Chapter 187 The Sickly Beauty Has Strong Martial Arts Skills 9
Gu Xuanzhi's original name was Jian Xuanzhi. He had lived a happy life for several years before he was eight years old. His parents were not high-ranking officials and his family was not rich, but the family of three lived a happy and harmonious life.
But when he turned eight, everything changed.
My parents died at the hands of deliberately instigated evil people and were trampled to death.
Later, I was fostered in my aunt's house. My aunt's family did not live as well as my own family, and my uncle was fond of women and had countless concubines at home.
My aunt raised three children and had to take care of them and take care of all the household chores. She was busy every day and was also ostracized by the concubines, but her husband did nothing in the face of all this.
With the addition of Jian Xuanzhi, she was almost driven crazy. She urgently needed to vent her anger. She couldn't bear to hit her own children, so she hit the young Xuanzhi.
In the days that followed, Xiao Xuanzhi not only had to go hungry and suffer from cold, but also had to live under someone else's roof. He also suffered from hunger and abuse.
He lived like this for five years, until the Gu family chose an adopted son from the side branch. He knew that his chance had come.
Almost all the boys under fifteen from Gu's mother's side branches had come, all of them plump and white. Only thirteen-year-old Jian Xuanzhi looked dark and thin, with old scars on his body.
I still remember the situation at that time. A bunch of children gathered together and made a lot of noise, which made Gu's mother upset. Only Xuanzhi was quiet and didn't make any noise, as if he didn't fit in with the surroundings.
Although he is young, one can vaguely see that superior face. He will definitely be extraordinarily handsome when he grows up.
What the Gu family parents need is an obedient and sensible child. The other children obviously do not meet this standard, and only Xuanzhi is acceptable.
Neither of them noticed that a smile appeared on Xiao Xuanzhi's lips...
He left his aunt's house when he was ten years old. He knew that if he continued to stay there, he would not have a good life in the future.
After wandering around, he found his grandparents' home. Although his grandparents were old, they could still barely support the child.
Xuanzhi began to live with his grandparents. Having lost his parents, he was often bullied by children of the same age. At first, he endured it silently, but later he fought back hard.
How could a child who was so young and couldn't fight back when two or three other kids of the same age got into a fight with him be as well-behaved as he appeared?
In this way, Jian Xuanzhi, who pretended to be well-behaved, was selected and renamed Gu Xuanzhi.
Gu Xuanzhi knew that his life would change from then on.
He was not as naive as ordinary children. He just felt that his father, Gu, was the prime minister, but had no biological children of his own, so he chose to adopt a child from another race.
Anyone would find this action strange, and that’s what Gu Xuanzhi thought.
He even thought that Gu's father wanted to use him to gain benefits, but he didn't expect that Gu's parents had seriously cultivated him.
It turns out that Prime Minister Gu has his own biological child, and he still remembers the first time he saw that girl.
It was a winter day when he was led into the mansion by Gu's mother's hand. It was the first time he had seen such a magnificent mansion.
But what made his eyes widen even more was the little girl walking towards him.
The little girl in front of him was wearing a pink brocade cloak, with two cute buns on her head. She was covered in snow and looked at the strange brother in front of her.
While she was looking at Xuanzhi, Xuanzhi was naturally also looking at her. The little girl had red lips and white teeth, and her skin was as delicate as jade. Her eyes were full of spirit.
She thought the brother in front of her was handsome. The little girl smiled sincerely and warmly, showing her two small canine teeth. Her dimples were faintly visible, which was very endearing.
Jian Xuanzhi's heart suddenly skipped a beat. All things flourish and wither in your eyes. I am dazzled and lost in thought. But your bright smile makes all my fellow creatures miserable. (Not original.)
"Xuanzhi, this will be your home from now on." Mother Gu said kindly.
From now on, no matter how hard life gets, no matter how harsh the weather gets, I will always protect this little girl, he thought.
"Xi'er." Seeing her daughter's adorable appearance, Mother Gu also felt soft-hearted.
The little girl's sweet voice rang out, "Mother, this is the handsome brother you found for me."
"Yes, my brother's name is Gu Xuanzhi. How about letting him accompany you from now on?"
"Okay, Xier likes this handsome brother." Gu Xi stared at Gu Xuanzhi's face with sparkling eyes.
Mother Gu held her forehead, wondering where her daughter learned this behavior of being unable to walk when she saw a handsome face...
"Brother~" A soft voice sounded, and Gu Xi quietly held Gu Xuanzhi's hand.
"Sister...sister..." Gu Xuanzhi replied in an awkward voice.
The little girl opened her big watery eyes and smiled sweetly at Gu Xuanzhi.
Gu Xuanzhi was infected by the smile, and his usually serious face also smiled along with the girl.
Mother Gu was still very surprised...she thought the child could not laugh at all.
