Seeing that the guard did not reply to the message, Gao Yuanshan finally relaxed.

He knew that this guy must have acted secretly.

Soon, Gao Tianlu poured a pot of tea over.

Logically speaking, their Gao family is one of the nine great families and should pay more attention to things like red tape, but Gao Tianlu survived the era of border wars, so he does not have the arrogance of those families. Instead, he looks more like a commoner.

I guess if he walked on the street, no one would recognize that he was the former commander of the God of War Palace.

So after Gao Yuanshan came to him, he did not take the initiative to make tea. Instead, he felt his grandfather's love for him like a real grandson.

"Here, this is the Da Hong Pao that my old comrade brought me. Drink it quickly and get out of here quickly. Don't delay me from fishing."

Gao Yuanshan narrowed his eyes when he heard this: "Grandpa, I haven't been to your place for a year. Are you in such a hurry to get rid of me?"

"Whether I chase you away or not, aren't you going to Jiangnan for the New Year?"

Gao Tianlu snorted, then sat opposite Gao Yuanshan, "Where is Leng Mei? Where did that little girl go?"

Gao Yuanshan: "Ever since I married her, my grandmother and mother won't let her into the house. How dare she come to see you?"

"So where is she now?"

"I've already returned to Jiangnan."

Gao Yuanshan said truthfully.

Gao Tianlu snorted: "It's been so many years, and she still can't let go of that thing."

"She can't let go, and neither can I."

"How can you expect her to let it go after what her grandmother and mother did to her?"

Looking at Gao Yuanshan's lowered head, Gao Tianlu snorted again: "So you don't spend the New Year at home every year, and go to Jiangnan with her?"

"Your grandma came over a couple of days ago. She said she hopes you'll be home for the New Year this year."

Hearing this, Gao Yuanshan shrugged: "My grandma still cares about me? I thought that since the incident between my sister and Leng Mei, she no longer had us in her heart."

Gao Yuanshan's tone was very stubborn. When he was a child, if he got upset, he could only find a corner and cry for a whole day. Now, he has the strength to fight against this family. At worst, he will just not be a member of the Gao family.

Looking at Gao Yuanshan's appearance, Gao Tianlu sighed softly: "Yuanshan, you... are actually very similar to your grandmother. You both have stubborn tempers."

"But we are a family, what conflicts can't be resolved?"

Hearing this, Gao Yuanshan chuckled: "When I was a child, my grandmother favored boys over girls and sent her to the gray area despite my sister's objections. Why didn't you say we were a family at that time?"

"When I told her I wanted to marry Lengmei, she smashed everything in the house just to prevent Qu Lengmei from coming in. Did she ever consider me a family member at that time?"

"Now that my sister has secured her position as the head of the Intelligence Bureau with her own strength, she wants to bring my sister back."

"I really want to laugh! Does grandma ever treat my sister and me as family?"

"I think we are just a pawn in her hand, a pawn to consolidate the Gao family's position."

At this point, Gao Yuanshan picked up the tea on the table and took a sip. "If it weren't for you and my dad, I might have become like my sister and no longer have the surname Gao."

"Hey, forget it."

"It was really a mistake for me to hand over the Gao family to your grandmother at that time. Grandpa was also wrong."

Gao Tianlu quickly changed the subject, "Since you are going back to Jiangnan for the New Year, then go there. We are used to not having you around these years anyway."

"As for your sister and Leng Mei, when you return to Longcheng after the New Year, I will go out to see them. I am an old man with one foot almost in the ground, so they won't refuse to see me."

"Of course not, they still respect you very much."

Gao Yuanshan chuckled.

If Gao Tianlu had not secretly helped himself and his sister, he would not have been able to take the position of commander of the God of War Mansion, and Jiang Li would have died in the gray area training camp long ago.

"By the way, I also have a great-grandson, Su Hong."

"After the New Year, can you bring it to me? I don't have any other wishes in this life. I can see my descendants before I die. It can be considered as fulfilling my wish."

After hearing this, Gao Yuanshan nodded: "The reason we have been in Jiangnan these years is mostly because of Xiaohong."

"Leng Mei and I have no children, so all our hopes are placed on him."

"So...is he well now?"

Gao Yuanshan: "I went to see Dr. Xue that year and he was cured, but he still absorbed some of the medicine. I don't know if it will have any impact in the future."

Gao Tianlu responded calmly: "I hope nothing happens."

"After all, this child is the only bloodline of our Gao family."

Then, a brief silence fell between the two of them. It seemed that this was the way it was between men. Apart from family matters, there was nothing else to talk about.

After a while, Gao Yuanshan thought it was about time, so he drank the Da Hong Pao in his hand and stood up: "Grandpa, this is the last time I'll see you before the New Year. I'm leaving now."

"We'll contact you when we come back after the New Year."

"Well, let's go."

Gao Tianlu smiled and didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

So Gao Yuanshan slipped away quickly, and Gao Tianlu started tinkering with his fish pond again.

When he was thinking about the things that happened in the past with a guilty conscience, he happened to pass by a wet fish pond. When he saw the scene in front of him, the guilt in his heart disappeared instantly, and he jumped up and chased after him.

Unfortunately, there is no trace of Gao Yuanshan outside.

"My golden carp!"

"That's an ornamental fish. You can't eat it. It doesn't taste good!"

Gao Tianlu felt like the sky was falling...

On the other side, Gao Yuanshan stared with wide eyes at several large golden carps placed in a large bucket.

"No, Xiao Zhao, this is the carp you stole?"

Xiao Zhao chuckled and said, "Yes, I followed the commander's description and went to the easternmost fish pond. There were golden and red fish in it. I thought the golden one must be better, so I took the golden one."

"I'm reliable!"

Xiao Zhao felt that he was sure to be promoted this time, so he immediately came forward to claim credit, but unfortunately, what he got was a big competition.

"You're such a fucking idiot."

"Golden carp are ornamental fish, not delicious!"

“Those red carp are delicious!”

Gao Yuanshan felt like the sky had fallen at this moment. Damn it, he finally found an opportunity to have someone steal fish, but he didn't expect that some inedible fish were stolen!

"So what should we do now? Should we go back secretly and change it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the guard was hit with a big beating: "Switch, switch your uncle! The old man must have found out. If I go back now, not only you, but I will also be beaten to death!"
