Chapter 376: Chapter 377: I’m Going to Kill You

Chen Jianjun was burning with a mix of anxiety and regret. He wanted to shout out, but knew this was neither the time nor the place, and the old man’s identity must not be casually revealed!

A sense of loss flickered in his eyes.

He had finally gotten the chance to see the old man and yet, he hadn’t been able to exchange a single word. What a shame!

Unexpectedly, Gu Lao shifted his gaze towards him and said profoundly, "Young man, you have been working hard."

Last month, Tingyun mentioned in a letter that Guibao’s father had returned home after being wounded and discharged from the army.

In the younger generation of the family, he could easily tell who had been on the battlefield with just one glance.

Chen Jianjun eyes welled up at those brief words, and he nodded with a firm attitude, replying, "I am not suffering. It is all of you who have suffered most!"

The older generation, like Gu Lao, had dedicated their whole life to building up the nation.

Gu Lao said nothing more, just raised his hand and patted his shoulder.

Chen Jianjun was so thrilled. This was the garment the old gentleman touched, which he would take off to properly store when he got home.

The rest of the Chen Family watched in confusion, utterly clueless about their conversation.

Did Chen Jianjun know Gu Lao before?

Meanwhile, Li Chunhua was indignant after Chen Jianye dragged her out, asking, "Why did we have to leave? Didn’t you see how much Gu Lao likes our Jinbao?"

Jinbao was so appealing, with his fair skin and sweet smiles when he looked at people.

She believed that if Jinbao could make more appearances in front of Gu Lao, he would win his affection before long.

Chen Jianye, without stopping, replied, "Didn’t you see mother’s expression just now? If we stay any longer, she’ll scold you when we get back!"

Hearing this, Li Chunhua complained, "I’m sure mom is afraid that the Gu Family might fall in love with Jinbao, start to dislike Guibao, and think he is a liability. That’s why she doesn’t want Jinbao to be more visible."

His in-laws just cannot bear to see their family prosper!

Even if Chunhua could put up with it all and still believe their younger son was lucky, he couldn’t agree with her this time, "Didn’t you see today? Which of the Gu family’s grandchildren aren’t better than our son? Why would they dote on Jinbao?"

Look how each of the children is courteous and adorable, unlike Xiaobao, who lacks manners and decency.

Thinking of his eldest son’s behavior at dinner, he got angry and said, "Xiaobao, hand over the red envelope!"

Chen Xiaobao, who was thrilled about receiving the red envelope and planning to buy snacks and toys, covered his pocket and said, "No!"

"If you disobey me, I will beat the hell out of you!" Chen Jianye said angrily, rolling up his sleeves, ready to strike.

He had to teach this naughty boy a good lesson today. Otherwise, he feared the boy would behave like Guibao and dare to defy him in the future.

Li Chunhua immediately held his arm and shouted to Chen Xiaobao, "Xiaobao, hurry up and give the red envelope to dad."

Seeing that Chen Jianye was really going to hit him, Chen Xiaobao reluctantly took the red envelope out of his pocket and handed it over.

When Chen Jianye opened it, it was unexpectedly packed with exactly three yuan!

Li Chunhua caught sight of it and her eyes glittered at once.

They had a total of ten children at home. With three yuan per red envelope, that meant thirty yuan in total!

This thirty yuan, handed out so casually as a greeting gift to the children by Gu Lao, how much money must he have!

Thinking of this, she was even more determined to get Jinbao to ingratiate himself with Gu Lao.

If Jinbao could please Gu Lao, they would never lack for good things in the future!
