As the questions continued, Gu Chengrui was finally stumped.
Zhou Ying was amused, but she had no intention of helping him answer them.
At this age, Guoguo was curious about everything. She would ask whatever she found and bombard everyone with questions.
It seemed like she would have to find “The Hundred Thousand Whys” book and read it properly for her.
“Woof woof.” The sound of a dog barking was heard. “Er Zhuang!” Guoguo ran over and shouted.
Gu Chengrui was shocked when he saw the dog pouncing at Guoguo. He lifted her up and kicked the dog to the side.
The dog squeaked twice. After getting up, it continued to bark at them but did not go forward.
Gu Chengrui looked at Guoguo and said, “Look carefully. This isn’t Er Zhuang.
Er Zhuang is in another manor.”
Guoguo looked at the dog carefully for a while. She finally realized the dog was much taller and stronger than Er Zhuang. However, it was not as good-looking as Er Zhuang.
She huffed, “Ugly.”
“Yes, it’s not as good-looking as Er Zhuang.” Gu Chengrui smiled.
“I’m Hu Ming. Greetings, Master, Mistress, and Miss.” At this moment, a burly man in his twenties jogged over and stopped when he saw them.
“You are the son of Head Hu, right?” Gu Chengrui asked.
“Yes, I am.”
“You are…”
“Oh, I’m here to pick some eggs and feed the chickens some water and food.” Hu Ming said.
“How many chickens, ducks, and geese are fed here?”
“500 chickens and ducks, and 200 geese.
“However, there are not many eggs being laid at this time. We can’t even collect a total of 50 eggs a day.”
“It’s normal, but I think it should be enough.” Gu Chengrui then asked him about the situation at the manor.
On the other end, Zhou Ying saw no danger after they chatted, so she walked up the mountain.
She looked at the peach trees and saw they had been neatly trimmed. There was even a layer of straw wrapped around the trees. Obviously, they were well-versed in the field, so she nodded in satisfaction.
When she reached the top of the manor, she encountered a wall.
Spreading out her divine sense, Zhou Ying saw that the mountain stretched further up, and it was endless and deep.
At this time, young masters were hunting inside, so there was not much prey left inside the forest, and it was very safe.
After a while, Gu Chengrui walked over with Guoguo in his arms. “This manor is really a good place to escape the heat in summer.”
“Yeah, but we have to prepare mosquito-repellent incense.” Zhou Ying nodded in agreement.
“Outside.” Guoguo pointed at the wall and wanted to walk out.
“It’s cold outside,” Zhou Ying said with a smile. “And there are wolves that will eat children.”
Guoguo was so frightened that she immediately retracted her hand.
Gu Chengrui looked at Zhou Ying’s teasing expression and knew she was lying. He did not expose her and just said, “Let’s go. Daddy will bring you to catch fish.”
“Fish!” Guoguo’s eyes immediately lit up.
“Yes, catch fish.” Gu Chengrui smiled and carried her down the mountain.
Zhou Ying chased after them.
When they reached the bottom, they found a small boat not far away with all kinds of fishing nets.
Zhou Ying brought some fishing nets with her and walked to the father and daughter’s side, pa.s.sing the fishing net to Gu Chengrui. “This is for you. I’ll look after Guoguo.”
After Gu Chengrui took it, he looked at Guoguo and decided not to let her partic.i.p.ate. If she accidentally fell in, his heart would ache for her.
He found a few large stones on the side and threw them at the gap in the frozen pond that had been smashed.
After smashing it ten times, the hole was finally opened.
A moment later, many fish spewed up like a fountain, causing Guoguo to squeak excitedly..
