Yunbao didn’t have a good impression of Xiao Shan either. In the few times they met, he had been arguing with her parents and didn’t treat Yunbao well.
Yunbao simply buried herself in her eldest uncle’s arms and did not look at Xiao Shan’s expression.
Seeing Yunbao like this, Xiao Shan thought that she was shy. Xiao Shan not only disdained his granddaughter for being too timid, but as his granddaughter, she should be magnanimous. Gu Teng was too bad at teaching children.
Gu Lin was polite to his elders, but when he thought of what Xiao Shan had said yesterday, he said coldly, “Yunbao isn’t feeling well now. She needs to go back to her room to rest.’
What he meant was that they could not talk to Xiao Shan. If he knew what was good for him, he would leave the Gu family quickly.
However, Xiao Shan acted as if he did not have ears. He sat on the sofa and said, “If Yunbao is feeling unwell, go and rest. I’ll wait for Xiao Jing and Gu Teng. The two of them will be back soon, right?”
Gu Lin was very puzzled when he heard this. Xiao Jing and Gu Teng did not go out today. Why did Xiao Shan say that they were coming back soon?
After thinking about it, he quickly understood that they didn’t want to see Xiao Shan, so they came up with such an excuse to fool him.
Before Gu Lin could continue to chase her away, Gu Teng rushed down the stairs and carried Yunbao away. “The Gu family is not seeing guests today.”
The moment Xiao Shan saw Gu Teng, he understood everything. He said angrily, “The elders came to visit, but you didn’t meet me. You even lied about being outside. Is this the upbringing of the Gu family’s daughter?”
“Please be careful with your words!” Gu Lin immediately shouted. “Our Gu family’s daughter’s upbringing doesn’t need the criticism of others.”
Only then did Xiao Shan realize what he had said. However, he did not regret saying these words to Gu Teng. He should have let Gu Teng know that she was the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family and should abide by the Xiao family’s rules.
Xiao Jing followed closely behind and ran down the stairs. He protected his wife and children and said, “Hurry up and leave while I’m still polite to you. Otherwise, I’ll let someone drag you out!”
Xiao Shan’s eyes widened. “I’m your father. How dare you speak to me like that?”
“When you spoke ill of my wife and daughter, you never thought that you were my father.” Xiao Jing was unmoved.
Xiao Shan was so angry that he almost fainted. He said those words for Xiao Jings own good. Only after stepping on Gu Tengs dignity would she become obedient. Otherwise, with her status as the daughter of the Gu family, she could easily suppress Xiao Jing.
Xiao Shan felt that his painstaking efforts were not understood. He sighed and said, “Even if I was wrong just now, when will you give birth to a grandson for
“Why are you so obsessed with a grandson? Nowadays, boys and girls are the same.” Xiao Jing frowned. “You have so many sons outside. If you want a grandson, they can probably bring one back for you immediately.”
Xiao Shan roared, “How can this be the same? You’re the heir of the Xiao family. You have to have a son. Otherwise, our Xiao family’s bloodline will be severed.’
His words were self-righteous, as if the sky would collapse if Xiao Jing did not give birth to a son. Gu Teng lowered her head to hide the tears in her eyes. Xiao Shan’s words were essentially criticizing her.
Gu Lin couldn’t bear to see his sister sad. He stood up and said, “It’s not like the Xiao family has a throne to inherit. Boys and girls can inherit the family business. Mr. Xiao is too pedantic.”
“How can this be the same? Your daughter will be married off and become an outsider sooner or later. Will your Gu family let Gu Teng be the heir?” Xiao Shan felt that Gu Lin was making to crack wise.
Unexpectedly, Gu Lin nodded and said, “Our Gu family has never had only one heir. All the children can inherit a portion of the Gu family. As long as Little Sister is willing, we are willing to give up the inheritance.”
These words shocked Xiao Shan. He could not believe that someone would be willing to give up the inheritance rights. Moreover, the Gu family had so many sons. It was impossible for Gu Teng to be the heir. Was Gu Lin crazy?
Xiao Jing couldn’t take it anymore and said, “Since you care so much about your so-called grandson, I’ll make a will today. After I die, all my assets will be inherited by Yunbao.”
Xiao Shan quickly stopped her. “That won’t do. You and Gu Teng are still young. You’ll definitely have a child in the future. When he’s born, he won’t have any assets.”
“l also want to make a will to leave the assets to Yunbao,” Gu Teng said. “Xiao
Jing and I will only have one child. This will is a sign of our determination.”
These words were like a bolt from the blue to Xiao Shan. They were more useful than any verbal counterattack. If Xiao Jing and Gu Teng only said that they didn’t want to have another child, he could still pester them and force them to have another child.
However, if they made a will, there would really be no hope. No matter how much he made a fuss, it would be useless..
