In Qin Sang's memory, grandma seemed to have always been kind and kind. She had never been angry with herself. She even often saw the shadow of her mother in her eyes.
She loved her very much, but she didn't even see her for the last time.
Gui's mother cried and her eyes turned red. Gui's mother and Qin Sang's mother had worked together in the Gu family. She was also an elder who watched Qin Sang grow up, and she had a very deep relationship with the old lady.
As soon as the old lady left, Gui Ma's world became empty.
At the funeral, she held Qin Sang's hand and said, "The old lady was talking about you before she left! She said that before you and Ah Shen had a child, the old lady said that our Sang Sang's child would definitely be very beautiful!"
Gui's mother couldn't stop her tears from falling down, and she burst into tears as she spoke.
In compliance with the old man's last wish, the funeral will be kept simple.
After the funeral, according to the custom of taking care of the family, Qin Sang and Gu Yanzhi had to go back to their hometown to stay for three days.
There was a dull and depressing feeling throughout the Gu family.
Sheng Huilan did not give Qin Sang a good look. Even at this time, she did not restrain her meanness and disgust towards her at all.
"You won't be living at home after you get married. The room you prepared before is already gathering dust. Mother Gui has been exhausted these past two days. You can go up and clean it up yourself."
Gui Ma stood aside and was about to step forward to help when she was stopped by Sheng Huilan.
Qin Sang twitched his lips but did not refuse.
"good."
"this......"
Gui's mother hesitated to speak and watched Qin Sang go up to the second floor alone.
Gu Yanzhi was in the study with his father. When he came out, Qin Sang was holding a lot of clothes and was about to wash them.
"What are you doing?"
"It's been there for too long and it has a musty smell."
Gu Yanzhi stared at her. After staying up late for several nights and eating irregularly, Qin Sang lost a lot of weight.
There was no color at all on his palm-sized face.
"Leave it alone, I'll ask someone to wash it."
I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, but as soon as the old lady left, Sheng Huilan gave all the servants a holiday, leaving Gui's mother alone. At this time, Gui's mother had been sent to buy groceries by Sheng Huilan.
There is no one at home.
"It washes quickly."
After saying that, Qin Sang passed by him holding a pile of bed sheets and quilt covers.
Just when Qin Sang was about to throw the sheets and quilt covers into the washing machine, Sheng Huilan happened to appear. She frowned and scolded: "These are silk fabrics and cannot be put in the washing machine! They can only be washed by hand!"
Qin Sang knew that this mother-in-law was deliberately making things difficult, but she was still attending to her grandma's wake and she didn't want to argue with her.
Isn't it just washing a few sheets and quilt covers? It's something she did when she was a child. There's no reason why she can't do it now.
Sheng Huilan looked at her swallowing her anger and curled her lips in satisfaction.
After Qin Sang washed all the bed sheets and quilt covers, he was so tired that he could not straighten up, and his fingers became wrinkled from being soaked for a long time.
When Gui's mother came back from shopping for groceries, she looked at her slender and beautiful hands and sighed: "If the old lady were still here, how distressed she would be!"
Gui's mother is a sensible person and knows that Mrs. Gu doesn't like her own daughter-in-law. She doesn't like her in her eyes and heart, but she likes girls outside very much!
But at best she is just a servant who has worked for the Gu family for many years. Once the old lady leaves, she will have to look at people's faces even if she speaks in front of her master.
"Mom Gui, it's okay."
Qin Sang didn't think anything of it. She would only stay here for three days.
Gui's mother gave her an angry look: "Go back and apply hand cream. With such beautiful hands, don't do such rough work in the future!"
"Um!"
Qin Sang went upstairs to his room.
When she walked to the door of the room, she saw Gu Yanzhi answering the phone on the balcony.
The room was spacious, with not many unnecessary furniture and furnishings. The position where he stood was directly facing the door.
Qin Sang heard him say: "This weekend?"
His tone was gentler than she had ever felt before.
Qin Sang's heart skipped a beat. Maybe it was a woman's innate sixth sense, or maybe she was nervous. She thought of the name Ni Ya told her.
"Send me the flight number then and I will pick you up."
"Well, it's pretty late over there, so go to bed early."
"See Weekend!"
.....
Qin Sang felt ashamed.
She is like a thief who can't help but peek into other people's lives.
Embarrassing and shameless.
Realizing that he was like this, Qin Sang regained his composure and strode in, even making a loud noise on purpose.
When Gu Yanzhi saw her coming in, his expression didn't hide anything.
“In the future, I don’t have to do this kind of work myself.”
Qin Sang was stunned for a moment and looked at him.
He added: "Even if my mother says it, you don't have to take it to heart."
If she hadn't heard him talking on the phone just now, Qin Sang felt that she might have been moved as well.

During lunch, the dining table was very quiet.
Sheng Huilan was eating her meal elegantly, when Leng Buding suddenly said: "Ayan, do you remember that Aunt Wang who played the guzheng?"
Gu Yanzhi paused and nodded: "Remember, what's wrong?"
Sheng Huilan smiled and said: "I heard that I recently got a grandson. I have been thinking about it for many years, and I finally look forward to it!"
Qin Sang glanced at her mother-in-law in surprise. She didn't expect that she would have such thoughts. She had never heard a word about her children since they got married.
Gu Yanzhi said nothing, but smiled in cooperation.
"But I heard that the child is not doing well. He has congenital heart disease and is still living in the intensive care unit!"
Qin Sang was distracted and one of the chopsticks fell out of his hand.
Gu Yanzhi and Sheng Huilan both looked at her, and Qin Sang looked a little unnatural: "Sorry!"
Sheng Huilan didn't pay attention and continued: "Today's food, air and so on are not very good. You young people are under a lot of pressure. Conception and pregnancy are also a natural process!"
Qin Sang's heart felt cold. It seemed that she had misunderstood. Her mother-in-law was still her mother-in-law.
"Actually, I don't have a very strong opinion on whether you should have children or not. It mainly depends on you! Besides, Sangsang hasn't graduated yet, so it's better not to rush into things and take care of yourself first."
Gu Yanzhi put down the bowl and chopsticks and said in a cold tone: "Mom, why are you talking about this now?"
Sheng Huilan shrugged: "That's what I said, mom doesn't want to put pressure on you~~"
Sheng Huilan knew that the old lady had told Qin Sang before her death that she was looking forward to having a great-grandson. She was afraid that if she really got pregnant with a child, she would really have to fight with the Gu family and cause chaos!
Moreover, now that the old lady is gone, she has the final say in this family!
"Furthermore, giving birth to a child is very harmful to a woman's body. Whether it's her face or figure, there are irreversible damages. Sangsang is still young, and I don't want her to suffer like this!"
Qin Sang curled her lips and put down her chopsticks, "Mom, I understand what you mean."
Sheng Huilan smiled and said: "Well, let's eat!"
Gu Yanzhi looked at Qin Sang, his thin lips tightened, and his sinister gaze swept over her body. Something was slowly passing away. He wanted to catch it, but he couldn't.
