Pushing through the crowd, Gu Changzheng saw the shocking bloodstains on Lu Huaijiao's wrist, and all his anger vanished in an instant. He walked a few steps to Lu Huaijiao's side, knelt on one knee, and took her hand.
"Jiaojiao, it doesn't hurt. We'll go apply the medicine now."
While gently blowing air onto it, he glanced at Gu Jindan with his slightly narrowed eyes.
Gu Jindan was terrified and took a few steps back, hiding behind Xu Honglian.
Gu Changzheng didn't want to cause trouble for Gu Jindan right now. He needed to take Lu Huaijiao, this spoiled brat, to get her medicine first, otherwise she would definitely start crying later. He withdrew his gaze and looked down at the person in front of him.
Lu Huaijiao was stunned.
So when she was scratched, she was stunned and didn't react much.
Seeing Gu Changzheng kneeling in front of her, holding her wrist, she snapped out of her daze. Her wrist had been scratched by that annoying kid, Gu Jindan.
"You brat..."
Lu Huaijiao stood up, puffing out her cheeks as she stared at Gu Jindan: "You actually dared to hit someone?"
Gu Jindan shrank back behind Xu Honglian.
Xu Honglian hadn't expected Gu Jindan to grab Lu Huaijiao's wrist like that. A fleeting moment of embarrassment crossed her face, but she quickly composed herself.
It's all Lu Huaijiao's fault. If she hadn't deliberately used candy to tease Jindan and the others, how could Jindan have tried to catch her?
Yes, so it's all Lu Huaijiao's fault.
Once Xu Honglian had made up her mind, she perked up again and spoke with righteous indignation: "Jin Dan's aunt, is this how an elder behaves?" She paused, then looked at Gu Changzheng, who had been silent, and continued: "His fourth uncle, you..."
"Second sister-in-law."
Gu Changzheng held Lu Huaijiao's hand and raised the injured area to face Xu Honglian: "Before you criticize others, don't you look at yourself first? Have you ever seen a child who dares to lay a hand on their elders?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Changzheng's gaze fell on Gu Jindan, who was hiding behind Xu Honglian.
"Gu Jindan, apologize to your aunt right now."
"Fourth Uncle..."
Gu Jindan let out a trembling cry, and Gu Changzheng gave a cold "hmm." Gu Jindan was so frightened that she almost cried. She dared not act spoiled anymore. She pouted and whispered something, wanting to cry but not daring to.
"sorry."
"Speak louder, are you mute?"
Gu Changzheng's expression was serious, and his cold rebuke startled everyone present.
Gu Jindan burst into tears and shouted at the top of her lungs, "I'm sorry, Auntie!"
After shouting, she turned and ran away, feeling extremely wronged.
Xu Honglian felt both heartache and anger.
She felt sorry for her son who had been wronged, but she was also angry because it was clearly Lu Huaijiao's own fault, so why should Jindan apologize?
It was clearly Lu Huaijiao who provoked Jindan and the others with the candy, and Jindan couldn't stand it, so he took action. How can you blame Jindan? You should blame Lu Huaijiao.
Xu Honglian was furious and wanted to get justice for her precious son.
"Fourth Uncle, you can't be so biased. These Golden Egg and Treasure Egg are your own nephews. The blood of the Gu family flows in their veins."
The way you're saying this makes it sound like Lu Huaijiao, who doesn't have Gu family blood, is an outsider.
Lu Huaijiao found it amusing.
"Tsk tsk, second sister-in-law, according to what you're saying, my husband will prioritize your two sons for everything he wants? Then let me ask you this boldly: what benefits can your two sons bring to my husband?"
Xu Honglian was stumped by Lu Huaijiao's question.
Lu Huaijiao didn't give up. She continued, "I can warm the bed and have children for my man. Can your son do that? No? If not, don't blame my man for favoring me."
Her soft, sweet tone carried her usual arrogance and unreasonableness.
Gu Changzheng glanced at the man with his chin slightly raised, like a victorious rooster, and couldn't help but smile.
This girl has no sense of propriety when she speaks. She said things like "giving birth in a warm bed." You can't just say things like that in public.
"Should we go back and apply the medicine first?"
When he spoke, his tone of voice softened considerably.
Lu Huaijiao snorted, glared at the dumbfounded Xu Honglian, and then turned to walk back to her place. Before leaving, she didn't forget to say to Daya and Erya, "Daya, Erya, you two remember this: we women are not inferior to others. If someone bullies us or we encounter injustice, we must fight back."
“Everyone is independent, and no one, no matter who they are, should bully others.” As she said this, her eyes swept over Xu Honglian to the side.
Despite being a woman herself, Lu Huaijiao felt disgusted by how he constantly called other women "money-losing goods."
This second sister-in-law holds the same place in her heart as Li Xiaoya.
I absolutely hate it.
Lu Huaijiao turned around angrily, but after taking a few steps, she remembered Liu Chun, the sister-in-law who had secretly pinched Daya and Erya. She stopped and glared at Liu Chun again.
Liu Chun lowered his head.
Lu Huaijiao snorted, without naming anyone, and said as if to herself, "She doesn't even dare to protect her own child, what a failure." Then she went into the room.
Gu Changzheng looked at the angry figure and inexplicably wanted to laugh. He raised his hand to cover his mouth and told Gu Changyuan to take the two children back to their side as well.
“Brother, Jiaojiao is right. Whether the child is a boy or a girl, they are our own children. You shouldn’t just focus on work; you should pay more attention to the children’s health.”
"I know, I know the fourth brother."
