So, when the four members of the Gu family gathered at home, lighting an oil lamp and talking about what had happened that day, Gu Xin's little expression and her little arms and legs seemed to be twitching the whole time.
Gu Nian burst into laughter.
Gu Shouxin and Cai Xiaolian glared at Gu Nian, their eyes full of condemnation.
"Dad, Mom, please don't look at me like that, I'm scared!" Gu Nian stopped smiling and explained with a wronged expression, "I just wanted Xin Xin to remember it, I didn't let her learn it, really. I had her describe it."
"Yes, yes, that's right, Mom and Dad, please don't scold my sister. It's all my fault for being so stupid, I didn't know what words to use. I will definitely study hard in the future, and I will learn more language from books every day!" Gu Xin nodded, speaking up for Gu Nian.
“Yes, yes, Dad, Mom, I’ve compiled what I learned when I was little so that Xinxin can learn from it. It will help develop Xinxin’s brain, make her smarter, and help her learn things faster. Didn’t Grandpa and Grandma say that Xinxin likes math? I’ll make her a Sudoku puzzle and some simple arithmetic problems first! Mom, you know Sudoku, right?” Gu Nian quickly said.
"Oh, now that you mention it, I forgot. You have ready-made teaching materials for children here! Your father is preparing for the imperial examinations, but our Xinxin doesn't need to take them. It's good for her to learn from you." Cai Xiaolian thought it was a good idea.
“Yes. I observe the celestial phenomena, and tomorrow's weather will be similar to today's. Tomorrow morning, you sisters should study at home and then prepare lunch. Your eldest uncle and fourth uncle will come over to help plant potatoes in the fields.” Gu Shouxin nodded and said.
"Dad, we found something good at the little pond in the mountains today. My sister said we can use it to make hand soap and mouthwash!" Gu Xin quickly said, remembering that there was something else she hadn't mentioned earlier.
"Yes, yes, Dad, you can't let Fourth Uncle go farming tomorrow. Fourth Uncle has to install a door for our house, and he also has to set up my lab for me! If this is successful, we can mass-produce it; it's a money-making machine!" Gu Nian nodded.
"What did you look for?" Cai Xiaolian asked.
"Populus heterophylla can be used to extract alkali, so we won't need wood ash anymore. And mint can be used as a fragrance to add to toothpaste. This poplar heterophylla is..." Gu Nian rattled off a whole bunch of things.
Cai Xiaolian, who had also traveled from the modern era, couldn't understand what she was saying either.
"Okay, you can handle it as you see fit! Once the potatoes are planted, I'll find some time to go and buy all the land around here from the village head, rebuild a house, and move into the new house before the New Year. That way, it'll be easier for you to do things." Gu Shouxin didn't understand, so he could only let Gu Nian do it herself and create a good environment for her.
"Are you going to build a new house?" Gu Xin's eyes lit up.
"Hmm, does Xinxin like the new house?" Gu Shouxin asked.
"I love it! Dad, does that mean I can have my own desk now?" Gu Xin nodded vigorously.
"Of course, your sister said she'll decorate Xin Xin's room beautifully, making it the room of the prettiest girl in our village!" Gu Shouxin said, smiling as he looked at Gu Nian.
Gu Nian: "..."
You always consult with your cheap wife when it comes to repairing the house, but never with me, your cheap daughter. Now that you want to decorate a beautiful room for your other cheap daughter, you think of me, your cheap daughter?
snort!
What a biased father!
So what if I've heard your eerie eunuch voice before?
That's outrageous!
