Yun Jiao didn’t notice that the mont Gu Chuan saw Gu i, his face turned extrely unpleasant.
The scene in front of the Zhao Family Ancestral Hall that day, Gu Chuan will never forget in his life.
Even though he was young, he knew how shaful it was for a woman to be naked in public.
He didn’t know where Gu i had gone; he thought he could soon forget that he had such a sister.
Now he no longer called Yun Jiao second sister; he just called her sister.
Even in the dim light, Gu i noticed the contempt and disgust that flashed in Gu Chuan’s eyes.
Her head slowly lowered.
Gu Lian heard Yun Jiao’s voice and quickly ca out of the main room, "Oh, is this Xiao Chuan? Haven’t seen him for years, he’s grown so tall!"
Gu Chuan obediently called out, "Auntie."
Gu Lian was overjoyed, "Co in and sit down."
Gu i stood by the door, her head lowered, and when the two entered the main room, she went into her own room and closed the door.
Gu Lian led the siblings inside, pointing to Shen Qing who had just co out of the back room and said, "Yun Jiao, rember? This is your cousin Shen Qing. When he was young, he always liked to run behind you."
Yun Jiao only had vague mories of Shen Qing, as Gu Lian only returned to her maiden ho once every year or two.
Gu Lian turned and shouted, "i Er, pour so tea."
But she suddenly noticed that Gu i was gone.
She was montarily stunned, about to say sothing when another person ca out of the room.
Yun Jiao exclaid in surprise, "Uncle?"
This person, apart from his facial features which were basically unchanged, looked far different from her impression of her uncle.
The previous uncle was tall and strong, but now he was very thin, with many wrinkles on his face, and his shoulders unconsciously raised when he walked, looking like he was hunching his neck.
Every step he took, his mouth and nose emitted a sound like a bellows.
Yun Jiao imdiately understood, Uncle had severe asthma.
She hurriedly said, "Uncle, please sit down."
An asthma patient breathes with great difficulty, so any physical exertion beyond breathing, such as walking or talking, is a heavy burden for him.
Shen Dahe slowly sat down, laboriously giving Yun Jiao a smile, "Long ti no see, didn’t expect you’ve grown into a young lady, grown beautiful."
mories in Yun Jiao’s mind slowly resurfaced.
Aunt and Uncle only had one son, Shen Qing. Uncle always wanted a daughter, but unfortunately, Aunt’s health was ruined when she gave birth to Shen Qing and couldn’t have more children.
Every ti Shen Dahe saw Yun Jiao, he always liked to lift her high and ask, "Why don’t you co ho with and be my daughter?"
Whenever they t, he would always secretly give Yun Jiao a few copper coins. It wasn’t much money, but Yun Jiao understood since she was young that it wasn’t just money; it was a gesture of love from an elder.
Recalling the past, Yun Jiao realized she was actually quite favored by her elders as a child; they all liked to secretly give her money.
She nodded, "Uncle, if you find it hard, don’t speak."
She asked Gu Lian, "Is Uncle currently taking dicine?"
Gu Lian smiled awkwardly, "Only when the asthma is severe does he take dicine for a while; usually, it’s not too serious."
Even in this condition, they’re still saying it’s not serious.
Yun Jiao understood, it’s because there’s no money for dicine.
She got up, sat beside Uncle, and indicated for him to put his hand on the table.
Uncle said blankly, "What for?"
Gu Lian wiped her eyes, "Yun Jiao is now the most famous doctor in Xiang City, she’s giving you a check-up."
She didn’t tell her husband about today’s matter, fearing Yun Jiao wouldn’t acknowledge her, and she would be ashad before her husband.
