In the beginning, I kicked my step-brother to waste, and took a few acres of land to the countryside

Liu Xiaolian didn't expect that Mother Gu's attitude would be like this. It was completely different from what she had imagined when she came here!

Besides, Mother Gu's attitude towards her is not like this usually. What happened today?

Could it be that you had a quarrel with Gu Yanting?

Then she can’t say those words about her mother anymore!

After all, there are no bad parents in the world. It would be bad if she said something about her mother and couldn't care about her mother's impression of her!

When Liu Xiaolian reached the words on her lips, she swallowed them, but she had not yet thought about what to say next.

There was no other way, Liu Xiaolian could only explain while sobbing:

"Aunt Gu, I didn't think much about it, just..."

Speaking of this, Liu Xiaolian pretended to be unable to speak, turned her face slightly, lowered her head to reveal the beaten cheek and the torn cotton jacket, looking very pitiful.

Normally, as long as Liu Xiaolian was like this, Gu's mother would definitely comfort her with a distressed look on her face!

Liu Xiaolian pursed her lips, waiting for Mother Gu's comfort!

But Mother Gu was extra calm today. No matter how pitiful other people's children were, it was only because of their parents. It had nothing to do with her, let alone her son.

Normally, it’s okay to lend a hand to help, but when it comes to her son, Gu’s mother is quite sober and can handle things clearly. Gu’s mother looked at Liu Xiaolian deeply and said:

"That's it. I'll talk to your mother later and ask her not to be too harsh on you. I have something to do at home today. Xiaolian, you should go back first!"

Liu Xiaolian raised her head in shock and said in disbelief:

"Aunt Gu, I, I, can I..."

Mother Gu said displeasedly:

"Xiao Lian, do you have anything else to do? You still don't dare to go home. If it doesn't work, I'll call the street where you live and ask them to help you make peace with your mother!"

Now Liu Xiaolian saw the expression on Gu's mother's face clearly and knew that she was annoyed with her.

Liu Xiaolian thought for a long time, but couldn't find what was wrong with her. Is it because the Chinese New Year is approaching and the Gu family cares about this?

Knowing that she would not get a good deal this year, Liu Xiaolian gritted her teeth and was about to leave when she heard a deep young male voice:

"Mom, what time should we set off? I'll say hello to Uncle Li and pick us up!"

Liu Xiaolian was thin and had her head lowered, so Gu Yanting didn't notice her.

When Liu Xiaolian heard this voice, her eyes lit up, she immediately wiped her face and said:

"Brother Gu is back. I don't like it yet. It's really embarrassing to come here to take care of Brother Gu empty-handed!"

Hearing this, Gu Yanting frowned slightly. He was not sick or injured. What did he bring?

And he didn’t even know this girl, so why did she come to see him?

Gu Yanting glanced at Gu's mother, his eyes indicating to Gu's mother who this was!

Liu Xiaolian also looked at Gu's mother expectantly, hoping that Gu's mother would formally introduce herself and Gu Yanting.

Mother Gu glared at Gu Yanting, and instead of introducing the two people, she changed the subject and said:

"You go ahead and call to arrange the car. I have something else to do. We'll leave when the car arrives. Your grandpa is waiting over there!"

Gu Yanting originally wanted to say hello out of politeness. Since Gu's mother didn't want him to say hello, he was happy and said yes and went to call to arrange a car!

When Liu Xiaolian saw that Gu's mother did not introduce herself and Gu Yanting, her face became visibly bad.

She knew that Mother Gu's usual care and kindness to her were all an illusion, and she still looked down on her in her heart!

But it doesn't matter if she looks down on her, she just wants to marry Gu Yanting, marry into the Gu family, and make everyone look up to her.

So even if Mother Gu gave such an obvious eviction order, Liu Xiaolian had no intention of leaving.

He just stood there pretending to be uneasy, thinking that when Gu Yanting came out, he would see her. Maybe when Gu Yanting sympathized with her, they would have a connection.

The Gu family lives not far from Mr. Gu. If it weren't for the few boxes of things Lin Manman sent, there would be no need for the old man's delivery car to come over.

So, within ten minutes after Gu Yanting finished making the call, Lao Li drove over.

Along with Lao Li, there was another Zhang Yueying who came uninvited.

Zhang Yueying's family always pays attention to the developments of the Gu family, so they already knew about Gu Yanting's return last night.

Thinking that Gu Yanting would definitely look after Mr. Gu when he came back, Zhang Yueying went to Mr. Gu's place early this morning!

No, when she heard that she was going to pick up Gu Yanting from Gu's house, Zhang Yueying made a fuss and came by car too!

As soon as Zhang Yueying entered Gu's house, she said very familiarly:

"Aunt Gu, I just heard that Brother Yan Ting is back, so I came here quickly? I haven't seen Brother Yan Ting in several years!"

Mother Gu was urging Liu Xiaolian on the left and urging Liu Xiaolian on the right. Liu Xiaolian acted as if she didn't understand and just wouldn't leave. She was already very annoyed!

Who would have thought that instead of sending this one off, they would convene another one. Mother Gu pinched her eyebrows and said:

"Yue Ying is here. Chinese New Year is coming soon. Aren't you busy at home?"

Zhang Yueying didn't expect that Gu's mother would say this, and she didn't know how to continue. Fortunately, the Gu family had not been enthusiastic about her in the past few years, and she had gotten used to it. Zhang Yueying explained with a smile:

"My house is fine. My two sisters-in-law are both at home and busy with work. I was afraid that grandpa might have something to do, so I went to grandpa's house early in the morning!"

What does Grandpa Gu need to do? His family has Sister-in-law Li who takes care of daily life. She and the driver, Lao Li, are a couple. They take care of Grandpa Gu very considerately!

But Zhang Yueying was a girl after all, and Mother Gu didn't like her very much, and she didn't like her, so she just said:

"That's good. If you have anything to do, just go home and help. The old man has nothing to worry about!"

Zhang Yueying did not accept the words and just said coquettishly:

"I know grandpa needs nothing, but isn't it because brother Yan Ting and the others are always away from home? If I go to spend more time with grandpa, I will treat it as fulfilling my filial piety for brother Yan Ting!"

This is as close as saying that she and Gu Yanting are members of the same family!

Gu's mother couldn't quarrel with her yet, and she didn't have any filial piety as Gu Yanting's girlfriend. If she quarreled with her, she would expose the matter!

Don't think that the Zhang family will stop thinking about it if she reveals it!

In order to get ahold of Gu Yanting, the Zhang family used all kinds of shameless methods!

Gu's mother just wanted to change the topic, don't let her talk about Brother Yanting, as if something happened.

I heard Zhang Yueying frowning and looking at Liu Xiaolian and saying:

"Liu Xiaolian, why are you here? It's Chinese New Year. If you weren't helping your mother line up to grab groceries, what were you doing at Aunt Gu's house?"

"Oh, you are still dressed like a beggar. You don't know how to dress decently when visiting other people's homes. I forgot, you have only been in elementary school for two years. You don't know what decent means!"

"What I mean is that when you go to other people's houses, at least you can't wear clothes with cotton leaking everywhere. Why is your cotton so black? How dirty it is!"
