Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path Chapter 217: Here We Go Again

Gu Lingling guessed right.

Gu Chunli ca again on the third day.

Not only did he fail to borrow a single grain from Wang ili, but he was also thoroughly mocked by her.

Growing up, Gu Chunli had never been so embarrassed.

But when he thought about how he went to Wang ili to borrow grains solely because he took Gu Lingling’s advice and sought out that madwoman, his resentnt towards Gu Lingling grew even stronger.

Especially when Liu Xiufeng whispered to him at night, saying that his niece wasn’t simple and had the cunning to drive Wang ili out of the Gu Family.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt used by Gu Lingling.

"Uncle and Aunt are here," Gu Lingling said with a smile, inviting them in and addressing Old Sir Gu inside, "Grandpa, my uncle and aunt are here to see you."

Gu Chunli’s face turned awkward.

Co to see Old Sir? Who visits soone without bringing anything?

That dead girl.

Beside him, Liu Xiufeng gave Gu Lingling a stern glare; the girl used to be quiet, but now she had beco quite eloquent.

"Dad, you have to help us," Liu Xiufeng started crying as soon as she arrived, "We can’t even afford to cook at ho, and we really have no other choice."

"I know we haven’t visited these past few years, but isn’t it because of work? If we ask for leave, our wages get docked."

While crying, Liu Xiufeng threw a glance at Gu Chunli.

"Yes, Dad, we just need so grains, we can pay you back next spring, can’t we?" Gu Chunli said, "Besides, you should treat everyone equally, right?"

"The family bought a house for Elder Sister-in-law, and I didn’t say anything about it."

"If you have anything to say, you can say it now," Old Man Gu said with a sneer, looking at his youngest son.

Because he was the youngest son, he had been spoiled since childhood, and the older siblings also yielded to him. But unexpectedly, he grew into such a selfish person.

He had taken his father’s job to support his mother-in-law’s family, and as long as he was willing, even if he didn’t visit, Old Man Gu could pretend not to have this son.

But now, he expected the Old Gu Family to support the Li Family along with him? Sorry, they couldn’t do it.

"We don’t want you to buy us a house, just give us so grains..."

"What do you an, not buying a house?" Liu Xiufeng pushed Gu Chunli away angrily, "Dad, you’re so biased. They’re both sons, yet you bought such a big house for Elder Sister-in-law’s family in the city."

The house wasn’t actually big, but it was better than Gu Chunli’s family cramd into the Liu Family’s tube-shaped building.

Both Liu Xiufeng and Gu Chunli were workers, and the factory allocated housing for dual workers.

But Liu Xiufeng insisted on giving the house to her brother, who was a year younger, simply because her younger brother’s wife didn’t want to squeeze into the tube-shaped building with the family.

Liu Xiufeng now regretted it. When the Gu Family split the properties, soone ca to talk to them, but she thought it was just dividing Old Gu Family’s houses, and they wouldn’t go back to live there anyway.

If the houses were divided, what if Old Mrs. Gu forced them to live there?

Besides, if the division included their wages, then it wasn’t better than how they lived now.

She had experienced her elder sister-in-law Wang ili’s prowess.

But unexpectedly, Gu Chunhai agreed to buy a house for Wang ili in the city.

In the past, she wouldn’t have dared to think about it, as the houses were all public. But unexpectedly, Gu Chunhai was so capable, he could get a house from the governnt.

This unsettled her.

Why?

They’re both Old Gu Family’s sons; why is there such a gap?

"Biased? Unfair?" Gu Chunhai’s voice ca from the doorway, "Gu Chunli, is this what you think too?"
