Chapter 177: Teaming up to trick the old man



Could it be that my wife wanted to limit her drinking and brought me such a small bottle?

Didn't I promise her that I would never drink too much?

I've been strictly following this rule for so many days, why is she still so cautious?

What a stingy person.

Let’s see how I deal with her when I get home tonight.

Old Master Gu curled his lips and glared at his wife.

Ms. Lin Yaru, together with the third girl Gu Feiyan, looked at everyone else, pretending they saw nothing and just went about setting the table.

No one paid any attention to him, so Mr. Gu turned his attention back to the wine.

What kind of wine is this? It looks quite clear, and there is no label on it. How come there is not even a name of the wine? Mr. Gu was a little dissatisfied.

There was no shortage of good wine at home, and maybe his wife just changed the bottle to a smaller one, so he didn't take it too seriously.

"Dad, my older brother is not at home, so mom and I will have a drink with you tonight." Gu Feiyan took the initiative.

The eldest son of the Gu family, Gu Feifan, and the second son, Gu Feiyong, have both started their own families and have long since moved out of their home. The kid Gu Feihan has been driven away, and the old man is usually a bit lonely.

"Okay, but you can only drink two cups. It's not much anyway, so save it for me." Old Man Gu muttered, and then added, "Your mother shouldn't drink. She is a typical person who gets drunk after one glass of wine."

Lin Yaru blushed after taking a sip. She felt uncomfortable and Mr. Gu felt distressed.

It's clearly a double standard.

"Okay, you two drink. I won't snatch it from you." Lin Yaru smiled and glared at Mr. Gu.

Gu Feiyan couldn't help but shudder when she saw the old couple being so affectionate with each other.

I’ve had enough of the dog food every day.

I have to get that annoying little brother back no matter what. The little brat has no idea how much excess sugar has accumulated in his heart and is on the verge of choking to death.

We share the burden and eat dog food together.

As Gu Feiyan spoke, he reached out and unscrewed the cap of the wine bottle.

A distant yet familiar fragrance slowly drifted into Mr. Gu's nostrils. It was a smell from deep in his memory.

Mr. Gu was stunned for a moment.

This taste...? Gu Feiyan filled the old man's cup and added another for herself, "Dad, I haven't drank with you for a long time, let me toast you first."

Lin Yaru rolled her eyes and gently slapped Gu Feiyan's hand, "Eat the food first. How can you drink on an empty stomach? Nonsense!"

Gu Feiyan took these words to heart, but Old Man Gu did not.

He picked up the wine cup, sniffed it carefully at the tip of his nose, and drank the whole cup in one gulp.

This taste...! Mr. Gu had already drunk it, so Gu Feiyan had to catch up. Ignoring Lin Yaru's look, she gulped down the cup.

"Grandpa and you two are fooling around, hurry up and eat your food." Lin Yaru hurriedly picked up a piece of stewed tofu for Grandpa Gu.

Old Master Gu stared blankly without moving his chopsticks. He picked up the empty wine cup and smelled it again.

An even more puzzled expression appeared on his face.

"Where did this sorghum wine come from?" asked Mr. Gu.

The mother and daughter both looked at the sky, and neither of them responded to the conversation.

Old Master Gu asked the third girl to pour him another cup, and they took turns drinking. It was only two ounces, and they soon finished the bottle.

Mr. Gu had a good appetite for dinner and ate one more bowl of rice than usual.

There is one thing——

I didn’t drink enough…!!

The next day, mother and daughter did the same thing. Gu Feiyan called her second brother to help. Old Man Gu ate with relish and drank even more with relish. Unfortunately, because of the second brother's presence, he could drink even less.

On the third day, the boss took action.

On the fourth day, the eldest, second and third brothers gathered together, as if they were going to pay their respects to the old man.

Old Master Gu held the wine bottle tightly and refused to give it to anyone.

If I don't give him such good wine, he will die of greed.

It’s not about how expensive or fragrant the wine is. Of course, the wine is fragrant. The point is that the old man drank the same flavor of wine in Jibei Province when he was young and had a military career.

It was a fierce battle. Only a few hundred of them killed more than two thousand Japanese devils.

It was a celebratory wine, but it was also a wine brewed from years of licking blood on the tip of a gun.

The wine I drank that time tasted exactly the same as the one in this small bottle.

Later, no matter how much good wine the children bought for him, it was not as delicious as the wine he drank after fighting for more than ten days.

Mr. Gu was about to pour himself a glass of wine, but Lin Yaru snatched the bottle away and said, "What are you drinking?"

As she said this, she poured a full cup for each of the eldest, second and third sons.

The three children looked at their father and laughed.

"Where did this wine come from?" Mr. Gu was anxious, and asked weakly: "Do you have any more at home?"

Lin Yaru rolled her eyes at him and said, "There's none at home, but there are some outside."

Is there any outside? "Yes, your son who is living outside has it." Lin Yaru smiled calmly.

Search!

Unfilial!

How dare he do this to his own father! Very good.

very good.

Mr. Gu, who was tricked, turned pale.

Isn’t it only the most unfilial youngest son who has it?

But who made Mr. Gu crave this?

When he returned to the room at night, Mr. Gu lay on the bed, worrying his heart out.

Lin Yaru patted him on the shoulder and said, "Let Lao Si come back. To be honest with you, I have already secretly visited the child. He is doing serious work in Jibei, and no one can find fault with it."

Old Master Gu snorted.

I don’t know if it can be considered as consent.

Ms. Lin Yaru didn't care about all that and must have agreed.

Based on her understanding of her old man, he probably misses that brat very much. He talks tough but he just can't bring himself to do it.

The deeper the love, the more severe the criticism.

When the first few children were born, life was unstable and the old man was busy with work. Even if he wanted to take care of them, he didn't have the time or energy.

Only his youngest son was born when he was 48 years old.

At that time, everything happened to be going well in their life and career, and they had relatively plenty of time. Later, there was a long period of unrest, and only the third and fourth children were with them.

Feiyan is a girl, so she is naturally closer to her mother.

The remaining youngest son often follows the old man closely.

The time this father and son have spent together is more than the previous three combined, so Gu Feihan's temperament is most like that of the old man.

The brat has been smart and hot-tempered since he was young. Apart from earning the title of "little devil" for his ability to do anything, everything else suits the old man's taste and is more to his liking.

I haven't seen you for such a long time, I'm afraid you must be missing me so much.

Of course, Mr. Gu missed his youngest son.

In addition to missing my son, I also want to meet my future daughter-in-law.

Don't think he doesn't know that Lin Yaru secretly went to see the brat and the future daughter-in-law that the brat had his eyes on.

After Lin Yaru came back from the business trip, she was in a very good mood and he noticed something was wrong.

The last time the mother and daughter were hiding in the room and whispering to him, he eavesdropped the entire time, not missing a word.

From what I heard, she must be a good girl who can subdue that evil spirit.
