"Aaaaah...you pervert..."
Gu Xilan, feeling ashamed and indignant, started chasing Jiang Jinhua all over the yard again.
Jiang Jinhua ran and dodged, their voices echoing throughout the courtyard.
Gu Xilan was unaware that Jiang Junrong and Zhou Wenjing had a tacit understanding when beating their son: they would not hit his face or hands. If his hands were injured, it meant that he had reached out to block the blows and gotten hurt.
However, perhaps because of the thick winter clothes, it felt more painful when I was hit, but the blows didn't actually hit the flesh.
This time, everyone in the living room clearly heard Gu Xilan's words, but they all tacitly pretended not to hear them.
Gu Dashan subconsciously tried to get up and leave, but Jiang Junrong immediately grabbed him.
"The children are grown up now, let them handle their own affairs. Let's discuss their engagement first."
Upon hearing this, Gu Dashan gave Jiang Junrong a light snort, and finally put his raised foot back down, but still craned his neck to look outside.
After seeing that his daughter hadn't suffered any loss, he turned his attention to the crowd.
Yang Dongmei took his hand and comforted him, saying, "Our daughter is growing up and will eventually get married. It's just an engagement now, so we can let her stay at home for a few more years before getting married."
"If, in a few years, that guy really can't win my daughter's heart, then we'll help her break off the engagement!"
...
Gu Xiliang led Xie Hongfu, Gu Mingzhen, Gu Mingzhu and Gu Mingyuan in and saw the two chasing each other in the courtyard.
"Andy Lau, what have you done to upset my little sister this time?"
Gu Xiliang had just returned from visiting his maternal grandmother's house with his parents a few days ago, and the first thing he did was come to find Jiang Jinhua. When they passed by the Gu family's old house, the little ones knew he was coming and followed him.
Unexpectedly, they could hear Jiang Jinhua and Gu Xilan playing around from afar.
Jiang Jinhua was in a difficult situation at this moment.
"Liangzi, save me! Your sister is going to kill me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, and was about to run behind Gu Xiliang to hide, Zhao Guoan, who was watching the show from the side, went over and hooked his arm around Gu Xiliang's shoulder, pulling him to the corner to watch the show together.
"Ignore them, or your sister will beat you up too!"
As soon as Gu Mingzhen, Gu Mingzhu, and Xiao Fangfang came in, they went straight over to play with Xiao Hei.
Only Xie Hongfu stared blankly at the two people playing around in the courtyard.
The little guy was so engrossed in watching that he didn't even blink.
Jiang Jinhua ran over, and since Gu Xiliang wasn't there to shield him from Gu Xilan, he shamelessly hid behind the little guy.
Using the little guy as a shield.
"Jiang Jinhua, come out here! What kind of man are you, using a child as a shield?" Gu Xilan said angrily.
"I'm not a man, I'm still a boy. I only become a man after I get married!"
Jiang Jinhua retorted confidently.
Gu Xilan: "..."
Zhao Guoan: "..."
Gu Xiliang: "..."
The people in the hall: "..."
Before Gu Xilan could lash out again, Xie Hongfu, who was standing between the two, spoke up.
"Big brother, hitting is a sign of pain, scolding is a sign of love."
Just let your older sister hit you a few times, she'll calm down once she's calmed down.
My dad said it's not shameful to get beaten by your wife!
When Xie Hongfu saw the two of them playing around, he thought of his own parents.
His father would often deliberately provoke his mother, and the two of them would often fight and frolic around the yard like this.
Every time, once his mother calmed down, his father would simply carry her back to her room...
Every time Grandpa saw this, he would shake his head and take him out to play.
His parents' relationship always got better after each fight.
He really misses that time; it's a pity he'll never see it again.
His grandfather also lied to him, saying that his parents had gone to serve the people and would not be back for a very long time.
But he knew that after those people took his parents away that day, his grandfather often cried secretly.
Those people wanted to take him away with them, so Grandpa simply wrote a letter severing ties with them.
Just last year, Grandpa received a letter. He held the letter and cried his heart out, looking much older all of a sudden.
Grandpa didn't show him the contents of the letter.
But he still secretly watched it.
His parents are gone forever.
He really misses them.
Thinking of this, tears welled up in his eyes.
This terrified Gu Xilan, who was standing in front of him.
"Hongfu, Hongfu, what's wrong? Don't cry, did he hurt you? I'll help you hit him!"
Gu Xilan hugged the little one and slapped Jiang Jinhua.
Jiang Jinhua looked at Xie Hongfu, who was crying uncontrollably, somewhat bewildered. He hadn't grabbed him hard; he had only tugged at his clothes.
So, she cried?
He was at a loss, unsure of what to do.
Gu Xilan coaxed Xie Hongfu while glaring at Jiang Jinhua.
At that moment, Jiang Jinhua felt as if she had done something utterly heinous.
Pearl and the others heard the commotion and ran over.
Little Fangfang: "Uncle, how can you bully a child?"
Gu Mingzhen: "Uncle Hua, you should apologize to Hongfu right away."
Gu Mingzhu: "Yes, apologize! The teacher said that if you do something wrong, you should apologize!"
Even Xiao Hei barked at him twice, as if urging him to apologize quickly.
Jiang Jinhua raised his hands: "Okay, okay, Xiao Hongfu, Uncle was wrong, please don't cry, okay?"
At this moment, Zhao Guoan and Gu Xiliang walked over arm in arm: "Hua Zai, I never thought you were like this, Hua Zai! You've really grown up, bullying a child!"
At this point, Jiang Jinhua was truly at a loss for words.
