Gu Qingyao's lips arched, and said, “My grandparents and I have eaten.”

Zhang Xiaohui was stunned, “Your sister and I have not eaten yet. Go and cook dinner for us now!”

Gu Qingyao smiled, “You're so rich now, Mother. Why would you bother to eat at home?”

Zhang Xiaohui frowned.

“If you wanted food, you could just bring Sister and look for your rich friend in town. He could give you so much money and take care of you. I believe that he will not mind another meal.”

Her words sounded very unpleasant.

Zhang Xiaohui did not want to come back. The Qing River Brigade was in the countryside. This place was totally incomparable to the town.

However, both w.a.n.g Guozhu and she did not have money left. w.a.n.g Guozhu had not received any income as it was not his pay-day yet. She spent all the money on hand. They could not help but have to return home.

They did not even get to eat dinner in the town. She felt upset now.

The feeling of spending freely was addictive. She felt that she could not live anymore without spending.

She was irritated and said impatiently, “I'm ordering you to cook dinner now. Why do you have so much nonsense to say?”

Gu Qingyao sneered and did not reply to her.

She then spoke to Wen Ruyu and Gu Conghua, “Grandma, Grandpa, hot water is ready. You can take a bath and sleep. It's late now.”

Gu Conghua and Wen Ruyu's expressions were very unpleasant. Their reputation was ruined when such things happened in the family. However, they could not do anything to Zhang Xiaohui.

Wen Ruyu pitied her youngest son. He had to bear with such humiliation.

Gu Conghua took a glance at his wife and sighed. He then went to the kitchen to take hot water for her to bathe.

After they took the hot water, Gu Qingyao went to the kitchen and was about to lock the door. Though there was almost no food in the kitchen, Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing might take the food if they were really hungry.

She did not want them to eat any food here.

Gu Ruoqing raged when she saw Gu Qingyao planning to lock the door.

“Gu Qingyao! What are you doing!”

She immediately dashed forward and grabbed her ponytail. Gu Qingyao raged and tilted her head so that she would be hurt by Gu Ruoqing. She then grabbed Gu Ruoqing's wrist to stop her movement. If she did not stop her, it would be so painful once her hair was dragged by her.

Gu Qingyao's other hand slapped Gu Ruoqing at the next second.

“Let go!”

Piak!

“Ah…”

She slapped with full force. Gu Ruoqing was not prepared and fell onto the ground. She was dazed.

Zhang Xiaohui was not prepared for it and stared at Gu Ruoqing falling onto the ground.

“Qingqing!”

Zhang Xiaohui realized what just happened. She screamed and dashed over, trying to slap Gu Qingyao.

“What do you want to do? Stop!”

Gu Conghua and Wen Ruyu came out of the room as they heard the noise. Gu Qingyao was alone outside. Both of them were worried for her. But the moment they came out, they saw Zhang Xiaohui was about to slap Gu Qingyao.

She was their only granddaughter and was very obedient. They both loved her and could not bear Zhang Xiaohui trying to slap her.

“Stop right now!”

Wen Ruyu and Gu Conghua ran forward and grabbed Zhang Xiaohui.

“Let go! You two old b.a.s.t.a.r.ds. Let me go…”

Zhang Xiaohui had been living a good life for the past few days. She felt she had become another person, and looked down on Wen Ruyu and Gu Conghua.

She had always looked down on their ident.i.ty. Now, she totally discriminated against them when such a thing happened. She would do whatever she wanted to do!
