Gu Jinxuan laughed coldly. “Why should she? Because Youngest Aunt and Ting Ting earned the money themselves. They can buy whatever they like with their own money. The money wasn’t from Grandfather or Grandma.
“You can also give money to your mother if you have the ability to do so. We’ve never prevented you from being filial to your family. We simply do not permit you to care for them at the expense of your own family.”
Zhou Ping could not bear to listen to this any longer. She did not believe that a divorced woman like Gu Yunshuang could do much.
She did not work much. She depended on the Gu family for her living expenses and to attend university. She could not possibly have the money to buy the house if the Gu family had not given it to her.
“Nonsense! I know what your youngest aunt is like! She’s just a divorced woman from the countryside. Why should she have so much money to buy a house? I’ve already said that your grandparents are rich, why won’t you believe me? Surely you have to believe me now?
“Why should those people in the Gu family have such a good life? Don’t they owe it to your grandparents? Only our family is so foolish as to live apart from the rest. I’ve always been telling you to ask them to hurry up and move to the capital. Your grandparents got a huge sum of money when the country compensated them for the property and goods that they lost! They wouldn’t be leading such a good life if the Old Master and Old Madam were not providing them with money!”
Zhou Ping immediately threw a tantrum!
“My God! I can’t live like this any longer. We have a share in the Gu family’s fortune, but our family is starving to death while others use the money to buy houses and cars! My brother has been forced to go to jail. Heaven is so unfair, wu wu wu wu…”
“That’s enough!” Gu Yundong could not stand watching Zhou Ping throwing a tantrum. All the children were home today. It did not matter if Gu Jinlin and Gu Jinxuan witnessed this because they were adults. But Little Seven and Little Eight were here!
They were not yet adults. What would they think if they saw their own mother behaving like that?
“Have you ever lacked for food or clothing in this family? Stop coveting the little money Old Master and Old Madam have. They don’t have much income, and their money is for their old age. Why should you covet it?”
“Why shouldn’t I covet it? Zhou Ping bellowed. “We have a share in the Gu family fortune. Why should my brother and nephew have to go to jail just because I spend some money, while others take the money to buy houses and enjoy life? Look at how they live and look at how we live?
“We have four children. I bore your family four sons! Why should they be so biased?”
Gu Jinlin sat and watched Zhou Ping. He said calmly, “That money represents my grandparents’ life savings. They have suffered so much to get that little bit of money. It’s only right that they keep it for their old age.
“We’re adults now and should depend on ourselves. Coveting the little bit of money that belongs to the old folks is not right.
“Besides, don’t change the subject. How do you know that Youngest Aunt took money from our grandparents to buy the house? I heard from Yao Yao that Ting Ting has been running a business. She and Jiang Xun attend school and run a business at the same time. They’ve earned a lot of money!”
“Nonsense!” In Zhou Ping’s world, women were practically useless. A woman who did not work could not earn money.
Her worldview was very narrow, and she was very ignorant. She had lived within her own little circle all these years.. She did not know that the world had changed.
