Chapter 549: Every family has a hard-to-read scripture
Chapter 549: Every family has its own sutras that are difficult to recite
"Yan'er, be good, go back to the house quickly!"
Gao Heng did not dare to let his son continue to talk nonsense. While coaxing him, he winked at the maid and signaled her to take his son away quickly.
Gao Yan was reluctant to leave. While being pulled away by the maid, he stretched his neck and shouted: "Sister, I also want to play hide and seek. Can you let me play with you?"
"What are you playing for? Go back to the house!"
Gao Heng glared at his son angrily, and Gao Yan immediately didn't dare to say anything, and was dragged away by the maid obediently.
After the people disappeared, Gao Heng turned around and solemnly apologized to Chai Yan and Yuan Yuan: "I have offended you very much, I hope you can forgive me!"
After saying that, Gao Heng bowed deeply.
Ever since Gao Heng learned about Chai Yan's true identity, Gao Heng's mentality changed when facing Chai Yan. The most appropriate way to describe it is to walk on thin ice.
Chai Yan naturally felt this and said, "Uncle Gao, you don't have to be afraid, we are not as scary as you think!"
Yuan Yuan did not speak, but stood quietly beside Chai Yan, not knowing what he was thinking in his heart.
Gao Heng looked at Chai Yan hesitantly, then immediately avoided his eyes, turned sideways and said respectfully to the two of them: "You two, please..."
"Please!" Chai Yan also said.
Then, the three of them continued to walk to the side hall.
When they arrived at the side hall, Mrs. Gao was making arrangements inside. The table had already been set with bowls, chopsticks and wine, but the dishes had not been served yet.
Mrs. Gao heard the noise, turned around and saw that someone had arrived, and immediately came out to greet her.
Madam Gao was stunned for a moment by Chai Yan who had changed his clothes, but Madam Gao immediately recovered and said enthusiastically: "Mr. Mu, Madam Mu, please take a seat quickly, please...
"
Although Mrs. Gao was all smiles, enthusiastic and joyful, she still couldn't hide a trace of embarrassment.
With a smile, Chai Yan cupped his hands and said, "Mrs. Gao, my wife and I have had many offenses before. I hope she won't take the blame..."
"Don't dare, don't dare..." Mrs. Gao blurted out.
Suddenly, she found that her husband was winking at her. Mrs. Gao immediately realized that what she said was inappropriate, so she hurriedly changed her words: "No, no... no blame, no blame..."
It was obvious that Mrs. Gao was still afraid of the two of them and spoke unnaturally.
Gao Heng hurriedly changed the subject: "Madam, go and order the servants to serve the dishes."
"Ah...yes, sir..."
Before Chai Yan and Yu Yuan could sit down, Mrs. Gao hurriedly ordered her servants to serve the dishes, as if she was afraid of neglecting them and causing trouble.
After a while, the maids filled the table with rich dishes, which was enough for ten people, not to mention four people.
"Uncle Gao, there's no need to be so rich..."
How could Chai Yan not know Gao Heng's mentality?
Gao Hengdui smiled and said: "This is the Chinese New Year, it should be, it should be..."
"Yes, yes, it's the Chinese New Year, that's right..." Mrs. Gao sat next to her husband and nodded in agreement.
"You guys, all go down..."
Gao Heng evacuated all the maids in the side hall with a wave of his hand, then stood up and poured wine for Chai Yan and Yuan Yuan himself.
Next, Gao Heng and his wife toasted and apologized, saying flattering words back and forth, which made Chai Yan and Yuan Yuan's ears almost become calloused.
Chai Yanqi could bear it, but Yuanyuan didn't want to hear this anymore, so he asked Gao Heng: "Do you only have a son? He has no brothers or sisters?"
Gao Heng was slightly stunned, wondering why she brought the topic to this.
Gao Heng was reluctant to answer, and then said with a sad face: "Mrs. Mu, our family is unfortunate. Yan'er originally had a younger sister, but she died when she was young. If she is still alive, she would be thirteen or fourteen years old...
"
When her husband mentioned sad things, Mrs. Gao also had a look of sadness on her face.
Yuanyuan said: "Seeing his son just now reminded me of a child in the village who looked like him when I was a child. He had grown taller, but his brain was still that of a child. He was always bullied by people younger than him.
..."
Mrs. Gao was shocked and couldn't help but look at her husband and asked in a low voice: "Master, just now..."
Gao Heng hurriedly frowned and shook his head to stop Mrs. Gao's words. He didn't want to talk about what happened just now.
Chai Yan then asked: "Uncle Gao, has Yan'er always been like this?"
Gao Heng nodded slowly and said in a low voice: "Yan'er looked pretty good when he was three or four years old, but after a few years, when he was seven or eight years old, he became different from other children, and he still looks very good until now.
I'm seventeen, but my brain is still like that of a four or five-year-old child... Alas, I, Gao Heng, don't know what evil I did in my previous life. My son is a fool and my daughter is gone...
"
Mrs. Gao took out a handkerchief and printed the corners of her eyes, and said with red eyes: "Master, don't mention the past anymore..."
"Okay, don't mention it, don't mention it..." Gao Heng's eyes were also moist.
Mrs. Gao immediately cheered up and greeted warmly: "Come, come, let's all eat..."
While they were eating, a boy came to see Mrs. Gao outside, saying that the young master was crying and yelling in the house. He couldn't stop her, and kept shouting that he wanted to play hide-and-seek with his sister.
"Sister? Hide and seek?" Mrs. Gao was puzzled. Suddenly, a sister appeared out of nowhere?
But Gao Heng knew what was going on, and had no time to explain at the moment, so he said anxiously: "Madam, go and see Yan'er quickly, don't let him cry anymore!"
Mrs. Gao hurriedly stood up and left the table. After taking two steps, she suddenly remembered that she had not greeted the guests, so she turned around and came back to apologize: "I'm sorry, Mr. Mu, Mrs. Mu, please take it easy, I'll be right back..."
Chai Yan and Yu Yuan nodded in unison, how could they have any opinions on this matter.
After Mrs. Gao left with the boy, the worried look on Gao Heng's face did not dissipate.
Because Gao Heng was so worried about his silly son, Rende Pharmacy would give free medicine to poor people every once in a while, and would also set up a porridge shed in times of disaster, hence the name Gao Heng.
After a while, another boy came to report, saying that Mrs. Gao not only failed to persuade the young master, but the young master cried even more fiercely, and still shouted that he wanted to play hide and seek with his sister.
"Nonsense, nonsense!" Gao Heng stomped his feet angrily after hearing this, and then apologized: "You two, I'm really sorry, I still have to..."
Chai Yan raised his hand to stop Gao Heng from continuing, and said reasonably: "It's okay, Uncle Gao, go quickly!"
Gao Heng bowed gratefully and hurriedly left the side hall.
Looking at Gao Heng's leaving figure, Chai Yan couldn't help but sigh: "Every family has sutras that are difficult to recite!"
After saying that, Chai Yan turned to look at Yuan Yuan. He found Yuan Yuan frowning slightly and thinking about something, so he asked softly: "Madam, what's wrong with you?"
Yuan immediately turned around and looked at Chai Yan: "Ms. sir, why don't we go and have a look too..."
Chai Yan understood as soon as he saw her face and asked, "Do you want to take him to play hide and seek?"
Yuan hesitated for a moment, then nodded and asked, "Is that okay?"
"Okay, of course!" Chai Yan nodded happily: "My wife is willing to help others, how can your husband object?"
