“You…” Zhou Ping said angrily, “Jinxuan, that’s your grandmother. How can you speak about her like that?”
Gu Jinxuan laughed coldly. “How do you want me to speak about her? She’s an old lady who is in good health but keeps saying she’s ill. Who does she think we are? What does she want from our family besides money?
“Her three sons are all useless. The grandchildren that she has raised are all worthless. You, her daughter, are the one who contributes the most to the family. You not only support them in their old age, but you also support your older brothers, nephews, and nieces. Mother, you’re so capable!”
“You…”
“Shut up!” Gu Yundong ground his teeth as he looked at Zhou Ping. “Speak for yourself. Is Jinxuan telling the truth? Have you spent all the money on the Zhou family?”
At that point, Zhou Ping knew that she had no choice but to admit it. Besides, she felt that it was only right for her to be filial to her family. The Gu family was so rich; what she took was completely insignificant. Why should they unite against her? And interrogate her?
“That’s right, I did give it to my mother. My mother is ill and needs to go to the hospital. Surely, I can’t watch her die?”
Gu Yundong looked at her for a long time. Suddenly, he felt incredibly heartsick!
“Zhou Ping! For so many years, I have repeatedly said everything that needs to be said. We have even quarreled over this many times. Fine!”
Gu Yundong clutched the things in his hands. Both his hands were shaking. This time, he did not quarrel with Zhou Ping. In fact, he did not even argue.
Gu Jinxuan said, “Father, we can’t go on like this. We must teach the Zhou family a lesson. Mother, this time we will warn your older brother. Let me tell you, if you continue to support your family like that, I will make you regret it.”
Zhou Ping was stunned. She had not expected her favorite and closest son to be the first one to act so ruthlessly in this matter.
“Xuan… Xuan’er, what are you going to do?”
Gu Jinxuan laughed coldly and said to Gu Yundong, “Father, my uncle has committed plenty of crimes. Think of a way to send him to jail for two years.”
Zhou Ping’s eyes widened. She looked completely incredulous.
“You… Xuan’er, you… what did you say?”
Gu Jinxuan looked at the shocked Zhou Ping and smiled. “You heard me. I want Uncle to go to jail for two years.”
Zhou Ping was so shocked she stumbled backwards before she managed to steady herself.
“You… are you crazy? That’s your uncle, your own uncle. You… how can you send him to jail? Your heartless creature. You…”
Zhou Ping was so angry she rushed over to hit Gu Jinxuan. Gu Jinxuan’s words had been a major blow. She felt that Gu Jinxuan was being too vicious.
Gu Jinxuan reached out and grabbed Zhou Ping’s hand. He gave Zhou Ping a sharp tug and pulled her close to him. He pressed his face close to hers and said brutally, “You know that going to jail is bad? If you knew, why not obey earlier? Have we ever stopped you from helping Grandmother’s family? That’s my grandmother and your family. Of course, we won’t stop you from being filial to them. But you care about those people at the expense of your own family!
“That bunch is all useless. They’re entirely dependent on our family, but they don’t show an ounce of gratitude. They act as if they are entitled to it. I can’t stand them.
“Now they’re growing bold! They even dared to take the fifteen thousand yuan. Who do they think the Gus are? Do they think the Gu family is so easily bullied?”
Zhou Ping was so terrified by how vicious her son was that she was robbed of speech.. She could not accept it. Was this really her son?
