Chapter 155 Will the Second Cousin Be the Same?
"Dad, Mom, I have discovered something, but I haven't figured it out yet. I'll tell you when I figure it out." Gu Xiaoxi did not reveal that Gu Changsen was not his second uncle's biological son.
She was wondering if her eldest cousin was not her second uncle's biological son, then maybe her second cousin wasn't either?
Thinking of this possibility, she decided to find out the truth first.
"Okay, as long as you know what's going on." Seeing that Xiaoxi didn't say anything, Gu He didn't ask any further questions.
Gu Xiaoxi got the answer she wanted and left her parents' room. Her second uncle needed the equipment and people at night, so she couldn't go out even if she wanted to tonight.
When she returned to her second uncle's room, she asked Chen San to go back and rest: "Chen San, you've been tired all day, why don't you go back and rest?"
"Miss Xiaoxi, I'm not tired." Chen San felt that it was much easier here than at home.
"Go to sleep. You don't have to watch over me at night. I can watch over you." Gu Xiaoxi waved her hand.
Chen San bowed and went back to sleep.
After Gu Xiaoxi entered the house, he closed and locked the door, then went into the space to check on his second uncle.
The equipment monitoring showed that everything was normal. I don’t know if my second uncle was too tired, but he was still sleeping soundly after the anesthetic wore off.
To prevent her second uncle from waking up suddenly, she added some other medicine.
She also slept soundly that night.
The next morning, Gu Ping woke up and found his hands and feet tied and his eyes blindfolded. He screamed in fear.
"W-what is this place? Why are you tying me up?"
Gu Xiaoxi was startled and stepped forward to comfort him, "Uncle, don't worry. It's me. I'm treating your injuries and need acupuncture. I tied your limbs up to prevent you from moving around."
Hearing the sound of the stream, Gu Ping slowly calmed down.
Thinking back to what happened yesterday, he realized that he had walked around outside the Palace of Yama.
"Thank you, Xiaoxi!" he said a little tiredly.
"Second uncle, you are my elder and my relative. Even if that second aunt is no longer a good-for-nothing, I still respect you." Gu Xiaoxi was telling the truth. Besides, the matter of the second aunt could not be discussed yet.
Although my second uncle's condition is under control now, he is still injured, so we should wait until he recovers.
Why……
Gu Ping sighed deeply and said helplessly, "Your Second Aunt has always had this bad temper. She hasn't changed in decades."
"That's because you spoiled her. If Second Aunt is right, it's okay if you spoil her. If you still spoil her even if she is wrong, you will be the unlucky one." Gu Xiaoxi said this deliberately, as a way to give Second Uncle a shot of prevention in advance.
Although Gu Ping knew that Xiaoxi's words made sense, he did not respond.
Gu Xiaoxi felt that her second uncle had long been accustomed to this kind of life, and she didn't know how he would feel after the truth was revealed.
"Uncle, please lie down for a while. I will call you when it's time for breakfast," she said.
Why……
This time Gu Ping responded, closed his eyes and tried to sleep for a while longer.
Gu Xiaoxi waited for the medicine to be injected, took out the needle and removed the other instruments before removing the cloth from her uncle's eyes.
Gu Ping couldn't fall asleep after sleeping for so long yesterday. Moreover, his wound was a little painful and he didn't dare to move.
Crunch!
When Gu Xiaoxi opened the door, she saw Gu Changsen sitting at the door. She didn't know when he came.
Hearing the door open, Gu Changsen stood up.
"Brother Changsen, come in and see your second uncle?" Gu Xiaoxi shouted.
Why……
Gu Changsen obediently walked in. Seeing that his father finally woke up, his eyes suddenly turned red.
Gu Xiaoxi walked out of the room and heard her eldest cousin crying. He was talking to her second uncle while crying, and it was obvious that he was very worried about her second uncle.
What a pity...
How great it would be if my eldest cousin was really my second uncle’s son?
She walked out of the room and went to the kitchen to see if breakfast was ready.
Chai had already gotten up to make breakfast. After getting up, Gu Dongming and the others all went to the backyard to practice martial arts, which has gradually become a habit for everyone.
Chen Shiliu couldn't sleep, so he asked Shisan to push him over.
Uncle Yuan was able to use a wheelchair since yesterday, but he hasn't woken up yet.
The two dogs in the yard were walking around with their tails wagging, and Gu Xiaoxi thought of the tiger cub in the space.
The little tiger cub is like a bubble that has been blown into his body. He changes a lot every day, but he still can't walk steadily. He is so cute.
"Xiaoxi, get up. How is your second uncle?" Chai asked with concern when she saw her daughter get up.
"Second uncle has woken up. As long as the wound is not torn, it will heal slowly and everything will be fine." Gu Xiaoxi replied to her mother.
After hearing this, Chai sighed with relief and said, "Don't you know that your father tossed and turned all night long last night, worried that his brother would get into trouble again?"
"Don't worry, mom. I'll be at home these days. Nothing will happen." Gu Xiaoxi smiled at her mother.
"I didn't expect that your medical skills are so great. If your master comes back one day, you must invite him back to stay for a while." Chai wanted to thank this master in person for teaching her daughter so well.
Master?
That was just a made-up character. Gu Xiaoxi thought for a moment and said, "Mom, my master has already passed away."
After hearing this, Mrs. Chai was afraid that her daughter would be sad, so she did not continue the topic.
After coming out of the yard, Gu Xiaoxi went to the backyard. Seeing that everyone was practicing hard, she felt quite relieved.
She knew from the notes that this continent was a four-way tripod, and the place where she lived was close to the border of the Western Craftsman Kingdom. The two countries had been in intermittent disputes in recent years, and a war might break out at any time, so she had to prepare for it.
That’s right!
If a war really breaks out, the supplies we have now will not be enough.
She also needed to stock up on extra supplies, just in case.
"Xiaoxi, look at that kid, why is his punch so powerless?" Chen Shiliu felt a little headache looking at Chen Qinian's boxing skills.
Gu Xiaoxi recalled the first time Chen Qinian stood up for justice, and his boxing skills were not bad. However, now that he looked closely, there were indeed some problems.
"Don't worry, I'll go and take a look." After she said that, she came to Chen Qinian.
When Chen Qinian saw Sister Xiaoxi coming, he punched much faster than before.
"Come on, let's try it. You have to use all your strength." Gu Xiaoxi said to Chen Qinian.
"Okay!" Chen Qinian agreed.
Hearing that the two were about to fight, everyone else stopped and stood aside.
Gu Xiaoxi asked Chen Qinian to attack first. Chen Qinian threw a few punches, but didn't even touch Gu Xiaoxi's clothes.
He was unwilling to give up, so he punched even faster than before.
However, the more anxious he became, the harder it was for him to hit anyone, and finally he stopped panting from exhaustion.
"Sister Xiaoxi, I clearly saw you hitting, why do you always miss?" he asked with some annoyance.
