My daughter was sold, I want to divorce her and go back to my parents' home to escape the famin

"Oh my! Time flies! The young masters will be here for dinner soon! Madam Tian, ​​hurry up and bring the winter dates to prepare dinner!"

Lin Qingxue looked up at the sky, only to see that the night had already covered the entire sky like a huge piece of black silk, and not even a trace of starlight could penetrate.

When she thought of the four lovely children who had agreed to come and have dinner with them, she couldn't help but feel anxious and hurriedly urged Nanny Tian.

After hearing what Lin Qingxue said, Nanny Tian responded without hesitation, "Okay, I'll go prepare it right away. I just wonder what you, Princess, would like to eat tonight?"

Her words were full of respect. After all, ever since the Crown Princess handed the small kitchen over to her to manage, she could feel the Crown Princess's trust in her and her recognition of her cooking skills. She would always remember this favor in her heart.

Lin Qingxue pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "Well... for dinner, it's better to eat something light. As for the specific dishes, I'll leave it to you to decide! However, in a few days, if I can spare some time, I can teach you how to cook a few new dishes. Then, we can let the other masters in the mansion have a taste!"

Speaking of this, Lin Qingxue couldn't help but think of the mouth-watering hot pot and barbecue in the food building. She thought to herself that a wealthy family like the Gu family must be used to eating delicacies from land and sea on weekdays, but maybe they would also be interested in this novel and delicious food.

When the time comes and Aunt Tian and Dong Zao teach us how to make these dishes, then everyone will have a treat!

"Okay, then I'll prepare it right away!" Nanny Tian agreed with a smile on her face, and then led the well-behaved and clever Dongzao to the small kitchen to prepare a delicious dinner.

"The rest of you should just go back to your own business!"

Seeing that everyone was still standing in the yard, quietly waiting for further instructions, Lin Qingxue opened her red lips, casually said this, then gently took Gu Jinxuan's broad and warm hand and slowly walked into the house.

After confirming that the two masters had no other special instructions, the experienced and capable Nanny Jin immediately led everyone away.

Although Xuanxue Garden does not cover a large area and is only inhabited by two owners, Lin Qingxue and Gu Jinxuan, there are still many things to take care of.

Just as Lin Qingxue and Gu Jinxuan had just sat down, a loud noise suddenly came from outside the yard.

After listening carefully, it turned out that it was Gu Huaining and his three brothers and sisters who were talking and laughing together. Looking at the scene, it was obvious that the four of them must have made an appointment to come together to visit.

"Mom, Dad, Huaining is here! Huaining is so happy to be here with my brothers, sisters, and sister to have dinner with Mom and Dad today!"

From afar, the clear and melodious voice of a child can be heard, as if a happy little bird is flying in the sky, eager to throw itself into the warm embrace of its parents.

After a long time, the owner of the voice finally appeared in front of everyone. Lin Qingxue and Gu Jinxuan looked closely and saw that it turned out to be four cute children jumping towards the house.

They are like flowers blooming in spring, full of vitality and energy. Every child has a bright smile on his face, which makes people feel happy.

Walking in front was a little girl in a pink dress with two playful pigtails. Her big eyes were twinkling, as bright and charming as the twinkling stars in the night sky.

Following closely behind were three slightly older children. One of them was a boy wearing a blue gown, with an elegant temperament; another girl was wearing a green silk skirt, fresh and refined; the last little girl was also dressed in gorgeous clothes, and looked very smart and cute.

Behind these four children followed a group of well-trained maids who carefully protected their little masters, fearing that the children would accidentally fall or bump into something.

"Come and sit down now that you're here." Seeing the four children walking into the house one after another, Lin Qingxue was filled with joy and instinctively stood up to greet them.

However, just as she was about to stand up, Gu Jinxuan beside her gently grabbed her hand. He smiled and shook his head at Lin Qingxue, indicating that she didn't need to do so.

So Lin Qingxue had to give up and sat back in her chair, still looking at the children gently.

"Huaiyuan and Huaining have already taken several days off. They have to go back to school tomorrow. As for our Xiaoya and Xiaowan, should they continue studying at the academy or come back to the mansion to be taught by the teacher we invited? After all, we have a teacher specially invited to come here to teach the children."

Gu Jinxuan was seen leaning lazily on the couch, one hand casually playing with Lin Qingxue's soft and boneless little hand. He was too lazy to even raise his head, and spoke lightly.

Ever since he married the beautiful Lin Qingxue, he tasted the sweetness of marriage for the first time, and his heart and eyes were full of his wife. He seemed to be a little unconcerned about his children's schooling.

Lin Qingxue pursed her lips slightly and didn't answer immediately. She first turned to look at Gu Xiaoya and Gu Xiaowan beside her, her eyes revealing a hint of inquiry. Just as she was about to say something, the impatient Gu Huaining beside her beat her to the punch.

"Daddy, just let my older sister and younger sister go home and study with us! They don't need to go to the academy!"

Gu Huaining blinked his big watery eyes, looked at Gu Jinxuan expectantly, and expressed his thoughts eagerly.

"That's right, Daddy! Let's let both sisters come to our house for classes! Usually, Huaining is the only sister who accompanies us to class. Now that we have two more sisters, of course our family should go to class together!"

Gu Huaiyuan also hurriedly agreed with his sister's words, his little face full of excitement. He was so happy at the thought of having two more sisters in the future.

Seeing her children so enthusiastically inviting the two sisters to study together at home, Lin Qingxue no longer hesitated and asked Gu Xiaoya and Gu Xiaowan with a smile, "Xiaoya, Xiaowan, what do you two think?"

"Mom," a clear and loud voice rang out. Gu Xiaoya blinked her bright eyes, looking at her expectantly, and said crisply, "Mom, we want to go to class with my brother and the others."

As the eldest sister among the two sisters, she naturally had to be the first to express her inner thoughts. Gu Xiaowan, who was standing aside, seemed a little shy. She pursed her lips slightly, but still nodded gently to show her agreement with what her sister said.

Although she was not as outspoken as her sister, the desire in her eyes had not diminished in the slightest. It was obvious that she had a great liking for the siblings Gu Huaining and Gu Huaiyuan.

"Okay, then it's decided. Taking classes at home is a very good option! Tomorrow is the day to visit your parents-in-law. When I get back, I will have a good talk with your fifth uncle and ask him to communicate and coordinate with the college. From now on, the children will be taught at home, and they won't have to go to the college every day."

Lin Qingxue looked at her two precious daughters with a smile. Seeing that they did not show any resistance to staying at home to study, she was naturally very happy and agreed with this decision.

After all, she knew very well that her mother-in-law, Princess Anyang, had a unique vision, and the teacher she hired to teach the children in the mansion must be a man of great learning and talent.

"By the way, Qingxue, there's something I need to tell you. We now have a total of six young masters and young ladies in our mansion. The order of seniority among them has been readjusted and arranged. The oldest is undoubtedly Huaiyuan, followed by Xiaoya, Huairen, Huaining, Xiaowan, and the youngest Huaiyu. Huairen and Huaiyu are my second brother's children. As for this new order, it was ordered by mother herself a few days ago. Moreover, this order in our mansion does not distinguish between men and women."

Gu Jinxuan raised his head slightly, staring at Lin Qingxue intently, and his tone of voice sounded particularly serious. The little ones sitting around heard their father talking about things related to themselves, and they all pricked up their ears and listened carefully, their expressions focused, respectful and cautious.

"Okay, I understand. Tomorrow when we return home, let Huaiyuan and Huaining go with us! As for the day after tomorrow, we can all go to the school together."

Lin Qingxue said with a smile, thinking to herself that she would be returning home tomorrow. When she thought that the Lin family had not yet formally met Gu Huaiyuan and Gu Huaining, the lovely brother and sister, Lin Qingxue decided to take this opportunity to take them with her.

After all, she is now married to Gu Jinxuan, and the existence of these two children is an unignorable and crucial fact.

Moreover, she gets along well with the children and they have deep feelings for each other. It can be said that it is a beautiful two-way relationship.

Especially Huaiyuan, as the future heir to the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion, Lin Qingxue really doesn't want to see his relationship with the Lin family become distant and estranged.

"Well, that's great. Then let's do as you say and go to class the day after tomorrow!"

When Gu Jinxuan saw that Lin Qingxue took the initiative to ask her to let her two children go back home with her, a relieved smile appeared on his face.

He knew very well that his wife's action was out of good intentions, and he also firmly believed that the elders such as the Duke of Protectorate and Princess Anyang would certainly agree and support this.

After all, for children, maintaining family ties is far more important than academic studies. What’s the harm in delaying school for one more day?

The night slowly descended like a thick black curtain, shrouding the entire world in its endless darkness.

As the night grew darker, Nanny Tian and Dongzao carefully carried the steaming hot dinner, gently pushed open the door and walked into the house.

They were holding an exquisitely carved food box in their hands. As soon as the box was opened, an enticing aroma filled the air.

Then, one after another, light and refreshing dishes with excellent color, aroma and taste were placed on the rosewood table that exuded an elegant sandalwood scent.

Each of these dishes is meticulously prepared. Among them is a dish of stir-fried seasonal vegetables that is as green and translucent as emerald greens, with each leaf looking like a work of art meticulously crafted by nature; there is also a bowl of fresh and smooth lotus egg custard, with a delicate taste that leaves one with an endless aftertaste; and there is also a pot of crucian carp and tofu soup with a light and refreshing fragrance, the milky white broth is rich and delicious, making one salivate.

"Princess Consort, young masters and ladies, please come and taste my cooking," said Nanny Tian, ​​with a kind smile on her face, as she slowly stepped aside.

Due to time constraints, she could only hurriedly prepare a few relatively simple and light dishes, but even so, each dish was the result of her careful cooking.

The children quickly gathered around the table like a group of cheerful little birds. They opened their eyes wide and stared at the table full of delicious food, their eyes flashing with excitement that was hard to conceal.

Gu Huaining, who was a little older, couldn't wait to reach out, grabbed the chopsticks, and then accurately picked up a piece of egg foo young and put it into his mouth.

He exclaimed, "Wow, this is so delicious! Aunt Tian, ​​your cooking skills are simply amazing!"

After saying that, he started to eat voraciously, and soon his face was filled with a look of happiness and satisfaction.

Lin Qingxue, with a gentle smile on her face, methodically served each child a bowl of fragrant crucian carp soup, and gently reminded them, "Eat slowly, children, and be sure not to burn yourself."

Her voice was as gentle as a spring breeze, making the children feel particularly warm and at ease. Gu Jinxuan sat there quietly, looking at the picture full of warmth and joy in front of him, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.

Finally, he picked up his chopsticks and joined in this lively dinner feast.

For a moment, the house was filled with laughter and the family was enjoying this rare and wonderful time happily.

The moonlight is like clear flowing water, quietly pouring into the quiet courtyard, as if gently covering all things in the world with a layer of silver gauze as thin as a cicada's wing.

After dinner, a group of innocent and lovely children stayed in the house for a while, sitting obediently and listening to the conversation between Lin Qingxue and Gu Jinxuan about returning home tomorrow.

"Qingxue, I have already made proper arrangements for your return home. You don't need to worry about it," Gu Jinxuan leaned over slightly, gently holding Lin Qingxue's fair and delicate hand, and said this in a gentle and affectionate tone.

Lin Qingxue, like a docile kitten, gently leaned on Gu Jinxuan's broad and solid shoulders. Her cherry lips parted slightly, and a voice as sweet as a yellow oriole singing in a valley uttered, "With you here, I feel safe and secure. However, when I think about returning to my parents' home and having to be treated as a guest, I can't help but feel a little uncomfortable."

As she said this, a hint of melancholy flashed in her beautiful eyes.
