Chapter 446 Whatever you want, I will satisfy you in the future
At the gate of the general's mansion.
There were several branches of the Gu family who came with their families, and including the servants and maids, there were about 10 to 20 people.
Gu Zhifeng, the eldest son of the Gu family, came with his wife, three sons, and daughter-in-law. A servant followed behind with gifts. It looked like they were visiting.
"Brother, I came here today to ask for an explanation. What are the gifts you brought for?" Gu Wenqing, from the third branch of the Gu family, looked at him with some sarcasm.
"These were all prepared by the children. I didn't know about it." Gu Zhifeng denied it completely with just one sentence.
"Everyone knows Big Brother's temper. My nieces and nieces are all obedient. Without your words, how could they dare to do that?" Gu Wenqing said, "We all grew up in the same courtyard. Who doesn't know who? Is it fun to say that?"
"Third brother is right. If you want to give a gift, isn't this a little too little? I heard that nephew Gu Shuo gave Nian Yunjian to Miss Xiang before." Gu Xichao, the fourth wife of the Gu family, said and looked at Gu Mingqiu, the second wife of the Gu family next to him: "Isn't it, second brother?"
"I don't know." Gu Mingqiu's face didn't look very good.
"Don't know? Ha, don't you know how you can get such a granddaughter for free? I didn't see you taking it seriously when the old man told you that. You didn't expect that all the decisions would be handed over to Gu Shuo." Gu Xichao was sarcastic and angry.
Gu Mingqiu snorted heavily through his nose.
Gu Zhifeng looked at Gu Mingqiu with a slight twitch of his lips. The second brother seemed to be non-competitive, but in fact he was the most thoughtful one. Otherwise, why would the Xiang family's daughter recognize Gu Shuo as her godfather.
The old man had always liked Miss Xiang and had long said that he would leave his family property to whoever could make Miss Xiang recognize him as her great-grandfather. At first, they came to the general's mansion and also went to the Loushan Academy.
However, they were all stopped by the teachers of the academy. Later, they learned that the little boy was the direct disciple of Dean Chen and had a high status, so they did not dare to get close to him.
Gradually, he didn't take this matter to heart, but who knew that more than half a month ago, the old man suddenly mentioned that Gu Shuo should return to his clan.
After some investigation, it was discovered that Gu Shuo had contact with Miss Xiang, and seemed to have recognized Gu Shuo as her godfather. The old man was happy to have a great-granddaughter, so he mentioned that Gu Shuo had returned to the Hui ethnic group. It is not difficult to imagine that the old man wanted to hand over the Gu family property to him.
Gu Wenqing and his wife Sun looked at Gu Mingqiu with no good expression. He said that his honesty and simplicity were all fake. He was just a dumb mosquito that could kill people!
"I don't know what kind of love potion this wild kid gave to the old man, but the old man is so concerned about it." Gu Xichao glanced at the closed general's mansion.
Gu Zhifeng sighed upon hearing this: "Alas, if the Gu family can give birth to a girl, then it won't be the turn of girls from other families to enjoy the popularity."
"Grandpa, why don't you wait a little longer? Yuan'er will get married in two days, and maybe a girl will be born." Gu Xichao dreamed of having a girl every day.
As long as their fourth room gives birth to a girl, the Gu family will be easily taken over.
"Fourth brother, are you still thinking about the marriage between the Gu family and Prime Minister Gao's family? The old man may not even attend. Not to mention that you can't give birth to a girl, even if you can give birth to a girl, the old man will not look down on it." Gu Wenqing sneered.
"No matter how badly you look down on him, he's still better than other people's kids." Gu Xichao had never met Ye Qianning, but he had only heard that he was a fat country kid.
Gu Wenqing snorted without refutation. That's right, at the very least, it's better than a kid from another family.
It is difficult to raise a child from an outsider. The Gu family has worked hard in business for generations, and they cannot let the child fall into the hands of a child from an outsider, even if it is just a little bit.
Ye Qianning heard every word of the Gu family's argument. She had to go to the Gu family tomorrow.
Mr. Gu said those words because he didn't know about her relationship with Gu Shuo, and now he regrets it.
Sometimes fate is so wonderful that I accidentally became a great-grandfather.
The gate of the general's mansion opened and everyone in the Gu family rushed to the door.
"How is it? Did Miss Xiang agree to meet us?" Gu Zhifeng asked hurriedly.
Two servants stopped the crowd: "Don't push, my eldest daughter is here."
As the voice fell, Ye Qianning stepped out of the door.
There was a huge crowd of people at the door, all of them were direct descendants of the Gu family. It seemed that the Gu family was indeed prosperous, as they were all men, and the women were all daughters-in-law and granddaughters-in-law of the Gu family.
The Gu family members were all stunned when they saw Ye Qianning. Many of them saw him for the first time. They only knew that he was fat, but they didn’t expect that he was so afraid of being fat.
"I wonder what the Gu family's sudden visit is about?" Ye Qianning's voice was childish but loud.
The childish voice brought everyone back to their senses. Facing a chubby white baby, they didn't know how to respond for a moment. The baby looked very small. If they did something, would they be mistaken for kidnapping a child?
"Everyone in the Gu family should know that my father is not in Kyoto City, and the mansion does not receive guests. If you have nothing to do, please go back." Ye Qianning glanced around and said again.
Gu Zhifeng coughed lightly and nudged Madam Li next to him with his elbow.
"Haha, Miss Xiang, it's strange to call someone an outsider. Since you acknowledge the old man of the Gu family as your great-grandfather, we are all family now." Li smiled kindly. After speaking, she took the mahogany box from the maid and walked forward: "Miss Xiang, this is a gift from grandma."
"Thank you, grandma."
As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person. Ye Qianning did not refuse. She stretched out her little hand to take it and handed it to Qian Fanji behind her.
Qian Fanji took it naturally and held it in his hand.
Only then did everyone in the Gu family notice Qian Fanji, who was dressed in white and looked like an immortal. They were quite surprised. Why was Minister Qian in the general's mansion?
They only heard that the Zhan family has been taken care of in the general's mansion recently, so what's going on with Minister Qian?
Li smiled and looked at the chubby white baby in front of her, who looked just like the baby held by the goddess of fertility. She was so happy that she couldn't help but reach out to touch her head.
"Mrs. Gu, the child is shy." Qian Fanji said.
Li had just extended her hand, but upon hearing this, she retracted her stiff smile and said, "Miss Xiang, you are blessed at first sight."
"Thank you for your good wishes, grandma." Ye Qianning thought Li was a kind person.
Li was overjoyed when she was called.
Gu Wenqing had just mocked Boss Gu for bringing gifts, but now seeing this scene, he turned around and glared at Sun, saying that she hadn't even prepared any gifts and couldn't get a word in.
Sun felt very aggrieved. She had clearly said that her elder brother and sister-in-law had brought gifts, but it was you who looked down upon them.
The moment Gu Mingqiu saw Ye Qianning, his eyes lit up. The baby looked very familiar no matter how he looked at it. A child who could be adopted as a goddaughter by Shuo'er must be good.
Seeing that the time was almost right, Gu Zhifeng walked over to Li and looked at the little kid. "Little kid, you've been bored in the mansion for half a month, right? Grandpa has several interesting shops in Kyoto City. Do you want Grandpa to take you to have a look?"
"I'm lazy and don't like to move around."
"It's okay, let your uncle carry him." Gu Zhifeng turned around and greeted his second son Gu Chi.
Gu Chi walked over and nodded to Qian Fanji as a greeting. Then he lowered his eyes and stared at Ye Qianning with a faint smile on his face: "Little girl, where do you want to go?"
