Mo Beihan left and Gu Fangting looked through the things he had brought, then took the snacks to share with Little Six and Little Nine. She looked at the snacks, then at the beef jerky in her hand and thought of what Mo Beihan had said, that he had already prepared a share for her older sister.
Gu Fangting thought that whatever he had for her older sister would certainly be much nicer than what he had given them. Or at least, it would be a larger portion.
My God!
This Brother-in-law was so generous!
Why did she suddenly feel as if she had a generous patron?
Her older sister was usually very generous to her, and now her brother-in-law was the same!
A patron!
She must hang on to him!
Gu Fangting happily took the snacks and hurried off to look for Little Six and Little Nine.
In her room, Gu Qingyao was sitting by the bed. She was indeed making clothes for Lin Wanyin and Old Master Guo. She had taken apart some old clothes and altered them, stuffing them with new cotton wool. The outer layer was made of old material so no one could tell.
Mo Beihan entered and very naturally sat next to her. He reached out his hand and rested it on her shoulder. Gu Qingyao did not look up. She continued to focus on the needle and thread in her hand, but a smile appeared on her lips.
She shifted into his embrace so that he could partially hug her.
Delight filled Mo Beihan’s heart!
As he moved closer, he could smell her faint, girlish fragrance. He had been with her for so long in his previous life that her fragrance was all too familiar to him. The closer he was to her, the more mesmerized he felt.
From his angle, he could see the girl’s profile and her beautiful neck. Yao Yao’s complexion was very fair, soft and smooth. He could not see a single pore on her skin because of how smooth it was.
Mo Beihan could not help but lower his head and slowly move closer to try to linger over her smooth skin.
Gu Qingyao smiled as the breathing by her ear grew closer. She turned and looked at him. Without a word, she smiled and put her things aside, then she hooked her arms around his neck and lay back.
It was the new year, and Gu Jinhang, Gu Jinlin and Gu Jinfeng’s vacations were almost over. They had been learning frantically recently. As they studied, they realized that their former pride was just arrogance.
In this world, knowledge was as deep and wide as the ocean. What little they knew was not worth mentioning.
Compared to these old professors, they were truly immature.
When they realized this, they studied even more earnestly.
In the past, they only went to visit the old folks during the evening. But now, as time grew short, they also went in the afternoon.
So only the three children, Gu Fangting, Little Six and Little Nine were left at home. They were still young and could not learn too much at once, so they remained at home.
Gu Yunshuang returned early to cook lunch. Gu Jinlin and Gu Jinhang were not as crazed as Gu Jinfeng, so they came back to help Gu Yunshuang start the fire and cook.
Gu Jinfeng came back too. He had come back earlier to change his clothes before returning to the cowshed to ask his grandparents to come home and rest.
Besides the cowshed, there was a pigsty and a place for rearing chickens and ducks. The animals had to be fed every day and their area cleaned.
Today, Gu Yunshen was there helping Gu Chonghua and Wen Ruyu with their work. Now Gu Jinfeng was about to go over to ask Gu Chonghua and Wen Ruyu to come back and rest.
When they arrived home and saw so many things in the kitchen, they realized that Mo Beihan must have brought them.
“Ting Ting? Ting Ting?”
When Gu Fangting heard that, she hurried out. “Mother, you’re home!”
Gu Yunshuang pointed at the things in the kitchen. “Did your Brother-in-law bring these?”
