Siheyuan: Rebirth of a comfortable life starts with Shazhu

Chapter 1077 Regret and Greed

After Guo Shumiao said goodbye and left, the old lady was still sobbing, while old man Guo was trembling all over.

The old lady was a little simple-minded. She just thought that the scheme against Guo Shumiao was too much, so Guo Shumiao chose to stay away and not get involved with them.

Her guilt was genuine, thinking about how she had held Guo Shumiao's little hand and expressed in front of her sister's spirit that she would treat Guo Shumiao as her own daughter, but in the end the "mother and daughter" ended up like this.

Old man Guo's trembling was because he was thinking more deeply and had something to hide. He wondered if this was He Yuzhu's revenge on the Guo family.

The old couple can't go into the city.

The eldest brother and his wife could not come into the city, and because of the cement factory, the people in Guojiazhuang maintained the same attitude, and no one sent a message from the eldest brother of the Guo family to the old couple.

Those who had the opportunity to move to the city these days were all capable people from various communes. People like them might not have other qualities, but they certainly had to have good eyes.

Who would dare to do this for the sake of the two scabby guys from the Guo family, offend Guo Lei from the supply and marketing cooperative, and He Yuzhu who has such a good relationship with the cement factory?
The incident happened recently, so the old couple knew about the change but had not yet thought of a way to deal with it.

Therefore, the ways of dealing with things are different at different levels.

The old couple still have the mentality of the common people. They think that they are using family affection and gratitude to hold Guo Shumiao hostage. The little girl must either get married or follow the path they have arranged. She has no other choice.

As for how the old couple would respond if the little girl really brought a boyfriend back home, they hadn’t thought about it yet.

But I won't let the little girl have it so easy.

However, I didn’t expect that He Yuzhu directly transferred Guo Shumiao away.

It was only at this time that Old Man Guo began to feel afraid. He knew that given the relationship between Guo Lei and He Yuzhu, even if He Yuzhu wanted to take revenge, he would not take revenge on them.

This is also the reason why he allowed the boss to plan this matter.

Of course, all the conspiracies and intrigues are hidden under the vision of "for her own good".

No matter how stupid the eldest son of the Guo family is, he would never say in front of the old couple that they are just after the house or that they are after Guo Shumiao's income.

Instead, he was doing all this under the pretext of doing it for Guo Shumiao's sake.

According to the eldest brother of the Guo family, it is just to force the little girl and let her take the initiative to think about finding a partner and solve the lifelong issue.

Only then did the old couple agree.

Of course, it is obvious whether the old couple understand all this in their hearts.

This is also the most disgusting practice regarding family relationships.

They all say "I'm doing this for your own good", but only they themselves know the specific reason.

And now, Guo Shumiao is out of the control of the old couple.

He Yuzhu had no intention of doing anything further to the eldest son of the Guo family. He chose to confront Guo Lei and tell him what the eldest son of the Guo family had done during this period. This was also an ultimatum.

For Guo Lei, it is a test of choosing between family affection and justice.

Fortunately, Guo Lei did not think about hiding the truth for his relatives, nor did he think about protecting a large family. Regarding Guo Shumiao's departure, Guo Lei did not say anything more except asking Guo Shumiao to write more letters home.

Guo Lei considers himself responsible for the current situation of the Guo family.

Guo Lei could naturally find his reasons for this kind of guilt. Guo Lei believed that after he got married, he should take over all the power of the Guo family, have a frank talk with his parents, and plan a good future for the eldest brother's family.

But Guo Lei did nothing at the time. He allowed his parents and eldest brother to scheme on his own, which led to the current situation.

Guo Lei was very depressed. He rarely took the initiative to find He Yuzhu to drink, but He Yuzhu had just drunk too much in the past two days and was frightened by Liu Ting. Now even if Guo Lei came to him, He Yuzhu refused the job of accompanying him to drink on the grounds that Liu Ting was pregnant.

Guo Lei didn't care. He came here today just to vent in front of his good friends.

So Guo Lei let He Yuzhu prepare two dishes, but he didn't eat a single bite and finished the whole bottle in one gulp.

While drinking, he didn't say a word. After drinking, he sat opposite He Yuzhu with his chin supported by one hand, not wanting to say anything.

He Yuzhu pushed a cup of strong tea in front of Guo Lei, patted him on the shoulder and said, "If there is anything you don't understand, tell me.

If you want to cry, I will leave and leave you here to cry."

He Yuzhu's teasing naturally aroused Guo Lei's anger. Guo Lei raised his hand and wanted to slap He Yuzhu, but he didn't expect that after He Yuzhu finished speaking, he had already retreated far away and was holding the teacup, sipping and laughing at Guo Lei.

Guo Lei leaned back heavily, sighed and said, "You are such a boring person."

He Yuzhu sneered, "Interesting people are always like you, struggling all the time, trying to take all the responsibility on themselves?"

"What else can I do?" Guo Lei was silent for a moment, but still said this in a depressed tone.

Guo Lei's meaning was very clear. He was the only promising one in the Guo family, so there was nothing he could do about it as his family members cared more about him.

This is what it means to be stuck in an emotional pit and unable to climb out.

The education he received from childhood to adulthood, as well as the good and bad cognition, have bound him in this cage called family affection.

He Yuzhu shook his head. If he and Guo Lei swapped identities and had no foreknowledge of what would happen next, he would also be confused.

This is the reason why it is said that every family has its own problems.

Seeing He Yuzhu was silent, Guo Lei said, "I have been regretting one thing recently. If I had taken the initiative to help my parents after I joined the supply and marketing cooperative, and had a frank talk with them, wouldn't things be so ugly today?"

He Yuzhu chuckled and said, "Did you know then that you would have so much power now? Did you know then that the supply and marketing society would develop so well?"

Guo Lei's regret is that he puts his current self into the shoes of the young Guo Lei at that time.

The current supply and marketing cooperative is the best unit on the market, and although Guo Lei's position does not seem surprising, he has been left far behind by He Yuzhu in terms of rank.

But any factory leader would look up to Guo Lei when they met him.

It can be said that if Guo Xiaosi had not encountered those problems, if Guo Lei had been selfish, he could have arranged one or several good positions for his eldest brother's family.

This is what Guo Lei felt guilty about. To him, if that were the case, would the eldest couple not have made such a fuss?
Wouldn't his parents be worried about the eldest brother's family and plot against the people around them?
This may seem a bit self-inflicted, but human emotions have caused too many such self-inflicted troubles.

He Yuzhu smiled bitterly and said, “To me, a greedy person will always think it’s not enough even if you give him too much.

Do you think your boss is greedy?"
