Gu Nian and Gu Ren came out of the old couple's house and went straight to Cai Xiaolian. Gu Shouxin happened to be there too, and they told him about it.
Gu Shouxin and Cai Xiaolian were both speechless.
Gu Shouxin laughed and said, "Gu Ren, when you wrote that storybook, was it because you wanted to find your relatives?"
Gu Ren: "...Second Uncle, we call it a novel where I'm from! Besides, the role I gave my dad was to hone Lu Zheng. He was a whetstone for Lu Zheng when he went to Jiangnan to do his work. He didn't have many scenes, but he was made to suffer a lot by Lu Zheng."
Gu Shouxin smiled and shook his head. "You've lived long enough to encounter all sorts of things."
Cai Xiaolian hugged Gu Xiaoqi and said with a smile, "If there is such a thing as past and present lives, your parents helped raise Niannian and then adopted you, so you're related by blood. Only your third daughter was adopted. Just bear with it, and you can talk back to her like this when she teases you in the future!"
Gu Ren's eyes lit up: "Oh, Second Aunt! You really do love me!"
Gu Nian felt like her mother was watching a melodramatic soap opera unfold in the Gu family. "Mom, you're the Gu family's daughter-in-law, the one who gave birth to three kids!"
...
At this very moment, Gu Xin was also reading a letter, written to her by Cheng Huaiyu.
After reading it, she frowned, feeling a bit strange.
In her letter, Cheng Huaiyu wrote about her life over the past six months, saying that she had met a man she admired. He was a businessman, a Confucian merchant with official rank, who would go to sea to do business in the Kingdom of Jinan and the Kingdom of Goddess.
He was in love with Xiaoyu, and the two confessed their feelings for each other within six months. The man was willing to help Xiaoyu find her brother because he was afraid that her brother was injured.
He felt that Xiaoyu's voice had suddenly improved because she must have taken some kind of magic medicine. He wanted Xiaoyu to give it to him so he could take it out. If they found the seriously injured Cheng Huaijin, wouldn't that be a chance to save him?
In her letter, Cheng Huaiyu asked Gu Xin if her voice had improved because of Gu Xin, and if Gu Xin had any miracle cures. If so, she wanted them.
She was willing to pay Gu Xin to buy it.
Then she said that after her adoptive mother and adoptive father got married, they paid less attention to her. When her adoptive mother had a child, she became even more pitiful. She wanted to find her brother as soon as possible. She didn't want to be married off by her adoptive parents so easily.
She begged Gu Xin to help her.
Gu Xin held the letter in her hand, remaining silent for a long time.
She felt very uncomfortable. How could Xiaoyu say such things about Aunt Peng? She had personally heard Aunt Peng tell her mother that she should raise Xiaoyu well, let Xiaoyu learn more, and find her a good husband in the future.
At the time, her mother said, "Once you find a husband and have children, will you still care about Xiaoyu so much?" Aunt Peng said that no matter whether she gets married or not, or whether she has children after marriage, Xiaoyu will always be her eldest daughter. Moreover, the other party must accept Xiaoyu; otherwise, she will not marry him.
Why did Xiaoyu say that in the letter?
Gu Xin tried to find the reason for Xiao Yu's insecurity in her mind. She felt that it was probably caused by Xiao Yu's lack of security. She didn't want to think too badly of Xiao Yu.
There's also the miracle drug. Xiaoyu never mentioned it during the months we spent together in Kuncheng. Why is she bringing it up now?
Even if it really was because of her, she wouldn't tell Xiaoyu.
Although Xiaoyu was her friend, Xiaoyu was not as important as her grandparents and uncles in her letter. She hadn't even told her grandparents and uncles, so naturally she wouldn't tell Xiaoyu either.
But how should I reply?
Gu Xin didn't want to lie to her friends.
