Seeing that everyone was present, the old lady had some snacks served.

"If you haven't had breakfast, come and have some snacks."

The tea set on the table was quickly cleared away. Except for the old lady, a plate of snacks was placed in front of the five people, including cheese osmanthus cake, lotus seed and yam cake, rose shortbread, and cherry blossom rice cake.

Each dessert is so exquisite and beautiful that it looks like a work of art.

Only one of each kind was placed on the plate, and a pot of scented tea was also served to relieve the greasiness.

Gu Jinhong cheered immediately and said happily: "I knew grandma would ask the kitchen to make delicious snacks today. The best snacks in the whole capital can only be eaten at grandma's house."

"Miaomiao, come and try it. I'm not kidding, it's really delicious. You can't get such authentic snacks outside."

Gu Jinhe looked at the exquisite snacks in front of her and knew that Gu Jinhong had not lied to her. In her previous life, her grandmother often asked the chef in the kitchen to cook for her.

Even Gu Jinyu just ate snacks silently and did not refute Gu Jinhong's words.

Seeing that Gu Jinhe was just looking at the snacks but not eating them, the old lady asked, "But is there anything you should avoid eating?"

Gu Jinhe shook her head and smiled, "No, grandma, I just couldn't bear to eat such a beautiful snack."

The old lady smiled when she heard this and said, "If you like it, I will ask the kitchen to make it for you every day and send it to your yard."

Upon hearing this, everyone at the table, except the two people who were talking, slowed down their movements. This was another honor that no one else in the Gu family had ever had.

The chef in the old lady's yard was the descendant of a royal chef in the palace. Whenever someone from other families wanted to borrow the chef to prepare a family banquet, the old lady sternly refused.

On weekdays, the old lady would not often ask the chef to make snacks. Most of the time, everyone would come here to sit down, drink a cup of tea, chat for a few minutes, and then leave.

Everyone knew that they had benefited from Gu Jinhe's help today.

Sometimes when Gu Jinhong felt greedy, he didn't dare to bother the old lady.

Gu Jinhe thought of the complicated and different snacks and meals in her previous life, smiled and said to the old lady, "Okay, thank you grandma."

Gu Jinhong rolled his eyes, and it was unknown what he was thinking about, with a sly smile on his face.

Gu Jinrong glanced at him, then lowered her head and quietly ate snacks, drinking a cup of scented tea from time to time, but still did not speak on her own initiative.

However, while eating snacks, Gu Jinyu felt that his grandmother was very partial. His sister obviously also liked to eat snacks, but his grandmother had never said such a thing.

Gu Jinyu can still remember the look on Gu Feiwan's face when she cried because she couldn't have snacks when she was a child.

But the old lady just sat there, as if she couldn't see that Gu Feiwan was crying. She was reading the newspaper and drinking tea, seemingly ignoring the sobbing in her ears.

It was not until his father came over after hearing the news that the old lady asked him to take the still crying Gu Feiwan away.

"From now on, I won't allow anyone to cry here. If it happens again, you don't have to come here anymore."

Because of the old lady's words, Gu Feiwan was afraid to come to the old lady's yard from then on. On the inevitable first and fifteenth days of the month, in the morning and evening, she would come and sit for a while before leaving in a hurry.

Everyone had their own thoughts while eating the snacks.

The old lady was old and not used to sweets. In front of her was a small plate of walnut cakes. After she finished eating the walnut cakes, she asked everyone to go back.

Everyone stopped at the gate of Qinglan Courtyard. Gu Jinhe saw Xu Cheng guarding the gate. The old butler was not with him. When he saw Gu Jinhe, he walked over and stood two steps behind her.

Gu Jinhong glanced at Xu Cheng, then smiled at Gu Jinhe and said, "Sister Miaomiao, as the saying goes, happiness should be shared. Given our relationship, can I sit in your yard and have a meal?"

Each courtyard of the Gu family is equipped with complete kitchen supplies and chefs. If you don’t like it, you can hire a chef yourself.

Gu Jinyu couldn't bear to see him trying to please others like this, so he snorted coldly and said, "Who are you showing this to? Aren't you ashamed?"

Gu Jinhong looked at him puzzledly and said, "I did it for you to see, didn't you notice it?"

"you!"

Gu Jinyu's face turned pale with anger. He pointed at Gu Jinhong and gritted his teeth, "Why are you so proud? Sister Jinhe is liked by the old lady, but you are trying to get close to her like a dog. Is it just for that bite of food?"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Gu Jinkuan pulled Gu Jinyu away and looked at him sternly: "He is your brother!"

Gu Jinyu looked at Gu Jinkuan, then at Gu Jinhong who was looking at him coldly, and sneered: "He is my brother, so what? Am I wrong? Look at him now, hanging out with some questionable people all day long. As the third young master of the Gu family, he might as well die if he lives like this!"

"How dare you!" Gu Jinkuan scolded him, looking at him coldly and said, "Apologize to your third brother immediately!"

Gu Jinhe frowned as he looked at the furious Gu Jinyu. This Gu Jinyu really couldn't control his temper at all. He almost exploded at the slightest provocation, which was really a headache.

Gu Jinhong looked at Gu Jinyu who was unwilling to apologize to him, shrugged slightly and said nonchalantly: "Maybe I really have a mean bone. I am used to being scolded by him. If I see him one day and don't see him using foul language, I will not be used to it!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Jinyu's lips trembled with anger, but Gu Jinkuan held him back, preventing him from rushing up and beating up the bastard Gu Jinhong.

Gu Jinyu pointed at Gu Jinhong and said to Gu Jinkuan, "You asked me to apologize, but what about him? You heard what he just said, why don't you ask him to apologize to me? He is scolding me!"

Gu Jinhong chuckled and said, "Oh, it turns out you're not that stupid after all. You even know that this is an insult."

Gu Jinkuan frowned and looked at him, Gu Jinhong curled his lips, but in the end he didn't say anything else to provoke Gu Jinyu.

Gu Jinhe looked at Gu Jinrong who was standing aside, as if he hadn't seen this scene.

He seems calmer than his eldest brother.

In the end, the matter was left unresolved because Gu Jinyu refused to apologize.

But nothing changed. From then on, Gu Jinhong often appeared in the Rose Courtyard. He would come at mealtime and leave immediately after meal without staying for a moment.

Shuhua watched Gu Jinhong disappear behind the gate while eating and taking things, and pouted, "The Third Young Master comes here every day to eat for free, and even takes away all the snacks that the eldest lady left for us. How could he do this!"

Looking at the angry calligraphy and painting, Gu Jinhe said indifferently: "He won't come over in two days."

Hearing this, Shuhua asked in confusion: "Why?"

Gu Jinhong likes the food made by the old lady's chef so much, how could he not come?

Two days later, the master arranged by the old lady came, and Gu Jinhe began to attend the class. He also brought along Gu Jinhong, who came over at mealtime to eat and drink.

At first, Gu Jinhong could still pretend to sit down and listen, but gradually he could not resist the hypnotic teaching content.

Then just as Gu Jinhe said, he didn't come.
