Chapter 25: Golden Fingers?Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Gu Nian was also surprised. Cai Xiaolian continued, “You"re a PhD student in biology, so you should know the growth cycle of crops, right? Xin Xin said that good-looking crops take at least two months to ripen in less than a month, and those eggplants and cuc.u.mbers…”
“Mom!” Gu Nian interrupted her, “Tell me, is it that 9,000-year-old who has a Golden Finger?”
“Golden Finger?” Cai Xiaolian blinked, unable to react in time.
“He"s the kind of person who must travel through time! People like me, who wear books, know the plot of the book! Even if our appearance changed the plot of the book, I still know the general character! Do you think father traveled through time with a Golden Finger?” Gu Nian explained.
Cai Xiaolian shook her head. “I don"t think so. If that 9000-year-old has a Golden Finger, he would have said it last night. He was sure that the two of us girls wouldn"t do anything to him, so he wouldn"t have kept it a secret.”
Gu Nian thought about it and agreed with her. 9000-year-old had the aura of being the best in the world. He had even told them how to repay their debts yesterday, so it was impossible for him to keep it a secret!
“By the way, Nian Nian, does the female lead in the book have a Golden Finger?” Cai Xiaolian thought of the only Gu Xin in the family who was not strange.
Gu Nianzhi shook her head, “It"s not in the book. The book was written from a male perspective. The female lead was the male lead"s white moonlight. In the later stages, there were all kinds of women, and the male lead"s mind was filled with the female lead. The female lead"s unique traits were nothing but her beauty and the difficult times she had gone through with the male lead.”
Cai Xiaolian was a little surprised. Although she liked Xin Xin and felt sorry for her, she really couldn"t see how the little girl was any more beautiful than her big, beautiful eyes.
Gu Nian could tell what Cai Xiaolian was thinking. She smiled. “Mother, Xin Xin was abused in the early days. She was underfed, underdressed, and undernourished. We"ll take good care of her in the future. You"ll know when she grows up. The description in the book was that she had bright eyes and white teeth. Her black hair was like a waterfall, and she was tall and slender. Her voice was like a songbird.”
“I"m looking forward to what you have to say. Forget it, let"s not think about it. Let"s think about what we should do with the vegetables in this field first!” Cai Xiaolian smiled as she listened to Gu Xin"s description. Based on Gu Xin"s beautiful big eyes, she had already drawn the outline of a beauty.
“There are so many cabbage and radishes. We won"t be able to finish them in a short amount of time. Why don"t we use them to make spicy cabbage and dried radishes? My sister-in-law used to love them very much. I"ve learned a lot from her!” Gu Nian had an idea at once.
“I"ve never done it before, but I can help you out,” Cai Xiaolian said.
Creak!
At that moment, the door was pushed open and Gu Xin came back with a small basket on her back.
“Mom, Sister, you"re both up!” Gu Xin ran over happily when she saw the two of them. She didn"t forget to close the door.
Looking at the fine beads of sweat on her forehead, she knew that this little girl had run back.
Cai Xiaolian sighed in her heart. What a sensible little girl. If she had a child in her previous life like Gu Xin, she would definitely dote on her to the heavens.
“Go wash your face quickly. Let your sister cook for you later. You"re up so early, and you"ve been busy for a while. You must be hungry now!” Cai Xiaolian raised her hand. She used her sleeve to wipe the sweat off Gu Xin. She did not even realize that her voice was much gentler than when she had spoken to Gu Nian earlier.
Gu Xin shook her head. “No, no, I"ll do it. Sister"s hands are used for sewing. You"ll hurt yourself if you cook!”
