Chapter 7 Gu Jingming is my son-in-law!
The women in the residential area’s eyes widened in astonishment. What surprised them even more was that Gu Jingming opened the trunk and took out a bunch of gifts. Most of these gifts had outer packaging, and they had seen those brands of cigarettes and alcohol many times in the supply and marketing cooperative, they were things they couldn’t afford even after getting paid. They didn’t expect this man to be so generous on his first visit, buying so many things.
Gu Jingming was carrying too many things, one of the handles didn’t hold, and the things in the bag fell out. It looked like a very ordinary big red plastic bag, but the things inside were anything but ordinary. Friendship Snow Cream, Clam Oil, Palace Lantern Almond Honey, and Chunjuan Astragalus Paste rolled out. Gu Jingming quickly stretched out his foot to stop them, Ye Qingtao quickly picked them up and put them back in the bag. What they saw was just the tip of the iceberg, and they were already envious. How much did all this stuff cost? Their entire month’s salary wouldn’t be enough to buy a few of these items, let alone buy so many at once. What kind of luck did Ye Qingtao have? Wasn’t she trying to jump off a building for Lu Yunchuan a while ago? How come she’s now hooked up with Gu Jingming? This man surely doesn’t know about Ye Qingtao’s suicide attempts for Lu Yunchuan, right? Some people curled their lips, feeling a little uncomfortable.
Others couldn’t help themselves and said sarcastically, “Oh! Didn’t our Qingtao like Lu Yunchuan a while ago? How come she’s changed her mind now?” “Young people’s feelings are fickle, they like this one today and that one tomorrow, no wonder Lu Yunchuan didn’t want to date you!” “You probably don’t know, our Qingtao likes Lu Yunchuan, don’t waste your efforts, even if you give gifts, it’s useless, it’s better to…” Song Jiaying’s voice obviously weakened, and then she lowered her head and whispered, “It’s better to give them to me, it’s such a waste to give them to Ye Qingtao, that little slut!” Standing at the back of the crowd, Song Jiaying thought that she was far away and her voice was low, so no one would hear her. She didn’t know that Gu Jingming had been in the army for many years, often going out on missions, and had very sharp ears.
He could hear even the faintest sounds, let alone these sounds that included Ye Qingtao’s name, which were like amplified noise to him. “Comrade, is your mirror very small?” Gu Jingming stepped forward and suddenly spoke, Song Jiaying was startled and looked up at Gu Jingming secretly, he was so handsome. She used to think that Lu Yunchuan was the most handsome man in the whole residential area, now she realized that she was too narrow-minded. Song Jiaying blushed and asked softly, “How do you know?” Could it be that he wants to give me a big mirror?
Song Jiaying was still thinking happily, and she secretly glanced at Gu Jingming again, her face was even redder than before. Unexpectedly, Gu Jingming’s words directly chilled her to the bone. “I was wondering why you didn’t know your face was big, so it turns out your mirror is too small.” “What do you mean by that?” Song Jiaying didn’t quite understand, Gu Jingming coldly added, “I’m going to my wife’s house, of course I’m going to bring gifts, what are you? Why would I give you the gifts I bought? How big of a face do you have to say such things, don’t you think so?” Gu Jingming suddenly raised his voice and asked the crowd.
Some people were startled and nodded reflexively. When they realized what was happening, they found that Song Jiaying’s face was red as a monkey’s butt. Zhu Guihua was originally going to go over and tear her apart, but Gu Jingming directly protected her. She rolled up her sleeves, suddenly feeling excited. And that wasn’t all, Gu Jingming added another blow. “A slut is just a slut, she even dares to scold our Qingtao. How slutty you are, your mirror is too small, you don’t know to take a pee and look at yourself?” “Could it be that your family is so poor that you can’t even afford water? Can’t you see what you look like?” Gu Jingming put on a serious face and spoke a whole bunch of words, not only Ye Qingtao was stunned, but the other onlookers were also confused. Song Jiaying’s face became redder and redder, and then she covered her face and burst into tears.
This man was not at all gentle with women, if she stayed here, she would be humiliating herself, so she covered her face and ran away crying. After Song Jiaying left, Gu Jingming put on a serious face again, Ye Qingtao picked up the things on the ground, she wanted to help carry them, but Gu Jingming forcefully took them over. “Give it to me, this bag is so heavy, it will hurt your hands later.” Gu Jingming’s voice was incredibly gentle, the neighbors standing at the door saw him change his face faster than turning a page, they were simply amazed. Ye Qingtao looked at him with surprise, this man was too double-standard, but what could she do, she liked it!
Ye Qingtao was originally quick-tempered and couldn’t stand to be wronged, just now when Song Jiaying scolded her, not only Zhu Guihua was ready to fight, she also wanted to fight several times. She was not the original owner, she would endure grievances, but would fight for Lu Yunchuan. She would only fight for herself! Whoever dared to provoke her, she would deal with them! As a result, before they could even make a move, Gu Jingming perfectly resolved the situation. Ye Qingtao secretly marveled in her heart, and she stood there admiring him.
Zhu Guihua quickly stepped forward and pulled her. “Jingming has already come in, why are you still standing there? Do you want to watch the show?” Zhu Guihua grabbed Ye Qingtao’s wrist and dragged her into the house. “That, Zhu Guihua, we’re all neighbors, you have a guest, why don’t you introduce him to everyone?” Someone called out to her as Zhu Guihua was about to close the door. Someone took the lead, and the others were also very active, they asked questions in a flurry, all of them were very interested in Gu Jingming.
“Yeah, yeah, this young man looks tall and handsome, with an extraordinary temperament, he must be no ordinary person, right?” “He brought so many gifts on his first visit, and he even drove here, his family must be very rich, right?” Some people asked loudly, while others whispered. “I think Ye Qingtao just likes to marry rich people, she just wants to live the life of a rich wife, before it was Lu Yunchuan, now it’s this young man.”
“At such a young age, she’s not learning anything good, she doesn’t know to work hard, she’s just waiting to marry a rich man, don’t learn from her!” “Don’t worry, rich people definitely won’t like Ye Qingtao, bringing gifts to her door doesn’t necessarily mean proposing, maybe he’s just playing with her.” There were many people and many gossips in the residential area, and there were many gossipy women. Ye Qingtao’s last incident was a big deal, everyone knew about it, now that Gu Jingming came to her door, it was normal for people to gossip behind her back. These voices were neither loud nor soft, Zhu Guihua naturally heard them clearly.
She was so angry that she gnashed her teeth, she wanted to rush forward and tear them apart, and finally squeezed out a few words from between her teeth. “Gu Jingming is my son-in-law!”
