Mo Beihan was rather surprised!
His first response was not joy, but concern.
Knowing Yao Yao, sothing must have happened for her to refuse to stay with them.
“What’s the matter? Is there a conflict between you?”
Gu Qingyao put the grain in a parcel and shook her head. “It doesn’t count as a conflict! I’m just worried that things will beco unpleasant if I stay too long with my third uncle’s family. Third Aunt dislikes . The last ti I stayed with them, there was trouble. I had better keep my distance this ti! In any case, I’m not staying here for long, so I might as well stay at your place!”
Mo Beihan frowned as he thought about what had happened last ti.
“Besides the incident that I encountered, were there any other worse quarrels?”
Gu Qingyao smiled calmly and did not conceal it. “I’m sure you rember Zhang Qiang! The Zhang family was doing so well then! Third Aunt was delighted when she heard that Zhang Qiang had taken a fancy to . She wanted to marry to the Zhang family because it would benefit the Gu family.
“Third Uncle and Third Brother were very disappointed and they lost their tempers. Third Aunt said so nasty things, and because of that, Third Uncle slapped her two or three tis.”
Mo Beihan said, “So what? Third Uncle is not the kind to casually hit a woman. She must have crossed the line for him to strike her.”
Gu Qingyao nodded. “She did go overboard, which was why Third Uncle hit her.”
“That’s settled then!” Mo Beihan did not think much of it.
Gu Qingyao sighed and said to Mo Beihan earnestly, “I don’t really detest Third Aunt, but I don’t really like her either. Anyway, things are like that, and I seldom interact with her. In the past, she stayed in the provincial capital while I stayed in our hotown. In the future, I will marry you and move to the Mo house, and I won’t be related to her.
“Besides, even if she wanted to harm , she doesn’t have the ability to do so. But she thinks about it. I don’t care, but Third Uncle and Third Brother do!
“The Gu family has always been very united. If Third Aunt is always plotting against , after a while, Third Uncle will quarrel with her. I hope that won’t happen.
“My third uncle and third brother all dote on . I don’t want my stay to displease Zhou Ping or make her think of ways to harm , which will lead to divorce with Third Uncle. You should know that if Third Aunt tries to harm anyone from the Gu family and goes overboard, Third Uncle will definitely divorce her.
“Why disrupt their marriage? After all, Zhou Ping is just a housewife. She gave Third Uncle four sons, and they have been together for more than twenty years. How can Third Uncle bear to divorce her just like that? And what will happen to the family? My two older cousins and two younger cousins will all suffer!”
Mo Beihan sighed and stroked Gu Qingyao’s little head. “Girl, the entire Gu family dotes on you, but they haven’t spoiled you. Any other girl would have thrown her weight around to show her superiority. Or even tried to sow discord between Zhou Ping and your third uncle and third brother, or complain about her so that your third uncle will beat her a few more tis!”
Gu Qingyao laughed and raised her little head. “Don’t I have better things to do? Third Uncle and Third Brother dote on , I can’t possibly hope that they will file for divorce? That would be too nasty of . Even if I want their love, I won’t stoop to fighting Third Aunt for it!
“They’ve been married for more than twenty years. They have been doing fairly well! Although Zhou Ping is not very good at managing the household and likes assisting her parents, the Gu family can still tolerate what she has taken.”
