Chapter 233: Another Father (2)
"Old madam, what did dad ask the old man and the old gentleman to do? Dad has been dead for so many years?"
After the dinner ended, Jin Xinpeng couldn't help but ask the old lady.
The old lady who heads the Jin family is indeed different. This old lady has her own study.
At this moment, the old lady is reading in the study room, which has been her habit for many years.
"The old gentleman said that I can only talk to the head of the house, so I can't ask any more questions. Your elder brother is sleeping at the moment. When he wakes up tomorrow, I can ask again. If so, the head of the house is not stupid, and he will naturally call a meeting.
Let me tell each room that you have been tired for a day today, so you should rest early. Tomorrow, you and the uncle of the first room will accompany the old man around to see how he feels... Also, the meal will be served tomorrow.
Second bedroom, the old gentleman likes to be clean..."
The old lady spoke calmly, almost arranging things for tomorrow as she spoke.
"Yes...then Xinpeng will retire first."
The old lady nodded, and when she saw the person leaving, she put down the book in her hand and her expression darkened.
"did not hear?"
The old woman who had been waiting silently behind her nodded slightly and said, "The old man's voice is very soft. Because the head of the Gu family is seriously ill and he is close to us, our people are farther away, so..."
The old lady remained silent after hearing this. After a while, she stood up and walked around the room with her head down.
"This matter must be clarified. What needs to be entrusted to an outsider? And so many years have passed... My eyelids have been twitching so much recently, and I feel a little panicked. I always feel that something will happen..."
"Old Madam, haven't you already made arrangements for the replacement of the head of the family? Now that the clan order has been stabilized for the time being, Old Madam must have not had a good rest recently..."
The pace of the two elders slowed down a bit, "Have you ever had a good rest in these years? There are so many things, and you don't have to worry about that one thing? That's all. Fortunately, I really worry too much. By the way, look at that girl.
How? How come they look so similar? The more they look, the more they look alike... Do you think it’s possible..."
"Old madam, please stop thinking about it. How is this possible... There are many people who look like this in the world. I have been keeping a close eye on you today. If there is anything wrong, it will definitely not escape your eyes. Besides... I went with the eldest lady back then.
It’s impossible that no one in the capital will survive!”
After hearing what the old lady said, the old grandma quickly rejected it, this is impossible!
The old lady herself also observed carefully. If true, the girl's reaction should not be like this. Moreover, she tested it several times. Maybe she was overly worried. "It's better to have people go to the capital to investigate thoroughly before you feel at ease. Sou He will not take it lightly."
Accepting a student, an orphan girl, not to mention asking her to be her teacher, even meeting her is difficult, someone must have recommended her. Aren’t Jinzhen and the other sisters going to go shopping with her tomorrow? You can arrange for two more smart ones to follow...
"
The old lady looked at the bright moon outside the window thoughtfully. She had to be cautious. Over the years, she had relied on caution to get to where she is today. She would never allow anyone to ruin her hard work for so many years.
At this moment, Chuxue had no time to think about anything, and was embarrassedly apologizing to Dongli.
"Uncle Dong...I was in a hurry at the time, so..."
"So you're using me as a shield?"
Dongli and Sohe looked at each other and smiled, teasing Chuxue...
Chuxue lowered her head in embarrassment, "I'm sorry..."
"If that's the case, then let's make it true. A man's words are hard to follow, and so should a woman. If you don't mind it... how about you become my goddaughter?"
Dongli looked at Chuxue with a red face and a smile.
Chu Xue looked up at the other party fiercely, this...
"Uncle Dong...are you kidding me?"
"You girl, how can you joke about something like this? Maybe this is fate!" Souhe pinched his beard and laughed. This girl is indeed a bit pitiful. It's not a loss for this godfather to recognize him. This idiot
The girl is still hesitant.
Chuxue was actually either hesitant or a little confused.
Before, there was no difference between Yun Shangde's father and his father. Later, when she found out about her life experience, it was hard to describe the cheap father of the current emperor. Therefore, she was not very... cold to the word father.
Can
What happened today was originally because she was at fault first and used Uncle Dong as a shield. Now that Uncle Dong said this, she should just go with the flow.
"If Uncle Dong is not joking, then that is Chuxue's luck!"
Anyway, it's more reliable than those two.
Dongli laughed, looked at Chuxue for a moment, and then took out a jade pendant from his sleeve pocket, "Take it, you will be my goddaughter, Dongli!"
"Congratulations!" Upon seeing this, Souhe quickly smiled and congratulated. Seeing that Chuxue was still looking at him with a stupid look on his face, he couldn't help but remind him: "Why are you still standing there? Why don't you accept the salute!"
When I first woke up from the snow like a dream, I didn’t look much at it. Anyway, I saw that the quality of the jade was good, and it was something I brought with me. I thought it must be valuable, so I didn’t dare to neglect it. I stretched out my hands to take it solemnly, took three steps back and knelt down.
salute.
"Daughter, meet your father!"
This time he called "Daddy", but Ca Dongli screamed with joy. It was originally a mistake, but now he feels great.
"Get up, remember from now on, you are no longer an orphan, you have a father! If anyone bullies you, tell your father, and he will help you deal with him!"
Listen, listen to these words, these are the words of a father. Chu Xue looked at Dong Li and was inexplicably touched.
She's really lucky, isn't she?
"My daughter remembers it!"
This sweet-mouthed girl is both a daughter and a father, and Dongli's eyes are almost doubled.
"It's a happy event, let's have a drink later!"
Souhe was happy because this girl didn't know that she had gotten a big deal.
Chuxue was helped up and carefully put away the jade pendant. She was still a little dizzy. It was like a dream. She suddenly had a father, but... it felt pretty good. If her aunt knew about it, she would definitely be happy for her!
"Congratulations Mr. Dong, congratulations Miss!"
Tao'er was also a little confused, but the old gentleman was right, this was indeed a happy event. At least what Mr. Dongli said just now made people feel warm in their hearts. From now on, many people will love the young lady.
but…
The young lady is actually...a princess, and the current Holy Lord is the young lady's father...
"Xue girl, what do you think of the Jin family? It's more prestigious to have the head of the Jin family as your godfather than to be my daughter. Do you not regret it?"
Dongli had already recognized her daughter, and Dongli joked casually that he was indeed caught off guard at the time.
Chuxue narrowed her eyes and smiled, "The scenery given by others is not considered scenery. It is up to the daughter of the scenery to earn it herself!"
"Good girl! You have a lot of potential!" This daughter did not admit her mistake! Dongli laughed, he was really happy.
Souhe smiled, and his daughter recognized him!
"By the way, Girl Xue, the things I have to do as a teacher have been completed. You can make arrangements for the rest of the trip." Souhe told Chuxue, meaning that he could leave at any time.
Chuxue nodded to express that she understood, and she did not plan to stay for a long time, because... she would come again, and there was no need to rush if she was not in a hurry...
"Sir, I'll stay for two more days and leave the day after tomorrow, but... Chuxue is thinking that she won't be staying at Jin's house tomorrow. Since she's out for a study trip, she has to go to the city to find a place to stay for two days, so it's not good to stay at Jin's house all the time.
"Excuse me." There are so many people in the family, so we can just have a meal with you and have ten tables...
Besides, it was inconvenient because she always felt like there was a pair of eyes staring at her at the Jin family all the time...
