“Yes, let’s give her a good beating to vent our anger and avenge our poor, clueless Xin Xin.” Cai Xiaolian strongly agreed.
"Father, what do you think? Also, can you actually beat him?" Gu Nian asked again, seeing the Ninth Prince's gloomy face.
The Ninth Prince glanced at Gu Nian and calmly said, "I'm now considering how to kill him and escape unscathed!"
Cai Xiaolian thought to herself: "..."
Are all people in ancient times this individualistic? To just kill him outright—truly befitting a high-ranking official!
The mother and daughter had never encountered such direct methods in modern times.
“This, the Ninth Prince! This is a bit risky! He’s not some nobody. Not to mention anything else, just look at the Zhou family in town. They could crush us with a single finger. It’s better not to take the risk,” Cai Xiaolian advised.
“That’s right, Dad. We can’t let him put our family in such a predicament. We’ve only just been given a second chance at life, and Xin Xin is still so young. She’s never enjoyed a good life in either her past or present life. It’s really not worth it to push our family of four into danger because of this one person,” Gu Nian added, trying to persuade him.
"Okay." Gu Shouxin nodded, then said, "Let's do it Nian Nian's way. I'll go to town this afternoon, you guys get ready in a bit..."
...
When the family of three went to the old house, Grandma Gu had already prepared the wild boar.
That's right, it was Grandma Gu who handled it, not Gu Lao Si. Gu Lao Si just lent a hand.
Seeing that neither Gu Shouxin nor Cai Xiaolian were surprised, Gu Nian had no choice but to suppress her own surprise. What a fierce old lady!
Grandma Gu has already arranged for the pork to be sold, half of which will be sold to Manager Cheng, as the restaurant staff will buy it.
Of the remaining half, she kept one pig leg and ten pounds of meat at the old house, and had the second branch of the family take the rest back.
When Zhang, who was in confinement at home, heard her mother-in-law's arrangement, she was so angry that she gritted her teeth. Why? Why is it that she only gets this little bit?
I'm in postpartum confinement period, shouldn't I eat more meat?
Just as she was muttering to herself, Gu Hui came in to get something. Hearing her complaint, she said speechlessly, "That wild boar knows its way around and crashed into Uncle's house."
"Hey, you brat, you..."
"Mom, just give me a break! During your postpartum period, was your breast milk not enough to keep you full or your clothes not warm enough? If you hadn't gone to Uncle's house and made a scene last time, would my little brother have been born prematurely?"
Seeing that her mother's criticism was about to fall on her, Gu Hui quickly interrupted her and then turned and left the house.
"You brat, what's wrong with being premature? My Ren'er is still growing perfectly well, and her voice is loud and clear! You, you don't go..." Zhang wanted to curse, but the person was already gone.
The Gu family's premature grandson has already been named. This time, it wasn't Grandpa Gu who chose the name, but Uncle Gu. Uncle Gu directly named him "Ren" (meaning "endure" or "patience"). He said at the time that he hoped this little guy wouldn't be as impatient as when he was born, coming out prematurely. He should be more patient in everything he does.
"Niannian, what do you need this drain for?" In the kitchen, Grandpa Gu frowned as he looked at Gu Nian as she entered and asked.
"Grandpa, I'm planning to use this to make something delicious!" Gu Nian said.
"Huh? Sister, the heart, liver, and lungs all smell so fishy, and the large and small intestines smell so bad! Can we eat them?" Gu Xin stood next to Grandpa Gu, her little face scrunched up.
No wonder they're grandfather and grandson; their facial features look so alike when they make this expression.
