Chapter 1129: Fifth Cousin Is Really Ruthless (5)

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Society had changed. In the past, everyone’s money mostly came from their salaries. Only people with jobs were respected.

But things seemed different now.

More and more people were making their fortunes in business. Also, more things could be obtained without coupons. All that was needed was money.

After staying in the capital for so long, he realized that if he wanted a carefree life like he had in the past, he would not be able to maintain his lifestyle even if he had the most respectable job and worked hard at it.

He needed a lot of money, enough money!

What should he do?

He went home for dinner. Zhou Ping had made a very simple meal.

Two dishes of salted vegetables and a dish of cabbage braised with tofu.

Gu Jinxuan’s mouth twitched when he saw his dinner. “Surely not? Are we having this for dinner?”

Although many people still had hard lives, very few families like his ate like that.

He thought about Second Uncle’s family. Every meal was nutritious, with a mix of meat and vegetables.

Especially with two pregnant women like Gu Qingyao and Ji Mingyue staying there, there had been many nourishing dishes.

Often, there was supper and dessert.

Gu Qingyao and Ji Mingyue were bored and liked to snack. So the food in the Gu house had been excellent.

Zhou Ping said angrily, “Be glad you have anything to eat. Do you think this is the Gu house? Our family is so poor. Do you want it or not?”

Gu Jinxuan was already in a bad mood, but his mood worsened when Zhou Ping say that, and he flared up.

He snapped back.

“I doubt it! Our family can support the entire Zhou family. How can we be poor?”

“You…”

Zhou Ping had been very miserable lately. She had no money, and her family was still like that. They called her almost every day, saying that her older brother and oldest nephew had been locked up. The Zhou family had been utterly humiliated, and everyone was mocking them.

She was infuriated.

She could not accept that something so humiliating had happened to her family.

The problem was that all this was caused by her husband and children. This made Zhou Ping even more hostile towards this family.

She had slaved for this family for so many years, and given birth to four sons. She had worked so hard to bring them up, but in the end, none of them considered her feelings. She felt that she had given birth to so many sons in vain.

“Gu Jinxuan, don’t go overboard. I’m your mother. How can you speak to me like that?”

Gu Jinxuan really did not have a very good temper.

He had been a tyrant since he was young. With his older brother holding the fort, it had not been necessary for him to mature. He had never been a good-tempered person.

His mother had made so many errors but still did not restrain herself. Her attitude had not changed either.

Gu Jinxuan said angrily, “If you weren’t my mother, you wouldn’t even have a chance of remaining in this family. Mother, don’t go overboard. It’s true that we’re your sons, but we are not your punching bags. The incompetence of the Zhou family is not our fault.”

“You…”

Zhou Ping was fuming. She was utterly disappointed that her favorite son could say something so heartless.

In the past, she felt that her oldest son was too soft, and only knew how to dote on his own brothers and cousins, but not on his Zhou family cousins. He was much nicer to that bitch, Gu Qingyao, than he was to the cousins on her side of the family.

Her oldest son disobeyed her.

The two younger ones also adored their older cousin, and their relationship was beyond that of mere cousins.. This made Zhou Ping so angry that she had pinned all her hope on Gu Jinxuan.
