Chapter 391: Chapter 417: Money for Buying Three Golds

"Do you think our family has no money, that you have to pay yourself? Isn’t this looking down on us?" Wang Guihua’s face drooped, devoid of any joy. Her words were even more harsh.

Lately, her mood had been terrible. Since Yang Hongying argued with her, she realized this daughter-in-law had become increasingly formidable. Whenever she pointed out a flaw, Yang Hongying immediately went into battle mode, often clashing with her. Especially on matters concerning the child, she wouldn’t budge an inch.

Previously, no matter how much nitpicking she did, Yang Hongying would endure it and say nice things. But now, she didn’t hold back, often talking back. Either Jun Tao turned a blind eye or stood by his wife, saying conciliatory words, supporting his wife in the battle of wits and courage against her.

After several unproductive visits, always leaving with chest pains from anger, Wang Guihua simply stopped going.

Now, with Gu Junming coming over, someone she didn’t even like, she naturally seized the opportunity to make things difficult.

Gu Junming, of course, knew she was stirring up trouble, but he calmly said, "Not at all. I have money in hand, so I just took it out."

"How much do you look down on me? Even though I’m not your biological mother, we’re still family. Buying gold jewelry for the daughter-in-law, how could I not pitch in? Do you have to use a bankbook to slap me in the face? Look at your son, how detached he is." She said as she looked at Gu Zishan. Gu Zishan appeared calm, revealing nothing.

She sighed again, "Fine, I’ll hold onto it for you. Wait until Sun Chan comes tomorrow, and then give it to her." She said, reaching for the bankbook.

Gu Junming’s mouth curved into a mocking smile.

Gu Zishan glared at his wife angrily, "Return the money to Gu Junming immediately! If you’re so filled with motherly love, then let it be our money."

Wang Guihua was shocked. She was only joking! She didn’t really intend to pay!

Just as she was about to speak, Gu Junming retrieved the bankbook, "If that’s how it is, it’s up to you. I’m under a lot of financial pressure myself right now. Since you’re footing the bill, I graciously accept. Why make things so estranged, causing you such dissatisfaction."

Wang Guihua was completely dumbfounded, never expecting Gu Junming to play such a trick!

She only intended to say a few sarcastic remarks to make her husband see that Gu Junming never considered the Gu Family as family and only thought about the Wang Family. Who knew Gu Junming would actually reach for the money?

Gu Zishan nodded slightly on the side and said, "It’s only right for the family to help out at your wedding. Wang Guihua, go and bring down two thousand. There’s not much else we can help with on this marriage front, but giving some money can also express your intention."

Wang Guihua was speechless, her face turning green, and her heart was on fire.

All these years, she had been saving the money for her son Gu Juntao. How could she give it to Gu Junming, and just like that, two thousand? Isn’t this eating away at me?

Gu Junming used to ignore her, never asking for anything. What’s happening now? It must be that new daughter-in-law instigating him! What should she do now!

Wang Guihua said in difficulty, "I do have it, but it’s all in the bank. If I withdraw it now, I’d probably lose over a hundred in interest. How about this: you use your money first, and when the term is up, I’ll give it to you. How about that?"
