Chapter 8 – Handsome but Useless Gu Ye (2)

“I’ve never seen you harming your own daughter like this, am I still your biological daughter?”

Xu Bilian’s voice was choked, she was extremely aggrieved. He Jihong immediately felt sorry, and quickly comforted her, “You have no conscience, if I don’t love you, you think I love Chu Qiao? What kind of life did you live, and what kind of life did Chu Qiao live, You can see it with your eyes.”

“Then why don’t you let Chu Qiao marry Gu Ye? Why did you let her marry Jianshe ge? You know clearly that I like Gu Jianshe.”

Xu Bilian snorted, at the thought that Chu Qiao, this country bumpkin was going to marry her sweetheart, her heart was burning. Gu Jianshe belonged to her, how could Chu Qiao this country bumpkin be worthy for him?

He Jihong frowned, her heart pounding in panic, she couldn’t tell this silly girl clearly. Gu Jianshe was not a good match. Chu Qiao would definitely have a bad life when she married. This silly girl wanted to let go of her good life and seek troubles, pissing her off.

Divorce was impossible.  One day, she would have a good chat with Gu Ye and let him be treated if he was sick. Now that medical science has developed, men’s problems could be cured. She still didn’t believe that Gu Ye’s health had problems. Maybe it was just a small problem, he just needed to go to the hospital, take some medicine, and it would be alright.

“I go to see Chu Qiao, it’s already half a day and there is no movement. It won’t be serious, right?”

He Jihong didn’t want to talk to her silly daughter anymore. She changed the topic, and got up to see her stepdaughter. Her stepdaughter had a heatstroke yesterday, and fainted under the family building.  Fortunately, there were people who saw her. After poured ten drops of water, and Guasha1 She was rescued. But she had a fever again last night, and she still had a fever when He Jihong went to work this morning. As a kind and generous stepmother, He Jihong naturally had to take care of her stepdaughter.

-Gua Sha

1刮莎 Gua sha (kerokan in Indonesia), is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) practice in which a tool is used to scrape people’s skin in order to produce light red spot. Practitioners believe that gua sha releases unhealthy bodily matter from blood stasis within sore, tired, stiff or injured muscle areas to stimulate new oxygenated blood flow to the areas, thus promoting metabolic cell repair, regeneration, healing and recovery.

“This bitch is lucky, she’s definitely not going to die.”

Xu Bilian snorted coldly, and sneered.

“You still have the face to say this? Yesterday, you made Chu Qiao run back and forth five or six times. At the hottest noon, you still didn’t let her take a breath, just for a piece of clothing. Fortunately, nothing happened. Otherwise, your mother’s reputation would be ruined by you!”

He Jihong got angry when she said this, and her tone became more serious. Although she didn’t like Chu Qiao, her stepdaughter, she still needed to take care of her reputation. So that outsider could never pick out any mistakes. There were many ways to handle this stepdaughter, so there was no need to use stupid tricks.
