Chapter 52: The Flower Feast (I)
Chapter 52: The Flower Viewing Banquet (I)
Although the family tried their best to hide it, Gu Xin's car accident was too big, and they couldn't hide it from the two old men, and the old man and the old lady of the Gu family soon returned to Yicheng. and announced a piece of news that gave Gu Miao a lot of headaches, and they were ready to go back to live in Yicheng.
Originally, the old lady of the Gu family suffered too much blow because of the death of her son, and her health has been poor, so she and the old man have a warmer and more comfortable climate in the south to retire. The Gu family has Yang Anyi to take care of, and Gu Yu stares at them from time to time to report the news, and there is nothing to worry about.
However, the last two times Yang Anyi and Gu Yu have joined forces, although her daughter returned to the Gu family to participate in the management, she also helped Yang Anyi to deceive the two together, which made it difficult for the two old people to feel at ease. The old lady's health has also improved a lot, so she decided to go back to Yicheng this time.
In the old lady's original words, it is: "Instead of being deceived by you in the south, it is better to come back and die of illness in Yicheng." β
The grandparents felt that Yang Anyi didn't care about the two children, so they had to let the two children move back to the old house, Yang Anyi and Gu Yu couldn't persuade them, and Yang Anyi couldn't rest assured that the two children could only follow Gu Xin and Gu Miao back to the Gu family's old house to live.
The Gu family's old house is more remote than the Gu house, located at the foot of Shangyuan Mountain outside Yicheng City, although it is indeed a good place with beautiful mountains and rivers, but it is really far away from Yicheng, Gu Miao has to get up an hour early every day to go to school, which is also miserable, and Song Ke has to finish Gu Xin's class through the guΓ² video, the old house is too far.
However, what made Gu Miao and Gu Xin feel even more uncomfortable was that the rules of the old mansion were too big, and they used to come back for a few days every year during the Chinese New Year, but now it is really helpless to live here every day.
Yang Anyi has always disliked the use of a lot of nannies at home, and there is only one nanny in the Gu house, Aunt Zhang, who usually takes care of the three people, and the security guards are also in shifts and will not live in the Gu house.
But the old man and the old lady are different, their daily life is taken care of by a special person, plus the employees who stay in the old house on weekdays, there are really a lot of people in the old house. It always makes people feel like they are living under the gaze of others all the time.
What's even more maddening is that the old lady of the Gu family has not returned to the social circle of Yicheng for a long time, and as soon as she came back, she couldn't wait to tell everyone, and found a weekend to invite all the people with heads and faces in Yicheng to hold a flower viewing banquet in the old mansion.
Gu Xin was still injured and idle, while Gu Miao was clearly told that he had to participate obediently and not embarrass the Gu family. In fact, according to the old lady's previous temper, even if Gu Miao was idle, she would rather not come out to meet people, her temper was so bad that people would only lift the table and cry and make a fuss, which was very embarrassing.
Gu Yu persuaded her mother many times, she had already seen the changes in Gu Miao during this time, and there was nothing wrong with taking her to the imperial capital to participate in Jiang Zitong's engagement banquet, and if Gu Miao was not allowed to avoid contact with these celebrities, it would be very unfavorable for her to never be able to integrate into their circle.
Gu Miao was miserable, although she knew her aunt's kindness, but it was too embarrassing for her, who was not good at socializing.
Originally, although the Gu family was rich, its foundation was very shallow, and it was rich for three generations. As far as those scholarly families with deep foundations in Yicheng are concerned, it is really difficult to blend into their circle. In the words of those families, it is the nouveau riche who has just shaken off the mud on his legs, and Gu Miao in the previous life is unlearned and unskilled and rude and willful, and is often ridiculed by those celebrities.
Does she have Gu Yu's long sleeves and good dancing, and can be easily coiled in this circle, plus everyone thinks that Yang Anyi's background is unknown and her status is very low, so she looks down on Gu Miao even more, and over time, Gu Miao is very resistant to this kind of occasion.
Gu Miao in this life is not much better, usually has no communication with those celebrities in the family circle, and even if there is, it is a relationship that does not like each other like Jiang Zi's brothers. After being reborn, Yang Anyi was not keen on these interactions, so she didn't care about them, she just had to live her own little life.
However, looking at Grandma's posture, maybe there will be more such gatherings in the future, and she is really tired of coping.
The old lady picked the day on a sunny spring afternoon, Shangyuan Mountain was originally a good place to enjoy flowers in spring, and the Gu family took advantage of the beginning of the development of Yicheng, when the land price was cheap, and took the best scenery around Shangyuan Mountain as the back garden of the Gu family.
The back garden of the Gu family is still very handy, and it is definitely very face-saving to invite Chinese people to enjoy the flowers.
Early in the morning, Gu Miao was called up by the old lady and dressed up well, wearing a specially customized pink dress, plus a small white cape, and her soft and jet-black hair was climbed into two small mustaches, like a doll, which was very cute.
The old lady looked at her masterpiece in the mirror with great satisfaction, and nodded: "This is like my Gu family's child." β
Gu Miao was a little embarrassed, Yang Anyi neglected her in the previous life, and she didn't teach her anything in terms of clothing, words and deeds, and then under Su Wenwen's instigation, she can always dress rich and noble, and she can't wait to pretend to have a big gold tooth in her mouth, she is a rude and willful person who does not learn and has no skills, those celebrities always laugh at her clothes, and say that she is a nouveau riche in the countryside.
And in this life, she is still young, and Yang Anyi is still so busy, she usually wears it simply and decently, and she has not inherited the dressing taste of the old lady and the old lady at all. I have to say that although my grandmother doesn't value her very much, and she is very rude and mean, after all, she was born in a big family, and she still has a lot of experience in dressing up.
"Grandma, is it pretty?" Gu Miao lifted her little skirt with one hand and turned it around.
The old lady looked at the face in front of her that looked like her when she was young, and a string in her heart was touched, revealing an unprecedentedly kind and kind smile: "Your eyes are just like when I was young, beautiful." β
Gu Miao was stunned for a moment, such a smile is usually only available to her brother, her heart can't help but warm, the smile on her face is even brighter, and she has a little less complaint about the drudgery arranged for her by her grandmother.
"Remember, you are a child of the Gu family, behave generously, don't cower and be a little family." As if she remembered something again, Grandma immediately straightened her face.
Gu Miao sighed, it wasn't that she wanted to be a child, and the experience of several banquets before her rebirth also made her very unhappy, either she was said to be a dumpling bun or a nouveau riche, who could stand up to it? In addition, after Gu Miao's father died, several children at several banquets bullied her for being a child without a father, and she was also afraid of being bullied.
"You're not allowed to mess with those ladies today, do you hear me?" Grandma had already warned her for the Nth time.
My aunt also told me several times: "If you have any grievances, come to your aunt, don't make trouble with others, it's not good that we are the host today." β
Gu Miao nodded helplessly.
When the flower-viewing banquet began, Jiang Zitong's aunt Li Liwen took Jiang Ziyi and Jiang Zitong's brothers arrived early in the morning, along with Jiang Zitong's fiancΓ©e Chu Yuyuan.
