it only seemed as lazy as a cat because it didn’t sense any danger, but once it felt threatened, it could be more ferocious than a wolf in the mountains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Youyou was unconvinced because, in her eyes, Abao was just a big cat that loved to chase butterflies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sanya’s tender little hands caressed Abao’s head, and she laughed, while Abao also seemed to enjoy it very much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sanya, be careful!” Meng Qiuju was still very nervous; even though it was a dog raised by Gu Youyou, it was quite frightening, and dogs could bite people, couldn’t they?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Youyou just squatted down and said to Abao, “You play with my little sister in the yard and don’t bully her.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meng Qiuju smiled and shook her head, still somewhat worried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Feng leaned on the door as he came out, and Gu Youyou quickly went forward to support him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Grandpa, why are you outside?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s windy out here.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The autumn wind was somewhat cool, not suitable for Grandpa’s health which could be affected by the wind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Feng said, “I heard a scream and thought it was Youyou’s dog startling someone.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dad, it’s just that I’m too cowardly,” Meng Qiuju said, looking at Sanya playing with Abao and bowing her head in shame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It is quite frightening; it looks like a wolf,” Gu Feng said, “But that’s good, too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Youyou, a girl, having to walk such a long mountain path every day, it’s safer with it around.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Feng lay back on the bed, and Gu Youyou had already given him his medicine for the day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His illness had significantly improved, but he still lacked energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some ailments are not of the body but of the heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A doctor can heal physical illnesses, but one must rely on themselves for the matters of the heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Youyou frowned and said, “Grandma has been gone for many days now; Grandpa needs to come out of his grief sooner rather than later.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A couple in their youth grows old together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was normal for Grandpa to be unable to accept Grandma’s sudden departure; he needed time to come to terms with it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, Gu Youyou was not overly concerned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time can heal all wounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a few days, once he saw things clearly, he would be better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was something he had also said himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Feng laughed and said, “Grandpa is old, don’t trouble yourself!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A doctor can cure illness but can’t fight fate; everyone has their day.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Youyou disagreed with this notion and said, “Being in good spirits can prolong life, showing that being healthy isn’t necessarily about being less able as one gets older.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Feng laughed heartily and said, “Youyou always has a set of principles, and Grandpa can’t argue with you anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You were easier to comfort when you were little.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Youyou laughed as well and said, “People have to grow up; we can’t always be as easy to comfort as when we were young.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Youyou had spoken without intent, yet it made Gu Feng recall certain things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His smile stiffened on his face, and his expression turned somber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Gu Youyou’s demeanor also became solemn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Grandpa, what’s wrong?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Feng didn’t directly answer, but instead looked at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment, he sighed and said, “Youyou is right, people do grow up and can’t always be fooled.”\u003C\u002Fp>",726,"2026-06-06T06:54:47.694Z",1,"novelbin.me","57248ec316a1a4cb08b6fb38c120e24788290a46619da9696576a00e302ccefd","the-challenge-of-a-farmhouse-son-in-law-chapter-295","the-challenge-of-a-farmhouse-son-in-law-chapter-293",1812,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-challenge-of-a-farmhouse-son-in-law-cover.jpg"]
