To be honest, Zhong Guangping totally did not believe that Gu Qingyao had any intentions to his family.
He was glad that his daughter had met Gu Qingyao. Besides receiving treatment for her, it was an honor to be close to someone with that kind of identity.
He did not understand why it became manipulation in Zheng Lin’s eyes?
Zheng Lin had her own thoughts. “So what if she’s at a high position. The Gu family came from the countryside. How can they educate their girls well? The Qiao family has no influence in the capital. Besides being rich, what else do they have?
“It’s understandable that normal families try to get close to them. Why are you behaving this way? Gu Qingyao is rich, but why would she still care about the siblings of the Chen family? From my perspective, she just doesn’t want to help them but tries not to show her true intention. That’s why she kept our daughter, and then the Chen siblings would be able to ask for money and things in return from us.
“In the end, we did everything but they would not be grateful to us. They will be grateful to Gu Qingyao. She just wants to take the credit without doing anything.”
Zhong Guangping: “…”
He felt that he totally could not understand his wife anymore.
“Lin Lin, you were born in an influential family and have received the best education. You were a kind and understandable Young Lady before we got married. You were always caring and considerate in our marriage. I have always respected you. Why did you become like this now?”
Zheng Lin was really born into a good family.
The Zheng family was renowned. Almost everyone in the family, from past generations, were all well-educated.
Zheng Lin was a real Young Lady.
Her parents did not have great achievements and lived based on the older generation’s property. However, her uncle’s family was very insightful.
When her grandparents were still around, her uncle was the eldest son in the family. He was the future heir and would inherit almost everything of the Zheng family.
However, her uncle discussed with his father to donate all of their assets.
That was not an easy decision to be made by normal people.
The Master of the Zheng family at that time was still Old Master Zheng, Zheng Lin’s grandfather. He was a landowner.
His son and grandson’s generation were not counted.
The Old Master used all his assets to support the country in the war. The land he owned was distributed to farmers. He only kept a small piece of land for younger generations.
He even sold his huge house, and the entire family moved to the countryside.
Zheng Lin’s uncle’s family members were mainly in the army, doctors and teachers. All of them were supporting the nation. The impact on the Zheng family was minimal when most families suffered from the misfortunes.
During the tumultuous times, many people of the Zheng family remained hidden and unknown. Though the Zheng family now was not as capable as other families, they lost very few people over the years.
Zheng Lin was the youngest in the family and did not suffer at all.
It appeared that the Zheng family had no assets left.
However, since it was prepared, no one knew if they had secretly hidden some assets.
Zheng Lin’s family was always her pride.
Educated people were always more arrogant. Zheng Lin was proud of her identity as the Young Lady of the family. She looked down on those who were not educated and businessmen.
Zheng Lin felt heartbroken after hearing Zhong Guangping’s words. “Where did I change? Who do you think I have become now? I’m a mother, and my daughter is being manipulated by others and is suffering. As a mother, I can only watch and can’t do anything. What do you think I should do?”
