Chapter 2655

Ye Pu looked at his daughter, so angry his eyebrows twitched, and in the end he could only weakly wave his hand: "Go on, go on, don't come again whether you have business or not."

"Old man, it's just taking a little something from you, is it that serious?" Ye Zhen laughed: "Besides, I'm doing this for your grandson's sake. If you don't give Zhou Andong a gift, what right do they have to help you discipline your grandson?"

Ye Pu sighed deeply once again; toward his little daughter, no matter how angry he was, he truly couldn't muster any temper.

"Ask Zhou Andong if it's enough; if not, come get it next month."

"Good!" Ye Zhen nodded satisfactorily: "Then I'll leave, and come get it next month."

Ye Pu glared: "You didn't even ask Zhou Andong if he wanted it, and you just came to take it?"

"That's what you said." Ye Zhen found a bag, packed the tea and tobacco inside, then walked to the sofa, picked up his small bag, and slung it over his shoulder: "Old man, bye-bye."

Ye Pu took several deep breaths in a row before calming his violently pounding heart: "I really don't know what karma I created in my past life; sooner or later they'll anger me to death."

At the same time, also in Xishan, not far from the Ye family's residence, stood another three-story small building, equally heavily guarded. But unlike the Ye family, at this moment a large crowd of people stood in the small courtyard—old and young, male and female.

When a Mercedes-Benz slowly drove into the courtyard, the group already waiting there quickly stepped forward to greet it. After the car came to a stop, a young man rushed to open the door, then impatiently said:

"Sister, brother-in-law. Hurry up and let me see the little feather."

This young man was exactly Mo Dong, son of Gu Mingyue, Qianqiu's aunt. He reached out to grab the little feather in Qianqiu's arms, but before he could, his mother grabbed his collar and pulled him aside.

"Get lost, you annoying thing."

Gu Mingyue smiled and reached out her hand: "Hurry up and give me the child."

Qianqiu placed the child in her arms into the outstretched arms of her aunt, softly saying: "Asleep."

Gu Mingyue carefully held the child in her arms, looking at the little figure wrapped in the bundle, her eyes full of smiles: "Such a little guy, all he does is eat and sleep—quite normal."

"Hurry up and let me see."

A woman walked over from the crowd—none other than Qianqiu's maternal grandmother, Shen Muqing. Though actually over seventy, with a full head of white hair, she had only a few wrinkles at the corners of her eyes; her skin looked radiant, making her appear about fifty.

If you didn't know her, you'd never believe she was over seventy. Not only did she look young, but she also carried an innate, graceful demeanor, not something cultivated later.

Shen Muqing reached out and took the little feather from Gu Mingyue's arms, smiling: "Oh my, look at my great-granddaughter—this little face is pure and fair. Especially this nose and these eyes, they take after our Gu family."

Zhou Andong got out of the car, carried Su Su out from inside, then looked at Shen Muqing, this old lady, and finally understood where the Gu family's genes came from. Just looking at her demeanor, she must come from a scholarly lineage.

"Grandma!" Qianqiu walked over, grabbed Shen Muqing's collar, and coquettishly said: "I've been dying to see you—why won't you even glance at me?"

Shen Muqing gave her a disdainful glance: "Go on, go on, don't bother me while I'm chatting with my great-granddaughter."

"Grandma!" Qianqiu laughed: "You still have another great-granddaughter."

"Oh dear!" Shen Muqing quickly handed the little feather to Gu Mingyue beside her, then turned to look at Zhou Andong holding Su Su in his arms: "This is Su Su, right?"

"Grandma!" Zhou Andong called out, then said to Su Su: "Su Su, call her great-grandma."

"Great-grandma!" Su Su called out happily, but her big eyes showed confusion: How did great-grandma change like this?

"Su Su, let great-grandma hold you" Shen Muqing took Su Su into her arms and kissed her little cheek: "So good."

"Mom!" Jia Chaoyun said: "Don't stand outside—come inside if you have something to say."

"Yes yes yes!" Shen Muqing apologetically said to Zhou Andong: "Andong, you've come—I'm so happy I forgot my manners; please don't blame me."

Zhou Andong quickly said: "Uncle, you're an elder—don't be so polite, or else Qiuqiu will give me hell when we get home."

"She dares?" Shen Muqing glared at Qianqiu: "If she bullies you, just tell me—I'll show her."

"Grandma!" Qianqiu said discontentedly: "I'm your own granddaughter."

"So what if you're my granddaughter?" Shen Muqing snorted: "You dare bully my son-in-law—that's not allowed."

"Alright, alright!" Jia Chaoyun said: "It's too hot outside—hurry inside to talk."

Shen Muqing put Su Su on the ground, then took her little hand: "Come on, great-grandma bought you lots of good things to eat."

Gu Bing stood alone there, watching a large crowd surround Zhou Andong and Qianqiu as they entered the door, yet no one paid him any attention—not even a glance.

A large group entered the door; Gu Man Laoyezi had long been waiting impatiently. Seeing everyone come in, he immediately stood up from the sofa, scanned the crowd, and spotted Zhou Andong.

"Andong!" Gu Man Laoyezi warmly called out: "Come sit!"

Zhou Andong quickly walked over: "Grandpa!"

Gu Man Laoyezi sized up Zhou Andong, nodded with satisfaction: "Young man, full of energy—looks much handsomer than on TV, and matches my Autumn Autumn perfectly. Not bad, not bad!"

Gu Man Laoyezi patted Zhou Andong's shoulder: "Sit!"

Zhou Andong sat down beside Gu Man Laoyezi; on the other side were his uncles Gu Mingxiang, Gu Mingxin, and Gu Ming'an.

"Andong, have you met all these uncles, aunts, older brothers, sisters-in-law, older sisters, and brothers-in-law yet?"

"We have met." A man in military uniform, carrying flowers, smiled and said: "Hello, Andong—I'm your older brother Gu Xun!"

Zhou Andong immediately stood up and shook Gu Xun's hand: "Older brother, hello!"

Zhou Andong looked at this handsome middle-aged man before him, feeling a surge of emotion: Genes really are something strange. But every Gu family member is more handsome than the last—why is Gu Xiaowu so ugly?

Then Zhou Andong turned his gaze to the pitiful Gu Bing, standing alone outside the crowd. He really wondered if this kid was adopted. After all, Gu men are handsome, Gu women beautiful—only Gu Bing is somewhat lacking in looks.

Gu Xun apologetically said: "I didn't make it back for Qiuqiu's childbirth; this time I specially took leave, mainly to get to know you. So we don't run into each other on the street someday, you knowing me but me not knowing you."

"Andong!" Gu Yun took the initiative to shake Zhou Andong's hand: "Finally met you—you have no idea how much my kid admires you.

This time I came back, he cried and screamed to follow me, but school starts in two days, so he couldn't come—but he asked me to get your autograph."

"No problem with the autograph!" Zhou Andong readily agreed, then looked at the two unfamiliar beautiful women: "These must be the older sister-in-law and third sister-in-law, right?"

Qianqiu introduced the two sisters-in-law to Zhou Andong, and he greeted them in return.

After seeing everyone introduced, Gu Man Laoyezi took Zhou Andong's hand and had him sit down: "Andong, did your grandfather tell you that your qualification review for the people's representative position has already passed?"
