Abandoned after first marriage due to infertility, married into a wealthy family and had two childre
Chapter 397: Sense of Disappointment
Gu Wenxing, who has had marriage experience, naturally understands the restraint of a daughter-in-law when interacting with her in-laws.
Therefore, she sincerely counseled Bai Xiaowei and gave her family members a good person card:
"Xiaowei, grandma just wanted you to have a simple meal at our house, and she didn't tell you in advance. If there's anything rude, it was us who were rude first.
The Gu family doesn't have so many rules. Everyone is easy to get along with. Besides, Xiaorui and I are here, and grandma likes you so much. What are you worried about?"
Despite Gu Wenxing's comfort, Bai Xiaowei always felt that it would not look good to go to someone's house empty-handed for the first time.
She knew that the economic gap between herself and the Gu family was wider than the Milky Way between the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl.
However, the gap is the gap, and the upbringing is the upbringing.
Seeing that he couldn't convince Bai Xiaowei, Gu Wenxing pretended to look at the sky and said, "Xiaowei, it's getting late. I guess everyone is waiting for us to go back and have dinner."
These words made Bai Xiaowei, who had already opened the car door and was about to get out to buy gifts, hesitate.
Yes, it is certainly impolite to come empty-handed.
But it would be even more rude to make the whole host family wait while you are late.
Comparing the two, she could only compromise: "Okay, I'll have to make it up next time."
Gu Wenxing pursed his lips and smiled: "I will explain it to everyone."
This is Bai Xiaowei's first visit to the Gu family.
Many years later, when her grandchildren had grown up and were acting cute around her, she could still remember the shock she felt when she first stepped into the Gu family manor.
That day, the gate of the manor slowly opened with her arrival, and she sat in the car, driving on the wide, long and quaint road.
On both sides of the road, carefully trimmed green plants are arranged in an orderly manner, like loyal guards, guarding this luxurious territory.
When servants passing by saw the car, they would stop and bow to her.
The car stopped at the door of a magnificent villa. A servant came forward to open the door for them and enthusiastically offered his hand to help them get out of the car.
Gu Wenxing handed his hand to the servant, his gentle eyes full of light: "We are home."
Unlike her familiarity and familiarity, Bai Xiaowei was completely unfamiliar with all this.
She mechanically followed Gu Wenxing's example and asked the servant to help her get out of the car.
When they looked up, they saw that everyone in the Gu family who heard the voice had come out and were standing on the steps, looking at them with smiles on their faces.
Looking at the well-dressed and noble Gu family members, Bai Xiaowei felt strange in her heart again.
It's not that she was feeling sorry for herself, but this seemed very different from the life she knew.
At this moment, she once again realized how different her life was from Gu Wenrui's.
When she was struggling to make ends meet, unable to eat enough, and had no idea how to pay for her tuition and living expenses.
Wenrui, Wenxing and others have already witnessed the ultimate wealth in this world.
At this moment, she suddenly understood those women who were trying their best to marry into a wealthy family.
You'll get married eventually.
If you marry an ordinary person, you will have to work during the day and wash and serve the family at night for the rest of your life.
If you marry a rich young man, you will have to go to work during the day, or maybe you don't even need to go to work. There will be servants to take care of your daily life, and drivers and bodyguards to accompany you when you go out. All you need to do is give an order and there will naturally be people running around to do the work.
Maybe, you don’t even need to take care of your children.
Wealthy families attach great importance to the cultivation of their descendants. From the moment a child is born, someone has already paved the way for their future.
Some people say that getting married is like being reborn with your eyes open, and it is indeed true.
It turns out that getting married can really change your destiny.
Bai Xiaowei felt a growing sense of disappointment, but she controlled her expression well and did not reveal anything unusual.
Gu Wenrui stepped down the stairs, took Bai Xiaowei's hand from the servant, frowned slightly and observed her expression. What's wrong with this little woman?
He cast an inquiring look at Gu Wenxing.
Gu Wenxing looked at him puzzledly, then turned around and explained to his family with a smile: "Grandma, Dad, Mom, on our way back, Xiaowei wanted to buy you gifts, but I stopped her. I'm hungry after a busy day and want to eat quickly. You won't blame me, right?"
When it comes to welcoming and seeing off guests, the Gu family are all savvy people, so how could they not understand the deeper meaning behind Gu Wenxing's words?
Madam Gu smiled and took Bai Xiaowei's other hand, scolding her: "You are just a polite child. Grandma just asked you to come to our house for a meal. You are pregnant and you are tired from working all day. Leave these trivial matters to Ah Xiu in the future."
Following Madam Gu's words, a dignified and virtuous middle-aged woman came over, stood at the bottom of the steps, bowed to Bai Xiaowei, and said with a smile: "Young Madam, my name is He Xiu, and I will be responsible for taking care of your daily life from now on. If you have any instructions, just tell me, I will do my best, and thank you for your guidance."
This is too much of a fuss.
Bai Xiaowei was stunned and waved her hand to refuse: "No, old lady, Aunt Shu is already taking care of me, and Wen Rui has also found two aunts. I am not at home during the day, so why do I need so many people..."
Madam Gu made the decision directly: "Okay, don't be polite to grandma. Grandma still complains that there are not enough people to serve you and can't take good care of you."
Bai Xiaowei was about to refuse, but Jiang Luoqing suddenly said, "Don't stand at the door. Xiaowei is pregnant and needs to rest well."
These words were beyond everyone's expectations.
Bai Xiaowei was also shocked.
Is this still the same Mrs. Gu who speaks harshly, sabotages others, and is biased towards the Pacific Ocean?
To be honest, Bai Xiaowei had a very bad impression of Jiang Luoqing.
It's not just because of the unpleasantness of their first meeting, but also because Wenrui has been lacking maternal love since childhood.
She loved Gu Wenrui, so she felt sorry for him and also hated the person who caused all this.
But now, Jiang Luoqing took the lead in showing goodwill.
Bai Xiaowei couldn't just turn a cold shoulder at her, so she could only nod at her and greet her politely.
The biggest variable is that Jiang Luoqing won’t do anything weird, and the other people in the Gu family won’t do that either.
The atmosphere was harmonious for a moment.
Everyone walked into the restaurant chatting and laughing and sat down to eat.
Thus, Bai Xiaowei once again witnessed the luxury and extravagance of the rich family's dining.
Although there were quite a few people dining there, the number of dishes was so staggering that one could have wished they had the entire Manchu-Han banquet.
Madam Gu picked up a piece of food for Bai Xiaowei with chopsticks and said, "Eat more. You are too thin. It hurts me to see you."
Bai Xiaowei suppressed her frustration and picked up the food to eat.
When Mrs. Gu saw this, her eyes narrowed with smiles.
The more I see this well-behaved granddaughter-in-law, the more I like her.
"Plant a seed in your heart..."
Bai Xiaowei's cell phone suddenly rang. She quickly reached into her pocket and pressed the button, and the music stopped abruptly.
Seeing everyone looking at her, her ears became hot: "Sorry..."
Gu Wenrui helped her take out her phone from her pocket. Seeing her acting like a young wife, he couldn't help but tease her, "Why are you so nervous? Where did you hide your sharp tongue during the debate?"
Bai Xiaowei glared at him: "That's all work-related."
Gu Wenrui smiled and turned the phone towards her: "Reply to this one, it's from Zhang Aimeng."
Love cute?
Why are you looking for her at this time?
She shook her head: "It's okay, I'll be back later."
Just as I finished speaking, I heard WeChat’s “ding dong” sound several times.
It was a voice message from Zhang Aimeng.
She took the phone and was about to put it in her pocket, but Gu Wenrui moved around her hand, unlocked the phone, and clicked on voice-to-text.
Then, he raised his eyebrows in amusement and handed the phone back to me: "Hey, help me."
