"Huh? Who is this aunt?" Gu Xin opened the door, saw Empress Dowager Jiang, paused for a moment, and then asked.
"Grandma Jiang, see? I didn't lie to you! I'm not the only one who says you look like Auntie!" Gu En turned to look at Grandma Jiang.
"Little girl, I am your Uncle Ye's mother. No matter how much I look like your aunt, you can only call me Grandma!" Empress Dowager Jiang said with a smile.
"Oh! You're Uncle Ye's mother! Where's Uncle Ye?" Gu Xin peeked out and looked in the direction they came from.
"Uncle Ye went to take care of some errands. He'll be having dinner with us tonight and asked us to take care of Grandma Jiang," Lu Zheng said with a smile, his hand resting on Gu Xin's head.
"Yuanyuan, you're not allowed to touch my head anymore! My hair was just combed!" Gu Xin glared at Lu Zheng, then pulled Jiang Taihou, "Grandma Jiang, Uncle Ye is a good friend of our family. Make yourself at home here, don't be afraid! I'll take you to meet my grandparents!"
"Okay, don't be afraid!" Empress Dowager Jiang smiled, her eyes crinkling. What an interesting child.
The Gu family was preparing breakfast. They had already prepared breakfast for Lu Zheng and Gu En, but with the addition of Empress Dowager Jiang, it would be enough.
The three time-traveling individuals looked at Empress Dowager Jiang with a sense of dismay. What kind of emperor was this? Not only did he love to come out and have fun, but he also brought his mother along? The key point is that he didn't even let her bring a maid or anything, but just let her come along directly. How much did he trust the Gu family?
Also, your mother is really young.
Empress Dowager Jiang was not at all reserved. After sitting down next to Grandma Gu, she said with a smile, "Sister Gu, you don't know, my silly son brought back some scrambled chili peppers from your house, and I love them. And your grandchildren are just as my silly son said, so adorable."
The time-traveling trio and Lu Zheng ate their food in silence, heads bowed. "You're probably the only one who dares to call the emperor a fool!"
Grandma Gu found Empress Dowager Jiang rather agreeable and replied, "Young Ye loves to eat. We have some new dishes at home recently. If you're not busy, you can come and eat together!"
Empress Dowager Jiang nodded repeatedly: "That would be wonderful! Ever since my son's father passed away, I've been thinking of going with him. But then I thought about how my son and his sister are so young, and my mother-in-law is getting old. It would be irresponsible of me to go. I've stayed at home all these years and rarely go out. It's only now that my son is older and can manage on his own, and I have nothing to do, that I've been able to come out and play. This time, I definitely want to stay at Sister Gu's house for a few more days. Sister Gu, please don't think I'm a bother!"
Grandpa Gu glanced at Empress Dowager Jiang, then lowered his head and ate in silence.
Grandma Gu didn't mind at all and said, "As long as you don't mind the poor environment in the countryside."
...
After dinner, Aunt Gu and her family of three came to pick them up so they could go watch the dragon boat races together.
Every year, Gyeongju Prefecture holds dragon boat races, which usually start at the beginning of the day (9-11 AM) and end at noon.
Gu Sangu's family of three came, but Qin Shi, Guo Wan, and Guo Yan did not come together, saying they wanted to go with Qin Shi's family.
Gu Sangu secretly complained to Cai Xiaolian that, in fact, Qin Shi had gone to find a partner for Guo Wanxiang.
Cai Xiaolian was speechless. Just last night she said she couldn't live without Gu Sangu, but this morning she was able to go out?
When Gu Sangu saw Lu Zheng, she smiled and whispered to Cai Xiaolian, "If my sister-in-law knew that A Yuan was here too, she would probably regret not coming!"
Cai Xiaolian glanced at Lu Zheng and thought to herself that Lu Zheng probably wouldn't fall for any other girl in this lifetime, so she advised, "You should talk to your sister-in-law instead of focusing your attention on A Yuan. It's no use."
