Chapter 23: The old lady is very clever - after the real daughter's mind was read, her personality collapsed
Gu Xizhi, Gu Sirou, Gu Jiangyuan and Gu Jiangyu were sitting in a car.
Hearing Gu Sirou's words, Gu Jiangyuan and Gu Jiangyu both looked over.
[Will I tell you that I brought Xiao Huang here to let him take the blame? ]
Gu Xizhi rubbed Xiao Huang's head, lowered his eyes, and said tenderly: "It's just that I feel uneasy about leaving it alone at home because it's still so young."
Gu Jiangyuan & Gu Jiangyu: "..."
You are two-faced.
Since the time of the banquet was set last week, Lin Manni arranged for someone to send out the invitations.
Almost everyone in Ning City who has business dealings with the Gu family was present today.
Naturally, all other relatives of the Gu family who stayed in Ning City also attended the banquet.
Gu Xizhi and his group's car arrived relatively late, so she held Xiao Huang and followed Gu Jiangyuan and Gu Jiangyu into the banquet hall. There were already a lot of people inside, and their eyes immediately focused on them.
"Is that the biological daughter that Gu Shicheng just found? She looks quite similar to Lin Manni."
"My daughter is in the same school as Gu Shicheng's biological daughter. I heard that this biological daughter is not a good student and is not as good as Gu Sirou at all."
"I heard that she was a beggar before she returned to the Gu family. How could such a person become the daughter of the Gu family..."
"That thing she's holding must be a local dog. It's really ugly, just as rustic as she is..."
The people in the corner were talking about Gu Xizhi in a whisper. They were quite far away, so Gu Jiangyuan and Gu Jiangyu could not hear them.
But Gu Xizhi, who had received system rewards several times, heard it clearly.
When she was reading a novel, this banquet was described in it.
The original owner's experience when she first entered the scene was similar to what she is experiencing now.
Even though she was the real daughter of the Gu family, she had always been wandering around and living in the circle that they looked down upon the most.
She had been a beggar for more than half a year, and they avoided her as much as possible. These people who claimed to be from the upper class despised her.
There were even quite a few of Gu Sirou's followers who did some rather excessive things to her in order to vent her anger.
"Zhizhi, come here quickly, this is grandpa, this is grandma, call them quickly."
Lin Manni's voice interrupted Gu Xizhi's thoughts.
Gu Xizhi and his friends had already walked into a small room next to the banquet hall, where all the Gu family members were gathered.
Sitting at the front, the two elderly people that Lin Manni asked her to call looked quite amiable.
They are the original owner's grandparents, and one of the few Gu family members in the book who is relatively friendly to Gu Xizhi.
"Grandpa, grandma."
She called out to someone obediently.
"Oh," the old lady's face, which had several obvious wrinkles, narrowed her eyes as she smiled.
"Come here and let grandma see it."
"You are so thin, you must have suffered a lot outside, right? Fortunately, you are back, it's good to be back."
The old lady took her hand, touched it lovingly, took off the glass jade bracelet on her hand, and put it on Gu Xizhi's wrist.
[Ah, my grandma is so nice, she gave me such a nice bracelet the first time we met. ]
[If I sell this bracelet, it will be enough for me to live a life without worries, right? Then can I leave the Gu family? ]
She was originally short of money, so she had no choice but to take the risk and return to Gu's house, but there was still a female owner in Gu's house.
The heroine always has a halo. It would be a shame for a female supporting role like her to stay by the heroine's side all the time and be sent abroad in the end as in the original plot.
Gu Sirou stared at the jade bracelet on Gu Xizhi's hand.
This is something the old lady treats as a family heirloom. It is said that it could be sold for at least 200 million.
She had stayed with the old lady for such a long time, but she hadn't given it to her. Now that she had met Gu Xizhi for the first time, she...
The old lady was stunned for a moment, then suddenly took off the bracelet and said, "Look at me, I am old and confused. You are still a child. How can I let you wear such an old-fashioned bracelet?"
"Grandma," Gu Xizhi was confused. How could the money she had earned just disappear? She looked at the old lady devoutly: "Don't look at my young appearance. Actually, I am already fifty years old mentally. I just like bracelets like this."
The old lady laughed dryly and patted Gu Xizhi on the back of his hand: "Child, you really love to joke."
Gu Xizhi's eyes widened, and he said sincerely, "I'm not kidding."
The old lady ignored her.
[Sure enough, in the book, although my grandmother was quite nice to me, she didn’t give me a bracelet. It’s still the same now.]
The old lady stared at Gu Xizhi with her cloudy eyes for a long time.
Was what I just heard really the child’s inner voice?
Fortunately, she was smart and took off the bracelet, otherwise the child would have sold the bracelet and then run away from home, right?
What the hell is the plot of this book?
Lin Manni and the others also breathed a sigh of relief.
It would be better to take the bracelet back. It is really old-fashioned and not worthy of a young girl like Zhizhi.
"Grandma, I called the housekeeper a few days ago and she said you have a headache. Can I rub it for you now?"
Gu Sirou was wearing a light purple dress, with a noble and exquisite make-up on her face. She held up the hem of her skirt and walked towards the old lady with a gentle smile.
She was just overthinking. How could her grandmother really give the bracelet to Gu Xizhi?
In her previous life, although grandma was quite nice to Gu Xizhi, in her mind, she was her most beloved granddaughter.
She remembered that in her previous life, her grandmother would suddenly faint a week after meeting Gu Xizhi.
If you go to the hospital and get a diagnosis of myocardial infarction, then...
"Grandma, from now on, after school, I will bring my sister over to accompany you, okay?"
Gu Sirou leaned against the old lady and massaged her temples.
The old lady nodded happily: "Okay, okay, grandma will be waiting for you to come over every day at home and ask the chef to make more delicious food for you."
Gu Xizhi remembered that the novel described that the chef of the old house had been Yu chef for generations because the old man's father had been kind to their family.
He would be a chef in the old house.
While reading the novel, Gu Xizhi kept drooling. Could he come to the old house to eat every day?
She suddenly felt that Gu Sirou had become pleasing to her eyes.
"Grandpa, this is our first meeting. Do you have any gift for me?"
The old lady's side was occupied by Gu Sirou, so she went to find her grandfather to see if she could raise some money to run away from home.
The old man said sternly: "No."
Gu Sirou curled the corners of her mouth quietly.
Grandpa seemed to dislike Gu Xizhi even more than he did in his previous life.
Gu Xizhi was a little disappointed.
She looked at the relatives of the Gu family standing around her and chuckled again.
The people around her were all her elders, and they had been greeted in advance and had already prepared greeting gifts.
Although he had no idea what the old man and the old lady were thinking, he still gave the meeting gift to Gu Xizhi.
Gu Xizhi walked down and stood in front of a young man who was so handsome that people could not help but scream. Following Lin Manni's introduction, she called him "Uncle".
The next moment his eyes widened.
