As night fell, the gifts Xie Zhiyi had bought finally arrived in the city. Xie Zhiyi paid the shopkeeper and began delivering the gifts.
For Grandpa Gu, she gave him a painting and some local Cizhou tea. The painting depicted famous flowers in full bloom, which she gave him because he liked flowers. For Grandma Gu and her aunts, she gave them jewelry, which she chose herself. She also gave jewelry to Gu Xin and her sisters, including Huo Yanyu's share, with different colored bracelets.
The young lady runs her own business, so she's unlikely to be cheated. The price isn't high, but the sentiment behind it is what matters.
After delivering the gifts to the Gu family, she went to the Peng family with her maid.
Xie Zhiyi originally wanted to sleep at the Gu family's house, but seeing that the Gu family's embroidered building only had six rooms, and although Sister Huihui and Princess Jinghe were not at home, it was still their room, so she felt it was inappropriate to sleep there. If she slept in other guest rooms, she felt that she would be too far away from Xinxin and the others, so she decided to stay at the Peng family's house for the time being. Once she had tidied up her brother's house and filled it with things, she could move to the new city and come to see Xinxin and the others every day.
Gu Xin and Gu Si told Xie Zhiyi that the Peng family has a cousin, a delicate flower, and that he shouldn't get too close to her because she cries all the time and is very annoying.
Xie Zhiyi understood. She was a naive girl. Her father had all sorts of women in his backyard, and she knew exactly how to deal with people like that. She wasn't afraid at all!
That evening, Gu Xin and Gu Nian were talking to Cai Xiaolian when they started talking about Xie Zhiyi.
Gu Nian felt that Xie Zhiyi had become much more sensible than when they first met. Cai Xiaolian sighed, "With so many people in her father's backyard, how could she not be sensible?"
Although she acted impulsively when confronting Lord Xie, it was precisely this pure heart of protecting her mother that Cai Xiaolian liked very much.
Xie Zhiyi was not influenced by the traditional education that children should not speak ill of their fathers. She was clear-headed and knew how to protect her mother.
After being locked up by her father, she knew that if she didn't escape, she and her mother might be bullied together, so she escaped to find her brother.
My brother is more sensible now and can protect her and our mother.
It's quite remarkable that a fourteen-year-old girl ran away from home not because she was wronged at home, but because she wanted to go back and get help to help her mother get justice.
Hearing Cai Xiaolian's words, Gu Xin hugged her arm, her eyes squinting with happiness: "Mom, I feel so lucky! My parents are the best mothers in the world, and my sister is the best sister in the world. Because of you, I have no worries."
Cai Xiaolian patted Gu Xin's head: "Silly girl, you are also the best little girl in the world, your parents' precious daughter. We can't bear to see you suffer."
Gu Xin laughed foolishly: "Hehehe..."
Gu Nian hugged Cai Xiaolian on the other side and said, "Mom, I also want to be a little girl!"
Gu Xin laughed: "Sister, you were reincarnated too quickly! That's why you can't be a little girl!"
Cai Xiaolian was embraced by her two sweet-smelling daughters, her heart filled with tenderness: "Niannian is our precious eldest daughter, and Xinxin is our precious little daughter. You are both our precious treasures!"
Gu Nian looked at Gu Xin smugly, while Gu Xin gave her a knowing look.
"Waaaaah..." came the sound of crying from the crib next to me.
Cai Xiaolian quickly got up to check on Gu Xiaoba.
Gu Xin and Gu Nian exchanged a glance. Well, their family now has a precious little son.
The maidservant came in to help hold the child when she heard him crying.
After coaxing Gu Xiaoba, Cai Xiaolian urged her two daughters to go to bed.
