Gu Xi followed Mr. Gu downstairs.

As soon as I walked down the stairs, I saw a girl who came to the top of the stairs and was about to go upstairs. It was not until he saw the old man come down that the other party stopped.

Gu Xi looked at each other, a flash of surprise in her eyes.

——Gu Xueer?

If she remembers correctly, she should be called by this name.

Gu Xi recalled: This person was exactly the day Gu Xi and Dong Mingming came out of the library, and they met Gu Xueer, who was the leader of the group, and the other party took them to take a picture on the photo wall at that time.

It's just that seeing Gu Xueer at Gu's house made Gu Xi a little surprised.

——

When Gu Xueer on the other side saw Gu Xi, she was also a little surprised. And I quickly remembered Gu Xi—I saw that girl in school that day.

At that time, because the girl grew up very beautifully, Gu Xueer had a little more impression of Gu Xi.

Later, Gu Chenyi and Gu Yanxiao helped the girl canvass votes in the circle of friends.

At that time, Gu Xueer was still wondering, why did the two people help Gu Xi canvass votes? Did they know each other?

"Grandpa, is this the guest from home today?" Depressing a trace of care in her heart, Gu Xueer blinked, looking at Grandpa Gu with a full face and asking.

"Not a guest." The old man said straightforwardly, and said: "This is your second uncle's daughter."

"Xixi lived with her mother before, but now she's back." The old man said. He gave an explanation for Gu Xi's appearance, but didn't talk too much about Gu Xi's previous situation in Lin's family, and what happened back then.

This is a kind of protection from the old man to Gu Xi.

Hearing the old man’s explanation, Gu Xueer was surprised in her heart: Er uncle has been alone for so many years. No one has heard of the marriage or relationship history of Er uncle in the past. Why did she suddenly have a child?

Bastard? Or some kid who came out by accident? I don't know if it's true...

Gu Xueer thought to herself in her heart, but she quickly concealed the surprise on her face.

Before Grandpa Gu introduced her to Gu Xi, Gu Xueer had already cast a very warm smile on Gu Xi.

"Hello, Xixi, my name is Gu Xueer, and I am glad to meet you." Gu Xueer said to Gu Xi on the initiative.

"We have seen it in school before, do you still have an impression?" Gu Xueer asked, not concealing that the two had seen this at school before, and did not appear to be embarrassed at all because of that incident.

"I have an impression." Gu Xi nodded.

The smile on Gu Xue'er's face widened a bit, and continued: "I felt a little familiar when I first saw you before. I didn't expect that we were so predestined and we were still a family."

——No wonder Gu Chenyi and Gu Yanxiao would help Gu Xi canvass votes. It seems that they should have known about Gu Xi a long time ago.

Gu Xueer thought to herself in her heart.

She looked at Gu Xi again, and said, "I should be a little older than you. Just call me Sister Xueer."

Gu Xi nodded again and called the other party, which was regarded as a greeting.

Gu Xueer said that the affinity and friendliness she showed was just like when she was in school before, so she couldn't pick out what was wrong.

However, Gu Xi was a little strange.

It seems that Gu Xueer should also belong to the Gu family, but she had never heard Gu Chenyi and others mention it before. Even when Gu Shao introduced her to the Gu family's staff, she only talked about the family of the uncle and the uncle and the three boys.

Gu Xi subconsciously looked in the direction of the living room. I found that there was one more person in the living room besides Gu Shao and Gu Xuan.

At this time, Gu Shao and Gu Xuan were sitting on the side of the sofa, while the man in a dark gray suit was sitting on the sofa opposite the two.

The three are chatting.

There was nothing wrong with her expression, but Gu Xi faintly felt that the atmosphere over there was an indescribable weird feeling.

Although it's just a normal conversation, and the content of the conversation is nothing special when it is vaguely heard, but the three people sitting together don't feel like chatting, but more like a game.

——

At this moment, the other party looked over and saw the old man, the man nodded towards Gu Shao and Gu Xuan, then got up and walked towards this side.

Walking to the old man Gu and standing still, the man shouted at the old man: "Dad."

By the way, he glanced at Gu Xi beside the old man again.

This look made Gu Xi shudder inexplicably.

The man in front of him looked about the same age as Gu Shao and Gu Xuan, with gentle facial features and a humble smile, but there was a coldness behind his smile.

This kind of coldness is completely different from Gu Shao's kind of coldness and the high coldness of other Gu family members when they are not talking-people don't think it's wrong, but it just feels cold on the back.

"Come here." The old man said in response.

"I encountered some minor troubles, so I took a few ginsengs from country A to my dad, and I asked Mr. Zhou to take it." Gu Yaobai said.

The old man nodded: "Just take care of the matter."

Except for this sentence, Mr. Gu didn't make any more comments.

Gu Xi secretly glanced at Old Man Gu's face, and found that Old Man Gu's face no longer had the kindly smile that was full of the kindness that he had previously lost.

At this time, Mr. Gu didn't have much expression on his face, as if this was the solemn and steady appearance he should usually have.

"It's all here, let's go over and eat." Old Man Gu said.

The tone sounds okay, there is nothing special about it.

When Mr. Gu spoke, everyone in the family naturally moved.

Gu Yaobai and Gu Xueer also followed the old man towards the restaurant.

——

At this moment, Aunt May came over.

She helped in the kitchen before, and after everything was done, she went back to the room she lived in before and changed into clothes that did not smell of oily smoke.

Seeing Gu Yaobai over there, Aunt Mei was taken aback for a moment: "The Third Young Master is here too."

Aunt Mei murmured, seeing that Gu Xi's face was not in the situation, she wondered if the old man had forgotten to introduce it, so she walked over and introduced to Gu Xi in a low voice: "That's the third child of the Gu family, you have to be called'Sanshu'. , Next to your third uncle’s daughter, one year older than you."

After hearing Aunt Mei's introduction, Gu Xi didn't feel that she was suddenly enlightened, but was even more puzzled.

——Gu Shao is the second child of the Gu family, and the younger uncle is the fourth child. The two are so close to each other that they are less than two years old. How come a third child is added in between?

Without waiting for Gu Xi to think about it, the old man in front of Gu Xi took two steps and felt wrong, only to realize that his granddaughter hadn't kept up, so he stopped and turned back to call Gu Xi.

"Certainly go, and grandpa went over for dinner."

When Mr. Gu spoke to Gu Xi, his tone naturally became kind, and the expression on his face became kind at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Okay." Gu Xi followed in two steps.

Seeing Gu Shao also came over, Gu Xi moved to Gu Shao's side without a trace.

Looking down at Gu Xi who came to his side, a smile flashed in Gu Shao's eyes-fortunately, he forgot his father before he arrived at Gu's house.

Several people entered the restaurant together.

The dining room in the main house of Gu’s house is very large, just like the other rooms.

In the center of the restaurant is a large round table. The dishes are already prepared on the table. At first glance, almost half of them are sweet and sour dishes.

Before Gu Xi heard from Aunt Mei, the entire Gu family’s eating habits tend to favor sweets, except for Gu Shao.

"Sit down." Elder Gu took a seat first, and then spoke to the others.

Although the Gu family usually doesn't pay attention to these things, some of the boys are often not big or small, but they still need to be careful during the holidays.

Gu Xi thought it should be the uncle and their elders sitting next. But I didn't expect Gu Shao to be the second seated.

What made Gu Xi even more puzzled was that Gu Shao was not sitting down one by one on the left hand side of the old man, but sitting directly opposite the old man.

Gu Xi was puzzled.

At this time, Gu Chenyi on the side whispered in Gu Xi's ear: "Do you think it's weird?"

Gu Xi nodded.

Gu Chenyi smiled again and explained: "This order is correct, because Er Bo is the head of the Gu family."

"Ah?!" Gu Xi was taken aback, and looked at Gu Chenyi in surprise. She really didn't know this.

Then why didn't Gu Shao live in Gu's house? It seems that Dad and Grandpa don't seem to be separated from each other.

Gu Xi thought to herself.

——

The rest are not particular about it.

Gu Xi took a look, and finally sat next to Gu Shao.

On the opposite side, Mr. Gu, who originally wanted to let his precious granddaughter sit with him, saw him, and was sad for a while.

However, he was afraid that Gu Xi would be uncomfortable eating at home on the first day, so the old man did not force Gu Xi to leave Gu Shao and come and sit with him.

"I'm sitting with Xi and my sister." Gu Chenyi moved the fastest and directly grabbed the position next to Gu Xi, while Gu Yanxiao and Gu Yanlin sat next to each other in turn.

Gu Xueer originally wanted to sit here, but when she walked over, she found that she had no space left, and she was a little embarrassed to stand there.

However, soon Gu Xueer smiled carelessly, easily resolved the embarrassment, walked over, and sat down opposite Gu Xi.

Gu Xueer didn't let herself be cold, she looked at Gu Xi and asked curiously: "Xiexi, did you transfer to the attached middle school?"

"Yes." Gu Xi nodded.

Gu Xueer smiled: "No wonder, I haven't seen you in school before."

After that, Gu Xueer asked with concern: "Then come to the new school, are you still used to it?"

"It's okay." Gu Xi replied.

"That's good," Gu Xueer said enthusiastically: "I'm in Class 6 of the third grade, if you encounter anything in school, you can come to our class to find me."

As soon as Gu Xueer finished speaking, Gu Xi was about to express her gratitude politely, so she listened to Gu Chenyi next to him whispering: "I still need you."

Gu Xi looked at Gu Chenyi and was also very puzzled: Since Gu Xueer also belongs to the Gu family, why she hadn't heard them mention the third uncle and Gu Xueer before.

Seeing Gu Xi's puzzlement, Gu Chenyi whispered: "Let me tell you in the group."

Just now, Gu Xi was not only dragged into a group of ‘happy family’, ‘fun family’... by these people, a few others also created a small group: [Gu’s Four Handsome and Beautiful Bases]

This group name Gu Xi didn't want to complain, but felt that only the [Decisive Battle at the Top of Heaven] on the other app could compete.

[Gu Xueer did not grow up with Gu's parents, we actually don't know her very well. ] Gu Chenyi said in the group.

Then, Gu Yanxiao also added: [And she can't be regarded as Gu's family. 】

Gu Xi:?

In the end, Gu Yanlin explained to Gu Xi in more detail: [The third uncle is not a child of his grandfather. It is regarded as a child of the old acquaintance adopted by the Gu family. Just get together every new year and holidays. Therefore, the intersection between everyone and Gu Xueer is not too much. 】

Gu Yanxiao and Gu Chenyi didn't know much about Sanshu's family. Gu Yanlin knew about it from his father.

——The relationship between the grandfather and grandma husband and wife has always been very good. At that time, grandma was pregnant with her fourth uncle, and one day a woman named Yang Wanni came to the door and brought a child less than one year old.

This Yang Wanni was a nurse in the camp of Mr. Gu at the time, but she disappeared for a while and she came back and gave birth to a child.

Yang Wanni insisted that it was Gu Qinghua who had a relationship with her while she was sleeping on duty and she became pregnant.

At that time, there was no surveillance in the ward, and Grandpa Gu was indeed training in the ward where Yang Wanni was working.

Although Yang Wanni is not a pretty girl, she also looks like Xiaojiabiyu. Coupled with her usual meekness, she always gives the impression that she is a good girl.

So after the news of this incident spread, most people believed Yang Wanni's words, and Grandpa Gu couldn't argue with her for a moment.

At that time, the paternity test was not so easy. It took Gu Qinghua a lot of effort to prove that the child was not his, and he did not do anything bad to Yang Wanni.

It is a pity that the woman died before Gu Qinghua went to find Yang Wanni. It is said that Yang Wanni was ill and died soon.

The child was thrown at Gu's house.

Out of sympathy, Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu adopted the child, who is now the third child of the Gu family.

So Gu Yaobai is about the same age as Gu Shao.

Later, he may have grown up slowly, and he also learned of his life experience from some people nearby, Gu Yaobai gradually left the Gu family.

...

After reading Gu Yanlin's explanation, Gu Xi finally understood and nodded: That's it.

——

On the main seat, looking at his four bow-headed tribes, and not knowing what they are playing, the old man coughed with a serious expression: "Eat and eat! Everyone is holding a mobile phone and wanting to be a fairy? "

Hearing what the old man said, the four of Gu Xi put away their mobile phones almost simultaneously, and then looked at him with the same ‘behaved and sensible’ face.

Seeing his grandchildren and good granddaughters, Mr. Gu felt complacent in his heart, and the seriousness on his face couldn't be stretched anymore.

"It's all right, let's eat."

When Mr. Gu spoke, everyone moved their chopsticks.

Gu Xi was still picking up the rice as always, very quiet.

However, Gu Shao, who felt too ‘quiet’ next to him, lowered his head and looked at Gu Xi, then frowned.

Before, Gu Shao noticed that Gu Xi’s state was not right when he was eating—maybe it was a habit developed in Lin’s family. Most of the time, Gu Xi could not speak or even make a sound when eating, so he kept his head down. The rice in the bowl rarely reaches out to pick up the dishes on the table. Eat whatever is in the bowl, and occasionally pick the closest dish in front of you, but the movements are also very light.

Gu Xi was like this when he was first led home by Gu Shao. Later, she finally recovered. Gu Xi would talk to him at the table and pick up vegetables by herself.

As a result, now that there are more people, Gu Xi has unconsciously returned to her past state.

...

In fact, Gu Xi didn't realize this, knowing that a piece of her favorite sweet and sour pork ribs appeared in the bowl.

Gu Xi was taken aback, and she looked up and found that Gu Shao had picked the food for her.

"Don't patronize eating." Gu Shao reminded.

"Okay." Gu Xi nodded blankly, and then smiled at Gu Shao Zhanyan.

Gu Xi ate the sweet and sour ribs: As soon as I ate it, I knew it was Aunt Mei’s craftsmanship, but I don’t know if it was an illusion. Gu Xi felt that this time the sweet and sour ribs were better than Aunt Mei’s made before.

"Clip whatever you like." Gu Shao reminded him again.

"Oh."

As a result, before Gu Xi moved her chopsticks, there was already a plate of pumpkin shortbread in front of her.

Not one, but a whole set.

It was Gu Yanlin who brought the pumpkin shortbread to Gu Xi: "Taste Xixi, you should like it."

Not waiting for Gu Yanlin's words to fall, Gu Yanxiao and Gu Chenyi on the side brought the ones that Gu Xi liked to her, not to be outdone.

"You must like this glutinous rice dumpling."

"That's too dry, this cheesecake is amazing."

...

So, in the blink of an eye, a mountain piled up in front of Gu Xi.

Looking at the three pairs of shining eyes next to her, Gu Xi silently retracted her gaze.

Kindness is hard to come by.

But she can't eat it!

"It's delicious." Gu Xi said to the three of them with a pumpkin shortbread in a bowl, a glutinous rice dumpling on his chopsticks, and a bite of cheesecake in his mouth.

Finally, after waiting for the eyes of the few people to look away, Gu Xi quietly pushed the plates of dim sum to Gu Chenyi's front.

"It's really delicious, you can eat it."

"Hey, okay." Sure enough, he still has the best relationship with him.

As a result, before Gu Chenyi had waited for a few seconds, he was caught by the opposite Gu Xuan.

"It's a pity you ate yours, don't worry about him, this guy can't be hungry." Gu Xuan said, obviously misunderstanding.

And the old man on the main seat also echoed: "Yes, there is no need to give them a few, but I regret to let the kitchen do it."

Gu Xi: "..." No, she just can't eat anymore, really.

Seeing his granddaughter's well-behaved appearance, Mr. Gu felt something appropriate for a while.

——

Father Gu's eyes passed Gu Yaobai, and he asked, "Yaobai, how are you doing?"

Hearing that the old man's name was Gu Yaobai, the others didn't respond much, but the spoon in Gu Xi's hand fell into the bowl.

"What's the matter?" Several people nearby looked over nervously.

"It's nothing, my hand slipped a bit." Gu Xi said with an embarrassed smile that caused a moment of horror in the eyes.

When calm was restored again, Gu Xi pulled Gu Chenyi's clothes on the table.

"What do you want to eat, I'll take it for you."

"No." Gu Xi shook her head and motioned to Gu Chenyi to come closer, and then asked in the voice of only two people: "What did Grandpa call Sanshu just now?"

"Oh, Gu Yaobai, Sanshu's name," Gu Chenyi thought that Gu Xi was wondering how Sanshu's name was different from other people's formats, and explained: "Sanshu's name should have been taken by his biological mother before, so he and our father Different."

"Glorious brilliance, white white?"

Gu Chenyi thought about it and nodded.

But he didn't notice Gu Xi's gradually freezing expression.

——In the novel, there is also a person with this name, but it is not Gu Yaobai, but Xie Yaobai.
