Chapter 284 Wanting to Adopt That Child



Upon hearing that person's name, Gu Sinian had a bad feeling.

He's been incredibly patient all these years, never once coming to the garrison.

Gu Sinian never asked about her affairs, nor did he want to get involved.

He didn't know whether she had been doing well all these years.

Today, Grandma suddenly brought up this old name, which made him momentarily lost in thought, but only for a brief moment. He quickly returned to his usual indifferent attitude.

"What shocking thing has she done this time?"

Yan Yan was speechless for a moment, unsure how to respond.

Sigh, only Gu Sinian, the son of the Gu family, truly understands his daughter-in-law who has a screw loose.

She didn't know what adjective to use to describe her.

The only word to describe it is "sick".

And it's the kind of virus that's unclear.

Yan Yan really didn't know how to start the conversation, so she tugged at Gu Huadong beside her, "I really can't bring myself to say this to you. It's easier for men to talk to each other."

Gu Huadong looked helpless. He had been tricked by his wife his whole life, so what did it matter this time? It was indeed more appropriate for him to speak up in this matter.

"this……"

Gu Sinian unconsciously tightened his grip on Xiaobao, causing Xiaobao's eyebrows to furrow.

"Handsome uncle, you're hurting me."

Coming to his senses, Gu Sinian apologized repeatedly, "I'm sorry. Where did I get this on you?"

"It hurts when you squeeze my hand."

After realizing what had happened, Gu Sinian stared at the child's hand that he had grabbed so hard earlier, feeling a little guilty.

Luckily, he didn't use too much force, otherwise the child's arm would have been ruined. "Does it still hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt anymore."

Gu Sinian squatted down and put the child down. "You go play with the pretty auntie and brother first. The handsome uncle will come to find you later, okay?"

The little guy nodded. "Okay."

Seeing that the child was really alright, he wiped away his smile and his face was now full of gloom.

The man stood up, walked to Gu Huadong's side, and asked in a voice that the two of them could hear.

"Just say what you want to say. The child isn't here, so you don't need to hold back."

Gu Huadong sighed and recounted the whole story.

That's roughly how things are. What are your thoughts?

Gu Sinian gave a sneer, "Do I have the right to comment? She's a mentally ill lunatic. I can't be bothered to say a word to her. Let her be."

"If even her husband can't handle her, how could I?"

"By the way, what was my dad's attitude?"

Gu Huadong shook his head. "I'm not too sure about that. I heard he got really angry, slammed the door and left, and didn't come home for a whole day and night."

Gu Sinian had no expectations for his father. After all, no matter how angry he was, he would immediately change his stance as soon as that woman spoke in a coquettish tone.

He still can't understand how his father, such an outstanding person, could fall for a woman like Li Yaxian; it's utterly astonishing.

That woman is only slightly pretty; she's utterly useless. I really don't know what her father saw in her.

"He may be angry, but he'll compromise soon enough. Isn't that how he's always been? There's nothing different. Don't have too many expectations of him."

Old Master Gu had no idea what sins he had committed to marry such a troublemaker.

It disrupted their peace and quiet, preventing them from taking care of their families.

What are your thoughts?

"I have no opinion. If that woman takes the child back, I will never go back to the Gu family again. I don't want my wife to feel uncomfortable, and I feel uncomfortable just looking at her."

“When we go back to Beijing, I’ll go live with my wife at the Qin family home to avoid this eyesore.”

Don't even mention the grandson being an eyesore, he's even more an eyesore...

It doesn't feel like home.

It's more like a mental hospital.

"Nonsense! How can you not go home after returning to Beijing? That's your wife's family home. What kind of behavior is it to stay at someone else's house every day?"

"Don't worry, if that madman dares to take that child home, I'll kick the whole couple out so they won't be an eyesore."

"You'd better keep your word; he's your only son."

"What a load of rubbish! I have grandchildren and great-grandchildren, what use are those two annoying things?"

“Our Gu family is large and prosperous, do we need to adopt Qiao Xiyan’s son? I think your mother is simply crazy.”

Gu Sinian agreed with this statement. His family didn't care about him; whenever he had free time, he would go to the prison to see that Qiao Xiyan.

The illness is quite serious, even terminal.

Neuropathy.

"She's definitely crazy. Knowing that our family was almost ruined by Qiao Xiyan, she still dared to go to her. She's missing a screw; she probably wasn't cleaned out of her brain when she was born."

Perhaps.

Why would she suddenly want to adopt that child?

Gu Huadong rubbed his temples helplessly. "How was I supposed to know? All the trouble she caused was resolved by your stupid father."

"The sudden desire to adopt Qiao Xiyan's son must be because something happened, but I'm not entirely sure."

Gu Sinian observed Gu Huadong's expression; his face remained relatively calm, so he probably didn't know about the other matter.

If we don't speak out now, that woman might really do something stupid, which would then implicate the Gu family.

Grandpa and Grandma had finally returned to a normal life, and they didn't want them to be sent down to the countryside again at their advanced age.

Although there are fewer people being sent down to lower levels now, there are still some. With so many documents every day, he can see through the tricks.

The era of being sent to the countryside may be coming to an end; it's only a matter of time.

"Grandpa, do you know what that woman did?"

Seeing his grandson's serious attitude, Gu Sinian had a bad feeling.
