Chapter 718
Dopey Gu had said that something had happened to her brother, sister-in-law, and sanniu, so she had to stay here forever.
Therefore, he had to change his way of thinking.
She couldn’t change this world, so she could only adapt to it.
The laws in this world were not as perfect as those in the modern world. Therefore, many things could not be guaranteed. They needed to use some very powerful means.
Sometimes, it wasn’t over with just a beating.
Yes, that’s right, it had to be like this.
......
The next morning, Gu Nian woke up to prepare some dry food, pancakes, salted eggs, and a few bamboo tubes of water for Gu Xin and the rest.
Gu Nian wondered if she should get something to keep the house warm one day. That way, she would not need to use a fire to boil water when she went out. She could just bring hot water with her.
She had included this in her plan for this year.
Gu Hui and Gu Xin carried their small bags, each carrying a hundred taels of silver notes and some silver pieces. They took their travel passes and followed Lu Zheng and Meng Meng out of the door.
Meng Meng’s eyes were bloodshot. This kid did not sleep the entire night. Huo Junhao was afraid that something would happen to him, so he stayed out to accompany him for the whole night. Huo Junhao wanted to go to Yuzhou with him, but he really wanted to sleep. He could not sleep in the carriage, so he could only sleep in Lu Zheng’s house.
Lu Zheng, Gu Hui, and Gu Xin were driving the carriage outside. Meng Meng stayed in the carriage, staring at Xie Nanfeng who was hopping around.
Gu Xin looked inside from time to time, worried about Meng Meng.
The seventh time she peeked inside, Gu Hui grabbed her by the back of her collar and pulled her back. “He’s a man, he knows what he should do.”
Gu Xin sighed. Such hurtful love!”
Lu Zheng and Gu Hui looked at her, speechless.
Gu Xin looked to the left and then to the right, ” “Sister Huihui, brother Yuanyuan, don’t you think so? In the past, for the sake of that xie jiao Niang, my father, who was a good student, became like this. However, he finally understood and knew how good his mother was. Look at how big brother Meng has become because of Jiang Yao. I’m really afraid that he’ll become like my father one day. Big brother Meng is such a good guy! I even heard that the aunts in the village wanted to matchmake him.”
Gu Hui’s mouth twitched,’aren’t you with us every day? When did you go to the village to listen to gossip?”
Gu Xin scratched her head in embarrassment,’my sister said to strike a balance between work and rest! I’ll go out to the village with sisi! I heard aunt cuihua say it! They said that brother Meng is a good guy, and if you want to matchmake him, you should just say San ya!”
“Then what else did you hear?” Gu Hui laughed.
Gu Xin turned to look at Lu Zheng and smiled, ” “There are more people in the village who want to propose marriage to brother Yuanyuan! But I helped brother Yuan Yuan reject it!”
Lu Zheng was stunned.
Gu Hui also looked at Lu Zheng in surprise. This kid couldn’t be so black-hearted, right? how old was Xinxin? did he tell Xinxin some nonsense?
Gu Xin continued, ” I told those aunties that brother Yuanyuan already has someone in her heart. I told them not to keep thinking about her. Brother Yuanyuan’s sweetheart. Brother Yuanyuan really likes her. Brother Yuanyuan was going to be a general in the future. Once he became a general, he would marry that young lady. Right, brother Yuanyuan?”
Gu Hui looked at Lu Zheng with a half-smile. “You have someone in your heart?”
“Yingluo,” Lu Zheng replied.
Gu Hui said,’hehe, tell me, what’s it like? Describe it!”
Lu Zheng pouted and glanced at Gu Xin.
brother Yuanyuan, tell sister Huihui about it. She’s better at hiding her words than I am! Gu Xin giggled.
Lu Zheng replied,”Yingluo is very pretty.” Her eyebrows were like willow leaves, and her eyes were almond-shaped. Her eyes were very bright, and when she smiled, they looked like crescent moons. Her nose was round, her mouth was small, and when she smiled, she had two dimples. White skin, black hair, young age, he should be able to grow taller!”
Gu Hui glanced at Gu Xin. This was based on the description of others!
Gu Xin was still giggling,’I almost thought brother Yuanyuan was talking about me! I also have two dimples, and uncle said I’ll grow taller.”
