As for the reason, Gu Xin couldnât explain it clearly. She only knew that Wang Tiezhu had bullied Sun Yumei, which was why Sun Yumei had gone back to complain with a big belly.
After Gu Nian heard it, she sighed, âThere are so many older brothers! One older brother giving birth to a son, tsk tsk... But, mother, arenât the Sun family members worried that Sun Yumei will be bullied even more in the Wang family?â
Cai Xiaolian pondered for a moment, âThe Wang family is small. There is only Granny Wang, her son, and daughter-in-law, plus Wang Tiezhu and Wang Cuihua. Granny Wangâs son, Wang Dasheng, canât do anything in the face of seven strong men!â
Cai Xiaolian was secretly trying to educate Gu Nian about the Wang familyâs population. She knew that she did not have the original ownerâs memories.
Gu Nianzhi understood now. Sun Yumei would not be bullied too much. There were so many people in her family. As long as she was reasonable and did not cause trouble, the Wang family would not be able to say anything in the face of the Sun family.
âMother, Sister, Sister Yumei is very good. Sheâs going to give birth to a baby. She told me that when she gives birth to a baby in the future, she will let me go and see it. She even gave me candy to eat,â Gu Xin added.
With that one sentence, Cai Xiaolian and Gu Nianâs affection for Sun Yumei, whom they had never met before, skyrocketed.
The mother and daughter trio talked as they walked. An hour passed quickly and they arrived at the Zhou family town.
Cai Xiaolian used to be busy with work and did not like to exercise, but the original owner was a village woman. She was in good health, so she did not feel tired at all after walking for two hours.
Gu Nian was just a little short. She was panting, but she was still able to hold on.
As for Gu Xin, there was no need to mention her. She had been busy all day and was already used to it. She had a full meal this morning.
The quaint streets and the people on the streets made Cai Xiaolian and Gu Nian feel that they had come to the ancient times. They were not the streets built in the later stages of the film and television industry, but the real ancient times.
The front of the shops fluttered with the guise of black and yellow-faced ordinary people dressed in plain clothes. The roads were paved with bluestone, and there were donkey drivers, ox carts, and palanquins. There were also low-rise houses on both sides of the streets, and salesmen carrying loads and selling goods.
It was so lively!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Gu Xin, like Cai Xiaolian and Gu Nian, had never seen such a scene. Although she was born and raised in the Great Zhou Dynasty, she had never left the village of San Cha Kou.
She was also stunned by this scene.
âLetâs go, letâs go. Nian Nian, you take Xin Xin with you. There are many people today, so donât get lost!â Cai Xiaolian was the first to come back to her senses.
Gu Xin held Gu Nianâs hand tightly without her having to say anything.
She was even more afraid than Cai Xiaolian and Gu Nian. She had heard that there were children in the village who followed adults to the county and were taken away by the courtesans.
Her grandfather had also told her not to talk to strangers and not to run around as long as they were out of the village.
âMother, what should we do first?â Gu Nian tugged at Gu Xin tightly, feeling a strong sense of responsibility.
âFirst, weâll buy some rice flour and seasoning. Then weâll go look for your father. Weâll have a meal together and then weâll go home.â Cai Xiaolian already had a plan in mind.
âMother, do you know where Father and Uncle are working?â Gu Xin asked curiously.
Cai Xiaolian pointed ahead and said, âI know! Look over there. It says it goes to the pier!â
âMother, you can read?â Gu Xin asked in surprise.
âOf course, your dad taught me. Xin Xin learned the names of her family from Grandpa, so mom has to learn too! I canât fall behind Xin Xin.â Cai Xiaolian had also discussed this with Gu Shouxin.
