Chapter 687: 686. Is it useful or not [Two Chapters in One]_2
Wait a minute! He realized sothing was wrong—
No, that’s not right!
Guo Dong had never hidden the troubleso family affairs from them. And why did the aunt bring three burly n with her if not to intimidate? What was she doing here?
Guo Dong’s expression was anything but pleasant.
She hadn’t expected that even after blocking and blacklisting everyone, her mother could still find her here.
Looking at the uncle and her two male cousins who had co with her mother, she managed a forced smile:
“Mom, how did you get here?”
…
Seeing Guo Dong, the aunt had already forgotten the oppressive air of the underworld boss, and now she threw herself forward, tears streaming down her face:
“You still have the nerve to call
mom! What on earth have you done?! Dong Dong, who corrupted you? If I had known it would co to this, I should have listened to your uncle and the others. What’s the use of reading so many books if you can’t even be filial…”
“Give
a break!”
Guo Dong rolled her eyes, “I’ve been studying and you’ve been matching
with gamblers and dwarfs. If I hadn’t studied, would I have to get married off at 16 to so widower or disabled person?”
“How can you say that?”
Guo Dong’s mom cried uncontrollably beside her, “Am I your enemy? I just want you to settle down and have a ho!”
“It’s been so many years; you’re over 30 and still haven’t found anyone. How can I hold my head up in the village? Do you know how hard life has been?”
“Besides, you’re the one who kept dragging this out until it was too late. All the good n have been snapped up by others. Now that so don’t mind your age, why are you still so defiant? With such a fiery temper, do you know how much effort I’ve made to find you a match?”
She said, choking up deeply:
“And look at you, now you’re lying and deceiving people too. Saying you’re going out to buy clothes, then disappearing into thin air… If it wasn’t for soone who ca to get dicine from our ho telling
you were here, I’d die of sha and couldn’t face your father…”
Zhang Yanping was startled by the severity of her words!
Listening to the things Guo Dong’s mom was saying, and rembering how Guo Dong fainted from low blood sugar upon their first eting…
Zhang Yanping shook his head in dismay and sent Guo Dong a flurry of ssages:
[Doctor Xiaoguo, with a living environnt like yours, even dogs would shake their heads!]
He wore his emotions on his face, and even though Guo Dong felt powerless and numb, she couldn’t help almost laughing out loud when she saw the ssage and his expression. She barely managed to keep her composure.
She straightened her face and fixed her gaze on the middle-aged man, “What’s the deal? Uncle, did you co with my mom to drag
back ho?”
“Go ahead and drag
away! My dad’s only got one child. If you dare to force
into marriage, you should know, these days dical students who stab soone 27 tis can get away without a conviction. Haven’t you seen the news? Guess what I studied in college?”
Having left her old ho and the seemingly affectionate yet alienating environnt, Guo Dong wasn’t the sa helpless girl she used to be. She was far bolder now, and even her speech carried a sarcastic bite.
“You! You!”
Uncle Guo was clearly taken aback, “Dong Dong, I’ve watched you grow up since you were little. With our relationship, do you think your mom and I would harm you? All won have to get married. What’s the point in being so stubborn and holding a grudge against us? Wait till you’re 40, and even if you wanted to marry then, no one would want you!”
Zhang Yanping: …
Damn! The Qing Dynasty has been gone for a hundred years, and yet so people’s minds are still riddled with such outdated nonsense?
He was getting impatient.
It all boiled down to one core belief—
[Won who can’t get married are failures for life.]
Debating with these people was a luxury in itself.
He simply continued to ssage:
[Enough beating around the bush; what kind of person is your mom, really? Does she have any weaknesses?]
[I look fierce, so I should be able to scare her with so harsh words, right?]
Seeing the sign Zhang Yanping was giving her, Guo Dong also took out her phone and replied succinctly:
[My mom is sotis timid, but when it cos to my marriage, she’s very persistent.]
[She’s… quite complex. In short, when it cos to her views on marriage, she’s a traditional, feudal woman.]
Traditional, feudal?!
Zhang Yanping couldn’t help but laugh!
It was a far cry from Old Madam Zhou’s level—after all, she was the fierce one who would strip off her clothes directly!
With a scholar facing a soldier, Zhang Yanping wasn’t sure he could handle it.
But now…
[So if I use so unpleasant tactics, you don’t mind, right?]
Guo Dong decisively replied: [Go for it with confidence!]
Zhang Yanping: … Alright then!
