Chapter 282 He came to acknowledge his granddaughter.
Although Gu's mother didn't know what the two old men wanted to do there.
But we couldn't just stand outside in the yard forever, so we invited the two old gentlemen in first.
Although the identity of the elderly man in the Tang suit is unknown, the other one is Gu Nan's former superior.
His status and position were indeed quite high, so Gu's mother dared not neglect him.
"We won't go in yet. Here are some things for you. Please keep them. I need to go see Little Su," Old Master Bai said, his voice sounding quite urgent.
"Niannian? What happened to Niannian?" Gu's mother was even more confused.
What is all this? Can someone explain it to me?
After bringing Yangyang to Gu Zhendong's side, Gu Ningning also went to her mother's side.
"What do you want with my second sister-in-law?" Gu Ningning's smiling face turned somewhat serious.
Although these two old men don't seem like bad people, they came in and immediately went to their second brother and sister-in-law. Could it be that they're going to cause trouble for them?
Although Gu Ningning is young, she feels that she should protect her second brother and sister-in-law.
So, I stepped forward.
Upon seeing this, everyone realized that their actions had caused the little girl to misunderstand. Zhou Qishan quickly put down what he was holding and then explained.
"This is Gu, a former senior official from Nanjing, and this is a renowned physician. They came specifically to see Gu Nan and Su Niannian. Don't misunderstand, they mean no harm," Zhou Qishan explained to Gu Ningning.
Zhou Qishan, Gu Ningning had met him before, at her second brother's wedding.
Gu Ningning had heard from Su Niannian that Zhou Qishan had delivered a very valuable wedding gift on behalf of the two old men, so she was relieved.
As long as it doesn't cause trouble for my second brother and sister-in-law.
Gu Ningning tugged at her mother's hand.
"I've met this man before; he's Gu Nan's former superior. Please come in and sit down so we can talk things over," said Gu's mother, inviting the two inside.
However, the two old men seemed eager to see the two of them right now, so they didn't plan to go inside.
“You two must be tired from your journey. Why don’t I go find someone with this young lady? You two can wait at Gu Nan’s house for a while?” Zhou Qishan suggested tentatively.
The two old men exchanged a glance, realizing they had indeed been in too much of a hurry, and decided to wait there for a while.
After exchanging a glance, Chief Lu told Zhou Qishan to hurry up and call the man back.
Zhou Qishan received orders and asked Gu Ningning if she could take him there.
After confirming that they wouldn't harm her second brother and sister-in-law, Gu Ningning looked at her mother.
After seeing her mother nod, Gu Ningning set off with Zhou Qishan.
First they went to Gu Nan's place and called out to him, and then the three of them went to Su Niannian's place and called out to her.
On the way, Su Niannian and Gu Nan asked Zhou Qishan what was going on.
Zhou Qishan was also puzzled, so he could only tell the two what he knew.
“I was notified early this morning that the two old men had traveled all the way from Beijing to Long County and asked me to send a car to pick them up. I was completely bewildered.”
"I asked them several times on the way, but the two old men were both very excited and didn't tell me the details."
“That’s right, they also brought a lot of gifts, and I don’t know what’s going on,” Zhou Qishan said to the two of them.
Holding Gu Ningning's small hand, Su Niannian roughly understood the current situation from the moment Zhou Qishan began to speak.
Su Niannian's face also showed a somewhat expectant expression.
Gu Nan saw it all, but didn't ask any further questions.
Although we don't know exactly what happened, the fact that the two of them came all the way from Beijing must mean something extraordinary.
As for what it is, you'll find out when you get home, won't you?
On the other side, after Gu Ningning and Zhou Qishan left, the two old men sat down on chairs in the courtyard.
Mother Gu quickly poured two cups of tea for the two of them.
The two old gentlemen hadn't had a proper rest during their long journey, and now, looking at the steaming tea, they were actually quite thirsty.
They all picked up their teacups and started drinking.
After seeing that the two were in a more stable condition than before, Gu's mother finally asked what had happened.
Why are you two in such a hurry to see Gu Nan and Su Niannian?
Could something bad have happened?
Logically speaking, given their status and position, these two should be able to handle things calmly, so why are they acting like this today?
Gu's mother was also feeling uneasy.
"I'm here to tell Gu Nan that he can return to the military base in Beijing," said Commander Lu, then pointed to the elderly man in a Tang suit standing to the side.
"He's here to acknowledge his granddaughter," said Chief Lu, taking another sip of tea.
No sooner had she finished speaking than Gu's mother was surprised by what Chief Lu had said.
Gu's mother naturally knew about Su Niannian's family background.
Gu Nan had told his mother long ago that Su Niannian was not doing well in her original home.
Mistreated by her stepmother, and neglected by her own father, Su Niannian is now... how did such a grandfather suddenly appear?
A national-level master of medicine? Then what about Su Niannian's medical skills?
That's not right. If he came to acknowledge his granddaughter, he must not have known that Su Niannian was his granddaughter before, right?
Gu's mother was a little confused about the situation.
Gu Zhendong, standing to the side, gleaned a considerable amount of information from Chief Lu's words.
It must have been this elderly man in the Tang suit who discovered that Su Niannian was his granddaughter and came to acknowledge her as his relative.
"Mom, she'll be back soon, don't worry," Gu Zhendong said to his mother.
Gu's mother didn't understand what was going on, but since Su Niannian had saved Chief Lu's life before, she was sure they wouldn't harm Gu Nan and Su Niannian now that they were here, and that was enough.
Chief Lu could still exchange a few words with Mother Gu when he had nothing to do, but Old Master Bai's eyes were fixed on the courtyard gate.
I can't answer any questions now.
Over there, Gu Nan, along with Zhou Qishan, Su Niannian, and Gu Ningning, were also walking at a considerable pace.
Throughout the journey, Su Niannian maintained a slight smile.
"Second sister-in-law, what are you laughing at?" Gu Ningning asked Su Niannian, holding her hand.
"Because I'm happy," Su Niannian replied.
"Then what's making Second Sister-in-law so happy?" Gu Ningning asked again.
"I'm so happy... I'm so happy that your second brother is going back to the army to shine and serve the country!" Su Niannian almost let it slip, but luckily she managed to cover it up in time.
"Oh..." Gu Ningning felt that it wasn't just what her second sister-in-law said, but she didn't know what Su Niannian was laughing about.
We'll find out soon enough!
Soon, the group of four appeared on the path leading to Gu Nan's house.
In the courtyard, Grandpa Bai heard footsteps outside and quickly stood up.
He strode out of the yard.
"That old man, his hearing is really good!" Chief Lu also stood up and followed.
