Chapter 37: 37

The Male Lead’s Wife in the ‘80s Chapter 37 – Complaining to Father Su

Gu Chunzhi clenched her hands and subconsciously refuted, “Guiyuan, I…”

“Man-er, have you had breakfast? Your village is far away from here. I assume you must have come without eating breakfast. Why don’t I and your Aunt Dongmei treat you to a meal first?” Yao Guiyuan didn’t want to listen to Gu Chunzhi at all. She turned her head and asked Su Man-er gently.

Su Man-er bit her lip. “I already ate. I ate a little at home with my sister-in-law before we set out…”

“You only ate a little, so you must be hungry now. Let’s go and eat.” Yao Guiyuan wrapped her arm around Su Man-er’s shoulder and walked to the street ahead.

Hao Dongmei gave Gu Chunzhi a cold look, pulled along the stunned Hong Yashan, and followed Yao Guiyuan and Su Man-er.

Looking at the backs of Yao Guiyuan and the others, Gu Chunmei was completely flustered and restless.

She frowned, turned her head, and whispered to Gu Chunzhi, “Elder Sister, what should we do now? If your neighbors say something to Brother-in-law, he will be angry. He…”

“What are you afraid of?!” Gu Chunzhi gritted her teeth. Although she was extremely flustered, she knew that she must remain calm now!

She couldn’t panic. If she panicked, things would develop in the worst direction! If she panicked, Su Mingzhe would discover everything she did in the past.

So she couldn’t panic now. She must not panic!

She frowned and remained silent for a few seconds. She suddenly lifted her feet and walked towards her home. “I have to go to City C today! Your brother-in-law is in City C, and I must find him immediately!”

She had to explain the situation to Su Mingzhe before Yao Guiyuan and the others complained to him. She had to strike first and gain the upper hand!

As long as Su Mingzhe believed her, she didn’t have to be afraid of what Yao Guiyuan and the others said in the future!

“Elder Sister, are you going to City C? Take care,” Gu Chunmei followed Gu Chunzhi, only expecting Gu Chunzhi to be able to resolve this matter.

If it couldn’t be resolved, Elder Sister would be in trouble.

If the eldest sister was in hot water, how could her family depend on Elder Sister?

So she expected that her Elder Sister could satisfactorily take care of this matter.

She couldn’t imagine living without her elder sister’s help. If she didn’t have her elder sister’s help, what would happen to her family?

……

Gu Chunzhi went home to pack her luggage and hurriedly left by bus.

There was no direct bus to City C from the town. She had to first take the bus to the county town and transfer from there.

While she transferred buses in the county town, Su Mingzhe came back with his two sons.

Originally, according to the original plan, Su Mingzhe and the others would spend a few more days before returning home.

But the situation changed. Su Mingzhe finished his work ahead of time, so he could go home ahead of time.

He excitedly came home with his two sons, but unexpectedly, there was no one home. His wife was not there, neither was his baby daughter.

Just as Su Mingzhe wondered whether his wife had taken Man-er out to play, his neighbors came to the door.

Seeing the two neighbors, Su Mingzhe was also very welcoming. He quickly took out some candy and stuffed them into his neighbor’s hands.

He knew that his neighbors had been kind to Man-er over the years. Sometimes they even treated Man-er like their own daughter.

So every time he came home, he would give his neighbors something, hoping to maintain their friendship.

“Big Brother Su, no need to be so polite. You give us good things every time you come back. We’re sorry for inconveniencing you,” Yao Guiyuan refused with a smile on her face.

Hao Dongmei echoed, “Yes, keep these things for yourself.”

Su Mingzhe smiled, “This is a matter of course. It was tough for you to take care of Man-er every day. I should give you these things.” Then he forced the things into their hands.

When Su Mingzhe mentioned Su Man-er, Hao Dongmei and Yao Guiyuan’s faces both fell slightly.

The two looked at each other, seeing anger and pity in each other’s eyes.

Obviously, they were angry at Gu Chunzhi’s behavior and sorry for Su Man-er who was married off.

“Big Brother Su, we’re here to tell you about Man-er.” Hao Dongmei looked at Su Mingzhe with a calm and solemn countenance.

Su Mingzhe was stunned. “Something about Man-er? What’s the matter with Man-er? Also, you see that my Man-er isn’t here. Why isn’t she at home?”

“Big Brother Su, Su Man-er got married. She’s at her husband’s house now,” Yao Guiyuan hurriedly said.

“What?!” Su Mingzhe raised his voice, and he was shocked as if he had been struck by lightning. “What did you say? You said my Man-er got married? She got married?!”

“Yes,” Yao Guiyuan nodded. “She got married a few days ago. She married Chi Yunchen from Biyun Village.”

Su Mingzhe, “…” His face suddenly paled, and his body shook unsteadily.

Su Man-er’s two brothers hurried to support him.

Su Ruize, Su Man-er’s eldest brother, said, “Aunt Guiyuan, is what you said true? My sister is really married?”

“It’s true. Your mother married Man-er off for a bride price of 1288 yuan. Man-er didn’t get a cent of the bride price. It all fell into Gu Chunmei’s pocket!” Yao Guiyuan’s voice rose, and her tone was obviously angry.

Su Junheng, Su Man-er’s second brother, widened his eyes. “My mother… she married Man-er for a bride price?”

“Who knows. Maybe she married Man-er off for the money or maybe she doesn’t want to keep Man-er at home,” Hao Dongmei said, her tone similarly indignant.

Su Mingzhe sat down on the chair behind him with a “bang.” His whole body was weak, and his face was both mournful and angry.

His Man-er was actually married off by Gu Chunzhi. His Man-er…didn’t even graduate from school yet!

“Today, we saw Man-er at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative. You don’t know that at that time, Older Sister Gu wanted to hit Man-er because Man-er said she shouldn’t have given Gu Chunmei the entire bride price. At that moment, Older Sister Gu was unbridled and even said she wanted to beat Man-er to death.” Yao Guiyuan was an expert whistle-blower. Seeing the anger on their faces, she quickly explained Gu Chunzhi’s wrongdoing.

Upon hearing Yao Guiyuan’s words, Su Mingzhe clasped his hands. He raised his hands and hit the armrests with a “bang.”

Hao Dongmei looked at Su Mingzhe and complained, “Big Brother Su, Older Sister Gu usually pretends to be gentle and virtuous. She normally pretends to be nice to Man-er, but in reality, she insults Man-er behind your back every day. After scolding her, she even threatens Man-er and tells Man-er not to tell others! Man-er has been bullied a lot by her all these years!”
