Rebirth: Divine Doctor, Sweet Wife Chapter 288 - Wang Guozhu Gets A Divorce (9)

Chapter 288: w.a.n.g Guozhu Gets A Divorce (9)

It was true. More than ten years ago, they had not agreed to the marriage between Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Yunshen.

The Gu family used to be a wealthy family, but they had fallen on hard times. However, they retained their learning and culture, which had been carefully cultivated in them since young.

Zhang Xiaohui’s family were all wastrels. They were greedy and lazy and had no virtues to speak of. Why would the Gu family agree to a marriage with a family like that?

But they had no choice. In these times, the Gu family was as lowly as dirt. Zhang Xiaohui had set her sights on them and if they continued to refuse, they would certainly get into trouble.

No one cared about giving the Gu family justice. The Gu family had no choice but to go along with whatever happened, for good or ill.

If Gu Yunshen had not been concerned for his parents’ safety, he would also have refused to marry Zhang Xiaohui.

So what if he found out that Zhang Xiaohui had been having an affair with w.a.n.g Guozhu? Did they have proof? Zhang Xiaohui was indeed pregnant, but if the matter blew up and the Zhang Family pressed Zhang Xiaohui, she would destroy the Gu family. Then what would they do?

In these times, it was best for the Gu family if everyone forgot about them. They could not afford to offend someone like her!

Gu Yunshuang’s expression hardened. “No matter what, you must come back with me first. When we get home, we will think of a solution with your father. All right?”

Gu Qingyao shook her head. “Younger Aunt, I have my own methods. You go home first!”

After a lengthy discussion, Gu Yunshuang was still unable to persuade Gu Qingyao to return with her. Gu Yunshuang now had a new understanding of this young girl.

Gu Yunshuang only knew what Gu Qingyao was like a few years ago. The girl had been obedient, mature, and very lovable. The entire family treasured her, but had not spoilt her.

The Gu family came from a poor background. The girl had obediently stayed at home to do the ch.o.r.es. Gu Yunshen had doted on her and could not bear to allow her to work in the fields. She had always done the odd jobs at home.

Now, panic shot through Gu Yunshuang as she looked at Gu Qingyao’s dark and steadfast eyes. It was as this girl had suddenly matured so much that Gu Yunshuang was no match for her.

She was just a teenager. But when they were at the Li house, she had decisively manipulated the Li family into divorcing her and had brought her home.

Divorce was a serious matter…

Gu Qingyao left. Gu Yunshuang and Gu Fangting stood there for a long time, watching her disappearing figure.

“Mother…”

Gu Fangting tugged at Gu Yunshuang’s sleeve. “Elder Cousin… seems very formidable!”

Gu Yunshuang lowered her head to look at her daughter. “Do you think so too?”

Gu Fangting nodded.

Gu Yunshuang did not say anything. She did not know what to say. She and Gu Fangting had not gone far, so now they retraced their steps back to the road leading home.

And waited for Gu Qingyao’s return.

Gu Qingyao headed straight for the w.a.n.g house. She must find Zhou Hong. She could not allow this woman to continue to resist.

Gu Qingyao had thought that Zhou Hong would not go too far, and would not make a fuss for too long. She would allow w.a.n.g Guozhu to reach his limit, then divorce him.

But now w.a.n.g Guozhu was panicking, and she still had not relented. This had become a problem.

At that moment, Zhou Hong was indeed outside. She was following w.a.n.g Guozhu.

In the beginning, she had been more than willing to divorce w.a.n.g Guozhu. She felt that she had found a better home and a better man, so she did not want w.a.n.g Guozhu anymore. She was willing to leave.

But now she knew that w.a.n.g Guozhu had betrayed her with another woman, and even gotten her pregnant. He was just waiting to divorce her before he married that woman. The more Zhou Hong thought about it, the more resentful she felt.
