Chapter 278 My Darling Doesn't Need to Kneel
Helian Jiao opened her rosy little mouth, took a bite with a "woof," and then smiled contentedly, curving her lips into a pair of pretty little crescent moons.
It's so delicious!
The two little ones shared a single glutinous rice ball, taking turns eating it.
After finishing the glutinous rice balls and cleaning up the dishes, the family took paper money and ingots to the ancestral graves on the back hillside to pay respects to their ancestors.
Gu Tingyun naturally led Helian Jiao through the crowd, and the Chen family members didn't notice anything amiss.
The much-grown Big White followed closely behind the two, head held high and chest out, its steps brisk, already showing the imposing presence of a wolf king.
As they walked along the road, the other people from the commune saw them and teased them with a smile, "Oh! Tingyun is going to the graves too?"
Now everyone in the commune knows that Director Gu's son spends all his time playing with Old Chen's precious child; they're closer than siblings.
Gu Tingyun is practically half a son to the Chen family, and Guaibao is half a daughter to the Gu family.
Upon hearing this, Ma Xiulian smiled broadly and said, "Tingyun is practically my grandson now. He's so young yet already knows how to read and write, and he's so well-behaved and sensible. The ancestors of the Chen family will definitely love him!"
She genuinely liked Tingyun; he was not only polite and well-mannered, but he also treated her precious baby better than her own brothers.
Gu Tingyun tacitly agreed with Ma Xiulian's words, because he also respected the little hamster's close elders as if they were his own.
Zhou Zhaodi had long regarded him as the future son-in-law of the Chen family!
We're just waiting for our precious baby to marry into the Gu family so she can take good care of her family members.
Li Chunhua felt uneasy listening to this. Over the past six months, she had clearly seen that her bewitched mother-in-law treated a stranger better than her own grandson.
Her little Bao and Jinbao are so pitiful!
As we walked up the mountain, we saw other people from the commune leading the way in worship, their faces shrouded in incense smoke.
When visiting the graves, the Chen family members lined up according to their seniority.
Chen Dazhu and Ma Xiulian led the way, with their sons in a row, their grandsons in a line, and their granddaughters and daughters-in-law standing at the back, each holding incense sticks and kneeling to pay their respects.
Only Helian Jiao and Gu Tingyun stood out from the crowd, to the side.
The rest of the Chen family had long been used to it; since their parents hadn't said anything, there was no point in them worrying.
Liu Lanzhi, who had just entered, noticed that she hadn't moved and was secretly surprised. She tugged at her sleeve and reminded her, "My dear, hurry up and kneel down to pay your respects and kowtow to the ancestors. The ancestors will bless you so that everything goes smoothly this year."
Tingyun is an outsider after all, so there's no need for her to kowtow and kneel before the Chen family's ancestors.
But Guai Bao is a member of the Chen family. No matter how much he is favored, he cannot disrespect his ancestors!
"They can't afford it."
Helian Jiao puffed out her small chest, her face full of arrogance and pride.
She is a proud and powerful dragon; she will only die standing, not live kneeling!
For dragons, kneeling signifies submission; the little princess has never even knelt before her father or mother.
Moreover, the Golden Dragon Clan is the darling of the heavens and earth, and has no need for the protection of any living beings.
"Fifth brother's wife, my darling doesn't need to kneel." Ma Xiulian, who was in front, heard the commotion and turned around to call out.
Our little darling is a fairy from heaven. To be able to descend to earth and be born into the Chen family, we don't know how much good karma her ancestors accumulated.
If this fairy were to actually kneel before the Chen family's ancestors, their ancestral graves would probably be struck by lightning!
