Chapter 7 Overwhelmed by the Baby "Tang Yao,I have toleratedyou for so manyyears. Don"t use the kindness of Shaoze to destorythe next generationof my family. Shaoze is my only son,and I’m looking forward to having grandchildren. How could you stay inmy family if you can’t have any baby?"
Mrs. Gu said with anger.
Tang Yaoclenchedherfist and herchest slightly heaved.
The thing about not having a babyhad always made her feel inferiorin the Gu’s family.
She hadtried everything in the past few years,and the doctor said that her body hadno problems.
Gu shaozealso went to examine,still no problem.
There was nothing wrong about their body,so that only meant their fate with their children hadnot come yet.
"Shaoze’s mother,Yaohas alreadybeen takingChinese medicine. I promise that shewill be pregnant soon. This time the medicine was given by an oldfamousChinese medicine doctor. He has curedmany people,and helped them have twins." Tang mothersaid obsequiously.
Mrs. Gu snorted atthe words of Tang’s mother.
If having Chinese medicine was effective,then Tang Yao would have been pregnant for many time after marrying to Shaoze for so many years.
"Tang Yao,I am not a ruthless person. In the past few years,you have sacrificed a lot for Shaoze. As long as you are willing to divorce,I will not treat you badly in the division of property. I will even appropriately arrange your weak family. "
Mrs. Gu took out the divorce agreement that had already been prepared. "As long as you sign a name on it,I can guarantee that you will be satisfiedwith the money you get."
Tang’smother rushed to get the divorce agreement,carefully read it,and herface suddenly turned paleand thenred. “Shaoze’s mom,this young couple havegonethrough a long way in these years,how can they just simply divorce? I don’tthink that Shaoze would agree. Let’s just leave it for them to discuss.”
If Tang Yao and Gu shaozeare divorced,how couldthey ever live a comfortable life like this?
Compared with the family"s wealth,the divorce property given by the Gu’s was definitely a drop in the bucket.
"Mom,I think this is a matter between brotherand sister-in-law. Let"s wait for brother to come back and talkabout this." A girlincrinoline dress,young and lively,said with frown.
She wasthe youngest daughter of the Gu’s,named Gu Shaoqing,only 18 years old this year.
She was the most neutral person in this family. Neither would she be inany favor,nor take any advantage of Tang.
"Little sister,you are wrong about that. She is a woman who marries into a rich family like ours. Sheshould have a son to consolidate herstatus,but see,let alone aboy,she cannot even have a baby girl.We cannot tolerate a woman like her that cannot be pregnant in our family."
Sitting on the other side,a girl wearing mature outfit said while manicuring her nails with nail clippers.
"But sis,marriage cannot be measured in the ability to have children,there are many couples without children can still be happy to live a lifetime." Gu Shaoqing said.
"Naive! I’ve told you not to readthose romance novels.That would only make you stupid."
"Mom." Gu Shaoqing shouted.
Mrs. Gu drewhereyebrows togetherand said. "Shaoqing,your sister is right. If you have time,you should learn more about music,chess,calligraphyand painting.Don’t read novels about woman marrying into rich family too much. You are a debutante born with silver spoon. How can you believe things that written by those ignorant people. Those are fully nonsense.
Gu Shaoqing compressed her lipsand was a little dissatisfied.
Mrs. Gu waved her hand and looked back toTang Yao. "Sign the paper,don"t make yourself leave the home with nothing. Well,your familycan’t live a poor life,right?However,we don"t haveto help you with your gambling-addicted father to pay the endless debt holeas well.So,have some self-respect and leave."
"Gu’s mom,how can you say that?" Tang’s father retorted with a little displeasure.
Mrs. Gu just looked at him contemptuouslyand did not speak.
As she saw,the Tang family was a bunch of dogs waggingtheir tails begging for pity,and they were not worth opening her mouth.
Seeing all these condition,Tang’s heart ached. She didn’t knowwhether she should still insist on the marriage with Gu shaoze.
Even though she knew by heart that how awful her family was,she couldn’tcompletely ignore the way that they lookeddown upon her family.
She opened her mouth and was about to talk. The door behind heropened,and a man with slender figure came in.
The man wearing white shirt and trousers hadbig deep eyes,white skin and high nose. It looked like that he was about 180cm tall. At first glance,he seemedlike a Prince Charming coming out from the comic books,looking extremely elegant and n.o.ble.
Tang Yaolooked at the man who came directly to her,and there was a moment that made her feel absentminded.
It seemedthat many years ago,there was such a young boy who came to her with a gentle smile. Seeinghis smile was like facing thespring breeze,arousing people’s affection for him.
Just likethe blink of an eye,it hadbeen almost ten years.Time pa.s.sed quickly. Even the people theythought that would not changed werequietly changing.
"Brother,you are back." Gu Shaoqing cheered.
Gu shaozefaintly took a look of her,then took the hand of Tang Yaoand went straight upstairs.
Mrs. Gu frownedand said,"Shaoze."
Gu shaozestopped and turnedaroundto look at Mrs. Gu. "Mom,this is something between me and Yaoyao."
Mrs. Gu’s face became sullen.But she lovedand caredaboutGu shaoze,otherwise she could not tolerate Tang Yaofor so many years.
"Shaoze,you’ve been busy for the wholeday,you must be tired. I cango upstairsto prepare the water for you to have a bathand let the servant prepare delicious meals for you."
Restraining her rage,Mrs. Gu was like a loving mother,asking and caring for heronly son.
"Mom,noneed,I am not tired. You can let the servant prepare meals that we usually eat. I’m not picky."
Aftersayingthat,he directly took Tang Yaoupstairs and went straight to the bedroom andclosedthe door,blocking the group of people downstairs who wanted to see the gossips.
"I can’t understandit.Why doesthiswoman deserve brotherto treat her so carefully?"
Downstairs,Gu Shaoyun compressed her lips and sneered.
Mrs. Gu glanced at her. "Don’t say anything more. Your older brother musthavehis points."
Gu Shaoyun looked at the closed door of the bedroom upstairs. Suddenly,she was a little gloating. Her older brother had a choice here. On the one hand,he was a patriarchand must continue the family line,buton the other hand,he loved for nearly ten years.
He was the only son of Gu’s,it was impossible to have no grandchildren.
In the bedroom,Tang Yaoslightly shook awayGu shaoze"s hand and stepped back two steps,keeping the distance with him.
Looking at the empty hand,Gu shaozewrinkled. Hewas somewhat unpleasant.
Tang Yaowas looking aroundthe room,watchingthe familiar decoration in the bedroom.
Because she likedChinese style,the decoration of the bedroom was a low-key Chinese style: a large bed was carved of pear wood,and their wedding photos werehanging on the center wall abovethe bed.
Gu shaozegently wrapped around her waist,and she smiled at the camera. One looked handsome,the other lookedgorgeous,just like a perfect match.
"Yao Yao." Gu shaozepulledover Tang Yao"s shoulder and his voice was low.
Tang Yao’s heart trembled.
However,Chen Yuan’s pregnancy flashed in her mind,and her feelingslowly calmed down.
