Mr. Gu slightly opened his mouth, facing his son-in-law's words, he actually couldn't respond.
He always felt that his son-in-law's words weren't quite right, but he didn't know what the matter was, and he couldn't get a clear grasp on it.
"Ahem." Mr. Gu coughed twice and said to Yebai, "You don't have to give too huge a red packet to the two elders. I heard that your family is currently not doing well financially."
Mr. Gu got this information from asking Gu Erbo later. Gu Erbo very affirmatively told Mr. Gu, saying it was very definite news, that a family named Xiao was facing the risk of being acquired.
The son-in-law's surname was Xiao.
Mr. Gu didn't believe that his younger brother's family would lie about this matter, so he had kept the words in his mouth for a long time. But ultimately, he had to discuss it with his son-in-law, because his daughter had married this man, and they needed to live their daily lives, requiring the essentials like firewood, rice, oil, and salt.
