Chapter 295: Tragic Life After Marriage (4)

“Young Aunt! Young Aunt!”

They had agreed to meet today and dig for wild vegetables together. Mo Chengrui had brought his younger brother and the moment they saw Gu Qingyao, they began yelling.

The Gu family children laughed when they saw them.

Only six-year-old Gu Jinzhi smiled wickedly when he saw the two Mo family children. “Hey, you two, since you address my older cousin as your Young Aunt, then let’s hear you call me Uncle!”

Gu Qingyao: “…”

Gu Fangting: “…”

Mo Chengrui’s face darkened as he faced Gu Jinrui, who was a year older than him.

But Gu Fangting felt that this was not enough. “Then you should also address me as Aunt?”

Mo Chengrui: “…”

Mo Chengxu: “…”

Gu Qingyao was highly amused by the children. Chen Feng and his younger sister also joined in and everyone chatted as they dug for wild vegetables.

Coincidentally, they saw Gu Ruoqing among the crowd.

Besides Gu Qingyao, everyone was surprised by Gu Ruoqing’s appearance!

Although she looked much fatter, she was extremely haggard. She looked very strange as her clothes were extremely old and patched.

The others, who did not know Gu Ruoqing’s circumstances, thought that she had really grown fatter. After all, she had followed her mother when the latter married and moved to the city. Everyone in the brigade knew about this, and many of them had been green with envy!

Chen Honghua was one of them.

When she found out that Gu Ruoqing had moved to the city, she wanted to toady up to her. But Gu Ruoqing seldom came back. Now that she was back, Chen Honghua immediately went over.

“Qing Qing, why are you back in the village digging for wild vegetables? You’re a city girl now. Your father is doing so well. Why do you need to come back to the village to suffer? Look, you’re so much fatter! How fortunate you are!”

Chen Honghua looked enviously at her, but Gu Qingyao’s mouth twitched.

Gu Ruoqing was not fatter. She was bloated from starvation!

Hehe!

It looked as if life with the Wang family was truly terrible!

Gu Ruoqing continued to look down. She really wished that no one would notice her. But she had no choice. She knew almost everyone who was digging for wild vegetables on the hillside.

She had just avoided a few people who had talked to her. She was terrified that others would recognize her. She had not expected to be so unlucky. After lying low for a short while, she had run into the person she wished to avoid the most – Gu Qingyao.

She was not fatter. She was bloated from starvation!

Life in the city was not as good as she had imagined it to be. In fact, it was awful.

Her grandparents did not do any work. They ordered her around all day, making her clean the house, do the laundry and cook. She had to serve the entire family.

Her mother took pity on her and refused to allow her to do all that. But her grandparents had gotten angry and told her father that a girl should do the housework. She was a big girl now, and they could not possibly support a freeloader.

She had angrily asked why her grandparents did not have to do anything?

But her father had given her a vicious scolding. He said that her grandparents were old and had suffered greatly in the past. Now that they were old, they should enjoy life. It was only right that she should be filial towards them.

Her mother had pitied her and tried to help her. But her grandparents refused to allow her mother to lift a finger. They said that her mother was carrying a son for the Wang Family. She must not hurt their grandson.

All the chores in the household had fallen on her alone.

There was not enough to eat and her grandparents still had to eat fine grain. Her mother was pregnant and also needed to eat fine grain. As for her, she had not had a single mouthful of fine grain since she had followed her mother to the Wang family.

Even the portion of coarse grain she received was pitifully small. She only had a sorghum bun every day. And now, she did not even receive that.

She had not eaten for two days.
