After a while, the caller came out, followed by a middle-aged man who looked somewhat similar to Father Gu.

"Counter, this little lady is looking for you." The clerk pointed at Gu Yunxi and said, and then went to do other things.

As Gu Laoer got closer, he saw that it was Gu Yunxi who was looking for him.

However, Gu Yunxi was much paler and fatter than when she was at her parents' home. If she hadn't gotten closer and looked carefully, she would have been almost unrecognizable.

When Gu Laoer was sizing up his niece, Gu Yunxi was also sizing him up. The clerk of this restaurant was really his second uncle, Gu Ergen.

Compared to Father Gu, the second uncle obviously looks more like Mr. Gu.

In the memory of the original owner, this second uncle was away all year round and would only come home during holidays.

I remember one year during the Spring Festival, the old Gu family killed an old hen. When the family was eating, Yun Le wanted to use his chopsticks to pick up the chicken legs, but Mrs. Gu knocked her hand hard with the chopsticks.

It was Uncle Gu who stood up, spoke for Yun Le, and gave Yun Le the chicken legs in his bowl.

Thinking of this, Gu Yunxi felt warm in his heart and had a good impression of Uncle Gu. He smiled at him and said hello: "Second Uncle!"

"Yunxi girl, why are you here?" Uncle Gu was a little surprised. Could it be that something happened at home?

Gu Yunxi: "Second uncle, didn't Yunhong take the college examination? I haven't heard anything from him since my second aunt took him to my place last time. I had nothing to do at home, so I came over to ask."

It turned out that he was asking about his son. Uncle Gu was slightly relieved that it was not just something happened at home.

However, what Yun Xi said was what he and Wu were worried about. It had been nearly a month since their son went to Fucheng to take the exam, and there was no news at all.

These days, his wife Wu is extremely anxious and has mentioned it to him several times, which makes him feel a little anxious.

"Yunxi, your cousin Yunhong has been in Fucheng for nearly a month, but he still hasn't come back with any news. Your aunt has been talking about it these days!"

Uncle Gu sighed, his face full of worry. He didn't know how his son did in the exam.

Gu Yunxi was also a little surprised. Could it be that the arrangements for the college exams have changed this year? But according to Lu Jianchuan, the college exam should have been completed a few days before.

Gu Yunxi thought about it and felt that the possibility of changing the timetable for the college examination was very small.

"Second uncle, don't worry too much. Maybe Yunhong is waiting for the interview in Fucheng to release the results."

She comforted Uncle Gu with a few words: "Those students who went to take the exam also took advantage of waiting for the results to be released and had some fun in Fucheng. They will come back after the results are released."

Second Uncle Gu, however, was thinking that his son was usually a sensible person. If he was really waiting in Fucheng for the results to be released, why didn't he know how to send the news back to say he was safe?

Gu Yunxi originally wanted to ask his second uncle to help and talk to Mrs. Gu and ask her to take Yunle over.

Seeing that her second uncle was like this, it was hard to explain her purpose, so she chatted with her second uncle for a while and saw that it was getting late, so she planned to go home.

"Second Uncle, if Yunhong writes a letter, please have someone deliver a message to me." Gu Yunxi stood at the door of the restaurant and said to Second Uncle Gu, who nodded.

After Gu Yunxi left the restaurant, he did not go home directly, but planned to go shopping and talk to Wang Jiaozhen.

However, when she walked to Shixiufang, she saw someone in the shop. Wang Jiaozhen was busy introducing embroidery products to customers.

Gu Yunxi thought that she would not be free for a while, so she simply went shopping by herself. In this era, she had never gone shopping by herself!

So, she walked aimlessly on the street, saw a bookstore, walked in, picked up a storybook, and was fascinated by what she saw.

Suddenly someone tapped her on the shoulder. She turned around and saw that the person tapping her looked familiar?

She thought about it carefully and realized that the man smiling at her was actually the classmate Chen Ziming who talked to Lu Jianchuan last time when he was selling braised pork offal in the market.

"Sister-in-law, I didn't expect to meet you here. Are you still literate?" Chen Ziming stared at Gu Yunxi and asked curiously.

This look was the same as the look he had given her before, which made Gu Yunxi always feel a little uncomfortable, and even felt that he was a little wretched.

"Well, I know some." Although Gu Yunxi felt disgusted in his heart, he didn't show it on his face and still answered politely.

However, she was not in the mood to continue reading the storybook.

So, she put down the storybook in her hand, prepared to leave, and went back to find Wang Jiaozhen.

Just as he was about to leave, Chen Ziming stepped forward and blocked the aisle.

"Sister-in-law, are you leaving so soon? Are you going to stop reading?" Chen Ziming still had a smile on his face, but there was still teasing in his eyes.

Gu Yunxi saw this and felt a little annoyed: "No, I still have something to do. Please give in, I'm going out."

"Which book does sister-in-law like? I'll give it to you." Chen Ziming remained indifferent and blocked the aisle, preventing Gu Yunxi from leaving.

"No, thank you." Gu Yunxi then realized that this Chen Ziming did it on purpose.

However, as a woman, judging from the current situation, it’s better not to conflict with him. If he doesn’t give way, then she should take a detour in another direction and leave.

He was about to turn around, but he didn't expect that Chen Ziming was so brave and dared to step forward and try to grab Gu Yunxi's hand.

That is to say, Gu Yunxi reacted quickly and jumped away immediately.

"What are you doing? Are you sick?" Gu Yunxi was completely annoyed.

This man is simply sick, and I am not familiar with him. In fact, I am even the wife of his classmate!

Why is he so speechless and frivolous? He doesn't look like a scholar at all. It really ruins the reputation of scholars.

Seeing Gu Yunxi staring at him, Chen Ziming smiled even more exaggeratedly and said, "Sister-in-law, I wanted to give you a book out of kindness."

After saying that, he raised the book in his hand with an innocent look on his face.

This Chen Ziming clearly has no good intentions, and he is so good at pretending to look like a white lotus to her!

This man is not simple!

Gu Yunxi paid more attention to it and said, "I told you I don't need it. Besides, my husband will buy it for me if I want any book."

Hearing this, Chen Ziming still smiled on his face and was not angry. Instead, he cupped his hands towards Gu Yunxi and said, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry. It was Ziming who was abrupt."

What? How did Chen Ziming do it, change his face so quickly? Gu Yunxi's eyes widened in disbelief.

Just now, Chen Ziming looked dissolute and frivolous, but now he would actually apologize to himself? What does he want to do?

However, after Chen Ziming apologized, he immediately got out of the way. Gu Yunxi didn't have time to think too much. He just wanted to leave here quickly and stay away from Chen Ziming.

However, just when she was happy to finally leave, she didn't know that Chen Ziming, who had been standing in the bookstore, was staring at the back of her leaving, and the teasing at the corner of his mouth became even more intense.
