Chapter 23

When Father Ji saw this scene when he came back, his heart skipped a beat, and all the keys in his hand fell to the ground.

The crisp sound of "哗啦" caused Ji Mengmeng to turn her head, "Dad, you are back."

"Mengmeng, how can you let the guests do these things by themselves!" Ji's father walked into the kitchen in a hurry and said to Gu Shijing, "I'll come and I will come. Nephew Gu, go sit in the living room."

Gu Shijing said naturally, "I've finished washing."

Papa Ji blushed, and cast a reproachful glance at Ji Mengmeng.

Ji Mengmeng didn't notice, and asked them, "Dad, why did you come back so late?" She used to stay until the afternoon and come back.

"It's the third uncle, I don't know what happened, but he insisted on keeping us there for dinner." In the past, he always said politely, wishing them to leave.While talking, Ji Xia peeked at Gu Shijing, curious in his heart.

Because on the way home, my father smiled wryly and said to my mother.

It was all because of Gu Shijing that the third uncle's attitude changed a lot. He was so kind and polite to them.

Ji's father felt very comfortable in his heart. How long has it been since he felt this way?After their father passed away, they were forcibly kicked out by the so-called Separatist.

"Shijing, can you come with me?" Papa Ji took a tentative look at Gu Shijing.

Gu Shijing replied lightly, "Okay." Turning to Ji Mengmeng, he said, "I'll go first."

Ji Mengmeng let out an oh, but didn't pay much attention.

Ji's father was stunned until Gu Shijing reminded him, "Uncle, let's go."

"Oh, good." Ji's father recovered and nodded hurriedly.

"Shijing, Mengmeng said that you gave her the wild ginseng?" When the two arrived in the study, Ji's father handed Gu Shijing the letter bag he had prepared, which contained more than 2 yuan. I know that wild ginseng is not only worth this little money, but..." Twenty thousand was all he could afford with the best of his ability.

Gu Shijing looked at the money, confiscated it, and said flatly, "It's not for her." After a pause, he continued, "It was for Grandma Ji, and it was just given out by Ji Mengmeng's hand. You don't have to Don't worry." The implication is that the gift is from him and has nothing to do with them.

Ji's father also remembered that what Ji Mengmeng said at the time was that Gu's elder brother asked her to give it to her.

"But..." Papa Ji thought hesitantly, isn't it because of them?He asked first, but felt that it seemed too self-indulgent, so he said awkwardly, "Is that so?"

Gu Shijing nodded calmly, and said to him, "Is there anything else to do, Uncle? If not, I'll go out to eat."

Ji's father hurriedly said, "No, you can go and eat."

Gu Shijing nodded, turned and walked out of the study.

Ji Mengmeng had already served the dishes on the table, and when she saw him coming out, she hurriedly greeted him, "Come and eat, before it gets cold." It was not good.

"En." Gu Shijing was not polite, just sat down and moved his chopsticks.

Ji Mengmeng asked Ji's father who came out of the study, "Dad, do you want to eat?"

Ji's father was a bit distracted, and Ji Mengmeng called him a few times before returning to his senses, and said embarrassingly, "It's okay, Dad is full, you can eat."

Ji Mengmeng let out an oh, and sat down to eat.

Soon, both of them were full, and to Ji Mengmeng's surprise, Gu Shijing didn't have any food left.

She originally thought that Ji's father and the others would come back to eat, so she was worried about cooking too much, but she didn't expect Gu Shijing to eat them all.Ji Mengmeng is naturally happy that someone loves the food he made.
