Gu Jing and Gu's father suffered several broken ribs and were admitted to the hospital for treatment.
Grandma Gu is old, so the burden of taking care of their father and son is passed on to Aunt Gu and Cousin Gu.
It wouldn't matter if they were just taking care of them. The key was that Aunt Gu and her daughter would be beaten with sacks when they went out.
No matter how vigilant they were, it was useless. When they didn't expect it, everything went dark and they were beaten randomly.
As a result, they now live by ordering takeout and dare not step out of the hospital door.
Aunt Gu and Cousin Gu were beaten several times. They were scared and wanted to go back to City C, but Gu Jing disagreed.
He was unwilling to return without success and wanted to continue to find ways to benefit from Jiang Heshu.
Aunt Gu persuaded her earnestly: "Jiang Heshu now is different from before. She loved you before, and even if we made things difficult for her, she was willing to endure it for you."
"But it's too late for her to hate you now, so how can she be willing to give you benefits?"
Cousin Gu also said: "My mother is right. Now Jiang Heshu needs a backer and money. If we go up against her, we will be the only ones who suffer."
In fact, they were already at a disadvantage now. Gu Jing and Gu's father had their ribs broken and had to lie in the hospital for a week, while she and her mother were put in sacks several times and beaten so badly that even calling the police was useless.
Although the people who put the sacks came and went without a trace and they had no evidence, the Gu family knew that Jiang Heshu must have brought this group of people.
Unfortunately, no matter what the mother and daughter said, Gu Jing refused to go back.
He said: "There will always be a way. If it doesn't work for one day, it will take ten days. If it doesn't work for ten days, it will take twenty days."
Anyway, he has no job now, so he doesn't need to worry about being unavailable.
In addition, Gu Jing felt that as long as he could get 30 million yuan and the position of director of the villa in City A and the Pei Group, it would be worth it no matter how much time he put in.
He was willing to spend it, but Aunt Gu was not willing.
She paid for Gu Jing and Gu's father's medical expenses in advance. In addition, the consumption level in City A is much higher than that in City C. She paid for all the meals this week. If she continues to stay...
They had an argument for the first time.
Aunt Gu said without hesitation: "Now if you want benefits, come to someone. Where did you go before? Rabbits don't eat grass on the edge of their nests. How about you? Cheating on someone's cousin, what's the difference between slapping Jiang Heshu?" ?”
"I'll leave it at that. If Jiang Heshu is willing to give you a penny, I'll call you aunt."
This was really outrageous, and Grandma Gu scolded: "As an elder, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Eventually, they broke up.
Aunt Gu took her daughter out of the ward, got in the car and went straight to the airport.
Gu Jing's face was full of irritation in the hospital bed. At this moment, he received an unfamiliar number from City A.
"Gu Jing, right? I can help you accomplish your goal."
From the opposite side, a strange young female voice came.
——
Another week passed in the blink of an eye.
The person who hit the Chu family's car was a middle-aged man in his fifties with hearing problems. He worked as a cleaner in City A and his family was very poor.
The man insisted that the Chu family's car was in his blind spot and he accidentally hit it.
Now he is being held in a detention center, awaiting trial.
Chu's father's body had been left for half a month. When Chu's mother was discharged from the hospital, a memorial service was finally held.
But the scene was particularly deserted and simple.
Chu Yu was imprisoned in a mental hospital. Chu's mother had both legs amputated. She was sitting in a wheelchair wearing white clothes, her eyes were red and swollen, and she was mentally exhausted.
Very few people came to the memorial service, even some relatives did not come.
First, because Chu's father passed away, leaving only a mentally ill son, the family was completely in ruins.
The second reason is that Chu Yu is not a good person and usually ignores meat and vegetables, which offends many people.
Most of the people who came came to watch the fun.
Chu's mother was worried about her future life, and she shed two more tears.
At this moment, there was a burst of exclamation from the people next to him.
Mother Chu looked up and saw a group of people walking in.
The leader was Grandma Pei. Mother Chu's eyes lit up. As long as the Pei family was willing to support her, her future life would still be smooth and worry-free...
Just as she was thinking about it, Chu's mother saw a young woman wearing a flamboyant red dress next to Grandma Pei.
Her long black hair was permed into curls and let down, making her face look even smaller.
The originally delicate facial features, painted with bright and beautiful makeup, are like delicate red roses in the sun, extremely dazzling.
It was incompatible with the solemn and solemn atmosphere of the mourning hall, which was only black and white. It looked so dazzling and eye-catching.
Mother Chu's expression froze, and her hands on the wheelchair clenched unconsciously.
Almost in the blink of an eye, everyone's eyes moved to her.
"Who is this woman? She came to the memorial service wearing a red dress. Those who didn't know better thought she was attending a banquet."
"She is following Mrs. Pei, and she should be from the Pei family, but why is she so unwilling to give the Chu family face? Chu Yu is also from the Pei family after all..."
Everyone was talking about everything.
Mrs. Zhang interjected: "Don't even guess, this is Mr. Pei's wife."
Someone exclaimed, "It turns out that President Pei married her..."
"Dress up to attend the memorial service. Does Mr. Pei's wife have a grudge against the Chu family?"
If Jiang Heshu heard it, he would definitely nod and say: Yes.
Her feud with the Chu family is not shallow.
Jiang Heshu looked at Chu's mother in the wheelchair with a stiff and pale face, the corners of her lips slightly hooked, and she followed Grandma Pei slowly over.
Originally she wasn't planning to come over, but then she thought about it. She was Pei Yan's wife and the niece-in-law of Chu's mother's natal family. She should come over to 'comfort' Chu's mother, both emotionally and rationally.
But Chu’s mother didn’t seem to welcome her arrival...
Seeing her particularly ugly expression, the smile on Jiang Heshu's face deepened, making her already pretty face even more stunning.
"My condolences." Grandma Pei patted Chu's mother on the shoulder.
Chu's mother burst into tears. She didn't know whether she was thinking of her husband or because she was angry at Jiang Heshu.
Jiang Heshu stood aside for a moment, looking at Chu's mother with a hint of mockery in her eyes, as if to say: Look, retribution is coming.
Mother Chu was so angry that she wanted to yell, but she noticed Grandma Pei and Pei Yan from the corner of her eye.
In the past, Chu's mother would have dared to curse a few words, but now that she has no husband and her son is not around, she doesn't dare anymore.
But fortunately, someone dared. At this moment, a man shouted angrily from behind.
"Jiang Heshu, why are you dressed like this?"
Everyone looked up and saw Pei Luying, his third wife Liu Qian, and their daughter Pei Liya.
In addition to them, Jiang Heshu also saw a few acquaintances, Pei Shun and Cousin Pei, who had followed Pei Luying to cause trouble for her.
Catching Jiang Heshu's gaze, Pei Shun and Cousin Pei took a step back, further away from Pei Luying.
It was obvious that Jiang Heshun's violent beating had left a very deep impression on them.
Pei Luying, who was also beaten, was not as understanding as them, and she actually dared to act like an elder in front of Jiang Heshu.
But Jiang Heshu also knew where his confidence came from.
Pei Luying glanced at Grandma Pei and continued to scold: "Who taught you to wear a red dress to the memorial service? Do you know the rules? You are an uneducated thing. It's really embarrassing. Why don't you go back and change your clothes!"
He didn't believe that Jiang Heshu dared to do something to him in front of his mother's face
Chu's mother took the opportunity to say: "Actually, it's understandable. After all, Jiang Heshu is different from the wealthy daughter who received excellent education since childhood. She is born with a lack of education and it's normal to not be polite."
He was mocking and belittling Jiang Heshu both overtly and covertly.
After Chu's mother finished speaking, she winked at her mother-in-law without leaving any trace.
Mrs. Chu immediately stepped forward with an angry look on her face: "Although our Chu family is not as good as the Pei family, you can't humiliate us like this!"
"Haoxuan Haoran, please 'invite' Mrs. Pei out."
