Chapter 101: Clearing up past
grudges Seeing Father Sheng staring at his granddaughter’s back in a trance, Old Man Gu reminded him.
"Uncle Gu, please take my car and go with us. I thought Jiaojiao would take my car, but I didn't expect that Shuoci would walk so fast!"
"Haha... Shuo Ci really cares about Jiao Jiao. I am too old to ride in your car."
"Then I'll go over with you and take a look. You seem much more energetic in this week. Are you okay?"
"Jiaojiao said I'm not sick, just malnourished. She gave us chicken soup every day. Look, I can walk without even panting now."
Old Master Gu was showing off happily, walking with a breeze. He had just been standing for a while and was no longer out of breath.
Father Sheng pushed the bicycle and walked side by side with Old Man Gu. He never mentioned how Gu Jinghua fainted.
He was too embarrassed to say it, so Grandpa Gu didn't ask. He could imagine that his eldest grandson must have heard something before he fainted.
The two of them walked slowly and chatted about Gu Jiaojiao in a very harmonious manner.
Gu Jiaojiao and Su Shuoci soon reached the fork in the road and saw Gu Jinghua still lying on the ground.
Uncle Geng walked back and forth, rubbing his hands, and passers-by on the road took a detour.
"Uncle Geng, you are worried." Gu Jiaojiao jumped off the wheelchair.
"Jiaojiao, look quickly, Jinghua has fainted because of other people's gossip." Geng Ruixian immediately complained.
Gu Jiaojiao squatted down to feel Gu Jinghua's pulse. It was the qi and blood attacking his heart that caused him to faint. She gave Gu Jinghua a few injections first.
After a moment, Gu Jinghua woke up, and what he saw was Jiaojiao's extremely cold face.
He thought Jiaojiao was worried about him and that was why she had a cold face: "Jiaojiao~Brother is fine, don't worry."
"Brother Gu, you're overthinking. I'm not worried about you. I'm just angry because the patient is disobedient."
Gu Jiaojiao's voice, which was cold to the bone, was like hail hitting Gu Jinghua's heart.
Gu Jinghua: ...
Could it be that Jiaojiao thought that she had fainted because of the negative news about Yueliang?
Su Shuoci stepped forward and helped his brother-in-law up. "Brother Gu, do you want to rest on this bench for a while, or walk home slowly?"
He firmly supports his wife. When his wife calls Gu Jinghua "Big Brother", he calls her "Big Brother". When his wife calls him "Big Brother Gu", he immediately changes his words and calls her "Big Brother Gu".
"Uncle Geng, you should sit down and rest for a while. I'm sorry for worrying you just now."
Gu Jiaojiao spoke to Geng Ruixian in a slightly softer voice.
"Jiaojiao, I'm not feeling unwell anywhere. Do you want your brother to rest for a while before leaving?"
Geng Ruixian looked at Gu Jinghua deeply and said that he had watched his nephew grow up.
He was not a stupid person. Why would he worry about that shameless adopted sister instead of such a good sister? Gu Jiaojiao could see that Geng Rui wanted to remind Gu Jinghua first, but no one could wake up a person who was pretending to be asleep.
She did have some concern and sympathy for this blood brother, but that was all because of their blood relationship.
But for Sheng Yueliang, he ruined his body again and again.
This made Gu Jiaojiao extremely contemptuous and tired, and at the same time, the relationship between the siblings, which was not close to begin with, became even more strained.
When people get along with each other, the most frightening thing is that you care a lot, but the other party relies on your love, spends it recklessly, and does not cherish it at all.
"Jiaojiao, you must be tired. Let me give you a massage." Su Shuoci pulled his wife to sit on his wheelchair and massaged her arms.
He didn't even glance at Gu Jinghua. Humph! If you make my wife unhappy, you can just fend for yourself.
Seeing that everyone was disappointed in him, Gu Jinghua sat on the bench, organized his words and spoke.
"Jiaojiao, I didn't faint because of Sheng Yueliang's story, but because I heard people say that children who grew up on farms are uneducated.
I fainted from anger. We have been feeding pigs on the farm for many years, but we also insist on learning.
When those people sent us, the Gu family, to the farm, they specifically emphasized to the farm management that we must be allowed to train well at the grassroots level.
Only by enduring the greatest hardship and eating the bitterest food can one recall the bitter past and cherish the sweetness of life, and transform one’s corrupted thoughts.
We have to work and study every day, how can we be considered uneducated? "
Seeing Gu Jinghua's serious explanation with clear eyes, Gu Jiaojiao also spoke in a gentle voice.
"As long as you don't harm your body, it's understandable to worry about Sheng Yueliang."
"Jiaojiao, big brother really doesn't worry about him anymore. He let it go when he left the house today!"
Su Shuoci glanced at Gu Jinghua. He believed what he said. When they walked out the door, he found that Gu Jinghua seemed to be in a more relaxed mood.
"Jiaojiao, what Brother Gu said is true." He also hopes that his wife and her brother can resolve their past grudges.
"Then you should take good care of your health from now on." Gu Jiaojiao said dryly.
She was already past the age of competing for favor from others, and she really didn't take this matter to heart.
She was just unhappy because Gu Jinghua was worried about Sheng Yueliang, his health didn't get better, and he wasted a lot of medicine.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
I even wondered if I should just stop taking his medication.
"Jinghua, you are not feeling unwell, are you?" Old Master Gu saw his grandson sitting on the stool in good health.
"Grandpa, I'm sorry to have worried you. It's because your grandson is not in good health and fainted from anger."
Mr. Sheng who came with us: …
I said to myself: Don’t tell anyone that it was my daughter’s business that made you faint from anger. I still have my old face to save.
"The fact that Jinghua woke up so quickly proves that it's nothing serious. Jiaojiao is hungry during class, let's go home and eat."
"Well, let's go home." Gu Jinghua completely let go of his expectations, and his steps became much more relaxed.
Most people in the compound knew about it, and a group of gossipers made Su Shuoci's brother-in-law so angry that he didn't know whether he was alive or dead.
So, when pedestrians saw the man in the wheelchair, they would give way and avoid them.
"Grandpa, these people avoid me like I'm the plague. Do I look ugly like this?"
Gu Jinghua couldn't help but ask, otherwise, he would think too much and affect his health, making his sister dislike him.
Mr. Gu: ...
He didn't know why this happened! "Brother, you think too much, these people are not avoiding you.
Generally speaking, if everyone avoids you, it’s either because you are too good or because you have offended everyone.”
Gu Jiaojiao teased Gu Jinghua with a smile, saying that her elder brother just liked to daydream.
“Haha… Jinghua, you take yourself too seriously. These people are hiding from Shuoci and Jiaojiao.”
Old Man Gu reacted and immediately joined his granddaughter in making fun of his eldest grandson.
Geng Ruixian also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He thought the passers-by were avoiding him because of his old appearance!
He couldn't help but straighten his back. Although he walked without any wind, he was no longer hunched over as before.
He needs to have a positive attitude, eat well, and not let his relatives fail to recognize him when they see him.
Father Sheng felt relieved when he saw everyone walking forward talking and laughing. No one mentioned his disappointing daughter.
"General Sheng, would you like to come to our house for dinner?" Gu Jiaojiao asked hesitantly as they were approaching the intersection where they would part ways.
