After the zombies traveled through time, they were tricked by the villain into becoming a stepmother

He stood up and took two steps forward, but was grabbed by his grandmother and brought to the front, directly in front of Pei Changjing.

The old lady smiled in a friendly manner.

"Your Highness, this is your seventh cousin, Chu Chi!"

She pronounced the word "Chu" particularly clearly.

Pei Changjing had already understood what the Chu family meant, so he stood up very formally, brushed his sleeves, and chuckled with a serious expression.

"Seventh cousin, I'm your cousin Pei Changjing."

Chu Chi raised his little chin, swallowed the pastry in his mouth hard, and then replied to him with some doubt.

"Pei Xiaoliu?"

"Yes, it's me."

"...Didn't An An say that you were a prince? Why did you change your name again?"

"No, I've always called you Pei Changjing."

Knowing that this girl's brain is different from that of normal people, and that they were friends who had been bandits forged on the road, Pei Changjing was already very familiar with how to communicate with her correctly.

Chu Chi tilted his head and muttered twice.

"It seems a bit confusing, not as easy as Pei Xiaoliu calling it."

"Hahaha, then you can just call me Pei Xiaoliu. But Chu Chi, don't forget that I am also your cousin, just like Chu Xiaosan!"

He didn't feel anything just now, but at this moment when he heard his relationship with her from his own mouth, Pei Changjing suddenly felt it was quite magical.

He thought back to the first time he met this cousin.

It was freezing cold at the time, and the three of them were lying in a hut on the side of the road, covered in wounds. When they saw the girl suddenly jump out, she was like a reincarnated god of death.

How could he describe the feeling at that time? Just as his third cousin liked to say when he was exaggerating, she brought the light of life.

Who could have thought that the relationship they had so hard to climb up to was actually related by blood?

The fate in this world is beyond words.

"Oh."

He nodded, not understanding why.

She found that since she came back to the capital this time, she suddenly became very popular for some unknown reason, and she had many brothers and sisters.

But, this seems like a good thing?

After blinking his eyes, he suddenly became alert.

"Chu Chi greets my cousin. May my cousin live a long and healthy life!"

He arched his paws in a gesture of equality, recited the signature words that were engraved in his mind, then quietly stretched out his snow-white paws, his two big eyes blinking with golden light.

He urged with great anticipation.

"It's your turn."

Yes, the clever Chu Daidai is already very familiar with the process of earning the meeting gift and can do it independently without An An's assistance.

"Ok?"

Oh!

Pei Changjing reacted quickly and raised his arm to return the greeting, with a gentle smile between his brows.

"I, Pei Xiaoliu, thank you for your kind words, cousin!"

Cousins, looking straight at each other.

Both parties were smiling, and it was obvious that everyone was quite polite. No one was talking, and of course there was no such thing as a greeting gift.

Then, the atmosphere was silent for several breaths.

Chu Chi blinked and looked at him straight, and his little paw gave him a reminder very clearly, hooking it twice in a row with a "buji buji" sound.

Pei Changjing raised his eyebrows in confusion, looked at her hands and then at her body, wondering what this silly cousin was doing.

Then, Chu Dabo, who thought the other party was playing dumb, ran away with the likable smile on his little face.

Does Pei Xiaoliu want to take advantage of me for free?

I had said all the flattering words, but he actually wanted to not give me a gift? His little white teeth were grinding, and his claws were still stubbornly standing there, as if he would not return the gift unless he accepted it.

Several elders of the Chu family sat nearby, smiling but saying nothing.

How the younger generations get along with each other is their own business. Who gets along well with whom and who can help whom in the future depends entirely on their respective abilities. The elders will never interfere in a forceful manner. This is the consistent tradition of their Chu family.

Lin Youan wanted to stand up and speak up to defend his mother, but Qin, who was sitting next to him, gently held his arm.

The kid turned his head and saw the other person slightly shook his head. He frowned and thought about it, but in the end he just sat there quietly without moving. Even though he didn't know why the elders of the Chu family did this, they wouldn't harm his mother anyway, so it was better to wait and see.

Although Chu Chi's relatives and friends were able to sit still and no one came out to interfere, the speechless look between the cousins ​​suddenly hurt the eyes of the licking dog, no! The lone wolf.

Chuchu is beautiful, charming and lovely, but she is simple-minded and gullible. Why does Pei Laoliu, a man, always stare at her?

Shen Mufeng, who was sitting not far away, thought more and more that Pei Laoliu was not a good person. So he coughed hard and snorted coldly, reminding him in a sarcastic tone.

"Your Highness Prince Xuan, it's time for you to pay the gift!"

The three words "gift for meeting" were indeed the key words to activate the wooden man. Dai Jiji's big eyes turned straight to Shen Xiaowu's face, and then they were filled with very obvious praise.

Shen Xiaowu is indeed my best friend, he is really smart! But Pei Xiaoliu is just not good enough, he doesn't understand me at all.

"Oh, oh!"

That’s what it means!

The confused Prince Xuan finally understood.

Please forgive him, over the years no one in the Chu family dared to come to him and ask for gifts openly, which is why he was unable to react for a moment and felt so passive and embarrassed.

He quickly rubbed his sleeves twice, and the embarrassment on his face became even worse, because he noticed that his friend's handsome face had become a little darker.

I sighed in my heart, feeling frustrated. Why are you looking at me with such a displeased look? Can you blame me for this? When I sent my third cousin back just now, you didn't remind me that I still had to give Chu Xiaoqi a gift!

I didn't prepare anything at all. How can I afford a gift? I can't just hand her the small change in my pocket without any courtesy, right?

If he really dared to do this, let's not talk about whether his cousin would be willing or not. One day, he might be kicked into a pit by Shen Mufeng, a moron who values ​​women over friends.

He turned his head back in pain, staring at the other party's claw that would never take back the gift. Pei Changjing gritted his teeth and hardened his heart, and his fingers slowly touched the extremely transparent jade pendant hanging around his waist.

He felt as if his heart was bleeding.

"...Cousin, I don't have a good memory and forgot to prepare a gift. Otherwise, you can just take this jade pendant and play with it!"

Sure enough, as soon as the gift was taken out, the thing next to it that was nothing finally showed a look of satisfaction on its face.

"Thank you cousin!"

Chu Chi couldn't tell whether something was good or bad, but as long as she made some money she was happy, so the smile that had just escaped from her little face quietly slipped back.

Reach out and take the jade pendant.

I pulled it once but it didn't move, so I pulled it again.

"Let go, hehe."
