Lin Yanqing, who was sitting on the same seat as Gu Hongzhang, also said: "Brother Gu, Yan'er is still young, how can we separate An'er and Yan'er brother and sister?"
Gu Hongzhang didn't buy it at all: "Last time Yan'er fell into the water, you said you would take good care of her. In such a big palace, the daughter of a legitimate daughter fell into the water twice a month. How can I trust my granddaughter with such carelessness? You? If you are afraid that the brothers and sisters will be separated, then I will take An'er away as well. If you want to come and see me, the General's Mansion is waiting for you at any time!"
Lin Siyuan saw that Gu Hongzhang was out of luck, so he turned to Gu Qingyun.
"Brother, Yan'er is a direct daughter of the Lin family. It is unreasonable to raise her in the general's palace. Please help me persuade my father-in-law."
Gu Qingyun still didn't buy it: "Since my family can't take good care of Yan'er, taking her to the General's Palace will save my brother-in-law from worrying. Just rest assured, Taifu and brother-in-law, we will not let anything happen to Yan'er."
Gu Yichen also stood up and expressed his position: "Master, uncle, my mother treats Yan'er as her own child, and my eldest brother and I also regard Yan'er as our biological sister, and we will definitely take good care of her."
Lin Yanqing and Lin Siyuan's father and son only felt headaches. Facing the three people of the Gu family, it felt like a scholar meeting a soldier.
Lin Jinyan said softly: "Grandpa, uncle, cousin. Yan'er knows that you feel sorry for me and my brother, but we were born in the Lin family. If we all live in the General's Mansion in the future, Yan'er is afraid that others will laugh at the Lin family for not being able to protect their children. I'm even more afraid that uninformed outsiders will laugh at the tyranny of the General's office. How will my brother and I deal with ourselves then?"
Gu Hongzhang said in a deep voice: "Whoever wants to say it, just say it. I, the Gu family, sit upright and are not afraid of slander."
Lin Jinyan: "But Yan'er is afraid. If grandpa is slandered because of Yan'er, Yan'er will feel so sad, and my brother will be sad too."
Gu Hongzhang was so angry that he couldn't bear to face Lin Jinyan. He moved his head to the side and exhaled heavily.
Lin Jinyan walked towards Gu Hongzhang's side and looked at Gu Hongzhang's face with a flattering smile.
"Grandpa, don't be angry. Yan'er just fell into the water. She is still scared now. Grandpa is even more scared when Yan'er has a stern face."
Gu Hongzhang glanced at Lin Jinyan angrily, but he couldn't bear it after all.
"Who are your maids? Don't you know how to help you sit up? How could you watch you fall into the water? It's understandable that it was dark the first time and you couldn't see. This time, you fell into the water in broad daylight. How could you be so bad!"
After hearing this, Manao and Yutong were so frightened that they quickly walked to the middle of the hall and knelt down.
Lin Jinyan: "Grandpa, please don't be angry. I was with my eldest brother and cousin at that time and asked them to do other things. They didn't even follow me. If grandpa wants to blame me, I can blame Yan'er."
Gu Hongzhang looked at the three people kneeling at the door, "Are they them?"
Lin Jinyun and Zhou Yuexuedong'er had been kneeling for a long time, and their knees hurt terribly. Now when they heard Gu Hongzhang's roll call, their hearts jumped into their throats, and they couldn't care less about the pain.
Lin Jinyan nodded: "It's all because Yan'er got carried away chatting with her eldest brother and cousin, so she couldn't stand still and fell into the water. They were also implicated by me."
Gu Hongzhang looked at Lin Siyuan: "Is this Siran's son?"
Lin Siyuan: "It's my second brother's eldest son, named Lin Jinyun."
Gu Hongzhang snorted coldly: "Your second brother's family is really interesting. The older one is greedy for my daughter's dowry, while the younger one takes care of my granddaughter in the pool."
When Lin Jinyun heard this, he lowered his body a little, wishing that Gu Hongzhang couldn't see him.
