Chapter 173 - 173 Playboy



Zhao Chuchu entered the Gan family’s residence without anyone knowing.

The study still had its lights on. Zhao Chuchu walked over and knocked on the door. “Grandpa Gan, it’s me.”

A short while later, the study door opened.

“Back so soon? Come in and have a seat,” Gan Maosheng quickly said as he allowed Zhao Chuchu back inside.

Zhao Chuchu handed Gan Maosheng the box she had in her arms. “I’m going to have to trouble you for the matters of the Jin family, Grandpa Gan.”

Gan Maosheng opened the box and saw what was inside. He was a little taken aback. “What’s this?”

“Evidence of the Jin family bullying the citizens and the losses of lives they caused. It’s not convenient for me to take action, so I’m going to have to ask you to do it, Grandpa Gan,” said Zhao Chuchu. She then told Gan Maosheng about her plan.

Gan Maosheng was absolutely shocked.

He had to admit that Zhao Chuchu was truly merciless.

If things went according to plan, the Jin family would not have any chances of survival.

“Chuchu, you went back just to get these? How did you know?”

“When I went to other towns to cure the plague, one of the victims handed it to me. He hoped that I could help him. I’ve been busy lately and had forgotten about this matter. If it weren’t for the fact that the Jin family was looking for trouble, I wouldn’t have remembered it.”

Zhao Chuchu made up a random excuse.

Gan Maosheng didn’t get any suspicions either.

After all, when Zhao Chuchu went to cure the plague back then, she visited many of the victims’ villages.

The saying, “What goes around comes around,” was perfect to be used on the Jin family. They committed too many sins and were now being punished for their actions.

“Don’t worry. I know what to do. It’s getting late. You’ve been running around all day. You must be tired. Get some rest first, and I’ll take care of the rest.”

“Okay, thank you, Grandpa Gan.”

“We’re family. You don’t need to be so polite. Go on now.”

“Okay, you get some rest as well, Grandpa Gan.”

Gan Maosheng waved his hand.

Zhao Chuchu then left the study and returned to the room that Madam Luo had prepared for her.

“Chuchu is a remarkable young woman.” Gan Maosheng sighed. “No matter what happens in the future, Yingzhi, don’t offend Xie Heng and his wife, got it?”

“Don’t worry, Dad. I won’t do such revengeful things,” replied Gan Yingzhi.

“It’s not that. It’s…” Gan Maosheng thought about it and rephrased what he was about to say. “Put it this way, both Xie Heng and Chuchu are not as simple as they look. They have a lot of potentials. If the Gan family can become friends with them, then it will be the Gan family’s luck.”

“Xie Heng has the potential to become a top scholar. He had been blind in the past, and people felt it was a pity. Now that he can see again, he definitely has a bright future ahead of him.”

“It’s good that you know this. Don’t be like the idiots from the Jin family. Look how they’ve ended up. I’m afraid no one will be able to help them now.”

Gan Yingzhi recalled what Zhao Chuchu had said, and now he knew why she said that.

“Never mind, you can leave as well.” Gan Maosheng waved his hand. He knew his son had a gentle character, and it was best for his son not to get himself involved in all of this.

Gan Yingzhi thought the same, so he left the study.

Madam Luo only found out the next day that Chuchu had returned in the middle of the night.

“Why didn’t you tell me you came back? I was fast asleep and didn’t know that you were back.” Madam Luo was telling Chuchu off. “You were traveling during the night. If you had told me, I would have gotten someone to prepare some bath water for you.”

“It was too late. I didn’t want to wake up, Auntie.”

“You don’t have to think that you’re bothering me.”

“It’s nothing important. Since you said we’re family, you don’t have to care so much about me.”

“You have a sweet mouth, young lady. Come, breakfast is ready. Come and have breakfast first.”

Madam Luo dragged Zhao Chuchu over to the dining table.

Gan Maosheng and the other guys had already finished breakfast. Gan Yingzhi would need to go teach at the school. His two grandsons would need to go to Thousand Battalion.

After Zhao Chuchu finished breakfast, she went to perform acupuncture for Old Mrs. Gan.

Old Mrs. Gan’s health was getting better day by day.

“Chuchu, I am so lucky to have bumped into you. Otherwise, I can’t imagine what I could do when I turn into a useless person,” said Old Mrs. Gan as Zhao Chuchu finished the acupuncture. “Da Lang of the Xie family is fortunate to marry a good wife like you.”

“You’re making fun of me again, Grandma Gan.” Zhao Chuchu pretended to blush.

“How’s this making fun of you? Why are you still so shy after getting married, young lady?”

“Grandma Gan!”

“Alright, alright, I’ll stop.” Old Mrs. Gan smiled. She then lowered her voice and said to Zhao Chuchu, “Chuchu, I’ve heard that Heng’s eyes have been cured. You need to put some effort in as well. You’ve been married for over a year. How come you’re still not pregnant yet?”

Zhao Chuchu had never expected someone to rush her into having a baby.

It seemed that the elders still cared for many babies no matter what era it was.

“Chuchu, I’ve been your age. I’m telling you, no matter how well men treat you, they will always have other thoughts in their minds. You have to learn to get him to obey you. Don’t let him get the better of you. Then he might end up having mistresses, which will be very disgusting for you.”

“Da Lang is not that kind of a person,” Zhao Chuchu said in a weak voice.

Even if Xie Heng had concubines, she was in no position to say anything.

After all, the person who married Xie Heng was “Zhao Chuchu,” not her.

“You’re getting along right now. It doesn’t mean you will still get along in the future. Plus the fact that Heng is a very talented man. Even if he doesn’t have other thoughts, that doesn’t mean others won’t either,” said Old Mrs. Gan. “If Xie Heng became the top scholar one day, there would be a lot of temptations around him. People still have ideas about your Grandpa Gan, not to mention Heng. You must treasure the present and quickly have a child. In the future, the child is enough to cause him not to put you in a tight spot.”

Zhao Chuchu didn’t really agree with this point of view.

...

If a man wanted to be a playboy, he wouldn’t really care how many children you gave birth to.

Hating the old and liking the new was nature. If a man really had changed his mind, he wouldn’t be trapped by children.

Of course, Zhao Chcuhu wasn’t going to say that to Old Mrs. Gan. After all, they grew under different cultural backgrounds and opinions.

They were born in different times. She couldn’t really expect Old Mrs. Gan to think the way people her time did.

“A lot of men sill abandoned their wives and children. Children won’t be the key, but Grandma Gan, I actually think if a woman is very capable and independent, then men wouldn’t dare look down on us.”

“What else can women do expect to be a good housewife? Chuchu, I know what you mean, but the world is harsher on women. It would be more difficult for women to go down any path. But speaking of which, it’s not impossible for you, Chuchu.”

Old Mrs. Gan looked at Zhao Chuchu dotingly.

“You have brilliant medical skills. In the whole of the Wei Dynasty, I don’t think anyone can be as good as you. Chuchu, you have to make the most use of your advantage. I hope that you can be successful in the future and be happy forever.”

“Grandma Gan, you’re overrating me. I just got lucky…”

“That’s not luck. Everyone saw what you’ve done. Chuchu, you have to have confidence in yourself.”

Old Mrs. Gan rubbed Zhao Chuchu’s head.

...

She wished that she had such a well-behaved and capable granddaughter.

It was a pity that their dumb grandson missed this chance. She blamed it on the luck that their ancestral grave brought them.
