Chapter 685: Chapter 685 Unexpected Chapter 685: Chapter 685 Unexpected Gu Changshun had long ceased to desire Wan Ruyan, but now, Wan Ruyan had burned down their Gu Family house and stolen their belongings.
To simply divorce Wan Ruyan in this manner, wouldn’t that be letting her off too lightly?
“Mother, listen to , we cannot divorce that wretched Wan Ruyan just yet!” As he spoke of Wan Ruyan, Gu Changshun also clenched his teeth in anger.
If he had known earlier, he would have never ssed with that mad and cheap woman Wan Ruyan. He gained nothing from the entanglent with her, only a stench of scandal.
Mrs. Zhang, already driven to irrational fury by Wan Ruyan, exploded with rage when Gu Changshun said they couldn’t divorce Wan Ruyan yet.
“What? Are you still enchanted by that woman? Even now, you don’t want to divorce that wretched girl?” Mrs. Zhang had never agreed to let her son marry Wan Ruyan in the first place; it was only because Gu Changshun whispered in her ear that she had reluctantly let Wan Ruyan enter the Gu Family’s doors.
And now what?
They had brought back such a disastrous creature.
What bad luck!
Gu Changshun hurried to explain, “Mother, Mother, hear out. Wan Ruyan has now burned down our house. If we simply divorce her now, wouldn’t that be letting her off too easily?”
Mrs. Zhang was completely befuddled by fury toward Wan Ruyan, but upon hearing Gu Changshun’s words, her tone softened considerably; indeed, if they divorced Wan Ruyan just like that,
it would be letting that cheap woman off far too easily.
“Mother, what I an is, we can’t let Wan Ruyan off easily. She has made our family’s life miserable; we should make sure her Wan Family suffers just as much.”
Mrs. Zhang seed to suddenly understand, her face twisting into a vicious expression, “Yes, Son, you’re right. We must make the Wan Family suffer as well.”
With the Gu Family house burned down, Mrs. Zhang was unwilling to spend money to repair it, so she, along with her son and husband, made a scene at the Wan Family house, demanding reparations for the house Wan Ruyan had burned.
It was only right that Wan Ruyan’s family should pay.
Su Yunjin was brewing wine in the town and hadn’t heard about the incident at the Gu Family village until Mrs. Chu, her fifth sister-in-law, ca to tell her.
Only then did Su Yunjin hear about what had happened in the Gu Family village. As soon as Mrs. Chu saw Su Yunjin, she began to denounce Gu Hengniang, “Third Sister-in-law, the Second Sister has gone too far this ti. She actually suggested in front of our parents that Third Brother should take in Wan Ruyan, proposing you and Wan Ruyan take turns, one as the wife and the other as the concubine!”
What?
Gu Hengniang actually had the audacity to utter such a suggestion?
Su Yunjin was stunned and speechless.
Back when Wan Ruyan had not yet married Gu Changshun, Gu Hengniang had taken Wan Ruyan to seduce Gu Ya, and even then, it wasn’t as shocking as it was now.
Now, Wan Ruyan was indeed the wife of Gu Ya’s nephew, also his niece-in-law; Gu Ya, as the uncle, was an elder relative to both Wan Ruyan and Gu Changshun.
Was Gu Hengniang really so absurd as to want Gu Ya to marry his own niece-in-law?
“Third Sister-in-law, don’t tell you didn’t know about this?” Mrs. Chu thought Su Yunjin was aware of the ordeal, but observing the expression on Su Yunjin’s face,
it seed like she had only just found out!
Su Yunjin indeed didn’t know about it; Gu Ya hadn’t ntioned it to her, and since she wasn’t in the Gu Family village, she suddenly rembered the terribly dark expression on Gu Ya’s face after Gu Hengniang had left last ti.
At that mont, she had asked Gu Ya what was the matter.
Gu Ya didn’t tell her.
Now, it appeared that the dark expression was likely due to Gu Hengniang suggesting that Gu Ya marry Wan Ruyan.
