the other side.

Gu Xingye left the crew and got into the car.

Ah Xing came with the driver, turned around and handed her an exquisite box: "Miss Gu, I heard that you are going home to worship your ancestors. This is a gift prepared by the third master for you."

Gu Xingye was slightly taken aback, and quietly raised the corners of his lips.

Unexpectedly, Qin Yunshen would keep her casual words in mind, and even prepared a gift for her.

Take the palm-sized box.

She slowly opened it, revealing a pure and flawless sapphire on the black velvet, even the most ignorant person can see that it is very valuable.

Enjoy a moment in silence.

Gu Xingye snapped the lid of the box and put it in the pocket of his skirt, absolutely not planning to give it away.

The so-called ancestor worship refers to Li Ya's natal family.

She had previously told Qin Yunshen that Li Ya was not her biological mother.

Qin Yunshen didn't say anything at that time, but he could imagine that she was not welcomed in the Li family, so he specially gave her a generous gift in exchange for the hospitality of the Li family...

Is this probably the intention?
Patting the bulging pocket, Gu Xingye used the folds of her skirt to cover it up. In her previous life, in order to please her mother and grandma, she might really be able to give away such a precious thing.

But this time.

She knew that Li Ya was not her mother, nor was her grandmother.

She felt it was a waste to send a bouquet of flowers, and she had already given her face by showing her face at Li's house, don't even think about presents and the like!
……

at dusk.

The Li family's villa was brightly lit, and various relatives gathered together to prepare for tomorrow's ancestor worship ceremony.

Gu Xingye didn't want to be too conspicuous, so he asked the driver to stop at the street corner, and strolled to the door, just in time to meet the aunt in name.

"Yo, isn't this the starry night?"

The aunt stopped the car, opened the door and let her get in the car: "Where are Ran Ran and your parents? You came early?"

The Li family is a big family.

Li Ya has four brothers and sisters. This is Li Ya's sister, who is also a wealthy wife.

"Ah."

Gu Xingye smiled subtly, looked sideways at the outside where people were coming and going, and avoided having other conversations with the other party.

last life.

She realized that Mrs. Li didn't like her, so she found a corner to sit in when she came, silently lowering her sense of existence, and didn't know much about Li's relatives.

All I know is that the sisters of the Li family have been fighting openly and secretly. After all, these are married daughters of the Li family. If they want to have the right to speak in front of their husbands, it must be inseparable from the support of their natal family.

But Mrs. Li made it clear that she favored sons over daughters, and all the resources in the family were devoted to her sons, and the rest had to be fought for by her daughters.

As the car slowly drove into the yard.

The aunt spoke again, and tentatively asked: "Xingye, what gift did your family prepare for grandma this time?"

"Sorry, I've been busy with work recently, so I don't know much about it."

After Gu Xingye finished speaking, he opened the door and got out of the car.

Inside the villa.

Several sons-in-law of the Li family were not present, at least Gu Jianguo was not here yet.

But Li Ya came early with Gu Ranran, and like other relatives in the Li family, surrounded the old lady Li to make her happy.

Gu Xingye saw this scene from a distance, and didn't intend to step forward to join in the fun.

I was lazy and prepared to find a corner to kill time, and it would be better to see how to write school papers.

however.

Some people just can't understand her doing nothing.

"Xingye, you came back to see grandma, but you didn't bring any gifts?"

Another aunt waved at her, and continued to say in a loud voice on purpose: "If I remember correctly, last year you lost the gift to Ran Ran, and you said you had to prepare carefully, and you will make up for it this year, you won't forget, right? "

As soon as this word comes out.

Everyone in the hall immediately looked at Gu Xingye, each with their own scrutiny.

Is there such a thing?

Gu Xingye raised his eyes suspiciously, and saw Mrs. Li sitting on a mahogany chair, looking at her harshly, her expression seemed very displeased.

"Sister, didn't you say you have a gift ready? Did you forget to bring it?"

Haven't seen you for a few days.

Gu Ranran's acting skills became more and more superb, and she continued to say cutely: "Mom, I will go back with my sister to pick it up. You can stay here with grandma."

Li Ya took a deep look at Gu Xingye, not wanting to make a joke, so she forced a smile and said, "Okay, come back soon..."

"Forget it, who knows whether you will go back to get it or go back to buy it?"

The aunt who just spoke sneered, and then said playfully: "Okay, you obviously don't have the heart, are you tired of pretending?"

Li Ya's face changed slightly, and she quickly explained: "No, Xingye also prepared a gift, I saw it before..."

"Mom! Let's not expect their gifts. Let's see what Cheng Xu and I buy for you."

The aunt interrupted Li Ya's words with a soft hum, and called her daughter over: "Rongrong, show the gift to grandma!"

"Ok!"

A girl about Gu Ranran's age came out holding a gift box.

When passing by Gu Xingye's side, she made up the knife with malicious intentions: "Sister Xingye will forget the gift for grandma? Did you bring it already, sorry to say?"

This playful remark drew meaningful laughter from everyone.

Li Ya pursed her lips with an ugly face, wishing that Gu Xingye would disappear immediately.

If it was the previous life, Gu Xingye might still feel guilty.

She stood calmly on the spot, not paying attention to anyone present, watching Li Ya's excitement with them in a good mood, and staying out of it nonchalantly.

The old lady Li couldn't hold back her face, and said contemptuously: "Hmph, what gift can she bring? Even if she brings a mountain of gold, I wouldn't mind it!"

Gu Ranran saw that something was wrong.

Quietly pulling Gu Xingye, accidentally touched the hem of her skirt, and naturally felt the box inside.

Regardless of other things, Gu Ranran quickly said: "Mom, everyone misunderstood, my sister prepared a gift and put it in her skirt."
