"It's just that my aunt gave it to you, and when you learn jade carving by yourself in the future, wouldn't it be more meaningful to make a set by yourself?"

Qin Xiufang stopped her, and the two of them pushed over and pushed back for a few rounds before Qin Xiufang noticed the second elder of the Xu family.

She hurriedly put Gu Chenxi's card back into Chenxi's hand, and immediately changed the topic to look at the second elder of the Xu family: "Old Xu, madam, I haven't seen you for a long time!" ”

"Yes, Miss Qin hasn't seen you for a long time! How is your mother-in-law's health? ”

Old Madam Xu looked at Qin Xiufang with a smile, they had known each other before, and they had not been to the capital in the past few years. Speaking of which, she still misses Mrs. Li a little.

"Mother-in-law is in good health, Mrs. will come to the house to have a look when I have time, it just so happens that my mother-in-law also misses Xixi!"

"Then it's better to wait, it's still early anyway."

"Grandma, I haven't come to see you for a long time, a few days ago I walked around the jade shop and found a jade pendant that suits you very well, you can touch it."

"Rong Rong has a heart, grandma doesn't lack this, so she won't have to break the bank in the future."

"You are my grandmother, how can you break the bank, this is what I should do."

Gu Chenxi followed the second elder of the Xu family into the Li family's villa, and before he entered the living room, he heard a voice coming from the room. Gu Rongrong's voice was very familiar to her, but now that she heard it, she felt particularly ironic.

She was silent, Qin Xiufang subconsciously glanced back at her, and sighed when she saw her hanging her head. None of them knew what happened at the banquet where Gu Rongrong recognized her ancestors and returned to her ancestors that day, but Qin Xiufang believed that Gu Chenxi would definitely not be the wrong party.

The second elder of the Xu family naturally found that Gu Chenxi's mood was a little wrong, and Mrs. Xu took the initiative to hold Gu Chenxi's hand, and explained very understandingly: "Grandma is a little uncomfortable, can Xixi help grandma?" ”

"Is grandma uncomfortable? Do you want to go to the hospital? ”

Compared with meeting Gu Rongrong in the Li family, she was more concerned about Mrs. Xu's health. Mrs. Xu's health is not good, and she is still a little uncomfortable with the temperature here when she comes to the capital, what if she gets sick.

"Grandma is fine, just take a break."

"Then I'll help grandma go to the living room and sit down."

Old Madam Xu was supported by her, looking at her frowning and anxious look, and slowly hooked the corners of her mouth. She likes Gu Chenxi, this child is gentle and kind, even if she is maliciously treated by the world, she still maintains a pure heart. This is what makes her worthy of being treated gently by the world.

When everyone walked into the living room, Mrs. Li heard the footsteps and hurriedly turned her head to look in the direction of the door.

"Is Xixi here?"

"Grandma, it's me."

"Oh, grandma knew that it was Xixi who came, and I heard your footsteps from afar. Come to Grandma, I miss you for a few days! ”

Old Madam Li didn't pick up the jade pendant handed over by Gu Rongrong, she looked in the direction of Gu Chenxi, patted the vacant position around her, and was so excited that a pair of godless eyes seemed to be glowing.

Gu Chenxi helped Mrs. Xu to walk towards her, and Qin Xiufang, who was beside them, hurriedly took the opportunity to speak: "Mom, Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Xu have come to see you!" ”

"Who?" Mrs. Li was stunned for a moment, thinking that she had misheard.

"Old sister, it's me, Jing Yun!"

"Jing Yun, it's Jing Yun! It's been a long time since we've seen each other, it's been a long time! ”

Old Madam Li's excited eyes were slightly red, and her raised hands were trembling. She and Mrs. Xu knew each other when they were young, and the two temperaments became the best handkerchief after the first meeting, when she gave birth to Xiaoman, Mrs. Xu came to see her, and took the initiative to be Xiaoman's godmother.

"It's not like I haven't seen you in a long time, it's been too long."

Old Madam Xu sighed, since Li Xiaoman was gone, Old Madam Li's health has deteriorated, and she didn't even attend the banquet. She came to the capital three years ago, and she wanted to come to Li's house to have a look, but she wanted to have a car accident halfway, and in the end, it was over.

The two old ladies both had red eyes, they were old and not in good health, Qin Xiufang was worried that they were too excited, so she hurriedly interrupted them: "Mom, madam." Rong Rong is here, Mrs. must not know this good thing. ”

"What's good?" Old Madam Xu looked at Qin Xiufang, and the other party smiled and gestured to Gu Rongrong on the side.

"Rong Rong is Xiaoman's daughter, we have been looking for a child for almost twenty years, and we have found it!"

"Xiao Man's ...... Daughter? ”

Old Madam Xu looked at Gu Rongrong who was sitting on the other side of the old lady with a surprised face, she didn't believe that this girl was Xiao Man's daughter. There is nothing like Xiao Man in her, which makes Mrs. Xu unwilling to believe it.

Gu Rongrong looked at Old Madam Xu with a smile and nodded slightly with a gentle look. No matter how much she pretended to look, Old Madam Xu could still see the panic in her eyes at a glance.

She didn't like this girl, she didn't like it in her heart, although she didn't know why. But for the sake of the Li family's face, she still smiled and nodded to Gu Rongrong: "It's good to come back." ”

The alienated attitude was felt by most people in the living room. Especially Gu Chenxi and Mrs. Li, who know her better. The atmosphere in the living room fell into embarrassment again, and Xu Lao, who was sitting not far away, was quietly drinking tea, looking at Gu Rongrong's line of sight, full of scrutiny.

Gu Rongrong was very uncomfortable to be looked at by such an oppressive gaze. She wanted to say something, but she didn't know how to speak, so she could only sit awkwardly with a smile on her face for a while.

Qin Xiufang immediately stood up to play the round, she saw the jade pendant in Gu Rongrong's hand, and hurriedly said, "Yo, this is what Rong Rong bought for her grandmother, right?" This design is quite original, which is really good! ”

"Auntie, take a look, I think my grandmother will like it, so I bought it."

Gu Rongrong smiled and handed the jade pendant to Qin Xiufang, Qin Xiufang, who didn't look at the jade pendant carefully just now, still boasted about it, when the jade pendant was placed in her hand, she was stunned for a moment, and looked up at Gu Chenxi.

"Did Rong Rong buy it from the jade shop on the thirteenth floor of the commercial street?"

"How does my aunt know? That jade shop is really good, and the jewelry sold is very novel, and I like it very much when I look at it. ”

Finally able to find a topic, Gu Rongrong hurriedly opened her mouth and chatted with Qin Xiufang. As soon as she said a word, she was robbed of the conversation by Xu Lao.

"The jade shop on the thirteenth floor? She's talking about your Li family's own jade shop, right? ”

"Ah, yes, that's right."

Qin Xiufang was embarrassed, what happened to her today, and how to find the topic of stepping on thunder. She held the jade pendant, only to feel like she was holding a hot potato in her hand, and she was entangled.

Gu Rongrong also felt very embarrassed, looked at Mrs. Li, and made a sad look: "I didn't know that it was the Li family's shop, so this jade pendant, grandma must have seen it." ”

With her appearance, Mrs. Li will definitely comfort her, and there will be nothing to be embarrassed about when the time comes. She thought well, and Mrs. Li also took the jade pendant in Qin Xiufang's hand and touched it as she thought.

Gu Rongrong smiled, and when she was waiting for Old Madam Li to praise her, the old lady turned her head to look at Gu Chenxi: "This is Xixi's design, right?" I remember that this is the one that your aunt brought to me a few days ago, the style is very novel, Rong Rong likes it, I believe that more people will like it. ”

The old lady smiled, but Gu Rongrong, who was sitting on the side, darkened her eyes, how could Gu Chenxi be there for everything, she just bought a piece of jade pendant casually, all of which were designed by Gu Chenxi.

But the matter has come to this point, and she can only force a smile: "Yes, Xixi's design is awesome." ”

Gu Chenxi nodded slightly, but did not answer her words. She only turned her head to look at Mrs. Li, and said with a smile: "I think that after learning jade carving from my aunt in the future, I will carve a piece of jade pendant for my grandmother!" ”

"Hey, what kind of jade carving to learn, that work is tiring and grinding, let's not learn, grandma feels sorry for us Xixi!"

"Grandma, it's me who wants to learn!"

Her coquettish appearance made Mrs. Li couldn't help but feel sorry, and naturally ignored Gu Rongrong on the side.

There are so many people in the living room of the Li family, but Gu Rongrong feels that she is the one who is isolated, no one cares about her existence, everyone is praising Gu Chenxi, as if they already know that Gu Chenxi is the foreign lady of the Li family.

She panicked in her heart, and hurriedly grabbed Mrs. Li's wrist, and only after holding it did she realize how abrupt her movements were.

"Rong Rong, what's wrong?"

"No, nothing. I just wanted to ask my grandmother, can I also learn jade carving from my aunt? ”

"Does Rong Rong also want to learn? You'll have to start from scratch. ”

Qin Xiufang did not refuse, after all, Gu Rongrong was the foreign lady of their Li family, even if the old lady was not close to her, but in the end, it was Xiaoman's daughter, and their Li family would not treat her badly.

"Rong Rong wants to learn, then let's go with Xi Xi another day, I'll take you to the studio to have a look, Rong Rong will learn drawing design first, and Xi Xi will follow the jade carving master to learn carving."

"Thank you, aunt!"

Gu Rongrong immediately agreed, she must not miss this good opportunity, take this opportunity, she must suppress Gu Chenxi, and she must not let Gu Chenxi threaten her status.

Old Madam Li frowned, but did not express her inner disapproval. In her opinion, children without talent are not suitable for learning jade carving, but since Qin Xiufang has agreed, she is not refutating.

Such an atmosphere was not suitable for Gu Rongrong, she quickly said goodbye to Mrs. Li very familiarly, and soon left the Li family. After she left, the atmosphere of the Li family quickly improved, as if the only stranger among the acquaintances had left, and everyone had relaxed.

Mrs. Li and Mrs. Xu chatted about family life, and Mr. Xu followed the head of the Li family to play chess on the side, leaving Gu Chenxi to follow behind Qin Xiufang and went to the kitchen to help.

The two old sisters who hadn't seen each other for a long time were chatting about family life, and Mrs. Li mentioned Gu Rongrong's return to the Bai family, and sighed: "That child has been wandering outside for nearly twenty years, and it's not easy. But I just can't feel sorry for her, I can't say what it feels like. Jing Yun, give me an idea! ”
