Chapter 24 Don't Want to Work



Gu Yueshan felt a terrible headache and in order to stay awake, he unconsciously crushed the teacup in his hand.

Yi Wei looked at his hands covered in blood, his hands trembled uncontrollably, he opened his mouth but didn't know what to say. He knew that Gu Yueshan must be feeling very uncomfortable right now, and he couldn't understand his pain and feelings, so any words would be meaningless.

Yi Wei quickly went to get the medicine box and helped Gu Yueshan treat the wound on his palm. After carefully making sure that there was no debris in the cleaned wound, he helped him apply medicine and put on a waterproof medicine cloth.

Yi Wei stood up, looked at Gu Yueshan and said, "Go lie down on the bed for a while."

"It's all right now." Gu Yueshan shook his head, opened his eyes, patted the seat next to him and said, "Sit with me for a while."

"Don't take pictures." Yi Wei sat down and held his hand.

Gu Yueshan really just wanted to sit for a while, and the two of them just sat there without saying anything. But Yi Wei knew that although he was fine, he was not really fine. He must still be feeling uncomfortable, but he could not do anything now and could only accompany him like this.

About an hour later, the porridge cooked by Chen Mengying and the soup cooked by Yan Yiyu were delivered. Yi Wei went out to receive them, and prepared to bring them to Gu Yueshan, asking him if he wanted to eat.

Yi Wei felt a little complicated when she personally served the food made by other women to her husband. The key point was that she knew that these two women had a certain attitude towards Gu Yueshan. He couldn't just throw the food away, but he felt uncomfortable. Even though he and Gu Yueshan didn't get married because they loved each other, he was serious about cultivating their relationship and living together. He wasn't so conceited that he would be indifferent to such things.

Yi Wei put the tray on the table, looked at Gu Yueshan and asked, "The porridge was sent by Miss Chen, and the soup was sent by Miss Yan. They were both cooked by them personally. Which bowl do you want to eat?"

Gu Yueshan looked at Yi Wei in silence for a while and then asked, "How dare you bring it to me? Which bowl do you want me to eat?"

"They both quarreled so much... I just... since I've already agreed..." Yi Wei hesitated for a long time and then said, "Anyway, I... I think the food made by the Gu family's chef is not worse than this."

Yi Wei couldn't honestly say that he didn't want Gu Yueshan to eat, but he also expressed his true thoughts. Since Gu Yueshan asked him, he naturally had to tell the truth, and he would never persuade Gu Yueshan to eat these foods.

"Then take it out and have someone throw it away." Gu Yueshan said, "You don't have to pay attention to those two women. I have already told the housekeeper not to allow them to enter the main house in the future."

Yi Wei glanced down, then picked up the tray and asked the maid to take it to the kitchen. Anyway, he had done what he promised them, and even if the two of them asked him about it, he would answer them truthfully that Gu Yueshan didn't want to eat.

Since Gu Yueshan knew that Yi Wei had said that he was sick, he simply took a few days off from going to the company and rested at home.

In fact, Gu Yueshan just didn’t want to work and didn’t want to see other people’s faces. He just wanted to be affectionate with Yi Wei and cultivate feelings with the child.

Osmanthus and chrysanthemums were in full bloom. Gu Yue moved into Qingxi Garden on the pretext of recuperating in Shantou. He could hold Yi Wei in his arms all day long. If Yi Ru didn't have to eat three meals a day, he would not let go.

After the two old ladies in the family learned that Gu Yueshan did not allow Chen Mengying and Yan Yiyun to enter the main house, they knew in their hearts that there was no hope for these two people. However, they did not give up the idea of ​​arranging a blind date for Gu Yueshan. The main reason was that Gu Yueshan had reached the age where he should get married even if he could not have children. They all felt that they could not let the other party seize the opportunity first. After all, the positions of the wife of the head of the Gu family and the wife of the chairman of the Gu Group were very important.

They took advantage of the fact that Gu Yueshan was resting at home these days, and it happened to be the time for the Gu family to hold a flower-viewing banquet, so they prepared a large blind date party.

Although the Gu family has a rule that, except for the eldest wife, no one else can hold wedding or funeral banquets in the Gu family, there are actually quite a few banquets of all sizes every year. In addition to various traditional festivals, there are also some flower-viewing banquets and solar term banquets, which are old traditions preserved for many years.

In previous years, if Gu Yueshan had time, he would sit for a while and show up at these family banquets, even if he would not sit from beginning to end. He happened to be resting at home these days, and if he didn't show up, others might wonder how seriously ill he was.

Yi Wei and several other assistants followed Gu Yueshan into the garden. The fragrance of osmanthus hit them in the face. It was stronger than the osmanthus fragrance in Qingxi Garden, but it smelled sweet and not offensive.

There was a spacious marble flower-viewing platform in the garden. Gu Yueshan and the two old ladies sat at a table in the pavilion in the middle of the platform. The rest of the people sat at more than ten or twenty tables around the pavilion. Gu Yueshan looked around. Although in previous years there were relatives of the Gu family who brought relatives and friends here, this year there were obviously more people who were not from the Gu family, especially women.

Gu Yueshan raised his hand to clear the table, and various delicious dishes, as well as plates of big red crabs, were brought to the table one after another.

Yi Wei sat at a table with other assistants. He was envious of the crabs, which were so yellow and juicy, and had snow-white and tender meat, but he couldn't eat them because he was pregnant.

Gu Heng diligently peeled crabs for Yi Xuan, and took the opportunity to turn around and glance at Yi Wei. A few days ago, his grandmother told him to get along well with Yi Wei, and Yi Wei had agreed to help him, so even if he was unwilling in his heart, he had to pretend to be willing. Gu Heng didn't believe that Yi Wei would sincerely cooperate with him, but since his grandmother had already said so, he would find an opportunity to test him and wait for him to reveal his true colors so that his grandmother would understand that he was not someone worth cooperating with.

Yi Xuan followed Gu Heng's line of sight and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing." Gu Heng said, "The hairy crabs are the most delicious at this time of year, and they happen to be your favorite, so eat more."

Yi Xuan likes seafood but is allergic to it. Hairy crabs live in rivers, which are fresh water. He likes to eat them and can eat them, but when faced with the beautiful scenery and delicious food, he is not very interested because Gu Heng's grandmother praised Yi Wei's ability in front of him and told him that even if he could not compare with Yi Wei, he should at least work harder to be able to do as well as Gu Heng.

Yi Xuan knew that Yi Wei had passed the examination of the Academy of Perfume. Although Fenghan Academy of Perfume was very famous, Yi Wei went to study psychology instead of perfume. He couldn't wait to let everyone know that he was much better than Yi Wei.

"Yi Wei, don't you want to eat?" Sun Hai, one of the assistants, looked at Yi Wei and asked.

"I don't like crabs." Yi Wei smiled and said, "The other dishes are also delicious."

Yi Wei appeared to be very calm and there was no sign of any flaw, but he was actually trying very hard to endure. His favorite food was right in front of him but he couldn't eat it. For Yi Wei, whose appetite had been increasing and whose mouth had been getting greedier recently, this really required a lot of patience.

Gu Yueshan looked at the people sitting outside from time to time. In fact, he just wanted to see Yi Wei, but it was not convenient to stare at him, so he just glanced over.

Gu Yueshan raised his hand and the butler immediately stepped forward. Gu Yueshan whispered his instructions in a few simple words, and the butler nodded, turned around and left quickly.

Before long, each table was served with two more plates of crabs made with fish, eggs and salted egg yolks. Many people at the table thought that the Gu family's chef was really thoughtful. He knew that some people would find it impolite to eat crabs with hands in public, so he served two plates of crabs. The key was that they tasted really good.

The food at Yi Wei's table was placed in front of Yi Wei. He looked up at Gu Yueshan, then picked up the spoon and scooped half a bowl into the small bowl. Because it tasted good, he ate it very happily. Seeing that he liked it, the other assistants at the same table put another plate in front of him.

"Sorry, I have a few words to say to Assistant Yi. Could you please sit over to the side?" A young man suddenly came over and said to the assistant sitting next to Yi Wei.

There were only a few assistants at Yi Wei's table, so it wasn't full. Since the man had spoken and was a guest, there was no reason for the assistants to refuse, so they moved to the seat next to him.

Yi Wei didn't know this person and looked at him with a puzzled look.

The man introduced himself: "Hello, my name is Ye Xiucheng."

"Is there something wrong?" Yi Wei thought, if the surname is Ye, could it be someone from the old lady's family?

"Nothing special." Ye Xiucheng said with a smile: "I just want to get to know you and make friends. I'm a little abrupt, I hope you don't mind."

After looking at Yi Wei and the others for a while, Xu Hua deliberately said, "The young man who was talking to Yi Wei looks familiar. Is he from your Ye family?"

Ye Feng also turned to take a look and said with a smile: "He is the grandson of my eldest cousin."

Xu Hua smiled and said sarcastically, "You didn't even let Yue Shan's assistant go, did you?"

"What you said is really strange. It's normal for young men and women to chat with each other and make friends. Why do you say such harsh words when they come out of your mouth?"

"It doesn't matter whether the words are hard to hear or not. What matters is whether they are true," said Xu Hua.

Gu Yueshan looked towards Yi Wei, the chopsticks in his hand were about to break, and anger rose in his heart.

"There are a lot of unfamiliar people today." Gu Yueshan said expressionlessly.

"Is there anyone that catches your eye?" Ye Feng immediately looked at Gu Yueshan and asked. She felt that she was already halfway to success as she could get Gu Yueshan to say this on his own initiative.

"What is this for?" Gu Yueshan's eyes were growing angry: "Are you setting me up for a group blind date, or are you putting me on a talent show?"

"It's just... just to invite them over to enjoy the flowers and have a meal, to have some fun. There's nothing else to it." Ye Feng said immediately when she saw Gu Yueshan was angry.

Gu Yueshan slammed the chopsticks on the table, stood up and left with a sullen face.

The noise of Gu Yueshan slamming the table was heard by everyone around him. Everyone turned to look at him, and when they saw him leaving in anger, everyone else was stunned, not knowing why.

Upon seeing this, Yi Wei and several other assistants immediately stood up and followed.

Xu Hua and Ye Feng's faces turned ugly. This was the first time that Gu Yueshan slammed the table in front of them, and in front of so many people. They both felt embarrassed and thought that they were the elders after all, and Gu Yueshan's disrespectful behavior towards them was really too much.

Neither of them could sit still any longer, so they stood up and left to find Gu Yueshan. They both wanted to ask him whether he still cared about them as his elders.
