From Yufu's perspective, the man's naked back can only be seen through the gap in the screen.
With broad shoulders and narrow waist, it is in the shape of a crane and mantis, and its back is as straight as a pine and cypress.
Like a work of art carefully crafted by the creator, every inch of muscle is just right, making people want to see the vigorous power contained under the honey-colored skin.
The arms that scoop up water at will have slightly undulating lines, with the fortitude of a martial arts practitioner.
The water flowed down the line of his back quickly, splashing fine drops of water.
Yu Fu couldn't help but stare blankly.
Until the person behind the screen noticed the stranger's breath, there was an uproar of water in an instant, and the water drops passed through the gap in the screen, directly hitting Yufu's face!
Yu Fu stretched out his hand to touch her face, only to feel that the water droplets splashed on her face had a man's unique aura.
And the person behind the screen has spread his arms quickly, put on a plain white coat, and walked out from behind the screen.
After seeing his face clearly, Yu Fu was so dazed that she even forgot to wipe off the water on his face.
There are such handsome men in this world!
The man in front of him is tall and slender, his eyebrows are like ink painting, undyed but black.
A pair of bright starry eyes, with a slight smile, looked at her warmly like a spring breeze.
With a straight nose, pink lips lightly pursed into a line, and a slightly lowered head, it's like a god's mansion descending into the world.
"You are... Xiao Yufu?"
His voice is gentle and deep, full of magnetism, like a piece of the best silk in the south of the Yangtze River, and the tentacle makes people never forget it.
Yu Fu slightly parted his lips in surprise, just stared at him, and even forgot to answer.
After a while, she nodded in a daze.
"I am... are you, big brother?"
If Gu Huaijiang wanted to recognize Yufu as his adopted daughter, she would naturally be his younger sister, so it would not be wrong to call her a big brother.
Gu Shubai nodded with a smile, and there was a doting light in Langruoxingchen's eyes.
Yufu was smaller than he imagined.
I thought that a twelve-year-old girl should be taller and stronger.
But the little Yufu's limbs are slender, and the white wrist exposed outside the pink satin and flower-woven spring dress is not as thick as the newly sprouted willow in early spring.
She stood in front of her, her little head only reaching his waist.
"Big brother!"
Yu Fu threw herself into his arms with a smile, gave him a firm hug, and refused to let go for a long time.
Gu Shubai was slightly taken aback.
This kid... is really lively.
But being hugged by her limp body was like hugging a cloud, and one couldn't bear to push it away.
As soon as the boy who fetched hot water walked in, he saw Yufu spreading his hands and feet and hugging the tall and tall Gu Shubai, his appearance was very amusing.
He couldn't help smiling, and then quickly saluted Gu Shubai.
"Eldest son, it's all slaves who didn't notice, and let Miss Yufu come here by mistake!"
"It's okay."
Only then did Yu Fu let go of his hands and feet, and wiped the corners of his mouth again, for fear of drooling.
It's okay, okay, no drooling, her first impression in front of her big brother should be good!
Gu Shubai smiled and wiped her cheek.
"Can't you feel the water splashed on your face?"
His hanging plain white sleeves were stained with water, Yu Fu looked at it, and his little face turned red...
Not long after, Gu Jiuge and others also heard the news, and they all came to the upper room to see Gu Shubai.
He distributed the soil rites brought back from Jinling to everyone, and everyone's gifts were different, and everyone was satisfied.
For example, Gu Jiuge likes to drink, so what he gave was a jar of Jinling wine.
Gu Hanmo loves swords, and what he gave was Jinling Yunjin's sword sheath.
Everyone thanked them one after another, Gu Shubai turned around, took another long box, and handed it to Yufu.
Yu Fu raised his head with experience, looked at him with wide eyes, blinking his eyelashes.
Little did she know that she had a share.
"When I was in Jinling, I received a letter from the Fuzhong, knowing that my father brought a little girl back. I thought that my daughter's family likes clothes and jewelry, so I brought you a few Jinling brocade weaving flowers."
He stretched out his hand to remove the copper clasp, and the box was opened in front of everyone. The brocade cloth inside was as bright and brilliant as the clouds in the sky.
Gu Xiang and Gu Yi exclaimed in amazement.
"Brother is so rich! This brocade in Jinling is known as 'an inch of brocade and an inch of gold', and a small piece is worth a lot. The elder brother actually gave you several pieces of jade. The sword sheath you gave to the third brother can't be discarded." How much fabric!"
Gu Huaijiang just came out of the inner room, and when he heard what Gu Yi said, he immediately snorted softly.
"We in the Marquis Gu's Mansion have always taught our sons strictly and treated our daughters favorably. What do you guys compare to a little girl like Yufu?"
As he spoke, he looked at Gu Shubai, "You did a good job. These brocades cost a lot, right? Butler Qi, go to the treasury to get the same amount of money and send it to the royal family."
Gu Shubai hurriedly stopped him with a smile.
"Father doesn't have to be like this, it has to be spent, and the child can afford it."
How could he get his father to reimburse him for the meeting gift he gave to his sister
Gu Jiuge interrupted with a smile.
"Father doesn't have to feel sorry for the money for the elder brother. The elder brother is the eldest son of Gu Hou's mansion anyway, and he can 'teach his son with strictness', he can afford the money."
Everyone chatted and laughed for a while, Yu Fu gently stroked the brocade in the box, and smiled softly and sweetly.
"Thank you big brother!"
Gu Jiuge raised his eyebrows sharply.
Second brother, third brother, fourth brother... Yufu has always been called that.
How did he become a big brother when he came to Gu Shubai's place
Everyone didn't pay attention to this detail, they sat down and listened to what Gu Shubai said about his trip to Jinling.
"... The birthday banquet of my great aunt was very lively. Not only the local officials in Jinling attended, but also many people from the imperial capital went to Jinling to celebrate her birthday."
Yu Fu had only heard about this eldest aunt from the mouths of the young masters, but she didn't know who it was, she tilted her head puzzledly, with a dazed expression on her face.
Seeing her expression, Gu Shubai explained with a smile: "This eldest aunt is my father's eldest sister, and she married into the Su family in Jinling. This year is her fiftieth birthday, and her father was born at the frontier battlefield, so I will take care of her." Go to celebrate birthday on your behalf."
Hearing his tone when he talked about this eldest aunt, he seemed to be very respectful. I think this eldest sister has a unique meaning to Gu Huaijiang.
Gu Yi couldn't help but sneered.
"The 'Miss Su' in my aunt's house, is her temper better now?"
