After Xiao Fubao's life was stolen, he became the favorite of everyone in the capital

Chapter 451 Win over
Niuniu was young, and didn't have as many mixed thoughts as Zhang Yunniang. The little girl directly grabbed Xie Xingchuan's sleeve and said, "Second brother, aren't you a member of our family? Why don't you stay at home? We are all looking forward to celebrating the New Year with you."

Although Xie Xingchuan was happy to recognize his relatives, he could not easily erase the more than ten years of nurturing grace of the Xie family: "My dear, I will come to see you tomorrow."

This time, almost the entire Gu family sent him out together.

Seeing such a big scene, even Nanny Xie, who came to pick people up, was shocked.

"What do you want to eat tomorrow morning? Mom will make it for you!" Zhang Yunniang asked.

Xie Xingchuan didn't really want to eat anything in particular, but seeing Zhang Yuniang's eager look, he could only say, "Chicken noodle soup is great."

Zhang Yunniang was afraid that he would not ask for it, so she nodded and said, "I'll kill a chicken in a minute. Let's simmer the chicken soup overnight. It will definitely be tasty."

Xie Xingchuan couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth. He really liked the feeling of being cared about by others.

"Brother, I will get up very early tomorrow and wait for you at the door!" Niu Niu said with a smile.

Xie Xingchuan reached out and touched the little girl's soft hair, and said, "Forget it. You should sleep a little longer. Maybe you will see me waiting for you when you wake up in the morning."

Niuniu waved her little fists and said very seriously: "I will definitely be able to get up. I want to take my brother home!"

Xie Xingchuan's heart softened.

Aunt Xie was watching the affectionate appearance of the whole family and her heart skipped a beat. She felt that things seemed to be out of control.

"Young Master, it's getting late. Madam is still waiting for you at home." Nanny Xie urged.

Xie Xingchuan turned around, looked at the family members he had just recognized with reluctance, and waved at them.

The Xie family's carriage disappeared at the end of the road. Niuniu turned around with a look of disappointment on her face and said, "If Brother Xie is not at home, I may not be able to sleep well at night."

"My brother has been found, so what's not to like?" Gu Zhao asked back.

Niuniu shook her head and said, "This is different. A family should stay together."

Zhang Yunniang felt bitter when she heard her daughter's words, but she suppressed it and kept comforting herself that finding the person back was more important than anything else.

Gu Zhao, on the other hand, had already turned around and looked at Zhang Yuniang with sparkling eyes, and said, "Mom, since my second brother can order food, I want to order food too. Can you ask Sister Shuying to make me a bowl of dumpling soup tomorrow morning?"

The crazy girl knows a lot of dishes, and she has only cooked many of them once or twice. Gu Zhao likes the dumpling soup she makes very much.

Zhang Yunniang did not refuse, but said: "I will ask her later. If she is unwilling, then forget it."

Gu Zhao nodded vigorously.

Zhang Yunniang then asked her other two children, "Is there anything you two would like to eat?"

The Gu family has always been like this. Even though Xie Xingchuan was a newly found child, they favored him and would not ignore other children.

Gu Yan shook his head: "I'm not picky about food. I'll eat whatever is in the kitchen. You don't have to make it specially for me."

Niuniu was not polite and said, "I want to eat fried glutinous rice cakes!"

"Okay." Zhang Yunniang agreed gently. In the carriage, Aunt Xie looked at Xie Xingchuan. Although he didn't smile, she felt that the gloom in his body seemed to have dissipated completely, and he seemed to be immersed in inexplicable joy.

"Master, did you have a lot of fun at the Gu family today?" Nanny Xie asked cautiously.

She didn't expect Xie Xingchuan to answer.

But Xie Xingchuan was in a really good mood at the moment. He smiled and said, "The Gu family is very nice. I like them very much."

Nanny Xie's heart sank, but when she asked more questions, Xie Xingchuan refused to speak again.

The carriage entered the Xie Mansion. Just like yesterday, the first thing Xie Xingchuan did after returning home was to pay his respects to Madam Xie.

Mrs. Xie still didn't see him.

Xie Xingchuan didn't seem to be surprised by this at all. After pretending to do so, he turned and left.

But Madam Xie was Madam Xie's confidant and had served Madam Xie for so many years. She was more anxious than anyone else at this moment:
"Madam, you didn't see the situation at the Gu family today. A group of people came out to surround the young master. If you didn't know, you would think they were a family. The young master called Mr. Gu and Madam Gu "father and mother" all the time. The Gu family treated him well, and even asked him what he wanted to eat tomorrow morning and planned to make it for him."

When Madam Xie heard this, she frowned slightly and said, "The Gu family is really cunning. They know that this little bastard is about to have a bright future, so they try every means to win him over."

Madam Xie hurriedly said, "Madam, please be a little nicer to the young master. The Gu family is not very tactful in their actions. You can't really let them succeed, right?"

Madam Xie had a gloomy face and said, "Go to Zhigeyuan and put this kid under house arrest for ten days."

Aunt Xie was immediately overwhelmed: "Madam, the Gu family has tried their best to please him, why are you punishing him? Isn't this pushing them further away?"

Mrs. Xie was not used to being upset with her son, so she said, "Am I not good to him? Didn't I let him drink old duck soup yesterday?"

"A little bastard is a little bastard. He is born with ulterior motives. If he dares to be unfilial to me in the future, I will go to the government office and report him for disobedience. Let's see how he can be an official!" Mrs. Xie obviously had her own ideas.

Madam Xie was speechless for a moment, and said, "Do you really want to do this to the extreme? This will not benefit you or Miss Xue Rou at all! I know you are thinking about Master Cheng Bao, but the situation is not favorable now!"

Mrs. Xie said helplessly, "Okay, let the kitchen stew a pot of chicken soup and send it to him later."

Madam Xie agreed and asked, "Madam, the young master is not young anymore, shouldn't we prepare a few maids to serve him?"

Madam Xie frowned again: "It's already a blessing for him to marry Xue Rou in his previous life. Why does he have to prepare a maid for him?"

Mrs. Xie felt that Xie Xingchuan was not worthy, and she felt annoyed just talking about it.

"The young master is old and it's inevitable that he will be impulsive sometimes. What if the Gu family has prepared someone for him? The first girl is always special to a man. What if he encourages them and feels that the Gu family is better?" Nanny Xie advised.

Mrs. Xie was thinking more at this time. When she married into the Xie family, her husband already had a maid by his side.

This man had caused her a lot of trouble back then. If it hadn't resulted in two deaths during childbirth, she would probably not have had the good life she has today.

It was also because of this girl that General Xie became suspicious of her. He later took a concubine, who stayed away from him and was never brought back to the capital.
