you afraid of?"
"Isn't that a waste of soap? Gu Changzheng, you're such a spendthrift."
Lu Huaijiao muttered to herself as she went inside, changed into clean clothes, and came out.
"This dress is made of silk. Don't wash it if your hands are rough, or you'll tear it."
After saying that, she went to open the door.
Gu Changzheng held the soft little clothes in his hands and sighed silently. This little troublemaker is delicate, and so are her clothes…
No, what he should be more concerned about is how he ended up doing all the laundry and cooking. Gu Changzheng felt that this couldn't go on; it was damaging to his manly dignity.
He needs to set some rules for Lu Huaijiao tonight!
He wants to assert his authority as a husband!
Outside.
The courtyard looked somewhat messy because it wasn't fully completed yet.
Tian Changsheng, holding the timid Tian Tian's hand, stood at the courtyard gate and spoke to Gu Jianhua.
Upon seeing Lu Huaijiao emerge, Tian Tian instinctively shrank behind Tian Changsheng.
Tian Changsheng and Gu Jianhua both heard the noise and turned around to see Lu Huaijiao. Gu Jianhua greeted her with a smile, "Jiaojiao, what brings you out? Where's that lazybones, Lao Si? Did he send you out?"
"Jiaojiao, don't be too gentle with him, don't be too easy on him, otherwise that brat will take advantage of your kindness."
Gu Changzheng, who had just changed his clothes and walked to the door, twisted his ankle and almost fell when he heard his father's words.
He said, "Lu Huaijiao is gentle?"
Are you sure you're not joking?
Gu Changzheng was experiencing a toothache, and his back was also throbbing with pain. The scratches left by the 'gentle' Lu Huaijiao were now soaked with sweat, and they felt incredibly hot and bothersome.
Fortunately, the Tian family grandfather and grandson were there after all. Whether it was Gu Changzheng, Gu Jianhua, or Lu Huaijiao, they all showed a relatively reliable side.
Lu Huaijiao invited Tian Changsheng to come inside and sit down, but Tian Changsheng shook his head and, with trembling hands, pulled out a few crumpled bills from his pocket.
“Lu Zhiqing, you saved Tian Tian today. Without you, she would be dead. I have nothing to thank you for, but this is the only money I can offer. Please accept it.”
Time has left its mark on the old man's face; the grief of outliving his child has made him look several years older than his peers. The immense pressure of life has also bent his back.
A man in his sixties shouldn't be in this posture.
At that moment, he held a few crumpled bills in his chapped, rough fingers. His slightly trembling hands highlighted his current predicament.
Lu Huaijiao glanced at it and saw that it was about five yuan.
But how long did the old man save up for those five yuan, and how did he manage to save it up right under the nose of that tigress Wang Dahua?
Lu Huaijiao's face scrunched up, her beautiful features contorted into a frown.
I'm very unhappy.
Gu Changzheng walked to her side and took her hand.
"Jiaojiao".
Lu Huaijiao's brows were so furrowed they could trap a fly.
"I don't want your money."
Tian Changsheng hadn't expected Lu Huaijiao to refuse so directly. He looked up, somewhat at a loss, and said, "But besides this, I really don't have anything else to offer right now..."
What are your plans to do about this?
Lu Huaijiao was referring to the incident where Tian Tian was kicked into the river and almost drowned.
Tian Changsheng didn't know why Lu Huaijiao asked this, but he had already thought about how to handle the matter when he returned from the riverbank.
He wants to divide the family property.
Since the eldest brother's family doesn't treat them like human beings, there's no need for him to rely on them anymore.
After thanking Lu Huaijiao and the others, he went back to divide the family property.
Knowing that Tian Changsheng was determined to split the family property, Lu Huaijiao nodded.
"Take the money back. There are many things to buy now that the family is splitting up, and many places where money will be spent."
“Lu Zhiqing…this…this…”
Tian Changsheng couldn't rest easy without giving Lu Huaijiao money or repaying her.
Seeing the old woman's troubled expression, Lu Huaijiao glared at Gu Changzheng beside her. Standing there silently like a doorman, was he?
Gu Changzheng never expected that he would be disliked for not speaking.
However, after receiving his wife's instructions, he still coughed and said, "Grandpa, Jiaojiao is right, you should take the money back!"
"The Long March..."
"It's nothing, don't worry about it. My dad's home right now, how about we have him come over and help you with the division of the family property?"
Gu Changzheng is good at changing the subject.
If he hadn't mentioned it, Tian Changsheng would never have thought of troubling Gu Jianhua. Now that Gu Changzheng had brought it up, Tian Changsheng was somewhat tempted, but ultimately felt a little embarrassed.
"Captain, this..."
“Let’s go, we’ll go with you to take a look. Your eldest daughter-in-law is no pushover. I’ll call the women’s director to come with us.”
Although this 'task' was assigned to him by his own son, Gu Jianhua really should go and take a look.
The rumors about Wang Dahua, the shrew from the third squad, abusing her own niece had been circulating for a long time. He had mentioned it to the squad leader of the third squad several times before, but it seemed that each time it had no effect.
