The old man laughed and scolded, "So what? If it's for my granddaughter-in-law, it's for my great-grandson. Do you have a problem with that?"
If you have any complaints, keep them to yourself.
"Just looking at you, you bastard, makes me angry. My little great-grandson is much more pleasing to the eye."
"Old man, you still remember where you came from when you drink water! Without me, where would your great-grandson come from?" Gu Yanbai smirked smugly.
The old man understood what he meant: "What are you so smug about!"
In Lao Tzu's eyes, that's all you're good for.
You've caused me so much worry since you were a kid.
I just hope this kid will be more like your wife, and not like you, you jerk, you're such a pain in the neck!"
Gu Yanbai said nonchalantly, "You don't need to worry about that. My kid will definitely be like me!"
The old man suddenly laughed, “They say you only know the kindness of your parents when you raise children!”
"It's good that you're like this, so you can experience how angry I was back then."
Good heavens, he's lived to such an old age and has never seen such a mischievous kid.
They're either chasing someone's chicken today or chasing someone's dog tomorrow.
Or he'd hit someone's child; he was never quiet for a single day.
In those years, he often put on a smiling face for people, until his face became stiff from smiling.
Of course, he didn't hold back when he was beaten up.
But this guy never learns his lesson. If you beat him up, he'll behave for a while.
But as soon as you turn around, everything remains the same.
So in those years, the Gu family was always in chaos.
Gu Yanbai touched his nose somewhat awkwardly, still having vague memories of the misdeeds he had committed as a child.
"Grandpa, this is so old news, why are you bringing it up again?"
"Now you realize how shameful you are?" The old man chuckled and gave him a disapproving look.
Gu Yanbai quickly changed the subject, "By the way, where's my brother? I just got home and I haven't seen him yet!"
"What could possibly be wrong with him?"
He's been wasting his days on those few plots of land. Tomorrow I'll just have him move his bed to the fields.
In this way, he could stay with his beloved crops and land, day and night.
The old man's mood soured whenever Gu Yansong was mentioned.
He's a strong man in his thirties, and all he does all day is clean the floor; he doesn't think about anything else.
He cleared the land so thoroughly that not a single weed remained.
Their crops used to be the worst in the village, but now that Gu Yansong is back, the situation has reversed.
However, Old Master Gu did not feel any sense of triumph.
What's the use of cultivating the land perfectly?
He's a bachelor; he only needs to eat his fill, so the rest of the family isn't hungry.
If you harvest a lot of grain but don't have a wife, children, or elderly parents to support, what's the point of all that hard work?
Sensing something was off about his tone, Gu Yanbai tentatively asked, "What did my brother do to offend you? Did you two... have a fight?"
"I'd rather he argued with me."
But with his temperament, he's so quiet you can't get a word out of him. How could we possibly have a proper argument with him?
You two were born to the same parents, so how come your personalities are so different?
The old man gets a little irritated whenever Gu Yansong is mentioned.
Every time I talk to him, he's like a silent gourd.
If you're really angry, you can yell at him, and he'll just lower his head and let you scold him.
Every time the old man tried to talk to him about serious matters, it was like punching cotton – there was no way to get a grip.
He got angrier the more he thought about it, so he simply waved his hand at him.
"Forget it, just go! These things are hard to explain to you."
He has already promised not to interfere in Gu Yansong's affairs, so let him handle those things on his own from now on!
He abandoned the project!
He should just continue herding his sheep, listening to his little tunes, and minding his own business; that way, he can live a few more years.
He also wants to see his grandson born and watch him grow up.
If you're lucky, you might even get to see him (or her) get married and start a family!
Thinking about it that way made him feel much more at ease.
Sure enough, as soon as Gu Yanbai came down the mountain, he saw that familiar figure in his own field.
He was bending over, skillfully weeding in the field!
"Brother, why don't you ever take a break?"
"Hey, I was just idling around at home anyway, so I thought I'd come and take a stroll in the fields!" Gu Yansong picked up the towel around his neck and wiped the sweat from his face.
"By the way, what brings you here?"
"Oh, I'm going up the mountain to talk to Grandpa about something!"
"Well, since you have some free time, why don't you go dig some sweet potatoes in the field? Your wife told Yanliu the other day that she wanted to eat sweet potatoes."
It's really not good to keep bothering him.
Besides, how could he not satisfy her desire for food? "Okay, I'll come to the field to dig it up later."
He remembered the old man's expression, so he asked, "Brother, did you have a fight with Grandpa?"
Gu Yansong was stunned for a moment, "No...right?"
When we're at home, it's always the old man who talks, and he listens to him the whole time without ever arguing back. I don't think that counts as arguing, right?
"Why?" The old man was reasonable, and Gu Yansong was also gentle; in any case, he was better than him.
He couldn't understand why the two of them couldn't get along.
Gu Yansong felt rather uncomfortable when asked about this.
But he couldn't find anyone to talk to about it, so when the man asked, he told him about how he had begged his grandfather to propose marriage to Taozi's family.
Gu Yanbai suddenly realized, "You two are arguing over this?"
Gu Yansong nodded.
He finally managed to persuade his grandfather to propose marriage to the Yang family, but they refused outright.
Grandpa was a little unhappy.
"So now you're with Sister Peach..."
