Chapter 31: Her Father Was Awesome! (2/2)

Although she had worked hard all day and brought so much food back, she had not eaten a single mouthful herself. Instead, she had hurried back to the Gu family under the cover of darkness, just in time to eat dinner.

Gu Qingyao inwardly laughed coldly, but did not say anything. Instead, she just carried her baskets and went in.

Zhang Xiaohui was enraged. But she was exhausted and did not want to quibble with the little bitch. She thought she might as well fill her belly and have a good sleep first.

But when she reached the kitchen door, she saw that it was locked.

Zhang Xiaohui was shocked. “Why did you lock the door? Don’t you know I haven’t eaten?”

She glared at Gu Qingyao who was sitting next to the well, her eyes spitting fire.

Gu Qingyao smiled. “Didn’t you go back to your natal home? I thought your mother would certainly give you a warm welcome since you brought so much food back! A filial daughter like you is rare!”

“You…”

Gu Qingyao had hit her where it hurt and Zhang Xiaohui immediately grew angry. “Brat, how dare you talk to me like that?”

Gu Qingyao did not say anything. Gu Yunshen walked out of the house, glanced at Gu Qingyao and said, “Go into the house and rest! Have an early night. I’ll wash these.”

Gu Qingyao glanced at her father and obediently went in.

She could hear her father dealing with Zhang Xiaohui behind her. Gu Qingyao could hear Zhang Xiaohui’s yells from the house. Then her father said a few simple words, and there was silence.

She held the keys to the kitchen. Silence meant that her father had dealt with Zhang Xiaohui, and she would not be having dinner tonight.

Gu Qingyao was in a good mood. The sky had turned completely dark now. She went to her living interspace to cook, preparing food for herself and Mo Beihan when they go up the mountain the next day.
