Rebirth: She is Ready for a Counterattack! Chapter 147 - 146: The Father-in-Law’s Instruction (Third Up
"Sit down if you’re told to sit, what’s with all this hesitation from a grown man?"
Li Qinghai lost his temper, unable to stand seeing Gu Ruhai act like a pushover.
Not realizing, that with your stern deanor, who wouldn’t be terrified seeing you like that?
Gu Ruhai got scared and plopped down on the ground.
Gu Xiaoqing chuckled at the side.
Li Qinghai was also amused.
The atmosphere in the yard finally eased, no longer so tense.
Gu Ruhai got up, rubbed his head, blaming himself for being so inept, unable even to please people.
But this ti, he obediently sat on the bench.
"Gu Ruhai, in this matter, Xuei was right. We elders don’t take sides, but in this issue, don’t you realize it would hurt your daughter?
You can’t, you’re already over forty and still need to tell you. Think about it, if it weren’t for your insightful and capable daughter Gu Xiaoqing, you’d be crying for the rest of your life today. If Gu Xiaoqing hadn’t helped you, exposing your mother’s sches, even if you ca today, I would have had Xuei divorce you.
No other reason, just because this ti they held sothing over you, how would Gu Xiaoying have survived in the future? If you marry a vibrant daughter to a la person, wouldn’t you feel guilty, and how would you expect Xuei to live with you?
If in the future Gu Xiaoying’s life is miserable, bullied by her mother-in-law every day, beaten and scolded by a la husband, how wouldn’t your heart ache, and wouldn’t you regret it?
So you really need to thank your clever daughter; she saved your life."
Li Qinghai stubbed out the cigarette butt in his hand.
Gu Ruhai nodded.
"Dad, I know, I understand, it’s Xiaoqing who saved our family this ti."
Even without saying it, Gu Ruhai could think of this.
All adults here, not young guys in their teens or twenties.
Everyone knows to be cautious and considerate.
Li Qinghai continued, "Think about this situation, if they have leverage over you, if it’s for Gu Xiaocheng or next ti for Gu Xiaofeng, and your mother wants to sell Gu Xiaoqing again, will you sell her again?
If you don’t, wouldn’t you still be unfilial? As long as your mother lies on the bed and refuses to get up, who can say she’s faking illness, and as long as sothing isn’t to her liking, she’ll say you angered your mother into illness, what will you do? How can you do anything but comply.
This is only one aspect; if your mother wants you to give her your family’s money, will you give it or not? If not, she says you’re unfilial, not supporting your parents, not paying for her dical care; if you do, will it ever be enough?
The situation in your family, don’t you know that’s a bottomless pit - whatever you have won’t be enough, even selling the pots and pans couldn’t feed the second and third families."
These words made Gu Ruhai sweat coldly; even if he dislikes imagining it, ignoring it wouldn’t change the reality.
This will definitely beco reality if soone had leverage over him last night, it would inevitably be like this.
Thanks to Gu Xiaoqing.
Thinking this way, Gu Ruhai truly felt like he narrowly walked a circle at the gates of hell last night.
No wonder Li Xuei left with the children.
It wouldn’t have been surprising if she hadn’t left.
His thoughts and ideas were driving his family straight into a fire pit!
But when did he start seeing his parents, his brothers as a trap?
Deep down, he knew, but chose not to care.
Still thinking about family ties.
These family ties were going to get him killed.
What made Gu Ruhai truly sad this ti was, clearly, what happened yesterday his parents and his second brother planned it out, they’ve probably thought through every subsequent step.
Otherwise, Jiang Xiulan wouldn’t have yelled so loudly; otherwise, Mr. Gu and Gu Rushan wouldn’t have arrived so quickly, all of this was preditated.
Yet, he still believed he had angered his mother to sickness, as if an idiot.
Without realizing it, over the years, his old mother’s health, surely he knows best. Angering others to sickness might happen, but being angered into illness himself? Unthinkable.
And yet, he had already beco so hot-headed, contemplating selling his daughter; it’s pathetic, they hadn’t even opened their mouths, and he was already on the path to betraying his own daughter.
They say even a fierce tiger doesn’t eat its own cubs.
Did he count as a father?
He’s worse than a beast.
Every ti he thought about compromising, he considered sacrificing his own children.
The eldest daughter is only eighteen, in her pri, has always suffered with them both without schooling, not having enough to eat or wear; the eldest daughter was doing most of the work at ho.
Life had only started to improve slightly; finally he could make up for the kids a bit, and yet he was such a bastard, thinking of ruining such a good daughter.
Could he be at peace with his conscience?
Gu Ruhai truly felt ashad enough to want to bash his head in.
It’s sothing not even a decent human would do.
"Make your position clear, will you continue this path, or not? If not, Xuei can take the three children back ho, our Li Family can take care of them, and we won’t cling on.
If you want to live well, think less of using the children. If you have the ability, Gu Ruhai, you stand your ground, to be filial or to repay debts, those are your burdens, unrelated to the three children."
Li Qinghai made it very clear, they couldn’t not care for the three grandchildren, with the first idea of exploiting the children, you can’t rule out a second ti; his daughter’s life was so hard, finally seeing a bit of ease, they couldn’t let Gu Ruhai destroy it.
Nor let the Gu Family destroy it.
Gu Ruhai bowed his head, was silent for a long ti before he said, "Dad, this ti I really know I’ve gone too far, as a father, so unreliable, who would the children rely on? I will not be such a bastard anymore. Today, I say here, if my brothers or parents cause trouble again, plot again, I will bear it alone, never hurting the children, never letting the children and Xuei suffer again.
If I can’t do it, next ti, Xuei should take the kids and not stay with , and I would leave with nothing, not even a cent, making sure the children and Xuei don’t suffer again."
These were the deepest assurances Gu Ruhai could make.
Li Qinghai smiled, now this was the deanor of a man.
"Go check on your wife and kids. This entire night hasn’t been easy for them either." (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, you’re welco to recomnd or vote monthly on Qidian (qidian). Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read on m.qidian.)
