Why did the old man keep asking her if she knew how to play Go?
Could it be that as their daughter-in-law, she had to take the zither, go, painting, and calligraphy tests?
“Then what do you know?” The old man’s expression was very serious.
“Does Chinese … Chinese Checkers count?” Gu nianjia asked nervously.
After saying that, she wanted to bite her own tongue.
How could she say such a childish game?
Would the old man be angry? Would he think that she was just teasing him? would he think that she did not value her elders at all?
Gu nianjia’s palms began to sweat as she turned to look at Zhang Jingyu for help.
Zhang Jingyu gave her a reassuring smile and patted the back of her hand gently.
After an hour …
This was already the third round that Gu nianjia had won. However, Grandpa Shen was always one step behind. Seeing that Gu nianjia was about to reach the finish line again, Grandpa Shen began to carefully study the dice in his hand.
Teacher Sun reminded him from the side,”dad, if you throw it to the fourth, you’ll fall into the sea. You’ll have to take three steps back.”
In truth, the old man was worried about this problem. When he heard Teacher sun’s reminder, he felt a little vexed and replied angrily,””I know, you have to tell me.”
Teacher sun’s lips twitched.
She would not say it.
The old man snorted and threw the dice in his hand. The dice turned a few times on the table and stopped when it was fouro’ clock.
Teacher Sun raised her head and laughed out loud.”Hahaha …”
He laughed so hard that his shoulders trembled and he couldn’t breathe.
Even Zhang Jingyu could not stop himself from laughing. Gu nianjia wanted to laugh as well. However, she could not let the old man find out. She covered her mouth with her hand as she prepared to laugh.
“What are you laughing at?” the old man suddenly shouted.
Gu nianjia immediately put her hands down and became serious.
Teacher Sun was still smiling, not caring about the old man’s prestige at all.
She laughed so hard that tears came out.
When the old master saw how happy she was, his serious face became gentle again, and his eyes were filled with love.
After staring at sun Lifen for a while, the old lady suddenly turned to look at Gu nianjia.”I’ll tell you about the child.”
“Huh?” Gu nianjia’s ears perked up.
Grandpa Shen pointed at sun Lifen as he said to Gu nianjia,””Torture your mother-in-law well in the future.”
“Ah?” Gu nianjia thought that she had misheard the old lady. ‘Torture her mother-in-law?’
Wasn’t her mother-in-law his daughter?
What was the meaning of this? He wasn’t her biological son, was he?
This was probably a trap dug by the old man.
Gu nianjia did not dare to respond as she turned to look at Zhang Jingyu for help.
The old man’s voice continued,”let her give birth to a son at the risk of her life.”
This sentence caused the atmosphere to suddenly become serious and heavy.
The expressions on Zhang Jingyu and sun Lifen’s faces changed slightly, especially Zhang Jingyu ‘s. The smile on his face gradually disappeared.
Although she didn’t know what had happened, there must be something hidden in the old master’s words.
“I won ‘t, I won’ T. I’ll definitely be filial to you.” Gu nianjia grinned as she shook her head.
No… Wasn’t this change of topic a little too sudden?
How did a game of Chinese Checkers end up talking about the future relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law?
The old man didn’t say anything more. He lowered his head and looked at them playing Chinese Checkers.”How many points did I just throw?”
“You threw a …”
Just as Gu nianjia was about to remind the old man that he had thrown a four, Zhang Jingyu, who was next to her, cleared his throat as if he was reminding her of something.
