They wished for their daughter to be able to stand firmly and proudly in their husband’s home.
Although the Lin family were not rich, they also wanted to do their best.
They told Gu Zi that they were still making two new bedsheets, new bed curtains, new pillows, and new quilts. When they were done, they would ask Lin Cheng to send them to the Su family to decorate the new house.
Gu Zi’s eyes were filled with tears. At first, she only wanted to fulfill her filial piety on behalf of the original owner, but she did not expect to receive such sincere affection in return.
“Thank you, Mom and Sister-in-law. I’ll definitely use it well,” she said. The three women hugged for a while.
Gu Zi kept those gifts and went out to hug Lele. Lin Cheng was teasing her. He was still in his twenties, and still had a natural naivety air about him.
After Gu Zi held Lele, she was pulled into a conversation by the people chatting at the door. She didn’t speak much; mainly, she listened.
Everyone was talking about Su Li. Someone mentioned that Su Li and her son were classmates and couldn’t help but sigh.
“Su Li was so pitiful. Not only was he dressed in rags, but he also ate half-cooked sweet potatoes for lunch every day. Every time my son came back and told me, I was surprised. The Su family is so rich. How could they treat their children like this?”
Later, she discovered it was due to the harsh treatment from a previous stepmother and then Chu Xi.
Someone added, “That Chu Xi was no good either. Not only did she take money from the Su family and not do her job, but she also stole meat from the Su family, making the two kids eat rotten leafy greens. Luckily, she got caught.”
Another lady said, “”But it’s good now that Gu Zi’s here. You don’t know, but Su Li is quite different at school now. Every day, he goes in and out of the school’s bicycle shed with his brother. He’s well-dressed and eats exquisite food. He also brings some canned fruit, grass jelly, and other snacks to school. My son is so envious that he keeps pestering me for some bean jelly grass every day.” Everyone praised Gu Zi for her pure nature and kindness to the children.
However, someone remarked that Gu Zi, being so beautiful and intelligent, not having children with Su Shen was a pity and unfair to her.
Gu Zi felt bad when she heard the first part of the conversation. It turned out that Su Bing did not even know how to cook sweet potatoes in the past.
She Imew that the two boys had been mistreated before, but she had never thought that it would be so overboard.
Chu Xi took the Su family’s money and didn’t even prepare lunch for the children?
She started to miss those two boys. She wondered if they had eaten properly.
When she heard one of the ladies talking about the changes in Su Li recently, a smile appeared on her lips.
Since she had agreed to marry Su Shen, she would treat the children well. She should nurture them well and give them love.
Thinking of this, Gu Zi wanted to return to the Su family immediately.
She said, “There’s nothing unfair about it. Su Shen said from the beginning that he doesn’t want children. I think it’s fine. Nothing is regrettable.”
When the Lin family heard Gu Zi say this, their eyes revealed a doting expression.
At the same time, they felt sorry for the plight of the Su family’s children. Why did they keep encountering such malicious people?
They suddenly realized that if Lin Miao had married into the Su family, those children might have suffered.
They now had a clear view of Lin Miao and did not have any expectations for her. However, they also hoped that she would be fine and would not make any more mistakes in the future. They also really hoped that Lin Miao did not take the money.
Saturday, at the Su family residence.
Father and sons woke up before dawn to pack. Su Shen was cooking in the kitchen, while Su Bing and Su Li were preparing snacks.
Su Li kept stuffing spicy strips into a bag. He remembered that his stepmother loved these, so he asked his dad to buy them yesterday.
When Su Shen came to call them for breakfast, he saw the bulging bags they were carrying and thought, ‘Are these two children trying to lure Gu Zi back with snacks?’
The three of them ate very quickly. Even Su Li, who loved to talk the most, didn’t say much today.
At the Lin family’s side, Gu Zi had just finished washing up when she heard the rhythmic mechanical roar.
She rushed to the door and saw the figures she had been expecting. It was Su Shen with the two boys.
Su Shen stopped the motorcycle and let the two children get off first. Then, he walked toward her.
Under the faint morning sunlight, the man’s handsome and mature face gradually became clearer.
When Mrs. Lin saw them, she said to the two children, “You must be Su Bing and Su Li. Gu Zi just said that she misses you, and you came along with Daddy. You really have the tacit understanding of a mother and son.”
Su Shen walked up to Gu Zi and unexpectedly felt a tinge of jealousy.. He asked her, “Gu Zi, didn’t you miss me?”
