Chapter 1042: Finding a Man Is an Excellent Proposal!
Cough, cough, cough.Everyone in the living room was instantly at a loss for words!
While arranging a pile of gifts that came with him, Bao Gucheng pushed the door open. Upon hearing Xi Zuzi’s shocking words, his eyes flickered.
He just left for a few seconds, and the little woman was taken away and even learned how to "drive"?
He strode forward and discreetly pulled Xi Zuzi from Gu Qiusha’s embrace. He spoke calmly, "Zuzi means you work hard every day to do good deeds, and the gods will bless you with your wishes fulfilled."
Only then did everyone breathe a sigh of relief: "So that’s what it meant."
Xi Zuzi blinked and looked at Bao Gucheng.
She wanted to refute, saying that Ancestor didn’t mean that. Ancestor meant that they were busily "engaging" every night, and had now successfully "sown seeds."
Oh well, it’s rare for a young man to promote good deeds daily. Let’s just say it adds to his limited lifespan blessings; she decided not to expose him.
As they were talking, they heard the hurried sound of a cane striking the floor from the stairs.
Mr. Gu hurriedly came downstairs, his voice arriving before he did: "My dear granddaughter Zuzi—what a good girl! I missed you so much! Going to university was like being kidnapped into a bandit’s den, not even able to come home once. If I knew, I wouldn’t have sent you to this lousy Imperial University..."
Everyone: "..."
Tonight, Imperial University received the worst and most unjust insult ever.
The joy of reunion after a short separation was still present at the dinner table.
The table was filled with beautifully presented dishes, yet Mr. Gu, the second family, Gu Qiusha, and others were all vying to move what they thought were the "best" dishes over to Xi Zuzi.
Thus, the dishes before Xi Zuzi changed constantly like a kaleidoscope, and everyone wanted to personally deliver the dishes to her mouth.
But Xi Zuzi wasn’t that fond of earthly food, so tasting a bite was already giving face.
Gu Qiusha was worried: "Zuzi, I wonder if it’s the military training that’s worsened your appetite? We need to find a foolproof solution..."
Xi Rubao, her belly full and round, asked: "What solution, Mommy?"
Unless Mommy had divine powers, it would be impossible to make her Ancestor Sister eat more!
Gu Qiusha slapped her thigh: "Find her a boyfriend at university, someone who can eat with her every day, watch over her while she eats, and take care of her meals!"
Xi Rubao nearly choked to death on a piece of sweet and sour pork rib: "Cough, cough, cough!"
Goodness, this divine power...
Do you not know I already have a brother-in-law?
No, wait, seems like no one in the family knows!
Xi Rubao silently swallowed the choking piece of rib, and nervously looked at Bao Gucheng.
Bao Gucheng appeared calm, yet he used long chopsticks to pick up a piece of steamed lily with lotus leaves and placed it in Xi Zuzi’s bowl, then slowly said: "Miss Gu’s suggestion is quite good."
Brother-in-law!
Are you crazy? Are you trying to announce and scare the entire family?
Xi Rubao was stunned.
Before she could intervene, Gu Yuzhi, who was ten times more nervous than her, quickly changed the subject: "Today, Jing Yan isn’t back for dinner? And what about those two from the third family?"
The second family’s Gu Xizhi laughed: "Brother, you still care about Zuzi. Heard she returned, and you rushed back in the middle of a court session. That good-for-nothing Jing Yan said he was clearing relics with his advisor in some Pangu Tomb. No signal, hung up before anything meaningful was discussed."
Qin Tao also added: "The two from the third family have been acting odd recently, hardly at home. Though Pingting sometimes quietly delivers fruit back, she’s too ashamed to enter."
Xi Rubao murmured: "At least she’s showing some repentance, knowing being expelled was deserved and realizing that regardless of having the Gu Family identity, one should respect Grandfather!"
Qin Tao nodded: "Yes, Pingting seems more sensible than those two from the third family..."
Seeing the topic finally diverted, Gu Yuzhi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Who would guess.
The next moment.
Gu Qiusha seamlessly continued with her earlier topic: "Mr. Bo, you also think finding a boyfriend for Zuzi is particularly necessary, right?"
