Gu Si thought about it and realized it made sense. She frowned and asked, "Sister Xin Xin, do you mean she actually wanted to harm us?"
Gu Xin shook her head: "It's not necessarily because she wants to harm us. Anyway, let's be more careful in the future. As for Sister Huihui and my sister, I believe Li Shan wouldn't dare to approach them even if she had an ulterior motive. She just thinks we're too young and don't know anything. I felt like she was trying to trick me into talking, so I didn't say much to her. Sisi, you remember this too, just throw in some unimportant, ambiguous things. If she underestimates us, let her be caught off guard, hmph!"
Gu Si linked arms with Gu Xin and nodded, "Yes, Xin Xin, you're getting smarter and smarter. I'm so lucky to have three smart older sisters protecting me. I'll definitely listen to you from now on!"
Gu Xin smiled sheepishly: "I'm not that smart! I just listen to my parents and sisters chat a lot, and watch Dad play chess with Brother Yuanyuan and Brother Xue a lot, so I like to think a lot and observe people. Anyway, I just think Li Shan is a bit strange."
Gu Si shook her head in disagreement: "I also listened to Second Uncle, Second Aunt and Sister Niannian talking. I also watched Brother Yuan and Second Brother Xue playing chess with Second Uncle. I didn't see anything strange about Li Shan. So, Sister Xinxin, you are smarter."
Gu Xin laughed: "Alright then, I'll continue to be smart and protect Sisi from now on!"
Gu Si leaned her head on Gu Xin's shoulder: "Okay!"
The two sisters went into Li Muyan's courtyard with smiles on their faces.
...
In the afternoon, Cai Xiaolian left with the children, and Madam Li saw them off at the door.
"Yuan Yuan!" A carriage was parked at the entrance of the Li residence. When the woman in the carriage saw Madam Li, she suddenly called out.
Cai Xiaolian heard this name again, and without a doubt, it must be Madam Li's mother.
Then they saw two maids get off the carriage and help an elderly couple out of the carriage.
The elderly couple looked older than Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu, but Empress Dowager Jiang once said that her brother and sister-in-law were younger than Grandma Gu.
It's probably because they lost their daughter first and then their beloved son over the years!
"Grandma, be careful!" The Duchess of Rongguo almost fell as she excitedly went up the steps, but Gu Xin, with her sharp eyes, caught her.
"Thank you, thank you, young lady!" The Duchess of Rongguo calmed down a bit.
Madam Li, who was in a daze, also came to her senses and quickly stepped forward to help her mother. There was no need to ask; this was exactly how Madam Li imagined herself to look when she looked in the mirror in her old age.
"Mother, Father," Madam Li called out to the two.
"It really is Yuan Yuan, it really is Yuan Yuan! Master, come up quickly, come up quickly!" The Duchess of Rongguo turned around and waved.
Cai Xiaolian mouthed something to Madam Li, then left with the children.
It was quite inconvenient for the outsiders to be present when the family was reuniting.
Moreover, these scenes are so touching that watching too many will make you cry, so it's best to avoid them.
On the way back, Cai Xiaolian suddenly thought of Old Man Qin, who had appeared in the village several times.
Lu Zheng has already said that he is the one who wants to find relatives, and Cai Dacheng's family has already acknowledged the Qin family.
However, she didn't have a good first impression of the old man, and Cai Xiaolian had no intention of acknowledging any kinship with him.
But if it's not explained clearly, there's always a feeling that someone is hiding in the shadows, ready to suddenly jump out at any moment.
Having just seen Mrs. Li's parents, and then thinking back to Old Man Qin from before.
Well, Cai Xiaolian was quite certain that she was definitely not that lucky.
