Ch 137: Haha, Completely Down-and-out Now
Zhou Xiaofei looked at Sun Hongmei’s sharp face, raised her hand and slapped her, her eyes fierce as if she wanted to kill.
“You bitch! I gave you so much money, you took my benefits, and still betrayed me? How did you promise me before? You agreed just now, but then you sold me out, are you even a person? You beast!”
Zhou Xiaofei was furious, thinking of everything she had lost, she wished she could cut Sun Hongmei into a thousand pieces.
Sun Hongmei didn’t take it anymore after being slapped twice, “You shrew, didn’t you tell me to do this? If I didn’t give you up, they would arrest me and send me to prison. If it weren’t for you, I would still be living well in the village. If you want to blame someone, blame your own immorality. You wanted to harm others, and now you’re suffering. Serves you right!”
Sun Hongmei was stronger than Zhou Xiaofei, and directly pushed her away.
Zhou Xiaofei stumbled and almost fell. In the past, she was a young miss of the Gu Family, who wouldn’t treat her nicely? Now even a rural woman dares to fight with her.
“Stop right there, you took so much money from me and want to leave? You can leave, but return the money to me.”
Zhou Xiaofei is down-and-out now. The Gu Family has cut ties with her, and her money will definitely not be as abundant in the future, only her monthly wage.
But she still spends money lavishly. Now, the only money she has is given to Sun Hongmei. What kind of hardship will she have to endure in the future?
Sun Hongmei heard her asking for money and quickly covered her cloth bag.
“Bullshit, that money was given to me by you, and you want it back? I tell you, no way, unless I die!”
For a moment, the two women almost fought again. Sun Hongmei was worried, punched Zhou Xiaofei several times, and ran away.
Zhou Xiaofei couldn’t chase after a madwoman, she could only stomp her feet angrily on the spot.
Gu Yuanyang looked at the scene, only feeling it was unbearable. Zhou Xiaofei at this moment was no better than Sun Hongmei, a pure shrew.
Gu Yuanyang felt extremely ashamed, “Okay, stop making a fuss, it’s not early, I’ll take you there quickly, I have other things to do later.”
Zhou Xiaofei was beaten by Sun Hongmei, but Gu Yuanyang ignored it, Zhou Xiaofei inevitably felt disheartened.
“Yuanyang? Didn’t you see her attacking me? No matter what, I’m your sister, how can you just watch?”
Gu Yuanyang had also lost his patience. Sun Hongmei was not a good person, but didn’t she bring this on herself? The money was given willingly, how could he, a man, help? He couldn’t go and beat Sun Hongmei up, could he?
“How can I help? You brought this person to the city with great difficulty, since it’s your own decision, you have to bear the consequences.”
Anyone with common sense can tell right from wrong.
Ultimately, Zhou Xiaofei is reaping what she sowed.
Zhou Xiaofei was about to be angered to death, what does it mean that people leave and things cool down? This is it.
Gu Yuanyang is not so easy to manipulate. Although he doesn’t usually talk much, he is quite thoughtful.
Although he also has feelings for Zhou Xiaofei, he still understands the priorities. Now the whole family wants to draw a line with Zhou Xiaofei. If he takes the lead, it would serve him right if he gets shot.
Zhou Xiaofei was so angry that she cried, but Gu Yuanyang didn’t respond, and sent her to the dormitory building downstairs with a cold face and left.
Seeing this, Zhou Xiaofei bit her lip, grabbed Gu Yuanyang’s arm, and stammered, “Yuanyang, do you still have any money? Can you lend me some money? I don’t even have ten yuan left on me.”
She said, blinking her swollen eyes.
Gu Yuanyang’s brows furrowed even deeper. A while ago, after Zhou Xiaofei had a conflict with her family, she had borrowed money from him once. Gu Yuanyang had just started working and was not particularly well-off. Although the Gu Family was rich, they would not let their children spend money carelessly. Gu Yuanyang also had some hobbies and spent his money on assembling appliances. The last time’s money was what he had saved recently.
But judging from the current situation, that money would certainly not be returned, but he didn’t intend to ask for it back.
But borrowing money from him now is excessive. Does Zhou Xiaofei really have no money? Before, the Gu Family would give her a sum of money every month, and Zhou Xiaofei sent that money back home to help with household expenses.
She also spent her own wages recklessly, in order to frame Shen Mingyue, she spared no expense and lured Sun Hongmei over.
Now the money has been scammed away by Sun Hongmei, and she is borrowing money from him to plug the hole. Does he look like a sucker?
“I have no money now, the only money I had was borrowed by you.”
Zhou Xiaofei was stunned and instantly blushed.
“If you don’t want to give it, then forget it. I’ve figured it out, everything is fake.”
After saying that, she chuckled twice, her tone full of self-mockery.
Gu Yuanyang couldn’t take it anymore. It was clearly her fault, why was she resenting others here? As if the whole world owed her.
Gu Yuanyang didn’t say a word and turned to leave.
Zhou Xiaofei gritted her teeth angrily and cursed the Gu Family as ungrateful people, not showing a trace of affection.
Gu Jianjun and Tian Shufang were like that, and Gu Yuanyang and Gu Yuanzhou, the two brothers, were the same. What big family? What rich people? They are all a bunch of heartless things.
After moving her things to the dormitory building, Zhou Xiaofei looked at the female teachers in her dormitory and figured out whether she could borrow some from them first and repay them after getting her salary.
Just as she mustered up the courage to speak, she was directly rejected.
She usually discriminated against the poor and loved the rich at school, only willing to associate with wealthy and influential teachers. As for those with poor family backgrounds, she naturally looked down on them.
These female teachers live in the dormitory, indicating that their family backgrounds are not good, and they have been sneered at by Zhou Xiaofei before.
Now hearing Zhou Xiaofei asking them to borrow money, they were naturally impolite.
“Oh, Teacher Zhou, isn’t your family very rich? I heard that you have so much money that you can’t even spend it all, why do you need to borrow money from us? We only have a little bit of money, you wouldn’t even look at it.”
Another female teacher nodded in agreement, “Teacher Zhou, what’s wrong with you? Were you kicked out of your family?”
Zhou Xiaofei’s face was ashen. She had finally humbled herself to get along with them, but they were not only ungrateful, but also mocked her.
“If you don’t want to lend it, then forget it.”
Zhou Xiaofei didn’t have the attitude of someone asking for help. After saying that, she directly covered her face with the quilt and pretended to sleep.
The few people looked at each other and rolled their eyes.
Old Master Gu and the others had already left. The matter had been resolved, and the next step was to spread the news to prevent Zhou Xiaofei from using the Gu Family’s name to cause trouble outside.
Soon, everyone in the entire compound heard about this incident, including Song Xue.
Learning that Zhou Xiaofei had been expelled from the Gu Family, Song Xue was shocked. This was too frightening, could it be because of that incident before?
Thinking of this, Song Xue’s mood inevitably became heavy.
Zhou Xiaofei was raised by the Gu Family for more than ten years. Because of this incident, they cut ties with her. If she is an outsider, would the Gu Family let her off easily?
Thinking of this, she became uneasy.
“This is really a rare thing. After raising her for more than ten years, why would they suddenly cut ties?”
“Who knows, but since the Gu Family said so, there must be a big matter happening, but I don’t know what it’s about.”
An auntie had a sudden inspiration and whispered, “Do you remember the rumor from a while ago? Didn’t they say that Zhou Xiaofei liked the second son of the Gu Family? Although she’s an adopted daughter, she’s still a member of the Gu Family. How is it to like your own brother? Besides, the second son of the Gu Family is already married. I think it’s probably because of this that they kicked her out.”
When everyone heard this, they all thought it made sense.
It was originally a good deed, but they raised such a child. No one would feel good about it.
It’s normal for Zhou Xiaofei to be kicked out now.
As for the specific reasons, the Gu Family naturally didn’t elaborate. Such a shameful thing, it’s not appropriate to talk about it.
Besides, they don’t need to explain to outsiders. Everyone just needs to know that Zhou Xiaofei and the Gu Family will have nothing to do with each other from now on.
Gu Jianjun’s only relief now is that he didn’t move Zhou Xiaofei’s household registration. Legally, she is still the daughter of the Zhou Family.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t be so easy to handle things.
After Old Master Gu left, several people couldn’t sit in the living room anymore, and each went back to their own rooms.
Gu Jianjun sighed, “I told you to bring her back, why didn’t you stop me? As a result, you raised such a scourge. Now that I think about it, I feel so stupid.”
The more Gu Jianjun thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt, and he couldn’t help but nag to his wife.
Tian Shufang also felt bad. From today on, Zhou Xiaofei is no longer their child of the Gu Family. They lived together for more than ten years, and Tian Shufang is a sentimental person, so she was naturally sad and regretful.
“What’s the use of saying these things? It’s come to this, you can’t blame Yuanzhou and the others for being angry, she really went too far.”
Gu Jianjun picked up on something, and looked at his wife seriously.
“I tell you, if she privately asks you to plead for her in the future, you can’t listen to her. This is decided by Old Master Gu, no one can go against his wishes, otherwise, if Old Master Gu finds out and gets angry, I can’t save you.”
After hearing her husband’s words, Tian Shufang was angry and glared at Gu Jianjun.
“You’re really heartless. It’s Xiaofei’s fault, but she has been raised for so many years. If she encounters any difficulties in life that she can’t solve, we should still help if we can.”
Tian Shufang was ultimately soft-hearted.
Unexpectedly, these words provoked a scolding from her husband.
“I think you’re crazy. Old Master Gu is doing this to clear the relationship, if you still associate with her, be careful of being harmed later. This child is ill-intentioned and is likely to cause great trouble, don’t blame me for not reminding you.”
After being scolded by her husband, Tian Shufang couldn’t help but think back carefully.
It seemed to be the case. Zhou Xiaofei is so young, but she did such a vicious thing. Ordinary people wouldn’t dare to do this.
For example, Gu Sisi, although she is willful and capricious, she absolutely would not do such a thing because she doesn’t have the guts, and she also knows that the consequences are too serious, and she would weigh it in her heart.
