Rebirth: Mr. Fu will not cancel the engagement this time

Chapter 13 You can’t have your cake and eat it too

Gu Jinhe looked at the seat and did not sit down immediately.

In her previous life, when the old lady asked Gu Jinhe to sit in this position, she didn’t think too much about it.

Later I found out that this position belonged to Gu Jinkuan.

But she had already sat down. Later, Gu Jinhe found the old lady and asked her to change seats.

But the old lady said: "Since you have already sat down, you must sit well, Miaomiao, don't let grandma down."

From then on, the first position on the old lady's right was Gu Jinhe's position, which also sent a signal to the outside world.

The old lady values ​​the eldest granddaughter more between the eldest grandson and the eldest granddaughter.

This was also the first invisible contradiction between Gu Jinhe and the second branch of the Gu family.

People from several branches of the Gu family were looking at Gu Jinhe, waiting for her reaction. Whether the old lady asked her to sit in this position or it was Gu Jinhe's choice, it would be a new beginning for the Gu family.

As for the person at the center of this incident, Gu Jinkuan did not show any special emotion. His expression was gentle and unchanged.

His second uncle and second aunt were standing right next to him, and they didn't have any special reaction, as if this was just a simple position and didn't mean anything.

The people from the fifth room just wanted to make fun of the second room.

Especially Gu Jinyu, who almost had the words "watching a show" written on his face. A meaningful smile played on the corner of his mouth. He looked at Gu Jinkuan and then at Gu Jinhe, with both anticipation and a hint of annoyance.

It was true that he was looking forward to seeing the second house make a fool of itself, but he also didn't want to see Gu Jinhe's smug look.

Everyone's eyes finally fell on Gu Jinhe, who remained unresponsive.

The old lady looked at her with a far-sighted gaze, neither urging her nor asking her why she hadn't sat down yet.

Gu Jinhe turned her gaze to Gu Jinkuan and met his eyes. She did not see any anger or unwillingness in his eyes, only peace and calmness.

After noticing her gaze, Gu Jinkuan smiled at her gently without dodging.

At this moment, Gu Jinhe suddenly understood that the old lady's training of Gu Jinkuan was successful.

The next generation heir of the Gu family was trained very well by the old lady and is very outstanding. He has a broad mind that ordinary people cannot match.

He carries the responsibility of the entire Gu family on his shoulders. He never backs down and never shows any signs of being timid.

Even though he was facing the old lady who had placed high hopes on him from the very beginning, Gu Jinkuan could treat this as an ordinary change of seats and would not misinterpret the meaning of it.

Gu Jinhe nodded slightly at him, then sat down in the first seat on the left side of the old lady. Facing the old lady's gaze, she smiled and said, "I think my right side is grandma."

The old lady sighed in her heart and said helplessly, "But grandma also wants Miaomiao to be on my right hand side?"

When everyone saw Gu Jinhe sitting on the left side of the old lady, they felt relieved, but at the same time, they inexplicably felt a little regretful.

Judging from the old lady's attitude, she obviously wants Gu Jinhe to sit on the right and does not agree with her sitting on the left.

Facing the old lady's insistence, Gu Jinhe said with a slightly restrained expression: "Grandma, you can't have your cake and eat it too. We have been separated for twenty years before we finally meet. Please have pity on me. I really feel very safe sitting here."

Hearing this, the old lady looked at Gu Jinhe deeply, and then said: "Since you like it, then sit here, Jinkuan, come and sit down."

"Yes." Gu Jinkuan sat down calmly, as if he didn't know that this seat had just been given up by the old lady.

At this time, Gu Jinhong walked up to Gu Jinhe and whispered, "The seat you are sitting in belongs to my dad..."

“······”Gu Jinhe looked at his fourth uncle standing next to him, not knowing what expression to make.

Fortunately, Fourth Uncle was known for his good temper. When he saw that his seat was taken by his niece, he just laughed and sat down next to Gu Jinhe. He also said something that made Gu Jinhong almost burst out laughing.

"Now I, your fourth uncle, feel very safe!"

Fourth Aunt sat down and patted Gu Jinhong lightly: "What are you laughing at? Sit down quickly."

Gu Jinhong pursed his lips tightly to resist the urge to laugh, then turned to look at his fifth uncle who was sitting on his left, nodded slightly, then quickly lowered his head, not daring to think about it anymore.

Otherwise, he was afraid that he would embarrass himself at this party. Not only would he be embarrassed, he was also afraid of upsetting the old lady, who would then think of confining him to his room.

He had recently discovered that the old lady had a thing for grounding people.

After everyone was seated, the old lady said, "Today's party is the first time Miaomiao has attended since she came back. I'm very happy that all the people from our Gu family are here. It can be considered a family reunion."

As for why it is considered to be, everyone understands.

After the old lady finished her opening remarks, she asked the old butler to serve the dishes.

The old lady said to Gu Jinhe, "I know you have a light taste, so I specially asked the kitchen to prepare a few dishes from Jiangcheng. You can try them later. If you like them, ask the chef to cook them for you often in the future."

This was a trivial matter and harmless, so Gu Jinhe did not refuse.

The people from Room 5 hadn't spoken a word since they entered the lobby. When their seats were postponed without reason, they were angry but dared not say anything.

Ye Pingting held Gu Jinyu's hand tightly, telling him not to be impulsive.

Gu Feiwan felt bad when she looked at her brother with red eyes. She was unwilling to accept that Gu Jinhe had grabbed everyone's attention as soon as he came back. Now even her brother had to give up his seat to Gu Jinhe. She felt humiliated but also felt helpless.

No one could object to the old lady of the Gu family's words. Even her father had to listen and had no right to refuse.

What's more, her?

She has been the granddaughter that the old lady dislikes since she was a child.

If she wasn't the only granddaughter of the Gu family besides Gu Jinhe, and the only girl in the Gu family during the twenty years since Gu Jinhe disappeared, she would have been taken care of by everyone in the Gu family.

She should have been a favored child of heaven, but it was only because the old lady disliked her that she became so worried and anxious. She also disliked Gu Jinhe, a sister who was only half a year older than her.

After the dishes were served, everyone started to pick up their chopsticks and eat after the old lady used her chopsticks.

The dishes placed in front of Gu Jinhe were indeed Jiangcheng's specialties, and they were also the flavors that Gu Jinhe was used to eating.

But the person sitting here now is Gu Jinhe, who has been eating Beijing cuisine for five years and is already familiar with the taste here.

However, Gu Jinhe did not refuse. The old lady had made such an arrangement for her out of kindness, and she had not eaten Jiangcheng food for many years.

After she tasted it, Gu Jinhong asked her in a low voice how it tasted, bypassing his parents.

Gu Jinhe just smiled and indicated that he could try it.

Gu Jinhong stretched out his chopsticks to the dishes in front of Gu Jinhe with doubt. After eating each one, he shook his head. He liked spicy food and rarely ate such bland flavors.
