Back to the 70s: My Childhood Sweetheart Spoils Me Rotten-Chapter 75 - 74: What’s Wrong

Gong Tao saw his daughter coming back into the house, clean and plump like a big apple, and hurriedly wanted to pick Gong Ruini up.

"No." Gong Ruini showed that she has a temper too. Before, everyone was ignoring her, hmph, now they want to pay attention to her? Not a chance.

We are, after all, a very prideful person and cannot be called upon and dismissed at will.

"What’s wrong, Ni Zi?" Gong Tao found his daughter’s attitude quite strange.

"Dad didn’t help today." Gong Ruini wrinkled her little nose in displeasure.

"Didn’t help?" Couldn’t be. Gong Tao knew his daughter was upset today, but he hadn’t expected her to still be upset, which amused him quite a bit.

Look at that, he didn’t even think it was a big deal. Gong Ruini thought to herself, why is she just a child? Children have no rights!

Gong Ruini decided not to pay any attention to the old man and crawled past him to her own bed.

Talking to these annoying people is really too upsetting; it’s better to go to sleep early.

Seeing his daughter busy crawling, Gong Tao realized the little girl was angry, "Ni Zi, it’s not that Dad didn’t help today, but it’s because your Uncle Zhao has spoken."

"What do you think your dad should do?" Gong Tao couldn’t say it was because they were living in the Gong household, so he had to do as they say.

Gong Tao was actually considering taking some time to speak with the village about building a house if they stayed here longer.

Building a house nearby would work—closing their doors would make them a separate household, and they could take care of things.

Seeing Gong Tao’s dispirited appearance, what could Gong Ruini say? Yes, after all, they are living on Zhao Family’s turf,

though this house still belongs to the village’s assets, as long as Zhao Gang doesn’t leave, the village definitely won’t drive him away. You could say it’s Zhao Gang’s.

Gong Tao had some money saved up, they could eat well, so he was considering the house-building matter, "At least this could be considered our home."

"This is already our home." Gong Ruwen suddenly blurted out.

"I like it here; I don’t like the old house, where no one comes to snatch our food."

"No one will call my sister a loss-making goods." Gong Ruwen boldly expressed his dislike for their old home, "But Dad, building a house must cost a lot of money."

Building a house indeed costs money, especially if you want to construct a good one; it costs even more, but Gong Tao didn’t think this was money that shouldn’t be spent.

"By that time, I can also make a cellar." Gong Tao wanted to build a house according to the local setup, and if possible, have his wife bear two more children.

Build a house here? Gong Ruini immediately wanted to say no. Although this place is nice, it’s definitely not where they plan to stay long-term.

Neither Gong Tao nor Cai Meina, Gong Ruini knew, were willing to stay in the Northeast long-term. If they knew about the resumption of the college entrance examination, wouldn’t they participate?

Once they leave, Gong Ruini can foresee they won’t come back, and spending a large sum of money to build a house is just a waste.

Doing such a stupid thing cannot be done, "Dad, maybe we will go back one day."

Gong Ruini could only use the possibility of going back to persuade the old man not to build a house.

Before Gong Tao could react to Gong Ruini’s words, Gong Ruwen exploded like a pot and jumped out of the bed.

"I don’t want to go back. I want to stay here." This place is so good, with playmates, can go up the mountains, and most importantly, can eat till full, without anyone scolding him,

and even more so, no one would rush in to snatch away things from home.

"There are no bad people here, that’s right, no bad people." Although it’s improper to speak ill of the elders, in Gong Ruwen’s eyes, those so-called relatives were really too much.

"Dad, I like it here. We won’t go back."

"We won’t go back, okay?" Gong Ruwen kept repeating his request to Gong Tao, hoping to get his father’s agreement.

Going back, saying he doesn’t want to would be a lie, but how could they go back? Their household registration was already moved to the Northeast, the factory position was long gone, never mind the house, which was also taken back by the factory.

As for those so-called relatives, they probably weren’t welcome back either, "Okay, we won’t go back, this place is good."

What a useless teammate! Gong Ruini really wanted to slap her own brother unconscious, such a useless teammate. "Dad, actually, I also like it here. Don’t worry, I won’t clash with Zhao Guangran anymore."

After today, Gong Ruini was sure that Zhao Guangran would join forces with her.

In short, as long as Zhao Guangran doesn’t target her anymore but instead allies with her, then things won’t be such a mess.

What, his daughter actually thinks he’s building a house because of Zhao Guangran? Was he ignoring her earlier because of Zhao Guangran?

This matter must be clarified, or else his daughter would blame the Zhao Family, "Silly kid, how is this related to staying with the Zhao Family?"

"Do you think your Uncle Zhao is like that?" Gong Tao signaled to the side where Gong Ruwen was still making a fuss, unwilling to return.

Gong Ruini shook her head without thinking. If anyone had given her warmth, apart from the Dai Family, it was the Zhao Family.

Don’t look at how she always talks about how mischievous Zhao Guangran is; actually, Zhao Guangran was still quite caring to Gong Ruini.

"Punished today, have you not realized your mistake?" Gong Tao knew his little daughter was smart, but sometimes she was too clever for her own good.

Mistake? Wasn’t it because of a fight with Zhao Guangran? Gong Ruini looked at Gong Tao with a confused face.

Of course, she didn’t forget to glance at Gong Ruwen, hoping to get a hint.

Seeing his sister’s pleading eyes, Gong Ruwen’s mouth twitched as he was about to tell her a thing or two, "Do not tell her." Gong Tao stopped his son’s intent to leak the information.

Oh no, not getting any outside support, Gong Ruini could only think hard by herself, but she really thought it was because of the fight they had.

His daughter was really too naive, Gong Tao realized she couldn’t figure it out, "It’s not because of the fight."

Couldn’t be, it’s not because of the fight? Gong Ruini was furious. If that’s the case, why was the punishment so severe? Too much, it’s too much.

"What was the punishment after your fight?" Gong Tao saw his daughter jumping up, her little fists waving around.

"Building a snowman, huh?" Wait, no way, it’s just because they crushed the snowman they built earlier, and that’s why they got punished so severely?

Gong Ruini was dumbfounded, how could it be like this?

"This isn’t a small matter; you destroyed the results of someone else’s labor."

"Children fighting is normal, but you shouldn’t have destroyed the results of Zhao Xuran’s labor." As Gong Tao spoke, his tone grew heavier.

Looking at the suddenly serious Gong Tao, Gong Ruini really felt a bit unfamiliar, but what her father said wasn’t wrong. They did destroy Zhao Xuran’s work, and that’s unacceptable.

But why not tell them about this mistake earlier? They would admit it. Gong Ruini still felt a bit dissatisfied.

After all, today was truly exhausting, tired to the point where Gong Ruini was ready to strike or run away.

"You think just telling you would lift the punishment?" Gong Tao countered, how could they think of the punishment as something so insignificant?

"And you still have work to do tomorrow. If you don’t let it sink in, you’ll never remember." Gong Tao insisted it really wasn’t meant to scare her.

Really? Gong Ruini was dumbstruck. If only there was a time machine, allowing her to go back before the incident, no matter how mad she was, she wouldn’t resort to violence. Otherwise, the consequences weren’t something she could bear.
