Chapter Seventy-Seven: Xie's Softening Stance



You can ask Yang to be greedy, you can ask her to try to gain an advantage in this matter, or even to curse and swear, and Yang will do all of that. But when it comes to using her brain, Yang really doesn't know how. Not only does she not know how, she even feels completely helpless at this moment. What should we do?

Gu Jiaojiao fell silent upon hearing this.

She really shouldn't have trusted her mother.

But at this point, who else could they turn to besides the Yang family?

Regardless of how worried the Xie family mother and daughter were at this time, Xie Shi and Gu Yunshan rushed to the town and went directly to Gu Sang's sauerkraut fish restaurant.

Upon arriving at the sauerkraut fish restaurant, Xie Shi adopted a humble demeanor.

That's how it is when you ask someone for a favor; no matter what happens, they'll always make the necessary gestures.

The Xie family did a very good job in this matter.

When Gu Sang saw Xie Shi's appearance, she couldn't really say anything. She blinked and looked at Li Shi beside her.

At this moment, Li's mouth dropped open in astonishment.

It wasn't that she was short-sighted; rather, in this matter, Li Shi never imagined that she would one day see her second sister-in-law in such a humble posture.

You should know that back when she was in the Gu family, it was always Li who was humble and always had to be their servant.

Even if you bring it up, there's nothing you can do about it, since the third wife has no human rights in the Gu family, right?

But now, the third branch of the family has stood up, and the second branch of the family has lowered Xie's pride in order to beg them.

To Li, this feeling was like a dream.

I can't believe it.

When Gu Sang saw Li Shi's appearance, he couldn't help but sigh.

I really feel sorry for Li.

You have to imagine how badly the Gu family bullied people for Li Shi to be so shocked when she saw this scene.

:"mother?"

Gu Sang called out to Li Shi.

It was at this moment that Xie raised her head and looked at Li.

When Xie saw Li's shocked expression, she didn't know what to say. She could only purse her lips, unsure of what to say.

You know, this whole thing has caused quite a stir... It all seems like nothing much at first glance, but Li's shock reminded Xie of the days when the third branch of the family lived in the Gu family.

At this moment, if I could empathize, I would also feel a pang of guilt.

"Third son's wife..."

Li quickly concealed the shock and astonishment on her face, and after a long while, she shook her head faintly.

"I'm fine." She said this to Gu Sang, then looked at Xie Shi, pursed her lips, and said, "Second sister-in-law, I have no right to interfere in this matter. No matter what happened, you know that the one who suffered was our Sang Sang. Although I am her mother, I can never truly understand the despair Sang Sang felt back then, so I will not advise Sang Sang to let those people go."

Li has now come to a clear understanding: no matter what happens, nothing is more important than her family. What Xie and the others did has nothing to do with her.

She wouldn't try to persuade Gu Sang.

Gu Sang nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this.

It must be said that what Li said really touched Gu Sang's heart.

If Li Shi were to get involved in this matter at this time, Gu Sang would be very unhappy, but now that Li Shi has intervened, Gu Sang is quite satisfied.

Li Rong and the others were watching from the sidelines, and at this moment they couldn't help but nod in agreement.

Li has truly seen through everything, which is why she will no longer do those things.

This is what growth is all about, even though it came at the cost of blood and tears for the Li family, it was worth it.

Madam Xie understood this, but all of this had nothing to do with their second branch of the family!

“Third son’s wife, I know you’re right, but this matter… really has nothing to do with my family. Besides, didn’t my second son tell you about this back then? He asked you to keep a close eye on Daya…”

Gu Sang was unaware of this; he looked at Li Shi.

Li nodded to Gu Sang.

"Back then, your third uncle told me to keep an eye on you, but he didn't say anything else. I don't know what was going on. Also, your grandma inexplicably gave me a lot of work, and threatened to beat you if I didn't finish it. I had no choice..."

With no other option, she could only go to work and completely forget about Gu Sang's matter. Now that she thinks about it, Li Shi is filled with regret!

If I had been able to withstand even a little bit of pressure back then, things wouldn't have turned out this way.

But it's too late to say all this now.

Li has regretted it more than once. She said that if she had been more careful back then, if she hadn't been so frightened, then wouldn't all these things have been avoided?

But what's most frustrating is having to dwell on these things.

After hearing Li's words, Gu Sang fell silent for a moment.

If what Li said is true, then this matter is going to be difficult. Moreover, strictly speaking, the second wife really hasn't done anything wrong.

At most, it could be described as indifference.

Actually, this is human nature. When it's not your business, it's naturally not appropriate for anyone to say these things. Thinking of this, Gu Sang pursed her lips.

Seeing Gu Sang's state, Xie was quick-witted and said, "Sang Sang, I know that what they did to you will never be forgiven by you in this lifetime, and it's right that you don't forgive them, but... your second uncle really didn't do anything, and I'm not heartless. I just hope... you can be lenient and get your second uncle out..."

You say the Xie family is heartless?

No, Xie really had no other choice in this matter.

The things the Gu family did were truly outrageous and unforgivable. Moreover, the Xie family isn't a saint and wouldn't care about such things.

Whether others are well or not is none of her business, but her only wish is that her own man is alright and that nothing bad happens to him.

Gu Sang actually agreed with Xie's words after hearing them.

Moreover, Gu Sang believed that what Xie said was exactly what was right!

Nobody is a saint, so why should we help others? Besides, those people are the perpetrators!
