Gu Sanbu now disliked even the sound of the name "He Guwu." He glared irritably at Gu Dashishi. "Your wife is right. You're getting on in years and should be setting an example for your descendants. It's best not to get involved with people who have ulterior motives."
Gu Dashishi retorted, "That Shi Family isn't that kind of person. She's a pitiful woman. She was widowed not long after marrying into the He Family and struggled to raise her daughter all by herself. With our family being so prosperous, how can we not make room for her and her daughter?"
Li Cuicui walked over and kicked him viciously again, sending him stumbling off the stool and onto the floor. "What 'so prosperous'? What does any of that have to do with you, Gu Dashishi?
And what does it have to do with that He Guwu? If you really find her life so pitiful, I can petition the clan to let you marry into her family. You can go to Shengdong Village and keep them company."
