【Um? Will someone come to me specifically? 】

[Although many relatives came to my house today, I have never seen these people before. The people who come to see me here are probably not our relatives, right? 】

[Normally, Li Shuangshuang and the others would come to see me at home, but now...]

She looked at the few people who were playing games with Fang Ruoshan not far away.

Although Fang Ruoshan didn't know Gu Jiangyu very well, it didn't stop him from finding reasons to come to Gu's house for dinner.

He had heard before that the chef on the day of the wedding banquet was Uncle Wang. He had eaten a lot of the home-cooked dishes that Uncle Wang usually cooked. Now he also wanted to try the banquet dishes that Uncle Wang cooked.

Banquet dishes are much more sophisticated than home-cooked dishes, so he felt that these dishes must be particularly delicious.

In addition, he learned from Gu Jiangyuan that Uncle Wang was a little nervous because he hadn't cooked banquet dishes for a long time, so he practiced at home every day and found someone to try the dishes.

Everyone else can taste the food, so why can't he be the one to taste the food?

For this reason, he made time three days in advance and just arrived at Gu's house.

As soon as he arrived, he heard that Uncle Wang was ill. Not only could he not be able to try the dishes, he might not even be able to taste Uncle Wang's cooking on the wedding day.

He just sat on the sofa dejectedly playing games.

Also dejected were Li Shuangshuang and the others.

Sang Yanche also hung out with them.

[Is it Ye Han who is here? 】

Their family had no business dealings with the Ye family. Except for her and Gu Jiangyuan, they were not familiar with the Ye family.

The Ye family has such a high status in Beijing, so in order to avoid anyone saying that their family was trying to curry favor with the Ye family, they did not invite the Ye family to this wedding.

But it cannot be ruled out that after Ye Han looked at Gu Jiangyuan's circle of friends, he came to have a meal with him.

Gu Jiangyuan was no longer worried about whether Gu Xizhi should go to the kitchen. He was also curious about who would come to Gu Xizhi at this time.

He slumped on the sofa on the other side, crossed his arms over his chest, and looked curiously in the direction of the door.

Three minutes later, the servant who had just come to talk to them came in with someone.

【Um? who is this? 】

[Is it possible that he is the estranged son of the Gu family like me? After knowing his life experience, he came to look for relatives? 】

[These days, it is indeed bad to have too many children. After the birth, the children are all lost or confused by others, and even the parents don’t know it. 】

[This seems to also verify the saying from the side, parents are true love, children are accidents, accidents happen, and parents forget about it in the blink of an eye. 】

Lin Manni heard that another person was coming to the house and planned to come out to entertain the guests: "..."

This is Chi Guoguo’s rumor!

She really only has five children!

And if something happens to the child, she will definitely be very anxious, so she won't forget it in the blink of an eye.

The servant brought in a little boy, about ten years old, wearing street clothes. His hair was a little messy and looked a little oily, as if he hadn't washed his hair for ten days and a half.

His skin is a bit dark and thin, but he is quite handsome, especially his big and dark eyes, which add a lot of color to his ordinary face.

Gu Jiangyuan looked at him with furrowed eyebrows. Judging from his face, he looked nothing like anyone in his family.

Unless his mother or father cheated on him with an ordinary-looking person, this was definitely not his brother.

"cousin"

After the little boy walked in, he felt a little nervous when he saw Gu Xizhi. He called Gu Xizhi in a voice that almost only he could hear.

But because everyone had been paying attention to him, when he spoke, everyone stared at his mouth, and they could tell what he was shouting just by judging the shape of his mouth.

Gu Jiangyuan breathed a huge sigh of relief.

Fortunately, fortunately, this is definitely not his half-brother or half-brother.

【cousin? 】

[My grandma’s cousin, that’s not right. I’ve seen my grandma’s cousins, and they don’t look like this... Wait, I remembered. 】

[Isn’t this my adoptive parents’ cousin? 】

The original owner had a very good relationship with him, and this cousin was also a good cousin.

Gu Xizhi quickly called him in.

It was not even ten o'clock yet, and she was worried that he would come all the way without even eating breakfast, so she asked the kitchen to bring him breakfast.

[Why is this guy so much thinner than before? I remember he should be a little fat guy, right? 】

[Didn’t Gu Sirou give her second aunt two hundred thousand a month to support him? Seeing as how thin he is and how plainly dressed he is now, I don't know if two hundred of the two hundred thousand were spent on him. 】

When the little cousin saw the food brought by the servants, his eyes instantly lit up.

But he didn't immediately reach out to eat.

He raised his eyes and looked at Gu Xizhi timidly.

When he saw Gu Xizhi nodding to him, indicating that he could eat it, he carefully picked up a bun.

At first it was just small bites, but slowly it turned into wolfing down.

It was as if he had been hungry for a long, long time.

Lin Manni asked Gu Shicheng to entertain relatives, and she came over to sit with Gu Xizhi and the others.

Her intuition told her that if this little cousin came over, there would be melons here.

She has to be active in the first place to eat melon.

Seeing that her little cousin was in such a hurry to eat a steamed bun, she quickly brought him a glass of milk and said, "Eat slowly, no one will compete with you."

***

Ten minutes later, the little cousin ate three steamed buns and drank a glass of milk.

He wanted to continue eating, but Gu Xizhi stopped him.

"You can eat so much at once and you're not afraid of stuffing yourself to death."

The little cousin licked his tongue and reluctantly watched the servants take away the remaining food.

When he was just eating, his arms were raised and his sleeves were pulled down, exposing the injuries on his hands.

Large and small, old and new, they are shocking.

Gu Xizhi frowned: "Did my second aunt and the others beat you?"

The little cousin bit his lip and nodded.

Lin Manni also saw the injury on her little cousin's arm, and her eyes were red with heartache.

"These people are really inhuman, even beating such a small child."

Seeing her little cousin's appearance, she remembered that Gu Xizhi lived with them before returning to the Gu family.

So was she also beaten by them?

She couldn't help but shed tears. What kind of life had Zhizhi lived before.

When the little cousin saw so many strangers around him, he nodded and said nothing again. He lowered his head like a piece of wood.

Gu Xizhi can only take the initiative on his own.

She asked him again: "So you ran out because you were beaten at home and wanted to ask me for help?"

The little cousin shook his head.

After shaking his head, he opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but when he thought of so many people around him, he closed his mouth shyly.

Continue to be wood.

Gu Xizhi: "..."

Just quite tired.

"Then why did you come to me?"

I can only ask one sentence at a time.

The little cousin raised his head and looked at Gu Xizhi, "Because..."
