Upon hearing that the old man had a share of the red packet, Anhao immediately took the red packet and bowed to Mother Zuo and the old man.”‘ Thank you, Mom. Thank you, Grandpa!”
Xu Yuan’s smile was so wide that she couldn’t keep her mouth shut. However, the old man turned his head away like a sulky old child and didn’t look at her.
Seeing Gu Anhao bow profusely with three big red packets in her hands, Zuo
Hancheng’s lips curled into a smile. He patted her shoulder and said, “”lt seems that Grandpa has already begun to accept you in his heart. It’s just that he’s unwilling to let go of his face.”
His voice was neither loud nor soft, but everyone here could hear him. The old man immediately turned around and retorted,” I didn’t accept her. Your parents took the red packet on their own accord. They even gave me a share. They said that they wanted Gu Anhao to be happy and that I would give her face. I didn’t have the time to reject them!”
“Oh, so Grandpa didn’t refuse.”Zuo Hancheng smiled meaningfully and looked at the old man.
The old man rolled his eyes at him with an ugly expression.”You’ve made such a big fuss over your birthday. The money you’ve collected is enough for you to go back and buy a house. Marrying into the Zuo family is really an extraordinary leap in the quality of life for a young lady like you who has no family background or background.”
“Grandpa.” Before everyone could speak up for her, she spoke up first. She looked at the taunting and mocking look in the old man’s eyes.”Grandpa, I wonder if you’ve heard of some comparisons between the rich and the poor.” “What parallel sentence?” The old man glanced at her indifferently.”
“Wearing a 300-yuan watch and a 3-million-yuan watch, the time is the same. The feeling of being drunk was the same after drinking a 30-yuan bottle of wine and a 3,000-yuan bottle of wine. Living in a 30-square-meter room or a 300-square-meter room, loneliness was the same. We all know that the true happiness in our hearts is something that the material world can never give.”
As Anhao spoke, she looked at the old man’s dissatisfied frown and continued, Since I’m married to Zuo Hancheng, I’m officially Mrs. Zuo. I’m very clear about this, and everyone is very clear about this. If I really pursue the materialistic things that you think of, Grandpa, I would be wearing all kinds of branded goods and jewelry to show off my wealth. But Grandpa, although these red packets are filled with money, they have more feelings and blessings than the numbers under our names. Isn’t this a kind of blessing?”
“Do I have to push the blessing out in a delicate manner and deliberately stand in front of you to pretend to be so thin and n.o.ble? Pretending to be fake in front of blessings, was this what grandfather liked?”
“Yes, Dad.” Xu Yuan turned around and said,” Anhao is already the daughter-in-law of the Zuo family. If she values those things, then she would have them long ago. Anhao is right. Red packets are a kind of blessing. It’s our wish to the children as elders. Don’t say such things to make Anhao feel bad.””
Anhao had already prepared to face the Zuo family before she left today. Her voice was much calmer than a few days ago. “I know. Grandpa, you’re reminding me and educating me not to forget my roots.”
Anhao’s reaction today made Grandpa speechless.
Initially, he had only said a few more words when he saw Gu Anhao being so smug and unhappy. In the end, it turned out that this old man was about to become the public enemy of the Zuo family again.
Seeing that Xu Yuan, Zuo Yue, and Zuo Hancheng were all protecting Gu Anhao, and that girl Gu Anhao had said it so beautifully, the old man sighed and raised his hand to his forehead.”Forget it. I can’t partic.i.p.ate in the world of young people. ”
‘ Grandpa, this isn’t the world of young people. You’re just too stubborn. You’ve always thought that Chengxin is good in everything. In fact, Anhao has already given her face. That day, Chengxin framed her, but Anhao didn’t really do anything to Chengxin. In the end, she didn’t pursue the matter anymore. This is already because of you, Grandpa.”
Zuo Yue suddenly interjected. Seeing the old man frown, she said directly,””But didn’t you hear what Anhao said just now? Also, can’t you see our att.i.tude? That Chengxin is a hypocritical woman who pretends all day long. You’re old, but you think Chengxin is obedient and sensible. How can there be such a perfect person in this world? I’m just pretending to be perfect in front of Grandpa. I think people like Sister-in-law are real. Grandpa, it’s time for you to take off your colored gla.s.ses.”
“I’m old and my eyes are blurry. I like to wear gla.s.ses. You dare to sit here and scold me?”The old man immediately looked impatient.
Zuo Yue immediately turned to look at Xu Yuan. ‘”‘ Mom, I really pity you. After marrying into our Zuo family, you’ve been living under the same roof with grandfather for so many years. Other people are all top-notch mothers-in-law, but you’ve met a top-notch father-in-law, yet you still respect and respect him for so many years. Your life is really not easy…”
Xu Yuan was inexplicably dragged into this matter by Zuo Yue. She immediately glared at Zuo Yue, angry that this girl actually spoke nonsense.
As expected, the old man was instantly furious.” Zuo Yue, you good-for-nothing girl. Say it again?!”‘
“Then, I was right. Grandma pa.s.sed away early. Grandpa, you haven’t had anyone to talk to for many years, so you’ve become so eccentric and irritable, right? If it really doesn’t work out, I’ll just find you an old companion. At least you have someone to talk to, so that you don’t have to acc.u.mulate so much anger and vent it on us all day…”
“Zuo Yue, the more you speak, the more ridiculous you are. It’s not wrong for you to protect Anhao, but Grandpa is Grandpa after all. No matter what Grandpa’s personality is, you can’t speak like this.”Xu Yuan reprimanded him sternly.
Only then did Zuo Yue stick out her tongue. Suddenly, she muttered in a very soft voice,’”‘ I’m just telling Grandpa how I feel now that I’ve grown up. At least I won’t hate Grandpa. But Grandpa, if you continue to be like this, you won’t have the chance to hold the baby in Anhao’s stomach after it’s born. They’ll definitely hide far away so that you won’t be able to see your great-grandson. Even if they do, your great-grandson will definitely hate you and won’t be close to you.”
After Zuo Yue finished speaking, Xu Yuan did not interrupt her immediately.
Sure enough, the old man’s originally ugly expression was slightly restrained, but he was still frowning. In the end, he raised his head hesitantly and looked in Anhao’s direction. After thinking for a while, he said coldly, “What ability do you have to make so many people in the Zuo family stand up for you?”
Anhao gently pulled her hand away from Zuo Hancheng’s hand. She knew that if she wanted the old master to accept her, she would have to face it personally without everyone’s protection.
She walked straight over and stopped three to four meters away from the old man..
