Gu Yundong looked at Zhou Ping so coldly that she began to quiver. “You don’t need to concern yourself with this matter. We will deal with it. Remember, stop giving lousy suggestions or it will not be a matter of a few slaps.
“Zhou Ping, let me be clear with you today. The Gu family is governed very strictly. We are flexible with everything else, and I can forgive any other mistake, but the Gu family will never tolerate a breach of principle.
“If you dare to deviously plot against others for your own benefit, I will not only divorce you, I will make sure your Zhou family pays the price.
“Don’t forget that I arranged jobs for your brothers and nephews. That bastard Zhang Qiang has only taken a fancy to Yao Yao because she’s pretty. Yao Yao may be pretty, but your niece in the Zhou family is not bad looking either!”
Zhou Ping’s eyes immediately widened. She lost her temper and rushed forward to hit Gu Yundong.
“Gu Yundong, you bastard, I’ve been with you for so many years and borne you four sons. Is this how you treat me? Are you human…”
Gu Yundong ignored her flailing and simply pushed her aside. Zhou Ping fell onto the bed. She looked at Gu Yundong in disbelief, as if this was the first time she was truly seeing her husband after so many years.
Gu Yundong gave Zhou Ping a chilly smile. “If you just mind your own business, I won’t do anything to you. I will even take care of your family. But Zhou Ping, don’t go making trouble for yourself. These four children are yours. If you’re not careful, the children will be disappointed in you.
“I am disciplining you for your own good. Stop thinking these petty thoughts. There is still a place for you in the Gu family, otherwise… ah! I am a man of my word.”
Zhou Ping was so frightened she began to shake all over. Her eyes were dull and she could not speak.
“And you, you should be in bed. I will deal with your mother. We must give further thought to this matter concerning the Zhang family,” Gu Yundong said to Gu Jinlin. “Also, starting from today, you are not to give a cent of your salary to your mother. As parents, it is our duty to raise our children. You have worked hard for so many years. In the future, you are to save your salary for your marriage.”
Gu Jinlin was completely shocked. “Father…”
“Do as I say!”
“All right!”
Zhou Ping immediately leapt to her feet. “You can’t do that. Our household expenses… ah…”
She had only just jumped up when Gu Yundong pushed her back onto the bed. “Jinlin and I usually eat at our work canteen, so our expenses are minimal. My salary is sufficient to support you and the two children.
“Don’t tell me how great the expenditure of raising these two children is. No matter how many children we have, they are our responsibility. If you think you don’t have enough spending money, you can go to work and earn some. Little Seven and Little Eight are older now and don’t need you to take care of them all day. Since Yao Yao is here now, she can take care of them during the day while you go to work.”
Zhou Ping was completely shocked!
Go to work?
Ever since she and Gu Yundong had gotten married, she had always spent Gu Yundong’s money. Later on, her eldest son had grown up, and she had spent her husband and her son’s money. How kind of job could a middle-aged woman like her find?
…
Gu Qingyao heard the entire conversation.
Although she remained in her room, she opened the room door slightly so that she could hear their conversation.
She had her interspace, which contained the medicinal spring that she had developed in her last life after gathering many rare and exotic herbs. The Gu family and Mo family had used their connections in order to obtain these for her.
After drinking from the medicinal spring for a long time, her eyes were keen and her ears were sharp. Although the other room door was shut, in these times, rooms were not very soundproofed, and she heard everything clearly.
