Chapter 23
"Why has Rui'er lost so much weight?" The old lady Shi Rui pulled Shi Rui to her side and put her arms around her, looked around and frowned.

Shi Rui touched her face and was about to deny it, when the old lady turned to Gu Danqiu who was sitting beside her, and said dissatisfiedly: "Although Rui'er and Xiao Jian's backgrounds are wrong, but Rui'er was also raised by Shi's family. For many years, you can't treat Rui'er harshly just because of a little blood relationship!"

Gu Danqiu's expression turned ugly.

What do you mean they treat Rui'er harshly?When did they treat Rui'er harshly?

Seeing that Gu Danqiu's complexion had changed, Shi Rui hurriedly explained: "Grandma, no! My parents and everyone are very good to me, really! I... I had a cold and a fever a few days ago... But it's not winter now, if I don't pay attention... my parents are very good to me, grandma, don't get me wrong..."

If Shi Rui had a natural and innocent attitude like before, and said these words in a coquettish tone, the old lady Shi would still believe it.

But because of Xu Jingru's matter, she has always had a knot in her heart, thinking that Shi Liren and Gu Danqiu must have been disappointed in her because of this matter, so she became a little cautious.

Her hasty explanation was originally a good thing, but in the eyes of others, it had a different meaning.On the contrary, it gets darker and darker.

The old lady Shi Rui held Shi Rui's hand and patted it, "Rui'er, don't think too much, you are the lady of my Shi family no matter what! I'll just leave it here! If anyone makes things difficult for you in the future , not good for you, you call grandma, grandma will vent her anger on you!"

As he spoke, he glanced at Shi Jian meaningfully.

Shi Jian noticed, but was unmoved.

She didn't find it strange that although Shi Rui was not a child of the Shi family, she had been raised by the Shi family for more than ten years.

The feelings of so many years are not fake, and the feelings have been invested and responded, of course, it is impossible to get them back overnight.

Blood relationship is very important, but the feelings that can be cultivated over time are also very important.

She still said the same thing, as long as Shi Rui doesn't come to provoke her, she has no interest in causing any sabotage.

As for being jealous of Shi Rui... Hehe, what is that?
"Mom, what are you talking about? How can anyone bully Rui'er? Rui'er was indeed ill a while ago, and it took a few days to get better, and then it was Chinese New Year, and I didn't have time to take care of it." Shi Liren didn't care. If he is too satisfied, he will say something that seems to be aimed at Xiao Jane when he has nothing to do.

If they would treat Rui'er harshly, why would they keep her here?Are you asking for trouble?
Shi Rui looked at the old lady Shi with begging eyes, "Grandma, my parents are really good to me, don't blame them..."

In fact, she should be grateful that she can continue to stay. Who told her not to be the real lady of the Shi family?
"Okay, okay, don't worry, your grandma just cares about you too much. You don't know, your grandma talks about you all day long. If it weren't for the new year, school is about to start, we all want you to stay for a while Time." Zhong Huilan saw that the atmosphere of the Chinese New Year would be ruined by saying this, so she quickly uttered a voice to resolve it.

The old lady Shi didn't hold on to this matter any longer, she patted Shi Rui's head, her eyes were loving, "You will take the college entrance examination next year, so you should apply to Beijing University when that time comes!"

At that time, you can live in Shi's house by the way.

Shi Rui subconsciously looked at Gu Danqiu, as if asking for her opinion.

Gu Danqiu frowned.

Hasn't the family discussed about applying for the college entrance examination next year?At that time, it was clear that it was up to Ruier to choose which school to apply for, and they would not interfere...

But she didn't think too much, instead she nodded to Shi Rui following what the old lady said, "Your grandma is also right, it will be convenient to take care of you when you apply for a university in the capital."

Shi Rui was happy at first, but then couldn't help feeling suspicious in her heart.

Is my mother really disappointed in her and doesn't like her anymore, so she wants to let her apply for a university in the capital, so that she can be far away from home, and she doesn't have to show up at home often?
Thinking of this, her mood immediately sank down again, but she didn't dare to show anything, so she forced herself to smile, as if she wanted to cry.Fortunately, she lowered her head, otherwise the people in the room would not know what to think when they saw it.

Shi Liren's family will stay here for two days when they come to the capital for New Year's greetings, and Gu Danqiu also wants to take Shijian around, after all, Xiaojian has never been to the capital before.There are still a lot of fun and delicious things in Beijing.

Of course, the most common thing to do during the Chinese New Year is to go to temples to worship, which is what most people in the capital will do.And there is a grand temple fair, which is very lively.

But on the second day, Shi Liye also became interested, and called his family to say that it was rare to get together, so let's just get together, because there are so many people.

So the whole family set off in two seven-seater commercial vehicles. Meng Jiaojiao didn't know what he was thinking, and joined in the fun. She even dragged Shi Rui into the car of Shi Liye's family and drove Shi Liye's youngest son away. into another car.

Shi Liye's youngest son is a bit naive, he doesn't know how to coax others, he can be seen to be a simple and honest person, and he has been able to play with Shi Ji since he was a child.

Seeing the two sitting together and chatting in a friendly relationship, Shi Jian gave them a meaningful look.

As expected, like attracts like.

Shi Ji himself is an idiot, so why can't he get along with Shi Chen who is also an idiot?
Shi Ji's sensitive thoughts caught her eyes, and she glanced at her inexplicably.

What does she want to do?It's Chinese New Year, don't let him be scolded again!
Fortunately, Shi Jian quickly looked away.

A group of people went to the most famous temple in the capital. This temple has a history of more than 300 years. Although it has experienced the change of dynasties and the baptism of war, it has been fortunately preserved, and it has been preserved quite well.

The Buddha statue in the main hall of the temple has been sitting in the main hall for more than 300 years. As before, it has seen the prosperity and decline of the world with compassionate eyes.

Shi Jian stepped into the hall without any psychological burden, and knelt down on the futon with everyone, closing her eyes and still muttering in her heart.

I hope she can quickly earn enough merit to repay the dead city and reopen the gate of the past...

After chanting for a while, she opened her eyes, and when she met the compassionate eyes of the Buddha statue, she paused.

Why do you feel that there is something wrong with the eyes of this Buddha statue?
She wondered if she had a guilty conscience, so she felt that something was wrong when she looked at the eyes of the Buddha statue.So she stared at the Buddha statue above without blinking, trying to confirm whether it was her problem.

"Little Jane, don't stare at the Buddha statue like this, the Buddha statue will blame you." After Gu Danqiu finished worshiping, he realized that his daughter was kneeling upright, but her eyes were too presumptuous, staring straight at the Buddha statue in front of her.

Shi Jian looked away and asked, "Mom, do you think the eyes of this Buddha statue are a little strange?"

Gu Danqiu glanced at it casually, then quickly withdrew his gaze, and said with a smirk, "You child, what are you thinking about. Aren't all Buddha statues like this, how can there be anything strange or not?"

Moreover, the Buddha statue in this hall has been around for more than 300 years. The Buddha statue has been shaped since the temple was built and has never changed.So how could there be anything strange.

Thinking that her daughter grew up in Taoist temples, Gu Danqiu comforted her: "Although there are many temples now, there are also Taoist temples. Mom will take you to worship in those Taoist temples when you have time."

Shi Jian: "..."

Anyone who is not a princess in the city of vain death will be frightened by this proposal.

Although she is not a ghost, she is a person from the underworld anyway, and Buddhas and immortals are not born in the same way.

Come to this kind of place less in the future, after all, everyone is not on the same path!
Before Shi Jian got up, she couldn't help but stared at the Buddha statue again, but she still felt that the eyes of the Buddha statue were not quite right.

At first glance, it is very compassionate and pity, but on second look, it reveals a... kind of evil feeling.It doesn't look like a serious Buddha, but it looks like an evil Buddha...

After leaving the main hall, she quickly put away the doubts in her heart.

Maybe she was really suspicious. This temple and this Buddha statue have been around for more than 300 years, and I don't know how much incense they have received.If there is a problem, it is time to let this incense burn.

Gu Danqiu has been to this temple several times, and the scenery is still very good. In addition, there was a heavy snowfall in the capital a few years ago, and the temperature is low these days, and the snow has not melted yet.Just now I went up the mountain to see the snow scene.

Shi Jian is still very interested in seeing the snow scene. She has never seen snow... She must have never seen it, right?She can't remember how many years she stayed in the city of death, and she probably didn't have it before she arrived in the city of death, otherwise she didn't have any memory at all.

Seeing Shi Jian walking in front of her, Gu Danqiu started bouncing up and down a bit. She changed from her mature and calm at home, and now she looks like a 17-year-old girl.

Looking at her daughter, the corner of her mouth unconsciously evoked a loving smile, and her eyes were full of love and affection for her daughter.

It's just that I still have some regrets in my heart, and I missed my daughter's growth.

Seeing Shi Jian like this, the four brothers of the Shi family felt a little strange.

They thought this sister was just a little old-fashioned, what a little old lady!It turned out that he was still a child!

As for why he is not yet an adult, but his temper is calmer than many adults, there is no need to think about it.

Even Shi Ji felt a burst of brotherly affection in his heart for a while, thinking in his heart that he should let her be more, who would let him be her fourth brother!
As he walked, Shi Ji became playful, bent down and picked up a handful of snow, kneaded it into a ball, and threw it towards Shi Jian in front—the ball of snow just hit Shi Jian.

As soon as she stopped, she turned around with a sullen face - the three brothers of the Shi family all pointed at Shi Ji, expressing their innocence.

Shi Jian squinted her eyes at Shi Ji.

How dare you hit her with snow? !
