When that time comes, my brother will also be able to marry a beautiful sister-in-law and live a long life together.
Even at a young age, she knew that although Uncle Facai was good to her brother, he was ultimately a slave.
Actually, if it weren't for my illness, my brother might have been able to pursue the imperial examinations in the future.
It's all my fault that my brother is in trouble...
"Yue'er, you..." Zheng Qian's voice was almost choked with sobs.
They were born of the same mother, so Zheng Qian knew exactly what his sister was thinking.
Zheng Yue stepped forward and took Zheng Qian's hand, saying, "Brother, please let me go! I'm sure I can learn embroidery well from Sister Gu!"
Zheng Qian thought about it for a moment and then nodded in agreement.
"Yue'er, then pack your things and come back with me in a bit!" Gu Lili said with a smile.
In fact, Zheng Yue didn't have much; all she had was a change of clothes and nothing else.
Gu Yun Chu and the others had packed their food, and Gu Li Li and Zheng Yue prepared to set off.
Li Tiansheng jogged over and said, "Lili, can I ride back with you in the carriage?"
After saying that, he looked at the white horse in front of him with a smug expression.
You little brat! If you won't let me touch you, then you can drag me back.
The horse had been hungry for a long time, and Gu Lili didn't want it to suffer any more.
He refused, saying, "Third Uncle, you should go sit with Yun Chu. This horse hasn't eaten enough and has no energy. I'll take you next time!"
Most importantly, when they arrive at the manor, Gu Lili will have to secretly slip some things inside.
If Li Tiansheng were to be brought along, wouldn't the secret be exposed?
Upon hearing this, Li Tiansheng had no choice but to reluctantly walk towards Gu Yun Chu.
snort!
Eat more next time, then I'll come and pressure you!
That'll teach you to not let me touch you!
Upon hearing Gu Lili's words, Zheng Yue, who was already sitting on the carriage shaft, prepared to jump down.
Seeing this, Gu Lili quickly stopped her and asked, "Yue'er, what are you doing!"
Luckily I didn't loosen the reins, otherwise it would have been really dangerous.
"Sister Gu, I'm afraid I'll run over the horse. I'll just run alongside the carriage," Zheng Yue said somewhat shyly.
This horse is a Akhal-Teke, and Zheng Yue, with her small frame, wants to keep up with it?
It would probably be strenuous for them to follow Gu Yun Chu and the others.
Seeing her like this, Gu Lili quickly comforted her, "You're not much heavier than a little chick, you can't hold the horse down. Hold on tight, let's go!"
As if to confirm Gu Lili's words, the horse loosened its reins and galloped forward.
Zheng Qian had originally planned to say goodbye to her younger sister properly, but it was clearly too late.
Gu Lili pointed out that she left them with her back turned and a cloud of dust rising in the air.
"Erniu, do you think this horse is so wild that it can't pull me along?" Li Tiansheng asked unwillingly.
They disappeared in a flash, unlike what Gu Lili said, that they couldn't be pulled away.
Gu Yun Chu said helplessly, "Third Uncle, I told you, don't call me Er Niu anymore! My name is Yun Chu!"
"Erniu!"
"Yun Chu!"
"......"
Li Tiansheng and Gu Yunchu bickered as they slowly drove towards Gu Village.
Before seeing a horse-drawn carriage, Gu Yun Chu thought her oxcart was incredibly fast.
After seeing the carriage, Gu Yun Chu wondered why her ox was so slow!
It took Gu Lili about fifteen minutes to reach Gu Manor.
Gu Lili thought it was really exciting.
I could feel the wind whistling past my ears.
As soon as she turned around, Gu Lili and Zheng Yue met eyes.
The moment their eyes met, Gu Lili almost burst out laughing.
Zheng Yue's bangs were blown up by the wind.
While Gu Lili was laughing at Zheng Yue, she was completely unaware that Zheng Yue was also secretly laughing at her.
If Gu Lili had a mirror in her hand right now, she would have noticed that she didn't look much better than Zheng Yue.
Gu Lili tightened the reins and reached one hand into the carriage curtain.
Zheng Yue didn't feel anything, but the white horse pulling the carriage definitely felt it; it seemed that the weight on its back had increased significantly.
After buying the items, Gu Lili loosened the reins and drove the horse toward her own courtyard.
"Young Master, that looks like the Township Head!" Lai Fu spotted Gu Lili and said to Han Mingyue.
Han Mingyue looked up and almost burst out laughing at Gu Lili's appearance.
Looking at Zheng Yue beside Gu Lili, she looked exactly the same.
Han Mingyue opened the folding fan in her hand, covered her face, and secretly laughed.
He laughed so hard his shoulders twitched.
Gu Lili had already noticed Han Mingyue, so when she got to Han Mingyue, she quickly pulled on the reins.
"Mingyue, tomorrow at 9:00 AM, the wealthy shopkeeper will be in the courtyard. Will you take some people to fetch the wine then?" Gu Lili asked.
At 9:00 AM, the time was just right, avoiding the time when the grain was being transported.
Then, Gu Lili will be able to change her equipment.
Han Mingyue looked up at Gu Lili, her face flushed red, and nodded repeatedly.
For some reason, the moment Han Mingyue looked up and saw the carriage driven by Gu Lili, she felt that the white horse looked strangely familiar.
It seems like I just saw someone else ride it.
Because white horses are rare, it didn't take Han Mingyue long to figure out who had ridden one.
However, how could Gu Lili possibly urge that man's horse on?
Han Mingyue shook her head, suppressing the absurd thought.
Seeing that Han Mingyue had agreed, Gu Lili continued driving the carriage back.
In his heart, however, he thought to himself that Han Mingyue seemed to have some mental issues.
Why are you just grinning like an idiot?
Gu Lili drove the horse into the courtyard. Gu Huanhuan, Gu Yanyu, and Old Madam Li heard the commotion and all ran out of the house.
"Sister, you're back!" Gu Yanyu ran all the way to Gu Lili's carriage.
Gu Lili stopped the horse and jumped off the carriage.
Zheng Yue also jumped off the carriage with Gu Lili and stood beside her.
Before Gu Lili could answer, Gu Huanhuan walked over and said, "Sister, why is your hair flying everywhere?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Lili quickly walked to the water vat and looked down at it.
Sure enough, her hairstyle was exactly the same as Zheng Yue's.
No wonder Han Mingyue kept laughing!
Gu Lili scooped up some water, pressed her bangs down, and then casually pressed Zheng Yue's bangs down as well.
"Huanhuan, this is the companion your sister found for you. Her name is Zheng Yue. How about you learn embroidery with her from now on?" Gu Lili said to Gu Huanhuan while fixing her hair.
I tried to quell it for ages, but my hair still stubbornly stood up.
Seeing this, Grandma Li smiled indulgently and came to help Gu Lili fix her hair.
When Zheng Yue heard Gu Lili mention her, she stood awkwardly beside Gu Lili.
