Chapter 27 I don't believe the black-hearted stepmother has been cleansed
"Mom, look, isn't that Third Brother?"
Gu Taohua spotted Gu Jingzhe flashing through the crowd.
Tong Huaqiong naturally also discovered this cheap little son.
This youngest son has been raising money outside these days, and I don’t know how he is doing.
But Tong Huaqiong was not worried at all.
A talented young man like Gu Jingzhe will only believe that there will always be a way out when the car reaches the mountain. He will not give up easily, and will not easily destroy himself.
"Don't bother with him, he's such a disloyal and unfilial guy." Tong Huaqiong said angrily.
It’s still comfortable to ride in a car!
Even a bullock cart!
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one else on the bus, Tong Huaqiong and Gu Taohua stretched their legs comfortably.
When Uncle Xu looked over, the corners of his mouth twitched.
He was thinking in his mind that with Gu Taohua's size, she would take up three seats. How would he ask Widow Tong for an extra person's fare later?
Uncle Xu glanced around and smiled bitterly. The other people in the village were about to take the bus back to the village. What if they saw the black-hearted widow on the bus and she was unwilling to take his bus?
"Old Xu, this bun is for you."
When Tong Huaqiong saw Uncle Xu's expression, she guessed what he was thinking. She was also worried that she and Gu Taohua, mother and daughter, would affect Uncle Xu's business.
She would have to ride in Uncle Xu's car to go back and forth to the town in the future. She wouldn't be taken over by bandits every time they came into the village.
In order to be able to ride in Uncle Xu's car smoothly in the future, she must establish a good relationship with Uncle Xu.
Has this widow changed her personality today?
Uncle Xu was like he had seen a ghost and didn't dare to take the bun. He was worried that Widow Tong would set a trap for him.
"Old Xu, I know what you are worried about. How about this, I'll give you the fare first. My son Taohua is fat, and I'll give you the fare for four people." Tong Huaqiong said as he untied his purse, counted out the fare for four people on the spot and handed it to Uncle Xu.
Uncle Xu didn't dare to accept the call at first, but the fare was so tempting that he took it after a little thought.
"Sister Tong, I'm really sorry... Even though you paid for four people, I'm worried that no one will take my car in a while." Uncle Xu muttered.
Tong Huaqiong smiled and said nothing.
She would never compensate Uncle Xu for the vacant seat, right? She is treating me as a sucker!
Tong Huaqiong can reason, but she has no intention of whitewashing Tong Dajiao's vicious personality.
As a widow, her life was already difficult, and she also had to run a business. It was not possible for her to transform herself into the image of a little white flower.
"No one rides in your car. That's because other people are blind. It can't be blamed on me and my mother." Gu Taohua was unhappy with Uncle Xu's attitude and confronted him directly in the face.
You want them to pay for the empty car fee, what are you thinking?
Tong Huaqiong just felt that the fat girl was right!
As expected, Uncle Xu didn't dare to say anything more under Gu Taohua's unfriendly look.
"Brother Xu, I'm not an unreasonable person. I will ride in your car in the future. As long as Taohua is here, I will pay the extra fare for two people." Tong Huaqiong continued to hand the meat buns to Uncle Xu.
Uncle Xu couldn't resist Widow Tong's enthusiasm and took the buns.
The people of Qinghewan in the town came to Uncle Xu's ox cart one after another. When they saw Tong Huaqiong and Gu Taohua sitting on the cart, they showed disgust and hesitation on their faces.
Tong Huaqiong pretended not to see it and said jokingly: "Why don't you get in the car? There is a tiger on the car."
Everyone felt embarrassed after hearing this. They had no choice but to get on the bus, and then they all kept a distance from Tong Huaqiong and Gu Taohua, as if they were not familiar with the two of them.
Tong Huaqiong said it didn't matter and she didn't want to build relationships with everyone.
Soon the ox cart was full, and Uncle Xu drove the cart towards Qinghe Bay.
After leaving Yanguan Town, we met a carriage on the narrow road and an old woman stuck her head out.
Tong Huaqiong recognized that the old woman was the old woman who almost took away her mung bean cake sample.
"Madam, look, aren't those your black-hearted stepmother and sister?" After the ox cart went away, Mrs. Fei said to Gu Baishuang.
Gu Baishuang naturally saw it as well!
Gu Baishuang's heart was filled with complicated feelings, and the words of her sister-in-law Chen Sufen echoed in her ears.
She rushed to the Gu family during the day, wanting to drag the clan leader to seek justice for Maner. When she got off the carriage, she saw Maner and Chen Sufen, mother and daughter, watering vegetables in the yard.
Didn’t they say that Man’er was sent to the Zheng family? How come she is at home now?
Chen Sufen hadn't seen her elder sister-in-law for a long time, and she couldn't help but be happy to see her elder sister-in-law coming to her house.
Under Gu Baishuang's questioning, Chen Sufen told the whole story.
"…After waking up, my mother-in-law really changed. She no longer treated me harshly. In order to prevent Man'er from going to the Zheng family, she beat up my second brother, my brother-in-law, and my sister-in-law, and even broke the firewood stick."
"I can tell what's true and what's false. He's really nice to me and Man'er. He also said that next time when Dahan comes home, he won't let him go out."
"Not only that, he has become more capable, selling steamed buns and cakes to make money. He has been running around these days."
When Gu Baishuang heard what Chen Sufen said, her expression was as if she had been struck by lightning.
It's incredible.
You told her that she would rather believe that her dead father has resurrected than believe that her evil stepmother has been cleansed!
Chen Sufen looked at her elder sister-in-law with a questioning look on her face and said, "Sister, if you don't believe me, ask Man'er. Children won't lie to you, right?"
Man'er smiled aside and nodded desperately and said, "My aunt, my breasts have really improved, they have become painful. They are not allowed to work, but give them eggs to Man'er. Now when Yaozu bullies me again, the breasts beat Yaozu at me."
This plot development makes Gu Baishuang helpless.
"Aunt, little cousin, you don't have to be afraid. You don't have to cover up for this vicious woman. Mother and I are here to support you." Nie Xiaofeng was young and hot-tempered. He originally came here with the intention of destroying the Gu family. How could he continue to act if his cheap grandmother cleaned up his name?
"Xiaofeng, look at what you said. What vicious woman? That's your grandma. Maner and I didn't lie. Your grandma has really become a better person." Chen Sufen looked at Nie Xiaofeng with dissatisfaction.
Gu Baishuang wanted to stroke her forehead and sigh. This sister-in-law is so kind. Even if Tong Dajiao has changed, it has only been a few days. There is no need for you to protect her.
However, since the vicious old woman has changed and is able to treat her brother's wife and niece well and allow her brother Gu Dahan to return home, there is no need for her to ask the clan leader for justice.
"How was the Zheng family's issue resolved?" Gu Baishuang was very curious.
So Chen Sufen told Gu Baishuang everything about how Tong Huaqiong went to the Zheng family and now owed the Zheng family fifty taels of silver. If she couldn't pay it back one day, Gu Yaozu would be sent to work like a slave and might even have no descendants.
"You deserve it!" Gu Baishuang spat.
No wonder Gu Dashu went to her to apologize, it turned out he wanted her to pay.
"Big sister, logically I shouldn't say that. Yaozu always bullied Maner before, and I didn't like him. But he is only four and a half years old after all, still a baby. Aren't children also taught by adults? Now that I have the pressure of mother-in-law, the second branch has a little more respect for me. I really can't bear to see Yaozu being ruined."
Chen Sufen interceded for the second wife.
"Why didn't they think about ruining Man'er when they wanted to send her away?" Gu Baishuang said indignantly.
"I've experienced the pain of sending Man'er away, so I don't want Yaozu to be sent away." Chen Sufen said.
When facing the Saint Chen Sufen, Gu Baishuang completely lost her temper.
They are all stepmothers. How lucky is it that the black-hearted stepmother has met such a pure and kind daughter-in-law.
Thinking about her stepson and his wife, Gu Baishuang just felt bad.
"Forget it, for the sake of you and Dahan, I will lend the second wife fifty taels of silver."
Gu Baishuang handed a bag of silver to Chen Sufen. When Chen Sufen took it, Gu Baishuang made a request.
"Don't give the silver to Gu Dashu, give it to Tong Dajiao yourself. I won't ask you to return the silver to me. I only have one request, that my mother's tablet be placed next to my father's tablet."
