Chapter 143 Do you have the right person?
When Yunshang and his wife heard this, Gu Shaoheng asked in surprise, "Mom, why haven't I heard you talk about this before?"
Madam Gu glanced at the couple before saying, "This is what we discussed these days, and we haven't had time to tell you yet.
I thought that since everyone is coming here anyway, it doesn’t matter if I tell you after they get here.
What, you don't welcome us to move to Los Angeles?"
Gu Shaoheng quickly denied, "How is that possible? I'm so happy that you guys can come and our whole family can be together. How can I not welcome you?"
After hearing what he said, Madam Gu hummed in satisfaction. She looked around and found that Yun Jiuxi was not at home. She frowned slightly and said, "By the way, where is Jiuxi? Why can't I see her? Doesn't she know that we elders are here?"
Yun Shang quickly explained, "It's almost Chinese New Year, Jiuxi is still busy at the Chinese medicine clinic, so he will be back a little later."
The relative said, "Jiuxi is your niece Yunshang, right? She is just lucky to have an uncle like Shaoheng. If it were someone else, how could they train her so vigorously?
Now that she has become successful, she will definitely show respect to you and Third Sister-in-law."
Yun Shang agreed with a smile: "Yes, Shaoheng is indeed very good to Jiuxi, treating her like his own daughter, and Jiuxi respects him very much.
That child is usually very filial to us, and is also very good to Xingchen and Qingyun."
Another relative suddenly replied, "If they are not biological children, it will be different no matter how close they are."
Yun Shang was very displeased when she heard this and wanted to refute, but Gu Shaoheng held her hand and shook his head at her, so Yun Shang forced herself to endure it.
Seeing that the two were an old couple but still holding hands, Aunt Gu He Meizhen joked, "Second brother and second sister-in-law have such a good relationship. They are still holding hands at this age. I really envy you two."
Gu Shaoheng smiled and admitted generously: "I'm sorry to make you elders and my sister-in-law laugh at me, but we are usually like this as husband and wife."
Everyone laughed and said a few words about how good the relationship between the two was, and someone brought the topic back to Yun Jiuxi: "I heard that the Li's Chinese Medicine Clinic opened by the niece of Shao Heng's wife is not only famous in Luocheng, but also in our Qingcheng. Last time, several of my old friends knew that I was coming to Luocheng for treatment, and they all said that if I could cure it, they would come and see it too."
Madam Gu's brother, Mr. Chen, was more concerned about the money Yun Jiuxi invested: "Shao Heng, Yun Jiuxi's startup money wasn't also invested by you, right?"
Gu Shaoheng explained: "Uncle, the money for opening the Chinese medicine clinic was earned by Jiuxi herself, not given by us. Besides, we are just a bodyguard company, where would we get so much money for her to start a business."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Chen nodded and said, "It's good that it's not yours.
Shaoheng, I'm not saying anything bad about you and your wife. You only have a niece. It's good enough that you can raise her and let her go to college. Don't invest a lot of money in her.
Even if you want to invest, you should invest more in Huaiyu and Jingyu, because they are the hope for the future of our Gu family."
Yun Shang was a little unhappy after hearing what her uncle, Old Man Chen, said. The money was theirs and they could spend it on whoever they wanted. Why should they give it to Huaiyu and Jingyu? Do they have no parents or what?
Besides, Jiuxi has more money than them. In the end, the couple took advantage of Jiuxi by setting up the bodyguard company under the name of Yun Group.
She thought so in her heart, but she couldn't say it out loud, especially in front of the elders of the Gu family. She could only remain silent, and Gu Shaoheng also laughed it off.
"Yes, Huaiyu, Jingyu, Xingchen, Qingyun, Qingyue, Qingqing and others are the hope of our Gu family in the future. Our Gu family will rely on the young generation from now on."
Gu Shaoheng knew that the elderly people in his hometown had some feudal ideas, which was to put it bluntly, they favored boys over girls.
Speaking of his two nieces, Gu Shaoheng realized that they didn't come along this time, so he asked, "Speaking of Qingyue and Qingqing, why didn't they come?"
Aunt Gu's wife, Priscilla Chan, smiled and continued, "They went out to play with their friends a few days ago. They will fly directly from there to Los Angeles to meet us tomorrow."
Gu Shaoheng: "That's fine too. Tell me the flight time and I'll ask the driver to pick them up."
Aunt Gu He Meizhen smiled and refused: "Don't bother, second brother. Qingqing's friends are also from Los Angeles. When their family members go to pick them up, they will help send them back."
Gu Qingyue's grandfather, Gu Dasao's biological father, said with pride: "Qingyue's friend's family is very rich. It is said that his family runs a company. He has the best relationship with Qingyue. The two have been inseparable since high school."
Immediately, someone started to speak well of them and praised the cousins Gu Qingyue and Gu Qingqing highly.
With a "creak", the door of the villa opened. Yun Jiuxi walked in from outside, dragging his tired body. When he saw the room full of people, he remembered that today was the day when Madam Gu and others came.
Ever since the Chinese medicine hospital got involved in a lawsuit a week ago, the business of their Li's Chinese Medicine Clinic has been better than before. There are also patients who specifically ask Yun Jiuxi to see them, otherwise they will gather at the door of the clinic and refuse to leave. Yun Jiuxi has no choice but to bite the bullet and go ahead.
I don’t know if it’s because the Chinese New Year is approaching, but the number of people today is more than double that of yesterday. After work, Yun Jiuxi just wants to go home, take a hot bath, lie in the warm bed and have a good sleep.
She endured the exhaustion all over her body and smiled as she walked forward to greet the elders: "Grandma, uncle, uncle, aunt, third uncle, third aunt, you are here. I'm sorry, there are too many patients today and I don't have time to pick you up."
Ever since Yun Shang brought Yun Jiuxi to marry Gu Shaoheng, Yun Jiuxi has been calling Gu family members the same way as Gu Qingyun and his siblings did.
Yun Shang saw her tired face and said distressedly: "Your grandmother and the others know that you are busy and will not blame you.
You must be tired. Go take a hot bath and lie down for a while. I'll call you when it's time for dinner."
Yun Jiuxi nodded, greeted a few elders, and turned to go upstairs.
Yun Shang also said a few words to the elders, and then went about her business. An old lady with gray hair and several missing teeth looked at Yun Jiuxi's back and said, "Third sister-in-law, Jiuxi looks quite old, right? Have you found someone?"
When asked this question, Madam Gu answered honestly, "I really don't know. How come you have a suitable family?"
The toothless old lady smiled and said: "Where can I find a suitable family? I think Jiuxi is pretty and capable. Even if there are young men of similar age, I am afraid that they are not worthy of Jiuxi.
