Chapter 1146: Too Tragic, Too Tragic
Gu Yundong turned the little girl around so that she could greet Gu Xiaoxi.
Gu Xiaoxi looked at her with a face full of excitement and tears in his eyes. Two years ago, she was a little girl who could only sleep in a wicker basket and could not even walk. Now, she could run and jump healthily.
‘Good. That’s good.’
“Are you Keke?”
The little girl nodded vigorously. “Are you Uncle?”
Gu Xiaoxi reached out and carried the little girl over. “Yes, I’m your uncle. Little Keke has grown taller and prettier.”
The young lady immediately covered her face shyly. Then, she paused and lowered her head. She took out a date from her small bag and stuffed it into Gu Xiaoxi’s mouth. After some thought, she took out dried fruits and placed them in his hand.
Then, she raised her head and looked at him carefully. She muttered softly, “You’re still too thin.”
Hence, she continued to dig around in her bag. After taking out a handful of melon seeds and stuffing them into the pocket of her clothes, she removed the entire bag from her neck. After a moment of silence, she gritted her teeth and stuffed it all into Gu Xiaoxi’s arms.
Gu Xiaoxi was speechless.
Gu Yundong almost died of laughter when she saw the fearless expression on her face. “Why did you give all your precious snacks to Youngest Uncle?”
Out of sight, out of mind. The little girl focused on Gu Yundong and said, “Eldest Aunt said that Younger Uncle had suffered a lot. He must not have been able to eat his fill in the past two years, and his clothes are not warm. He might even be missing an arm or a leg. That’s really pitiful. I saw just now that what Eldest Aunt said is actually true. Younger Uncle is so thin that he doesn’t have any fat. I’ll give him some nourishment.”
As she had stuffed a date into his mouth, Gu Xiaoxi had no choice but to eat it first.
He had just finished eating and was about to speak when he was so frightened that he almost swallowed the core.
He quickly coughed twice. Chang Yaya quickly made him spit out the core and let him take a sip of water from the water bag. Only then did he catch his breath.
The little girl looked puzzled. Was that date… poisonous?
Gu Xiaoxi waved her hand, smiled, and hung the small bag back around her neck. He said, “Little Uncle is quite good. He’s not very miserable.”
“Yes, you are.”
“I really am not.”
“It’s too tragic.” The little girl was very determined.
“…”
Gu Yundong held back her laughter. Two voices finally came from outside. “Eldest Sister, let’s go home first. Father and Aunt are waiting at home.”
“That’s right. My mother and uncle must be anxious.”
Yunshu and Yuanzhi were a step behind Keke, so when they saw Keke being carried into the carriage, they noticed that other than Eldest Sister and Uncle, there was also a woman in the carriage.
This should be Little Aunt Hong Xiaoni, right?
Although they were also very excited and happy, they were already men now. Men couldn’t casually squeeze in, so they stood by the carriage and waited until they were almost done speaking before reminding them.
Gu Xiaoxi looked at the two children standing in front of the carriage, his eyes shining. “Yunshu, Yuanzhi.”
“Uncle.”
“Uncle.”
“Welcome home.”
Gu Xiaoxi was excited. Really, they were all here. It was great that everyone was here.
“Uncle, sit down first. Let’s go back.”
Yunshu and Yuanzhi immediately turned around. They didn’t get into the carriage but ran back to the alley.
Gu Xiaoxi became even more excited and did not notice that Gu Yunke was looking at Chang Yaya curiously.
It was Gu Yundong who introduced them. “This is Little Aunt.”
