Like her Second Cousin, Gu Jinhang, He really loved Ji Mingyue, but he did not spoil her. The Gu Family needed a mistress and Ji Mingyue had to be trained, so he had personally attended to her training.
As a result, everyone was pleased. He married someone he loved and provided the family with a mistress who was fit to manage the family.
For Third Uncle’s family, the ideal solution would be to either restrain Zhou Ping or make her come to her senses, Alternatively, they must find a way of making her toe the line. Only then could Zhou Ping continue to live with Third Uncle’s family, and they could have a happy family.
But neither Gu Yundong nor Gu Jinlin had achieved this.
All they could do was to either helplessly continue paying Zhou Ping’s endless debts, or be burdened by her, or… get divorced and have a broken family!
Now, Gu Jinxuan had chosen the best but hardest path.
If Zhou Ping learnt her lesson this time, and experienced loss, she might be able to change after she had suffered enough. Then Gu Jinxuan might be able to bring her back to the capital.
Mo Beihan pulled Gu Qingyao over. He looked at her bulging stomach. “Look at you! Stop worrying! Just take care of yourself. Our baby will be here in a few months.”
Mo Beihan stared at her stomach almost every day. Really, the satisfaction he got from watching the child grow gradually was irreplaceable.
After being reborn for so long, they had always had their experiences from their previous lives, and many things were within their control. But this was the first time they would have a child. This feeling was indescribable. Mo Beihan had been very excited ever since he discovered that Gu Qingyao was
pregnant. Now, as he saw her stomach growing every day and the day of the child’s birth drew nearer, he grew even more excited.
Gu Qingyao looked down at her own stomach. She thought for a while and smiled, “Once he’s born, it will be very difficult to take care of him. Little children are so fussy. I won’t even be able to sleep well!”
Mo Beihan: “No problem, I’ll take care of him!”
“Are you up to it?”
“Of course! I guarantee that you’ll never have to worry about the child. All right?”
Gu Qingyao stared at him in disbelief.
Mo Beihan coaxed her, “Haven’t I always obeyed you? I’m so obedient that even if I don’t take care of the child, all you have to do is issue an order and I won’t be able to disobey.”
Gu Qingyao was amused!
“You’re the one who said it! Don’t look for me when the child cries.”
“I promise I won’t look for you. You’re in charge of giving birth. I’m in charge of raising the child. It’s fair!”
Gu Qingyao looked at him smilingly. Go ahead and be excited! Go ahead and be excited! Let’s see how you react when the time comes. Hmph!
Meanwhile, Gu Jinxuan had brought Zhou Ping south on the train.
In the capital, it was almost the new year. Zhou Ping had never thought that things would come to this. Just a few days ago, she had been on the phone, listening to her mother praise her for being so capable. Now a few days later, she had been driven out of the family?
Zhou Ping did not say much on the journey. Gu Jinxuan escorted her, and they arrived at the Zhou house on New Year’s Eve.
Zhou Ping had not returned to the Zhou house for a long time.
Even when they lived in the provincial capital, her family was not close by. Train tickets were very expensive, so she seldom went back. But she always sent them money and presents.
Then she moved to the capital, so she had not come back.
Tomorrow was New Year’s Day. The village was filled with festive joy. In those years, New Year was always a festive occasion in the villages. So once they entered the village, they could clearly sense the festive mood.
But things were different in the Zhou house!
