Marrying a childless superior, she became pregnant and lived a carefree life in the 1970s.

Chapter 144 I hope you can persuade Ah-Xi to divorce that country woman.

“He’s right beside me,” Gu Jianing said through gritted teeth. “Don’t talk nonsense.”

"I suspect Wen Zhuqing might harm our family! Have you forgotten about Mother's pig poisoning incident?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Yunzhou breathed a sigh of relief, but his expression immediately turned serious. They knew about the poisoning incident involving the pigs raised by their mother in the village. It was Ningning who saved those pigs; otherwise, who knows what the consequences would have been.

Later, Ningning and the others analyzed the matter and concluded that it was highly likely that Wen Zhuqing was responsible, but there was no evidence.

Now, is Wen Zhuqing going to target their family again?
A cold glint flashed in Gu Yunzhou's eyes, and he then recounted the situation of Wen Zhuqing and Bao Shanyan.

"Third Brother, you said Bao Shanyan is pregnant?"

"Yes, it should have been three months."

Gu Jianing remained silent. Bao Shanyan's child was definitely Wen Zhuqing's, but she was certain that Wen Zhuqing had no expectations for the child. If she had the opportunity to leave Bao Shanyan later, Wen Zhuqing might very well abandon or kill the child.

But what if this child is Wen Zhuqing's only child?

Gu Jianing was secretly pondering something.

"Third brother, I suspect that Wen Zhuqing is planning to harm our father and sister-in-law. When you get back, tell the family about this, and then keep a close eye on Wen Zhuqing. I think he might take action soon."

"Okay, I see."

"Yes, you must let me know if there is any news afterward."

The reason this matter was entrusted to the third brother is because he is the smartest of all the brothers, and he is also the most thoughtful, or rather, the most considerate and meticulous.

She felt most at ease leaving it to her third brother.

Finally, Gu Jianing reluctantly hung up the phone.

"Why don't you call Grandpa and Grandma?" Gu Jianing handed the phone to Sheng Zexi.

Sheng Zexi took the phone and started making a call.

At this time, an uninvited guest arrived at the home of Sang's maternal grandparents, who were far away in Beijing. The elderly couple did not look very well.

The person sitting on the opposite sofa was Sheng Zexi's father, Sheng Xinhao.

"Mom and Dad..." Sheng Xinhao had just started to speak when he was interrupted by his maternal grandfather.

"Don't call us Mom and Dad, we don't deserve that title."

Sheng Xinhao was embarrassed, but he wasn't angry. "Mom and Dad, even though Awan has left, I am still your son-in-law."

“No, you’ve already married and have a son. Your parents-in-law are other people.” Grandpa Sang didn’t give Sheng Xinhao any face, even though Sheng Xinhao was now in a very high position.

Sheng Xinhao sighed, "Mom and Dad, I thought you understood me. I was young when Awan left, and I was in that position. I had no choice. Besides, Wanrong is a good woman."

Grandma Sang gave a soft scoff and did not reply.

Fang Wanrong was a good woman? Are your eyes blinded by dung?
Grandpa Sang also said frankly, "What brings you here today? Just tell us quickly, we're busy and can't entertain you."

Sheng Xinhao's expression was slightly unpleasant. To be honest, now that he's in this position, no one dares to disrespect him, no matter where he goes; they all treat him with utmost respect and deference.

But since his maternal grandparents had embarrassed him like that, he couldn't say anything. He knew that the old couple strongly disapproved of his marriage to Wanrong.

Actually, he would understand if they were Awan's parents.

But Wanrong was also a good woman, and he couldn't do anything about it from his position.

Seeing the old couple's impatience, and remembering the purpose of his visit, he said, "I know, Ah Xi married a country girl. Mom and Dad, you know Ah Xi's background. How could he marry a country girl?"

Upon hearing this, Grandpa and Grandma Sang were both unhappy.

“You keep calling me a country girl, but have you forgotten that most of us went back three generations to the countryside and were all peasants? What’s wrong, Sheng Xinhao? Now that you’re in a high position, you’ve started to forget your roots?” Grandpa Sang retorted without hesitation.

"That's not what I meant!" Sheng Xinhao was embarrassed, so his words were quite harsh.

Fortunately, he said it at home. If he had said it outside, others would have heard it, and his competitors would have attacked him.

Grandma Sang also said, "When Xiaoxi and Ning got married, my husband and I attended the wedding. We met that girl; she's a good girl. It's a blessing for Xiaoxi to marry her."

Grandpa and Grandma Sang were very satisfied with Gu Jianing.

From the very first meeting, they had a very good impression of Gu Jianing, and they also trusted Sheng Zexi's judgment.

Although the young couple is now in the Northwest Military Region, they always think of their elderly parents, calling them or writing letters and packages to them.

Sheng Xinhao scoffed inwardly. What kind of good fortune could marrying a country girl be?

“Mom and Dad, you should be aware of Ah Xi’s current status. He is very likely to inherit my position and resources in the future. His future is limitless. He needs a wife with status, background and knowledge to assist him.”

“How could a country girl with little education and no background possibly help him? She might even hold him back.”

"Therefore, I hope you can consider Ah-Xi's feelings more. I know that Ah-Xi listens to you the most. If possible, I hope you can persuade Ah-Xi to divorce that woman."

The word "divorce" exploded in the minds of the elderly couple the moment it came out of Sheng Xinhao's mouth.

Divorce? I can't believe that bastard Sheng Xinhao could actually say that.

Grandma Sang usually has a good temper, but she couldn't hold back this time either.

"So, you're saying that you married Awan because you were interested in her background and status, and thought she would be beneficial to your future?"

"Sheng Xinhao, is there only profit in your eyes, and no family affection at all?"

"Now that you've married a new wife and had a younger son, and now you don't care about Ah-Xi anymore, then you shouldn't interfere with any of Ah-Xi's decisions."

"Ah-Xi finally met someone he liked and was so happy to propose. My husband and I hope they can be a loving couple and grow old together."

"At least this way, my poor grandson, who has lost his mother and whose biological father has become his stepfather, will have someone to love and care for him after we die. But you, you bastard, actually want them to divorce and expect us to persuade them?"

How could you be so heartless!

Grandma Sang stood up and started yelling at Sheng Xinhao.

Sheng Xinhao, who was being scolded, looked even uglier and felt extremely wronged.

He admitted that he married Sang Yuwan because of her resources and background, but it is undeniable that he also liked Sang Yuwan and favored his son with her, Sheng Zexi. Otherwise, he would not have thought of planning for him and wanting to give him all the resources.
