"Sister, can I not go to Aunt Luo's house? Parents and you have already gone, so it's okay if I don't go, right? I want to go shopping. Yan Yu and Huo Shentong are going back soon, and I want to go shopping with Yan Yu." Gu Xin had no experience in lying, so she spoke haltingly.
"You take Sisi with you, Niannian and I will go to the Li family." Gu Hui seemed to understand Gu Xin's meaning.
Gu Xin was looking at Zhou Yuan just now, she was very sure.
This girl probably wants to buy Zhou Yuan a gift. I wonder what she'll say when Zhou Yuan and Little Mouse go shopping with them.
Gu Xin breathed a sigh of relief. Sister Huihui is so kind!
After resolving the problem, Gu Xin reverted to her talkative nature, chattering away to everyone.
Upon arriving in the prefectural city, Gu Xin, Gu Si, and Huo Yanyu got off the car directly on the main street. Lu Zheng and Huo Junhao wanted to go with them, but Gu Xin grabbed her two girlfriends and ran off.
Huo Junhao asked curiously, "Brother, do those three little girls have some kind of secret?"
Lu Zheng laughed and said, "Why don't you go and ask them?"
Huo Junhao sighed: "Xinxin and Sisi know kung fu. Yanyu has been staying here for more than two months and her strength has obviously increased. She can run very fast. I can't catch up with her!"
Lu Zheng glanced at him: "What if Yan Yu gets up every morning to practice kung fu, and you're the only one among your friends who doesn't know kung fu? Aren't you ashamed?"
Huo Junhao shook his head: "What's shameful about it! My uncle said that everyone knows kung fu, but I don't. That's perfect, everyone can protect me, isn't it! Just like my uncle, my second uncle, third aunt, and fourth uncle are all powerful, and no one in the village bullies him."
Lu Zheng: "..."
...
Gu Shouxin and Cai Xiaolian took Gu Hui and Gu Nian to the Li family.
Mrs. Li warmly welcomed them at home. Li Muyan, having received the news, rushed over, as he hadn't seen Niannian for a long time!
Looking at her son's eyes full of concern for Gu Nian, Madam Li couldn't help but smile and said, "Mu Yan, didn't you say you had new plans for the shop this year? Why don't you take Hui Hui and Niannian to your yard to talk about it? I'll chat with your second uncle and Aunt Lian."
Gu Shouxin and Cai Xiaolian did not stop them. With Gu Hui around, and since they were not alone together, Huihui would not allow them to do anything inappropriate.
After the three children went downstairs, Madam Li asked, "Where are Xinxin and Sisi? The four sisters are always together, why didn't they come this time? I even prepared red envelopes for them."
Cai Xiaolian laughed and said, "Those two kids now have girlfriends, and they don't want their friends to leave, so they took them shopping."
Gu Shouxin suddenly asked about the Duke of Rong and his wife, Madam Li, since they had been there for so long but hadn't seen them. What was wrong? Did they not welcome them?
Madam Li sighed, "My father was fine just a couple of days ago, but this morning his old ailment flared up again, and my mother is taking care of him. My mother-in-law hasn't been feeling well since last winter. Alas, that's the downside of getting old. So, Brother Shouxin, Xiaolian, we need to take good care of our health so we can enjoy the blessings of our children in the future. By the way, Brother Shouxin, Xiaolian, we've known each other for a year now, and I don't consider you outsiders. I just wanted to ask about Muyan and Huihui's relationship?"
Cai Xiaolian smiled and said, "Sister Luo, I've mentioned it to you before. Niannian is a very opinionated child. If she doesn't say so, her father and I can't force her. This matter still needs to be decided by her own decision."
Madam Li said apologetically, "It's just that Mu Yan is getting old. If I, as his daughter-in-law, were to speak unfilially, Mu Yan's grandmother won't last much longer. I'm just afraid that..."
Gu Shouxin and Cai Xiaolian understood Madam Li's meaning. According to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, when grandparents pass away, grandchildren must observe a year of mourning and are not allowed to get married or take the imperial examinations within that year.
Gu Shouxin said, "That depends on fate."
