Chapter 482: You Know Each Other?

He obviously recognized Gu Chonghua too!
The two old men faced each other, huffing and glaring at one another. They looked as if they despised each other.
Gu Chonghua looked disgusted, but he continued to examine Old Master Guo.
“How surprising to meet you again in this lifetime! We must be fated to meet!”
Old Master Guo immediately glared at him. “Who is fated to meet you? Hurry up and examine me. I don’t want to die! There is no one to take care of my wife.”
Gu Chonghua looked at the old woman who had already fainted. He sighed. Jiang Yiru had already attended to her because Old Master Guo had asked her to tend to his wife first.
Gu Chonghua treated Old Master Guo for a while before he breathed a sigh of relief. “You’ll be fine. Although you’re badly injured, none of the injuries is fatal. If you recuperate properly, you won’t die!”
Although Gu Chonghua spoke with a nasty tone, Old Master Guo heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s great! That’s great! As long as I can survive to take care of my wife, I won’t ask for anything else.”
Gu Chonghua asked, “How did the two of you end up here? Where have you been all these years?”
When Old Master Guo heard that, he glanced at Gu Chonghua. Gu Chonghua’s spirits and appearance were clearly different from his.
Although Gu Chonghua was also old, he looked much younger, at least ten years younger. But they were actually the same age.
Also, Gu Chonghua looked alert, and his complexion was ruddy. He could tell at a glance that Gu Chonghua was doing well.
Old Master Guo’s heart ached when he thought of himself and his wife.
“We’ve been drifting here and there. We’ve been to many places, and for the past few years, we were in the town here. That’s how we ended up here.”
“That’s right…” Old Master Guo looked at Gu Chonghua. “You… you’ve been here all along? That’s impossible! Weren’t you sent away?”
He knew that the Gu family had withdrawn to live here in seclusion. He had even been here many years ago!
He had noticed that wonderful scenery and felt that the atmosphere was not bad, so he had kept a place in the town nearby. He planned to meet up with them in the future, when he had the time. But later on, things had changed, and all of them had fallen on hard times.
At that time, everyone was struggling to survive and they were too busy to ask about others. He had met with terrible misfortune, so he didn’t know what had happened to the Gu family.
His family’s situation was about the same as that of the Gu family, except that the Gu family had not gone overseas. He thought that Gu Chonghua and Wen Ruyu would certainly be sent to the countryside, and so he was surprised to see that they had remained in their hometown.
It was good to be in their hometown!
Even though farming was hard, it was much better than having to leave your home, like they had!
Gu Chonghua said, “That’s right. I’ve been here all along. I live next door, also in this cowshed. My entire family is here.
“No, actually, my three sons have left the village. Only my youngest son remained at home to take care of us. My daughter is with us too.”
Old Master Guo: “…”
Gu Chonghua’s circumstances sounded much better than his. At least, judging from his tone, it seemed that his children were all healthy and doing quite well.
He himself had many children and grandchildren.
Compared to him, Gu Chonghua’s life seemed like paradise.
Old Master Guo looked at his aged wife who had shrunk to almost nothing. His heart filled with pain.
“I’ve let her down! I didn’t discipline my children and grandchildren properly. Now that we are old, she has to suffer like that.”
Gu Qingyao hurried over and looked at Old Master Guo. “Grandfather Guo, how are you?”
Her words shocked Gu Chonghua and Old Master Guo.
“Yao Yao?”
“You know each other?”
