Zhang Xiaohui had always been proud of her poor farmer background. Unsurprisingly, she also looked down on her grandfather and grandmother in this family and always acted as though she was superior.
If not for her father’s pressure, she could treat and order her grandfather and grandmother around like slaves.
In the past, as long as Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing mentioned this, Grandfather and Grandmother did not dare to anger them even if they themselves were angry.
Because they were afraid!
They had never done any evil things in their lifetimes but in the end…
Had Gu Chonghua not fallen seriously ill and almost lost his life, the both of them would be living in an even worse place.
Both their sons made a name for themselves and their three grandchildren were rather outstanding as well thus they were treated better.
Furthermore, while out to labor, Gu Chonghua and Gu Yunshen also searched high and low for medicinal herbs to treat the villagers thus the old couple was able to continue living in the current house.
No matter what, this was better than the very start.
Currently, they could only exercise caution in exchange for the safety of the family.
Gu Qingyao was aware that Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing looked down on the Gu family, intentionally bullied her grandfather and grandmother and believed everything they did was right.
Seeing that Gu Yunshen, Grandfather and Grandmother were not speaking up for her, Gu Ruoqing puffed angrily.
Gu Qingyao snickered. “Why? Have you thought clearly? I’ll be making fish today. If you don’t wish to eat, you can go out and play.”
“You… Nonsense!” Gu Ruoqing could not adapt to Gu Qingyao’s sudden strictness. Gu Qingyao was not like this in the past.
“Have you thought clearly? Labor or play?”
Gu Ruoqing glared at these people with hatred. She was definitely not going to labor and she did not believe that these people dare not feed her! Humph!
Gu Ruoqing scoffed coldly and sprinted away!
Gu Qingyao pursed her lips and could not wait for her to get lost immediately as she could save on the food supplies. With this person present, it was inconvenient for her to make good food for the family.
When she said that Zhang Xiaohui brought the food supplies to her maiden family and that Gu Ruoqing, as the daughter, had to labor, Gu Ruoqing did not even think that Gu Qingyao was also Zhang Xiaohui’s daughter. From this reaction, Gu Qingyao knew that Gu Ruoqing was already aware that she was not Gu Yunshen’s daughter.
She simply did not view Gu Yunshen as her father and may even be thinking of her biological father and look down on Gu Yunshen!

Zhang Xiaohui betrayed Gu Yunshen and even gave birth to a daughter yet still bragged around and despised others in the family. Furthermore, she always took the things from home to raise her maiden family and these two people even wished to ruin her in the market previously.

She led a miserable life in her previous life because of their tricks and it would be weird if she still let them live well!
Anyways, they were not her biological mother or sister and she did not have any emotional burdens.
Once Gu Ruoqing ran away, Gu Qingyao turned around and told her family, “Grandfather, Grandmother, go wash up first. Father, do go as well.”
Grandfather Gu sighed. “Yao Yao! Be careful of your mother’s side. I know that you cannot stand it and so do all of us. But in this world… there is no choice. Nothing is more important than the safety of our whole family, understand?”
