Chapter 152: Relying on a Rich Woman
“Yu, when I was at the Old Yang family, I was curious. Why did the villagers say a bear started the fire?”
After resolving the trouble caused by the Old Yang family, the three members of the Gu family felt refreshed. Coupled with the late night before, except for Gu Qingheng, who was curiously prying for gossip, Gu Yu and Gu Mengyao had slept soundly.
When the two woke up feeling refreshed, Gu Qingheng returned from outside with a smug smile, seemingly having received good news.
Later, when Gu Yu took out ready-made meals from his space, Gu Mengyao, sitting at the table, suddenly asked out of curiosity.
Upon hearing this, Gu Yu was stunned for a moment, but his expression remained unchanged. He continued to serve the dishes from his space, showing no signs of being exposed.
While taking advantage of this opportunity, Gu Yu thought of the excuse he had prepared earlier. After confirming that there were no problems, he then answered Gu Mengyao’s question.
“I’m not too sure! But, Little Black was caught from the big mountain. Perhaps there are other bears just as intelligent as it is, which is also possible!”
“But, after returning from the capital, you sent Little Black back to the mountain, right?”
“Yes, Little Black said it was going to find a female bear to have some cubs.”
While Gu Yu was talking to Gu Mengyao, he had almost finished serving the dishes. Afterwards, he sat down and faced Gu Mengyao’s somewhat suspicious gaze. Although Gu Yu’s heart was pounding, his outward appearance remained unchanged.
Gu Qingheng, sitting opposite them, felt a jolt in his heart upon hearing this. After considering various possibilities, he never expected that Little Black would be the problem.
Although others would not believe that a bear started the fire, Gu Mengyao had seen a human-like Little Black…
It seemed that now he needed to distract his sister to prevent his brother-in-law from being exposed.
Gu Qingheng sometimes couldn’t understand how someone as capable as his brother-in-law could be so afraid of his sister!
However, in reality… he was like a rat meeting a cat. Not only did he obey Gu Mengyao’s every word, but after doing something wrong, Gu Yu could hardly hide anything from Gu Mengyao.
This time, it was actually okay.
At least he had held out until now.
“Sister! Why are you so fixated on that bear! The Old Yang family got retribution, they deserved it! If a bear really started the fire, I’d have to thank it! It helped me teach the Old Yang family a lesson, and it made me feel so comfortable!”
“It’s not that I’m fixated, it’s just that I originally thought I would deal with the Old Yang family, but now they’ve already been driven away.”
“Hey! I thought it was a big deal! It’s good that the Old Yang family was driven away. At least we won’t see them in Yang Family Village anymore, and it saves a lot of trouble… Even if you were the one to deal with them, the Old Yang family would have only suffered a small loss, not been driven away directly like your brother-in-law did.”
“Speaking of this, Yu! At that time, why did you say something that had nothing to do with the Old Yang family? That’s not good for you!”
As expected, after Gu Qingheng spoke,Gu Mengyao’s attention was immediately diverted.
However, when Gu Mengyao recalled the scene in Yang Family Village that morning, her eyebrows subconsciously furrowed slightly. Then, she looked at Gu Yu, who was holding chopsticks and unsure which dish to pick up, and began to settle accounts.
Gu Yu also did not expect that Gu Mengyao would still bring up old issues after everything was over… At this moment, he couldn’t help but smile bitterly, and didn’t know what to say.
Although Gu Mengyao didn’t look angry now, Gu Yu felt that if he answered one wrong word, his little wife would probably turn into a scolding shrew!
“Mengyao, I just wanted to cut ties with the Old Yang family completely. Otherwise, if their house burned down, they would use kinship as an excuse to forcefully move into our home. Don’t say it’s impossible to let them in. With Madam Li’s personality, if you really don’t let her in, she’ll probably gather a group of people to surround our house and sit on the ground crying…”
“Pfft, brother-in-law, your description is so vivid!”
“That’s exactly how it is, so I don’t want to see anyone from the Old Yang family anymore. By voluntarily revealing my father’s identity as an abandoned infant, I could also cut off any possibilities from the Old Yang family’s side. As for whether it’s good or bad for me, ever since I became a son-in-law who married into the wife’s family, the villagers have never spoken well of me.”
“Yu…”
“Don’t worry, I don’t mean to complain. And my life in the Gu family is good, and I haven’t been wronged, so I don’t feel anything bad about it… Plus, I have such a beautiful wife, whom others can only dream of!”
Listening to Gu Yu’s words, when the word “marrying into” was mentioned, Gu Mengyao’s face showed a hint of guilt, and she felt apologetic for having asked Gu Yu to marry into her family.
After all, no man wants to be labeled as a live-in son-in-law, as it makes them unable to hold their heads up in front of others.
However, Gu Yu did not think that way.
Before he transmigrated, his friends in the group had been clamoring about wanting to “marry a rich woman.” Although it was somewhat teasing, if a young, beautiful, gentle, and virtuous rich woman appeared, few men could resist it!
His little wife fit all these conditions!
Moreover, she had innate divine strength.
Of course, Gu Yu was not simply living off his wife’s money. With his current abilities, abundant wealth, and superb medical skills, he could marry a hundred women without any problem.
At most, he would suffer from kidney deficiency.
But, why bother!
If he hadn’t met Gu Mengyao, Gu Yu would have considered being a monk for a lifetime. Now that he finally had a woman he liked, he would never look at other women again.
He had said long ago that his heart was very small, so small that it could only accommodate Gu Mengyao.
“Look at what you’re saying!”
“Heh, my wife is the most beautiful!”
Listening to Gu Yu’s words, Gu Mengyao’s cheeks flushed slightly, and then a shy smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. Gu Yu couldn’t help but chuckle and then immediately leaned in for a stolen kiss.
Gu Mengyao did not resist Gu Yu’s intimacy. As they were gazing lovingly at each other, Gu Qingheng suddenly called out!
“Brother-in-law, Little Black is back!”
“It’s back, so it’s back! It’s been out in the mountains for so long, it’s about time it returned.”
Just as Gu Yu was about to do something, the voice of his brother-in-law, the “light bulb,” immediately pulled him and Gu Mengyao out of their romantic atmosphere. Then, Gu Mengyao didn’t continue to sit down, but followed Gu Qingheng out towards the courtyard gate.
Seeing that everyone had left, Gu Yu naturally had to follow.
However, when Gu Yu reached the main entrance, he found that the situation was indeed a bit unusual.
Little Black was still the same clever and mischievous Little Black.
But why was there another bear with brown fur accompanying it?
The brown bear was slightly smaller in build, wore a wild flower on its head, and was obediently standing by Little Black’s side, making Little Black extremely smug.
This…
Little Black really found a female bear!
