Anxious
“It’s impossible, absolutely impossible.”
Chu Tian frowned and said impatiently, “How could Su Shen agree to let Gu Zi stay in the Su family? The one he was engaged to was Lin Miao, not Gu Zi.”
“What can we do? Right now, Gu Zi is the one fulfilling the marriage contract on behalf of Lin Miao,” Aunt Chu said, with a slight frown and tightly pursed lips. There was hatred in her eyes when she mentioned Gu Zi. “But I don’t think she’ll behave herself for long. She looks like a vixen, and before you know it, she’ll reveal her true colors. Those three brats will also try to get rid of her, and she might leave sooner than expected.”
She had already made up her mind. She wouldn’t go to the Su family to take care of those three children. Su Li and Su Bing were not easy to handle, and Gu Zi, being such a delicate girl, would be overwhelmed.
When that happened, Gu Zi would likely run away.
At that time, the responsibility of taking care of those three children would fall back to her.
Aunt Chu had a beautiful plan in mind. If it weren’t for the purpose of letting her daughter and Su Shen get together sooner, she wouldn’t have considered becoming a nanny for the Su family.
Chu Tian sighed in relief, praising her mother, “Mom, you’re so smart. My future happiness depends on you now.”
“Well, when you marry Su Shen and have a child, your child will be your reliance. By then, you should control all of Su’s family’s money,” Aunt Chu said with a smile.

Meanwhile, at the Gu family residence.
Zhang Mei, sat on the bed, holding Gu Zi’s photo in her hands, and sighed, “I heard it’s very tough in the countryside. I wonder if Zi Zi can handle it. We’ve raised her like a precious gem.”
Gu Shan frowned slightly, and a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes. He could not help but sigh.
They had raised Gu Zi like a precious gem. It was heartbreaking to think that she would marry someone from the countryside. She was so delicate and tender.
He felt terrible.
Lin Miao stood outside the door and peeked at the situation inside. A trace of anger flashed in her eyes, especially when he saw that Zhang Mei was still weeping for Gu Zi. She wanted nothing more than to tear Gu Zi apart.
Gu Zi had stolen 18 years of her beautiful life. She had finally found where she truly belonged, but her parents were still thinking about Gu Zi.
Lin Miao tried to calm herself and knocked on the door.
Hearing the knocking, Zhang Mei quickly wiped away her tears and cleared her throat. She said, “Come in.”
Lin Miao pushed the door open and walked in. Tears welled up in her eyes as she said softly, “Mom, Dad, should I go find Gu Zi? I believe that if I talk to her, she’ll come back to this family.”
Lin Miao paused and continued, “As for the Lin family, I’ll persuade them to return the three thousand yuan betrothal gift that man gave. If they’re unwilling, I’ll go to work and help Gu Zi pay off the betrothal gift as soon as possible. I don’t want you to be sad all the time.”
“Work? You don’t plan to study anymore?” Zhang Mei immediately tensed up and looked at Lin Miao worriedly.
“I don’t want to study anymore. If I continue to study, I don’t know when I’ll be able to pay off that three thousand yuan.”
When Gu Shan and Zhang Mei heard that, they immediately became anxious.
“No, you can’t go to work!” Gu Shan frowned and said hastily, “You are now a daughter of the Gu family. You lack nothing. Why go to work?”
Gu Shan’s eyes darkened. Lin Miao didn’t compare to Gu Zi in terms of appearance. Also, Lin Miao had come from the countryside. Gu Shan was worried that the Gong family wouldn’t look favorably upon their daughter who was from the countryside. He thought that Lin Miao should at least have a proper education, which would make her seem like an intellectual. It would boost her reputation.
He really couldn’t understand why the Lin family was so shameless. They had accepted a dowry of three thousand yuan from the groom, but they still refused to return the money when the marriage was canceled.
Ordinary people earned only thirty to forty yuan a month. Even if Lin Miao went to work, who knows when she could earn that much money.
If it were just a hundred or so yuan, he would have been willing to pay for Gu Zi to be free of the marraige. After all, he had watched Gu Zi grow up.
But three thousand yuan was not a small sum.
Perhaps he should force the Lin family to return the money.
In any case, although Gu Zi had been wronged, Lin Miao had already suffered for more than twenty years. He did not want any more trouble for Lin Miao.
A glimmer of determination flashed in Lin Miao’s eyes. There was no way she would go to work for Gu Zi. Her strategy was to feign pity so that Gu family would not want to have anything to do with Gu Zi anymore.
