After I traveled through the book, I spoiled the anorexic prince
Chapter 85 There are no other adopted girls in the village
Aunt Gu noticed her trance and calmly changed the subject: "Qinghe, how about going to town today?"
Speaking of the town, Gu Qinghe collected his thoughts and picked out the good ones and said to her, "It's pretty good. The young master of the Tiger Whiskers Restaurant liked it very much yesterday. We are now working together."
For cooperating with Jingse's Dragon Beard Pastry, she only took five taels of silver, which was given to her by the man who regarded money as his eyes and saw that she rarely wore good clothes.
She handed the bag of five taels of silver to Aunt Gu, and made an excuse: "Aunt Gu, you should keep this for now. I spend money lavishly, and when we save more money in the future, we will hire someone to look for Brother Gu."
Aunt Gu did not expose her. Finding her son had always been her biggest wish. When other families' sons were conscripted, they would at least receive a letter every few months. But for her son, there were only letters in the first two years, and no news at all in the following years.
It was not uncommon for people to die on the battlefield. There were also men in the village who were conscripted and died in the war. The court gave them a few taels of silver as compensation, but for her family, the court would regularly give them some silver every year, sometimes a small bag of grain, to let her know that her son had not died in the war.
Seeing her take it, Gu Qinghe couldn't bear to be sad, so he imitated her previous behavior and changed the subject: "Mother Gu, I have something to ask you."
Aunt Gu asked, "What's the matter?"
"Auntie, do you know that besides me, there are other people in the village who were picked up, preferably little girls?"
She was asking for Xie Fuyi, both for the purpose of learning martial arts and for him as a person.
In the village, where boys are favored over girls, boys eat the leftover food from girls. Most families will not go to the trouble of adopting girls, but there is some possibility for boys.
Aunt Gu thought about it carefully and shook her head, "No. These days, every household can barely support themselves, so there is no money left to support other people's children."
She originally wanted to say that it was an abandoned child, but when she thought of the little girl's life experience, she immediately changed her mind. Seeing the little girl frown, she hurriedly asked, "What's wrong? Is there any news about your parents?"
"No."
Gu Qinghe rejected it outright and told her about how he met a man with great martial arts skills and wanted to become his disciple, hiding the little incident of how he was picked on by the young master of an official family.
"Is that so?" Aunt Gu nodded and said, "I'll go ask for you tomorrow. Maybe it has appeared again in recent years and I didn't remember it.
"Okay, thank you, Mother Gu."
Gu Qinghe smiled and expressed her sincere gratitude. The Aunt Gu family she met after traveling through time healed the weak family ties that had caused her to be lonely for several years in her previous life.
This treatment was better than any time-travel novel she had ever read. There was no harassment from the bad relatives, and as for the troubles from the stubborn villagers, it was basically an overwhelming victory.
"We are one family, so we should not have different opinions." Aunt Gu gave her a reproachful look and said, "Look, you have been cooking for us and protecting us these days. Have you ever said such polite words to you?"
It’s not that she is ungrateful, but she treats Gu Qinghe as her real daughter. Even if Gu Qinghe doesn’t do these things, she will still support her.
Gu Qinghe understood what the woman in front of him meant and softened his voice and said, "You are so kind to me."
It’s so good that I even hope you are my real mother.
Rather than my parents who are historians and are so busy searching for treasure that they don’t care about my life or death.
