Chapter 225 Gu Dongfang just won't show up
Xiao Gangpao uses the name Zheng Gang, but has changed his surname and age. He has also moved to a different place to live, so Ye Nuan is very relieved.
Because it was in the pharmacy of a military hospital, and he wouldn't be going out to see patients, this was the best job for Su Gang.
Military hospitals are generally more strictly managed than other hospitals, and the medical staff are generally more reliable.
Moreover, he was doing it right under Ye Nuan's nose, which prevented anyone from coming after him to harm him.
Many of Ye Nuan's colleagues from the hospital made a special trip to visit her at home. Because everyone worked different shifts, they usually came in groups of three to five, and sometimes different colleagues would come over for several days in a row.
After Li Qiang was taken to Shanghai by her maternal grandmother, she was specially taught for more than two months before being sent to Zhejiang Province with peace of mind.
That's equivalent to receiving training.
Gu Hanchuan didn't tell Gu Dongfang in Beijing about Ye Nuan giving birth, but he did call the research institute and his second uncle in the Northwest. He just ignored his grandfather.
Even if Gu Hanchuan didn't tell him who Gu Dongfang was, he would still know.
But knowing something from someone else is different from knowing it from your own grandson.
Because of this, Gu Dongfang threw a huge tantrum at home.
Gu Guoliang was so frightened that he dared not breathe loudly.
Ever since Zhang Shuang's incident, Wang Qinya has become much more well-behaved and no longer dares to provoke the old man.
The old man had a lot of good stuff, but Wang Qinya asked him countless times, both openly and secretly, yet Gu Dongfang never revealed a single piece of information. Moreover, no matter the occasion or time, whenever someone asked, Gu Dongfang would simply say that he had handed it all over.
Wang Qinya received the same answer.
But she didn't believe it.
What can you do if you don't believe it?
She searched almost every possible hiding place in the house, except for the study.
The study is a forbidden area in the house. No one except the old man can enter it casually. Moreover, the old man personally gives the order when it is cleaned. Anyone who dares to enter the study at will should expect the old man's thunderous wrath.
Wang Qinya had considered going in to take a look, but to be honest, she really didn't dare.
One time, Gu Guoliang went into the study without saying a word. When the old man found out, he was severely beaten. That time, Gu Guoliang couldn't leave the room for a month.
This shows how angry the old man was.
The more this was the case, the more certain Wang Qinya became that the items were hidden in the study.
Once, when Wang Qinya brought hot soup to the old man, she finally noticed something was wrong with a certain spot on the bookshelf, but she didn't dare to look too closely and never managed to find an opportunity to go in and take a look.
Given her current relationship with the old man, she dared not do it again.
Zhang Shuang is having a tough time right now. Because of Gu Dongfang's public statement, many people are actually speculating about what Zhang Shuang did to make the old man so angry.
If it's really just because their biological father couldn't let the family line die out, then simply changing their surname would suffice; there's absolutely no need to add the clause: "They will have no further connection with the Gu family."
This clearly means severing ties.
Therefore, anyone with a brain knows that Zhang Shuang has seriously offended the old man.
After the old lady from the Ding family was pushed by Gu Guoliang, she naturally wanted to extort money from the Gu family.
However, throughout this entire incident, Gu Dongfang did not appear, nor did he pass on any message to anyone. Even when someone specifically brought it to him, he only said, "I have raised my stepdaughter to this age, and I have done right by them. From now on, you don't need to tell me anything about Zhang Shuang. I have nothing to do with her anymore."
This shows that Zhang Shuang's backer has completely stopped protecting her.
One Wang Qinya is not enough.
Ultimately, Wang Qinya is just a woman, and an elderly one at that. She is no longer in office and is currently just living off the state, with food and drink provided for her. She has absolutely no say in matters of power.
Ultimately, it was Wang Qinya who arranged this matter.
Wang Qinya naturally paid for the hospitalization and related expenses of the Ding family's elderly lady.
As for the need to recuperate at home afterward, Wang Qinya directly proposed fifty yuan a month, one hundred and fifty yuan for three months, plus fifty jin of white flour. The Ding family could provide manpower if they were willing, or she would find outsiders if they were not.
Upon hearing this attitude, the Ding family naturally realized they no longer needed outsiders to take care of them, but they still needed to raise the price.
The Ding family is not one to be bullied easily, and they can afford to pay a little over a hundred yuan; they don't really care.
What they truly value, Wang Qinya cannot provide.
But after several rounds of back-and-forth negotiations, Gu Dongfang still refused to show up, so the Ding family knew that this was the only way.
In the end, Wang Qinya paid a total of 300 yuan, including medical expenses and nursing fees, as well as 50 jin of flour, and that was the end of the matter.
Gu Guoliang still felt wronged. It was clearly the Ding family who bullied his sister, but now he was being extorted. How could he swallow this insult?
Wang Qinya called her son into the house and said earnestly, "You should try to be more responsible! At your age, you're still thinking about taking action. What are you thinking? Look at your age, with no hope of promotion. What will you do in the future? And my grandson, are you really going to send him to the countryside?"
Gu Guoliang said nonchalantly, "Mom, you just spoil them too much. Besides, I have a lot of kids now, sending one to the countryside is already pretty good. My colleague has three kids, two of whom went to the countryside."
Wang Qinya retorted angrily, "How can that be the same? You're surnamed Gu! And can't our Gu family even arrange a job for our child?"
This put Gu Guoliang in a difficult position: "Mom, I really don't have that kind of ability. Dad gave me a heads-up beforehand, and no one can give me any special treatment. We already troubled them once with the eldest son's matter, and now it's the second and third sons' turn. Someone has to go to the countryside, otherwise, if they really report me, that would be terrible."
Upon hearing the report, Wang Qinya immediately lost her spirits.
It's a fact that Gu Guoliang has several children, and it's also a fact that they've reached the required age, so there's no reason for them not to go to the countryside.
Wang Qinya felt angry whenever she thought about this.
The second son's family lived far away in the military camp, and because he was capable on his own, he didn't need to trouble the old man at all.
The third son's family only has one son, Gu Hanchuan, so it's perfectly fine for him not to go to the countryside.
As for the eldest son's family, Wang Qinya's eyes darted around for a while: "Why don't you go and beg your eldest brother?"
Gu Guoliang rolled his eyes: "Forget it! With my brother and sister-in-law's attitude, if I really went to them, wouldn't that be like offering myself up to be beaten? I'm not going. I'd rather send my son to the countryside than get beaten up."
