Chương 177: Chapter 180: Bad words

Tác giả: Gu Rong Rong Dịch máy

Huang Meixiang quickly added, "Madam, our Lili has never had a boyfriend or been in a relationship. She's still a pure and innocent girl. It's a pity that our Lili isn't as lucky as Ruochu. She married Huo Nanchen and has such a good mother-in-law."

How could Mrs. Huo not understand such a hint?

Gu Ruochu did not know why her mother-in-law would suddenly talk to Huang Meixiang about such matters. However, she did not panic. She just sat by the side and listened.

Mrs. Huo's smile was amiable. Her aura as a noble lady was very powerful. Although she looked friendly, she was also very imposing.

"It's time to get a boyfriend at your age. Look at your cousin. She married into the Huo family before she was even 20. Lili, you should have made some plans a long time ago."

Gu Li seemed to be a little shy, but the jealousy in her heart towards Gu Ruochu had deepened.

She had married into the Huo family just after her 18th birthday.

"I recently heard from a friend of mine that she has a relative. Her son is a civil servant, and he has just graduated from university. His life is quite stable. I think that he would be a good match for Lili. They are of the same social class and should be a good match for each other. Lili, what do you think?"

Mrs. Huo's words were full of sarcasm. She was mocking her for not yet getting married into a wealthy family. All she needed to do was to marry an ordinary person.

Her words poured a bucket of cold water over them. The mother and daughter could not look at each other anymore.

She was clearly accusing Gu Li of having a low status, and not being worthy of the Huo family. She was telling her not to dream of marrying into the Huo family like her cousin.

What right did Gu Ruochu have to marry Huo Nanchen? But even if Lili couldn't have Huo Nanchen, didn't Mrs. Huo still have two other sons?

The more Gu Li's mother thought about it, the more she felt an imbalance in her heart. She was not willing to accept this.

Mrs. Huo saw their reaction and politely said, "You are relatives of Ruochu. This is your first time visiting. You can stay for lunch today. I'll get the chauffeur to send you home."

This was the way of a wealthy lady. Gu Ruochu did not say a word, but she was trying her best to hold back her laughter.

This mother and daughter pair had been slapped in the face. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was a humiliation. Gu Qiang had earned some money and had become a wealthy businessman. Their family status had also risen, and they were now able to go out in public with boundless glory.

However, who would have thought that they would be treated like ants by the Huo family? They had been slapped in the face by Mrs. Huo. This caused the mother and daughter pair, who were extremely proud of themselves, to lose all face.

"Mother, Mrs. Gu must still have a lot of things to do. Let's not force her to stay, shall we?" Gu Ruochu looked very considerate.

Huang Meixiang had wanted to stay for lunch when she heard Mrs. Huo's offer. However, she gnashed her teeth after hearing Gu Ruochu's words. She could only force a smile on her face. "Yes, we'd better not disturb you."

"All right, I'll get the chauffeur to send you back."

Mrs. Huo sat up from the sofa and politely sent the guests off.

"Ruochu, can you send me and your sister off?"

From an angle that Mrs. Huo could not see, Huang Meixiang glared at Gu Ruochu with an extremely malicious gaze. Her warning was full of meaning.

"Sure, Mrs. Gu, this way please."

Huang Meixiang saw that Gu Ruochu had been "intimidated" and immediately bid farewell to Mrs. Huo.

Gu Li had been humiliated to the point of losing all her face today. Now, she wanted to vent her anger on Gu Ruochu. As the three of them crossed the corridor, the mother-daughter pair revealed their true colors.

"Gu Ruochu, did you speak ill of me in front of Mrs. Huo? Otherwise, how could she hate me so much!" Gu Li angrily pointed at Gu Ruochu's nose.

"When did I speak ill of you?"

"You still deny it!"
