After making the list, Sister-in-law Gu had too many things to do.

The first thing I need to do is apply for a transfer at my workplace tomorrow, and I also need to hand over some work.

Fortunately, Sister-in-law Gu's job is not complicated, and the handover can be completed in two or three days.

Now, the most troublesome one is Gu Xuanyi; he doesn't want to leave.

Sister-in-law Gu was aware of her family's situation; her parents were old and retired. Her brothers were married with many children, and they didn't have the energy to help her take care of Xuanyi.

She was hesitant to ask Bonnie to help take care of Xuanyi, especially since Xuanyi was already in the first year of junior high school and would have many things to do later, such as the high school entrance exam and the college entrance exam.

"Why aren't you asleep yet?"

After returning from the retirement home, Gu Ze gave a few brief instructions and left; he had a lot of work to do.

"I have something to discuss with you. This afternoon, Xuanyi found out we were moving, and he said he didn't want to go with us and wanted to stay in Beijing."

"If he doesn't leave, where will he stay?"

Gu Ze hadn't really thought about this problem. Xuan Yu was in college and would spend most of his time at school.

I only come back occasionally on weekends, either to stay overnight at Gu Ye's house or to my maternal grandmother's house.

However, Gu Xuanyi is only in the first year of junior high school, and he still has more than three years before he goes to university.

"Xuanyi thinks we might not stay in one place for long, and that constant relocation would affect our studies."

In particular, if I go to the south, will the things I learn be different?

Gu Ze also fell into deep thought. This trip would last at least three to five years, and he couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't be transferred to another place.

Xuanyi is in the first year of junior high school, and the college entrance examination will be just around the corner. If he keeps switching schools, it will affect his studies.

“The child has raised a question, but if he doesn’t leave, where will he live? He can’t live by himself, that’s not very realistic.”

“He said he was going to his second uncle’s house to be with Liu Jiu San Qi. I was just a little embarrassed to tell Bonnie that taking care of a teenager isn’t that simple.”

Gu Ze hadn't expected Xuan Yi to want to go to Gu Ye's place. Wasn't he afraid that Liu Jiu would drag him to do morning exercises?

"I hadn't thought of that. I'll ask Gu Ye tomorrow and see if they'll take it on."

"Why ask Gu Ye? You should ask Bao Ni. Gu Ye is so busy with work all day, but it's still Bao Ni who does the work."

Sister-in-law Gu rolled her eyes at her husband. What was he thinking?

"Yes, yes, we should ask Bonnie. Let's see if I can come back on time after get off work tomorrow. If not, you can take Xuan Yi to ask her. If that works, Xuan Yi will give up."

That's all we can do for now. Let's talk about it tomorrow; it's too late.

The sun was shining brightly, and the weather was nice.

Bonnie finished getting ready and went to work right on time.

Recently, Bonnie has been working on a novel. She plans to try writing it and put her previous ideas into action. Otherwise, an idea is just an idea; whether it works or not depends on trying.

Bonnie is doing well at work and has good relationships with her colleagues, except for Orchid.

Bonnie was fine, but Gu Xuanyi came to find Liu Jiu during the break between classes.

"Gu Yun Chu, someone is looking for you outside."

Liu Jiu's deskmate came in from outside and called out to him.

"Thanks!"

Liu Jiu left the classroom and saw Gu Xuanyi.

"Is someone bullying you?"

"No, no one bullied me."

Gu Xuanyi was still very touched. His sister was so kind, always worried that he would be bullied.

"Then why did you contact me?"

"Sixty-nine, I..."

"Call me Gu Yunchu." Liu Jiu quickly interrupted Gu Xuanyi. "We're at school. What's with calling me Liu Jiu? You have no sense of propriety."

"Okay, okay, Gu Yun Chu, Gu Yun Chu. I need to talk to you about something. Let's go over there."

Gu Xuanyi dared not be presumptuous in front of Liu Jiu; his martial arts skills were insufficient, and he was completely overwhelmed.

"Speak up, what is it? Stop beating around the bush."

"That's right, my dad is being transferred, and I don't want to go with them."

Before Gu Xuanyi could finish speaking, Liu Jiu interrupted him, "What do you mean you don't want to go? You want to live by yourself? Didn't they say your house was being taken back?"

Liu Jiu remembered that the house she lived in did not belong to her family; it belonged to the military.

"How could I possibly live alone? My parents would definitely not agree. I want to stay at your place; wouldn't it be great if we could be together every day?"

Liu Jiu glanced at Gu Xuanyi, thinking, "This must have been planned a long time ago."

"You're quite resourceful. Did my uncle and aunt agree?"

"My parents aren't the main issue. The main issue is whether my second aunt will accept me. Can you help me analyze this?"

Liu Jiu felt that her parents weren't the main point; San Qi was the key.

"Don't you need to get Sanqi's consent? If you stay at my house, you can only share a room with Sanqi. The key is whether he will accept you."

"Oh dear, I forgot about Panax notoginseng."

Gu Xuanyi had truly forgotten about Sanqi, mainly because he was too young, so he naturally overlooked him. He also forgot that his uncle's family was quite democratic, and everyone in the family had a say in matters.

Especially in his case, the three-seven method is key!

"You should try to get Sanqi to take you in. My parents are basically not a problem."

In my home, you'll need to learn to cook, do laundry, tidy your room and kitchen, and even do morning exercises. Think it over carefully, or you'll end up crying; my parents won't indulge you."

We need to give them a heads-up beforehand; this is no joke.

"Ringling..."

The school bell rang, and the two hurried back to their respective classrooms.

In the evening, after dinner, Brother Gu and Sister-in-law Gu took Gu Xuanyi to Gu Ye's house.

"Big brother, sister-in-law?"

Bonnie opened the door and was quite surprised to see Brother Gu and his wife outside. Why were they coming together at this hour? Had something happened?
