With the help of Mu Qingnian, the "little teacher", Gu Min completed learning all the basic knowledge before the age of ten in less than a month. However, he, who was always afraid of causing trouble to Mu Fengting and Lin Wanru, made the first request after coming to this family for the first time.

"Hey, it's not a big deal, it's just buying books. It's rare that you love studying so much, uncle supports you!" Mu Fengting heard Gu Min hesitating for a long time and thought something had happened. It turned out that his request was to buy more books and learn more by himself. He agreed immediately. Although he and his wife never put any study pressure on the two children, the two children were very sensible, which made them both very pleased.

"Tomorrow is Saturday, and uncle doesn't have to go to work. How about our family of four go shopping tomorrow? It's a good opportunity to see what books you like, and buy some more clothes for you and Nian Nian. The weather will be hot soon, and you still need to add some clothes."

Hearing this, the shyness and embarrassment in Gu Min's eyes immediately turned into anticipation and joy, and his face also showed a rare excitement that was in line with his age. "Okay! Thank you, uncle!"

--------------

The next day, Gu Min got up early. During the more than one month of living in Mu Qingnian's house, he developed the habit of getting up early. Every morning, he would clean his room and tidy up the living room. Then he would go out for a morning run. At first, it might be to quickly familiarize himself with the surrounding environment, but later, he felt that the freshness of the grass and trees on the roadside in the morning, the red glow of the morning light, and the uncles and aunts who got up early to exercise, each scene could make him experience a unique tranquility. It seemed that the nightmare of the seven years was gradually fading away from his memory...

But today, he went out for a run and came back quickly. It was the first time for the whole family to go out, and he was looking forward to it more than anyone else. When he entered the door, he saw Lin Wanru holding two sets of clothes and asked Mu Fengting, "Husband, which one do you think looks good?"

Mu Fengting had his back to the door and didn't notice that Gu Min had come in. He kept saying nice things to her like crazy, "My wife is naturally beautiful, with an extraordinary temperament, so stunning that she can make fish sink to the bottom of their chests, geese fall to the ground, and the moon hide in shame..."

"Stop, stop, stop!" Lin Wanru hurriedly stopped him. Her husband, who was usually a very steady man, didn't know why he was like a naughty child in front of her. "Just tell me which one is suitable. Today is the first time our family goes out. I have to dress up well. I can't lose face for Xiao Min and Nian Nian."

Gu Min, who had been trying to reduce his presence and eating dog food with a smile, couldn't help but said, "I think uncle is right. Auntie is the most beautiful. She looks good in anything. But the weather is a bit cloudy today. Wouldn't bright colors bring out Auntie's beauty better?"

At this time, the two found Gu Min standing at the door. When they thought about what they just said being heard by a ten-year-old child, they felt a little embarrassed and blushed. Lin Wanru quickly changed the subject, "Look, Xiao Min is still the one who can come up with substantive suggestions. Let's listen to Xiao Min!"

Mu Qingnian also came out of the room. Gu Min was slightly stunned when he turned his eyes to her. The girl was wearing a white dress with pink lace decorations on the hem. The hem of the dress was embroidered with cute little flowers, which swayed gently with her movements, like dancing butterflies. She also matched a pair of white leather shoes with a delicate bow on the upper. Today, she tied two cute braids with colorful hairbands on them, and the whole person was like a lively little rabbit.

He always knew that his sister was cute, he knew it from the first time he saw her, but now every time he sees her, he has a deeper understanding of her cuteness. The girl jumped in front of the three of them, spinning around and saying, "Dad, Mom, brother, is this outfit okay for me today?"

Mu Fengting squatted down and pinched her cheeks, "My Nian Nian looks really pretty today." Lin Wanru on the side kissed her directly, "That's natural, it doesn't matter whose baby you are."

Mu Qingnian, who had been recognized by her parents, turned her eyes to Gu Min and asked, "What do you think, brother?"

In fact, Mu Qingnian was still a little nervous. Although she had treated him like her own brother for more than a month, the memories of her past life would still occasionally come flooding back. Facing the idol who was once high and mighty, now becoming a relative she met every day, it still felt a little unreal.

When Gu Min heard her voice, he had just recovered from his shock and replied with a gentle smile, "Nian Nian, you are very beautiful." The boy replied seriously, but his face showed a barely noticeable blush.

Seeing that everyone was there, Lin Wanru quickly changed her clothes, and then the family went out happily.

Lin Wanru and Mu Fengting walked hand in hand with their two children, Gu Min and Mu Qingnian, on the busy streets. There were some heavy clouds just now, but the sun came out one by one, sprinkled on the four members of the family, reflecting the outline of happiness.

Gu Min had never had the experience of shopping before. He had been mainly recovering from his injuries and studying for the past month. Not to mention before that, the human traffickers were afraid that these children would run away, so they rarely let them go to crowded places. Occasionally, they would come to the streets and just stare at them from a distance, watching them beg, so this kind of free shopping was really an experience he had never had before.

He looked around excitedly, full of curiosity about everything around him. He held Mu Qingnian's hand all the way, pointed at the shop windows and said something. At this moment, he did not act like a brother. Instead, Mu Qingnian, who was filled with a sweet smile and agreed with his brother, seemed more stable.

The family walked and stopped, then turned into a children's clothing store. Looking at the dazzling array of clothes, Mu Qingnian became even more excited. She turned to Gu Min who was still holding her hand and said, "Brother, can I choose clothes for you?"

This was Mu Qingnian's personal selfishness. In her previous life, when she was watching Gu Min's videos, she found that except for the lighter-colored costumes given to him by the performance organizer, his private clothes were all black or gray. Now she knew that it might be because he had no hope both physically and mentally at that time that he was so depressed...

But it's different now. His life now has less pain. Seeing the light in his eyes, she began to want to dress him up. After all, which girl can resist the fun of dress-up games?

Gu Min looked at his sister who was staring at him, his eyes shining. Why did he suddenly feel a little scared?
