In his past life, he had investigated the Gu family's situation and knew that Gu Xin missed her grandparents. He wanted to take Gu Xin back or bring her grandparents to live with her.
As a result, the people he sent to Taoyuan County said that the Gu family moved away four years after Gu Shouxin sold Gu Xin.
In the four years after Gu Shouxin sold Gu Xin, Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu completely disowned their family and even drove Gu Shouxin out of the village.
Cai Xiaolian and Gu Nian were not driven away, but Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu did not recognize them as mother and daughter. Afterwards, Cai Xiaolian recognized her relatives and left with Gu Nian, but was driven away. Then she relied on Gu Nian to get to the capital.
It seems that Gu Hui was still unmarried when they left.
As for where she went, Lu Zheng had been investigating when Gu Xin was alive in his previous life, but he couldn't find out.
...
Back in the village, Lu Zheng took the person home.
Seeing that Gu Xin was all dirty, Cai Xiaolian prepared hot water for her and told her to take a bath by herself. Then she went to the main room.
Inside the main room, Lu Zheng was sitting there talking about what had happened that day.
"I really never realized the Cheng family before!" Cai Xiaolian laughed in exasperation.
"Sister Huihui really ruined him?" Gu Nian asked in surprise.
Lu Zheng nodded: "I stomped on him hard, and then jumped on him a few times."
Since Gu Nian asked, and Gu Shouxin and Cai Xiaolian didn't say anything, he answered truthfully, without feeling that there was anything wrong with saying these things in front of a girl.
"Tsk tsk tsk, Sister Huihui's kicks, plus Grandma Xiao's four deadly weapons! Cheng Rui is in for a rough night. Hehe, I'm afraid Lord Cheng and Madam Cheng will be terrified tonight! Zhou Yuan, thank you so much!" Gu Nian said gloatingly, then sincerely thanked him.
"It was nothing," Lu Zheng nodded.
"No matter what, thank you!" Gu Nian smiled.
Lu Zheng then said no more.
“Ah Yuan, we went to the field earlier and the potatoes should be ready to be dug up. The harvest should be quite good. I wonder what your great-uncle plans to do with these potatoes?” Gu Shouxin asked Lu Zheng about farming.
"If the harvest is good, we'll keep some for ourselves and use the rest as seeds. That'll require you, Uncle and Aunt Lian, to teach me how to farm." Lu Zheng paused, then continued, "Once we've confirmed that the crop is safe for human consumption and that the yield per acre is indeed as my great-uncle knew, we'll plant it on a large scale, and then my great-uncle will take it to the capital. The credit for finding the seeds belongs to my great-uncle, and the credit for planting belongs to you, Uncle. Of course, if you don't mind, you can add me too."
The three time travelers all looked at Lu Zheng in surprise.
They only thought that Lu Zheng was using this to get close to their family and take care of Gu Xin. They never expected that he would be willing to give them such great credit.
For a moment, the three time travelers were at a loss for words.
"Second Uncle, Aunt Lian, Niannian, if the seeds I gave you before grow into other crops, please report them as well," Lu Zheng continued.
“You mentioned before that Master Zhou has many other seeds, but I don’t know how many more. Your Aunt Lian and I discussed it, and now that we’re not in the food business anymore, we have a lot of free time. We’d like to cultivate this wasteland behind the woods behind the house and try planting some. It won’t interfere with the crops in the field, and maybe we’ll even have an unexpected harvest,” Gu Shouxin said.
