Fang Hua was so angry at Guan Meiyi’ calling her “big sister-in-law” that her face turned red. After all, she was a few years younger than Guan Meiyi.
What did this woman mean? Was she mocking her for marrying Gu Zhilin?
Although Zhao Huimin felt awkward when Guan Meiyi called her “mother-in-law”, she was still happy when she saw Fang Hua was rebuked.
That’s right. In the Gu family, the only elders were the old master and her. Guan Meiyi was right to rebuke the arrogant Fang Hua and let her know her position in the family!
Fang Hua clenched her fists. “I’m the young mistress of the Gu family!”
“So what?” Guan Meiyi smiled innocently. “Big sister-in-law, do you have any misunderstanding about the term ’elder’?”
Fang Hua was furious. Just as she was about to retort, Guan Meiyi casually said calmly with a smile, “Big sister-in-law is right to say that I shouldn’t have come empty-handed. After all, Gu Zhiqian and I got married without telling you. It’s been more than a week now, and the Gu family probably doesn’t know about it yet.”
When Guan Meiyi said this, everyone present looked uncomfortable. Everyone knew that she and Gu Zhiqian had registered for marriage. It was reported on the Internet and television, so how could the Gu family not know? However, they had been waiting for them to come and tell them. But Gu Zhiqian didn’t take the Gu family seriously at all and didn’t come. In the end, senior Mr. Gu lost his cool and summoned Guan Meiyi when Gu Zhiqian’s wasn’t around.
Guan Meiyi’s words just now implied Gu family’s lack of concern for Gu Zhiqian and that Gu Zhiqian didn’t take the Gu family seriously at all.
Senior Mr. Gu’s expression changed several times. Obviously, he didn’t expect Guan Meiyi to be so sharp-tongued.
Angry to be called “big sister-in-law”, Fang Hua was about to lecture her when senior Mr. Gu opened his mouth unhappily.
“Okay, stop talking.”
If Fang Hua continued to talk, the whole Gu family would be embarrassed.
Hearing the old man’s words, Fang Hua could only give up. She stared at Guan Meiyi sulkily.
“Do you know why I called you here today?” The old man’s voice was deep and imposing.
Guan Meiyi shook her head. “I’m not sure.”
“I think you’ve forgotten the warning I gave you?” The old man asked.
Guan Meiyi knew what the old man was referring to. He had warned her to stay away from Gu Zhiqian.
“I remember it.” Guan Meiyi did not forget.
“But you still married Gu Zhiqian. Do you not take my words seriously?” Old Mr. Gu’s voice was obviously unhappy. “Now that you’re married to him, there’s no point in saying anything else. I called you here today to tell you that now that you’re married to Gu Zhiqian, you’re the granddaughter-in-law of the Gu family. However, it’s not so easy to be the granddaughter-in-law of the Gu family.”
“Exactly. Do you really think that anyone can be the daughter-in-law of the Gu family?” Fang Hua finally found an opportunity to speak.
Gu Zhihuan smiled and said sarcastically, “Exactly. You already have a lowly daughter-in-law, yet you now you have a lowly granddaughter-in-law, too.”
Gu Zhihuan was obviously mocking both Guan Meiyi and Zhao Huimin. Everyone knew that Zhao Huimin’s family background was not very good, which was why she valued her position as Mrs. Gu so much.
