Chapter 39 Photos
Tomorrow is the old lady's birthday. All the elders will come back. The servants in the old house have begun preparations and the house will be cleaned from inside to outside.

There seems to be something wrong between Gu Chuan and Song Xueying recently. Everyone can see it, and the old lady is a little worried.

"Gu Chuan has been a taciturn person since he was young. I don't know if he can comfort a girl when she is angry."

Chu Yan smiled: "They will be fine."

Everyone knows that Gu Chuan loves Song Xueying very much. He has given so much for Song Xueying. Besides, they are engaged and will definitely not break up.

As a couple, it is normal to quarrel occasionally, and the relationship may become better after the quarrel.

The old lady could only hope that Gu Chuan could learn to adapt and not be stubborn forever. She sighed, "I used to worry about Gu Chuan. He always did everything according to his parents' arrangements. Would he know what he really wanted and what he really liked?"

Chu Yan listened quietly to the old lady's words.

The old lady smiled and said, "I heard that he is now able to be with Yaoyao because of his own efforts. It shows that my previous worries were unnecessary."

Chu Yan agreed with a smile, "Yes, I guess they will get married soon, and then grandma will have a great-grandson."

"That would be great."

The weather was nice today, and the old lady deliberately said that the flowers on the back hill were in full bloom, and asked Gu Chuan to take Song Xueying for a walk. In fact, it was also to create an opportunity for them to reconcile.

Chu Yan sat on the bench in the courtyard and chatted with the old lady.

The old lady flipped open a photo album in her hand and said, "I have photos of my two children when they were little."

Chu Yan was very interested.

On the page of the album, there was an old photo. It must have been taken at a birthday party, because a boy was wearing a crown with the words "Happy Birthday" on his head.

But he just stood straight, with no expression on his face, and he didn't look as happy as other children on their birthdays.

Chu Yan felt a sense of freshness, "This must be Cousin Gu, right?"

The old lady smiled and said, "Yes, he loved to act serious and rigid when he was little. He became even more like a wooden man when he grew up."

Indeed, just from the photo, one can feel the cool temperament of the little boy.

Chu Yan quickly looked at another photo, "This is Shen Xing!"

Shen Xing in the photo looks younger than Gu Chuan. His face and clothes are covered with cake cream. He is being held by his father's waist, and his father is spanking him mercilessly.

The photo captured the moment when he was screaming and yelling, but when Chu Yan looked at the photo, her mind already emerged with his moving appearance. What the old lady said before was right, he was just like a naughty monkey.

"These two kids have two extreme personalities. Gu Chuan is too quiet, while Shen Xing is too noisy. If Shen Xing's mischief could distract Gu Chuan a little, we'd be thankful."

It is no exaggeration to say that Gu Chuan is the child of other people's families in the eyes of the elders, and Shen Xing is truly hated by everyone. But one day, Shen Xing actually started to study hard and said that he wanted to be admitted to the university that Gu Chuan studied. This was simply astonishing. But Shen Xing really got admitted to Gu Chuan's university, which made Shen Xing's parents very grateful to Gu Chuan. They all felt that it was the role of Gu Chuan as a role model that made Shen Xing return to the right path.

Chu Yan couldn't help but look up and saw Shen Xing helping the gardener prune branches.

His hair color was really bright, and she could always tell where he was at a glance.

Shen Xing was not arrogant or pretentious, and he could get along with everyone. Of course, he did not work for nothing. After helping the gardener, he ran over with some beautiful red roses.

"Grandma, this is for you!"

The old lady laughed, "You gave me the flowers from my yard. What's the logic behind that?"

Shen Xing was not embarrassed, "It's mainly to show your grandson's love."

"I think you want to give flowers to someone else, and I'm just passing by."

Shen Xing's thoughts were exposed. He secretly glanced at Chu Yan. Chu Yan smiled back. He cleared his throat and said seriously, "Grandma, your grandson wants to honor you, why do you keep talking bad about him? You don't even give him some face in front of his girlfriend."

"Okay, okay, I'll save some face for my grandson." The old lady took the rose, picked up the photo album and stood up. "I'm old, and I want to sleep after sitting for a while. I won't disturb you young people's love. I'm going to rest."

The maid accompanied the old lady back. Halfway through the walk, the old lady looked back and happened to see Shen Xing handing the bouquet of roses hidden behind him to the girl. The girl's fair face was reflected by the red of the roses, which was very beautiful.

Young is good.

The old lady walked into the house with a kind smile.

Chu Yan was of course happy to receive the beautiful flowers, but she was also embarrassed, "Don't do this in front of grandma, what if grandma is unhappy?"

"Of course grandma will be happy." Shen Xing sat down next to Chu Yan, squeezed together with her, lowered his head, and looked at her with a smile, "Grandma will only feel very happy to see that my future wife and I have a good relationship."

Shen Xing's grandfather was the predecessor of a family that had been passed down for hundreds of years. He met Shen Xing's grandmother when he was studying abroad. At that time, his grandmother hid her identity as a rich girl in her country and studied abroad as an ordinary person, but Shen Xing's grandfather just fell in love with her.

The Gu family prides itself on having a long heritage and many rules. Even in the new era, they still follow the old ways and emphasize matching up with each other. Of course, they forced them to separate, but Shen Xing's grandfather was no pushover. He even said that he had the ability and could just take Shen Xing's grandmother and start their own business outside. This scared the old scholars in the Gu family.

Later, the identity of Shen Xing's grandmother was revealed. She was the eldest daughter of the Zhou family, who made her fortune in the watch business. Those voices of opposition disappeared without a trace.

Shen Xing put his hand on the back of the chair, and Chu Yan naturally leaned on him. She looked at the beautiful roses in her arms and said with emotion, "Your grandpa is luckier than your cousin."

People in different circles have different rules of conduct. If my grandmother was not the eldest daughter of the Zhou family, no one knows how far my grandfather and her would go.

Shen Xing touched Chu Yan's soft hair and smiled: "So when my cousin disobeyed the entire Gu family for Miss Song, my mother still said that he was very much like grandpa."

Chu Yan suddenly asked: "There are so many rules in your big family, why haven't we ever been separated by anyone using the rules to force us to be together?"

"We in the Shen family don't have that kind of mentality." Shen Xing was afraid that she would think too much, so he quickly said, "My father is an academic. He teaches and educates people, but he doesn't have that kind of feudal ideology."
