Hearing his mother say that, Gu Yunshu instantly remembered how his older brother and sister always protected him when he was bullied as a child.
He did have a wonderful childhood, and at that time he thought the other person was his own older brother or sister, so he took their kindness towards him for granted.
But after he found out and heard what others said about him, he felt that their kindness towards him was all for ulterior motives.
"I'm sorry..." Gu Yunshu lowered his head.
Madam Gu reached out and patted his head before speaking, "Do you know? You're not the only one who cares about blood ties. Your brother once asked me the same question. He said we're not related by blood, so why are you so good to me?"
"Then why are you so good to him? Because you know that his father saved Dad's life?"
"No, I didn't know that back then. They were very sensible, and since I was already their stepmother, I was their mother, so naturally they were my children."
I told him that now that I had become his family, I would treat him well and treat him like my own child.
He was also trying his best to protect his mother. Back then, our family wasn't that wealthy, and we didn't have bodyguards like we do now.
Back then, your dad and I were just starting out in our business when some thugs started targeting us. Your brother almost got stabbed while protecting me, but thankfully your dad arrived just in time.
My son! To me, they've long been my children, your older brothers and sisters.
After saying this, Madam Gu sighed again, as if she had remembered something else: "Actually, besides your brother asking me about blood relations, your sister also asked another question."
Back then, your brother was mature and steady, and was actually more accepting of things, but your sister wasn't.
It's not just with Mom, it's the same with Dad. Your dad adopted them over a year ago, but he never called your dad "Dad." He always called him "Uncle." Do you know why?
"Why?" Gu Yunshu was also puzzled.
"Because she said that her parents loved her very much, and she had her own parents. Although her parents were no longer with her, she didn't know whether she should accept her current parents. She asked me if her parents would be sad if she accepted them and called them 'Mom and Dad'?" Mrs. Gu's voice choked up as she said this.
I recalled the scene of that skinny little girl asking me these questions. She was actually asking if meeting new parents was a betrayal of her deceased parents.
"Her mother replied: No! They won't be sad, they'll be happy instead, because Anian and Niannian have two parents now, two more people who love them than others." Their family has always been about exchanging sincerity for sincerity.
Her words seemed to have touched Jiang Niannian, so after the arrival of her new younger brother, the two children treated Gu Yunshu in the same way.
Whether or not there is a blood relationship is not important; we are already a family, and that makes us the most important family members.
Unfortunately, the relationship was ultimately disrupted by the concept of blood ties.
Gu Yunshu covered her head and replied, "It was my uncle. He told me all this because he said those two were trying to steal my family fortune. I don't know why, even though I kept telling myself that he was saying these things on purpose, but..."
But it's as if my uncle's words are branded in my heart, and I can't shake them off, which has led to the current situation.
