Tang Yun knew that the flowers and plants in the yard, the Osmanthus tree, and even that clump of bamboo were all Gu Xiyue's treasures.
Nobody was allowed to touch them; whoever did would be out of luck.
A year ago, a youth from the village accidentally broke one of her branches and ended up getting his hand broken by her, which took nearly half a year to heal.
She knew that Gu Zhiqi and Gu Xiyue did not get along.
If Gu Zhiqi really did touch Gu Xiyue's flowers and plants, when Gu Xiyue went crazy, on the Gu Family's side...
Upon hearing Tang Yun's reminder, Gu Zhiqi responded with a disinterested and lazy tone.
Her manner appeared so casual and perfunctory that it made Tang Yun frown slightly.
However, she did not say anything more and turned to leave to look for someone.
After looking at the tree, Gu Zhiqi walked over to the flower bed and surveyed all the flower beds in the yard.
Finally, she stopped in front of one flower bed.
"Mama, you're back..."
Not seeing the familiar figure in the yard, the child stopped the rest of his sentence.
Then he looked at the person standing under the Osmanthus tree in the yard with a wary face.
"Who... who are you?"
The child's voice was milky, soft, and tender, laced with a hint of caution.
Gu Zhiqi turned her head and glanced at the child.
She turned back to continue watching the ants on the tree trunk.
When Gu Zhiqi turned her head, the child got a clear look at her face. He blinked his eyes, then trotted over to Gu Zhiqi with his short legs, thudding along.
He tilted his head slightly backward, grabbed onto the tree trunk, and peeked out from behind the tree, half his head showing, "Sister, are you Gu Zhiqi?"
Gu Zhiqi raised an eyebrow and looked at the child.
"I know you." The child gripped the tree trunk, batting his clear, innocent big eyes and started to speak in his milky voice.
Gu Zhiqi no longer watched the ants, instead focusing on the little brat.
"My brother says you always hurt Sister Yueyue." The little brat said, glancing at Gu Zhiqi with a timid look.
The original body really had a notorious reputation, huh.
"You are naughty, a bad sister." The child stared at Gu Zhiqi pleadingly.
"But, you're pretty."
"Even though you're bad, you're still my sister."
Gu Zhiqi laughed, propped her elbow on the tree trunk, crossed her legs, and leaned carelessly against the tree, an air of casual playfulness in her features, "I'm not your sister."
The child blinked again, a trace of confusion in his eyes, "Aren't you Gu Zhiqi?"
"I am your grandfather." Gu Zhiqi said, curving her lips slightly in a face of irreverence, "Come on, call me Master Zhi."
His face full of confusion and bewilderment.
"Chengcheng, have you come back?" Tang Yun's voice came from the doorway.
Hearing this, the child dashed over to Tang Yun.
Gu Chengcheng hugged Tang Yun's thigh and affectionately rubbed against it.
Tang Yun raised her hand and affectionately patted his little head, "Why are you all sweaty, where's the key?"
Children like to run around, she had been to several homes and couldn't find Gu Chengcheng.
Finally, she ran into a neighbor who was going to the field and was told that Gu Chengcheng had already gone home.
Only then did she return.
Gu Chengcheng fished in his pocket and took out the key to give to Tang Yun, then looked up at her with a smile of innocence on his face, "Mama, I have a grandfather now."
Gu Chengcheng turned his head slightly and pointed with his small hand at Gu Zhiqi under the tree, "That's my Master Zhi."
After a long silence, Tang Yun stared at Gu Zhiqi for a few seconds, then finally slapped Gu Chengcheng on the back, "Don't call out nonsense, that's your sister. You should call her Eldest Sister Qiqi from now on."
