I Have Decided to Go Look for My Father - Chapter 88

[Chapter 88 Buying Insurance]
Gu Xi made an amulet for everyone in the Gu family. When the aunt asked her to help hang a pendant with the character Xiaofu, Gu Xi hung the amulet she made on everyone’s doorknob, as did Gu Shao’s.
The present one is a New Year’s gift specially prepared by Gu Xi for Gu Shao.
Gu Shao saw Gu Xi jump out of the bed with bare feet, and his temples jumped.
“Put on shoes.” Gu Shao reminded.
“Well, good.” Gu Xi put on her shoes, ran to her desk, and pulled out the gift she prepared for Gu Shao from the drawer.
– A very delicate red gift box with a few golden blessing characters printed on it.
“Dad, Happy New Year!” Gu Xi said and handed the gift box to Gu Shao.
“What is it?” A smile flashed in Gu Shao’s eyes, looking at Gu Xi and asking.
Based on what he knew about Gu Xi, it was estimated that preparing such a ‘big money’ gift would make this girl feel pained for a long time.
“A special gift for the New Year, you can see it when you open it.” Gu Xi said with a smile.
Hearing this, Gu Shao opened the box.
What catches the eye is a festive red.
There were three things in the box: a red towel, red socks, and a pair of red panties.
Each item is also printed with a yellow word ‘Fu’ of the same style as the packaging, and in addition.
Gu Shao: “…”
“This is for the New Year’s Day, it can keep you safe!” Gu Xi blinked at Gu Shao, and then said solemnly.
This gift was bought by Gu Xi at the shopping mall before the holiday. She said that she wanted a meaningful gift, and the clerk recommended this ‘New Year’s three-piece set’ to her.
“Dad, what do you think?”
Meeting Gu Xi’s expectant gaze, Gu Shao’s mouth twitched. He couldn’t say ‘good-looking’ against his will, so he answered vaguely, “Not bad.”
“Really?” Gu Xi asked back, how did she feel about Gu Shao’s feelings? Expression a little dignified?
Seeing the expression on Gu Shao’s face, Gu Xi felt a little uneasy.
“Yeah,” Gu Shao replied, and added, “It’s not bad for the New Year, it’s very festive.”
Hearing this, Gu Xi smiled: “Hey, I think so too.”
“And this sock has a mystery. “While talking, Gu Xi took out the pair of red socks from the box and showed them to Gu Shao as if they were offering them a treasure.
It turned out that in addition to the word ‘Fu’ embroidered with yellow thread on the ankle of the sock, there are characters under the foot of the sock, the left one is “contentment and happiness”, and the right one is “everything goes well”.
——Daughter is his own, and the socks are bought by his daughter…
Gu Shao ‘brainwashed’ himself several times in his heart before finally showing no disdain for the pair of socks, and took it from Gu Xi’s hand with a ‘calm’ expression. This is a New Year’s gift.
“Go to sleep.”
“Okay.” After the gift was delivered, Gu Xi snuggled into the quilt contentedly and went to sleep obediently.
——Gu
Shao stayed by the side until Gu Xi fell asleep.
Gu Shao straightened the broken hair that fell on Gu Xi’s face into her earrings, and rubbed it lightly on Gu Xi’s head, and finally couldn’t help but whispered: “Xiao Cai fan, what is in the seeds in your head? What are
you thinking about?” Gu Xi could only think of the
‘New Year’s three-piece suit’.
Gu Shao is sure that this New Year’s gift will never exceed 200 yuan.
Isn’t this girl trying to save money?
Gu Shao raised his eyebrows and thought to himself.
It seemed that Gu Shao’s palm made him a little uncomfortable, Gu Xi frowned in disgust in his sleep, then raised his hand and waved Gu Shao’s hand away.
Gu Shao retracted his hand, took out another bracelet from his pocket and tied it to Gu Xi’s wrist.
This is a bracelet made of red rope. Except for the delicate and special weaving technique, there is nothing special about it.
This red bracelet was given by Gu Shao when he went to inspect a project in Gu’s family and met a master from a nearby temple.
Gu Shao didn’t believe this at first, but the other party muttered something in his mouth when he left, “The past is gone, and the future is safe”, which made Gu Shao think of Gu Xi subconsciously.
The nightmare in Gu Xi’s mouth, Gu Xi’s fear of the Lin family, his fear of Gu Yaobai, and the anonymous email that recorded Xie Hongbo’s affairs secretly sent to him.
No matter how Gu Xi knew about this, Gu Shao hoped that those unpleasant things would be far away from Gu Xi.
“As long as you grow up happily.” Gu Shao rubbed Gu Xi’s head again and whispered.
Until Gu Xi once again opened Gu Shao’s hand in disgust.
Gu Shao withdrew his hand and covered Gu Xi with the quilt before turning around and leaving the room.
——Gu
Shao returned to his room, looked down and saw on his doorknob, in addition to a small sign with the character ‘Fu’ for the New Year’s decoration, there was also a small dark red sign.
Gu Shao put the small listing in the palm of his hand.
The listing is not big, except for the color, it is the same as the amulet that Gu Xi gave to Gu Yanlin and the others.
It’s just that Gu Shao’s top has a ‘Shao’ stitched on it, which looks a bit unfamiliar in needlework, but he is very careful.
In addition to this, Gu Shao also found a small ‘cherish’ character in the corner of the amulet, which was embroidered with a thread similar to the background color.
Gu Shao let out a low laugh, took off the amulet from the door handle, and put it in his close-fitting pocket.
–
The next morning.
Gu Xuan sat in the living room and was stunned when he saw Gu Shao who came downstairs: I don’t know if it was his illusion, he always felt that there was something wrong with today’s second child?
If I have to say it, I just don’t know where it is, and there is always a sense of indescribable disobedience.
Gu Xuan stared at Gu Shao up and down and studied for a few seconds, and finally let him discover the place where he violated the agreement – the pair of red socks on his feet.
Gu Shao usually dresses in a more serious and serious style, even in casual clothes at home.
Suddenly, a pair of red socks appeared on his feet, which was quite conspicuous.
Gu Xuan raised his eyebrows, stared at Gu Shao’s pair of red socks again, and said half-jokingly, “Second brother, these socks are very chic today.”
Yes, they are chic!
Apart from being chic, Gu Xuan couldn’t think of a better word for the time being.
He really didn’t expect that a person like his second brother would get himself a pair of red socks to put on in such a situation.
He certainly wouldn’t wear it anyway.
Gu Xuan murmured in his head.
At this time, Gu Shao looked over, glanced at Gu Xuan, and said as usual: “Xi Xi bought it.” The
flat and indifferent words did not have any ups and downs, but they always made people hear a kind of show off. means come.
Gu Xuan: “…” I feel offended.
No matter what, he wants it too!
——On
the third day of the new year, the people in the Gu family have already started to get busy: in addition to entertaining those who come to pay New Year’s greetings, the adults are also busy with their own friendships.
And the old man Gu was not idle, and began to take Gu Xi, Gu Yanxiao and Gu Chenyi to each friend’s house to pay New Year’s greetings.
In the words of the old man
Gu, it is: “What do you do when you are bored at home, eat and drink from morning to night, and you will become fat when school starts. Go out for a walk and breathe.”
, his grandfather took them out and showed off a little more.
——There
are not many families that Mr. Gu brought the three of them to visit, but they were all noble families with deep friendship with the Gu family.
And the first home they visited was the Shen family.
The Shen family has a longer history than the Gu family. There are many side members of the Shen family, but in the generation of the old man, there are not many people in the main family.
Seeing that Old Man Gu came with Gu Xi and the three of them, Old Man Shen seemed very happy.
As soon as Gu Xi and the others stepped into the door of Shen’s house, the next second, Old Man Shen stuffed a big red envelope by himself.
In addition to Elder Shen’s, Gu Xiji and others also received a red envelope from Shen Ye, as well as a red envelope from Sheng Yi and Shen Yi and his wife who had just returned from the camp to City B after returning from the Sheng family.
“What are you doing so politely?” Old Man Gu said with a wave of his hand.
“It’s all polite, it’s all right,” Old Shen smiled and said again: “It’s you, come here, why do you bring so many things.”
While talking, Old Shen looked at Old Man Gu again .
The gift that I brought here this time for New Year’s greetings: good guy, it’s no less than the one he sent to the Gu family on the 30th day of the new year.
Old Man Gu glanced at Old Man Shen, smiled, and said calmly, “Whatever is more, it is normal.” On the
30th day, when Old Man Shen sent to Gu’s house, Old Man Gu took a look at it, and there were a lot of good things there. .
Although I can’t figure out when Shen Hongshi, a stingy old man, became so generous.
However, since the other party has already invested the capital, Mr. Gu naturally cannot let himself lose.
The two old men were smiling, but their eyes were secretly focused.
However, the ‘comparison’ between these two people has only just begun from this day.
——Ignoring
the two old men’s own thoughts and open and secret fights, here, Shen Yiji and the others have led Gu Xi and the three into the house.
Knowing that the Gu family was coming, the Shen family began to prepare early in the morning.
It wasn’t dinner time yet, but a large table of delicate desserts had already been prepared on the table.
“Come and eat something first, and Xiaoyan too, treat the guests well.” Shen Yi led Gu Xi to the table and said with a smile on his face.
“Okay, thank you Aunt Shen.” Gu Xi thanked the other party, looking at Shen Yi, a little surprised.
Before, when they were at home, Gu Xi heard the eldest aunt and the others talk about the two children of Mr. Shen’s family.
Originally, after hearing Wang Pei’s description, before meeting Shen Yi, Gu Xi thought that the other party was a pungent woman, but she didn’t expect to be so gentle.
Hearing Gu Xi sweetly thanking him, the smile on Shen Yi’s face widened a bit.
Looking at her son who looked like a gourd, Shen Yi’s smile stiffened a bit.
“Not cute at all.” Shen Yi secretly complained about his son.
– Don’t be angry, she is a kind mother.
Shen Yi smiled again, said a few words with Gu Xi and the others, and then left the space for communication to these children of the same age.
——Although
he left, but sitting not far away, Shen Yi’s eyes still peeked at Gu Xi from time to time.
“It turns out that it’s true that my daughter looks like Dad!” Shen Yi said to Sheng Yi who was beside him with a bit of surprise.
She once wondered if she would give birth to a daughter who would look like Sheng Yi, but she gave birth to a son.
No, it should be said that fortunately he is a kid, it doesn’t matter who he looks like.
“Look at how much Xixi looks like Gu Shao.”
Sheng Yi nodded aside: “It’s quite similar.” After
that, Sheng Yi glanced at Shen Yi again and said, “If you are so envious, why don’t we respond? Policy, get another one?”
Hearing this, Shen Yi was taken aback for a moment, glanced at Sheng Yi, and refused without thinking, “Forget it.”
Gu Xi looks like Gu Shao, so she is good-looking.
If they have a daughter who looks like Sheng Yi…
Shen Yi dare not think about it.
It’s not that Sheng Yi is not good-looking, it’s just that Sheng Yi has big facial features and is rather rough and solemn, which is really not suitable for girls.
“However, Xixi is really cute.” It’s hard not to be envious.
Shen Yi sighed again.
Sheng Yi also echoed: “Indeed, but there are also worries.”
“What’s wrong?” Shen Yi asked.
“She’s so beautiful, she’s so attractive.” Sheng Yi and Shen Yi talked about the topic they talked about when they met Gu Shao when they accompany Sheng Xiuyan to participate in the ‘Green Creation Competition’ last time.
“Although Gu Shao didn’t admit it, I could see that he was worried about his daughter’s puppy love, haha, and said he would interrupt the other’s son’s dog’s legs.” Sheng Yi said with a smile.
Shen Yi nodded in agreement: “That’s how it should be done.” After a
pause, Shen Yi asked in surprise, “Our Xiaoyan also went to the competition with Xixi?”
“Yeah, and won an award.”
Wen Saying that, pride flashed in Shen Yi’s eyes: “Not bad.”
After speaking, Shen Yi was suddenly stunned: “No.”
“What’s wrong?” Sheng Yi asked.
“Look, our Xiaoyan still has Xixi, isn’t the feeling between the two of them not quite right?” Shen Yi pointed to Sheng Xiuyan and Gu Xi not far away, and whispered.
“What’s wrong? Isn’t it good?” Sheng Yi said, looking at the children eating on the table in a harmonious atmosphere.
“No! Didn’t you find out? Although a few of them were chatting, our son and Xixi didn’t communicate during the whole process. Aren’t the two of them in the same class?” And they also participated in the competition together. There should be no communication from beginning to end.
Hearing what his wife said, Sheng Yi also noticed something was wrong.
“It shouldn’t be…” Sheng Yi whispered, “It was fine last time.” The
husband and wife didn’t know, at this time, Gu Xi and Sheng Xiuyan didn’t speak because of the embarrassment caused by the ‘tree hole incident’ , Seeing that the two children were not getting along well, both of them began to get nervous.
“Husband, what do you think—could it be that the two of them had some conflict at school? Or our son bullied others.” Shen Yi guessed, her face full of worry.
Thinking of the fact that several cousins of Sheng Xiuyan came over for the Chinese New Year a few years ago, and they were crying rudely by him, Sheng Yi nodded in agreement, and said with a serious expression: “There is such a possibility.”
Shen Yi Frowning, he has already started to make up 100 reasons for the conflict between the two families: “This will not work, not to mention that the relationship between our two families is like this, the two of them should get along well as classmates. Xiuyan is a boy, if there is any contradiction, he should let the girl!”
“Okay, let’s not talk about it, we will teach him a lesson later.”
–
So, at night, the Gu family left After that, Sheng Yi and his wife called Sheng Xiuyan into the study with a serious look and began to question him.
“What are you talking about?” Sheng Xiuyan asked calmly, standing in front of Sheng Yi and Shen Yi.
Originally, he thought that the two of them just came back for less time, and planned to take this opportunity to ask him to talk a few words to make up for the lack of ‘compulsory education’.
As a result, Sheng Xiuyan was wrong, and the first sentence Shen Yi said was: “You and Xixi are in conflict?”
Hearing this, Sheng Xiuyan was stunned.
“No.” Sheng Xiuyan retorted subconsciously.
“Really?” At this moment, Shen Yi’s eyes were sharp, not gentle at all.
“Really,” Sheng Xiuyan said, paused, and then muttered, “How could I have a conflict with her?”
At most, it’s just an occasional contest, comparing who has the highest score and who finishes his homework first.
Shen Yi still didn’t believe it: “Then let me ask you, Xishi they came to our house today, why didn’t you and her say a word?”
Sheng Xiuyan didn’t expect his mother to observe so carefully, and suddenly her expression was stiff, and there was no sign of her.
Be right.
“I, we… In short, we didn’t have a conflict, it’s because you think too much.”
“Then why don’t you talk?”
Sheng Xiu said: “…” Because of embarrassment.
Sheng Xiuyan didn’t speak.
He couldn’t have told them that at first he regarded Gu Xi as a like-minded buddy he didn’t know on the Internet, and he had a fierce output with the other party, and then after the horse fell, he even collapsed the character design, right?
And then, Gu Xi regarded him as a ‘dead tree hole’ output of 99, did he accidentally reveal the contents?
What does he want him to say?
It’s just embarrassing to think about.
“Anyway, we have a good relationship, you don’t have to worry about it.” After that, Sheng Xiuyan turned around and left.
He walked neatly and neatly, except for his red ears, which looked a little discordant.
“Don’t let me say it…” Seeing Sheng Xiuyan hurriedly leaving, Shen Yi complained to Sheng Yi dissatisfiedly: “Why I haven’t come back for a few months, I feel that there is a generation gap with my son, if I say he It
doesn’t sound good anymore.”
Sheng Xiuyan’s small anomaly was beyond Shen Yi’s expectations.
Suddenly thinking of something, Shen Yi squeezed Sheng Yi’s hand: “Husband, do you think it is possible…”
“What is the possibility?” Sheng Yi asked.
However, Shen Yi shook her head: “Forget it, it’s useless to tell you.”
–
At night, it was very late. Seeing that Shen Yi was still holding the phone and focused on what he was looking at, Sheng Yi called the other party. .
“It’s so late, what are you looking at?”
“What about insurance?” Shen Yi replied while quickly browsing the sharing of various parents in the education forum.
Sheng Yi was surprised after hearing this: “What kind of insurance? You want to buy insurance?”
“I didn’t buy it.”
“Then you are?”
“Show your son a life insurance.” Shen Yi said blankly: “The best The one with a higher security deposit, the one that can pay for the lack of arms and legs.”
Sheng Yi: ?
?
?
——The
good times are always very short. If Dong Mingming hadn’t called and asked her to go to the dessert shop and prepared to ‘reference’ her vacation homework, Gu Xi would not have realized that the school was about to start.
However, this time the start of school is different from the past.
Because last semester’s final exam was a city-wide unified exam and a city-wide ranking was required, the exam results were not announced before the holiday.
Therefore, this time, the day before the start of the school year, the school did not arrange an education class, but a parent meeting of the whole school.
