Mei Feng is easy-going, makes jokes from time to time, and is easy to get along with.It can only be said that he is indeed the apprentice taught by Xu Chengyu. Gu Yunji sees many shadows of his own teacher in him, and he feels very warm in his heart.

After half a day of chatting, Gu Yunji felt that he and Mei Feng had become much closer.

The sun was getting higher and it was time to have lunch. Gu Yunji asked Mei Feng: "Senior brother, should we have lunch with us at the government office, or should we find a restaurant alone?"

"Actually, it's okay, I don't care." After thinking about it, Mei Feng added, "But there are so many people in the government office, it's inconvenient for us to talk, and the restaurant is too expensive. How about... let's have a meal at your house? It's been a while. I’m meeting Shuhua, so I can just take a look at her, but I don’t know if I can disturb her?”

Gu Yunji said in surprise: "How could it be? As long as senior brother doesn't dislike it, Shuhua and I will definitely welcome it."

Gu Yunji originally wanted to invite Mei Feng to his home for dinner, but he didn't know if he had other official duties during his trip, which might delay his schedule.Since Mei Feng had already offered it, Gu Yunji naturally would not refuse and took him home together.

Gu Yunji sent someone back early in the morning to report that he would bring guests for lunch at noon. As soon as he heard the news of his return, Gu Zhaoxi ran out happily: "Dad!"

The moment he saw Gu Zhaoxi, Mei Feng was stunned - the little girl in front of him looked so much like Xu Shuhua when he was a child.

When he became a disciple of Xu Chengyu, Xu Shuhua was only about that old, about five or six years old.Every time he and his teacher came back from outside, Xu Shuhua would also throw himself into Xu Chengyu's arms from a distance, smiling lively and brightly.

Looking at Gu Zhaoxi being hugged by Gu Yunji, Mei Feng was in a daze. He could hardly tell what year it was today, and even began to subconsciously wonder: After so many years, why hasn't Xu Shuhua grown up?

"Senior Brother Mei, what are you doing standing still?"

A soft and smiling female voice came. When Mei Feng looked up, he saw the grown-up Xu Shuhua standing in front and smiling at him.He came back to his senses instantly, looked at Xu Shuhua, then at Gu Zhaoxi, shook his head and laughed: "Your daughter looks so much like you when you were a child. I almost mistaken her for you. I can't tell what year it is now. ”

Gu Yunji smiled and said, "Everyone who has met Xi'er says so."

Gu Yunji and Xu Shuhua had known each other since they were young. He had never seen her lively and young, which made her feel very regretful.Fortunately, his daughter looks very much like his wife. Through Gu Zhaoxi, Gu Yunji can also get a glimpse of Xu Shuhua's childhood style.

At a quick glance, Gu Zhaoxi looked like the young Xu Shuhua at least [-]%. After a closer look, Mei Feng felt that there was more confidence in her eyebrows to win her parents' love. At first glance, she seemed to have grown up in a honey pot. children.

Mei Feng also became a father. The more he looked at Gu Zhaoxi, the happier he became, and asked: "Your name is Xi'er? How old are you?"

"Yes, my name is Gu Zhaoxi, and I have just turned five." After that, Gu Yunji said to his daughter, "Xier, this is dad's senior brother, Uncle Mei. Like dad, he is also my grandfather's apprentice. Say hello to Uncle Mei."

Gu Zhaoxi blinked her big bright eyes and said in a clear voice: "Hello, Uncle Mei~"

Mei Feng's heart almost melted when he was called. He narrowed his eyes with laughter and softened his tone involuntarily: "Hello, hello -" Lunch would not be ready for a while. After a brief greeting, several people entered the room. Everyone took their seats.

Mei Feng looked at Gu Zhaoxi, who was clinging to his parents obediently, and sighed: "You and your wife are so lucky to have such a beautiful and sensible child, who is caring at first sight. Unlike the two brats in my family who caused so much trouble in the house. If a dog jumps, it won’t be happy if he doesn’t get beaten for a day.”

Xu Shuhua said with a smile: "Since Senior Brother Mei said that Xi'er looks like me, have you forgotten what I was like when I was a child? She is well-behaved right now, and she doesn't worry at home on weekdays. She doesn't know where to sneak away when she's not looking at her. Got into trouble secretly."

"Not to mention anything else, she just picked out all the potted green plants at home. All the flowers and grass were left bare. I was embarrassed to show them off."

Mei Feng looked around and found that there was not a pot of green plants in the living room. He couldn't help but laugh and said with relief: "It's a good thing for children to be naughty. Being able to jump and make noises shows that they are healthy. If she stays silent all day long, Sitting quietly on the ground is really worrying."

Xu Shuhua seemed to be complaining about his daughter's naughtyness, but in fact his tone was full of doting. While talking, he couldn't help but touch Gu Zhaoxi's head.

In this era, the child mortality rate is high. Sometimes in wealthy families who have no worries about food and clothing, only five or six out of ten children can grow up safely to adulthood.Especially after knowing that Gu Yunji had drunk the heirloom medicine, Xu Shuhua was frightened day and night, looking at his only baby daughter like eyeballs, fearing that something would happen to her.

Fortunately, she was overly worried. Gu Zhaoxi was healthier than most children of the same age. She had almost never been sick since birth, and her body and bones were stronger than many adults.Although a large part of this is due to Xu Shuhua's careful upbringing, she also believes that children running and jumping can indeed enhance their physical fitness.

As Mei Feng said, it is better to dance and make noise than to sit quietly.

Mei Feng looked at Gu Zhaoxi's well-behaved and sensible face, and it was hard to imagine what she looked like when she was naughty. He felt more and more interesting in his heart, and as he thought together, he said with a smile:
"My wife and I have only raised two sons. We have always wanted a daughter, but unfortunately we have not been able to do so. Our two families happen to be very close, so how about we simply get closer and let Xi'er recognize me as her godfather?"

"that's not allowed."

Before Gu Yunji and his wife could speak, Gu Zhaoxi shook his little head and said seriously: "Xi'er already has a godfather. You can't recognize a second godfather."

"Really? Xi'er already has a godfather?" Mei Feng was a little surprised when he heard this and deliberately teased her, "But Uncle Mei is very powerful. He has become a high official and is very majestic. Do you want to consider changing to a godfather? "

"No!" Gu Zhaoxi flatly rejected him, "It's not unusual to be a high official. My godfather is also a high official, and he can also fly, soaring up trees! He is the most powerful!"

From this description, he sounds like a military attache.Mei Feng was curious and asked Gu Yunji: "Who is Xi'er's godfather? Can he actually fly?"

Gu Yunji smiled and said: "Where can I fly? I can't remember Xi'er at such a young age. It's too exaggerated. Her godfather is Dingguo Gong Su Qi. My classmate and teacher at Luxi Academy are also familiar with her. When he heard about it, When Shuhua and I got married, we decided early on to be the godfather of our child, so we got ahead of Senior Brother Mei."

"It turns out to be Dingguo Gong, no wonder. He has superb martial arts skills and is really agile. Xi'er said he can 'fly', which is true." Speaking of this, Mei Feng remembered again, "I came to Shaoxing this time. In addition to visiting you and your wife, I also have something to tell my junior brother." (End of Chapter)
