The rain stopped the next day, but the ground was still damp.
Gu Xin got up early, dressed, and ran to Gu Nian's room.
"Sister, hurry, braid my hair, I want to practice martial arts with Dad!" Gu Xin ran to Gu Nian's bedside and called out.
Gu Nian didn't have the habit of sleeping in late, so she got up and combed Gu Xin's straw-like hair, then tied it into a bun.
"Hey? Xin Xin, I think your hair looks smoother and thicker than before." Gu Nian could feel it while combing her hair; there were many newly sprouted hairs in Gu Xin's hair, which were quite prickly to the touch.
"Really? Does that mean my hair will soon be as black, long, and beautiful as my sister's?" Gu Xinxin exclaimed happily.
"Of course! We're sisters, I have lots of hair, so you have to have lots of hair too. Wait for me, I'll get my hair styled the same way as yours, and then we'll practice martial arts together!" Gu Nian pinched Gu Xin's cheek and laughed.
Huh? Why does my face look a bit fleshy instead of skinny like before?
"Does 'same hairstyle' mean you want to tie your hair in a bun like me, sister?" Gu Xin asked.
“Yes!” Gu Nian said, combing her hair while looking at Gu Xin.
Xin Xin's face has become fuller, and her skin isn't as dark anymore. She doesn't look as thin as when she first arrived.
Have you gotten used to it?
I think so, otherwise, it would be impossible for things to change so much in just over ten days!
But when I was combing Xinxin's hair just now, the new hair I felt in my hands was real.
I guess it's because we've been making sure Xinxin gets enough nutrition lately; kids naturally grow pretty fast.
Gu Nian didn't think much of it.
The two sisters left the house.
In the kitchen, Gu Shouxin and Cai Xiaolian had already woken up, and Gu Shouxin was tending the fire.
One pot is used to cook breakfast, and another pot is used to boil water.
"You're up! Come and wash up!" Cai Xiaolian had just finished washing up when she saw the two sisters with the same hairstyle, and her face lit up with a big smile.
She didn't have a daughter in her previous life. Although she transmigrated to this ancient world where she was extremely uncomfortable in many ways, she suddenly had two daughters, and she felt like she had made a profit.
Gu Nian took a willow twig, dipped it in salt, closed her eyes, and resignedly put it in her mouth.
Getting a toothbrush and toothpaste ready isn't about making money; it's about making things convenient for yourself first.
"Niannian, do you find these willow twigs and salt uncomfortable to use?" At this moment, Cai Xiaolian appeared beside Gu Nian.
"Is it uncomfortable for you, Mother?" Gu Xin asked, turning her head after rinsing her mouth.
"I saw your sister with her eyes closed, looking uncomfortable. I thought she was feeling unwell!" Cai Xiaolian said with a smile.
"Sister, is it hard to chew these willow twigs?" Gu Xin looked over and saw that her sister was indeed feeling unwell.
"Yes, Mom, Xin Xin, I'm planning to stay home for a while. I'm going to make a teeth cleaning tool that's better than willow branches and a cleaning material that's better than salt!" Gu Nian said solemnly.
"Great! Mom supports you! Go for it, Niannian!" Cai Xiaolian had a look on her face that said, "I've been waiting for you to say that."
"Sister, you're amazing! Do you need any help? I can run errands for you," Gu Xin said.
"Okay! It's settled then." Gu Nian thought about the composition of toothpaste in her mind. It certainly wouldn't be complete here. It would have the most basic fragrance, detergent, abrasive, and surfactant. Where did these come from?
