Upon hearing this, Gong Mo asked Mama Gong suspiciously, “Can you bear doing that?”

“Why can’t I bear it?” said Mama Gong. “My surname isn’t Gong anyway! I’d be more afraid that you wouldn’t be able to bear it!”

Gong Mo shook her head immediately. If not for the fact that those people were of the Gong Family, she wouldn’t want to ever interact with them!”

When she was little, she had wished more than once that Mama Gong would sever ties with them. Now that she was older, she felt like they would never be rid of them even if they died. Was it simply because she carried the Gong name?

Mama Gong said, “If your dead Dad knew how they treat his widow and child, he’d probably rise up from his grave! So if they’re going to continue acting outrageously, we don’t have to be polite to them anymore!”

“Actually, I think we shouldn’t do that.” Gong Mo then vented, “There’s no way to talk sense into them since we’re a family to the outside world. What will you do if I leave and they come looking for you?”

“Ma can come with us,” said Sheng Nanxuan.

Gong Mo whipped her head around and stared at him. Was he willing to do that? Having one more person would increase their cost of living drastically. Not only were things more expensive, property prices were even more exorbitant. Bringing on one more person would mean renting another room, which meant that they would need to spend more money per month.

Mama Gong said, “Stop. You’re newlyweds and I don’t want to disturb you. I can go and see the child after Momo gives birth though, but I wouldn’t like to go now. I won’t be able to bear leaving my store and staying here means that I can still earn money! Or are you willing to rent a store for me in the capital?”

“Sure!” Sheng Nanxuan said, smiling.

Mama Gong smiled. “Stop joking! The property prices there are so steep that we won’t be able to rent anything even if we sell ourselves!”

At night, before bed, Mama Gong said to Gong Mo, “I’ll get Little Min to watch the store tomorrow while we go to the mall. We’re getting you clothes.”

“Why are you getting clothes for me?” a puzzled Gong Mo asked.

“You have to have new clothes because you’re getting married! How can a bride wear old clothes?” Mama Gong smiled as she said, “Feifei keeps showing off her Chanel and LV goods. I’ll get you a couple of pieces too!”

“Don’t!” cried Gong Mo. “Do you know how expensive those are? Their cheapest pieces still cost tens of thousands at the very least! It’ll be better if you just give me the money to spend on clothes for your grandchild.”

“We still have to buy something nice!” Mama Gong said unquestioningly, “You have to wear something nice on the day you register your marriage!”

“…” Gong Mo pursed her lips together and did not rebut. She did want to make her wedding memorable after all, for it was indeed a big event.

“Alright, go to sleep!” said Mama Gong. “We’ll go get the things ourselves. Make up an excuse for Nanxuan so that he won’t come tomorrow or it’ll look like we wanted him only to pay for our purchases! Treat this as my dowry for you. He doesn’t have to worry about this. I’m guessing he lacks money too. Wealthy people can be so cruel. I’ve seen such situations on television dramas, too. In one drama…”

“Alright, I got it!” said Gong Mo. “Hurry up and go to sleep or you’ll get wrinkles!”

“Aiyah, you bear of a child!” Mama Gong touched a hand to her brow, afraid that she would really grow more wrinkles. “I’ll remind you now: he’s in dire financial straits now so just endure it for a while more. We’ll see when things get better.”

“See what?” laughed Gong Mo.

“We’ll see if he’s a nice person who cares for you. We’ll ignore him if he fools around once he becomes rich and doesn’t spend his money on you! Divorce him and bring your child back here. Mama will take care of you!”
