"Huh? Young master, why is there a hole in your shoe and blood?" Jixiang, with her sharp eyes, immediately noticed the problem on Lu Zheng's body.
"It's nothing, I just tripped over a rock and probably got hurt," Lu Zheng said calmly.
I was cursing under my breath, my toes hurt so much!
"Young Master Zhou may not be used to walking on our country roads. Remember to be careful in the future!" Seeing his blank expression, Grandma Gu said calmly.
“Thank you for your concern, Madam. Our cooperation has been finalized, and I have left the seeds. I won’t trouble you any longer, Uncle Gu, Aunt Lian, farewell!” Lu Zheng cupped his hands and said.
"Young Master Zhou, please take your time. We will come to your residence to inform you when the seeds are planted," Gu Shouxin said, bowing slightly.
Then the family watched as Lu Zheng and his two servants boarded the carriage.
After getting into the car, Lu Zheng refrained from looking at his Xin'er through the window. He was afraid that the Gu family would suspect Gu Nian again. Also, his feet were in so much pain, and his heart was aching terribly.
"Why don't you go and take a look?" After the carriage left, Grandma Gu looked at the four members of the Gu family.
"Dad, Mom, the cake isn't finished steaming yet, just a little bit left. Let's finish the three of us first, and then let Xinxin go with Grandma!" Gu Nian said first.
This is the only chance she'll get; otherwise, with Xinxin at home, she won't be able to voice her suspicions.
"Sister, I can help too." Gu Xin had gotten used to the whole family working together these past few days, so she quickly offered her assistance.
"What help are you? Let your parents and sister do their own work. Come on, let's go with Grandma first." Grandma Gu pulled Gu Xin away. In previous years, Xin Xin was always the one doing the work. Now that the other three adults had to do their work, she let them do it.
"Grandma, remember not to throw away the offal, especially the pig intestines, I need those," Gu Nian added.
"Understood." Grandma Gu didn't reply and continued walking forward.
After watching the grandfather and granddaughter walk away, Gu Shouxin and Cai Xiaolian looked at Gu Nian with direct expressions, as if to say, "What's wrong with you? You need the three of us to steam the cake?"
"Dad, Mom, we've made a great discovery! Come on, let's go back inside and talk about it!" Gu Nian grabbed one of them with each hand.
Gu Shouxin and Cai Xiaolian exchanged a glance.
Your adopted daughter is getting more and more used to life and becoming more and more lively!
That's your adopted daughter too!
After conveying their meaning with their eyes, the family of three went to the kitchen.
They sat in a row on the small stools in front of the stove.
"Dad, Mom, let me tell you, that Zhou Yuan is very likely the scumbag male lead Lu Zheng in this book!" Gu Nian didn't beat around the bush and directly told her guess and what had happened when she tried to get information out of Ji Xiang.
The couple was surprised, but when they considered Lu Zheng's words, many things became clear.
For example, the person he was looking at wasn't Gu Nian, but Gu Xin.
"Are you sure?" The Ninth Prince's eyes narrowed again, looking extremely dangerous.
"I'm not sure, but it's probably true. So, I just want to take this opportunity to discuss with my parents how we can find out his identity. If he is Lu Zheng, we'll be able to get it out of him in no time!" Gu Nian said with a grin.
“Niannian, something’s not right! Even if he is Lu Zheng, how could he…” Cai Xiaolian said, as if she had just remembered something, her eyes widening in disbelief, “If he is Lu Zheng, why is he here now, seemingly deliberately getting close to our family? Could it be that he has been reborn?”
