80s Wife Is Sweet and Sassy - Chapter 81

Chapter 81 – The best stepmother in history (2)

“That’s right, little uncle. You can’t casually pour the dirty water on me.” Gu Jianshe said while gritting his teeth.

But just as soon as he finished speaking, Old Mr. Gu’s expression changed, and he was full of anger. He grabbed another teacup and threw it at Gu Jianshe. The teacup hit Gu Jianshe’s forehead, then it fell to the ground, shattered into pieces.

“Jianshe, are you okay?”

Zhu Yuzhen looked at her son distressedly. Gu Jianshe’s forehead was full of blood, and it covered his face. She felt very sad, but she didn’t dare to complain or show any dissatisfaction, she only dared to complain about her father-in-law in her heart.

After all, her father-in-law was the pillar of the Gu family. Her family all relied on the support of this old man to be able to live so well. So of course she wouldn’t dare to complain.

“Yeye1, I… Bilian and I are really innocent.”

1Ye ye (爷爷) : paternal grandfather 

Gu Jianshe gritted his teeth, endured the severe pain, and was still trying to defend himself. He absolutely could not admit it, anyway the child would not be born. So as long as he did not admit, it would be alright.

Old Mr. Gu’s face was even worse, and Lin Yulan next to him was also very disappointed. Gu Jianshe was the grandson she brought up by herself since he was a child.

Although he was not her biological grandson, he was also the one with the deepest affection. She even spent more energy on Gu Jianshe than her own biological son, Gu Ye.

But now Gu Jianshe had meddled in her son’s private life and committed adultery with his wife. Of course Lin Yulan was not happy.

Although the relationship between Gu Ye and her was not good, she really loved her son. But it was just that the way she expressed her mother’s love was different from what Gu Ye wanted. So the relationship between mother and son was very stiff.

“Jianshe, Bilian also said that she and Xiao Ye are only registered as couples (a husband and wife in name only), so the child in her belly is impossible to be Xiao Ye’s, it’s yours.” Lin Yulan’s voice was very gentle, as she always spoke like this, as if she would never lose her temper.

Lin Yulan looked at her son with pity. In fact, Xu Bilian’s original words were not like this. The words she said were very offensive, she said that Gu Ye was disabled, just like the eunuch. And these words were already spread in the compound, so now everyone knew that her son was disabled.

Lin Yulan was very heartbroken, and at the same time she felt even more angry. Her son was already in such a miserable situation, but Gu Jianshe and Xu Bilian still wanted to bully her son, which was too much.

Gu Ye turned his head away, he didn’t want to look at his mother. The mother and son relationship between him and Lin Yulan was thinner than paper. It probably would never get any better in this lifetime, and he was already getting used to it.

Lin Yulan felt a pain in her heart, and her expression looked like she was so hurt. She lowered her head, she knew why Xiao Ye blamed her, but she was a stepmother.

Lin Yin, the biological mother of Gu Jiefang brothers, was kind to her. Lin Yin entrusted Gu Jiefang brothers to her (Lin Yulan) before she (Lin Yin) died. She also promised to take good care of Jiefang and Heping, and she did as she promised.

Besides, with so many eyes staring at her words and deeds as a stepmother, she could only do her best to take care of the brothers wholeheartedly, and even to their children. 

Xiao Ye was a year younger than Gu Jianshe, but he had a higher seniority in generation. At that time, the country was in the difficult times, even the people like her family did not have enough rations.

Gu Jianshe was raised by her side since he was a child, and Lin Yulan always left the good things to Gu Jianshe, as she didn’t want people to say that she was a bad step-grandmother and let other people gossip.

Moreover, Gu Jianshe was the younger generation, and Xiao Ye was the elder. So it was also right for him to yield a little. Lin Yulan felt that she didn’t do anything wrong, but her son resented and blamed her for this, he didn’t even want to get close with her. This had become the biggest pain in Lin Yulan’s heart.

Gu Ye also felt his mother’s pain and sufferings. He could only smile self-deprecatingly, and his expression became more indifferent.

His mother really did a very good job as a stepmother. Even he had to praise her. But these good things were exchanged on the basis of wronging her own biological son, so why should he forgive this woman?

Old Mr. Gu looked so disappointed at his grandson, whose forehead was still bleeding. Even at this time, he was still being stubborn. Old Mr. Gu shouted coldly, “I will ask you again for the last time, who does that child belong to?”

Gu Jianshe’s heart skipped a beat, and his back was covered in cold sweat. But he had already reached this point, he couldn’t admit. He had to keep denying it, so he said, “It’s my little uncle’s child.”Some readers said that the beginning scene, about the female lead giving birth and they have to choose to protect the mother or the child, was outdated, and it can’t be like this now. Well, that’s right, there are indeed new laws and regulations now, which have to protect the mother. But when the female lead died in the previous life, she was 42 years old, it was the year of 2000, and this regulation still hasn’t come out so the author didn’t write it blindly. Once again, the author asks for the support, love you guys!
