Reborn to inherit a 100 billion fortune, the real daughter is crazy
Chapter 176 The plan is doomed to fail
Mo Li looked arrogant and it was obvious that he didn't take the Gu family seriously at all.
Gu Kai only regretted why he said that. What was the status of their Gu family? They even wanted the heir of the Chi family to honor them and attend their old man's birthday party?
No wonder Mo Li mocked them in such a sharp tone, anyone would think they were overestimating their own abilities.
……
Despite the chaos outside, Mr. Gu remained calm and unaffected.
Grandpa Gu sat upright in a very comfortable wheelchair. Although his cheeks were thin and he looked old, his overall spirit was still very good. Although his eyes were a little cloudy, they still looked bright and lively.
The old man had injured his legs and feet when he was young. Although he was cured at that time, he became weaker and weaker as he grew older. Rheumatism caused the old injuries to relapse, resulting in his current difficulty in walking. He can only sit in a wheelchair all year round, and has to rely on servants to take care of his eating, drinking, defecating and urinating.
Fortunately, although the Gu family is not as prosperous as it used to be, it has not fallen to the point where it has to reduce the number of servants for the old man, so the old man is still taken care of meticulously and is in good condition. Especially after seeing Mo Li, the whole person smiled happily, and his wrinkled eyes were almost narrowed into slits.
When Mo Li saw Grandpa Gu again, he felt as if he was in another world.
She put away her sharp edge, walked up to the old man, and said respectfully: "Grandpa Gu, Xiaoli is here to congratulate you on your birthday. I wish you a long life and endless blessings in the future."
Grandpa Gu's voice was hoarse, a voice that only belongs to the elderly. He looked at Mo Li with loving and doting eyes: "Xiao Li, you are finally here. Grandpa has been waiting for you for a long time. It's been such a long time since we last met. Come here and let me take a good look at you."
I still remember that in my previous life, it was a similar scene. At Grandpa Gu’s birthday party, they sat together and chatted like an ordinary grandfather and grandson. Grandpa Gu touched her head lovingly and encouraged her, telling her to work hard on the college entrance examination and strive to get into a good university, so that he could bring glory to his old face.
Mo Li also vowed to Grandpa Gu that she would not let him down and would come to visit the old man again after the college entrance examination and try to bring him the good news.
Unexpectedly, she missed the most important exam in her life due to illness. She felt that she had failed to live up to Grandpa Gu's expectations and was too ashamed to come and see the old man again. Not long after, she was sent by the Chu family to the hands of the unscrupulous agent Xing Yunlu, and completely lost her personal freedom. She was tortured both physically and mentally. Not long after, Grandpa Gu's condition suddenly worsened, and his health deteriorated day by day, and he passed away soon after.
The meeting at the old man's birthday party turned out to be the last meeting between the grandfather and grandson.
So much so that every time Mo Li thought of Grandpa Gu, she felt regretful. She felt that the old man treated her like his own granddaughter, and she should spend more time with him.
However, every time he thought about it afterwards, Mo Li always felt that there was something strange about Mr. Gu's death.
Although Grandpa Gu is indeed old, the Gu family is well-off. Compared with the elderly of the same age, he has always been well taken care of and is relatively healthy. As far as she knows, Grandpa Gu has no serious illness except for some common minor ailments and inconvenience in his legs and feet. In addition, the old man usually cultivates his character and has a good work and rest schedule. No matter how you look at it, living to the age of 90 is not a big problem. How could he die of illness so soon?
Mo Li always felt that this matter was related to their Gu family, and that someone must be behind it.
As for the biggest suspect, Mo Li silently turned his attention to Gu Xuehui's mother, the second daughter-in-law of the Gu family.
Tonight's dinner was hosted by the Gu family. Gu Tingyan's mother, Mrs. Gu, was like a flamboyant butterfly, flitting among the guests, shouldering the responsibility of socializing with the ladies of each family. The second daughter-in-law of the Gu family was dressed relatively plainly, and stood honestly in an unnoticed corner with her husband who loved fishing, playing the role of a foil.
Many people know that the two sons of the Gu family have a clear division of labor. The responsibility of managing the family group is given to the eldest son's family, while the second son's family is responsible for taking care of household chores. So the couple of the second son's family are addicted to fishing and playing cards and mahjong all day long. They can be said to be real rich and idle people.
While Mo Li patiently chatted with Grandpa Gu, she squinted her eyes slightly and looked at the second wife of the Gu family. Because she was too suspicious, she had privately asked someone to investigate the second wife some time ago. Unexpectedly, she actually made some discoveries.
Just looking at the plain appearance of the second wife of the Gu family, no one would have thought that this middle-aged woman went out every day not just to play mahjong to kill time. She had long been led into the game by someone with ulterior motives and became addicted to various types of gambling. She had also incurred huge gambling debts without the knowledge of her entire family.
If Grandpa Gu died, the biggest beneficiary would naturally be the second son's family. Firstly, the burden on her as a daughter-in-law would be much lighter, and she would no longer have to worry about taking care of the old man. Secondly, as the chairman of the Chinese Painting Association, the old man had considerable personal assets. Inheriting the estate alone would be enough to pay off the gambling debts she owed outside.
If one wanted to kill Grandpa Gu without making any noise, Second Madam Gu would be the most convenient person to do it, not to mention she had a motive.
Mo Li guessed that the second wife must have been anxiously pressed by the creditors, so she took the risk and tampered with Mr. Gu's meals to make him pass away as soon as possible.
But in this life, her little plan was destined to fail.
……
Grandpa Gu held Mo Li's hand and exchanged pleasantries for a long time. Gu Xuesui, who was standing by, was so angry that she stared blankly. She really didn't know how this little bitch could compare to her? Her own grandpa was even closer to her than to herself!
Madam Gu secretly pulled her arm and reminded her in a low voice: "Sui Sui, don't forget what I told you yesterday! Have you prepared the confession? I can let you off the hook for what happened before, but now that all the guests are here, you should apologize to Lili in public to ease the relationship between us. Don't be so mean to her in the future!"
Gu Xuehui looked unconvinced, but she still agreed out of habit: "I know, auntie, I'm not a child anymore, I will definitely do what I promised you! It's just to apologize to her, it's not a big deal..."
——Want her to apologize? I'm afraid you're just dreaming! She stayed up until midnight yesterday and wrote a nearly 2,000-word manuscript to scold Mo Li. She will definitely make her lose face later!
