Gu Xin did not suspect Cai Xiaolian and Gu Nian at all, because they had never taken her out with them before.
Cai Xiaolian would hardly speak to her, except to scold her.
Gu Nian would usually ignore her, except for snatching her food.
Moreover, she now felt that she was a burden to her mother and sister. She wanted to change herself, so she had no time to think about anything else.
“Why are you here?” At this moment, Gu Shouxin suddenly appeared and looked at the mother and daughter in surprise.
He had just come from the dock and happened to meet the mother and daughter who were going to look for him.
“Father, Mother and Sister were so powerful just now. They...” Gu Xin ran to Gu Shouxin and pulled him with her hand. She raised her head and spoke excitedly.
Gu Shouxin furrowed his brows when he heard this. His voice became a little gloomy after he heard it. “Zhang Pipi and them? Where are they now?”
Cai Xiaolian saw that Gu Xin was so frightened that her small hands shrank. She took a step forward, held Gu Xin’s hand, and said to Gu Shouxin, “Stop frowning. You’re scaring Xin Xin. Those people were bitten by wild dogs. You don’t have to teach them a lesson. Are you hungry? Let’s go. It’s rare for us to come to town. Let’s go eat first!”
“Yes, yes, let’s eat. We walked to town, and we’ve used up so much energy just now. I’m a little hungry now!” Gu Nian said as well.
Gu Xin held Cai Xiaolian’s hand and looked at Gu Shouxin eagerly.
Father had become fierce again. Was it because he felt that his family had changed in the past two days? Was he angry because she talked too much?
Gu Xin was a little worried. She was afraid that her parents and sister had changed back to the past.
“Okay, let’s go eat.” Gu Shouxin saw Gu Xin’s pitiful look and felt sorry for her. He relaxed his eyebrows and smiled gently at Gu Xin. Then, he went to hold her other hand.
The old nine thousand years old was temperamental and could control his expression. He was angry whenever he wanted and laughed whenever he wanted.
Gu Xin blinked.
She had never been held by her parents like this before. She used to envy the children in the village for being held by their parents to go shopping in the town.
Gu Nian walked to the side and looked at Gu Xin’s silly look. It was really difficult to associate her with the female protagonist in the book who had bright eyes, was gentle as water, and understanding. She was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and all sorts of other things.
The female protagonist in the book, Gu Xin, was brought to Jiangnan by her family after she was sold to avoid gambling debts. She was carefully nurtured, and in less than six years, Gu Xin was nurtured into a person that the male protagonist would never forget.
Such a silly girl had transformed into a completely different person in six years. How much suffering must she have gone through?
The three of them had transmigrated here. Could it be that god pitied Gu Xin for having gone through so much in her past life, and had specially changed three people to take care of her in this life, so that she could spend her whole life foolishly and happily?
Gu Shouxin had originally wanted to bring the three of them to the restaurant, but he had no choice. He was used to it. Although he had accepted Gu Shouxin as a gambler, it had only been a few days, and he could not change his usual behavior in an instant.
Cai Xiaolian was the one who changed quickly. She pulled them around a corner at the entrance of the restaurant and went to a small noodle stall next to it.
“Her father, we don’t have much money on hand. We just need to eat a bowl of noodle soup. We’ll go buy some meat later and have Nian Nian cook a good meal. We still have other things to do at home! Let’s not dawdle.” Cai Xiaolian thought of the vegetables growing fiercely in the vegetable garden at home, she wanted to quickly pull Gu Shouxin back to take a look.
