With the real thing out, coupled with Gu Xin's indifferent expression that was exactly the same as Grandma Gu's, Old Mrs. Zhang was truly frightened.
Cai Xiaolian and Gu Si ran out.
Grandma Zhang saw Gu Si as if she had seen a savior. She crawled back a few steps, then bypassed Gu Xin and grabbed Gu Si: "Er Ya, save Grandma, save Grandma! Your cousin is going to kill Grandma!"
Gu Si pried open Old Mrs. Zhang's hands: "From now on, I have no grandmother. My mother's mother doesn't want her anymore, so please go back, old lady! I'm also a member of the Gu family, and I won't stand by and watch outsiders cause trouble here."
Cai Xiaolian coldly pulled Gu Si aside and looked at Old Madam Zhang.
Gu Xin, holding a dagger, walked over step by step.
A red lantern hung at the gate, its dim light warm, but the dagger in Gu Xin's hand gleamed coldly. Old Mrs. Zhang was startled and ran away cursing.
When the cursing stopped, Gu Xin felt relieved. The dagger in her hand fell to the ground, and she felt a little weak.
Cai Xiaolian caught her.
Gu Xin whispered, "Mom, I hit someone, I hit an old lady."
Cai Xiaolian hugged Gu Xin: "Xin Xin, whether you're old or young, it's not a reason to throw a tantrum! She had a sharp tongue and deserved to be hit! Don't feel guilty!"
Gu Xin: "I can't stand it when others insult you, insult Dad, insult my sister. Mom, don't be sad. If anyone insults you again, I'll still fight back for you!"
Cai Xiaolian's heart melted, and she couldn't help but peck Gu Xin on the cheek: "Baby, I'm so lucky to be your mother. You and Niannian are the best gifts God has given me."
Gu Xin: "Mother, and Father too, and Father as well."
Cai Xiaolian was taken aback, then smiled helplessly: "Yes, your father, you two sisters are the best gifts God has given to your mother."
Gu Xin smiled: "Mom, in the future, my sister, my brother, and I will definitely have a younger brother."
Cai Xiaolian: Your sister says you're a lucky charm, that you can have anything you want, but you're making your mother so scared!
Cai Xiaolian led the two children back into the house. Empress Dowager Jiang pulled Gu Xin aside and rubbed her little hand: "Baby, does your hand hurt?"
Gu Xin was taken aback, finding the question rather strange.
Cai Xiaolian: Your Majesty, is this how you teach your grandchildren?
She didn't know that the emperor's children ranged in age from seventeen to three, and none of them were close to the emperor and empress dowager. This was one of the reasons why the emperor and empress dowager liked Gu Jia's children so much.
Empress Dowager Jiang said with a disapproving look, "Don't use your own hand to slap people in the future. I'll have someone make you a small wooden block. That way, you can hurt people without hurting your own hand."
Gu Xin's eyes lit up: "Yes, thank you, Grandma Jiang. I also feel that my hand hurts when I slap myself."
Empress Dowager Jiang smiled with satisfaction and patted Gu Xin's hand: "You did a good job. If anyone curses you like that in the future, keep hitting them. It would be best to knock out their teeth so they can't speak properly and can't curse anymore. Teach them a lesson."
Gu Xin nodded: "Yes, I'll remember, Grandma Jiang."
Empress Dowager Jiang glanced outside, pursed her lips, and said, "Xiao Lian, we don't know when they will be back. Xin Xin and Si Si are growing, so why don't we set out a meal and let the two children eat their fill before we wait?"
Cai Xiaolian slapped her forehead: "Look at me, I completely forgot about that. I'll go do it!"
Empress Dowager Jiang waved her hand: "No need, no need, I've already asked Granny Gui to prepare it. It should be ready by now. Let's all go to the kitchen to eat!"
