It was a magnificence he had never discovered before.

"I don't know." But what he did know was that Jiang Cuicui wasn't stupid; she knew what his actions meant.

If she's willing to do it, then he's happy to oblige her.

"Is it because that child reminds you of Pearl and Bao'er?"

The sudden question left Jiang Mingyi stunned again. He stared at the person walking straight ahead, and only after a long while did he catch up.

It turns out, his little scheme couldn't be kept secret after all.

Yes, he just saw that Jiang Cuicui finally had a chance to leave home, so he thought he could help her out if he could.

No matter what, she's my cousin.

He also thought that if one day Zhu'er and Bao'er needed help, Heaven would, in recognition of his good deeds, also lend a hand to the two girls.

As for the words Jiang Cuicui used to call him a little beggar or a child without a mother, he had long forgotten them.

Gu An'an stopped paying attention to the Lin blacksmith's family's affairs, and she didn't even care about how Jiang Ersao was making a fuss.

But she didn't expect that Jiang Ersao would come over in just two days, along with Jiang Dasao and Jiang Laotai.

The three women from the Jiang family's old residence all came over at once; it probably wasn't anything good.

As expected, Jiang Ersao spoke first, "Lin Sanxing, that brat Cui Cui insists on marrying him, and there's nothing I can do about it. But since she's getting married, we should at least get her some dowry or something. What are you, as her aunt, planning to provide for her?"

Gu An'an understood; they were here to ask for money.
