Gu Ye was driving, and Gu Ze was also driving. The two cars were parked one after the other at the entrance of the cemetery.
Today is May 1st, not Qingming Festival or any other day for ancestor worship. The cemetery is relatively quiet, with only one or two people occasionally walking around.
Bonnie had visited this cemetery several times, the first time being when she and Gu Ye returned to Beijing for the first time.
Gu Ze and Gu Ye got out of the car with their wives and children. Everyone looked quite serious. Apart from Gu Ze and Gu Ye, no one else here had ever seen this legendary figure before.
Gu Ze and Gu Ye walked in front, with the others following behind.
Upon arriving at Comrade Xu Ning's grave, we stood in order. The name engraved on the tombstone is Xu Ning, and the people who erected the tombstone are Gu Ze and Gu Ye.
This is a solitary grave. Xu Ning's last words were that she should be buried as a daughter of the Xu family, and that she should not be buried with Gu Xiangdong, nor should Gu Xiangdong be allowed to appear in front of her grave. This was proposed in front of Old Master Gu.
Gu Ze squatted down, took out a handkerchief, and gently wiped his mother's tombstone. So much time had passed that, apart from a few blurry photos in the album, it was difficult to find any memories of his mother.
Gu Ye placed two pots of flowers in front of the grave; in this kind of weather, the flowers could bloom for a long time.
"Mom, Gu Ye and I have brought the children to see you. I've kept my promise from back then, taking good care of my younger siblings, and I'm doing very well myself."
Mom, I have three sons, all of whom are doing well and have their own things to do. They may not become people who go down in history like you, but they will also not become people who harm society.
Gu Ze talked on and on, and the three brothers, Gu Xuanyu, also greeted him.
It was Gu Ye's turn. Including Mu Nanfang, there were five people in total.
"Mom, don't worry, I'm still alive and well, with the best wife and children. In the future, we will be a happy old couple, seeing all the beautiful scenery you've never seen and eating all the delicious food you've never tasted."
Gu Ye squatted down and stroked each word on the tombstone with his hand.
Bonnie squatted down next to Gu Ye, doing nothing but simply keeping him company.
Liu Jiu and Mu Nanfang also stepped forward to greet her, in a very proper and formal manner; she didn't know how to express herself.
"Grandma, hello. I am Gu Xuanming, nickname Sanqi. I am the best-looking of your five grandchildren. When you were young, I would definitely be the handsome young master of the nation."
They're a bit shy, so let me introduce you to your children and grandchildren.
Your eldest son, Gu Ze, has just been transferred back to Beijing and will soon assume the position of mayor. His future is limitless. Your aunt's efforts in helping your uncle consolidate his power base have been invaluable.
My eldest brother, Gu Xuanyu, graduated with a master's degree from Renmin University and has just started serving the people. He'll gradually catch up with my uncle. The only problem is that he doesn't have a suitable partner yet, which makes my aunt quite anxious.
Your second grandson, Gu Xuanyi, designs clothing at Tsinghua University and has also learned embroidery. Perhaps he will become an internationally renowned fashion designer in the future. Your youngest grandson, Gu Xuanhao, loves swimming; maybe he'll bring home an Olympic gold medal someday.
Your second son, Gu Ye, whom you worried about, is now the enviable Commander Gu, and recently the stars on his shoulders have changed again. Lin Baoni, your second daughter-in-law, although she can't cook or sew, is exceptionally good at managing money, ensuring your children and grandchildren have no worries about food and clothing.
However, in my dad's heart, my mom comes first, and I know that all too well. But it's good that my parents have a good relationship; I don't worry about them breaking down and us being forced to choose between living with my dad or my mom. Sorry, Grandma, just kidding.
Gu Yun Chu, your only granddaughter, is incredibly skilled in combat. She's currently a university student at the Air Force Command Academy and will be flying fighter jets in the future. If you ever meet a handsome female pilot thousands of meters in the air, that's your granddaughter.
As for me, Gu Xuanming, I'm quite capable too. I'm fluent in three foreign languages, thanks to Ms. Zhai, whom you know. In the future, I might become a strong diplomat, letting the world know the might of our Eastern Dragon.
Oh, and there's another unofficial member, Mu Nanfang, Gu Liujiu's boyfriend, who's also a nice person. As for whether he'll become my brother-in-law, only time will tell.
Mu Nanfang stared at the back of his brother-in-law's head. Honestly, if they weren't in a cemetery, he would have liked to give him a good rub.
Okay, that's all for my introduction for now. I'll come back and introduce you again when I'm married and have kids. Haha... Grandma, wasn't my introduction quite detailed and made you feel proud? Whose child or grandchild is this? How can they be so outstanding!
"Ha ha……"
As soon as Sanqi finished speaking, everyone laughed, and the originally sad scene was instantly filled with joy.
"Well done! If your grandma were still here, she would definitely love you the most. She was also a proud and confident comrade who never thought she was inferior to anyone!"
Brother Gu put his arm around Sanqi's shoulder, his eyes welling up with tears. This child had said something none of them dared to say. Her mother must be so happy; her children and grandchildren hadn't let her down!
Finally, the group bowed three times to the tombstone before leaving.
Gu Ye took a few steps, then looked back. He felt his mother's gaze seeing them off as they left.
Back in the courtyard house, Gu Ze took out the family photo album, a very old-fashioned one.
“Look, here are some photos of your grandmother when she was young. Several of them were taken in this courtyard house. Back then, she was very young and had a student-style haircut.”
Gu Ze handed the photo album to the children, letting them see their grandmother's life.
Gu Xuanyu took his younger siblings to look at the photo album. They also wanted to learn about the grandmother that their father and second uncle had talked about, as she was an extraordinary woman.
