If it weren't for the hassle of moving in ancient times and her father's upcoming imperial examination, she really wanted to persuade everyone to leave. She really didn't want another cousin from another family, whom the original owner liked, to appear every now and then.
She is unaware that the original owner's husband in the book is about to appear; otherwise, she would have advised everyone to leave regardless of the consequences.
The sound of Xu Changfeng's mother wailing outside grew fainter and fainter. The family of four looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Gu Shouxin and Cai Xiaolian knew that this was a problem left behind by the original owner, Gu Nian, but Gu Xin did not know it.
Gu Xin tugged at Gu Nian's sleeve and asked hesitantly, "Sister, are you really not going to get rid of that Young Master Xu?"
Although she firmly followed her mother in driving people away, it was only because she didn't want to see her sister being bullied or scolded.
She remembered clearly that last year, her sister had been trying to curry favor with Zhang Yunyun, the daughter of the village head, in order to meet that young master Xu.
“I’m not a doctor, how can I help?” Gu Nian smiled helplessly, patted Gu Xin’s shoulder, and said, “Xin Xin, the Xu family doesn’t think much of me, so I don’t need to rush to please them. No one in this world is indispensable to anyone else. Everyone has their own life, and everyone has their own meaning in living. Romantic relationships are not everything. Putting that aside, there are many other things we can do in our lives. So, I hope you remember that the most important thing in life is yourself. No one is worth sacrificing everything for.”
Gu Xin nodded as if she understood: "Yes, I think family is very important. I think my parents and sister are worth it."
Cai Xiaolian patted Gu Xin's head and said, "My darling, you're right, but let me tell you, the truly worthy person won't let you go that far."
Gu Shouxin: "Your mother and sister are right. Alright, let's continue tidying up the vegetable garden!"
This interruption didn't affect the family of four for long. They spent the whole morning tending to the vegetable garden, mainly transplanting the flowers from the ground into pots and carrying them to the pond near the new house, and also placing some in the back ditch.
You can collect the flower seeds after the flowers wither.
After finishing with the flowers, I picked onions and carrots, two vegetables that can be stored for a longer time, and cleared out a total of eight plots. Then I got the numbered seeds, planted them, and recorded the results. By then it was afternoon.
The family of four was starving, so they picked some fresh vegetables, boiled a few sausages, and steamed a pot of rice, which solved their lunch problem.
In the afternoon, the two sisters from the eldest branch of the family came over to do some errands.
Seeing the flowers by the pond, Gu Hui and Gu Si asked curiously, as they hadn't seen them before.
Gu Nian explained that she brought them back from the estate because she thought they were pretty. There were several other kinds of flowers on the estate that they had never seen before, so she only brought these few.
Most girls like beautiful flowers, and the Gu sisters are no exception. Gu Si even asked for a pot to take home and grow.
Gu Nian and Gu Xin certainly wouldn't refuse a potted plant; they simply said they'd help them carry it back when they got home.
Gu Xin remembered that her grandfather also liked flowers. However, her grandfather was very single-minded and had always liked orchids. There were several kinds at home. She heard her grandfather say that there are many kinds of orchids in the world. Gu Xin secretly hoped that there would be more orchids among this batch of seeds. She would send them to her grandfather, and he would definitely be very happy.
