Chapter 76 – There’s no peace at home (1)

Chu Yuanzhi glanced at his daughter with dissatisfaction, but Chu Qiao didn’t pay attention to him, and she even rolled her eyes. Chu Yuanzhi was so pissed to the point he also wanted to faint. His daughter was really too difficult to control now. He really missed the previous Qiao Qiao who was so soft and sweet like the glutinous rice balls.

-Chinese Glutinous rice balls / Tang Yuan 

Is a traditional Chinese dessert made of glutinous rice shaped into a ball that is served in a hot broth or syrup. They come in varying sizes, anything between a marble to a ping pong ball, and are sometimes stuffed with filling.

Gu Jianshe stood there stunned. He never expected that it would become like this. He didn’t even eat a bite of dinner, but he was full of anger.

“Why aren’t you leaving yet?”

Chu Qiao glared at him, her eyes said why was he still standing here so shamelessly? His face was really so thick.

With a breath of anger in his throat, Gu Jianshe gritted his teeth and left with a dark face full of anger. Even if Chu Qiao was so beautiful like a fairy, he would not want to marry her anymore. He could not afford such a rude and vulgar woman.

However, Chu Qiao’s beautiful face appeared in his mind again. Even when she was cursing people, she was as beautiful as a fairy. Just by looking at her, it made his heart keep beating so hard and uncontrollable. So Gu Jianshe changed his mind again.

In fact, as long as Chu Qiao was a little soft and obedient, he would not be so angry. It should be because she was jealous of the relationship between Xu Bilian and him, only then she became so angry.

Such women, they were just small minded. But being jealous also showed that Chu Qiao had him in her heart. Gu Jianshe’s mood became better and even felt a little proud.

He had always felt that he was particularly excellent since he was a child. His appearance was so majestic and graceful, just like a handsome man in poetry. He was also talented, capable, had a good family background, and broad-minded. Such an outstanding man like him, how could it be possible for Chu Qiao to not like him?

It must be because she was so jealous that she became so angry. It was definitely because of that.

The anger in Gu Jianshe’s heart dissipated immediately, the corner of his mouth also kept smiling. He had to handle Xu Bilian’s side first, then he would coax Chu Qiao properly.

After all, women were very easy to coax, he had many experiences for that. After coaxing Chu Qiao well, then they would get married. There was no need to hold a wedding party. He was married for the second time, so there was no need to make such a fuss, and Chu Qiao would definitely be able to understand. October was the harvest season, and it was also a good and auspicious day for obtaining the certificate. So it was decided like that.

Gu Jianshe was in a good mood and his footsteps became relaxed and lively. He rode back to his parents’ home, and told his mother Zhu Yuzhen about marrying Chu Qiao, he also said that he would get the certificate in October.

Zhu Yuzhen was also quite satisfied with that. She never thought about whether Chu Qiao was willing or not. In her opinion, anyone who was able to marry her outstanding and capable son, it would be a blessing in eighteen lifetimes. How could it be possible for Chu Qiao to be unwilling?

After Chu Qiao got angry, the air pressure in the Chu family’s house dropped to zero. He Jihong always kept a straight face every day. She looked at Chu Qiao sideways, she only regarded Chu Qiao as an eyesore. Chu Qiao just pretended that she didn’t see it. Anyway, she would be able to go to work after another three days. 

But she felt it was very strange. She was wondering why Xu Bilian hadn’t made any trouble yet. Was she not pregnant?

But in the previous life, Xu Bilian was already pregnant at this time. And it should not be possible to change in this life. After another two days, there was finally a movement from Xu Bilian’s side.

He Jihong was no longer in the mood to squint at Chu Qiao anymore, because Xu Bilian had moved back to live in the house, and she also said that she wanted to divorce Gu Ye.

“I have already told my waigong1 that I am pregnant with Gu Jianshe’s child. This is the inspection report. The doctor said that I can’t have an operation. Mom, I have to marry Jianshe ge2. Even if you beat me to death, I still want to marry him!”

1waigong (外公) : maternal grandfather.

2ge (哥) : older brother; elder brother, (honorific) term of address for a male person of the same age or older; an intimate term of address for a man.

Xu Bilian took out the checklist and threw it in front of He Jihong. She looked like she was going to die. Gu Ye had already issued an ultimatum, and she didn’t want to drag it any longer. The child in her belly couldn’t afford it.
