Chapter 38: Being a Stepmother 5

For a few eggs, the aunts talked about all kinds of things about Gu Dapeng's family. Ye Zhiqiu was overwhelmed after listening to them. She said in her heart, "Wow, the Ye family actually gave her to a fool."

The Gu family has three sons, and the one she is engaged to is the youngest. The youngest son was not born mentally retarded, but became mentally retarded after suffering from meningitis at the age of six. To be precise, he is not mentally retarded, but his IQ remains at the level of a 6-year-old.

The two older sons of the Gu family have already started their own families, and the younger son is already in his 20s, and needs someone to take care of his food, clothing, housing and transportation. The problem is that the two older brothers moved out after getting married, and threatened that they would take care of their parents in their old age and would never take care of their younger brothers for the rest of their lives.

Gu Dapeng and his wife were worried that no one would take care of their youngest son in the future, so they wanted to marry a hardworking girl from the countryside who would take care of their son for the rest of his life.

They were worried that their son would live too long, so they deliberately chose a younger girl so that they would not have to worry about no one taking care of their youngest son after they died.

It's a thoughtful thing, but it's a pity that whoever marries her will be unlucky.

Ye Daniu was kind enough to introduce a marriage to the Gu family because Gu Dapeng's brother was the workshop director of the machinery factory and could introduce people to the machinery factory. He wanted to send his son to the machinery factory, so he asked Ye Zhiqiu to do him a favor to please Gu Dapeng.

Haha! I don’t know if the Ye family in the village knows the details. Ye Zhiqiu sneered in his heart, but showed a frightened expression on his face and thanked all the aunts.

"Little girl, don't go. We haven't finished talking yet." The aunties still had the most important news to reveal. They would feel uncomfortable if they didn't finish, so they took the initiative to stop Ye Zhiqiu who was about to leave.

She was also curious about what else was going on: "You talk, I'm listening."

"Their family is bad. They said nicely that as long as they give birth to a grandson, they will let their daughter-in-law take over Gu Dapeng's wife's job, but they have no plans to do so at all."

"Yes, I also asked his wife, what if the daughter-in-law makes trouble? Guess what she said?"

"What do you mean?" Ye Zhiqiu interrupted at the right time, trying to be a qualified supporting actor.

"They can just make a scene if they want to. The worst that can happen is a divorce. They already have grandchildren, so what's there to be afraid of? They can live another ten or eight years without any problem. They can raise their grandchildren, and then someone will take care of their youngest son. Their own grandchildren are more reliable than their daughter-in-law, and they feel more at ease with them."

Another aunt couldn't help but complain after hearing this: "Tsk tsk tsk, they are really smart."

Ye Zhiqiu nodded his head in agreement in his heart, but he also weakly retorted: "Can a fool give birth to a child? Even if he can, it doesn't guarantee that it will be a boy, right?"

Several middle-aged women looked at each other and smiled meaningfully. One of them even pointed at her, "Little girl, you are still too young and don't understand."

"I don't understand, can you teach me?" Ye Zhiqiu loosened his grip and handed the aunties a few White Rabbit milk candies he had just taken out of the space.

"Oh, it's a White Rabbit, a rare thing."

Even city workers can't eat candy every day, they take it home to comfort their children. Anyone who can sit under the shade of a tree and chat must have a child.

The aunties don't mind talking about the Gu family's disgusting things. Anyway, they have already said it, and if they really wanted to offend the Gu family, they would have offended them long ago.

The little girl would definitely not tell anyone, and other people have also talked about the Gu family's affairs. What is there to be afraid of? With this mentality, the oldest Aunt Wang lowered her voice and said, "A fool can't have children, but Gu Dapeng can still have children. After all, they are all family members, and the meat will rot in the pot."

Ye Zhiqiu felt so sick that she wanted to vomit. She suppressed her psychological reaction and was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth. She was silent for dozens of seconds before she asked, "Will his wife agree?"

"Why don't you agree? In his wife's words, my man is a grown man anyway, so he won't suffer any loss. If it's really Gu Dapeng's child, he can control the daughter-in-law from the countryside even better. If this matter gets out, the daughter-in-law from the countryside will definitely have no way to survive, and even the reputation of her family will be implicated. Who dares not to obey?"

Aunt Wang lamented that the little girls were just young. The old ladies of their age had seen everything and had nothing to disagree with. In the past, landlords could openly marry several concubines.

Ye Zhiqiu guessed that the Gu family was a trap, but he didn't expect it to be so shabby inside. Not only was they planning to borrow seeds, but they were also borrowing their father-in-law's seeds. This was dirtier than the stone lions at the gate of the Jia Mansion.

She didn't ask the aunts where they got the news. If they did, it must be groundless. She thanked the aunts and left in a daze. The shock she received today was a bit big, and she needed to calm down before thinking about what to do next.

The aunties waited until she left before they gathered their heads together and shoved their heads together: "Old Wang, aren't you being a little unkind, coaxing a country girl like this, and Gu Dapeng plans to sleep with his daughter-in-law. Are you a worm in his stomach, or are you hiding under their bed and eavesdropping?"

Aunt Wang smiled smugly: "Humph! I'm not lying. Gu Dapeng was just drunk and boasting to others. Can you blame me?"

The other aunties didn't believe it and questioned: "Is it true? Why haven't we heard about it?"

"This is what my old man said when he got home. Many men in the factory know about it, but they all think it's a joke. You can go home and ask to find out whether it's true or not." Aunt Wang looked down on Gu Dapeng from the bottom of her heart. It would be strange if such a joke told by an old man didn't have some truth in it.

Humph! She said this to destroy the Gu family, but she was also a good person. They were not blind, and they had already seen that the little girl had come to the city to inquire about the Gu family. Maybe she was the daughter-in-law that the Gu family had found in the country.

Even if it wasn't, it must be related to the Gu family's marriage, and it would be best if it could be disrupted. If it couldn't be, it couldn't be blamed on them. If someone insisted on jumping into the fire pit of the Gu family, she could only blame herself for not thinking straight.

Ye Zhiqiu didn't know what Aunt Wang was thinking, but she would definitely tell him. She didn't need to worry that she would be upset. She would rather not get married than fall into the hell of Gu's family.

Along the way, she had figured it out. Although the marriage was arranged, she was not yet 18 years old, so there was still time to solve this problem. Early marriage was popular in the village, and some people got married before they were 18, but the Gu family was from the city, so they would definitely feel embarrassed to bring up the matter too early.

If the Gu family really dares to violate the Marriage Law and urge marriage, she is not afraid. She will go to the Women's Federation and make a big fuss to see who dares to go against the law.

In short, try to delay it, and then deal with it when you can’t delay it any longer.

Fortunately, this body has eaten little since childhood, and due to malnutrition, it has slowed down its development and has not had its period even after turning 15. Even if the Gu family wanted to find a free babysitter, they would not bring up the matter at this time.

She had to guard against her own family. As long as she didn't marry into the Gu family, her cousin wouldn't be able to work in the machinery factory. She could delay, but Uncle Ye's family would definitely not be happy to do so.

Maybe she should find something for Ye Daniu's family to do to keep them busy so that they will have no time to plot against her.
