Chapter 247: Become the most beloved person in the group
As time went by, Lin Yuxi's life in the Gu family became smoother and smoother, and her intelligence and kindness won the love of the Gu family. However, Ye Qingqing was increasingly dissatisfied with everyone's attention to Lin Yuxi.
……
On this day, Wang Xiuyun decided to personally teach the two new daughters the necessary skills for noble ladies. Since they had been brought here, they had to be taught well.
Especially Yuxi, it makes people happy just thinking about the fact that she will be the one polishing and carving such a beautiful piece of jade!
In the spacious and bright living room, Wang Xiuyun sat solemnly, his eyes gentle yet firm.
"Yuxi, Qingqing, since you have entered this circle, you must possess certain skills and accomplishments." Wang Xiuyun said with a smile.
Lin Yuxi nodded slightly, her lips curled up, revealing a sweet smile, "Mom, I will study hard." Her eyes were full of confidence and expectation.
Ye Qingqing bit her lip and pretended to be well-behaved. "I will try my best, too, Mom."
Wang Xiuyun first began to teach etiquette, from sitting to standing, from the arc of a smile to eye contact. Lin Yuxi seemed to be born with a keen sense of these, and every movement was elegant and smooth, which made Wang Xiuyun nod and praise frequently.
"Yuxi, you did a great job. It's this kind of gesture that shows the demeanor of a lady from a noble family."
Lin Yuxi bowed slightly, "Thank you for the compliment, Mom."
Ye Qingqing was trying hard to imitate Wang Xiuyun, with beads of sweat on her forehead, but she could never meet Wang Xiuyun's requirements.
"Qingqing, straighten your waist a little more and don't look so panicked." Wang Xiuyun instructed patiently.
Ye Qingqing felt angry, but she didn't dare to show it. She could only grit her teeth and persevere.
Next was the dance class. As the music started, Lin Yuxi danced to the rhythm. Her figure was as light as a swallow and her movements were graceful and moving.
The servants of the Gu family watched from the side and couldn't help but admire.
"Miss Lin is such a wonderful person. She is so good at everything she does." The housekeeper whispered at the side.
"Yes, madam really chose the right person this time." The maid also agreed.
When these words reached Ye Qingqing's ears, her face became even uglier, and the dissatisfaction in her heart grew like weeds.
"Why does everyone only see the good in Lin Yuxi? Am I, Ye Qingqing, totally useless?" She thought angrily in her heart.
After the dance class, it was tea art class. Lin Yuxi skillfully manipulated the tea set, each step was precise and elegant, and the tea she brewed was fragrant.
"Not bad, you are clever and deft!" Wang Xiuyun picked up the teacup and tasted it with satisfaction.
Ye Qingqing watched all this and the teapot in her hand almost slipped. Her hands were shaking and the jealousy in her heart almost swallowed her up.
As the days passed, Lin Yuxi's life in the Gu family became smoother and smoother. Her intelligence and kindness not only won the love of Mrs. Gu, Wang Xiuyun, but also made the servants of the Gu family praise her.
"Miss Yuxi, these are freshly made snacks. Please try them." The maid smiled and handed the snacks to Lin Yuxi.
"Thank you, it looks delicious." Lin Yuxi responded with a smile.
In the garden, Gu Chengwu was pruning branches. Lin Yuxi walked over and said obediently, "Dad, let me help you."
Gu Chengwu couldn't help but smile on his usually serious face, "Okay, you are such a thoughtful kid!"
Lin Yuxi feels more and more at ease in the Gu family, but Ye Qingqing feels increasingly marginalized in the Gu family, and her dissatisfaction is accumulating more and more.
"Why is Lin Yuxi liked by everyone? How am I inferior to her?" Ye Qingqing talked to herself in front of the mirror in the room, her eyes full of resentment.
……
As for the three brothers of the Gu family, they finally attracted the attention of their friends because they frequently bought all kinds of things that girls liked for their two younger sisters, especially Lin Yuxi.
In the army, Political Commissar Li Ming looked at Gu Chuanming who was sorting documents and couldn't help asking, "Chuanming, I heard that you've been buying things for your sister recently. How come this tough guy also has a soft side?"
Gu Chuanming paused, looked up at Li Ming, and a hint of vigilance flashed in his eyes, "Why do you suddenly ask this?"
Li Ming walked forward, patted Gu Chuanming on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Don't be so nervous, I'm just curious. I've never seen you care so much about anyone before."
Gu Chuanming stood up and straightened his military uniform. "This is my family matter. There's nothing to say."
Li Ming curled his lips, "Oh, you're still keeping it a secret? What's our relationship? Just tell us a little bit."
Gu Chuanming folded his hands in front of his chest, his expression solemn, "Political Commissar, it's not that I don't want to tell you, but as a man, how can I just talk about girls' affairs everywhere! As time goes by, you will naturally know what you want to know."
Seeing Gu Chuanming's firm attitude, Li Ming shook his head helplessly, "Okay, kid, you're pretty tight-lipped."
……
At the same time, in the company, Gu Yifeng's best friend Zhao Yu walked into the president's office, sat down on the sofa, and crossed his legs. "Yifeng, I heard that you bought a lot of things for your sister recently. What's going on?"
Gu Yifeng sat at his desk and said without raising his head, "You are well-informed."
Zhao Yu sat up straight and came over with a curious look on his face. "Tell me quickly, is there any special reason?"
Gu Yifeng stopped writing and raised his head, his eyes showing a hint of mystery. "I can't tell you for now, you will know later."
Zhao Yu snorted in dissatisfaction, "You are still keeping me in suspense. We are good brothers who wear the same pants."
Gu Yifeng smiled slightly, "It is precisely because we are good brothers that I cannot tell you now. If something goes wrong, I will not be able to explain it."
Zhao Yu scratched his head. "What could go wrong? The less you tell me, the more curious I am."
Gu Yifeng leaned back in his chair, crossed his hands on his chest, "Curiosity kills the cat, you'd better not ask."
Zhao Yu's personality is not suitable for my sister, so don't let him go up and fall in love with her!
Oh, this brother has done something really amazing, he has considered everything!
……
On the other side, Gu Xingchen's agent, Sister Wang, was in the dressing room. Looking at Gu Xingchen who was putting on makeup, she couldn't help but ask, "Xingchen, I heard that you were also buying things for your sister. Is there anything new?"
Gu Xingchen glanced at Sister Wang through the mirror, "Sister Wang, why are you asking this?"
Sister Wang raised her eyebrows, pulled a chair over and sat down next to Gu Xingchen, "Xingchen, you know, as your agent, I have to pay attention to all your dynamics. Buying things for my sister is no small matter, maybe it can become a good publicity point."
Gu Xingchen frowned and stopped fixing her hair. "Sister Wang, this is my family affair. I don't want to use it for show."
Sister Wang gently patted Gu Xingchen's shoulder and said, "Xingchen, don't be so stubborn. Think about it, the audience now likes this kind of warm and loving character. If you establish the image of a good brother, it will only benefit your career and not harm it."
Gu Xingchen turned his head and looked at Sister Wang firmly, "Sister Wang, if I say no, it means no. I am kind to my sisters from the bottom of my heart, not for others to see. Besides, my sisters just arrived home, and I don't want them to be disturbed in any way."
Sister Wang sighed helplessly, "Okay, okay, I know you love your sister. But you also have to consider your career development. By the way, how old is your sister? What does she look like?"
Gu Xingchen's expression eased a little, "They are both just turned 18, pretty and well-behaved."
When Sister Wang heard this, her eyes lit up. "Oh, then can you bring it out for everyone to see? Just to satisfy our curiosity."
Gu Xingchen refused without hesitation: "Sister Wang, please don't think about this. They need a peaceful life, and I don't want to cause them trouble because of my identity."
Sister Wang curled her lips, "Okay, okay, I can't persuade you. Then you have to find the right balance and don't let family matters affect your work."
Gu Xingchen nodded, "Sister Wang, don't worry, I know what's going on."
At this time, the makeup artist said, "Okay, Xingchen."
Gu Xingchen stood up, straightened his clothes, and said to Sister Wang: "Sister Wang, I'm going to work first."
Sister Wang waved her hand and said, "Go ahead and perform well."
