Chapter 54: Gathering
Gu Mingxin was carried by her grandmother to Lanxi Courtyard, her stepmother's yard, because today is the fourteenth, it is the day for their family to eat together, and the fifteenth and the first day of the new year are to eat at her grandmother's Chunhui Courtyard, and everyone usually eats in their own yards.
Gu Mingxin rarely participates in such a family meal together, because she does not live in the same courtyard with her stepmother, but lives alone in the Lanyun Courtyard of her previous biological mother, and now Lanxin Courtyard, it is not that her stepmother and grandmother don't want her to live with them, but that she is a special child who is not suitable for a new environment, this is what Dr. Liao said, of course, there is also her own contribution to it, such as crying when she arrives in the new environment, not liking to eat such a little trick, naturally staying in the original yard, Who wants to live with someone else? It's going to be inconvenient to do things in the future, so forgive her for some of her little troubles.
As soon as the mother-in-law guarding the door saw Mama Chen coming with her, she went in to report, and soon Mama Su, the nurse of the sixteenth mother, came out and said: "Miss An, the eldest lady is here, Mrs. is waiting for the mother-in-law early, and I don't know how to remember our eldest lady." ”
Mama Chen: "Our young lady also thinks about Madame, and it was noisy early in the morning, but the weather was not very good. “
Gu Mingxin listened to the two grandmothers each say good things for their masters, and felt that they had reached a realm beyond their reach when they opened their eyes and said nonsense, saying that their aunt remembered themselves, which may be true, but whether there is anything like Mama Su said is only clear in her heart, and her little doll knows what it means to think, but Mama Chen is just saying good things for herself, but these are all understandable, what to say in what environment, whether it is ancient or modern, it seems that she has something to learn.
When she arrived at the house, Sixteen Niang took her over and instructed the people around her: "Go and bring the warm goat's milk to the eldest lady." The maid quickly brought the goat's milk, and Sixteen Niang picked a spoonful and fed Gu Mingxin and said softly: "Come, our sister Xin will drink a bowl of milk first, and your father will come back first after a while, and then start the meal later." “
Of course, Gu Mingxin will not get along with her body, and this time period is usually the time for her to eat, so she drank it very obediently, Sixteen Niang breathed a sigh of relief, it is good that the stepdaughter does not make a fuss, this is the first time they have gathered so together to eat together, and just now Yuzhu came over and said that the prince would come over later, she was afraid that the stepdaughter would be hungry or cry when she arrived here, these are all examples, and now the stepdaughter is not making a fuss, she is really relieved.
Gu Mingxin drank a bowl of milk and played boringly for a while, and her father and brother came over, and the elder brother first saluted Sixteen Niang and ran to Gu Mingxin's side, took out a straw dragonfly and handed it to Gu Mingxin and said, "Sister, does the little dragonfly like it?" ”
Gu Mingxin took it and said happily, "I like it." ”
Gu Mingyu was very happy to see that his sister liked his gift, and continued: "I'll send you a kite tomorrow, butterfly, okay?" ”
Gu Mingxin nodded happily and said, "Okay." "Whatever this little brother gives her, she will say yes.
Gu Shizi watched the two children get along harmoniously, felt full of heart, walked over and picked up his daughter, and felt that his daughter seemed to be a little heavier, but it was still much worse than other children, and took out a rabbit carved from rosewood to tempt Gu Mingxin and said, "Sister Xin, call Daddy, I'll give it to you." ”
Gu Mingxin turned her head, took the wood carving but didn't speak, she was not a real child, how could she be tempted, every time she played such a trick, this father really wouldn't coax a child.
Gu Shizi saw that his daughter didn't scream and felt that it was really difficult for his daughter to call Daddy, so he took a jade carved puppy and continued to tempt and said, "Well, Daddy, this puppy is yours." ”
Gu Mingxin took the puppy, turned her head again, and continued not to bark, Gu Shizi felt a little defeated, and was about to continue to lure with things, but Gu Mingyu interjected and said, "Dad, I'll teach my sister to call me." Saying that, Gu Mingyu stepped forward and said, "Sister, come and call my brother, my brother will bring you good things tomorrow." “
Gu Mingxin immediately called: "Brother." “
Gu Mingyu immediately happily asked his father for credit and said, "Dad, my sister called me." “
Gu Shizi suddenly felt that his son was really an eyesore, and continued to take out a golden monkey and said, "Sister Xin, come and call Dad, Dad." “
Gu Mingxin originally wanted to take the golden monkey and call him dad for face, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, Shizi's father moved away, and he couldn't get it, Gu Mingxin was a little dumbfounded, and Shizi's father took the monkey over and said: "Come, call Dad, Dad will give it to you, be good, call Dad." “
Gu Mingxinjue, as a pseudo-child, couldn't just give in, resolutely didn't call his father, and didn't want anything like the golden monkey, so he stuffed the rabbit and puppy in his hand into the hands of the son, turned his head and ignored people.
Gu Shizi was dumbfounded, should her daughter be so angry, isn't it just to tease her, but it's really cute to see her daughter puffing up, and thinking of what the doctor said, if your daughter can't be angry, I wanted to continue to tease her heart and endured it, and coaxed her angrily: "Well, it's Daddy's, it's all for you, okay, Sister Xin'er, don't be angry with Daddy." “
Gu Mingxin thought about whether she would forgive him immediately or show it, but before she could come up with it, the little brother immediately coaxed and said, "Sister, don't be angry with your father, my brother will go to the street tomorrow to buy you a lot of fun and come back, let's not be angry." “
The little brother was so good to her, of course she couldn't ignore him, so Gu Mingxin happily said to her brother: "Brother is good." “
Gu Shizi was a little jealous of his son, why did this kid say anything, his daughter was so happy, he thought about it and stuffed everything in his hand to his daughter, and then said: "Our sister Xin likes it, tomorrow Daddy will buy you a lot of good things, okay, good boy, don't be angry, Dad will buy you a lot of things." “
Gu Mingyu heard this and hurriedly said: "Daddy, you can't be like this, I told my sister to buy a lot of things first, what if your sister likes what you buy and doesn't like what I buy?" ”
Gu Shizi felt that this was the best, so that his daughter and himself would be closer, it must be that this kid usually coaxes his daughter like this, otherwise how could his daughter be so close to this kid, so he said, "Aren't you going to school tomorrow?" Don't run around, it's better to buy it from your father. ”
Gu Mingyu hurriedly said: "When I go to school, I can ask the people around me to buy it." ”
Gu Shizi glanced at his son and said sternly, "Brother Yu, how can you be half-hearted when you go to school?" ”
Gu Mingyu wanted to say that I went to school, and what did it have to do with half-heartedness when I went to buy things, but before he could say it, Gu Shizi said, "Okay, it's time to eat." With that, he got up and walked away with his daughter in his arms.
Sixteen Niang has been smiling and watching their father and son get along with each other, watching her husband spoil her stepdaughter like that is very uncomfortable, although the stepdaughter can't move because of her body, but she has to coax at every turn, and she is not happy at all, everyone has to revolve around her, is it really good? How will such a favored stepdaughter teach herself in the future, and more importantly, can she teach? It's better to leave the upbringing of the stepdaughter to the old lady as the mother said, so that you can worry about it and the people in the house can rest assured.
