Chapter 100 One Hundred Children
Seeing the elder and the younger in tears hugging each other in the hall, the Gu family was a little dazed.
"Is this Yanyan's grandma?"
"How did she find it?"
"I don't know... The couple's faces turned green, as if they were afraid of grandma?"
"Hey, I always think this grandma looks familiar, have I seen it somewhere..."
The five members of the Gu family lined up in a row, as if they were in the special seat of a big show, calmly and curiously looking at the family of four across from them. If they were given melon seeds, they could each have a small bench and eat melon seeds like a village aunt. Watch the fun.
"...Mom...you, why are you here?"
Chu Feng immediately thought of those rumors on the Internet.
"Mom, is there anyone in the family who is talking in your ears? Don't listen to those people on the Internet, I didn't use Yanyan! It's all those who spread rumors behind their backs..."
Grandma Chu, who was protecting Chu Yan in her arms, looked at her eldest son lightly.
Among the three sons she gave birth to, Chu Feng was the oldest, but also the most immature and unsatisfactory.
It's okay if she just doesn't live up to her expectations. Her family has a lot of wealth, so it's not a problem to help Chu Feng's family from time to time.
But what is more terrifying than incompetence is incompetence and greed.
A few years ago, she had a bad heart and had to undergo heart bypass surgery. The risk of the operation was not small. Chu Feng asked around about the company shares and funds in her hands, as well as how to distribute more than a dozen properties.
Because of this, she and Chu Feng's family have been estranged a lot in recent years. She is usually in a nursing home abroad, and she pays little attention to Chu Yan.
She thought that tiger poison would not eat its children, who knew that her eldest son would be bad, and even her own daughter would not be spared.
"Why am I here?" Grandma Chu brushed through Chu Yan's hair and snorted coldly, "If I don't come, Yanyan doesn't know how she will be tortured by you!"
Chu Feng and Yan Huaiyue's faces were ashen, and they were obviously a little worried about the old lady.
Yan Huaiyue: "Mom...how do you say torture, you are too serious..."
Chu Feng: "That's right, it was all good, Yanyan danced ballet so well and won so many awards, Yanyan has so many fans at a young age, and our family is still on variety shows together, so our family It's great that people can stay together every day..."
If hadn't heard what Chu Yan said during the live broadcast yesterday, Grandma Chu might have acquiesced.
But the fact is that all the glamorous achievements and status they said were all climbed up step by step with Chu Yan's sweat and tears.
"Where are you talking about?"
Grandma Chu laughed angrily.
"When you were young, I invited the best piano teacher, violin teacher, and painting teacher for you. You liked rocket satellites, and I invited you a professor from the Academy of Engineering. As a result, after your initial interest, you just rolled around. Don't learn, your dad and I are a little tougher, and you say that we suppress your playful nature, don't feel bad for children, and are vicious parents."
Of course, Chu Feng still remembered the events of his childhood. At this time, Grandma Chu mentioned them one by one, so embarrassed that he couldn't raise his head.
"You had a carefree childhood and a young boy who didn't want to make progress. Now that you're old, you in turn squeeze your daughter and let her do things you didn't want to do back then, and fulfill your unfulfilled wishes. By the way, do you want to take your career to the next level?"
"Xiaofeng, Xiaofeng, you don't want to work hard on your own, and you want everything. You really want to take advantage of everything in your life."
Every word of the old man is like a razor, and every sentence is like a sharp knife, stabbing into people's mouths steadily.
Even Yu Lan, who was beside him, couldn't help but whisper:
"The old man is worthy of being an old man. The logic is clear and it also pokes people's pain points. It's amazing."
Chu Feng was also said to be blushing. After all, he was not too young, and his mother exposed his shortcomings in front of outsiders, which was more embarrassing than simply scolding the Gu family.
"Mom, even if we're wrong, we'll go home and say if there's something wrong, don't stay here..."
"I don't think there's anything inappropriate here." Grandma Chu took Chu Yan's hand lightly and said over him, "What's more, do you think I will let you take Yanyan away?"! ?
What does it mean? ?
Chu Feng and Yan Huaiyue were shocked, and before they recovered from the impact of these words, Grandma Chu had already led Chu Yan to Gu Qizhou.
"I apologize to you for my two unsatisfactory sons and daughters-in-law for causing trouble to your family."
"...You're polite, and I didn't cause any trouble. Yanyan is very cute. Fortunately, you arrived in time today, and I will be more relieved if Yanyan is handed over to you."
Gu Qizhou looked at the silver-haired old lady in front of her, but she still took good care of her.
This looks like a well-off, very particular old lady, the kind of temperament and self-cultivation infiltrated in her bones, even the wrinkles and spots can't hide it.
Yu Lan thought about it for a while. Speaking of it, it seemed that there had been rumors before that Chu Feng's family had a great background and was a remarkable artistic family, and that all his contacts were with a group of well-known children from wealthy families in the city.
After listening to it, she thought, what if the rich children did not inherit the family property and came to pursue their dreams in the entertainment industry? how is this possible?
But seeing the old lady in front of her, she immediately believed most of it.
The old lady looked at Gu Qizhou's face carefully and nodded slightly:
"... He still looks the same as when he was a child, and his eyes are very similar to your father."
Gu Qizhou: ...?
This sudden familiar tone caught everyone off guard.
What does this mean?
Why does it sound like the two are related? ? ?
Especially Gu Qizhou, he hadn't heard anyone mention his father for a long time, and he didn't react for a while.
"Grandma, do you know my grandpa?"
The innocent voice broke the silence, Grandma Chu looked down, and a small dumpling carved in pink and jade was looking up at her.
Chu Yan introduced: "Grandma, this is my good friend, she helped me a lot."
The child's eyes are clear, his speech is generous, and he has a small round face that the elderly like. Grandma Chu likes it when she sees it.
"You are Yoyo, our Yanyan is troublesome to take care of."
Yoyo hehe smiled and said, "You're welcome! Sister Yanyan is taking care of me too, we take care of each other!"
Grandma Chu lovingly patted Yoyo's head.
"My grandfather and I have known each other before. I hugged your father when he was one or two years old."
"Wow"
Dad's one or two years old, that was really a long, long time ago, right?
"Have you seen grandpa?"
"No." Yoyo shook her head, glanced at Gu Qizhou's expression, and whispered sadly, "Grandpa has passed away for a long time. Grandma, you always mention Grandpa, Dad will be sad."
Yoyo, although she has never met her grandfather, she has a strong ability to empathize. When she thinks that her grandfather is her father's father, if her father dies, she will be very sad. The same is true. Dad never mentions his grandfather. It was because he was so sad.
Grandma Chu: "..."
... long dead?
Who was the old man who attended the business summit some time ago? ?
Yoyo's whisper was just what she thought it was, but in fact Gu Qizhou and Yu Lan could hear it clearly.
"...Then, that Aunt Chu, you've been standing for so long, why don't you sit down and let's talk slowly?" Gu Qizhou interrupted awkwardly, "Everyone sit down, I'll make tea for you..."
Grandma Chu looked meaningfully at the back of Gu Qizhou walking away in a hurry.
So, the rumors seem to be true?
"Mom! What do you mean!" Seeing Grandma Chu sitting down on the sofa slowly, Chu Feng said anxiously, "Why don't you let Yanyan go with us? Yanyan is your granddaughter and our daughter!"
Grandma Chu asked, "Yanyan, would you like to go home with your parents?"
After Chu Yan heard this, she immediately hugged her grandma's arm tightly.
She doesn't want to!
This time she stabbed such a big basket, if she goes home with her parents, she will be scolded bloody!
"You see, this is the child's own meaning."
Yan Huaiyue became anxious: "What does Yanyan know so little? We are Yanyan's parents and her guardians. Who doesn't she follow us? Can you be our parents instead?"
This made Grandma Chu hesitate for a while.
Chu Yan is only twelve years old and is about to enter adolescence of psychological changes. If the presence of parents is absent at this stage, it will have a huge impact on children's outlook on life and values.
Grandma Chu wanted to pick up Chu Yan to make her happy, not to make her life missing an important piece.
Yo Yo listened in a daze, turned around and asked Chu Yan:
"Sister Yanyan, what are they fighting over?"
"...Fight me."
Chu Yan lowered her head, struggling a little inside.
Of course she didn't want to go back to the dark days in the past, but...she couldn't control her soft heart.
She couldn't help thinking of her parents who took her to the hospital in the middle of the night when she was sick, and her parents who were still studying nutrition in the middle of the night so that she would not be deprived of nutrition due to dieting.
If she really lives with her grandmother in the future, she will miss her parents too.
It's not that I miss the time when they forced me to practice ballet on the show, but I miss the good things that have been done to her.
Chu Yan was very sad.
Why are people not pure bad, pure good.
Why should she be so cruel to her, but also in the cruelty, mixed with a little warmth that makes people unable to be completely cruel.
Yoyo saw that Chu Yan was about to cry again, and handed her the paper suspiciously:
"You are a family, why are you arguing with you? Fighting back and forth, you are also a family."
Grandma Chu, who was worried, heard the children's whispers, and unconsciously continued to listen.
Chu Yan: "No... it's about who I want to live with."
"Oh." Yoyo nodded, it turned out to be arguing for this, "but, can't the family live together?"
Although Yoyo's grandmother doesn't often live at Gu's house, that's because Ms. Luo Biying's spare time is really rich. She either organizes and teaches the elderly to knit fancy sweaters together, or forms a team to dance in the square.
The reason why she seldom came to live in Gu's big villa was entirely because no one danced square dancing in the villa area, and Ms. Luo Biying, the king of square dancing, was very lonely.
And when Grandma Chu heard this, she suddenly realized.
...that's right.
She lives alone anyway, so instead of letting Chu Yan live with her in an empty big villa, it is better for the Chu family and the couple to move in together.
In this way, she can not only supervise the couple's education of their children at all times, but also prevent Chu Yan from being separated from her parents at a young age, which is the best of both worlds.
When Grandma Chu said this to Chu Feng, Yan Huaiyue and his wife, both of them were reluctant.
"...I have to move, why so much fanfare..."
Of course, they didn't find it troublesome to move, but if Grandma Chu was constantly monitoring them, they obviously couldn't train Chu Yan as they wished and according to their methods as before.
"Don't want to?" Grandma Chu raised her eyebrows, "Alright, then Yanyan will come alone, you can just stay at home on your show and film your scenes, oh right, now the reputation of the two of you may not be accepted. What's the announcement?"
Grandma Chu spoke calmly and calmly.
"If you really have the guts, don't worry about my little money. I'll leave it to Yanyan in the future. You have hands and feet, so you shouldn't look down on my share."
Hearing this, the couple hurriedly agreed:
"Move, move, we'll clean up when we go back, and move tomorrow!"
Chu Yan, who was listening silently, her eyes lit up little by little.
Grandma Chu said to her lovingly:
"Don't worry, grandma will not let you be bullied by your heartless mother and father like before."
Heartless bastard parents dare not speak out.
Yoyo saw that Chu Yan finally smiled sincerely, and she was also happy.
"Uncle Uncle!"
When Chu Feng was feeling bitter in his heart, he suddenly saw You You patted him lightly:
"Uncle, can you lend me your coat?"
Chu Feng: ?
"Can you? Can you lend me?"
The little girl put her hands together, her attitude was sincere, her big eyes flickered, and she was unbelievably well-behaved.
To be looked at with this kind of eyes, even a hard-hearted person would find it hard to refuse.
In addition, with Grandma Chu watching, even though Chu Feng was full of question marks, he still took off a thin coat outside and handed it to Yoyo.
"What do you want my coat for?"
The coat was handed to the front, but Yoyo didn't pick it up, but pulled Chu Yan over and caught the coat with Chu Yan's hands.
Chu Yan: ? ? ?
"That's it!"
Yoyo happily applauds his cleverness.
But everyone didn't know what the good thing was, Chu Yan asked in confusion:
"What good?"
Yoyo smiled and said, "Sister Yanyan is free! Free!"
The adults are still in the fog, wondering where the magical brain circuit of the child in front of them is connected.
However, a few children understood.
Chu Yan was also slightly stunned.
She looked down at the clothes in her arms and thought of the classic Harry Potter scene in which Harry helped the house-elves to be free.
House-elves are slaves of wizarding families, bound by their masters and cannot disobey their master's orders.
The only way to be free is for the owner to hand them a piece of clothing.
The elf in the movie got a sock tricked by a trick and happily said "Dobby is free".
And today, she also got her freedom.
In the confused eyes of the adults, Chu Yan shed hot tears and hugged Yoyo.
"...I'm not a house-elf! I don't have bat ears!"
Yoyo then changed his mouth very spinelessly:
"Of course! Sister Yanyan is a fairy! Not an elf with bat ears!"
For a moment, Chu Yan burst into tears and laughed.
It turns out that there is magic in this world.
