Chapter 211 Gu Baoxia: Money is All That Matters
Chapter 211 Gu Baoxia: Money is All That Matters
"The Gu family is fighting! Come and see!"
"Gu Baoxia got into a fight with her sister-in-law and nephew!!"
A voice filled with surprise, curiosity, and gossip rang out.
The village women, children, those who wanted to watch the play, and those who wanted to join in the fun all put down what they were doing and rushed to the Gu family's house.
Lu Yuanqing sat in his own recliner. The door opened, and upon hearing the sounds outside, a smile appeared on his lips!
Lu Yuanbo had just returned from his private plot with some vegetables for dinner when he was almost knocked over by his three hurried children as soon as he stepped through the door!
"Hey, why are you running so fast!"
The three children rushed out, their voices echoing in the air, "Let's go see the fun!"
Lu Yuanbo paused.
He heard it on his way back!
But this was the first time he didn't want to go and watch the excitement.
He went there to be the center of attention.
Lu Yuanqing leisurely swayed in his recliner, and no one could tell he was in a good mood!
Lu Yuanbo blinked, something flashing through his mind. He wanted to ask, but what came out was, "Where's Xiao Dong?"
Lu Yuanqing smiled and said, "They ran off to watch the excitement long ago!"
Lu Yuanqing sighed, put down the basket, walked over to Lu Yuanqing's side, squatted down, and said, "Brother, are you really not going to marry Sister Baoxia?"
They've been engaged for so many years, and I've been urging them every year, but they never agree.
Well! Now because of him, these two are no longer a possibility!
His sins are grave!
Lu Yuanqing patted his dog's head and said in a serious tone, "The Gu family dared to bully you, which crossed my bottom line. So, Gu Baoxia can forget about entering my family. Our Lu family will never be related to the Gu family by marriage!"
fart!
This was because he bribed Gu Baoxia! Gu Baoxia didn't want to marry him in the first place.
Now it's perfect; we can get the engagement dissolved as we wish, and then shift the blame onto the Lu family.
Lu Yuanqing took the opportunity to bribe Gu Baoxia, preparing her to use this opportunity to cause a scene at the Gu family and vent Lu Yuanbo's anger!
It's perfectly reasonable and aboveboard; if we don't vent our anger properly, we'll be wasting this opportunity!
Seeing that it was a win-win situation, Gu Baoxia didn't hesitate at all. When she saw the money Lu Yuanqing took out, she immediately agreed!
Lu Yuanbo was deeply moved: "Brother, you're so good to me!"
"But, just because of me, you and Sister Baoxia are just going to let it go like this? Isn't that too hasty?"
Lu Yuanbo was indeed moved. His third brother had been so good to him, even giving up his own marriage for him. How could he not be moved?
However, Lu Yuanbo was conflicted. Just because of him, he had caused his third brother's wife to leave. He had committed a terrible crime!
What he didn't know was how happy his third brother, Lu Yuanqing, was at that moment.
He was free to avenge Lu Yuanbo. Such a good thing! If he wasn't afraid of going to the Gu family now and becoming the center of gossip, he would have wanted to go and watch the showdown between Gu Baoxia and Zhao Fengqin and her son!
Those with ulterior motives would have loved to see them get beaten up; he regrettably missed out on such a good show.
Feeling secretly pleased with himself, Lu Yuanqing didn't forget to offer some perfunctory comfort to his aggrieved younger brother, "Yuanbo, remember, as long as your brother is here, I won't let anyone bully you." Except for him!
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuanbo was so moved that he burst into tears, "Brother..."
Lu Yuanqing patted his head and said, "Don't feel guilty. Don't think that my relationship with Gu Baoxia is because of you. She and I never had those feelings for each other. It's just that we were held back by many reasons and didn't know how to resolve them, which is why it's been delayed for so many years. If we wanted to get married, we would have done it long ago. We wouldn't have had to wait until now!"
"So don't blame everything on yourself. I'm your brother, I'll stand up for you and not let anyone bully you! Just you wait, right now Gu Baoxia is just making a scene at home, that's not all."
"There's still plenty of time. In the future, I'll help you get back at Zhao Fengqin and Gu Hewang properly!"
When Lu Yuanqing mentioned the two men's names, his tone carried a hint of vengeance.
Lu Yuanbo also said angrily, "I wanted to go and beat up Gu Hewang. I don't think I provoked him. Even if we smashed up his house before, it was his second aunt Niu Aixiang who was being unreasonable. He can't hold a grudge against us for that! That's too petty!"
"He encouraged me to go to the black market back then, and he thinks I don't understand what he was thinking? I didn't hold a grudge against him or cause him any trouble. I even gave him a ride when I saw him on my way to the commune. Is that how he remembers me for being kind?"
Lu Yuanqing chuckled and said, "You don't need to care about these things. Everyone is different. You are generous, cheerful, and don't hold grudges. You resolve things on the spot!"
"But Gu Hewang and his mother are the kind of people who hold grudges but not gratitude. So they like to hold grudges and want to take revenge on you from time to time."
"You don't need to tolerate people like that. We've done the right thing, so we'll just retaliate directly!"
“Okay!” Lu Yuanbo nodded in understanding. “But brother, I’ll go with the village this time when they’re shipping goods out! I’ll go to the city and also see my little sister and the others. Xiao Xi should be working now, right? I’ll go and check on her so no one bullies her!”
You've really grown up!
Lu Yuanqing sighed.
"Alright! I was planning to send you away to lay low for a while anyway. Gu Baoxia is probably going to cause trouble again these next few days; the village is too lively."
"Sister Baoxia is making a scene again, brother, did you let her do this?" Lu Yuanbo asked curiously.
Lu Yuanqing was puzzled upon hearing this: "When did you become so smart? Did you suddenly become enlightened?"
Lu Yuanbo: "..." It really is true!
Why does Sister Baoxia listen to you?
She's causing a huge scene at home because of a fiancé with whom she's already broken off their engagement?
Why?
Lu Yuanqing raised his eyebrows smugly and said, "Fourth brother, you should know that in this world, money is extremely useful!"
Gu Baoxia just happens to be someone who loves money!
Lu Yuanbo gasped, and with a complicated expression, gave Lu Yuanqing a thumbs up!
Great!
Lu Yuanqing raised an eyebrow!
Lu Yuanqing is certainly powerful, and his moves are also formidable.
Having received the money, Gu Baoxia used it as an excuse to cause a scene at the Gu family home.
Zhao Fengqin and Gu Hewang were thoroughly observed by everyone in the village that afternoon.
The criticism may be late, but it's here!
When the rest of the Gu family returned after receiving word of the incident, they managed to maintain the scene that made others so engrossed in watching the spectacle that they were practically pulling out sunflower seeds!
With the villagers who couldn't watch the show leaving, it was time for the Gu family to be held accountable.
Gu Weichang and Tian Xiaoju sat at the table with gloomy faces. The other members of the Gu family, Gu Baoxia and Gu Hailiang, stood on their left, while Zhao Fengqin and Gu Hewang stood on their right.
Everyone else was sent to the kitchen to cook and didn't participate in this Pidou event!
