Quickly wear it and get rid of his virtuous character
Chapter 353: Stepmother 5
After getting familiar with the environment, Su Tong went back to work at his own unit. The original owner's job was an accountant in a unit. It seemed easy, but there was no channel for promotion and the salary was a fixed salary. There were three men to support at home. Even though Gu Guoqiang's salary was decent, not all of his salary was handed over to the family. Instead, half of it was sent back to his hometown and the other half was sent to his ex-wife's parents.
Although Gu Guoqiang's salary is okay, but after deducting the pocket money he keeps for himself and adding the money he gives to his parents, the money the other party takes back is almost the same as his salary.
If you calculate it this way, I am still at a loss. Alas, the original owner is kind-hearted and not petty. He is even willing to make sacrifices. But Su Tong doesn't want to spend his money on those ungrateful people.
Su Tong used his identity as a financial officer to buy some things, including some winter clothes. He even exchanged some food coupons with others and bought some candy and milk powder.
After doing all this, Su Tong went to the pharmacy and bought some common medicines, such as anti-inflammatory drugs and cold medicines, and then mailed them back directly when she got off work.
Su Tong originally wanted to tell his parents about his current situation, but what was the point of telling them? It would only make them worry too, so he decided not to tell them. He decided to reunite with their family after he had resolved his troubles.
Gu Guoqiang spent the whole day in a hurry and finally waited until the end of get off work. He originally wanted to go home directly, but when he thought about the quarrel with Su Tong yesterday, he guessed that the other party would not pick up their younger son, so he hurriedly rode his bike to pick up his younger son.
The eldest brother also finished school early. Originally, the two brothers wanted to run out to play with their schoolbags like they did before, but Gu Guoqiang would not spoil the two children. He simply threw their dirty clothes on them and told them to take them downstairs to wash them.
Gu Yaozhong looked at the dirty clothes and said hesitantly, "Dad, didn't you say before that grown men never do housework? These are done by women, why are you giving them to me now? Besides, stepmother beat me and my brother yesterday, so she must have calmed down today. You should just give the dirty clothes to stepmother and give her a way out."
Gu Guoqiang sneered twice and grabbed his eldest son's ear. "It seems that you still don't remember. Have you forgotten what I told you? If you want to have enough food at home in the future, you should work honestly. Go wash the clothes quickly and scan the address later.
Children your age have learned to lighten the burden of the family. After school, they either go out to collect wood or do housework. You two are nothing but playing around and don’t know how to do anything serious.”
Gu Yaozhong felt wronged. He and his brother used to go out and play a lot, and his father didn't say anything at that time. Why did he start to control them now? Could it be because that woman wanted a divorce? If she wanted a divorce, then she could have one. What's the big deal?
Gu Yaozhong pouted his lips and ran downstairs reluctantly to wash clothes. When he was seen by the aunties living in the same corridor, they all praised him for being responsible.
"The sun really rose from the west today. Don't you and your brother always run out to play after school? Why are you learning to wash clothes now? Is your stepmother still angry? You two kids are really something. You are so old now. You should learn to behave yourself."
An auntie nearby said, "But that Su Tong is really something. He is an educated man after all. How could he hit a child? Well, I would never hit my child anyway."
"Hey, don't you think it's ridiculous when you say that? If I remember correctly, you beat your child the day before yesterday because he stole a cookie. How come you forgot it now?"
The auntie immediately shut her mouth, laughed awkwardly twice, and continued washing clothes.
Gu Yaozhong pouted, rolled his eyes, and then revealed a pitiful look.
"Aunts, please stop arguing about me. I know that what my brother and I did was wrong, but actually... but actually there were other reasons why our stepmother beat us. It's just that my father didn't want me to tell anyone else. We were just the ones who were taken out on us..."
After hearing this, the aunties who were washing clothes pricked up their ears instantly, with gossip in their eyes.
"Oh, I was wondering why such a good kid like you would get beaten? There must be another reason. What was it? Could it be that your father and stepmother couldn't get along? That shouldn't be the case. I think they are very harmonious and haven't had any quarrels in all these years. The relationship between the old husband and the young wife should be very strong."
Gu Yaozhong nodded, then shook his head, covering his mouth with a look of horror, "I can't tell you aunts, I only know that my stepmother really doesn't like my father anymore, and she even talked about divorce and the like.
I... I'm just a child, I don't know anything... I only know that my stepmother will never cook for us or wash clothes for me again, and we have to do everything by ourselves."
After Gu Yaozong finished speaking, a trace of fear appeared in his eyes. He held up the clothes he had washed and said, "Okay, I can't say any more, otherwise Dad will be angry. I also hope that all the aunts will pretend that they didn't hear what I said today. I should go back now. I just hope that Dad won't take his anger out on us brothers anymore."
After saying this, Gu Yaozhong hurried upstairs carrying the washed clothes. When the women nearby heard what he said, they were so surprised that their mouths were wide open. If they hadn't taken into account that the main person was still there, they would have started gossiping a long time ago.
"No way. Actually, Lao Gu is a good person. He just can't make sense when it comes to children. I don't think these two will get divorced."
"That's not necessarily true. Old Gu went out very late today, and he took the two children with him. Maybe Su Tong really doesn't want to take care of the children."
"In fact, Su Tong is a pretty good stepmother. At least she treats the two children well. When she married in, the second child was still young, and she raised him with great difficulty. In the end, the first child also led the second child astray."
"You said it's normal for a couple to quarrel. I'm just afraid that they are not on the same page. Lao Gu is afraid that the two children will be bullied by their stepmother, so he will inevitably stand on the side of the children when they are naughty. Sometimes he will ignore Su Tong's feelings. Maybe at that time, the two of them will start to quarrel."
"If the couple really divorced, I guess Su Tong would be able to remarry right away. After all, Su Tong is a decent employee with an easy job and he's not bad looking. But Gu is probably in trouble. He's been married twice and has two sons. I don't know which woman would be interested in him."
