NovelEnglishChapter 1233: Gu Junhui
Ah Zu was comforted by Jiang Yao’s words. “Sister, you’re right! I heard from Xiao Xing that you’ve studied for many years? As expected of an intellectual, you’re really different when it comes to comforting people. I was afraid that you’d laugh at me. I haven’t been to school at all. Don’t laugh at me, please.”
Ah Zu smiled at Jiang Yao when he saw her gentle smile; she did not appear to look down on him. “Sister, don’t be sad. Even though your grandmother isn’t as nice as my grandmother, you have a good aunt and an even better husband—Changshu.”
Jiang Yao and Lu Xingzhi were disguised as Gu Junhui and Gu Changshu. Ah Zu must have heard about their stories from Xiao Xing.
Ah Zu agreed to take them under his wings because their experiences were too similar to his, especially Gu Changshu’s. He even felt sorry for them.
Gu Junhui and Gu Changshu had a tragic and pitiful story.
When Jiang Yao first saw the information, she could not help but sigh for a long time. She felt sorry for Gu Junhui and Gu Changshu.
However, even though Gu Junhui and Gu Changshu were both pitiful, at the same time, they were fortunate. Just as Ah Zu had said, Gu Junhui had an aunt who loved her very much, and Gu Changshu had been in prison for more than nine years. However, Gu Junhui refused to leave him.
Gu Junhui and Gu Changshu were neighbors in the same town. Gu Changshu was nine years older than Gu Junhui. When they got together, it was a weird relationship between an older man and a much younger woman.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOne could tell that Gu Junhui’s parents had received some form of education when one learned her name—it was different from someone in the countryside. Gu Junhui’s father had named her; they were very happy when she was born.
Unfortunately, their happier times were tragically cut short. When Gu Junhui was only two years old, her father died in an accident while on a business trip. Her father’s death caused Gu Junhui’s life to be plunged into disaster.
Gu Junhui’s grandmother was a superstitious old woman; she was unreasonable and preferred boys over girls. Gu Junhui’s father was her eldest son and her most beloved child. He was also the most promising child among her children. Gu Junhui’s father got married two years later than his two younger brothers. He had waited for Gu Junhui’s mother to return from her studies, so the old woman was not very happy with the arrangement. Finally, her daughter-in-law bore them a daughter, and so the old woman had always been blind to Gu Junhui’s existence.
After the accident, the family was paid a large amount of compensation. The old woman was afraid that Gu Junhui’s mother would take the money, so she said she was a jinx. She forced Gu Junhui’s mother out of the house and refused to let her take her two-year-old daughter with her because a large portion of the compensation belonged to the child.
Gu Junhui’s mother had no choice. No one in the countryside was willing to help her, so she could only leave by herself.
The old woman took the money but did not think of leaving any for Gu Junhui. The first thing she did with the money was to renovate the old house grandly. Then, she and her two remaining sons began to squander it.
However, Gu Junhui did not get to enjoy those benefits at all. She was bullied by her cousins, aunts, and uncles all day long. Her aunt, who lived in the city, felt sorry for her. So, she brought the young Gu Junhui to the city and provided her with education, food, and clothing. She allowed her to live like her other cousins.
