In this era, society was progressing very fast. Over the next ten years, many people would be left behind because they could not keep up with the change in thinking and ideology.
Besides, society had only grown more open recently.
At this time, those who were truly at the forefront were a group of people who had excellent foresight and were progressive thinkers. This was also the first group of people who would grow rich from business.
The children from the Gu family were close to Gu Qingyao and Mo Beihan. The older cousins were practically guided continually by Gu Qingyao.
Later on, when Gu Qingyao went overseas, Gu Jinfeng followed and personally witnessed the prosperity of other countries. They had influenced each other, and they had all quickly come to realize the truth.
But Zhou Ping was not similarly equipped.
Zhou Ping did not believe Gu Jinlin at all.
“How could your youngest aunt have the ability to earn so much money? The Gu family even supports her and her daughter. She’s been divorced for so many years but doesn’t find a way to remarry. Instead, she returns to her family and becomes a burden to them. She…”
“Shut up!” Gu Yundong banged the table.
His younger sister had suffered terribly with her in-laws. After she returned home, she had remained in their hometown to take care of the two old folks. It was true that the Gu family had taken her in, but they were her family anyway. There was no law against divorced women returning home.
In the earlier years, Gu Yunshuang had worked in the fields when she was living in their old home. When they moved to the capital, she lived with Second Uncle. She really did not have much to do with them. If Second Uncle and the two old folks did not despise her, then Third Uncle’s family was in no position to judge.
“Why should I shut up? Have I said anything wrong? She was married for so many years, but she actually came back. Isn’t that embarrassing? A married woman is like water that has been thrown out. She’s already married; she shouldn’t have any connections with her family!”
Gu Jinxuan: “You’re also a married daughter. Why should you support your family?”
“I…” Zhou Ping choked on her words.
“I… I’m different. I’m not a burden to my family!”
“So you became a burden to your in-laws?”
“You…” Zhou Ping could not win an argument with Gu Jinxuan. She was shaking with rage.
Gu Jinxuan laughed coldly. “I think that the Gu family hasn’t taught you a harsh enough lesson, which is why you are still so bold!”
Zhou Ping’s eyes reddened with rage. “I’m bold? How am I bold? Just because I’m filial and gave my family a little money, you sent my older brother and nephew to jail. Now you’re reprimanding me?”
“The Gu family is clearly very rich and we have a share in the Gu family fortune. Why should they have so many servants and spend so much money when we have nothing? Why?”
Her time in the capital had caused Zhou Ping to crack mentally.
She had once been very glad and felt very superior to marry Gu Yundong and live in the city.
Before they had moved to the capital, others had envied her and her neighbors more or less had the same lifestyle. No, in fact, their lifestyle was inferior to hers!
The Gu family often sent them a little money. After all, the two older boys were not yet married, and the two younger boys were at their critical schooling years. At that time, she felt that she had a very, very good life.
But to her surprise, when she first moved to the capital and saw the luxury that the Gu family lived in, she realized that her life in the past was nothing.
Gu Qingyao’s wedding had been so grand!
