Chapter 948: Chapter 948: You Can’t Afford to Make Trouble in This House Chapter 948: Chapter 948: You Can’t Afford to Make Trouble in This House Gu Qianru stood up and went to the kitchen to steam egg custard for the two little ones. She didn’t want to get involved with Gu Junfeng’s parenting, not knowing who Gu Ziyi had taken after. Her thoughts were really unclear.
Seeing everyone leave, Gu Ziyi felt a bit scared that her father might get angry over this. Just now, she had acted impulsively too, forgetting about that woman’s Yipin Base, and she also beca angry with herself.
Gu Qihao signaled to the family with his eyes, and they all left the courtyard and returned to their own rooms.
Gu Junfeng walked forward a few steps and slapped Gu Ziyi across the face, “Why would you do such a thing?”
Gu Ziyi, stunned, looked at her father and covered her slapped face: “You hit ?”
Gu Junfeng said coldly, “I don’t know what you are thinking. You heard what your grandfather said the other day, right? Are you trying to trap in being disloyal and unfilial?”
Gu Ziyi shook her head vigorously: “No, I didn’t, I didn’t. I just saw her changing clothes too often and wanted her to be more frugal.”
Gu Junfeng scoffed, “Frugal? You really know how to find an excuse. Do you know how many impoverished students your second cousin-in-law sponsors a year, or how many schools she funded last year? And you dare preach to her?”
Gu Ziyi’s eyes widened in disbelief: “How is that possible?”
Gu Junfeng said coldly, “If you cause any more trouble, you’ll never have to return to the Capital again. My grandfather took in, raised , paid for my education, and made a capable person. I haven’t repaid him one bit and can’t let you create chaos in this ho.”
Qiao Wenhui also looked at her daughter with frustration: “Ziyi, I’m not blaming you, but as a girl, how can you be so indiscreet? We only return to the Capital once in a long while, and every ti, you find displeasure. Are you trying to anger your father to death?”
Gu Ziyi, seeing both her parents blaming her, spoke out: “All you do is criticize . I just wanted to get closer to her, but she wasn’t willing to pay any attention. That’s why I spoke without thinking. What kind of good person is she, openly confronting without considering your dignity.”
From outside, Old Master Gu spoke loudly, “If you think so lowly of my granddaughter-in-law, then leave at once and don’t ever co back.”
The family of three in the living room was stunned, their minds spinning with just two words: “It’s over.”
Gu Junfeng hurried outside and saw Old Master Gu standing there: “Dad, listen to , it’s not what you think.”
Old Gu looked at his adopted son, “Junfeng, I raised you without expecting anything in return, but now that I am old, I just want peace at ho. Since Ziyi feels so suffocated here, she need not co back anymore.”
Upon hearing this, Qiao Wenhui beca anxious, “Dad, she’s still young, please don’t hold it against her.”
Old Master Gu laughed suddenly at her words and shook his head, “With those few words from you, she will never grow up. That’s not how you raise a child. If there’s nothing else, you better not co back to the Capital.”
After saying this, Old Master Gu turned and left.
Qiao Wenhui was baffled, not understanding how her saying a few words ended up making Old Master Gu even more upset.
Gu Junfeng stood there for a long ti without moving; Gu Ziyi ca out and said, “After all, Dad, you are just an adopted son. How can you compare with soone’s own grandson?”
This remark instantly enraged Gu Junfeng. He dragged her back to their house, shut the door, and began to beat her, causing Gu Ziyi to genuinely beco scared: “Dad, I won’t dare again, please, I won’t ever dare again. Stop hitting .”
Having finally let out his pent-up frustrations, he warned, “If I ever hear such ill-bred words from your mouth again, I will disown you publicly. I was only ever raised by your grandfather. What do I have to compete for?”

The two children hadn’t slept but were unusually energetic; the couple sat there playing with building blocks. Just then, Qiao Wenhui’s voice ca from outside: “Qiaoqiao, have the little ones slept?”
Luo Qiao quickly stood up: “Aunt, co in. They aren’t asleep.”
“I stead so egg custard. Let them eat a bit less; lunch will be ready soon. Auntie Tang made vegetable atballs for them, very tender and perfect mixed with rice.”
