Chapter 3 Is It Him?
Gu Xiaodi didn't drive home directly, but went to a bank first, and remitted 30,000 yuan to the card number that was like a stream.
Subsequently, she flipped through the address book on her mobile phone, and when she found that the contact was the word "stepmother", she dialed it again.
As soon as the phone on the other end was connected, Gu Xiaodi said coldly on the other end of the phone: "The money has been transferred to you, please don't ask me for money again in the next year, I have neither a job nor money now." ”
Gu Xiaodi hung up the phone without waiting for any response from the person on the other end of the phone, but her face was not good-looking.
"Is it really as Feng Yaya said, my mother and my brother are like wolves, they will never be fed?"
Gu Xiaodi thought compassionately in her heart while driving the car.
She didn't want to be so blindly indulgent and blindly accommodate them, she decided to learn to resist from now on, and from now on she would cut off their "rations".
She secretly swore to herself in her heart that she must be ruthless this time and never tolerate it again.
Gu Xiaodi's younger brother is eight years younger than Gu Xiaodi, and he stopped studying before graduating from high school. In addition to playing games at home every day, it is basically a giant baby who opens his mouth and clothes to stretch his hands, and now he is in his twenties, and he still has no serious job.
Her mother was a housewife with an extremely patriarchal mentality, and her personality was very strong and self-contained.
Her mother's words were like a holy decree since she was a child, and no one dared to resist, otherwise she would be greeted with a slashing insult.
Gu Xiaodi's father is a very unassertive real man with a strict wife, and he has no family status at all.
Maybe it is because of the long-term pressure of this environment, Gu Xiaodi has been particularly strong and competitive since she was a child, she has only had one thought since she was a child, "You must rely on your own efforts to escape from that home, the place that suffocates her, and the place that brings her nightmares." ”
Gu Xiaodi was fortunate that her heart was strong enough, and she didn't inherit the slightest shortcoming from her mother.
She has a cheerful and lively personality, is good at conversation, and always believes that the luck of a girl who loves to laugh is certainly not too bad, so she has always been smiling, and her first impression is that particularly sweet and gentle image.
However, in fact, she is also such a sweet and gentle person in her bones.
Sometimes, she felt that she was a combination of contradictions, and in the silence of the night when no one was around, she would occasionally cry inexplicably.
She thought that she had a tragic life experience, except for Hao Yiyi and Feng Yaya, she never told anyone else.
Besides, it's not a drama to be sympathized with, and there's no need for her to make it known to everyone.
Since Hao Yiyi met her and married her all these years, Gu Xiaodi thinks that Hao Yiyi is not bad to her.
However, in the eyes of another person, Feng Yaya, Gu Xiaodi's nominal husband didn't love her so much, and even Feng Yaya felt that that person was not worthy of Gu Xiaodi at all.
However, in Gu Xiaodi's heart, he not only loves Hao Yiyi very much, but also has an inexplicable dependence on Hao Yiyi.
This dependence is attached to her spiritual sustenance, nothing else.
Especially when Hao Yiyi treated her to send money to her family, in Gu Xiaodi's senses, Hao Yiyi would never take the initiative to ask, at this point, Gu Xiaodi sincerely felt that Hao Yiyi was a gentleman.
Where would she know, in fact, Hao Yiyi had already had a grudge against this matter.
However, for the sake of Gu Quanhao's feelings, Gu Xiaodi will also give her in-laws a big red envelope during the New Year's holidays. However, all this is taken for granted in Hao Yiyi's eyes, and it is what Gu Xiaodi should do as the daughter-in-law of their Hao family.

"Hey, honey, are you really going to leave the workplace completely and become your housewife?"
Gu Xiaodi was cooking soup in the kitchen and talking on the phone at the same time.
"yes, what else could I do? I don't have as good a life as you, I love your mother so much, my mother-in-law who loves you so much, and my husband who loves you so much. Gu Xiaodi said sourly to the person on the other end of the phone.
"Hey, do you envy me? Then take Hao Yi off and I'll reintroduce you to a high-quality man. The person on the other end of the line said in a teasing tone.
"you, after so many years, I still haven't been serious." Gu Xiaodi smiled and said coquettishly to the person on the other end of the phone.
"After so many years, I still don't look down on your family, which shows how bad your vision is? Alas, I don't know what kind of shit luck he Hao Yi has got, why were you so good taken down by him? There was a hint of disgust in the tone of the person on the other end of the phone.
"Hey, I said how did Hao Yiyi offend you back then? Why don't you look at him like that? Gu Xiaodi smiled and asked the person on the other end of the phone.
"He didn't offend me, but from the first time I saw him, I saw that he was not pleasing to the eye, and I felt that he was the eldest son you fed." The person on the other end of the phone said again.
When Gu Xiaodi heard this, she was stunned for a moment, with an intriguing expression on her face, and then she immediately changed the topic and said, "Something to do with me?" ”
"Oh, I almost forgot about business. Ask you, if you resign like this, won't the eldest son of your family have no complaints and displeasure? The person on the other end of the line asked again seriously.
"How so?" Gu Xiaodi asked rhetorically on the other end of the phone, with a hint of displeasure in her tone.
"Really? As for his kind of person who can't endure hardship at all, this is too different from his style, right? The person on the other end of the line confirmed in disbelief.
"Not really." Gu Xiaodi accentuated the tone of the answer on the other end of the phone.
After hearing her affirmative answer, the person on the other end of the phone breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's good if you don't have it." ”
"There's nothing else, I'm hanging." Gu Xiaodi now just wants to end this topic as soon as possible.
"Hey, wait, honey, there's one more thing I want you to help me with." The person on the other end of the phone suddenly said with a playful smile.
"Me? Help? Gu Xiaodi asked into the phone.
"Well, we're going to have a PA at home this weekend
ty, come over and busy me, anyway, you have nothing to do at home, and by the way, bring Tong Tong too, our family Han Duoduo misses him very much. The person on the other end of the line said again.
"What Pa
ty? Gu Xiaodi asked inexplicably.
"My husband's thirty-third birthday Pa
ty。 The man on the other end of the line replied.
"Han Shengwen's birthday? Why do you pay more attention to the sense of ritual when you get older? If you don't say it earlier, I don't have any gifts. ”
"Just come over and help me, there are too many people to come to the house as guests, and I can't handle it alone."
"Oh, who's going to go?" Gu Xiaodi asked instinctively again.
"It's just my husband, their partner in their early education training institution, and some teachers under him."
"Okay, I'll contribute two bottles of good red wine, and I'll be there sooner." Gu Xiaodi replied with a smile on the other end of the phone.
"People can come, and the wine will be forgotten." The person on the other end of the phone added with a smile.
"Got it." Gu Xiaodi hung up the phone after saying with a smile.

Feng Yaya is Gu Xiaodi's sister in the same dormitory for four years in college, and a native of H City.
After graduating from college at that time, the reason why Gu Xiaodi stayed in H City for development was also influenced by Feng Yaya, the relationship between the two of them was quite good, not sisters are better than sisters.
It's just that what Gu Xiaodi didn't expect was that many years later, she would be able to gain a foothold in H City and have a small home of her own.
After graduating, Feng Yaya relied on her family's relationship to enter a private company and became a cashier, and her life was much easier and happier than Gu Xiaodi's.
According to Feng Yaya's words, she went to work purely to pass the time, and a month's salary was not enough for her cosmetics money.
Feng Yaya's family is the "rich generation" who was dismantled, and she is the "rich second generation".
Her in-laws' family is also a petty bourgeois family. Her mother-in-law is a well-known director of the reproductive department of a municipal tertiary hospital, and her father-in-law is the principal of a respected middle school.
Perhaps her husband Han Shengwen has been influenced by her father-in-law since he was a child, and he has an indissoluble love for the profession of teacher.
After graduating from Han Shengwen Normal University, he went to school for a few years, but with the development of the times, parents in the 21st century paid more and more attention to the education of their children, and Han Shengwen found a business opportunity.
The year before last, after Han Shengwen decisively left the school, he and his high school classmates opened an English early education institution in a well-known commercial center, mainly for dolls from 2 to 6 years old.
Gu Xiaodi heard Feng Yaya say that since the opening, the business has been quite hot, and the supply is simply in short supply. Han Shengwen's early education classes are getting bigger and bigger, and the classes are also opening more and more.
Gu Xiaodi couldn't help but sigh after hearing this, "Now parents are really fighting for their children, and everything is starting from the doll." ”
Looking at the school district housing every year, I can see that it goes up but not down, but it is still hard to find a ticket.
Born as a post-80s generation, not only under the pressure of the mortgage and all the economy, but also against all the mental pressure to rush forward, rush, rush.
Sometimes, Gu Xiaodi really feels that as a post-80s generation, it is really bitter!
It's bitter indeed!
The pressure at work, the pressure in life, is no more suffocating than mental depression.

Early on the weekend, Hao Yiyi went to the company to work overtime after breakfast at home.
Gu Xiaodi simply cleaned up the house a little, and drove Hao Tong to Feng Yaya's house, which was located in the "rich area", which covered the attached kindergarten, attached primary school, and attached middle school, and the housing price had risen to 60,000 square meters.
The house where Feng Yaya lives now was purchased by the Han family as a wedding house for them when she and Han Shengwen got married.
Five years ago, their house prices there were only more than 10,000 square meters, and now they have risen to 60,000 yuan.
Downstairs at Feng Yaya's house, Gu Xiaodi parked the car and carried a gift box containing two bottles of red wine in one hand, and led Hao Tong to Feng Yaya's house on the first floor of Unit 2 with the other hand.
The floor of the community where Feng Yaya's house is located is not high, but a small western-style building with a four-storey villa structure design with one ladder and two households.
On the first floor where Feng Yaya is located, there is an additional courtyard, which is extremely well designed. There is a separate swimming pool, as well as an open terrace for guests to relax or open a pa
Dining area.
"Knock Knock"
This is a three-shot knocking action that Gu Xiaodi must do every time she comes to Feng Yaya's house.
After a while, I saw a lady who was about 1.7 meters tall with Gu Xiaodi opening the door, the lady was delicate, slender, and wore a high ponytail, and she still had a small dimple on the right side of her face when she laughed.
"Here we are, dear." The person who opened the door showed a mouthful of white beautiful teeth and shouted at Gu Xiaodi in surprise, and at the same time gave Gu Xiaodi a big warm hug.
The sound is crisp and extraordinarily bright, which makes people listen to it very comfortably.
"Take the wine, beauty." Gu Xiaodi said and handed the gift box in his hand to the lady.
I saw that when the lady took the red high-end red wine gift box in Gu Xiaodi's hand, her eyebrows subconsciously wrinkled slightly, she looked at the red wine gift box and pouted at Gu Xiaodi: "Look, it's broken again, isn't it?" It's said that it's good for people to come, what kind of wine do you bring? ”
"Who made you my best friend? I know that you love this, how can I bear to be empty-handed? Gu Xiaodi looked at the lady and quipped.
"Go, hate." The lady then grinned and said to Gu Xiaodijiao again.
"Where's Doer?" Gu Xiaodi stood at the door and looked into the room.
"Come in, please come in, Duoduo, Tong Tong and your Aunt Gu are here." The lady looked at Gu Xiaodi and Hao Tong and made a gesture of invitation with a smile, and shouted in the direction of the house.
Following the prestige, I saw a girl who looked three years younger than Hao Tong, with big eyes, and a few pigtails wearing a pink autumn dress, and ran towards them happily.
"Brother Hao Tong, I miss you so much, why did you come to see Duoduo?" When the little girl saw Hao Tong, she smiled happily and said to Hao Tong in a milky voice.
"My brother is going to school, so I can only take advantage of the weekend to visit you." Hao Tong looked at the girl like a big brother and finished speaking, then walked to the girl's side and naturally took her little hand.
"Brother Hao Tong, I left you a lot of chocolates and a lot of new toys, let's go to Duoduo's children's paradise together, right?" As she spoke, the girl took Hao Tong's hand and walked towards a children's toy room inside.
Gu Xiaodi looked at the two little figures, and couldn't help pouting sourly: "Your family has always only had my child in his eyes, and he ignores me every time."
"Haha, are you still jealous? Are you jealous? Am I the one who should be jealous? This little baby is clamoring to go to your house to live with Hao Tong every day, I see that my daughter has not yet grown up, and her heart has already flown to your Hao Tong. The lady patted Gu Xiaodi on the shoulder as she spoke.
"That relationship is good, in the future, our Hao Tong's dowry will be saved, and I will give it directly to you as a son-in-law." Gu Xiaodi joked with a smile again.
"Okay, don't regret what you say, anyway, my sister has a house."
"Tut-tut, Feng Yaya, your tone, your demeanor is almost like a rent collector." Gu Xiaodi joked with a smile again.
"Really? Do you need your sister to take care of you? In the next second, I saw that the lady's eyes were full of teasing, and she hugged Gu Xiaodi.
"Feng Erya, are you here again? How can a thirty-year-old person still be exactly the same as when he was in college? Gu Xiaodi subconsciously avoided the lady's embrace, and couldn't help but call her milk name and ran to the courtyard with a smile.
--
They were busy in the kitchen, and bursts of laughter filled every corner of the kitchen. The oil pot was not willing to be lonely, and it made a seductive sound.
Almost two hours later, Gu Xiaodi looked at the stove in the kitchen with satisfaction, full of tempting delicacies from her hands, and couldn't help but say to Feng Yaya: "Rent collector, I want to be paid, and I want to apply for reimbursement for today's fuel expenses." ”
"Poof", Feng Yaya was amused by Gu Xiaodi in the next second.
At this moment, the doorbell of Feng Yaya's house rang again.
Feng Yaya looked at the watch on her wrist and said with a smile to Gu Xiaodi, "It is estimated that they are here." ”
After she finished speaking, she left Gu Xiaodi with a meaningful smile and ran to open the door.
Gu Xiaodi also immediately unbuttoned the apron around his waist and ran towards the living room.
When Gu Xiaodi just moved into the living room, Han Shengwen came over with more than a dozen people.
They politely called out to Feng Yaya.
"Hi, Mr. Han."
Gu Xiaodi looked at a man with a flat head and black-framed eyes, a height of one meter seven or eight, and a polite appearance.
This person is Feng Yaya's husband, Han Shengwen.
"Yo, Xiaodi is here? It's great, it looks like we're all blessed today. ”
Han Shengwen looked at Gu Xiaodi and said excitedly, completely ignoring the subtle changes on Feng Yaya's face.
Gu Xiaodi glanced at Feng Yaya, smiled at Han Shengwen awkwardly, and didn't speak again.
Feng Yaya instinctively tugged Han Shengwen's arm and motioned him with her eyes not to talk nonsense.
"Your wife can't cook, do you want everyone to know about it? Do you still want to lose face? ”
Han Shengwen immediately smiled apologetically at Feng Yaya in understanding, and sat straight on the sofa in the living room.
"Then you're welcome, just make this your home." Feng Yaya said as she politely greeted the guests.
Until the end, when a handsome and tall figure appeared in front of Gu Xiaodi without warning, she opened her mouth in surprise and was stunned, "Is it him?" The hit-and-run that day? ”
