Chapter 175 - 174 Every Family Has Its Problems
Old Mistress Huang stood up, not in a good mood, and said, "When have I ever needed to notify you before making vows to the heavens?"
Matchmaker Zhang was choked by the rebuff and, realizing Old Mistress Huang’s prickly demeanor, knew she was unhappy. Still, she approached with a smile, "Madame Gu, who has upset you so? Why are you in such a bad temper?"
"Hmph..." Old Mistress Huang snorted coldly at Matchmaker Zhang, dusted off her knees, and went into the backyard. Soon after, her muttering and cursing could be heard coming from there.
"Who have I offended, that everyone should give me such aggravation? Was it easy for me to birth this bunch of you, only to suffer such humiliation in my old age!"
Huang Xiangwen stuck her head out of the window, then swiftly pulled back and said, "What’s Mother so mad about? We wouldn’t dare give her trouble."
Gu Feng gestured towards the master house and whispered, "Who else could it be? The debt collector came today!"
All these words fell clearly upon Gu Youyou’s ears. She was speechless. Wasn’t she also a victim? If there was someone to scold, it should be that person standing at the gate pretending to be a door god!
Outside the door, Matchmaker Zhang called out in her thin voice, "Patriarch Gu, are you feeling any better? Could you come out for a moment?"
"Ah! Please go to the main hall and wait for a bit!" Gu Feng naturally meant to get up.
Gu Youyou frowned and said, "Grandfather, you should rest if you’re not feeling well; let my uncle and aunt handle it."
