Gu Xin rarely leaves the city, but this time, enjoying the gentle spring breeze and the wildflowers by the roadside, she felt wonderful.
Gu Xin suddenly said, "Sister, we have a lot of flower seeds at home. What do you think? How about we fence off all the streets of Kuncheng and scatter flower seeds on them? When there are more flowers and plants, won't those people who aren't used to going to the toilet at home stop relieving themselves indiscriminately when they see such beautiful scenery?"
Bai Er interjected, "Third Miss, people who defecate indiscriminately won't stop just because of their surroundings. Some people are born without a sense of shame. Really, we must use Lord Gu's iron-fisted methods to continue punishing them until they stop."
Gu Xin: "...Oh, okay! But planting flowers is nice too!"
Gu Nian thought for a moment and said, "This is a huge project. You should talk to Dad about the city's construction and let him consider it. We'll just offer our opinions."
Gu Si said, "Third Sister, we could try scattering some seeds in the trading area and near the restaurants. There are fewer people living there, unlike the east side where many people live. Once spring is over and the flowers are in bloom, the people in the city will naturally think that area is prettier. When Second Uncle says he wants to plant flowers all over the streets, I'm sure many people will be willing."
Gu Xin thought about it and realized that made sense. She kept it in mind and planned to invite Yuan Yuan to join her when he had a day off tomorrow.
After spending the day out, Gu Nian chose a place, and the group headed home.
At the city gate, they encountered the Peng brothers, Peng Chi and Peng Mu, as well as Cheng Huaiyu, who seemed to be waiting for someone.
Peng Chi is the third son of the second branch of the Peng family.
Peng Mu was the son of the fourth wife, and the sixth child in the family, known as Peng Liulang.
"Xiaoyu, Third Brother Peng, Sixth Brother Peng, what are you doing here?" Gu Xin dismounted and stepped forward to ask.
Gu Nian had only been to the Peng family once and was not familiar with the people in the Peng family, so she simply dismounted and nodded to greet them.
She now feels panicked when she sees boys her age; it's not narcissism, but fear.
Gu Si and Gu Xin went there more often and were familiar with Peng Mu and Cheng Huaiyu, but they were not familiar with this Peng Sanlang.
The main reason is that Peng Sanlang only returned home on the first day of the Lunar New Year, delivered the message, and then left again. He went out on a mission with Lu Zheng.
Peng Sanlang looked at Gu Xin and scratched his head somewhat awkwardly. Gu Nian, who was on horseback, could see clearly that Peng Sanlang was not as natural as Peng Liulang when he saw Gu Xin.
Cheng Huaiyu happily shared with Gu Xin and Gu Si that her aunt's niece was arriving today, and she had asked her two older brothers to bring her along to pick her up.
No sooner had she finished speaking than a horse-drawn carriage appeared on the official road, driven by a man dressed in the uniform of Peng Jiajun's army.
Peng Mu smiled at Cheng Huaiyu: "Xiaoyu, Sister Yueli has arrived."
Cheng Huaiyu nervously held Gu Xin and Gu Si's hands: "Xin Xin, Si Si, do you think Sister Yue Li will like me?"
Gu Xin smiled and said, "Definitely."
The carriage stopped in front of them. The two drivers greeted Peng Sanlang and Peng Liulang. The curtain was opened, and a girl who looked very delicate, dressed in a moon-white outfit and wearing a small white flower in her hair, stepped out of the carriage.
Peng Sanlang and Peng Liulang's expressions changed. What kind of outfit is this?
Knowing what happened to your parents, and six months later, is it really appropriate for you to dress like this when you come to someone else's home? Have you considered the feelings of the host family?
Yin Yueli looked at the people in front of her with slightly moist eyes. She gave a pale smile, feeling somewhat awkward and uneasy.
