Chapter 565: Chapter 565

Mr. Gu slightly opened his mouth, facing his son-in-law’s words, he actually couldn’t respond.

He always felt that his son-in-law’s words weren’t quite right, but he didn’t know what the matter was, and he couldn’t get a clear grasp on it.

"Ahem." Mr. Gu coughed twice and said to Yebai, "You don’t have to give too huge a red packet to the two elders. I heard that your family is currently not doing well financially."

Mr. Gu got this information from asking Gu Erbo later. Gu Erbo very affirmatively told Mr. Gu, saying it was very definite news, that a family named Xiao was facing the risk of being acquired.

The son-in-law’s surname was Xiao.

Mr. Gu didn’t believe that his younger brother’s family would lie about this matter, so he had kept the words in his mouth for a long time. But ultimately, he had to discuss it with his son-in-law, because his daughter had married this man, and they needed to live their daily lives, requiring the essentials like firewood, rice, oil, and salt.

Yebai didn’t know how much Mr. Gu knew, but since Yebai never lied, he would surely tell the truth. So he said to Mr. Gu, "Dad, I never care about my family’s money. I always earn my own money and spend it on my own."

"Is that so?" Mr. Gu was somewhat surprised.

Aren’t rich second generations usually just spending their family’s money?

"Because my several sisters, they all really like the family’s money. I think it’s pointless to compete with them. Besides, shouldn’t a man always be generous to women?" Yebai spread his hands.

Hearing her husband’s words, Gu Nuan almost laughed.

I wonder what those few mother tigers of the Xiao Family would think if they heard their brother saying this.

"You have sisters?" Mr. Gu, hearing his son-in-law mention family matters, naturally wanted to know more.

"Yes, four." Yebai held up four fingers, "Four tigresses."

Oh—Mr. Gu had an enlightened expression, so that was the case.

It seemed this son-in-law didn’t have an easy time at home either. Of course, every family had its own difficult scripture, and it wasn’t necessarily the case that wealthy families were happy. Mr. Gu understood.

"The reason you like Nuannuan is—" Mr. Gu suddenly interrogated his son-in-law in front of his daughter.

Gu Nuan’s heart missed a beat, slightly startled. She had never thought to ask him that question. She always felt that men were like that, only saying nice things to her.

Now, with her dad asking, what would he say?

"Nuannuan doesn’t love money."

Yebai’s answer was too straightforward, too quick, catching the Gu father and daughter off guard.

Once they regained their composure, Mr. Gu couldn’t help but laugh loudly: this son-in-law really suited his taste.

Indeed, don’t men marry women who aren’t interested in money, but only love themselves?

"Very good." Mr. Gu highly praised his son-in-law Yebai.

So, he liked her because she wasn’t interested in money? Strange, when they initially agreed to get married, their discussions were all about money.

Gu Nuan suddenly realized, this man was really deep, like a bottomless pit.

They decided to visit Gu Erbo’s house again in a couple of days in the evening, because Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu had gone back to their rural home for a while and would return to the county town in a couple of days to live in the new house of Gu Erbo.

During this period, a piece of news was suddenly circulating everywhere in the county town.

It turned out that the company Gu Er-Aunt had invested in for financial products had recently expanded its business in this county town. Along with early investors like Gu Er-Aunt who had indeed received their money, everyone was talking about this new money-making channel. It should be said that everyone wants to engage in a business where they can just count money every day without needing to work. Who wouldn’t want to try such pie-in-the-sky business?
