His son always reported good news and never bad news, so how could Gu Hanting not know his son and grandson?
He came over to talk to Jiang Qiao alone because he was worried. After all, it wasn't a happy thing, and he didn't want the rest of his family to worry.
When it came to Gu Zhengkai and his two sons, Jiang Qiao hesitated for a moment, but still chose to tell the truth. Who was her grandfather? Although he wasn't around, how could the old man not know anything about the situation around them?
“Someone is causing trouble for my uncle and his family, but it seems he can handle it for now. My uncle also said that he can protect my younger brother for the time being and keep him by his side. If the school resumes classes, he will let my younger brother go back to school. If there are any problems, he will send my younger brother back.”
My older brother is doing alright for now. Although he's not highly regarded, at least he still has a job to do.
Don't worry about this, I've thought it through. Once I've recovered, I'll go to the provincial capital for a while. First, I want to see who's causing trouble for my uncle, and second, I want to find out if the person who attacked me is actually in the provincial capital.
Grandpa, after this incident, I'll be more careful. But letting go is really unlikely now. The other side has already confronted me. If I let go, they won't. Rather than that, I'd rather take the initiative.
Gu Hanting knew a little about his granddaughter's thoughts, after all, the child had a whole family to support.
"Qiao'er, if you want to do it, just do it. Grandpa supports you. Also, you need to find a way to take care of your maternal grandfather. Your uncle is like this, and you can't count on your mother. Now, the old couple only have you, their granddaughter, to rely on."
You've been gone for four years. I'm worried that something might happen to the old couple's health. If they can't make it, you should go to your maternal grandfather's place first. Your mother is worried, but she doesn't know what's going on, so I don't dare tell her.
Jiang Qiao nodded, then sighed, "I realize there are too many things to do after I woke up, Grandpa, please give me some time, I'll take my time to handle them."
Remember this: don't leave Gujia Village easily. These are extraordinary times, so it's better to be careful than not.
If I'm not home, don't go anywhere, no matter who tries to take you out. Just stay at the cowshed, even if you throw a tantrum, just wait for me to come back.
Gu Hanting smiled and patted his granddaughter's hair. "Grandpa remembers, try not to go out. Even if you do go out, I'll go with you."
With our Qiao'er here, Grandpa isn't afraid of anything. He can rest well and then resume his training later.
When Gu Hanting returned, he heard what his granddaughter had said earlier. His granddaughter had only just regained consciousness, and the girl was already in such a state, yet she still spoke so frankly in front of so many people. How could he, as her grandfather, not be moved?
In the past two years, it would be a lie to say that he wasn't afraid. How could he not understand the current situation?
He was conflicted because he understood this; he didn't want to force his two sons to make a choice because of himself.
He had been anxious and conflicted about this matter, but what truly put his mind at ease was his granddaughter's words. With his granddaughter's support, he really didn't need to worry anymore.
Jiang Qiao closed her eyes to rest after the old man left, feeling refreshed. She had stayed up all night again, so it would be a lie to say she wasn't tired.
Jiang Qiao slept straight through until the next morning. Hou Diankui and Ning Hao were preparing to go back when she finally got out of bed.
However, this sleep wasn't in vain; at least now she can walk slowly on her own without anyone helping her.
"Hey, what are you two doing? Why are you in such a hurry to go back?"
Hou Diankui sighed, "I have to go back to complete my retirement procedures. I'll have to retire here later."
Ning Hao shrugged, then walked over with a smile and gave her a hug.
“I’m also reluctant to leave, but I have to go to work. Jiang Qiao, stay home and take good care of yourself. Wait for me to come back.”
Ning Hao's actions immediately made Jiang Qiao blush. She didn't know what had happened while she was sleeping, but wasn't this guy's behavior a bit too intimate?
No matter what, with so many people around, can't they at least be a little more discreet? They're not even married yet; it's really inappropriate for people to see them like this.
Jiang Qiao blushed deeply, but the others just smiled knowingly.
"Haozi, Lao Gu, don't forget what we agreed on. Hurry up and go back to get it done, don't delay."
Hou Diankui waved his hand knowingly, "Don't worry, can this be delayed? Alright, girl, take good care of yourself, I'll come to see you again in a few days. I'm leaving now, Haozi, you can give me a ride on your bike."
Ning Hao and the others left with their belongings, leaving Jiang Qiao alone, looking at the people in the courtyard with suspicion.
"Mom, what happened last night? Is there anything I don't know?"
Wen Jingwan smiled and patted her daughter's head with a loving expression. "Did you sleep well?"
Jiang Qiao nodded. "That's great, Mom. You still haven't told me what you talked about yesterday. Ning Hao's behavior today seems a bit off."
Jian Ling smiled and said, "Jiang Qiao, we have to congratulate you. Last night, the old men discussed it, and your mother agreed. Once you recover, we'll get you married to Ning Hao as soon as possible."
Jiang Qiao was shocked by this horrifying news. "What does this mean? Getting married? Mom, are you sure you're not mistaken? What time is it? Why would I get married? I haven't even gotten to know this person properly yet. Marriage is a serious matter, not a game. Does my dad know about this?"
Wen Jingwan chuckled, took her daughter's hand, and led the child over to wash up.
"You child, Ning Hao has waited so long and done so much for you, what more do you want? Don't you even look at how old Ning Hao is? If you keep waiting, when will the two of you be able to have a child?"
Your grandfather has already called your father, and he has no objections, saying it would be good for you two to get married sooner rather than later.
Jiang Qiao's mouth dropped open in surprise. "My dad said that too? Are you kidding me?"
Jian Ling brought water to Jiang Qiao. "That's right. Your grandfather called last night, and Master Hou also said that your marriage is a match made in heaven. As the saying goes, it's time for a man to marry when he's of age and for a woman to marry when she's of age. You're not young anymore, so you should get married. Don't let those trivial things delay your important life event."
Jiang Qiao was worried. "What do you two know? I've offended enemy agents. Do you think they'll let us go? If I don't bring them to justice, how am I supposed to live my life in peace?"
Jian Ling rolled her eyes at Jiang Qiao. "You're such a smart kid, how come you can't see the point? Back when we were fighting the Japanese, you weren't married. Didn't that just give the Japanese their wish?"
"We'll live our lives as usual, and we'll fight if we need to. We won't interfere with each other. They're just some enemy agents. Aunt Jian will help you later. I don't think it's a big deal. What era are we living in? Do you really think it's their world now?"
