Chapter 1242: Beyond All Argument
"Good that you didn’t give it."
Su Yunjin was relieved.
Originally, Gu Tiezhu had failed to deceive silver out of her and Gu Ya, then turned to the fifth brother and Mrs. Chu to trick them, and as a result, they were unguarded and got deceived by Gu Tiezhu.
Su Yunjin had worried that Mrs. Chu and Gu Jianghai had again been swindled out of their silver by Gu Hengniang. But seeing Mrs. Chu say she didn’t give any, Su Yunjin also breathed a sigh of relief.
Mrs. Chu still looked indignant.
"Sister-in-law, today my second sister asked for money, neither my husband nor I gave her any, and as a result, she started a huge commotion in our shop, which led to us not having any business the entire day."
Gu Hengniang cursed Mrs. Chu and Gu Jianghai in their shop for being heartless and ungrateful, saying that now that they had prospered, they didn’t even recognize their own sister.
Gu Hengniang’s curses in the shop were ugly, and she exaggerated things, causing those unacquainted with the truth to really believe that Gu Jianghai and his wife, Mrs. Chu, were the kind of people who would deny their own families and forget old favors.
At that time, Mrs. Chu heard quite a few people in the shop cursing both her and her husband Gu Jianghai, and their words were hardly any more pleasant than Gu Hengniang’s.
Everyone was talking about her fault and Gu Jianghai’s. Naturally, Mrs. Chu wouldn’t let others wrong them without a response, and she and Gu Jianghai were eager to explain.
Yet, they were made speechless by Gu Hengniang’s commotion. No matter how they tried to explain, there were always people in the shop who felt that they and Gu Jianghai were denying their own families.
After opening the bun shop, they were even neglecting their own sister. Of course, apart from some who believed Gu Hengniang, there were also a few who believed Mrs. Chu and Gu Jianghai.
