twenty days later...
Fatty Gao Tong played wildly with Gao Xiaobao in Chu Yang's yard all afternoon. It wasn't until after dinner that he followed his father and happily returned to Second Aunt's yard on his own wooden wheeled cart.
"Grandma, I'm back, mother, I'm back!" Riding his beloved wooden cart, Gao Tong rode directly into the yard. Before seeing anyone, he started yelling.
"Little boy is back!" Hearing the child's voice, Master Gao and Second Auntie walked out of the living room with smiles. Greeted the returning grandson.
"Grandpa, you're here too!" Seeing his grandfather, the little fat man stopped the car, got out of the car with a smile, and ran towards Master Gao.
"You, what are you riding?" Reaching out his hand, Master Gao grabbed his grandson's chubby hand.
"Ah, it's a wooden cart, uncle gave it to me!" Speaking of his wooden cart, Gao Tong looked proud.
"Oh? Your uncle gave it to you?" Raising his eyebrows, Master Gao felt a little surprised. Xin said: When did this talented person change his sex, and he even gave Gaotong a toy car
"Yeah, brother Bao'er and I have one bike each, and we often ride bikes together. Grandpa, do you think I've lost weight recently? Am I getting stronger?" Gao Tong also showed off his Small arms, but unfortunately, he has no muscles in his small arms.
"Hahaha, it is indeed a lot stronger!" Looking at his grandson, Master Gao smiled and rubbed the child's head.
"Look at you, you've sweated a lot!" Saying that, Second Aunt hurriedly took out a handkerchief to wipe her grandson's sweat.
"Little boy, where did you go to play? Did you go to race with Xiaobao?" Looking at his grandson, Master Gao asked with a smile.
"No, I didn't ride a bike. Brother Bao'er and I played slides, seesaws, treadmills and walking in the clouds together. They were all very fun!" Speaking of this, Gao Tong was very happy.
"Oh? What is this slide?" Raising his eyebrows, Master Gao looked puzzled.
"Oh, that's a toy in the elder brother's yard. The elder brother made it for Bao'er. The little boy often goes to play with Bao'er!" Said, the second young master Gao Youde walked into the yard.
Hearing this, Master Gao looked at his second son. "Why, did you also go to Youcai's yard?"
"Yes, father, those toys are made of iron. The eldest brother said that someone needs to accompany the child to ensure the child's safety before he can play. So, every time I take the child to play!" Speaking of this , Gao Youde is also very helpless.
Originally, it was a woman's business to take care of children, but it was hard to say to let my daughter-in-law run into the uncle's yard! Therefore, Gao Youde could only play with his son, and seeing his son playing so happily, Gao Youde felt that it was no big deal to sacrifice half an hour or an hour to play with the child once.
"Why don't I know, there are those things in Youcai's yard?" Raising his eyebrows, Master Gao was very confused.
"Father didn't know that these things were new additions. The elder brother cut down the poplar trees in the yard. To free up space, he made these fun toys for Bao'er!"
"That's it!" Nodding his head, Master Gao expressed his understanding. "By the way, when I went home recently, I always saw craftsmen coming in and out. What's going on in Youcai's yard?"
"Oh, back to my father, there is no construction in the elder brother's yard. However, the elder brother has demolished the main building, east and west wing rooms in the west courtyard!" At this point, Gao Youde shrank his neck. I thought to myself: Dad knows that his elder brother is demolishing the house, so he might be angry!
"What? He demolished all the houses in the west courtyard? Then, what about his concubines? Where are the servants?" Staring at his second son, Master Gao asked in disbelief.
"Oh, my lord, there are no servants left. Youcai sold all the forty servants in the west courtyard on the first day after thinking about it behind closed doors. And five of his six concubines have been dismissed. Only Qiao Yindi has not been divorced, and now both Qiao Yindi and Bao'er are living in Youcai's yard!" As she spoke, Second Aunt hurriedly replied.
"What? Take off my concubine? Sell the servant? Want to demolish the house? I think he is going to turn the world upside down!" After hearing what the second aunt said, Master Gao turned pale with anger, flicked his sleeves, turned and left .
"Hey, Dad, Dad..." Following behind, Gao Youde called twice, but he didn't call him back.
"Mother, this..." Turning his head, Gao Youde looked at his mother.
"Hmph, why are you in such a hurry? Tell your father to go and see that big brother of yours who is doing something wrong. Let's see if he dares to make trouble in the house again after he is talented!" At this point, Second Aunt's face was full of complacency. She knew that Wang Yue'e had always wanted to keep Gao Youcai's affairs from her side. Therefore, there is no servant who dares to say a word with the master. But, this time, she just wanted to tell the master clearly what Gao Youcai did, and let the master know what his good son, who was thinking behind closed doors, had been doing for the past two months!
"Mother, father, he won't punish elder brother again, right?" Looking at his mother, Gao Youde couldn't help feeling a little worried.
Hearing this, Second Aunt couldn't help but roll her eyes. "You useless thing, what do you care about that bully? He'd better be expelled from the house, then you will be the eldest son of the Gao family!"
Seeing his mother's excited appearance, Gao Youde smiled wryly. My heart said: How is that possible? The aunt and father are a couple in need. The aunt is a lady of every family. When she married her father, the father was still a poor boy. It was the aunt who took out all her dowry to help her father open a drug store and help him find relationships and business. That’s why my father earned the family he has today. Industry. Therefore, in the heart of the father, the aunt is not only his first wife, but also his great benefactor. No matter how messed up, no future, and no hope for the elder brother, he is still the son born by the aunt. Even if it is for the sake of the aunt, it is impossible for the father to drive the eldest brother out of the house. Mother, I always like to dream.
———————————
Coming out of Second Aunt's yard, Master Gao went straight to the yard of his eldest son Gao Youcai.
Stepping into the yard, the first thing that caught Master Gao's eyes were those strange-shaped iron bumps on the left and right sides. Stared at those things. Master Gao guessed, these should be the slides and seesaws that the boy mentioned, right
"Greetings, Master!" Seeing Master Gao walk into the yard, the nurses standing on both sides hurriedly bowed their heads in salute.
"Yeah!" After glancing at the six of them lightly, Master Gao continued to walk in, only to hear the child's silver bell-like laughter.
"Daddy, this steamed cake is really delicious. I wish I could eat it every day!" Bao'er said happily while eating Chu Yang's steamed cake.
"Hey, snack foodie, eat less. It's a birthday cake made for your mother and father. You'll eat it up in a while!" Looking at his son, Chu Yang smiled helplessly.
"Daddy, you only love your mother and father now, and you don't love Bao'er anymore!" Looking at his father, the child said aggrievedly.
"Hey, you kid, when will I stop loving you?" Frowning depressedly, Chu Yang raised his hand and rubbed his son's little face.
"Eat, I'll just take a small bite!" Saying that, Qiao Yindi pushed the plate towards her son.
"Hee hee, my parents still love me!" Looking at the cake delivered, Bao'er said happily.
"You!" Chu Yang cast a helpless look at his son, grabbed a piece of cake and put it in Qiao Yindi's bowl.
"Daddy, save some for me!" Seeing that a large piece of cake was suddenly missing from the plate, Gao Xiaobao had a look of grievance.
"I… "
"Greetings, Master!" Seeing Master Gao walking in, the maids on both sides hurriedly bowed to salute.
"Grandpa?" Seeing someone coming, Bao'er hurriedly stood up and said hello.
"Bye, see you master!" Standing up, Qiao Yindi hurriedly put down the chopsticks in her hand and saluted Master Gao.
"Father, you're here!" Seeing the sudden visit of the angry old man, Chu Yang was very calm and didn't find it strange at all. He has already started demolishing the house. It would be strange if the old man didn't come again!
"Ah!" Seeing his son, Master Gao responded coldly. His complexion was very ugly.
"Father, my son cooks for himself today and made a dessert, do you want to try it?" Smiling, Chu Yang invited his father to the table.
"I didn't come to eat with you. I have something to tell you, go to your study!" After looking at Er Bao'er, his father and son, and the servant girls, Master Gao turned around and walked towards his son's study .
"Yes!" In response, Chu Yang hastily left with his father.
"Gao Shun, the master's complexion is not very good. If you are talented, you will be fine?" Seeing the father and son leave, Qiao Yindi immediately became nervous.
"Young Master Qiao, you don't have to worry. I'll invite my wife over here!" Gao Shun turned around and left. If there is one person in this high mansion who can manage the master, then that person must be Madam, as long as Madam comes. The young master will be saved! Thinking of this, Gao Shun quickened his pace.
"Mother and father!" Looking at the restless mother and father, Bao'er called softly.
"It's okay, let's eat, Bao'er!" With that said, Qiao Yindi hugged her son to the chair. He picked up the vegetables and put them in his child's bowl, but he was thinking about Chu Yang, for fear that the father and son would quarrel and his man would be punished by the master again!
"Father, tell me, will grandpa beat daddy?" Looking up at her mother and father, Bao'er asked uncertainly.
Hearing this, Qiao Yindi was stunned. "No, can't you?"
"But, grandpa beat daddy before. He didn't let daddy out of the yard!" Speaking of this, Bao'er pursed her lips, feeling that her daddy was wronged.
"How do you know? Who told you?" Looking at her son, Qiao Yindi asked curiously. Although, it's no secret that Youcai was slapped in the face by the master and then banned for three months. But shouldn't the son know
"Yes, it was Xiaotong's younger brother who told me. He said that grandpa is the fiercest person in the family. Even my father was beaten by him, and he was afraid of him. He also said that he was also very afraid of grandpa, and my father!" This, Xiaobao frowned unconsciously.
"Okay, let's eat, your father didn't make a mistake, your grandpa won't beat him!" Actually, Qiao Yindi was a little guilty when he said this, because he was afraid that the matter of tearing down the house in the west courtyard would offend the master. Huo, afraid that talented people will really be beaten!
"Oh!" Nodding, Gao Xiaobao then lowered his head and began to eat sullenly. The previous smile was no longer on his face.
