Gu Qingyao scoffed. She walked towards her room and did not bother to talk to the two of them.

Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing still wanted to say something but they heard the sound of the door closed. They turned around and saw that Gu Yunshen brought everything back to his room and locked the door.

Zhang Xiaohui: “…”

She stared at the door for a while but still did not ask Gu Yunshen to open the door. She went back to Gu Ruoqing's room and slept together with her.

Gu Qingyao witnessed what was going on outside from her room. She understood that her father was suffering and disgusted by this kind of woman.

However, he could not just ditch her.

More accurately speaking, her father did not want to take the risk now.

Zhang Xiaohui was just an unreasonable rascal. Her entire family was like that as well.

The Zhang family were all poor farmers but the Gu family were landowners. Their ident.i.ty was too sensitive in this day and age. Anything happened would be the Gu family's fault.

No one would care about a landowner's thoughts in this age. If her father wanted to divorce with Zhang Xiaohui and she got nowhere to go. She would definitely find more troubles without the good supply from the Gu family.

No one cared about what she was going to do but the Gu family could not bear with that.

Both of her grandparents were old. If anything happened, their lives might even be in danger.

There was no such thing as reasoning in this age.

The Gu family was not short of money as both the Gu family and her grandma's Wen family had hidden golds as secret savings. If they exchanged the gold for high-priced grain, the whole family would never starve to death at least.

Keeping Zhang Xiaohui in the Gu family just cost the Gu family more money only.

But no matter what was going to happen, they needed to wait until this period pa.s.sed.

She understood what was her father's concerns and she did not want anything to happen to her family. However, she did not want to wait either!

Her grandparents had five children. The oldest and the second oldest both went to the army and had good ranks now. Though they were not able to be promoted further due to the family's ident.i.ty, they were able to sustain their lives.

Their children were also in the army and had good achievements at young ages.

The third oldest son settled down in the city with his family.

Her father was the youngest and stayed in the countryside to take care of her grandparents. He helped to farm and feed the livestock. He also picked different herbs everywhere to treat patients.

His whole life was held up after Zhang Xiaohui stuck to him.

Now she was reborn and she had everything in her hands. She would definitely allow her family to live a good life. Zhang Xiaohui and her daughter were too troublesome and they must be chased away.

And there was her aunt. She suffered from many hards.h.i.+ps and Gu Qingyao would take care of her so that her grandparents would be relieved.

She stared at Gu Ruoqing's room and recalled everything they had done in her previous life. Gu Qingyao was determined that she must chase them out as soon as possible.

And of course, chasing them out and ensuring that her own family would be safe.

Gu Qingyao took a basin of hot water that her father boiled. But she did not use the water and instead, put it into her inters.p.a.ce.

She entered her living inters.p.a.ce and had a bath with the hot water before she slept.

Gu Qingyao woke up before the sky even brightened up on the next morning.

She agreed to follow Mo Beihan to the town today. He would definitely leave very early so she needed to get up early as well to prepare.
