Chapter 160
In Hu Linbi's eyes, Gu Xi was born in an ordinary way, and her parents are not people with any background, so naturally she doesn't need too much courtesy.

In addition, she couldn't get used to Gu Xi, and she didn't even like Sun Qiuqiu anymore.

She glanced at the clothes on her body, and there was a touch of contempt in her eyes. She really had never seen the world, and she even wore this kind of shit to meet people.

Of course she didn't think it was genuine. The dress Sun Qiuqiu was wearing was a new model from a big brand, and the price was not low, so poor people like her couldn't afford it.

At most, she thinks that the quality of this A product is not bad.

Thinking so in her heart, she still enthusiastically welcomed the husband and wife to sit on the leather sofa next to her, "Why did the in-laws come here so early? Have you had breakfast? It just so happened that the nanny brought some porridge over. If you don't mind it, eat something first, and we'll find a restaurant at noon to have a good chat."

Although Hu Linbi's tone was very enthusiastic, anyone with a discerning eye could see her contempt for Gu Bo and his wife.

He was clearly worried that he didn't have breakfast when he came over so early, but he was actually mocking his lack of manners, he didn't even eat breakfast, and even ate the breakfast delivered by their nanny.

Moreover, he insinuated that he came over in such a hurry, that he was trying to curry favor with others.

Gu Bo is an honest person, he almost couldn't lift his head because of her open and indirect sarcasm.

But Sun Qiuqiu really couldn't bear the look in your low-class eyes when she looked at her, she shook the mink fur coat on her body, sat on the sofa, "We have already eaten, you should keep these porridge for yourself Eat it, I can't eat clear soup with little water."

Tsk, this is a beggar.

If it wasn't for looking at Gu Bo, she wouldn't have come to suffer this anger today!

She glared at Gu Xi angrily, and looked at the old man on the bed not to be outdone, "You are Mu Jingchen's father, right? It's been a while since Gu Xi married into your family, and it's really good enough that I just thought of having a make-up wedding at this time." Yes. Shouldn’t it be time to give us the bride price that should be given to our family?”

Sun Qiuqiu said it was a bride price, anyway, she didn't expect Gu Xi to provide her with old age, so she naturally did what she said and did according to her temperament.Besides, she didn't receive a penny of the bride price that their family promised at the beginning!
Sun Qiuqiu has been brooding over this matter, if it wasn't for this damn girl who insisted on marrying Mu Jingchen, how could she still not receive the money until now.

Although she doesn't care too much about the little money now, she doesn't mind saying a few words if it makes Gu Xi more troublesome.

Sure enough, as soon as she said this, Gu Xi's face became ugly. Sun Qiuqiu was about to be happy when someone around her grabbed her hand.

Gu Bo whispered in her ear: "You either leave me today, or shut up! Otherwise, be careful and I'll regret telling you about that!"

He stared at Sun Qiuqiu with obvious threats in his eyes.

Sun Qiuqiu was startled, and was about to refute, but Gu Bo's eyes became more serious, "If you don't believe me, just try it!"

Sun Qiuqiu didn't dare to gamble, she knew that people couldn't be rushed.

Don't look at Gu Bo who is usually easy to handle, but once he pushes people into a hurry, he can do anything.

For her daughter, she can bear anything.

Gritting his teeth to hold back what he wanted to argue, Sun Qiuqiu swallowed the words with great reluctance.

"bride price?"

Mu Cheng looked at the two in-laws suspiciously, as if he didn't notice the undercurrent between the two of them, and turned his eyes to his son, "Did you not give the bride price that should be given to the in-laws?"

"My relatives, don't get me wrong, we didn't come here today to ask for a betrothal gift. Unfortunately, it's my daughter, as long as she lives well, we don't need any betrothal gifts." Gu Bo said before anyone else could speak.

He glanced at Gu Xi and continued, "Although Xi Xi is not my biological daughter, her mother is my friend. Helping friends take care of their children is a matter of course. I never thought of anything in return, but Xi Xi , she has suffered in our house all these years.”

"dad……"

"Let me finish." Gu Bo waved her to stop talking, and looked deeply at his adopted daughter, "Unfortunately, I haven't fulfilled my father's responsibilities for so many years, I'm already very happy that you didn't blame me .”

"Dad, don't say that..." He actually did a good job, it was he who gave her fatherly love, and he was the one who always supported her.

Gu Xi couldn't help but her eyes were red. Although my father was not bold enough sometimes, once it was about her, he would definitely stick to it.

If it wasn't for his support, she wouldn't even be able to go to college, and Gu Xi has always been very grateful to him.

"I'm sorry for you, Xixi, I'm really sorry for you." Gu Bo's eyes were red, he looked at Gu Xi with such guilt, "Forgive me, Xixi, I, I'm sorry for you..."

Gu Bo burst into tears as he spoke, making everyone in the room unhappy, and Sun Qiuqiu stared at him closely, worrying that he would slip up when he got agitated.

"Okay, don't cry, it's not like you won't see each other in the future, really, hurry up, it's not good to cry like this in front of your in-laws!"

Sun Qiuqiu stuffed him with a piece of paper, and Gu Bo finally came to his senses, realizing that he was too out of control just now.Embarrassed, she wiped her tears, "Sorry, I just wanted to say, I'm very happy to see Jingchen taking care of Xixi now."

"Jingchen, didn't you give the bride price you promised? This is not what our Mu family should do." Hu Linbi suddenly spoke, and said excitedly: "In-laws, how much did Jingchen promise to give you? "

She was asking Sun Qiuqiu, and she could tell that Gu Xi, the adoptive mother, didn't like Gu Xi very much, but this was just what she wanted.

"50..." Gu Bo stared at him, and Sun Qiuqiu closed his mouth.

"50?" Hu Linbi looked at Sun Qiuqiu with disdain, and turned to Mu Cheng with a light smile: "Master, it's only 50, and we don't want to give it to you. If it gets out, it will be our Mu family who will lose it." Your face, how does this make other people think of our Mu family."

She said it for the sake of the Mu family's face, but she glanced at Mu Jingchen with obvious schadenfreude, tsk tsk, 50 is not worth it, and it is something that cannot be put on the table.

Mu Cheng glanced at his son and said nothing. He believed that his son was not reluctant to part with the 50 people, and there must be something he didn't know about it.

Hu Linbi saw that he didn't speak, a trace of hatred flashed in his eyes, and he promised Sun Qiuqiu: "Mother-in-law, don't worry, our Mu family will not miss your betrothal gift, Jingchen, don't you think so?"

She changed the topic to Mu Jingchen, and Sun Qiuqiu also looked at him. At first he refused to give it, but now his mother said he would give it. She wants to see who the Mu family is in charge of.

No one thinks too much money. If someone is willing to give it, she certainly won't refuse it.

"50 is not much, but I only give it to those who should receive it." Mu Jingchen said calmly.

"Oh? Then you don't think your mother-in-law should be the one to collect the money?" Hu Linbi covered her mouth and snickered. Seeing Sun Qiuqiu's face suddenly sinking, a trace of disdain flashed in her eyes, "Then who do you think it should be for?"

"Okay, can you stop talking!" Mu Cheng frowned, looking at Hu Linbi impatiently, "If you want to stay, just keep talking and listen quietly!"

Today is the official meeting of the two families. They are married, not enemies.She was just afraid that the sky would not be chaotic, so she insisted on talking so much!

If I had known earlier, I should have driven the person away just now, so as not to be disturbed by her now.

"I didn't say anything. It's not that the mother-in-law is dissatisfied. Of course our Mu family can't take advantage of others, right?" Hu Linbi pouted, this old man knew to favor his son!

"That's not your turn to talk! Go sit down and listen!"

When Mu Cheng yelled at her, but still in front of outsiders, Hu Linbi couldn't hold back anymore, and wanted to say a few more words, but Mu Lin hurriedly stopped her, "Okay, mom, sit down quickly, it's rare for a family to meet, don't talk about other things gone."

After all, Mu Lin was sensible, Mu Cheng gave him a look and asked him to look at her.

Hu Linbi still listened to his son. Although he was very upset, he was pulled to sit down by him.

"Dear family, as I said just now, we don't need any betrothal gifts, and we don't need so many years. We are marrying our daughters, not selling them." Gu Bo said in silence, he shook off Sun Qiuqiu's hand secretly, and insisted.

"We'll talk about this in the future. Don't worry, we will never treat you badly."

As long as it is something that can be solved with money, Mu Cheng has not put such a small amount of money in his eyes, waved his hand, and said: "These young people just like to follow the trend and don't like to do those troublesome things, but since the two of them To be together, of course we have to hold a wedding, don't you think?"

"Yes." Gu Bo thought so too.

If it wasn't for the special circumstances before, he wouldn't have allowed the two of them to get their certificates secretly.

Mu Cheng smiled more sincerely, "So for this meeting, firstly, we are in-laws after all, and it's not a big deal if we don't see each other. Second, I want to ask my in-laws, what do you think about the wedding? After all, it is The children of our own family must satisfy both parties, don’t you think so?”

Gu Bo looked at his father-in-law, who looked haggard but still in good spirits, and could see that he was very satisfied with Xi Xi, otherwise he wouldn't be so concerned about these things.

Feeling slightly relieved, he nodded and said, "My father-in-law is right, and we don't have any requirements, as long as the children like it."

After he made that choice back then, he was ashamed to regard himself as Gu Xi's father anymore. Now that she can still recognize him, he is already very happy.

As for other things, as long as the husband and wife are happy, as long as Gu Xi likes her, he will support her.

"Haha, it seems that the father-in-law is also a caring child. Well, let us handle it all. Don't worry, we will definitely make the wedding beautiful." Mu Cheng laughed out loud with satisfaction.
