Chapter 634: Making Enemies Everywhere

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Gu Zi listened to her mother’s refusal, swallowing hard as she turned to look at Su Shen. The man calmly picked up the red booklet and placed it back in front of his mother-in-law. Without a hint of ostentation, he spoke in a simple and sincere manner, “Mother, you should accept this. There’s no need for formalities between us. Besides, renting a house in the city is indeed troublesome. For convenience, I’ve already bought a house in the city. There’s no need to worry.”

The moment these words were spoken, a prolonged silence fell over the dinner table. Mother Lin, Lin Lao’er, Lin Cheng, and Li Hua all wore expressions of shock, their mouths agape as if their jaws were about to drop. My God, how much money does he have?

He had given thousands in betrothal gifts, not once but twice, and had held such a grand wedding. He had even bought a car, a brick house in the village, and now two more houses in the town and the city…

Gu Zi, feeling helpless, spoke up again to ease the atmosphere, which had become somewhat stiff due to the older man’s display of wealth. She said to her family, “Mother, you can accept it with peace of mind. Su Shen doesn’t want me to worry about you, so he took care of everything. But we’re all family, there’s nothing we can’t accept. If you don’t accept this time, it won’t be easy for me to come back in the future.”

Su Shen nodded, indicating that Gu Zi had expressed exactly what he wanted to say. Indeed, it would be more dignified to accept. After all, hadn’t Su Shen given the Lin family plenty because of his love for Gu Zi?

They had accepted all the benefits before, so there was no need to refuse now.

In the end, Mother Lin accepted the house deed, saying, “Mother doesn’t have much to give in return. In the future, your sister-in-law and I will manage the shop well and make it bigger and stronger. Gu Zi, you focus on your work. We will work hard to realize your plans.”

On the way back to Daqing Village, Su Li eagerly asked about the new house in the city, “Mother, did you and father go to see the house today? Is our new home beautiful?”

Recalling what she had seen that day, Gu Zi responded without hesitation, “Yes, it’s absolutely beautiful, and it’s even bigger than the house we’re living in now. You’ll see it soon, and it will definitely meet your expectations!”

Su Li’s eyes widened in excitement, his voice unconsciously louder, “That’s great, brother, we also have a big house in the city, did you hear that? I’m so happy. Now we won’t have to worry about finding a place for Big Yellow to sleep. We’ll take Big Yellow with us, right?”

Su Bing looked at Su Li with an expression that suggested he was dealing with a simpleton. It was clear that Su Bing had already learned from their father. He spoke in a calm voice, “Father bought a villa with a yard. There’s enough room for not just one Big Yellow, but two more. Of course, we’ll bring him. But you should lower your voice, don’t wake up your little sister.”

If their little sister woke up, she might start crying and they would have to trouble their mother. Su Bing didn’t want their mother to be too tired. Clearly, Su Li also realized this and immediately covered his mouth with his small hand, no longer speaking.

He just stared out the car window at the retreating scenery, dreaming of their future life in the city. With his father, mother, brother, and Lele, it was sure to be even better than now!

In the city, Gu Shan went to the police station to submit an application to visit Lin Miao, and unexpectedly heard the news that Gu Zi’s younger uncle, Lin Yun, had been detained.

His face immediately changed, and he returned home in a rage, telling his wife Zhang Mei about it, “This Gu Zi is really outrageous. I knew there would be trouble when she opened that shop. I didn’t expect it to really happen, and it’s her own uncle who’s in trouble.

“What’s wrong with Gu Zi? She was fine when she was with us. Everyone liked her except for Gong Zhan, who was indifferent to her. But once she went to the countryside, she started making enemies everywhere and became such an ungrateful person. What are we going to do?”

Zhang Mei was also greatly shocked when she heard this. She stood up in anger and paced back and forth, “What, she’s not satisfied with sending her cousin Lin Jie to jail, and now she’s sent her own uncle there too?

“Ah, what is she doing? If this gets out, people might say how bad our Gu family’s upbringing is. Our own daughter is in jail, and our adopted daughter is ungrateful and making enemies everywhere.

“Husband, we can’t let her continue like this. When you have time, let’s go to the village to find her and talk to her. Why does she have to make things so irreparable? She’s becoming more and more unreasonable.”
