Gu Xin calmed herself down, looked around, then sat on the stroller, took Grandma Gu's hand, and whispered, "Grandma, are you scared?"
Grandma Gu shook her head: "There's nothing to be afraid of. Once we get past the Goddess Mountain checkpoint, everything will be easy. I just... miss your grandpa a little!"
Gu Xin: "!"
"Hahaha..." Gu Xin couldn't help but laugh. "Grandma, I'm sure Grandpa is thinking about you too! Grandma, can you tell me about what happened between you and Grandpa when you were young? Anyway, we'll have to wait a while."
Grandma Gu patted Gu Xin's hand, remained silent for a while, and then spoke up when Gu Xin thought she wouldn't say anything.
Grandpa Gu fled to their village and fainted, but she and her father rescued him.
Grandma Gu was born with superhuman strength and didn't have many friends in the village. When she went to the county with her father to sell their game, she met Grandma Xiao, who was learning medicine from her master.
The two got along well and became good friends. They would chat about which young master in the county was handsome, and occasionally tease and prank others.
Grandma Gu didn't know what kind of man she liked. After saving Grandpa Gu, he woke up and was cleaned up, and Grandpa Gu was the one she fell for at first sight.
Because Grandma Gu had never seen such a handsome man before, even if he was sickly.
Grandma Xiao's master was a highly skilled doctor who treated Grandpa Gu.
Grandpa Gu served as the crown prince in the palace for ten years before suddenly falling seriously ill and being replaced. However, he never stopped taking his medicine.
However, the doctor that the Empress Dowager found was unable to cure Grandpa Gu's illness, while Grandma Xiao's master traveled all over the country and used the method of fighting poison with poison.
Grandma Gu suffered a lot to save Grandpa Gu, even taking poison herself, just to have the poison in her blood to reduce its toxicity so she could give it to Grandpa Gu to drink.
Grandpa Gu's illness has been cured, but he still needs recuperation, and he may never be able to do heavy work again.
Grandma Gu's father noticed his daughter's feelings for this mysterious young man, so he went directly to Grandpa Gu and asked him if he would be willing to marry into the family.
Grandpa Gu was naturally willing, and during their time together, he couldn't help but fall in love with Grandma Gu as well.
So be it, I'll marry into his family!
The royal family doesn't need his descendants to carry on the family line; without Grandma Gu, he would be nothing more than a dead man.
So, after Grandma Xiao's master cured Grandma Gu of the poison, the two got married.
Grandma Xiao got married before Grandma Gu. Both of them married the most handsome men they had ever seen. However, now that they are older, Grandpa Zhou has grown into a chubby man, while Grandpa Gu has maintained a very good figure and is a handsome old man among his peers.
They've been together for forty years, weathering so many storms together. To suddenly be separated for a few days is something they truly miss.
Gu Xin asked enviously, "Grandma, I've heard people say that couples who spend a lot of time together develop a deep affection for each other, is that true?"
Grandma Gu shook her head: "Family ties are family ties, and romantic love is romantic love. Loving your family is different from loving your partner. Family is connected by blood, which cannot be severed. A partner is someone you share feelings with and who accompanies you for life. Especially for us women, family consists of parents, siblings, and children. No matter who they are, they cannot accompany you from childhood to old age. Parents will pass away before you, and siblings and children will all have their own families. Only a partner is someone who stays with you throughout your life. There is no blood relation, but they accompany you throughout your life. That is the difference between family and partner."
