Gu Pan gritted his teeth and hated the nanny who had taken care of Xie Wan.
I always feel that if it weren't for her, the relationship between her and her son Xie Zheng wouldn't be so cold now.
Xie Zheng clearly called her mother, but she didn't see much tenderness in his eyes. Not to mention for herself, not even for Xi Chao who always loved him.
Gu Pan felt from the bottom of his heart that Xie Zheng was an ungrateful person who could never be tamed, so he became more partial to Xie Wan. Looking at his daughter crying sadly in his arms, Gu Pan frowned.
"A Zheng, if you still hold a grudge against your sister and me for that little thing, I'll apologize to you, right? But you still have to help your brother-in-law. After all, Xie Wan is your sister. You can't just watch her suffer, right?"
After a pause, Gu Pan continued, "Although your future looks bright now, with your grandfather as your backer, you don't have to worry about others tripping you up, and your promotions are fast, but to be frank, your job is really dangerous. If something goes wrong, your three children will have to rely on your uncle Shengtian in the future..."
Before Gu Pan could finish his words, Xie Zheng suddenly looked up with a gaze as cold as ice.
Xie Zheng always knew that he was not as good as Xie Wan in terms of Gu Pan, but he didn't expect that it was more than that. Gu Pan simply didn't have him in her heart. Just because he was unwilling to help Hua Shengtian to use connections, his good mother didn't even hesitate to talk about her own death.
It's really heartbreaking!
Xie Zheng stood up and told Gu Pan and Xie Wan to leave in a cold voice, but he didn't expect someone to get there first.
Wang Cuilan was unhappy with Gu Pan when she repeatedly asked Xie Zheng to use his connections to help Huashengtian against his will. However, considering that she was her elder, she suppressed her anger.
But when she heard her say that if Xie Zheng had an accident, her three children would have to rely on their uncle Hua Shengtian in the future, Wang Cuilan finally couldn't hold back her anger.
Gu Pan is the elder, Wang Cuilan can't do anything, but isn't there still Xie Wan? She is the apple of Gu Pan's eye, if she touches her, Gu Pan will be heartbroken!
After entering the room, he pushed the things in his hand forward and placed them in Xie Zheng's hand. Then, he took two steps at a time and walked to Xie Wan's side. He lifted her face, looked around, and sneered, "I heard you crying for a long time outside and thought you were crying so sadly. But after all, you are just pretending to cry!"
Xie Wan's chin was pinched, and she looked angry. She yelled, "Ahhh, what do you want to do, you country girl? Let me go quickly, or I'll make you pay!"
Xie Wan was still making harsh remarks.
Wang Cuilan sneered, "You want me to look good? How can you make me look good? Do you have the ability to do that?"
She slapped Xie Wan in the face. "Don't you like crying?" Wang Cuilan said fiercely, "Now I'll let you cry your heart out!"
"Ah!" Xie Wan screamed. She didn't expect Wang Cuilan to be so bold as to make a move. She was completely unprepared and received a strong slap in the face.
In addition, Wang Cuilan did not hold back, so Xie Wan's face immediately swelled up.
Gu Pan looked distressed and cursed, "Wang Cuilan, you are so bold that you dare to hit Wanwan. Do you still have any rules?"
He stepped forward and raised his hand to slap Wang Cuilan, but was blocked by Xie Zheng. Gu Pan's arm was grabbed, and he could hardly move. He looked at Xie Zheng with a glare that was about to spit fire. "Xie Zheng, why did you grab me? Didn't you see Wang Cuilan hit your sister just now? Are you still trying to protect her?"
"I tell you, Xie Zheng, if you really dare to protect Wang Cuilan, a country woman, you will no longer be my son!" Gu Pan said hatefully.
Wang Cuilan sneered at this, "Now you know Xie Zheng is your son? Why didn't you think of him when Xie Zheng was wrongly accused by the nanny and beaten half to death by you as a child?"
"Just now, in order to get Xie Zheng to find connections for your son-in-law, you didn't hesitate to assume that Xie Zheng had an accident during the mission. Why didn't you think of this?"
Wang Cuilan raised her lips in a mocking arc and said to Gu Pan, "I've never seen anyone like you in my life. There are some who are partial, but you're the first one who would curse his own son to death for his son-in-law without hesitation. I've really been enlightened today!"
"Seeing you like this now, I finally understand why grandma disliked you in the first place. You can be so cruel to your own son. It's strange that grandma would like you!" Wang Cuilan shook her head with a look of disdain.
Actually, it wasn't like that. The old lady disliked Gu Pan at first because of one person, a person who almost became Xie Xichao's wife.
The old lady and the old man were both veteran comrades. During a sudden attack, the old lady and five-year-old Xie Xichao were separated from the main force. The old lady was injured while protecting the people from evacuation and was on the verge of death.
It was a fellow villager with a child who saved her.
My fellow villager is a young wife in her twenties who lives alone in the mountains with her daughter.
People living in the mountains all know something about herbal medicine, and the local woman used her very basic medical knowledge to luckily save the old lady.
While the old lady was recovering from her injuries, she learned through chatting that the reason her fellow villager saved a stranger, who she didn't know whether he was a good person or a bad person, during the war was because he noticed the five-pointed star on the old lady's hat.
The fellow villager’s husband followed the man with a five-pointed star on his hat and became one of them.
When the fellow villager saved the old lady, she was thinking that she had saved the person in front of her, and hoped that if her husband encountered danger in the future, there would be a kind-hearted person to save him and not let him lose his life.
I don’t know if God heard the fellow villager’s prayers, but when the fellow villager’s husband was injured during a mission and his life was hanging by a thread, a kind-hearted person did save him.
But they also fell in love and became revolutionary partners.
The old lady found out about this after the founding of the People's Republic of China, when a fellow villager came to her with an obviously dying body and wanted to entrust her daughter to her.
Chu Taohua, the daughter of a fellow villager, is a very simple girl, carefree and simple-minded. The old lady likes her very much, so she wants to make her her daughter-in-law.
The old lady had three sons. The eldest was married, the second had a partner, and the third, Xie Xichao, was still single and of similar age.
The old lady just wanted the third son Xie Xichao and Chu Taohua to try everything out, and she didn't say that she had to force them to get married. But Xie Xichao somehow misunderstood the old lady's intention and was very opposed to it.
