80s Wife Is Sweet and Sassy - Chapter 9
Chapter 9 – Handsome but Useless Gu Ye (3)
However, this silly daughter couldn’t get along with Chu Qiao since she was a child. He Jihong could see it clearly, Ten times out of ten, all the quarrels were provoked by her daughter. Chu Qiao was obedient and timid. She would definitely not dare to provoke her daughter. But as long as the troubles weren’t known by outsiders, she pretended not to see and protected her daughter.
Just a stepdaughter, it was okay as long as they didn’t starve her to death.
Moreover, Chu Qiao was very beautiful. She had deliberately concealed her beauty these years. She just didn’t want Chu Qiao to steal people’s attention from her daughter. Chu Qiao was 21 years old now, and her daughter had married. She could let out some of Chu Qiao’s beauty, in hope that Gu Jianshe could be attracted.
Gu Jianshe was the favorite grandson of Old man Gu. The Gu family and He family were on the same level. Her daughter married Gu Ye, and Chu Qiao married her nephew Gu Jianshe. In this way, the Gu family and He family could be tied closely, and Chu Qiao would always be one generation lower than her daughter.
He Jihong was very proud, her arrangement was the most perfect. She got a good reputation and also benefited. Outsiders couldn’t pick any mistakes.
“Who made her so stupid? Didn’t she know how to wait a little longer to send it again?” Xu Bilian was still stubborn, but got a little scared. After all, heatstroke could really kill people and Chu Qiao almost died yesterday.
She was not worried about Chu Qiao’s death, but she was worried if this bumpkin’s death would damage her reputation.

“When was Chu Qiao not listening to what you said like an imperial decree?”
He Jihong said angrily, but she was still proud of it, because the stepdaughter was raised like a dog by her. If she let Chu Qiao go to the west, Chu Qiao wouldn’t dare to go to the east. Just let Chu Qiao obediently stay at home like a slave, it will be much cheaper than hiring a nanny.
Chu Qiao, who was in the room, quickly went back to the bed. She lived in the smallest room in the house. It was originally a storage room and was arranged by He Jihong to use it as her bedroom. The room was narrow, stuffy, and hot. There was only one tiny window and no fan. There were only two fans in the house, one was used by He Jihong’s husband, and the other used by He Jihong’s son, Chu Peng.
Chu Peng was her half-brother. He was 17 years old this year. He was a sophomore in senior high school. Their relationship was ordinary. He Jihong loved her son very much, and didn’t let her have much contact with him.
The door opened, He Jihong felt the sultry heat when she came. She couldn’t help but frown. When she went to the bed, she saw Chu Qiao’s eyes closed. Chu Qiao’s face was pale, and her eyebrows tightened. She didn’t want to cook lunch on such a hot day.
“Qiao Qiao, do you feel any better?” He Jihong softened her voice and reached out to touch her forehead. Thanks to the cramped room, Chu Qiao’s whole body was warm, no need for pretending.
“Still uncomfortable…… No strength……”
Chu Qiao opened her eyes, spoke feebly, and coughed a few times. In her previous life, she was too honest and obedient, so she was bullied to death. In this life, she would live happily and never be wronged again.
