When the group returned to the courtyard, they saw Gu Shouxin sitting dejectedly under a big tree, sitting on the ground without even a bench.
Gu Shouxin glanced at the group of people, then lowered his head again.
Lu Zheng stepped forward with a smile: "Second Uncle, it's only April, it's not that hot! Why are you sitting here?"
Gu Shouxin glanced at Gu Nian and said irritably, "You scolded a girl and made her cry, and now your aunt is unhappy and won't let me into the house."
Lu Zheng laughed gleefully: "Hahaha, Second Uncle, how about coming to my house for the night?"
Gu Shouxin glared at Lu Zheng.
At this moment, Gu Xin and Gu Si, who had been secretly observing from the window of the main room, ran out.
She held Gu Nian's hand: "Sister, where did you go? I was so worried about you. Father was scolded by Mother, scolded so badly, really, Mother and I are on your side."
Gu Nian's eyes stung, and she felt like crying too.
She turned around and knelt down in front of Gu Shouxin: "Father, I'm sorry."
Everyone was stunned; they hadn't expected Gu Nian to kneel down so suddenly.
Gu Shouxin: "Didn't you say I favored A-Yuan? What have you done wrong? I'm the one who should have wronged you! I shouldn't have favored A-Yuan."
Lu Zheng: Is this related to me?
Gu Nian cried, "Father, I didn't know the truth and made you suffer. It's my fault. I was blinded by greed and my mind was clouded. I shouldn't have slammed the door and argued with you. I know you were just trying to help me. I was being willful. I'm sorry, Father, I was wrong. I will never slam the door again."
Gu Shouxin sighed. Okay, he forgave his daughter.
Such a proud and arrogant girl, to have to apologize like that in front of her siblings, she probably really feels guilty.
Gu Shouxin: "Then I can't go inside right now."
Gu Nian smiled: "Okay! I'll go tell my mother right away."
...
In the main room, Cai Lian looked at the father and daughter and said, "From now on, Niannian, if you are angry with your father, you are not allowed to slam the door. And you, if you are angry with this daughter, you can't take it out on the other daughter."
Gu Shouxin and Gu Nian obediently replied, "Okay."
Gu Xin: "Mom, Dad didn't get angry at me. I was angry on my own, I..."
Cai Lian glared at Gu Xin: "Next time you see this, don't cry. Just grab them both and keep an eye on them until I get back. Remember, tears are the most useless thing."
Gu Xin: "...Oh."
Cai Lian then looked at Gu Hui and her two siblings: "Huihui, you are the eldest sister. You need to look after your younger siblings and show your authority as the eldest sister!"
“Sisi, you’re the younger sister. You can’t just cry because Gu Xin is crying. Your second uncle looks scary. If he dares to yell at or scold you for no reason, give him to me and I’ll help you! What are you crying for? If anyone in our family cries over the smallest thing in the future, I’ll add ten pounds to the sandbags on your hands and feet!”
"Enzi, you, um, you did nothing wrong!"
The four Gu sisters: "!"
Gu En: I was so scared! It was like seeing Grandma scolding Dad and his family. (From the entire internet)
Gu Hui and Gu Nian said in unison, "Enzi saw Liu get angry this afternoon and didn't respond in time."
Cai Lian looked at Gu En.
Gu En: "!"
Gu En waved her hands repeatedly, trying to explain herself: "Second Aunt, no, it's not that I wasn't timely, it's just that as soon as you came back, Second Sister was called into the house by Second Uncle."
Gu Shouxin: "I did not ask him not to go out."
Gu En felt wronged, but dared not speak out against it.
Cai Lian sighed, suddenly understanding Grandma Gu's thoughts. Ugh, what a mess! Everything's just awful!
Cai Lian then looked at Lu Zheng.
Lu Zheng: "Aunt Lian, I just arrived in the prefectural city, intending to talk to my second uncle. I don't know what happened!"
Cai Lian: "Why didn't you come earlier?"
Cai Lian has completely learned Grandma Gu's attitude of treating everyone equally.
Lu Zheng: I'm so wronged!
