Rebirth: She is Ready for a Counterattack! Chapter 143 - 142: The Desire to Die (Fourth Update)

Gu Xiaoqing stepped forward and grabbed Mrs. Gu’s hand; Mrs. Gu was a very prosperous elderly lady, life had not treated her poorly, so she had remained plump all these years.

The hand was also fleshy.

Gu Xiaoqing cried loudly, throwing herself onto Mrs. Gu, pressing down right on her nose and mouth.

"Grandma, you can’t have anything happen. If sothing happens to you, what will my Second Uncle and Second Aunt do? Is it possible for my Second Uncle to carry the reputation of forcing his niece to marry a cripple in order to pave the way for Gu Xiaocheng?

The village people’s gossip would drown Gu Xiaocheng, and Second Uncle and Second Aunt wouldn’t be able to live with themselves, not when their spines are broken by people.

Grandma, you can’t have anything happen. I know you’re angry at Second Aunt; it’s not decent for an aunt-in-law to co to the elder brother’s ho to discuss selling a niece, this thing won’t be spoken of without people scolding our old Gu Family.

You’re angry because Second Aunt’s actions are not decent."

At these words, all the villagers who hadn’t yet left stopped, all ears pricked up; there was yet another story here.

Originally, it was thought Mrs. Gu fainted in Gu Ruhai’s ho and that it had sothing to do with Gu Ruhai, but once these words ca out, everyone’s expressions changed. It clearly ant that Gu Rushan and Jiang Xiulan were scheming to marry Gu Xiaoying off to a cripple to clear a path for Gu Xiaocheng.

Surely, Li Xuei disagreed.

What mother would agree to this?

Probably that’s why Mrs. Gu fainted.

The child said nicely that it was Jiang Xiulan and her husband pushing Gu Ruhai and Li Xuei, but anyone with eyes could see that if Mrs. Gu wasn’t involved, it would be strange indeed.

Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu being partial wasn’t sothing new; their love for Gu Xiaocheng was as dear as their own eyes. Exchanging a granddaughter for a grandson’s future was really sothing Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu could do.

No wonder Gu Ruhai had been stamring without saying a word earlier; this disgraceful act, how could anyone ntion it outside?

For one’s own grandparents and Second Uncle and Aunt to force the eldest to sell a niece, how could this ever be said?

Gu Xiaoqing was twelve, looking close to thirteen with her body growing, now having gained so weight, forcefully pressing down on Mrs. Gu’s nose and mouth. Gu Xiaoqing deliberately didn’t let go, using force, pressing Mrs. Gu so she couldn’t breathe.

Gu Rushan thought this was still manageable.

If this charge was firmly established, how would he and Jiang Xiulan live? Gu Xiaocheng’s reputation was nonexistent.

Pointing at Gu Xiaoqing, he cursed, "You wretched girl, how could you speak such nonsense? Clearly, it’s your dad who angered your grandmother into fainting, yet you turn the tables with reckless talk, what does it have to do with Gu Xiaocheng? It was your grandparents who found a match for Gu Xiaoying, how is it related to us."

This was passing the responsibility cleanly.

Mr. Gu coughed, saying, "Xiaoqing, I know you’re worried about your grandma, but you can’t talk like that. Your grandma and I are looking out for your sister; the person is soone who eats governnt als, marrying there ans living a good life. How could your grandma and I harm your sister? She’s our granddaughter too."

These words were ant for everyone to hear.

Sure enough, once spoken, the crowd showed a look of understanding; who wouldn’t hope for their daughter to marry soone who eats governnt als? It’s a stable job, no worries for life.

This kind of good thing indeed can’t be said to be unfair to Gu Xiaoying.

Many instead blad Gu Xiaoqing for not understanding; this kind of thing would be welco in any household.

Gu Xiaoqing saw the crowd’s looks, understood how they thought; everyone believed this was a rare good fortune.

Gu Xiaoqing fiercely pressed Mrs. Gu with her belly; she saw Mrs. Gu’s fingers gripping the bed edge forcefully, but everyone’s eyes were on Mr. Gu’s words, no one saw this scene.

She waited for Mrs. Gu to get up by herself.

If Mrs. Gu’s act wasn’t exposed this ti, her own family would just be talked about and even her father might always be thinking about the grandparents later.

For the sake of future days, Gu Xiaoqing was taking a desperate gamble.

Gu Xiaoqing cried loudly, "Grandpa, I know you’re blinded by Second Uncle and Second Aunt, you don’t know that Feng Quezi isn’t just la, he’s already forty-eight; what is it, you’re finding a family for my sister or looking for a father for her?

My sister is an eighteen-year-old maiden, not lacking in hands or feet, our family isn’t short on money either; my dad prepared five hundred yuan dowry for her. Such a girl, where couldn’t she find soone young and strong with no health problems? Why find a cripple?

Grandpa, Grandma, this is why Grandma fainted upon hearing these things."

Do you think you can turn black into white just because Gu Xiaoqing doesn’t want it?

Gu Ruhai’s face darkened; whatever this child said would co out, and although he was being freed, it left everyone in the village considering his parents.

Wasn’t it just making his parents lose face?

Dragging the whole family down with them in disgrace.

Just as he intended to reproach Gu Xiaoqing.

He saw Gu Xiaoqing suddenly being tossed aside by Mrs. Gu with a push, because Gu Xiaoqing hadn’t been prepared, she hit her head against the bed edge, imdiately cutting her forehead, blood streaming down.

Li Xuei was frightened, pulling Gu Xiaoqing up, she protectively cradled the child.

Mrs. Gu suddenly sat up, breathing heavily, glaring with eyes like brass bells, scolding Gu Xiaoqing, "You scourge, are you trying to suffocate ? You unfilial girl, your parents are unfilial, and you’re also unfilial, just hoping to suffocate , so you’ll be pleased.

This marriage is my agreent, I, as the grandmother, can’t decide this? It’s not related to Second Uncle."

Mrs. Gu had clearly heard the earlier talk and since she couldn’t keep pretending, she had to take responsibility, otherwise, Gu Xiaocheng’s future would be over.

The main issue was that Mrs. Gu couldn’t keep pretending; Gu Xiaoqing’s pressing on her nose and mouth nearly suffocated her and that was real.

Upon those words, the villagers burst out laughing.

If anyone still thought Mrs. Gu was pretending, they’d have to be blind.

Her energy, the ease with which she scolded, where was the sign of frothing at the mouth?

No one was foolish.

Murmurs began buzzing around Mr. Gu.

Mr. Gu felt a severe headache.

The family’s reputation was completely ruined.

Gu Ruhai couldn’t say anything.

Just now, he was remorseful and wished he were dead, thinking he should’ve agreed with Mrs. Gu, then this scene wouldn’t have happened. But his mother was quickly exposed by Gu Xiaoqing.

Gu Ruhai felt the urge to die.(To be continued. If you enjoyed this work, visit Qidian (qidian) to vote for recomndations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian to read.)
