Chapter 297 Patriarch Gu's Perfunctory
"What's wrong with Xin'er?" The head of the Gu family forced a smile on his face and looked at Gu Xin.
"Grandpa, don't you all like me anymore?" Gu Xin looked at the head of the Gu family with tears in her eyes.
Patriarch Gu:...
When I was little, I really liked her because she was very cute. But after I found out that she had evil intentions, I no longer like her.
"Why do you say that?" The head of the Gu family looked at Gu Xin.
"I just heard a disciple say that you took Li'er to the Warcraft Field, why didn't you take Xin'er with you?" Gu Xin looked at the head of the Gu family with a face full of grievance.
Patriarch Gu:...
I took Li'er to the animal training ground because Li'er knew how to train animals.
Even if Li'er doesn't know how to tame beasts, as she is his own granddaughter, he will take her to choose the magical beast she likes.
What to take Gu Xin to do?
Go over there and cry?
“Xin’er, you also saw it at the introduction party. Li’er is a Divine Emperor-level beast tamer. Taking her to the Warcraft Arena is naturally to do some work.” Patriarch Gu said in a flat tone.
"Grandpa, my fighting ability has never been strong. Can you let Lier help me tame a divine beast?" Gu Xin said coquettishly to the head of the Gu family.
Patriarch Gu:...
With your low talent and lazy nature, it's impossible for you to have strong combat power.
"Xin'er, I won't force Li'er to do anything she doesn't want to do." Patriarch Gu's tone turned cold.
"Grandpa, she tames the beast so quickly and it doesn't take her much time." Gu Xin blocked her mouth.
"Xin'er, just wait patiently. The Su family has agreed that the betrothal gift to you in the future will be a tamed divine beast." The head of the Gu family said perfunctorily.
However, the divine beast was indeed a promise made by the Su family to show their importance to Gu Xin.
"Grandpa, it's still several years before I get married, and I want it now." A gleam of light flashed across Gu Xin's eyes.
Who would complain about having too many mythical beasts?
Besides, now that he had obtained the divine beast, he was considered the best among his peers.
After all, even if you are in a top family, there are not many people who can contract a divine beast at your age.
Just imagine how majestic it would be if you could summon a divine beast at will.
"Nonsense! With your mental power, you can only contract one divine beast at most. Now that you have made the contract, what will you do with the divine beast that the Su family gave you in the future? Are you going to bring it back to the Su family and give it to someone else?" The head of the Gu family turned serious.
"No." Gu Xin shook her head.
"Xin'er, the Su family will use a tamed divine beast as a betrothal gift. This is completely a guarantee that our ancestors have fought for you. It will also be the confidence for you to marry into the Su family in the future. If you cannot sign the contract at that time, then not to mention the confidence, you will be looked down upon even if you marry into the family." The head of the Gu family continued.
Upon hearing this, Gu Xin bit her lip hard, blaming herself for being too mentally weak.
Otherwise, who can’t contract a few magical beasts now?
It’s just that others can make a contract without a monster, but I have a monster and its mental strength doesn’t allow it!
In fact, Gu Xin was wrong!
The mental strength is too weak. This is just an excuse made by the head of the Gu family.
If Gu Xin's mental strength allowed, the head of the Gu family would definitely have another excuse to reject her.
Anyway, it’s impossible to give it to a divine beast.
"Grandpa, when I marry into the Su family in the future, besides the divine beast that will be my confidence, beauty is equally important. Grandpa. Can you help me ask Li'er for a beauty pill?" Gu Xin continued to make requests regardless of the indifferent expression of the head of the Gu family.
"No, do you know where Li'er's beauty pills come from?" The head of the Gu family refused without thinking.
"From her master, Venerable Gu Cang." Gu Xin replied.
"Do you think that Venerable Gu Cang's things are so easy to take? If he misunderstands that our Gu family is stealing his apprentice's things, what do you think the consequences will be?" The head of the Gu family deliberately lowered his voice.
Gu Xin shuddered when she heard that!
At this moment, she was extremely angry because she couldn't get the two things she wanted!
"Xin'er, it's getting late. You should go back and rest." Seeing Gu Xin still standing there, the head of the Gu family said to her.
"Yes, grandpa, I will come to accompany you another day." Gu Xin said and turned and left.
Seeing Gu Xin leave, the head of the Gu family's eyes turned cold.
If it wasn't for the purpose of keeping her to deal with the Su family and his own ancestors, why would he bother to go to so much trouble to deal with her.
However, when he thought about how outstanding his own Li'er was, Patriarch Gu felt that all this was nothing.
……
After Yan Li returned to Sigui Pavilion, Xier brought up a large table of delicious food.
Seeing this, Yan Li suddenly missed Chuntao from Prince Zhan's Mansion.
Chuntao noodles are the most delicious.
"Miss, Miss." Seeing Yan Li in a daze, Xier called her twice.
"Xier, did you do all this?" Yan Li came back to her senses and looked at Xier.
"Yes, miss. Today the head of the family ordered people to come and clean up the small kitchen of our Sigui Pavilion, and also sent a lot of ingredients over. In the future, Xier can cook all kinds of delicious food for you." Xier's eyes were full of excitement.
"Xier, do you like cooking?" Yan Li looked at her curiously.
"Miss, my family runs a restaurant, so my cooking skills are pretty good. I was chosen to join the Gu family because of my cooking skills." Xier said with a blushing face.
"That's great, Xier. From now on, you will take care of my belly." Yan Li said, patting her belly.
"Don't worry, miss. As long as there are ingredients, Xier will never let you go hungry." Xier nodded happily.
"Then let me try your cooking." Yan Li said as she picked up the chopsticks and started eating.
Xier on the side looked at Yan Li nervously.
"It's delicious, Xier. My stomach will be blessed from now on." Yan Li took a bite and praised.
Xier, who was standing by, smiled happily upon hearing that.
I was chosen to join the Gu family because of my cooking skills. I originally thought that top families must have more scarce ingredients for me to study various delicacies.
Who would have thought that only after entering the Gu family would one realize that it is a top family with a wealth of talented people.
I can't even get close to a big kitchen, let alone have all kinds of top-quality ingredients to research delicious food.
In addition, she did not have a high talent for cultivation, and eventually became a maid.
I didn't expect that meeting Miss would give me the opportunity to continue studying my favorite cooking skills.
Thinking of this, Xier's face was filled with excitement and gratitude.
Yan Li ate until her belly was full, and she did not forget to praise Xier, which made Xier very happy.
The next day.
Yan Li suddenly thought of Yao Buxing, whom she had left alone for two days, so she prepared to take Xier to see him.
Who would have thought that as soon as she walked out of her room, she saw that her Sigui Pavilion was guarded by several more people.
"Miss." When Yan Li walked over, the guards saluted very respectfully.
"What are you doing?" Yan Li looked at them in confusion.
"Miss, my name is Shen Han. From today on, I will be the chief guard of Sigui Pavilion. We are sent by the head of the family to protect you." The chief guard Shen Han replied.
