Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At the hospital, Gu Zi arrived carrying a thermos. She opened it to reveal a homemade crucian carp soup and some side dishes she had prepared for her parents to enjoy.
Mr. Lin expressed his desire to Gu Zi that he wanted to return home. He was not accustomed to the hospital environment and felt uneasy staying there. The fact that he was not earning money but instead spending a significant amount on hospital bills was unsettling for him.
He had spent his entire life laboring, providing for his family through the work of his own hands. Now, the inability to work and be active was terrifying to him. He believed that the sooner he was discharged, the sooner he would recover and be able to return to his normal routine.
Gu Zi comforted him, saying, “Stay a few more days. We need to ensure there are no other issues before you leave. Don’t worry about the money. Lin Cheng is working, and Su Shen and I are here too. Even if you don’t work in the future, it’s okay. Besides, if you leave the hospital before you’re fully recovered, it will cost even more. Mom, don’t you agree?”
Mrs. Lin, catching her daughter’s gaze, quickly agreed.
Just as they were enjoying their conversation, a commotion could be heard outside the ward.
Soon, the ward door was pushed open and a group of people walked in. Gu Shan and Zhang Mei were at the front, acting as if they were the righteous heads of the family. Lin Miao followed closely behind, a smirk playing on her lips as if she was enjoying a good show. Lin Laoyao, his wife, and Old Lady Lin trailed behind.
“Gu Zi, you’re really here. Let’s talk outside,” Gu Shan said as he approached Gu Zi.
Gu Zi looked at him with a slight frown, his self-righteous demeanor irking her. She calmly placed the freshly served soup in front of Mr. Lin before responding, “Uncle Gu, what do you want to discuss? Just say it.”
Su Le was startled by the sudden influx of people and rushed into Gu Zits arms. Gu Zi picked her up and patted her back to soothe her.
Gu Shan stared at Gu Zi for a moment before bluntly stating, “I intended to save you some face, but since you don’t seem to mind, I’ll just say it. Since ancient times, there has been no rule that a newlywed woman should be the head of the household. It’s a sign of lack of upbringing. Which woman doesn’t become the head of the household after enduring years as a daughter-in-law? You should let Su Shen call the police and settle this matter privately.”
Gu Shan believed that such family disputes should be resolved privately, so as to save face for everyone involved.
There are always some conflicts in a family, especially in large ones. Even if there are contradictions beneath the surface, everyone can tolerate them, right?
