1991 Gu Xin can tell
....
Gu yingxue had made her feelings clear. She did not tell anyone but Gu Nian. She also secretly warned herself not to show it too obviously as it would not be good for everyone.
She didn’t even dare to think about the awkwardness Cheng huaijin would have when he faced her after finding out about her intentions, or how he would ignore her.
The next day, when Cheng huaijin, Gu Xin, and Gu si came to visit her, Gu Xin already noticed that something was wrong with Gu yingxue.
It wasn’t that Gu yingxue’s words were wrong, it was just the look in her eyes.
Gu Xin had seen this kind of expression from grandma Gu before.
When grandma Gu looked at Grandpa Gu, she only had eyes for him. There was trust, admiration, and love in her eyes.
She was shocked herself. Xue ‘er wasn’t like this a few days ago. Why was she like this today? Could it be that he had seen wrongly?
Gu Xin planned to call Cheng huaijin to visit Gu yingxue together for the next few days. She wanted to continue observing her.
This observation lasted for five days. In these five days, Gu Xin was sure that Gu yingxue had fallen for Cheng huaijin. She couldn’t help but be puzzled. With Xue ‘er’s personality, she should have discovered her inner feelings, but she was acting as usual. Why didn’t she tell her brother?
Gu Xin was not in a hurry to expose Gu yingxue. Instead, she quietly asked Cheng huaijin.
On the 11th day of the first month of the lunar year, the weather was as good as ever. The children of the Gu family were in the North Park, helping to set up a nursery. Although the younger members of the Gu family had already fallen in love with this place, the person in charge of the nursery hadn’t been confirmed yet. Peng Yizhu hadn’t returned to the capital yet, so this was where they usually played.
Gu Xin and the others also took the time to slowly purchase the items according to the blueprints that Peng Yizhu had sent.
Gu Xin saw Cheng huaijin sliding the ladder in the tree hole and ran over, ” “Brother, what are you doing here? You want to play? This slide is too narrow, you won’t be able to slide down!”
“I was planning to take a good look first. I’ll wait for Brother Yun to wake up from his afternoon nap and bring them over to play,” Cheng huaijin said with a smile.
Gu Xin leaned against the slide ladder and asked casually, ” “By the way, big brother, are you really planning to let the maidservant take care of big brother Yun when you bring him back? Have you really never thought of finding an aunt for Brother Yun?”
Cheng huaijin shook his head. I think Brother Yun and I get along pretty well. Two nights ago, I even carried him to my room to sleep. He was very obedient. I think it’s fine without aunty.”
Gu Xin stretched out her index finger and wagged it, ” no, no, no. Brother, you’re wrong if you think that way. The roles of a father and mother were indispensable to a child’s growing environment. Besides, even if it’s not for Brother Yun’s sake, you have to do it for yourself! Although the Western Region was very peaceful now, what about in the future? Father has said that after you return this time, he intends to go out and play. He will no longer be the ruler. If there’s any problem in the West, will you have time to take care of Brother Yun? Do you have time to manage the quicksand Palace? Therefore, the quicksand Palace needs a mistress, and Brother Yun needs an aunt who can be like a mother.”
Cheng huaijin knocked on Gu Xin’s head, ” “Why are you like an adult, persuading people to get married? It’s just as second uncle and second aunt said, you’re a little worrywart!”
