The villain is too crazy, the little ancestor is not going to do it anymore
Chapter 95 My Mother's Name is Jiang Lan
Gu Ranle raised one eyebrow slightly, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
But there was no warmth in that smile; it was like the unmelted frost in the dawn of winter, cold and distant, making it difficult to approach.
"Maybe," she said slowly, her voice calm and direct, each word was like a carefully carved ice blade, accurately piercing the other's fragile self-esteem, "However, it is better to be favored by the elders than some people, who are not good-looking and can't even say a kind word."
"You! What right do you have to say that to me!"
The woman was enraged, her voice so sharp that it almost tore the air.
She took a step forward and wanted to grab Gu Ranle's collar, but Gu Ranle dodged her attack with a light movement and pushed her away with irresistible force.
"Do not touch me."
The voice was cold and resolute, without any emotional fluctuations, as if it was maintaining an inviolable boundary.
The woman lost her balance, staggered a few steps, and finally bumped into the person behind her, only then was she able to stand firmly.
"Ms. Gu, you really think of yourself as a member of the Luo family!"
The person who spoke was the woman's younger brother, who was about thirty years old. As soon as he opened his mouth, his tone was full of hostility and provocation.
"Please Miss Gu, please understand that this is the capital, not Gucheng!"
He sneered and glanced at Gu Ranle from head to toe with malicious eyes.
"What? Gucheng can't tolerate you, so you run to the capital to act wild? This is not a place for you to act wild!"
Gu Ranle really didn't want to get involved in these messes.
Especially this kind of infighting among wealthy families, which looks glamorous on the surface but is dirty and dark behind the scenes.
But since she has accepted Mr. Luo as the patient, she cannot give up just because of some problems. This is not her style.
She shook her head slightly, a playful smile on her lips.
"Your vision seems to be only broad enough to accommodate regional narrowness and boring speculation. As for the word 'wild', it is nothing more than a projection of your inner fear of my influence. My arrival obviously made you feel an unprecedented threat, so much so that you were eager to use this clumsy way to belittle me in an attempt to regain a trace of pitiful self-esteem, but this just exposed your inner fear and anxiety."
After a slight pause, she leaned forward slightly, looking directly at the other person, with a hint of oppression in her tone.
"So, what are you afraid of? Are you worried that I will reveal some facts that you don't want to face, or do you have something to hide that makes you so eager to fight back?"
The man's face turned pale and his eyes flickered, but soon he tightened his face and raised his voice a few degrees, trying to hide his uneasiness.
"What a joke! What am I afraid of? But you suddenly showed up in my house. What on earth are you up to?"
However, although his voice was loud, it could not hide the trembling in it. He was like a fallen leaf in the cold wind, trying to prove his existence with his last stubbornness.
Gu Ranle noticed this keenly, and a deeper smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"What's your intention?" She repeated softly, her eyes as sharp as a torch, as if she could see into the deepest secrets of people's hearts. "Don't you already have the answer in your heart?"
"You, you really are here to fight for the family property!"
The man also realized that he had said something wrong. His face turned pale and blue. He tried desperately to make amends, but his words were like a stuck tape and could not form a sentence.
He slapped his mouth in frustration, trying to take back the words that had already come out.
But to no avail.
Gu Ranle smiled slightly and said slowly: "Grandpa is still alive and well, are you all planning to divide the family property?"
She tilted her head to look at Fu Hanting, "Brother, you have to send more people to protect Grandpa. I'm worried that someone will lose their conscience and murder Grandpa for the sake of the family property."
Fu Hanting nodded, "Okay, I'll arrange it right away."
"You uneducated little girl, stop talking nonsense here!" Aunt Luo saw that the situation was not favorable for their family, and immediately scolded them, and then said, "Forget about not letting us see the old man, let's go!"
Uncle Luo didn't want to leave, so Aunt Luo pushed him away.
The family of five didn't get any benefit at all, nor did they get to see Mr. Luo, so they left in disgrace.
Gu Ranle glanced at Fu Hanting, said nothing, yawned, and turned back to the house.
Mr. Luo was awake for a while in the afternoon. He did not take the previous medicine and did not look as energetic as when he was awake yesterday.
"Boss, Grandpa really likes that girl. If you are interested, how about Grandpa personally matchmaking you two?"
Mr. Luo was thinking about his eldest grandson's wife and was afraid that someone would snatch her away.
Hearing this, Fu Hanting's mouth twitched slightly, "Grandpa, she already has a boyfriend."
Mr. Luo glared, "He's just a fiancé. As long as you're not married, you still have a chance!"
"I'm really not interested in her." Fu Hanting said helplessly.
"Are you really not interested or are you afraid that you won't be able to compete with her fiancé?"
Mr. Luo looked like he understood everything about the world, and the word "I understand" was almost written on his face.
Fu Hanting did not comment, but instead picked up the bowl of Chinese medicine prepared according to the recipe given by Gu Ranle, tested the temperature, and handed it to the old man.
This medicine makes my heart tremble just by smelling it.
The old man took a sip and his face twisted instantly, "Oh my, are you going to make me, an old man, suffer?"
"Good medicine tastes bitter but is good for the disease." Fu Hanting said seriously.
"No, no, it's too bitter. I need to eat something sweet to slow down the process!" Old Man Luo put the medicine on the table, like a child being coaxed into taking medicine.
Who could have imagined that this prominent figure who had been active in the political and business circles for decades was actually an old man who was particularly afraid of taking medicine.
I have to eat a piece of candy every time I take medicine, otherwise I won’t take it.
But this time, Fu Hanting didn't indulge him. "Your granddaughter specifically told me that you can't eat candy when taking medicine in the future."
Mr. Luo looked suspicious. "That girl is gentle and kind-hearted. How could she make such a 'cruel' instruction? You must be lying to me. Bring me a piece of candy!"
Fu Hanting remained calm, but his next words became even more "cruel".
"She also told me that if you don't drink it, I will force you to drink it."
When Mr. Luo heard this, his mouth opened into an "o" shape, obviously shocked. It took him a long time to find his voice.
"This...this absolutely cannot be what she said!"
"Don't believe it? Then I'll call her over and you can ask her in person." Fu Hanting pretended to leave and added leisurely, "But if she saw you acting like a spoiled child, who knows what she would say about the men in our family."
When Mr. Luo heard this, he became very anxious.
It's a small matter to embarrass yourself, but you can't let your grandchildren's image be affected, not to mention that it may also affect your future chances of finding grandchildren's wives.
"Forget it, forget it. I'll trust you this time!"
Mr. Luo gritted his teeth, picked up the medicine bowl resolutely, and drank it in one go. The bitterness spread from the tip of his tongue to the bottom of his heart.
In order to dispel the unbearable taste, he spoke impatiently before he had completely swallowed the medicine in his mouth: "Boss, time is tight and the task is arduous. You have to go all out! Grandpa has confidence in you. With your extraordinary charm, conquering that little girl will be easy and fun!"
At this point, his tone paused slightly, and a solemn look appeared on his face.
"Big Boss, my greatest wish in this life is to witness you getting married and having children before I die. When I was your age, your father was already in his teens, and you still don't even have a girlfriend."
He sighed and continued, "Grandpa's illness is caused by you careless grandchildren. Look at the Jiang family. Although they don't have many grandchildren, they have two great-grandchildren! As for me, I haven't even seen the shadow of my granddaughter-in-law yet. It's really pitiful!"
After that, he waved his hands weakly, slid slowly to the edge of the bed, pulled up the quilt to cover his face, and his voice came out from between the quilt.
"Go out and leave me, an old man, alone."
"You should have a good rest." Fu Hanting responded softly, put away the medicine bowl, turned around and left the room.
As soon as I opened the door, the door lock of the next room made a slight sound and opened from the inside out.
Fu Hanting couldn't help but glance sideways, only to see Gu Ranle rubbing his sleepy eyes and walking out of the room yawning.
"Good afternoon, big brother." Gu Ranle greeted him with a sleepy smile on his face, "Is Grandpa awake? I'll go see Grandpa."
"He just woke up and is in a bad mood. You can talk to him." Fu Hanting responded.
Gu Ranle nodded, and another yawn came unexpectedly.
"Brother, what are we having for dinner? I want to eat braised pig's trotters, crispy duck, and pickled fish."
"Okay, we'll have everything you want to eat." Fu Hanting agreed in a gentle voice.
Gu Ranle walked into Mr. Luo’s room and closed the door.
When the old man heard her voice, he immediately sat up from the bed with full energy, "Little girl, you are here?"
"How do you feel?" Gu Ranle asked with concern.
"Once I saw you, I felt like I could live another ten years!"
"Really? That would be great!"
Gu Ranle sat down on a chair beside the bed and took his pulse again.
"Eat well, sleep well, and have a good attitude. Don't lose your temper or get anxious, and your body will naturally be in good shape! I just ordered braised pig's trotters, crispy duck, and pickled fish. You can also eat some in the evening."
Mr. Luo was slightly stunned, "Are you sure?"
Ever since he fell ill, he has been restricted from eating meat. Even if he secretly takes a bite occasionally, he dares not swallow it all and has to spit out half of it.
So he expressed doubts about Gu Ranle's words.
He even began to doubt whether this little girl was really as skilled in medicine as his eldest grandson said. After all, she was too young.
"It's okay to eat moderately, but don't be greedy."
Mr. Luo licked his lips and said, "Little girl, what is the standard for appropriateness? Is half a bowl okay?"
Gu Ranle was amused by his appearance, "So greedy?"
"Alas! Little girl, you don't know that when I was healthy, I loved meat. But since I got sick, I have given it up."
Gu Ranle nodded to show her understanding.
For carnivorous animals, it is so painful to live without meat!
"Half a bowl is not enough. I'll arrange it for you in the evening. I guarantee that you can satisfy your craving without adding any burden to your body."
"Okay! Then I want to eat braised pork! My favorite!"
Gu Ranle raised her eyebrows and stretched out her hand, "My dear, I love braised pig's trotters the most, too."
The two chatted for a while and ate, then Mr. Luo fell asleep again.
Gu Ranle went downstairs for a stroll.
I met Luo Zekai again in the yard, but there was a tall and handsome man standing next to Luo Zekai.
"Hello, uncle."
Gu Ranle had a gentle smile on her face and was the first to break the silence.
The word "uncle" completely confused Luo Zekai.
She was indifferent to him and was on guard at noon, but now she took the initiative to show friendliness.
Is it acting or split personality?
"This must be the granddaughter that Grandpa Luo recognized, right?"
The man took the initiative to step forward and introduced himself politely, "Hello, my name is Jiang Jingxing, I'm here to see Grandpa Luo."
There was just the right amount of intimacy in his tone, but his eyes inadvertently lingered on Gu Ranle's face for a few seconds, as if he had discovered some shocking secret.
Gu Ranle responded politely, "Hello, Mr. Jiang. I'm so sorry. Grandpa just went to bed."
"It's okay. I'll come see him tomorrow." Jiang Jingxing's words revealed understanding, but his eyes were still fixed on Gu Ranle, as if he had a thousand words to say but couldn't. "Miss Gu, has anyone ever told you that you look like someone?"
"Oh? Who is it?" Gu Ranle pretended to be curious, with an imperceptible deep meaning flashing in his eyes.
"My aunt, Jiang Lan."
Jiang Jingxing's words were like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples.
Luo Zekai's pupils suddenly dilated, and fragments of memory quickly pieced together in his mind. No wonder he felt a sense of déjà vu when he saw her for the first time.
"Jiang Lan?" Gu Ranle pretended to be surprised, with a hint of inquiry in his tone.
Jiang Jingxing nodded, "Yes, have you heard of my aunt?"
"No," Gu Ranle shook her head, frowned slightly, and spoke slowly, "My father told me that my mother's name is Jiang Lan."
"!!!"
Having the same name and surname may not be uncommon, but when combined with a face that is strikingly similar to Jiang Lan, everything becomes unusual.
Luo Zekai was so shocked that he couldn't speak, his eyes fixed on Gu Ranle.
"So..." Jiang Jingxing's voice was a little trembling, "You are my aunt's daughter?"
Gu Ranle shook her head, her eyes full of confusion. "I don't know. I have never seen my mother since I was born. She left home when I was very young. I asked my father, but he didn't say much. I just heard that she eloped with someone, and that person seemed to be her first love."
Jiang Jingxing knew something vaguely about his aunt. His aunt fell in love with a poor boy, but his grandfather disagreed, so she eloped with him.
But he didn't know what happened in between.
The girl in front of me now is actually my aunt’s daughter!
Jiang Jingxing was filled with shock and surprise, and couldn't wait to tell his grandfather the news.
He quickly dialed the number, his voice unable to conceal his excitement and eagerness: "Uncle Jiang, it's me. I have something urgent to talk to Grandpa about. Yes, it's very important."
