Chapter 532: 532 Chapter 532: 532 During the day, Wan Ruyan made Gu Changshun lose face completely, and at night, a thoroughly inebriated Gu Changshun returned home, daring to let him, Gu Changshun, be without face.
Soon he would teach Wan Ruyan, that damned woman, a good lesson, making sure she wouldn’t be able to leave the bed tomorrow. Gu Changshun had set his mind on teaching Wan Ruyan a lesson, but when he got to the door, he found that Wan Ruyan had actually locked it from the inside– he couldn’t enter at all.
Already furious in his heart, finding that Wan Ruyan had locked the door made Gu Changshun even angrier, “Open the door, Wan Ruyan you little wretch, open the door for your father.”
Gu Changshun kicked the door, making it rattle loudly.
Mrs. Zhang came over and quickly asked, “Son, what’s the matter? What happened again?”
“Mother, that wench with the surname Wan actually locked the door on your son.” Still fuming, Gu Changshun kicked the door of the house again.
Inside the house, Wan Ruyan was enjoying her food and drink, completely ignoring Gu Changshun’s shouting outside. She had not only locked the door but also blocked it with stuff.
If Gu Changshun wanted to come in, he’d have to break the door down.
Mrs. Zhang was also frustrated because of what happened during the day, and now Wan Ruyan had locked the door on her son.
Mrs. Zhang was even more infuriated.
“You with the surname Wan, open the door. Quickly unlock it for my son. Do you even know what the duty of a wife is? On the wedding night, when does a wife not let her own husband into the room? You’ve got some nerve.”
Lifting her foot, Mrs. Zhang also kicked the door of the bridal chamber forcefully. Wan Ruyan tossed away the jujube in her hand, and also lost her temper, “Mrs. Zhang, are you ever going to give it a rest? You promised twenty taels of silver as a bride price to our Wan Family, and now you haven’t given a single copper. Having Wan Ruyan marry your son Gu Changshun is already like your Gu Family had ancestral fortunes burning for eight lifetimes! With no money given, you still want to enter my room? Dream on!”
Wan Ruyan’s words turned Mrs. Zhang red and white by turns, her face a kaleidoscope of anger. She nearly choked on her own rage, spitting out blood.
“You–?” Shaking with anger, Mrs. Zhang couldn’t utter another word after struggling for a long time.
Wan Ruyan remained indifferent, “What about me? Don’t forget, the state I’m in now is all because of your son’s doing. He ruined me and now, even after getting married, you’re not giving the bride price. You really think I, Wan Ruyan, am worthless, don’t you?”
Mrs. Zhang felt like she was going mad, and without thinking, she hurled insults, “Pah, Wan Ruyan, you’re nothing but a worn-out shoe; do you think you’re worth anything? My son Gu Changshun agreeing to have you, that’s your family’s ancestral fortunes burning for eight lifetimes!”
Gu Changshun didn’t believe he wouldn’t be able to deal with Wan Ruyan that night. She wouldn’t open the door? Then he’ll just kick it down.
Seeing Gu Changshun kicking the door ferociously from outside, Wan Ruyan was not afraid. With a pair of red candles burning inside, she took one and approached the door, threatening calmly, “Gu Changshun, you listen well. If you and your mother dare to kick the door again, believe it or not, I will burn your Gu Family’s kennel down this instant?”
As soon as Wan Ruyan finished speaking, the two outside suddenly went quiet.
Mrs. Zhang and Gu Changshun both knew Wan Ruyan meant what she said and could actually do it. Fearing that Wan Ruyan would indeed burn down the house, they no longer dared to kick the door. Gu Changshun, who had been dreaming of a beautiful wife to hold, was not only utterly humiliated on his wedding day but also didn’t get to touch a single finger of Wan Ruyan at night.
Talk about frustration.
Mrs. Zhang and Gu Changshun were outranked. They could never have dreamed that the Wan Ruyan they had married into the family could outdo them. And with Wan Ruyan’s arrival in the Gu Family, that was only the beginning. Later on, she caused even more chaos, turning the Zhang family’s life upside down.
Originally, Su Yunjin and her husband Gu Ya thought that the rumors were spread by Mrs. Han. Unexpectedly, the Magistrate came to tell them that the rumors were not spread by Mrs. Zhang.
