Chapter 246: Relying on Beauty to Make a Comeback
When Wang Xiuyun heard this, she stared at Lin Yuxi with astonishment on her face. She quickly stood up and walked forward, holding Lin Yuxi's hand and said:
"Oh, kid, you look so outstanding. Don't your mother and the others feel at ease? We were too narrow-minded before."
The servant beside her couldn't help but exclaimed in a low voice: "This Miss Lin is really like a fairy."
Lin Yuxi smiled slightly and politely responded to Madam Gu: "Madam, you are too kind."
Wang Xiuyun pulled Lin Yuxi to sit on the sofa, and said with a smile on her face: "Why call me Madam? Call me Mom. I will be your mother from now on. Treat this place as your own home and don't be polite." As she said that, she took out a thick red envelope from her pocket and handed it to Lin Yuxi, "Child, this is the money for changing your name. Take it."
Lin Yuxi took the red envelope shyly and called out sweetly, "Mom."
"Hey!" Wang Xiuyun responded happily, turning to look at Gu Chengwu, "Old man, don't just stand there."
Gu Chengwu laughed heartily, took out a red envelope and handed it to Lin Yuxi, saying, "My daughter, we are a family from now on."
Lin Yuxi called out again obediently: "Dad."
Ye Qingqing, who was standing by, was a little confused and embarrassed as she watched this heartwarming scene. She bit her lip, wondering if she should take this opportunity to change her mind.
Just as she was hesitating, Wang Xiuyun seemed to suddenly remember something, looked at Ye Qingqing, and said, "Qingqing, don't be so formal. Although you and Yuxi entered our house at the same time today, it's up to you to change your mind."
A trace of gratitude appeared on Ye Qingqing's face. She took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to say, "Dad, Mom, I will be filial to you in the future."
Wang Xiuyun smiled and nodded, and handed Ye Qingqing two red envelopes: "Good children, with you here, our family is more lively."
After she finished speaking, she turned to the servant beside her and instructed, "From now on, these are the two young ladies of our Gu family. Go and bring up the snacks and fruits prepared by the kitchen. Don't neglect them."
The servant quickly responded, "Yes, ma'am, I'll go right away."
At this time, Gu Chengwu also said: "These two children look good. I'm afraid that the threshold of our house will be broken by people in the future!"
Mrs. Gu nodded repeatedly: "That's right, I think the clothes and jewelry I prepared for them in the room are too simple, so they should take a day off today, and tomorrow I will take them around and buy some things."
Lin Yuxi said softly: "Thank you, Mom. You've taken so much trouble."
As they were talking, Gu Mingxuan, the eldest son of the Gu family, came back. He was dressed in a military uniform, looking heroic, and asked as soon as he entered the door: "Mom, I heard that there are two new sisters in the family?"
Madam Gu smiled and pointed in the direction of Lin Yuxi and Ye Qingqing: "Mingxuan, come and see, these are your two sisters."
Gu Mingxuan's eyes first fell on Lin Yuxi, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he showed a gentle smile: "Welcome to the Gu family."
Ye Qingqing called out obediently, "Big Brother."
Lin Yuxi also smiled and said, "Hello, big brother."
Gu Mingxuan nodded, took out two exquisite small boxes from his pocket, and handed them to Lin Yuxi and Ye Qingqing respectively: "This is a gift for you, I hope you like it."
Ye Qingqing happily took it: "Thank you, brother."
Lin Yuxi thanked him politely: "Thank you, brother."
Gu Mingxuan looked at Lin Yuxi and said, "If you need anything in the Gu family in the future, just let me know."
Not long after, Gu Yifeng, the second son of the Gu family, also came back. He was dressed in a suit and had an extraordinary temperament. As soon as he entered the door, he shouted, "Mom, I heard that there are two more sisters in the family?"
Mrs. Gu scolded, "You kid, you're making such a loud noise. Come and see it."
When Gu Yifeng saw Lin Yuxi, he was also slightly stunned, and then smiled and said, "These two sisters are really as beautiful as flowers." As he said that, he also took out two gifts and handed them to them, "This is a little gift from my second brother."
Lin Yuxi and Ye Qingqing thanked him again.
At this moment, Gu Xingchen, the third son of the Gu family, rushed in in a hurry: "I'm back! I heard that I have a sister?"
When he saw Lin Yuxi, he exclaimed exaggeratedly: "Wow, is this really my sister? She is so beautiful!" Then he took out a few autographed photos from his bag and handed them to Lin Yuxi and Ye Qingqing, "Sisters, these are my autographed photos for you."
Everyone was amused by his appearance.
Madam Gu smiled and said, "You are such a dishonest child."
Gu Xingchen chuckled: "I am not happy."
Everyone was chatting animatedly in the living room, and their concern and love for Lin Yuxi were evident in their words.
"Yuxi, take a look at the room prepared for you. Do you like the style? If you don't like it, we will rearrange it immediately." Mrs. Gu asked with concern.
Lin Yuxi lowered her eyes slightly and said softly: "Mom, the room is very beautiful, I like it very much."
Wang Xiuyun smiled and said, "As long as you like it, kid. Also, what kind of dishes do you like to eat? Tell the kitchen and ask them to make it for you."
Lin Yuxi looked at Wang Xiuyun gratefully: "Thank you, Mom. I'm not picky about food. Don't worry too much."
Mrs. Gu held Lin Yuxi's hand and said gently: "Yuxi, don't be restrained when you come to Gu's house. Treat this place as your own home."
Lin Yuxi nodded heavily: "Yes, Mom, I understand."
Ye Qingqing watched everyone surrounding Lin Yuxi, feeling jealous but unable to show it, so she could only smile and agree.
When it was dinner time, the table was filled with sumptuous dishes.
Wang Xiuyun kept picking up food for Lin Yuxi: "Yuxi, eat more. You look so thin."
Lin Yuxi was a little flattered: "Thank you, Mom. I can do it myself."
Gu Mingxuan said, "Mom, don't be too enthusiastic. Be careful not to scare your sister."
Wang Xiuyun rolled her eyes at him and said, "I'm just happy."
Gu Yifeng also smiled and said, "Yes, Mom is particularly happy today."
Gu Xingchen said: "How can I not be happy with such a beautiful sister?"
The dinner ended with laughter.
At night, Lin Yuxi returned to her room, lay on the bed, and slept soundly and comfortably, while Ye Qingqing tossed and turned for a long time before she could barely fall asleep.
The next day, Wang Xiuyun took Lin Yuxi and Ye Qingqing shopping.
As soon as they entered the mall, Wang Xiuyun said to Lin Yuxi, "Yuxi, feel free to pick whatever you like. Don't be polite."
Lin Yuxi said: "Mom, you are spending too much."
Wang Xiuyun smiled and said, "It's not a big deal. Girls should dress up beautifully."
Ye Qingqing followed silently by the side, and felt more and more uncomfortable when she saw Wang Xiuyun doting on Lin Yuxi.
In a clothing store, Wang Xiuyun selected several beautiful dresses for Lin Yuxi and asked her to try them on.
Lin Yuxi changed her clothes and came out, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
Wang Xiuyun said with satisfaction: "It looks good, very good, wrap it all up."
The shop assistants also praised: "This lady looks good in anything she wears."
Ye Qingqing tried on several pieces, but didn't get the same praise as Lin Yuxi, which made her even more jealous.
After returning home from shopping, Mrs. Gu asked the servants to deliver the newly bought things to Lin Yuxi and Ye Qingqing's rooms.
In the evening, Gu Chengwu returned home and Mrs. Gu told him what happened today.
Gu Chengwu said: "You just pamper them too much."
Madam Gu said, "Girls should be pampered."
