Chapter 66: A Good Question

“That’s right. Your eldest cousin has always hated the name ‘Da Ya’ ever since she was a child. When the village calls ‘Da Ya’ to come home for dinner, there will be quite a few little girls answering!” Gu Shouxin added.

“Then why did you call me ‘Da Ya’ in the first place, Father and Mother?” Gu Xin asked curiously.

“Pfft!” Gu Nian laughed again.

Their Xin Xin’s question was a good one!

“Uh…” Gu Shouxin and Cai Xiaolian didn’t know how to answer.

The little girl’s question was tricky!

Gu Shouxin’s memories were of drinking, gambling, and a certain white moonlight.

Cai Xiaolian’s memories were of her two daughters, but she didn’t like them because they weren’t sons.

Back then, Gu Xin had been born in the old mansion, and the Zhang family’s daughter had cursed Cai Xiaolian every day for not being able to give birth to a son.

Cai Xiaolian had desperately tried to give birth to a son, but in the end, she couldn’t!

Especially since the second child of the Zhang family’s daughter was a son, Cai Xiaolian disliked the two daughters even more.

It was only because Gu Nian had started to learn embroidery from her Third Aunt when she was eight years old that Cai Xiaolian started to treat Gu Nian a little better.

“Eh? Sister-in-Law Yumei is up ahead. Why is she going out when she’s pregnant?!” At this moment, Gu Xin’s attention was automatically diverted.

“Yumei, where are you going?!” Cai Xiaolian breathed a sigh of relief. She looked over. Gu Xin had already called her name, so she naturally knew who she was.

That day, Cai Xiaolian had given her a lecture. Gu Nian also knew that this was the daughter-in-law of the Wang family, the village flower of the Lotus Village. She had seven older brothers, so she had a deep memory. She looked over curiously.

Gu Shouxin drove the car to Sun Yu Mei’s side and stopped it.

“Second Uncle Gu, Second Aunt Gu.” Sun Yumei did not look well. She stopped to greet someone when she heard someone calling her.

“Sister-in-Law Yumei, what happened to your neck?” Gu Xin had sharp eyes. She jumped out of the car in fear when she saw that Sun Yumei’s neck was a little red. She wanted to get closer to take a look.

Sun Yumei adjusted her collar nonchalantly and said, “I’m fine, Xin Xin.”

“Sister-in-Law Yumei, is your neck injured? Are you going to see a doctor?” Gu Xin still felt that she was not seeing things. Sister-in-Law Yumei’s neck was injured.

“Xin Xin, come here.” Cai Xiaolian pulled Gu Xin over. It was obvious that Sun Yumei had something to hide. It was very awkward to be questioned.

She knew that after Sun Yumei married in, she liked Gu Xin very much. Perhaps when the two of them were alone, Sun Yumei would still tell Gu Xin. But now that their entire family was here, in her memory, other than Gu Xin, the Gu family… The other three had barely spoken to Sun Yumei. This was a sign that they were not familiar with each other!

“Sister-in-Law Yumei, where are you going? We’re going to Taoyuan County. Can we give you a ride? Grandma said that people with big bellies should not be tired,” Gu Xin asked again.

“That’s right, Yumei. Are you going back to your parents’ house to visit your brothers with your luggage? Get in the car, we’ll give you a ride.” Cai Xiaolian asked Gu Nian to clear a seat for her.

“Thank you, Second Uncle Gu, Second Aunt Gu, Xin Xin, Nian Nian.” Sun Yumei did not know how to reject the warm invitation. Going to Taoyuan County was indeed her way back to her parent’s house, so she got in the carriage.

The ox-cart set off again.

Not long after, a carriage from the Zhou family in the Zhou family town entered the San Cha Kou Village. Because they were going in opposite directions, the carriage and the ox-cart did not meet.

In the carriage, Lu Zheng sat upright and closed his eyes. Other than the adult Gu Xin in his mind, he was thinking about the current Gu Xin..
