Si Zhennan took a sip of AD calcium and handed the bottle on the table to Ye Weiwei.
He patted her head and said cheerfully, "My dear, accompany Brother Gu An to the East Cross Courtyard first. Grandfather will talk to your aunt."
Ye Weiwei raised her little face and made an OK sign seriously, then took Gu An for a walk in the garden while holding her breast.
"Man, follow me."
Gu An's mouth twitched.
"Go ahead, I'll come find you later." Si Hong said softly.
Si Zhennan waved amiably and waited for the two to leave before speaking slowly.
"My dear granddaughter, tell me the truth. Why did you pass it on to this child?"
Si Hong lowered her eyes, then raised her head and smiled mischievously, "I won't tell you."
"Hey, you little girl, I'm the birthday boy today, and the birthday boy has the biggest demands."
"When you give a gift, there must be instructions." Si Zhennan narrowed his eyes and acted coquettishly, with a cunning look in his eyes.
Si Hong rubbed Grandpa's shoulders and couldn't help but smile, "You are the eldest in our family."
"Then you still let me guess? My daughter's heart is as mysterious as the sea. I can't guess it."
Si Hong tied up her hair and explained Gu An's life story in a low voice.
"He's the one who's willing to hold an umbrella for me. He's special."
I remember that umbrella had a hole in it and is still in the office.
Si Hong's pretty mouth corners lifted slightly.
"I didn't want Gu An to be bullied. That's why I passed it to him."
Si Zhennan twirled his beard and pondered, "This kid's personality is as pure as water, but he's still young."
"I will give him time to grow into a towering tree that can shelter him from the wind and rain."
Si Hong said confidently: "Now, let me protect him first."
"The Si family's 36 Sanshou styles are not taught to outsiders. Does Grandpa need to give him an identity in advance?"
"Why, are you still afraid that I will lose to Weiwei?"
"Hey, Grandpa, I don't want to see Ye Xiaodong's smug face."
Si Zhennan gets angry whenever he mentions this young brother from the Ye family in Beijing.
He took advantage of his seniority and used a bottle of AD calcium that appeared and disappeared mysteriously to compete with me for my great-granddaughter.
What's even more outrageous is that he actually took his children and moved to Jiangcheng.
Mo Yuan walked in and said respectfully, "Master, all the guests are here."
Si Zhennan nodded to Mo Yuan: "Weiwei and Gu An'er are in the garden, go call them back, and we will go to the front hall together."
"yes."
The five people came to the front hall and Si Zhennan sat in the main seat.
Next to the main seat, Gu An was sandwiched between Ye Weiwei and Si Hong.
The order from youngest to oldest is quite interesting.
"Dear friends and guests, today is my father's eightieth birthday. My eldest brother and I wish him good health and a long life.
Thank you all for visiting my humble home. I hope you will forgive me if I have been negligent.
After Si Dingzhou gave his speech, everyone came forward to wish him a happy birthday.
Si Hong ignored her father's surprised look, holding Ye Weiwei with one hand and Gu An with the other.
Jiang Xiaoxiao jumped up and down beside him, "And me, hello, little brother Gu An. I'm Jiang Xiaoxiao."
"Hello, Sister Xiaoxiao." After greeting, Gu An's face turned slightly red and he turned his head to look at Si Hong.
Sister Xiaoxiao is not small at all. She is dazzling.
Don’t look around randomly, just look at the pretty sister.
Jiang Xiaoxiao glanced at the palms of their hands and wanted to squeeze in between Si Hong and Gu An. Si Hong pretended not to understand and did not let go.
Unable to squeeze in, Jiang Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth and had to hold Weiwei's hand.
The four of them politely saluted Si Zhennan before returning to their original positions.
"Who is the boy my daughter is holding hands with?" Si Dingzhou raised his thick eyebrows slightly, squinted his eyes and asked his wife in a low voice.
"I haven't heard Xiaohong mention it. I'll ask about it tonight." Wen Qing frowned.
My daughter is so tight-lipped. It's like this boy just appeared out of nowhere.
"Ask Xiaoxiao. She's always with her daughter, so she should know."
Si Dingzhou's eyes were filled with concern, and his brows were slightly furrowed. "Did the children of those families all fail?"
"I've been scared by your daughter's beatings since I was a child. It's hard."
"This time, when my niece Manli returned to Beijing, her belly was clearly visible. My eldest brother and his wife were grinning from ear to ear.
There are some things I can't say, so as a mother, you should try to persuade her more."
"Please, please, please. My daughter told me yesterday that we should give her a brother or sister."
Wen Qing rolled her eyes at her husband.
Si Dingzhou lowered his head and thought.
"Hey, you old thing, you really dare to think about it?"
"Madam, please don't do anything. There are outsiders here."
Si Dingzhou laughed dryly, his eyes constantly glancing at Gu An.
Tsk, this kid is a little too naive! Is my daughter into this?
Or is it that the daughter couldn't rely on her parents, so she found a younger brother for herself?
"Don't scare the child." Wen Qing nudged her husband with her elbow.
"No, I think he's quite calm and has quite a bit of courage."
Si Dingzhou was satisfied. Most of the guests today came from the political and business circles, and they had been in high positions for a long time and had great power.
This child can remain calm in public.
Gu An's palms were sweaty, and he blinked his black eyes to meet everyone's inquiring gazes, feeling uneasy.
"Beautiful sister, they all seem to be looking at me."
"Be more confident and take away the "if"."
Si Hong curled the corners of her lips slightly. Not everyone can stand by her side.
"Don't be afraid, sister is here to protect you." The little girl looked up to comfort him.
"Xiao Weiwei, Aunt Xiao is also protecting you." Jiang Xiaoxiao said.
Ye Weiwei turned her head and saw that her vision was blocked. She pouted and thought, "You have already covered me."
Si Dingzhou was a politician, so the birthday banquet was simple.
He knew that the old man preferred traditional Chinese food, and the dishes were full of Beijing characteristics.
Gu An was called by Si Zhennan to sit next to him, which shocked all the younger generations.
