Chapter 159: Grandparents and Grandchildren Confronted
Brother Gu patted Gu Cheng on the back and sighed, "You haven't been home these years, so you don't know. This kind of situation has happened countless times."
"But before, everyone was clearly..."
"Everyone is afraid of the old man, and they all follow his lead, right?"
Gu Cheng nodded.
"It was like that before. Mom, Dad, my second brother, his wife, and even Grandma—no one dared to say anything if Grandpa coughed. But after you were rescued and moved out, everyone's only been polite to Grandpa. Your second sister-in-law even insisted that Grandpa apologize to you and ask for your forgiveness."
After saying this, Brother Gu turned to look at Qi Mo and said gently, "If grandpa says something too harsh later, don't be upset. The rest of us support you. As long as you and my younger brother are fine, nothing else matters."
Qi Mo nodded obediently.
Gu Cheng's eyes were red.
Whether in his previous life or this life, this was the first time he knew that his family actually rebelled against his grandfather for him.
You know, grandpa always had the final say in this family.
My parents both respect my grandfather very much, and my grandmother's heart and eyes are full of my grandfather.
My second sister-in-law is such an independent and temperamental person, but she always keeps her head down and doesn't get angry at all when being scolded by my grandfather.
The same goes for my second brother, who has always been fearless.
He didn't expect that everyone would rebel against his grandfather because of him.
"Thank you."
Brother Gu and his wife smiled and rubbed Gu Cheng's head. "What nonsense are you talking about? We are a family. And if Grandpa knew that you were moved to tears because of him being besieged, I'm afraid he would be even angrier~"
The eldest sister-in-law burst out laughing: "It's okay, at most he'll just have to stay in my hospital for a while longer. It just so happens that the old man hasn't taken my pulse for a long time, so I'll take this opportunity to nurse him back to health. He's really afraid of taking Chinese medicine."
Gu Cheng laughed out loud.
Everyone in the family expressed their guilt and infinite love for themselves in their own way.
In his previous life, he failed to pursue Qi Mo and had no excuse to go home, but he was completely unaware of these things!
Before the four of them finished speaking, a powerful voice echoed from the living room.
"You four are standing in the corner saying bad things about me! Get out of here!"
The old man was so angry that his scalp was numb. They were becoming more and more lawless!
He doesn't want to lose face!
Seeing this, the eldest brother was the first to walk out and instantly stopped smiling.
"Grandpa and grandma, my younger brother and the others still have work to do, so we can talk about other things later."
The eldest sister-in-law was the same. She still stood firmly in front of the two of them, not backing off and said, "Grandpa and grandma."
Gu Cheng looked at the old woman who had loved him so much and had tortured him with all kinds of means. He didn't know how to speak. He kept a cold face and said nothing. After a while, he called out, "Grandma."
The old lady on the sofa stood up immediately and looked at her little grandson with loving care, afraid that she would miss even a glance.
After seeing enough, she looked at Qi Mo beside her, her eyes full of gratitude, and she pulled Qi Mo and cried: "Good boy, good boy, follow Xiao Cheng and call me grandma, this child is really upright and good-looking."
The second sister-in-law came closer and laughed, "Grandma is so partial. She said I was the prettiest before, but now all she can think about is her new grandson. I'm jealous!"
Gu Chengze whispered to Qi Mo, "Grandma liked good-looking people when she was young. Back then... it was because... I was good-looking that I was able to pursue Grandma."
Qi Mo was amazed. Having lived with his grandfather since he was a child, he knew exactly how to make the old man happy.
"Hello, grandma. I'm Qi Mo. You can call me Xiao Mo. Please stop standing and take a rest. Gu Cheng and I plan to stay home for a few more days to ensure you can see us every day."
Qi Mo wiped the tears from the old woman's face and said only what she wanted to hear.
as predicted.
When grandma heard that the two would stay for a while longer, she was extremely happy.
Behind him, Mr. and Mrs. Gu had smiles in their eyes and were more and more satisfied with Qi Mo.
The whole living room was filled with laughter.
The only former head of the family was completely ignored by everyone.
A trace of pain flashed across the patriarch's eyes. He used both hands to bang his crutch on the ground, which attracted the attention of others.
Suddenly, everyone fell silent, and grandma almost burst into a curse. If Qi Mo hadn't been standing next to her and she didn't want to scare the child, she would have divorced the old man no matter what!
Gu Cheng turned his head away without saying a word.
Qi Mo looked at the old man, somewhat puzzled.
But as a first-time visitor, he still greeted the old man obediently.
"Hello, Grandpa Gu, I'm Qi Mo."
Old Master Gu snorted coldly and turned the cane in his hand. Gu Cheng immediately pulled Qi Mo tightly and blocked him.
The old man instantly flew into a rage. His little grandson was really on guard against him to the core!
"what do you mean!"
Gu Cheng said bluntly, "I admit you beat me. But Mo Mo, don't even think about touching him!"
"You little brat! How dare you talk to me like that!!"
"Yes, and I dare to say so and do so." Gu Cheng narrowed his eyes and said sharply: "You raised me. You know my temper and abilities best! Don't force me."
My eldest brother was raised by my parents, my second brother was raised by my grandmother, and I have been closest to my grandfather since I was a child, and I am most like him in my bones.
That's why I was so desperate at the time.
He didn't understand why his grandfather, who had always loved him, treated him like this when he just liked someone.
After hearing this, the old man's face turned pale.
Gu Cheng's face also turned pale.
The others were anxious, but no one dared to speak rashly.
It was the first time that Qi Mo saw Gu Cheng so out of control, so he took the initiative to help him calm down and patted his back gently.
From the corner of my eye I saw the old man's pale hand holding the cane.
So he said, "It's okay. I don't think that's what Grandpa Gu meant, right? Grandpa Gu."
Gu Cheng calmed down a bit and held Qi Mo's hand tightly, so tightly that it hurt Qi Mo, but he did not pull away. Instead, he held it back even harder.
Grandpa Gu gritted his teeth, and finally snorted reluctantly, turned his head and walked towards a room, turned his back to Qi Mo and said, "Follow me."
Seeing this, the others frowned, their faces full of disapproval.
Fu Shuya immediately said, "Sorry, Mr. Gu, we have an interview with the Central Television Station, and it's almost time. We can't be late."
Old Master Gu pounded his cane again. "It's not too late! It's really too late. I'll call their director! Come in with me!"
After saying that, the old man walked into the room quickly and slammed the door shut.
Qi Mo raised his foot and tried to follow, but Gu Cheng held him tightly and shook his head slightly, saying, "Don't go."
