Gu Qingyao sighed. “Our family has been doing well for the past few years. Our lives have improved ever since we moved to the capital. With Third Aunt behaving this way, no wonder Little Seven and Little Eight are upset. If she refuses to come to her senses, the entire family will be destroyed.”
Gu Jinhang laughed coldly and said somewhat heartlessly, “Gu men are not so fragile. I think that Little Seven and Little Eight might not care that much about Third Aunt. Yao Yao, don’t forget that Number Three was the one who mostly brought them up since they were young.”
Gu Qingyao paused. “That’s true too…”
It took 20 days for Gu Jinxuan to return to the capital. It was a Sunday, and Little Seven and Little Eight were at home, revising their work. When they saw that Gu Jinxuan had returned, they hurriedly greeted him. “Fifth Brother!”
Little Seven did not say anything when he saw that there was no one else with him.
Little Eight asked, “Didn’t Mother come back with you?”
Gu Jinxuan shook his head. “No. When I left, her sole concern was still the Zhou family. She still blamed me and said I should not have treated her like that.”
Little Eight was furious. “Does Mother ever consider us? She borrowed so much money and it was Second Cousin who settled it. Fortunately, the matter was suppressed early, or we would have become laughingstocks. Even then, some well-informed people found out about it, and some people in school
are making fun of us!”
The Gu family was so powerful that most people did not dare to gossip about them. But some secret discussion was inevitable.
Little Seven said, “Fifth Brother, then… we will not have a mother in the future?”
Gu Jinxuan was rather irritated by this question. “You just have to focus on your studies. Of course, you still have a mother. Isn’t she perfectly fine living with the Zhous? You’re all grown up. Do you need your mother by your side? Mother is just not suited to life in the Gu family. She is still our mother. If
you miss her, I can bring you to visit her once you finish your university entrance exams.”
The two children were surprised. They had not expected their older brother to say that.
‘When Gu Jinxuan saw their expression, he asked, “What’s the matter? Did I say anything wrong? Remember, this incident with Mother arose because she does not think clearly and is not suited to stay with the Gu family. The Gu family definitely will not tolerate her in the long run. She did something
wrong this time, and the next time, she might make an even bigger error. Then we will all be implicated. Do you understand?
“Don’t be too upset. Like I said, she is still our mother, just that she’s staying in the Zhou house. Since she’s so concerned about the Zhou family, she might as well go and take care of them. If you want to take care of her in the future, you can always visit her. For now, you should just focus on your studies.
The university entrance exams are very soon!”
Gu Jinxuan had been exhausted by his journey and was in a bad mood. He took a shower and went to rest.
Little Seven and Little Eight were standing in the living room, They exchanged glances, then sat down silently.
Little Seven, Gu Jinyue said, “What do you think of what Fifth Brother said?”
Little Eight, Gu Jinhui, was silent for a long time before he said, “Even though what he said might seem a little hardhearted towards Mother, when she did all those things, she never considered whether we would be affected. Actually, I think Fifth Brother is right. If we can’t bear to see her suffer, we can
take care of her in the future. If we miss her, we can always visit her.
“Second Uncle and his family are the heads of the Gu family. This time, they did not punish Mother even after she did those things! Even if we visit her in the future, the Gu family certainly will not stop us..”
