Chapter 260: Chapter 260: The Young Master’s Closest Blood Relative Finally Steps into Gu Garden’s Gates Again Chapter 260: Chapter 260: The Young Master’s Closest Blood Relative Finally Steps into Gu Garden’s Gates Again Those hands that were extended towards innocent women and children should have been chopped off long ago.
And the gang that did all the evil deeds, I hope they could be eradicated this time, to rid the people of nuisances.
Because it was too early, Gu Qiaoqiao slipped back into a groggy sleep.
It was Monday, those who worked went off to work, and those who studied went off to school.
Grandma Qin received a phone call and had no choice but to knock on Gu Qiaoqiao’s door.
Gu Qiaoqiao, with her big, sparkling eyes, looked dazedly at Grandma Qin.
Her face was still flushed from just having woken up.
Which made Grandma Qin dote on her dearly for a while.
Only then did she tell Gu Qiaoqiao that Gu Qingfeng had called and asked Uncle Gu to pick her up in half an hour to go to Gu Garden.
The place where her grandfather was born and grew up?
Gu Qiaoqiao hurried to get ready, and after washing up, Grandma Qin had already placed breakfast on the dining table.
Gu Qiaoqiao had something on her mind and wasn’t hungry but still ended up eating a tea egg, a small steamed bun, and a bowl of rice porridge, half-forced by Grandma Qin.
By the time she finished eating, Uncle Gu had arrived.
Grandma Qin let Uncle Gu take Qiaoqiao away with a beaming smile.
Afterward, the smile gradually faded from her face.
She furrowed her brows and sighed softly.
This was the first time she had entered while Gu Qiaoqiao was still in bed.
After all, it was the newlyweds’ bedroom.
Today, she had gone to wake Gu Qiaoqiao up because the Old Patriarch had called.
She had thought Gu Qiaoqiao was staying in bed late because she was tired from last night.
But what she had just seen wasn’t the case.
Even though Ah Ze got up early, she had lived long enough to tell whether the big bed was slept in by one person or two.
To her surprise, Ah Ze and Qiaoqiao hadn’t slept together.
So, had they not consummated the marriage?
At breakfast, the old lady looked at the youthful face and thought for a moment, but still didn’t ask.
Let it be, it’s young people’s business, she shouldn’t meddle.
Anyway, Ah Ze is a sensible kid.
Such a good girl like Qiaoqiao, he definitely likes her.
After all, they are both young, and Qiaoqiao just turned nineteen after the New Year, it’s a bit early for her to be a mother.
Coming to this critical realization, Grandma Qin no longer worried and went out for a walk.
By now, Gu Qiaoqiao had already arrived at Gu Garden.
She had been there once before.
But it was from a hidden spot, watching from a distance.
This time, she stood right at the great entrance to Gu Garden, openly and squarely.
She knew that Ning Wanru and the Old Patriarch were not living together.
Only Gu Qingfeng and Uncle Gu were there, along with a few old servants of the Gu family.
Though they were said to be serving, they were actually in retirement.
Uncle Gu’s face was full of smiles, yet his eyes were moist.
Fifty years had passed, and this Gu Garden, standing through the vicissitudes of over a century, had not welcomed back its young master.
Yet, it welcomed the young master’s granddaughter.
However, in a way, the young master had returned home.
Fifty years had gone by, and the young master’s closest blood relative had once again stepped through the grand gates of Gu Garden.
How could he not be overwhelmed with emotion!
Gu Qiaoqiao stood at the entrance, the yard was very large.
It was even larger than the Qin Family Old Residence.
It was the type that one often sees in TV dramas in terms of layout and architecture.
In the yard, there was a flower bed, and in the corner of the walls stood tall locust trees.
Behind the Moon Gate, it seemed to be bright with splendid colors.
Gu Qingfeng, leaning on his cane, stood in the center of the courtyard, facing Gu Qiaoqiao.
Actually, according to his personality, he would have waited inside the house.
But he couldn’t wait.
Returning yesterday, he too had tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
When he was only half-believing before, he had not felt this way.
But how could his heart be calm now that everything was settled?
