Chapter 17 Daily life in Kapok Town 3

Although the No. [-] Primary School in Mumian Town is small and not large in scale, most of the students are students from the neighborhood, and the school teachers know the basics. Therefore, most of the old residents in Mumian Town choose the No. [-] Primary School in Mumian Town.

After school time, there were people coming and going at the gate of the No. [-] Primary School in Mumian Township. The parents waiting on the side greeted them one after another. They took their children, carried them on their backs, and hugged them, and went home laughing and boisterously.

Because of the incident of child abduction and trafficking, recently parents have come to pick up their children. Although Gu's father and Gu's mother wanted to pick up their children, they were both rejected by their own children.Gu's father and Gu's mother had no choice but to ask their eldest brother Gu Zhen to pick up their children.

Now, Gu Youjing is standing at the school gate, eating a popsicle with Ji Jingrui, you eat one bite at a time and I enjoy it.

Gu Zhen stood aside, looking at them with a smile.

When Ji Xiaolan got out of the car, she saw Gu Zhen smiling. Ji Xiaolan's heart skipped a beat. Is this the current head of the Gu family, Gu Zhen?

The Gu family is not well-known in Mumian Town, but in Yunhe County, it is a big family name, a big family, with dozens of acres of farms and a large fruit forest. The annual income is very considerable, and they also run a tea plantation.From the information found, it can be seen that Gu Zhen is the patriarch of this family, but for some reason, the information found on the Gu family is very limited, except that the Gu family is a big surname in Yunhe County, other things are very vague. It is extremely low-key in Yunhe County.Not to mention in Kapok Town.

However, one thing is certain, the Gu family treats Ji Jingrui very well and loves him as their own child.

Ji Xiaolan walked towards Gu Zhen. Gu Zhen, who had already spotted Ji Xiaolan when the car stopped, turned around and looked at the beautiful woman walking towards him. She was indeed similar to Xiao Rui by six or seven points, and from the appearance, This woman and Xiaorui are indeed related by blood.

"Hi, I'm Ji Xiaolan." Ji Xiaolan said with a smile, holding out her hand.

Gu Zhen nodded lightly, stretched out his hand, shook it lightly, and then let go immediately, "Hello, I'm Gu Zhen."

"If we're not mistaken, I'm Xiaorui's aunt." Ji Xiaolan looked at Ji Jingrui who was eating popsicles with Gu Youjing, and said softly with soft eyes.

Gu Zhen was silent for a moment, then said calmly, "Maybe we should do a medical appraisal?"

When Ji Xiaolan heard it, her eyes lit up immediately, and she asked in a trembling voice with joy, "Are you willing to do this appraisal?"

Gu Zhen nodded. This matter was decided after discussing with his younger brother and younger siblings. The other party finally found Xiao Rui, and he would definitely not give up easily. The child they are looking for is the best. If Xiaorui is really the child they are looking for, it doesn't matter. It is a good thing for Xiaorui to have relatives. The most important point is that he can be 100% sure that Xiaorui will never left! ——Because Xiaojing is there.

"However, you must sign a letter of guarantee. You cannot take Xiao Rui away unless Xiao Rui himself is willing to go with you."

Gu Youjing, who was listening to them with his eyes open, blinked and looked at Ji Jingrui with a calm face, heaving a sigh of relief, this is all right, as long as Xiaorui is not willing, they can't take Xiaorui away.

Ji Xiaolan was startled, then hesitated for a moment, looked at the calm Ji Jingrui, the child didn't even look at her, she couldn't help feeling helpless, if it was really the second brother's child, how could his father agree to let him grow up in someone else's parents ?

"This matter...I want to think about it..."

Gu Zhen nodded, it doesn't matter, it's best not to do an appraisal!

"Xiaojing, Xiaorui, we should go." Gu Zhen said, holding Gu Youjing and Ji Jingrui one by one, and left.

Ji Xiaolan watched Ji Jingrui follow Gu Zhen away without looking back, opened her mouth, then closed it again.

At this time, Ji Xiaolan's cell phone rang.

"Hello……"

"Brother? Are you here? Just right, I have something to tell you... Okay... I see, Thirteenth Street? Chaoyang Hotel? Wait! Brother, you mean Thirteenth Street?!"

At this time, on Thirteenth Street, Zhou Yun and others were looking around, and the old monk was talking to a beautiful woman in his thirties with a smile.

"I'm sorry, Junior Sister, I have to bother to prepare a place for us."

"Brother, why are you being polite! They are all cultivators, and they are convenient for others!" The woman in her thirties covered her mouth and said with a smile, her beautiful Danfeng eyes glanced at Zhou Yun and the others, a little puzzled, the senior brother just said I want to go to Mumian Town with some fellow practitioners to do something...why did even the people from the "imperial court" come?

Seeing the woman's puzzled look, the old monk explained with a smile, "The one over there is Ji Xiu, a member of the imperial court. He came here to find his missing eldest nephew."

The woman suddenly said, oh, you are here to find someone, then the person you are looking for must not be easy.

At this time, Zhou Yun was staring at the door of Gu's house, and the very cold and beautiful woman beside him also noticed it and looked over at the same time.

"very special……"

"A magic circle was used?" The big man came over and interrupted.

Zhou Yun didn't speak, but just stared at the door of the Gu family silently.

The woman saw that Zhou Yun and the others were staring at the gate of the Gu family, frowned, and turned to look at the old monk. When the old monk saw it, he smiled comfortingly at the woman, turned around and walked towards Zhou Yun and the others, and spoke with a smile. , "Hehe... what are you looking at?"

"Master, look, there is a magic circle!" The big man said, pointing to the door of Gu's house, very puzzled, "Do we have a fellow Taoist surnamed Gu?"

"Tie Zhu, having a magic circle doesn't mean that this family is a cultivator." The old monk said meaningfully.

After hearing this, Zhou Yun turned his head to look at the old monk, "Master seems to know something?"

"I don't know anything..., I just think, this place is really nice, um, it smells good, it's clean, and it's comfortable to stay here." The old monk said with a smile, his benevolent eyebrows made Zhou Yun even more suspicious.

——This old monk, whose Dharma name is Juehui, is profound in Taoism and has a good personality. This time the master invited him to come, but he never expected that he would really come. After all, Master Juehui has never been involved with the government of the world , but did not expect that Master Juehui came.

After coming to Kapok Town, Zhou Yun felt that Master Juehui seemed to be familiar with Kapok Town?

Did Master Juehui come to Kapok Town before?Or have a different fate with someone in Kapok Town?

Is it because of this woman named Wu Niangzi, the lay junior sister of Master Juehui?

But Zhou Yun didn't ask any more questions, but just took a look at the door of the Gu family.

At this time, a voice sounded, "Fifth Lady, is this your friend?"

Gu's mother, who had just returned home from shopping, looked suspiciously at the few people standing outside the house, and one of them was a bald monk. What are they doing?Why are you all surrounded in front of her house, didn't you see the neighbors on the left and right poking their heads?

The fifth lady followed the sound and saw Mother Gu——Lin Xiuyun looked at them suspiciously holding a vegetable basket, and said with a sneer, "Xiuyun! I'm so sorry! These are my friends! Ah, this old monk is me As I mentioned to you, my elder brother, Master Juehui, this one is Zhou Yun."

Zhou Yunqian smiled, "Hello."

Lin Xiuyun was still full of doubts, but she still smiled politely, "Hello."

"This is Tiezhu, this is Fanyun." Wu Niangzi introduced them one by one, and when she was about to introduce Ji Xiu, Ji Xiu took a step forward and said in a deep voice, "Hello, Ms. Lin, I'm Ji Xiu Xiu, if nothing unexpected happens, Ji Jingrui is my nephew."

Fifth Lady was stunned, "Ah?!"

Lin Xiuyun was taken aback, and Zhou Yun was also a little surprised. Why is this Gu family the one that adopted the Ji family's child?

At this time, Gu Xun, who had just come back from get off work, just happened to hear what Ji Xiu said, so Gu Xun took over the conversation, rushed in front of the dark-faced Lin Xiuyun and said, "Since this is the case, let's all come in."

Lin Xiuyun glared dissatisfiedly at Gu Xun, Gu Xun just patted Lin Xiuyun on the shoulder reassuringly, and opened the door, allowing Zhou Yunjixiu and others to enter.

Master Juehui stood at the door and Tie Zhu Fanyun looked at each other, what should we do?This seems to be someone else's family business?It's not good for them to go in, is it?

Just as Master Juehui and the others were standing at the door, hesitating whether to go to the Chaoyang Hotel with Wu Niangzi, or to wait for Zhou Yun at the door, Gu Zhen, Gu Youjing, and Ji Jingrui came back.Ji Xiaolan was still following behind.

There is a subtle induction between ascetics, and they can know whether each other is a cultivator or not as soon as they see each other. (Of course, except for Gu Youjing and Ji Jingrui, "Fuxi Tianshu" contains exercises to hide aura).

Therefore, as soon as Gu Zhen, Jue Hui and others met each other, they knew that the other party was a cultivator.

"Hello, Brother Dao." Juehui immediately put his hands together and said with a smile.

But Gu Zhen just clasped his fists casually, then patted Gu Youjing's head, and said in a low voice, "Xiaojing, you and Xiaorui go back first."

Gu Youjing nodded, Ji Jingrui took the initiative to hold Gu Youjing's hand, and the two children walked back hand in hand under the gaze of everyone.

Gu Zhen watched the two children go back hand in hand, and then turned to look at Juehui and the others. He didn't want Xiaojing and Xiaorui to step into the world of practice. That world is too complicated, and now Xiaojing has a close relationship with the underworld. relationship, it is even more impossible to step into the practice world.

Gu Zhen glanced regretfully, then turned his gaze to Ji Xiaolan who was quietly standing aside and staring at him thoughtfully, "My brother should be back now, you can go in and have a good talk with him."

After hearing this, Ji Xiaolan glanced at Juehui and the others. Although she didn't know who these people were, she knew that these people should be the people in the cultivation world that Zhou Yun said.Does Gu Zhen know these people?No, it should be said that Gu Zhen is the same as these people!

——Then, the Gu family is intriguing!

Ji Xiaolan's eyes flickered, and she turned and entered the gate of Gu's house.

It's not that Gu Zhen didn't notice Ji Xiaolan's probing eyes, but he didn't care, they were sitting up straight in the Gu family, so what were they afraid of!Everything about the Gu family is on the surface, and they are not afraid of state agencies to investigate!

As for the practice world, since ancient times, what practitioners are most afraid of is false karma. What's more, for senior practitioners and big families who practice, who doesn't know about the Gu family?

——And as long as people in the practice world go to inquire, I believe they will avoid the Gu family soon, and maybe they will go around the Gu family from now on!

——Who dares to approach the Gu family who has been condemned by heaven? !

Gu Zhen sneered in his heart. For hundreds of years, the Gu family has been asking for help everywhere, but none of the so-called practitioners offered a helping hand!Isn't it because he was afraid of the Gu family's punishment?

The news that the Gu family was relieved of the scourge has been kept secret, they don't want others to know, apart from being afraid of trouble, they also want to protect the two children in the family.

To be honest, he really hoped that those cultivators in front of him who didn't know about the Gu family could inquire carefully, so that the "bad name" of the Gu family would resound in the practice world again, so that unnecessary disturbances could be avoided.

Gu Youjing and Ji Jingrui entered the house hand in hand, as usual, as soon as they entered the house, Gu Youjing shouted, "Dad, Mom, we are back!"

At this time, in the living room, Gu Xun and Lin Xiuyun were sitting with Ji Xiu and Zhou Yun. The atmosphere among the four of them was a bit dignified. Upon hearing this voice, the gloomy Lin Xiuyun subconsciously laughed.

She got up and looked at Gu Youjing and Ji Jingrui who came rushing in with soft eyebrows and a smile on the corner of her mouth, "You're back? Mom made some pear soup in the kitchen, drink some first, and mom will cook something delicious for you later."

When Gu Youjing heard this, he smiled brightly, "Thank you, Mom! Xiao Rui, let's go and have pear soup."

"Wait! Xiaorui?! You are Xiaorui!" Suddenly recalling the suppressed and excited voice, Gu Youjing and Ji Jingrui stopped in their tracks.

Gu Youjing looked sideways, and saw that the middle-aged man in military uniform had a five point similar face to Xiao Rui's. At this time, he looked at Xiao Rui with obvious suppressed excitement.

This person is...Xiao Rui's relative?

Gu Youjing turned his head to look at Ji Jingrui who was beside him. This stupid child still looked calm and calm, his dark eyes were very indifferent, he glanced at the middle-aged man, then turned to look at Gu Youjing, "Jing?" The eyes that looked at the man were very indifferent, but when he turned his head to look at himself, they were very gentle and full of doubts.

Gu Youjing sighed helplessly, this kid is real!

"Xiaojing, Xiaorui, go eat pear soup first. Go upstairs and do your homework after eating." Gu Xun spoke.

After hearing this, Ji Jingrui took Gu Youjing's hand and walked towards the kitchen. The middle-aged man clenched his fists tightly and watched as Ji Jingrui took Gu Youjing's hand and walked towards the kitchen.

Gu Xun looked at the man's straight back that seemed to be trembling slightly, Gu Xun lowered his eyes halfway, he didn't intend to occupy his nephew's mind, but Xiao Rui was very special, except for Xiao Jing, he never got close to anyone , even if he is called father by Xiaorui, Xiaorui has always seemed close but alienated, but he has more trust than irrelevant outsiders.

And why such Xiaorui would reject others thousands of miles away? Isn't it because of his childhood experience!

Therefore, unless Xiao Rui is willing, they will never let them take Xiao Rui away!

After Gu Youjing and Ji Jingrui finished drinking pear soup in the small kitchen and went upstairs hand in hand, the middle-aged man finally spoke after being silent for a long time.

"I don't need to do an appraisal, but I can confirm that it is my brother Ji Ming's child." The middle-aged man, namely Ji Xiu, said in a deep voice.

Gu Xun and Lin Xiuyun looked at Ji Xiu, but didn't answer. They knew that Ji Xiu hadn't finished speaking.

Ji Xiu closed his eyes slightly, thinking of his younger brother Ji Ming's death ten years ago, he couldn't hide his pain.

"Ten years ago, my younger brother Ji Ming took on an urgent mission. Later, the mission was successful, but my younger brother died. He died a terrible death." Ji Xiu said hoarsely, "My sister-in-law Wen Fang, After receiving the news of her death, she couldn't bear the shock and gave birth prematurely, and she also died when she gave birth to Xiao Rui. The only blood they left behind was Xiao Rui."

Gu Xun and Lin Xiuyun were startled and looked at each other.

"Our family loves Xiaorui very much, but we didn't expect that when Xiaorui was two years old, he suddenly disappeared in the room. Later we found out that he was abducted and trafficked by magic. We went crazy I went to look for him in the same way, but no matter how hard we searched, we couldn’t find him, until this time, we finally got news about him in Mumian Town..." At this point, Ji Xiu suddenly stood up and looked at Gu Xun and Lin Xiuyun said in a hoarse voice, "I have read the files from five years ago. The two are great benefactors of our Ji family! If there were no two, the current Xiaorui would be..." Ji Xiu didn't say anything more, but But he bowed deeply.

Gu Xun and Lin Xiuyun hurriedly stood up, Gu Xun said, "Don't dare! This is what we should do!"

"This is the fate between Xiaorui and our family..." Lin Xiuyun also said hastily.

At this time, the originally dignified atmosphere gradually eased.

Zhou Yun watched from the side, smiling in his heart. From this point of view, the Ji family should take back their children soon.

But, unexpectedly, after Gu Xun and Lin Xiuyun sat down again, Gu Xun said seriously, "Since Mr. Ji already knew what Xiaorui looked like five years ago, I'll just say it straight. Xiaorui's situation is very serious." , until now, except for Xiaojing, Xiaorui is still very wary of other people!"

Speaking of this, Gu Xun looked at Lin Xiuyun and ordered, "Xiuyun, bring the report from that year."

Lin Xiuyun nodded, got up and walked towards the stairs.

After hearing this, Zhou Yun looked at Gu Xun curiously, "What do you say?"

Before Gu Xun could speak, Gu Zhen's voice sounded from the door of the living room, "Because of the experience of being abused and beaten, I was unconsciously wary of others, and in order to protect myself, I unconsciously closed my heart."

Gu Zhen walked over while talking, there was Ji Xiaolan behind him, Zhou Yun looked at Gu Zhen, and was stunned, a cultivator?

Gu Zhen didn't look at Zhou Yun, but just stared at Ji Xiu, and said solemnly, "This is our insistence, Xiao Rui must be willing, otherwise you can't take him away."

Ji Xiaolan frowned as she listened. She hadn't come in just now and had been looking at Gu Zhen at the gate. She thought she would see what Gu Zhen would do, but she didn't expect that Gu Zhen just said something in a cold voice. Sentence, turned around and came in.

Now, listening to Gu Zhen's words, Ji Xiaolan frowned. Although Xiaorui had such an experience back then, maybe she would get better when she returned to her relatives. After all...they are Xiaorui's relatives, right?Just getting to know each other, Xiao Rui will definitely be wary of them, but as time goes on, Xiao Rui will understand that they are his real relatives!

——Also, the most important point, Xiao Rui is only 1 years old now!Xiao Rui still doesn't understand anything!

The Gu family actually let the ten-year-old Xiaorui choose. Is it because Xiaorui doesn't understand anything?

Just as Ji Xiaolan was about to speak, Ji Xiu spoke up.

"I promise. As long as Xiao Rui is unwilling, we will never take him away."

"Brother!" Ji Xiaolan was astonished!

Zhou Yun also looked at Ji Xiu in surprise.

Ji Xiu looked solemn and serious, ignored Ji Xiaolan's exclamation, and said slowly, "We have only one goal, and that is for Xiao Rui to be safe and grow up happily. This is what I sent in front of my brother Ji Ming's grave. An oath! It is also my father's wish. Therefore, we will not take Xiao Rui away regardless of his wishes. But—"

After hearing these words, Gu Xun felt relieved, and felt admiration for Ji Xiu, so he nodded seriously and said, "Please speak."

"We will settle down in Mumian Town, and we will slowly walk into Xiaorui's life, so that the child will know us and accept us." Ji Xiu said.

After hearing this, Gu Zhen and Gu Xun looked at each other, their hearts trembled, this Ji Xiu is really not to be underestimated!

"Of course." Gu Xun said with a smile.

Gu Zhen also added, "This is as it should be."

Ji Xiaolan also laughed at this time, the elder brother's move is really powerful.Settled down in Mumian Town, approached Xiaorui openly, and their Gu family had to help Xiaorui accept them.Well, the Gu family has nothing to say.

At this time, Gu Youjing looked at the image in the void, shaking his head and admiringly, this Ji Xiu is really amazing!

"Xiaorui, you're so powerful, uncle!" Gu Youjing said to Ji Jingrui with a smile.

Ji Jingrui was looking down at the bamboo slips in his hand. On the bamboo slips, line by line of messages were drawn, which were the messages of Zhou Yun and others.Hearing Gu Youjing's words, he raised his head and looked at the image in the void. It was the Xuanguang Mirror. Jing secretly hid the Xuanguang Mirror on the first floor, and now he was watching the scene on the first floor live.

"Xiao Rui, do you want to recognize them?" Gu Youjing asked abruptly.

Ji Jingrui shook his head without thinking, "No, they have nothing to do with me."

When Gu Youjing heard this, he shook his head and said seriously, "You can't think like this, the gift of childbearing is greater than the sky. Xiaorui, although your parents are gone, your grandfather and your relatives are all there, and they care about you. You, I have raised you for two years, and I have been looking for you for so long, this kind of care and love is precious."

Ji Jingrui didn't speak, but remained silent.

Seeing Ji Jingrui's silent and quiet look, Gu Youjing scratched his head, leaned over, put his arms around Ji Jingrui's shoulders, and said seriously, "The most taboo thing for us practitioners is to owe karma. Xiaorui, I don't want you to accept it right away. You just accept it little by little."

"scene……"

"Hey?"

"Are you going to drive me away?"

Gu Youjing stared wide-eyed, inexplicably astonished, where is this going?Gu Youjing blurted out, "What nonsense are you talking about! When am I going to drive you away?"

——Is it easy for his old man to work so hard to raise a stupid child?He also counted on this stupid kid to repay his kindness in the future, and reciprocate it!

How could you drive him away?

After hearing this, Ji Jingrui nodded slowly, "Jing, I understand."

"Hey?" Know what?Gu Youjing looked at Ji Jingrui in a daze, confused, did Xiaorui really know? ?
