Chapter 20 020

A black car slowly turned into Laoliu Lane.

In early September, the willow leaves were dark green. Gu Shiqin looked absent-mindedly at the willow trees planted in front of every household, with his index fingers tilted his knees irregularly. Time flies, and he is almost forty. Although he is well maintained, the difference is still very obvious when he stands with a young man in his twenties. Wanyin still seems to be in the memory, with white skin as snowy as watery and watery eyes, but his eyebrows are always covered with a faint sorrow, which makes him feel uncomfortable.

He wanted her to be happy.

He was powerless to do anything about Xu Wangshan's death, and he had no position to interfere with the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law problem of Wanyin and Mrs. Xu. The only thing he could help was to take care of and protect her three daughters.

The car stopped.

Before stepping out of the car, Gu Shiqin subconsciously tidied the collar of the long gown.

In the Xu family courtyard, the eldest sister went to Yang's hometown to learn cooking. The second sister was studying with her mother, so Yunxi was accompanied by Wang's mother and Li's mother to play games in the yard. Seeing Uncle Li bringing a man in a dark long gown, Yunxi looked in with his head tilted for a while, his eyes lit up, and he recognized him, and obediently called Uncle Gu.

The little girl is soft and cute. Gu Shiqin smiled and hugged Yun Xi: "Does Yun Xi miss Uncle Gu?"

Yunxi nodded obediently: "I thought about it."

The voice came into the study, and Lin Wanyin's face changed slightly, but the guests came to the door, and she couldn't find a reason to avoid it.

"Let's practice later." Lin Wanyin talked about Yuxi Road where she practiced calligraphy.

Yuxi is nine years old and can tell who is good to him and who is bad to him. His father's funeral was helped by the Gu family and son, so Yuxi also likes the gentle and elegant Uncle Gu. He put down his pen and went outside excitedly to say hello to Uncle Gu.

Lin Wanyin sighed helplessly and walked out of the study in a complicated mood.

She was wearing white clothes, with bright eyebrows and bright eyes. Gu Shiqin's gaze was condensed. Fortunately, she was too old to be self-sustaining, so she did not lose her composure for too long. Holding Yunxi, Gu Shiqin nodded to Lin Wanyin from afar, and did not take the initiative to approach her. Lin Wanyin guessed that Gu Shiqin had something to do, so she asked Li's mother to go to the backyard to invite her mother-in-law, and then asked Gu Shiqin to sit in the main hall.

Gu Shiqin responded and continued to talk to Yuxi and Yunxi sisters. It was not until Old Mrs. Xu appeared that he put down Yunxi and went forward to salute.

"Aren't you busy today?" Old Mrs. Xu welcomed Gu Shiqin very much and greeted her with a smile.

Gu Shiqin said: "I suddenly remembered something and need to discuss it with the old lady and sister-in-law."

He was the same year as Xu Wangshan and had a birthday of two months, so he respectfully called Lin Wanyin the sister-in-law.

Old Mrs. Xu showed confusion and everyone went to the main hall to sit down and talk.

Gu Shiqin looked at Yuxi and said, "Beginning when Qingxi was also studying, but Qingxi had other plans, I wouldn't force her to go to school. Yuxi was only nine years old. After thinking about it, I still felt that it would be more appropriate to let Yuxi go to the girls' school to study. Now society advocates equality between men and women. When Yuxi goes to the school to study, it can not only broaden its horizons, but also make more friends. After graduation, it can find a job and be independent, and live freely."

Yuxi was overjoyed. There was a lady one year older than her in the neighbor Sun's house. She was studying in school. She was quite envious.

Old Mrs. Xu frowned. In her opinion, her sons and grandchildren must study and prosper. The girls are beautiful, gentle and virtuous in the future to find a good marriage. But this was put forward by Gu Shiqin. Old Mrs. Xu didn't want to deny it too stiffly. After thinking about it, she quietly winked at her daughter-in-law.

The mother-in-law and daughter's meaning are obvious. Lin Wanyin was embarrassed and hesitated for a moment. Lin Wanyin lowered her eyes and said, "Mr. Gu's words make sense. It's just that Yuxi is nine years old and has missed the age of school..."

Gu Shiqin interrupted her and said, "It doesn't matter. Yuxi has studied and has a foundation. You can ask the school to arrange an exam. If you pass the exam, you can transfer to the class if you pass the exam."

"Mom, I want to go to school..." Yuxi gently pulled her mother's sleeve and whispered to herself.

"Do you know how expensive the tuition is when you go to school?" Old Mrs. Xu took the initiative and stared at her granddaughter. "Your sister got up early and went to bed late to learn how to make noodle noodles. She still doesn't know how to make money in the noodle restaurant. If you don't feel sorry for your sister, you just want to put a burden on her?"

Yuxi's eyes turned red and he lowered his head.

She felt sorry for her sister, but forgot for a moment that her home is no longer the same one that was not short of money before.

"Old lady, the tuition is not expensive, it's only twenty years old." Gu Shiqin fought for Yuxi and expressed his willingness to pay the tuition for Yuxi.

Lin Wanyin didn't want to owe others favors anymore, and her tone was rarely firm: "I have troubled you too much before. I will discuss Yuxi's study with Qingxi again, so you won't have to worry about it."

Gu Shiqin looked at her, Lin Wanyin only had a daughter in her eyes.

Gu Shiqin's chest was slightly blocked, but she also understood her feelings. She changed the topic in time and asked about Qingxi's recent situation, and then said goodbye.

When he returned home, he found that his wife had invited three card friends to play cards in the living room. The sound of rubbing cards could be heard in the room. Gu Shiqin was upset and changed his clothes and walked out.

"It's almost dark, where are you going?" the eldest lady looked at him while looking at him.

The card friends laughed at her for being strict, and the eldest wife was proud of her eyes.

Gu Shiqin said impatiently: "If you have something to do, look for Mingyan."

Seeing that her husband was indeed going to her son, the eldest lady continued to play cards. Today she was lucky and had to play a few more games.

Gu Shiqin walked along the corridor to his son's villa and walked under the eaves. He heard that his son seemed to be on the phone with someone inside.

Zhao Wu is Gu Mingyan's follower. Just now the phone rang, and he called the young master to answer. Now the phone was in the young master's hand. Zhao Wu walked out tactfully and ran into Gu Shiqin head-on. Zhao Wu raised his eyebrows and quickly notified him. Before Gu Mingyan's phone was warm, he saw that his father was coming, and he hung up directly. He stood up from the cowhide sofa.

"Father." He called him calmly.

Gu Shiqin glanced at the phone and asked suspiciously: "Who called?"

Gu Mingyan: "Student."

Gu Shiqin looked at Zhao Wu who was guarding outside with his neck shrank, and his face turned ugly: "Female classmate? Mingyan, I warn you, Qingxi is a good girl, I can't control you making trouble abroad. Now that I'm back to Hangzhou, you can break up with those unreasonable women as soon as possible."

Gu Mingyan pursed his lips and leaned on the sofa and said, "It's broken, and only Qingxi will come from now on." After saying that, seeing that his father's face was still calm, Gu Mingyan added, "Don't worry, my father, I'm not blind. Qingxi has come to Hangzhou, and I can't see anyone else."

Gu Shiqin believed in his son's eyes and looked at his son a few times. Gu Shiqin was a little sour and jealous.

My son is lucky than him. He met Qingxi when he was single. If he had not married early on his parents' orders, he and Wanyin...

The woman's cold face that refused him appeared before her. Gu Shiqin closed her eyes and rubbed her forehead for a while. He whispered: "Qingxi worships a bowl of immortals as his teacher. Recently, he has been learning to make noodles from morning and late. He has to go to the lake to run at five in the morning. How can he make his fiancée happy? Do you need me to teach you?"

Gu Mingyan looked at his father in disbelief.

He hadn't gone to find her for only three days, but Qingxi actually worshiped his master?

After being surprised, Gu Mingyan smiled. His little fiancée is becoming more and more capable.

As night fell, Qingxi led Cuicui and Xiaolan home. Tomorrow, Mr. Yang was going to the hospital for a follow-up visit. She gave her a day off. Thinking of being able to take a day off, Qingxi felt that she was not so tired and was planning to spend more time with her mother and sisters tonight.

Unexpectedly, the whole family was there in the main hall, and the grandmother in the main seat pursed her lips tightly, and something happened at a glance.

Qingxi looked at her mother in confusion.

Lin Wanyin talked about going to school in Yuxi.

Qingxi turned his head and asked her second sister: "Does Yuxi want to go?"

Yuxi shook his head sensibly, but his little face was covered with loneliness.

Qingxi secretly vowed to spoil her two sisters for her father, but she decided without thinking: "Twenty yuan a year is not expensive..."

"The account is not calculated like this." Old Mrs. Xu snorted and looked at her second granddaughter and said, "I must make school uniforms when I enter the school, right? The various expenses of the textbooks are scattered in a year, and it may cost a lot."

"I offer you as much." As for the noodle restaurant, with Mr. Yang's exquisite idea, Qingxi was full of confidence and hugged a sister with one hand. She smiled easily: "Please offer to Yuxi first. Yunxi also needs to study when she grows up. Sister Yiqiu knows four foreign languages, and there are many novels in foreign languages ​​at home. You two will study hard and translate them to your sister in the future."

Yunxi was confused, and Yuxi asked worriedly: "Do you have money?"

Qingxi rubbed his sister's head: "You will know then that sister will make a lot of money, just study with peace of mind."

The two little girls laughed, and Old Mrs. Xu covered her chest and scolded her granddaughter in anger: "I know how to brag every day, I see what you end up fighting!"

Qingxi smiles without saying a word.

After Mrs. Xu left, Lin Wanyin asked Yuxi to coax her sister to go to bed. She talked to her eldest daughter alone: ​​"Mom also thinks that Yuxi is good to study, but she has thought that the tuition fee cannot be carried by you alone. Tomorrow, my mother will ask Mrs. Sun next door to help me ask if there are any ladies who hire Guqin teacher. Even if you earn ten yuan a month, it will be enough for your two sisters to study."

"Mom, I can support you, you believe me." Qingxi was not afraid of hardship, but he was reluctant to ask his mother, who was born as a lady in the official family, to work.

Lin Wanyin hugged her daughter, kissed her head gently, and said softly: "You concentrate on learning cooking, Xu Qingtang depends on you, and you will leave her home to your mother. It will not be tiring to teach the piano any longer. Mom will find something to do and feel more at ease."

Qingxi leaned against her mother's arms and secretly shed a few tears.

This Saturday, there is no need to learn to attend the morning jog, but it is still necessary. The master and servant of Qingxi got up as promised.

Before leaving the door, Qingxi squatted in front of Fugui, shook the purse wrapped in a layer of oil paper in his hand: "Guess Fugui, what is it here?"

Fugui didn't know that he only smelled the meat. He hugged his master's arm with his two front paws and wanted to try it now.

Qingxi stood up and looked at the little wolf dog that was acting coquettishly around her, and felt very proud. Later, Fugui would be greedy for Gu Sanye's dried meat pie, so she would take out her own special pork pie. Stabilizing Fugui is the first goal. If Gu Sanye's big black dog is also greedy and avenge Gu Sanye's teasing Fugui, it would be even better.

Imagine the situation, Qingxi walked out the door lightly, and then found that a car was parked outside the house! The headlights of the car were on, illuminating a large area and illuminating Gu Mingyan's current appearance. The man was wearing a white sportswear, leaning against the body of the car with his hands on his chest, looking at her with a smile on his face.

Qingxi stayed there.

Gu Mingyan walked over and explained in a low voice: "I heard from my father that you are running in the morning. I haven't exercised for a long time. I'll run with you this morning."

Qingxi didn't need him to accompany her, but Gu Mingyan had arrived, and it was still five o'clock in the morning, so she couldn't refuse.

"Thank you, Brother Gu." Qingxi turned his head slightly and said, "I don't understand why these men like to wear shorts on such a cold morning.

"You guys run away too?" Gu Mingyan asked Xiaolan.

Xiaolan told the truth: "Let's be your company for the lady."

Gu Mingyan said, "Go back and sleep, I'll take the lady back after running."

Xiaolan and Cuicui looked at Qingxi at the same time.

Qingxi looked at Gu Mingyan, nodded, and treated her as a day off for the two maids.

"This dog is also going?" Gu Mingyan looked at Fugui strangely, and wanted to tease the dog with the tip of his shoes.
