Chapter 284
“My sister is only fifteen. She’s two years younger than me and two years older than you. How can she be considered a child? No, I also have to be considered a child!” Gu Nian, who was leaning on Cai Xiaolian’s other side, also acted coquettish.
“Hahahaha, yes, yes, yes. No matter how old you two are, in front of your father and me, you’re still children.” Cai Xiaolian smiled and hugged the two children. Gu shouxin’s lips also curved up as he drove the car.
The quiet and peaceful years were probably referring to such a scene!
......
Many people came to the county Magistrate with gifts during the new year. As business partners, the Gu family was invited in alone.
Cheng huaijin held his sister’s hand and ran over when he saw the Gu family.
“Sister niannian!” Cheng huaijin’s eyes were only filled with concern.
Cheng Huaiyu didn’t know how to speak, but she used her actions to express her feelings. She shook off her brother’s hand and went to hold Gu Xin’s.
“Xiao Yu, I haven’t seen you for half a month and I find you even more beautiful!” Gu Xin was shocked.
Cheng Huaiyu pointed at Gu Xin.
Gu Xin did not understand what she meant.
little sister Xinxin, ” Cheng huaijin explained, ” what my sister means is that you’re the same. You’ve become more beautiful!
“Oh, really?
She had said that she wanted to be the prettiest girl in the village. Look, her efforts were effective!
“Let’s go and pay a New Year’s visit to Lord Cheng and Mrs. Cheng. After that, you kids can play together!” Cai Xiaolian called out to everyone.
When she entered the hall, she saw a young lady sitting next to Mrs. Cheng. She looked one or two years older than Gu Nian.
As soon as the Gu family entered, the lady’s gaze fell on Gu Nian. Gu Nian felt a little uncomfortable as she felt that the lady’s gaze was like that of an object.
After exchanging pleasantries, Mrs. Cheng introduced the girl to the Gu family. She came from the capital and was the daughter of her older sister. She was not the legitimate sister that she had married in place of, but her step-sister who was also a concubine’s daughter.
Her Shu sister married well. She married an unknown general. Who knew that the general made great contributions in a battle after Emperor Wen ascended the throne and was conferred the title of general. He guarded the border and was highly regarded by Emperor Wen.
Her step-sister also rose with the tide, and even the remaining daughter was the daughter of a second-grade general.
Lord Cheng was also a County Magistrate in that direction. He was only transferred to Taoyuan County last year, so the relationship between the two families was close.
This lady’s surname was Yao, and her name was yunhua.
After the introduction, Madam Cheng said to Yao yunhua, ” Yun ‘er, they’re my guests. Can you help me entertain niannian and Xinxin and accompany them to the garden to play? ”
“Alright, Yimu.” Yao yunhua agreed.
Initially, Gu Nian wanted to sit down and listen to her father talk to master Cheng and Mrs. Cheng about not cooperating with them. However, since they had invited her, she could not reject them. When she saw that Yao yunhua looked as if she had something to say to her, Gu Nian got up and followed her out.
“Are you curious, miss Gu?” Once they arrived at the garden, Yao yunhua sent Cheng huaijin and the rest off to play nearby before turning to Gu Nian.
“What are you curious about?” Gu Nian was stunned as she asked.
“Curious as to why I did not see my older Biao brother? Could it be that miss Gu doesn’t want to see my cousin Rui?” Yao yunhua asked with a sneer.
Gu Nian frowned.’What is this?’ Also, what’s with this girl’s attitude?
It was so strange that it made people feel uncomfortable.
