The old lady's smile disappeared, and she looked at Lou Jinhuan like a silent question.
Gu Jiao stood directly between her and Lou Jinhuan, with a smile on his face, but his words were not polite at all.
"Originally, New Year's Day just passed yesterday, and today is still on holiday. I'm a guest and shouldn't say anything. But I endured it all the way, and I can't bear it anymore. If what I said is wrong, please forgive me, Madam."
Gu Jiao turned his head and glanced at Lou Jinhuan. Lou Jinhuan was a little helpless, but did not stop him.
He had told him before, but Gu Jiao was not one who could swallow his anger. He had been holding back his anger all the way, but now he could really light it up.
She believed that Gu Jiao was sensible and would not embarrass her too much.
Gu Jiao saw her look away and knew that she acquiesced, and his mood improved a little. He took a deep breath and reorganized his words.
"Old madam, I am a junior. Logically speaking, I shouldn't talk to you about this, but you don't act like an elder, so why don't we just talk openly."
Gu Jiao squatted down in front of the old lady and looked at her curiously: "Tingting is your granddaughter, right? She is Uncle Lou's only daughter, right? You are the closest people in the world, why are you not even with me? Are they inferior to outsiders?"
The old lady's hand tightened on the armrest, and veins bulged on the back of her hand. Her expression instantly turned cold, "You educate me? What does it have to do with you how I treat her?"
"Of course it does matter. I am her boyfriend." After Gu Jiao finished speaking, he faced the old lady's shocked eyes and added: "No, he is the fiancé. When she comes of age, we will get engaged. When she is of the right age, we will get married." After getting married, she will be the one who takes care of our family from now on. It doesn't matter if you don't like her, we like her and we think she is very good."
I don't know what his words touched the old lady's nerves. She suddenly changed her expression and growled excitedly: "What's so good about people who have killed their biological parents? Are you crazy?"
Gu Jiao's heart sank, and his uncontrollable anger set ablaze.
【Is she okay? 】
[No, how could anyone believe such a thing? Wasn't it an accident? Lou Lou was only so old at that time. She lost her parents all of a sudden. How could this old lady blame her? 】
[There is indeed such a superstitious saying in ancient China, which has harmed many people. It can only be said that it is too ignorant. Maybe she knows in her heart that these are false, but in order to make herself feel better, she finds a scapegoat]
[I feel sorry for Loulou, she has only such a relative left, and he still hates her. Fortunately, Aunt Bai and Uncle Gu gave her a complete home and childhood]
"Who is crazy?" Lou Jinhuan stood up and walked to Gu Jiao and pulled him up. The arms under his palms were tensed, as if he was trying his best to restrain himself.
She patted Gu Jiao's back twice comfortingly, "It's okay."
Gu Jiao looked at her, his eyes instantly turning red.
Lou Jinhuan was stunned. He had to be so distressed to turn his eyes red.
She held Gu Jiao's hand tightly and turned to look at the old lady.
The old lady's eyes were full of hatred, and she looked at Lou Jinhuan unabashedly. In comparison, Lou Jinhuan was terrifyingly calm.
"Grandma, was it me who caused the accident? Did I let them go out? Was it that I didn't want to follow?"
The old lady opened and closed her lips and was about to spit out curse words, but was blocked by Lou Jinhuan's words.
"You may have forgotten that you said you were lonely at home and asked me to stay with you, so my parents didn't take me away. Grandma, it was you who saved me."
Lou Jinhuan even smiled when he said, "It's so unreasonable for you to hate me. If you hadn't said those words at that time, I would have died with them."
The old lady's eyes widened and she stared at her blankly. She kept making noises in her throat, but she didn't say anything.
Lou Jinhuan's words were like a pair of ruthless hands that opened up the fog of self-deception, revealing the bloody truth behind it.
"If I knew you would hate me so much, I might as well have let them take me away with you. But there is no if. Grandma, you have hated me for so long. You have forgotten that you loved me back then, right? If you had loved me back then, It was you, why did it turn into hatred again?"
The old lady made an unexplained sound in her throat, but she shed tears without saying anything.
Gu Jiao sighed and said in a deep voice, "Old madam, she doesn't owe you anything. Her pain is no less than yours. Are you not torturing yourself by hating her like this? Forget it."
"ah……"
The old lady finally couldn't help crying.
Lou Jinhuan glanced at her with pity, "Don't worry, if you don't want to see me, I won't come again. If you need anything, you can call me. Goodbye."
She pulled Gu Jiao away.
Aunt Wang hurriedly caught up, "Miss, Master Gu, are you leaving now? You didn't book a flight so early, did you? Where are you going?"
Lou Jinhuan changed her shoes and said, "Eating, Aunt Wang, don't worry about us. We have money, so we won't treat ourselves badly. You can comfort grandma."
Gu Jiao didn't need to change his shoes and went out first to wait for her.
He turned around and looked at the villa hidden among the trees, and suddenly felt that it was a prison, trapping people who were addicted to the past and couldn't get out.
Lou Jinhuan put on her shoes and walked over. Gu Jiao held her hand, "I called a car and it will be there soon."
"Um."
Lou Jinhuan walked out with him, and Gu Jiao couldn't help but ask: "I have wronged you all these years, why did you never tell us?"
"There's nothing to say, and there's nothing to feel wronged about. In fact, compared to me, don't you think grandma is the poor person?"
Lou Jinhuan looked calm, "I have you, Aunt Bai and Uncle Gu by my side. I never feel that I am pitiful. On the contrary, I feel that I am very happy. But grandma is different. She is trapped here by herself, day after day. How pitiful is it that you keep repeating the pain and stubbornly hate me?"
Gu Jiao was stunned for a moment, then calmed down and thought about it, it was true that the old lady was more pitiful like this, but he didn't sympathize with her. If she could let go of her grudge, she would still have a granddaughter who loved her and could have a happy family, but she I gave up all this, who can I blame?
The car he called stopped hesitantly at the door of the villa. The driver lowered the window and asked, "Is this the car you called?"
"It's me, let's go."
Gu Jiao pulled Lou Jinhuan into the car.
The two of them didn't mention this heavy topic again after they got in the car. Lou Jinhuan took Gu Jiao to have a meal. After the two of them had eaten, it was almost time. The two of them bought some B-town specialties as gifts for Baizhu. and Gu Yuan.
After returning home, Bai Shu and Gu Yuan asked about the old lady's situation. Gu Jiao and Lou Jinhuan both mentioned it in one sentence without saying anything more. Bai Shu and Gu Yuan could also guess a thing or two, so they didn't ask any more questions, and the matter just ended. .
After the three-day vacation, Lou Jinhuan and Gu Jiao returned to the hard work of studying.
The two years between the second and third years of high school are crucial. No matter how close the two are in private, they have not fallen behind in their studies.
After three years of sharpening their swords, both of them achieved satisfactory results after the college entrance examination.
