Bai Suihe really didn't know why Gu Antong was so stubborn.
Right now, she only wanted to lay low and stay as far away from this walking disaster as possible. "Don't forget, we are two separate families now. At best, we can only be considered distant relatives. How could there be any justification for an outsider to take charge of your family's household?"
"I can have Grandfather add your names back into the genealogy book," Gu Antong said urgently. "Are you really willing to be a mere village woman in this rural place?
"This area is desolate and fraught with dangers. I've heard there are wild beasts in the mountains; it's not safe at all."
As she spoke, she glanced at Bai Suihe's bulging belly. "And Aunt, don't you want the child in your belly to make a name for himself?
"Only by returning to the Gu Family, with Grandfather's and my father's guidance, will he have the chance to succeed. And you might even earn an imperial title of honor as a matriarch in the future."
