Chapter 905 Too Unlovable

It’s so unlovable. It’s all over the place. Zhou Banxia retracted his arm and raised his other arm high, “I’m stretching my whole body.

My physique is fine, but my brain seems to have amnesia. When I was acting coquettishly with mom, I already remembered to remind you to cooperate.

How could I forget such an important thing? I must be too happy when I saw you. Your face is poisonous. I am so happy when I see it that I forget everything.

Wait a minute, before you came back, what did I want to say to you at first? Let me think about it. Dajiang, no, my father, no, this brain!”

What to do?

Gu Wenxuan quickly caught her fist that was about to hit her head, “Are you stupid? Doesn’t it hurt? If you can’t remember it, then don’t remember it. You can talk about it later when you remember it.”

“No, it seems like I have something very important to tell you. What is it?” Zhou Banxia looked up at him, frowning with a distressed look on his face as he recalled.

“Silver, return gift, letter?”

Zhou Banxia was stunned for a moment, then smiled in surprise, “Yes, thanks to your reminder, I finally remembered. I was just waiting for you to come back and read the letter!
I haven’t read it yet. I wanted to wait for you to come back from eating with your parents so that we can read the letters together. I asked Mai Huang to find those letters and put them in our room.

Come on, let’s go inside first. How can you say I have amnesia? If you hadn’t reminded me, I would have forgotten that I almost wanted to have a sneak peek half an hour ago.

Yes, besides waiting for you to come back and read the letter together, I also want you to reply for me. Our mother hasn’t given me the gift list yet. She told you, right?
The gifts that came later had to wait for Uncle Chang Qing to arrive, otherwise I wouldn’t know how to reply properly. Also, I didn’t know what gifts I received from my parents.

It would be better to wait for my father or Dajiang to come tonight. My memory is not good now, and I forget many things after I hear them. It will depend on you to listen and think about how to reply more appropriately.

Although the favors done for my parents are my mother’s family’s business and my mother’s family has its own way of doing favors, they are still more or less related to the two of us.

We have to repay this favor, and I hope those families will follow the rules and not suddenly add generous gifts, otherwise the favor book that we have finally sorted out will have to be changed again.”

As Gu Wenxuan supported her and walked towards the inner room, he wanted to say that it would definitely have to be revised again when he heard this. With Dajiang’s decision to kiss him, the situation would inevitably rise again.

Let’s not talk about other families, just talk about the Gao family. The favors they ask for are one higher than the other, and it’s difficult to return the favors if you don’t have some wealth.

“Don’t worry, the general direction won’t be messed up. At most, we can just move up a level according to the favors recorded in the favors book. If it’s still not enough, we can just make up for it with the fine products produced in our own workshop.

That’s why I said that fruit wine and other things still need to be prepared. Let’s make another fine fruit wine later, and then customize a few bottles of it in porcelain bottles, and then put them in a wooden box?

Isn’t it too high-end? If not, there are several workshops with several exquisite gift boxes. Let’s get them all. Don’t get too many, just two boxes of each. Don’t make it more rare than ginseng or bird’s nest!”

Zhou Banxia couldn’t help but nod, “That makes sense. It can also help you advertise. Even if it’s bricks and tiles, you can still make a high-quality gift box, right?”

“Of course, there are also strange stones. It all depends on how you operate them. Your man is not bragging. If I didn’t want to make too many things, and if every family would be proud to receive a return gift from our family, I, your man, could make thousands of exquisite gift boxes for you without spending a penny. You are so talented, but also troubled.”

“…Where’s the rope?”

“What for?” “To tie you up. If I don’t tie you up with a rope, what will happen if you drift away one day?” Zhou Banxia said with a smile and pointed at the letters placed on the dressing table not far away.

I see. Now comes the serious business.

It’s such a big letter, but there are only so many letters in it. I don’t know who was so talented to tie it up with a thin hemp rope. It will be a disaster when they are opened. No wonder his wife wanted to wait for him to come back to read the letters together.

“Are these letters from Master’s wife and the others?” Gu Wenxuan had good eyesight. Before he, who was supporting his wife, approached the dressing table, he saw a bundle of letters placed on the top.

“Yes, these are letters from my aunt and my eldest brother. I just don’t know if there are any letters written by my eldest sister-in-law on her behalf. If I’m not mistaken, there should be some.

After all, my mother said it yesterday, and even Aunt Kong wrote to me. My eldest sister-in-law has a baby boy, and not only are my aunts happy, but Aunt Kong is also relieved.

Because of her eldest sister-in-law’s previous miscarriage, she felt sorry for her in-laws. This time, she was excited that her uncle and aunt could hold their eldest grandson.

She even said that she was blessed to have me as her sister-in-law, which shows how happy Aunt Kong was. I’m afraid my sister-in-law must be very happy too.

She was about to be happy, but it was not convenient for her to see guests during her confinement period. Nine times out of ten, she couldn’t help but ask her personal maid to write to me about her recent feelings.

For example, she comforted me by telling me that giving birth didn’t hurt at all, that the confinement period was boring but happy, and that she thought the child looked like someone, etc.

In short, my sister-in-law must want to talk to me, her younger sister-in-law. She knows that I am tight-lipped and that interacting with me more will make my aunt and elder brother happy.

After all, with the eldest sister-in-law’s mindset, she would most likely think of some other things next, like whether she should let the people in the eldest brother’s room stop drinking the contraceptive soup since she already has a legitimate son.

Although I didn’t have much contact with her, but after reading many of her letters, I could tell that the education she received was very similar to that of the Gao family. She would rather slap the maid around her than let her eldest brother be led astray.

She, like the eldest daughter of the Gao family, has a son, but is still afraid that her husband will take a concubine one day and the concubine will be out of her control. She even wants to use the indentures of the maids around her to control the concubine.

Not everyone has the same means as Madam Gao, but even Madam Gao could not resist her husband’s favoritism towards her maidservant, who even gave birth to the Second Master Gao.

If it weren’t for the fact that General Gao valued his eldest son more, no matter how capable Old Lady Gao was, General Gao was the one who called the shots while he was alive.

It is said that General Gao doted on Master Gao’s biological mother very much. When he promoted Master Gao’s biological mother to be his concubine, he abolished her slave status. He did not want Master Gao’s biological mother to be a lowly concubine.

If Mr. Gao’s mother had lived two more years, Mrs. Gao might not have been virtuous enough to cultivate Mr. Gao. I don’t believe that Mrs. Gao would have been able to tolerate having two illegitimate sons at that time.

Even if the relationship between a couple is not good, if a woman gets pregnant less than a year after marriage, who would be willing to let her maidservant fight against her husband’s personal maid?

I’m afraid that Madam Gao had already seen that General Gao was unreliable and was completely disheartened. However, she couldn’t divorce him, so she simply maximized her son’s interests.

But my sister-in-law is not Madam Gao, right? My sister-in-law’s family background cannot be compared with Madam Gao, but her appearance still has an advantage. I don’t know why she is so nervous.

I am just worried that if my eldest brother meets a beautiful lady one day, my uncle and aunt will force him to divorce his wife, or will they let one of his concubines climb on top of his wife?”
