Chapter 352: Why Doesn’t She Care About Me?

The more Madam Hu spoke, the more excited she became. “Bian Yuanzhi has already put on new clothes. In just a few days, he’s gained weight and his complexion has improved. After eating, a maidservant will wipe his mouth and make sure that his soup isn’t too hot. He can buy whatever he wants. He can even throw away a stick of candied hawthorn just for fun.”
When she said this, even the children beside her came over and swallowed their saliva with sparkling eyes.
“Why would he throw it away? He can give it to me.”
Madam Hu glanced at the child who spoke. “To you? When he was suffering here in the past, did you give him a grain of corn? Dream on.”
Everyone was extremely envious. If they had known that Bian Yuanzhi had such good fortune, they would have treated him better.
One of the families in the crowd was stunned. When they thought of the bag of white rice that had suddenly appeared in their room a few days ago, their hearts pounded.
They were the ones who took Bian Yuanzhi home for a meal when he was about to freeze to death.
In that case, was he thanking them?
However, Old Gu, who was standing at the back of the crowd, became more and more shocked. His eyes lit up as he listened.
His body, which had originally felt weak, suddenly erupted with a huge force. He pushed away the person in front of him and stood in front of Madam Hu in a few steps. She widened her eyes and asked, “Is what you said true? Is what you said true?”
Madam Hu was so shocked that she almost fell off the standing stone.
She barely managed to stabilize herself before she saw Old Gu’s weathered face clearly. She secretly pursed her lips and smiled. “Of course it’s true. Why would I lie to everyone?”
“Then why didn’t she come back? Why didn’t she come home when she had money?”
Madam Hu laughed. “Why do you think? Wasn’t she afraid that your Gu family will cling onto her like blood-sucking insects? Old Gu, don’t tell me you don’t know what kind of life Gu Dajiang’s family used to live? You bullied them in the past. Do you think they will come back and be filial to you? Do you think they’re stupid? Let me tell you, she’s smart. She secretly took Bian Yuanzhi away and didn’t even look at you.”
“But she’s a member of Old Gu’s family. She’s my granddaughter. How can she leave us alone when she’s rich?” Old Gu was so angry that he was panting. The veins on the back of his hand were bulging, as if he could not accept this fact.
The Gu family had already become like this. If Gu Yundong was really rich, why would he need to work so hard? His second and third sons could also go to a good medical center to treat their illnesses. They could also live in a big house with people serving them.
Madam Hu sneered. “You really dare to think about it. Your granddaughter is already married. The rich man is her husband. Why should he care about you?”
“I… What about Gu Dajiang? What about Gu Yunshu? My son and grandson. It would be unfilial of them to ignore me.”
Madam Hu smiled even more happily. “I only saw Gu Dajiang’s wife. As for Gu Dajiang and Gu Yunshu, I didn’t see them. Don’t tell me these two are gone? Think about it, if they were still alive, would Gu Yundong not bring them here? She even brought Madam Yang with her when she went out. I don’t think there’s anyone else in the family who can take care of her.”
When everyone heard this, they all thought that it made sense.
Madam Yang was a fool. It would be so troublesome to bring her out. If Gu Dajiang was around, she would definitely leave her at home for him to take care of.
If Gu Yunshu was around, Gu Yundong might as well bring him along instead of a fool. The daughter must’ve been worried without Madam Yang’s close relatives by her side..
