Which parent would dislike their child as a burden?
Old Master Gu was utterly heartbroken over Yang Zhaodi.
Gu Laoda's attitude also extinguished Yang Zhaodi's last glimmer of hope.
She closed her eyes briefly: "Okay."
Upon hearing Yang Zhaodi's answer, Boss Gu breathed a deep sigh of relief.
He brought all the materials with him when he came this time.
With Gu Xichen by their side, the two quickly obtained their divorce certificate.
In the end, Gu Laoda only said one sentence to her: "We're divorced, and you also think the children are a burden, so let's not see each other again. Please don't go to see them in private anymore."
After saying that, he turned around and left without looking at Yang Zhaodi again.
The sunlight shone on him, making him appear exceptionally dazzling.
Gu Xichen silently followed beside him without saying a word.
"Third brother, do you think your older brother is useless?"
There was a hint of desolation in Gu Laoda's words.
He is the eldest of three brothers, but now he is the one who is having the worst life.
The child's school fees were borrowed from the mother.
I still owe my mother several tens of yuan, and I don't know when I'll be able to pay it back.
Luckily, they weren't strangers, otherwise I don't know how much they would have laughed at me.
Gu Xichen patted his shoulder, his deep voice filled with determination: "Things will get better."
Gu Laoda looked up at the sky, took a deep breath, and patted Gu Xichen's hand on his shoulder: "Yeah, it'll be alright."
He will work harder to earn work points in the future, and he can raise his two daughters on his own.
He walked a long way before he composed himself and asked his younger brother, who was a few centimeters taller than him, "Why are you back again? How long are you staying this time?"
"I'm not going back."
"Not going back? What do you mean? You've been discharged from the army? Don't scare me."
He always knew that joining the army was his younger brother's dream and his most beloved career. He would never have left the military if something hadn't happened.
"I'm fine, brother. I'll handle it myself."
Gu Xichen replied to him as if nothing had happened.
Gu Laoda also knew that his younger brother was capable, and he wouldn't say a word about things he didn't want to talk about.
"If there's anything I can help you with, just tell me."
"Um."
Gu Xichen's voice remained calm, showing no change whatsoever.
The eldest son of the Gu family didn't dwell on it anymore. He then talked to Gu Xichen about other things: "Dad is awake. Did you receive the letter that your third sister-in-law sent you? But it was only sent out recently, so I guess you haven't received it yet."
Gu Xichen finally stopped in his tracks, staring blankly at his eldest brother: "Big brother, what did you just say? Dad's awake?"
"Yes, they've already gone home. Your wife's younger brother has come too."
Two pieces of news in quick succession shocked Gu Xichen, and he could no longer remain calm.
He quickened his pace, now only thinking about getting home.
But Gu Laoda stopped him: "No one's going to town today, do you want to buy some meat? We all had a get-together yesterday, and we've already finished the meat and vegetables. Tonight, we should all eat separately."
They've already separated, so it's impossible for them to keep eating together.
It's acceptable for everyone to get together for a meal occasionally.
We don't usually have meat or vegetables at home; we mostly eat pickled vegetables and leafy greens.
However, it's also because the third son's wife has recently spoiled their palates.
Since she changed her gender identity, they have benefited from her and have enjoyed many meals of meat.
Normally, they wouldn't even dare to think about such things.
Only during festivals and holidays can one have a little meat.
After hearing what Boss Gu said, Gu Xichen changed direction without saying a word and headed straight for the meat processing plant.
Now he realizes that it was right for his wife to give him pocket money.
He needed money to buy her delicious food.
I have no idea what my brother-in-law likes.
He cut off a pound of pork belly and two pounds of spare ribs.
My wife loves pork ribs.
What would a brother-in-law like?
He racked his brains but couldn't come up with a solution.
I originally wanted to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some snacks to take back to my brother-in-law.
Thinking about the so-called space his wife had let him into before, he decided not to buy anything.
I just asked the butcher for a set of pig offal.
It only cost two cents.
The meat processing plant staff who were in charge of selling meat found it strange that people were buying pig offal these past two days.
How can something that smells so bad taste good when cooked?
Gu Xichen didn't care what others thought; after buying the things, he rushed home.
Even Gu Laoda could hardly keep up with his pace.
Gujia Village.
Jiang Jinxiu wandered around the village out of boredom and discovered that many fruits were ripe, both by the roadside and on the mountainside.
There were some that she couldn't name either.
But no one dared to pick them.
My mother-in-law had mentioned before that the fruit in the village was picked and distributed collectively.
Because they had to wait for the leader to give the order, many prematurely ripened fruits rotted on the trees or were eaten by birds.
What a waste! I wonder if Xichen will be able to eat some this year. It would be great if we could send some back to our parents.
Or, if possible, selling it would be a good option.
She looked at the slightly yellowed fruit by the roadside, lost in thought, when suddenly she seemed to hear a familiar voice echoing in her ears.
"young married woman……"
She could hardly believe it; was she hallucinating?
"young married woman……"
Another sound rang out.
The warm breath made her ears feel tingly and numb.
Jiang Jinxiu turned around and looked.
Gu Xichen.
She was both surprised and delighted.
Her eyes sparkled, and she hugged the man in front of her tightly.
"Xichen, Xichen, why are you back?"
The burning heat emanated through the clothes.
It's him, he's really back.
"Wife, it's me, I'm back."
Gu Xichen's eyes were full of affection, and his voice was still as deep, sexy, gentle, and magnetic as ever.
The two were so engrossed in each other's world that they didn't know how long they had been embracing.
A soft cough woke them up.
"Ahem, well, Third Brother, Third Sister-in-law, I'll head back now."
Jiang Jinxiu then realized that Boss Gu was also there.
She blushed deeply and immediately let go of Gu Xichen.
She brazenly asked, "Big brother, what are you doing here?"
“I’ve been here the whole time. Do you want to go back and hug me again? If other people see us, they’ll start gossiping again.”
Boss Gu made a couple of jokes in a good mood.
However, he is right.
If they run into someone they know, that's fine, but if they run into a gossipy woman like Li Cuihua, who knows what kind of rumors they'll spread about them.
Gu Xichen hummed in response, her ear tips turning red.
Neither of the other two noticed.
After finishing his sentence, Gu Laoda went home on his own.
Jiang Jinxiu and Gu Xichen followed slowly behind.
She tugged at Gu Xichen's sleeve: "Why did you come back with my older brother?"
