What does it mean that Mr. Gu respects you very much?
Cuiping looked at her figure running downstairs briskly, and was very envious. She was so protected by Mr. Gu, and she had no idea what kind of storm this house had set off before she knew it.
The incident happened three days ago. Cuiping regularly helped them sort out expired medicines and some daily necessities, and would make a list for them to see if they needed to purchase more.
That day, I cleaned out a basket of bottles and jars from their master bedroom, mainly Yaoyao's things, some vitamins she usually takes, and some skin care products.
When I came down from upstairs, I happened to meet Mother Gu. She saw a lot of unopened and expired skin care products, which made her a little sad: "Don't throw them away yet. I'll take a look at them later."
There are thousands of bottles and cans, so it would be a pity to throw them away. I thought I could use them as hand cream.
Cuiping put the basket of things there and went about doing other things.
Gu's mother usually has nothing to do. She watches too many typical eight o'clock programs. They say that art comes from life. For some reason, when she saw the bottle of expired vitamins, an idea flashed in her mind, so she opened the bottle and took out a vitamin to observe.
After waiting for a long time, there was a row of very small letters on the small vitamin tablet. She didn't understand English, so she went online on her mobile phone and typed in letters one by one. Halfway through, the keywords behind them came out.
It's a birth control pill, not a vitamin. She immediately turned pale and called Cuiping to question
: "Is this the vitamin Yaoyao usually takes?"
"Yes, she has been eating this brand."
Needless to say, it was obvious that Gu Ruandong was secretly taking birth control pills without telling Gu Ruandong, otherwise there would be no need to switch to vitamin bottles.
Gu's mother's anger grew steadily. It was the anger of being cheated and the sadness of being disrespected. She held the bottle tightly in the living room and sat there from afternoon to dusk.
That night, Yaoyao had to go home very late from filming a night scene. Gu Ruandong came home from work and was about to change his clothes before picking her up. As soon as he got home, a bottle was smashed in the corner of the dark living room and landed at his feet.
After rolling around, the lights in the living room were turned on.
Gu Ruandong looked at his mother with a cold eyebrow. This was the first time in his adult life that his mother had dared to get so angry in front of him.
Gu's mother was used to being cowardly and had always been afraid of her son, but this time her bottom line was touched and she couldn't bear it.
"Is this how you spoil her?"
Gu Ruandong didn't know why, "What's the matter?"
Mother Gu strode over, picked up the bottle on the ground and threw it into his hand: "Look for yourself and see clearly what kind of medicine this is. How did she treat you when you spoiled her?"
Gu Ruandong had a sullen face, unscrewed the bottle, poured out two pills and looked at the letters. Although the letters were small, the light was bright and he looked carefully. The English words about contraception were extremely dazzling.
He lowered his eyelids and looked at the contraceptive pill in his palm, with no fluctuations in his expression. After a few seconds, he raised his eyes and looked at his mother: "What's the problem? I asked her to take it."
Mother Gu suddenly froze on the spot, the expression on her face changed from anger to disbelief to despair, giving up.
: "Gu Ruandong, Gu Ruandong, just deceive yourself and others."
What responded to her was the figure of Gu Ruandong walking upstairs.
Only then did Cuiping appear in the darkness, silently pouring her a glass of warm water, and silently taking away the bottles and jars, as if nothing had happened.
Gu's mother had given up completely. The look in his eyes when he last looked at her just now was clearly to protect Lu Yaoyao and to warn her not to interfere in their husband and wife's affairs.
She should have realized a long time ago that this son is equivalent to nothing. Why does she care about this? Even if she gives birth to a grandson or granddaughter, what can she get except for the identity of multiple grandmothers? Cross-generational marriage does not exist.
