Old Madam Zhang, Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Qingyao were all frightened. They did not dare to say anymore and or offend Gu Qingyao any further. Meanwhile, Old Zhang and his two sons had already moved all of Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing’s belongings onto the ox cart.
This ox cart was actually a hand cart. Wang Mingtao certainly would not lend the brigade’s ox cart to the Zhang family at this point.
So the Zhang family pulled the cart themselves.
When everything was packed, Old Madam Zhang and Zhang Xiaohui did not dare to kick up a fuss anymore. They hurriedly left with everyone else.
They did not even bother with the meat in the kitchen.
Gu Qingyao smugly raised her brows and proudly snorted, “See how easily I can deal with you?”
“Pfft…” Mo Beihan let out a laugh.
Gu Qingyao: “…”
She turned to look at Mo Beihan. Only then did she wonder if she had revealed too much about herself?
When she glanced at her third elder brother and father, she realized they were both staring at her unblinkingly…
Er…
“Fa-Father…” For a moment, Gu Qingyao did not know how to explain herself. Oh no, she had revealed too much!
But Gu Yunshen laughed when he saw his younger daughter’s chagrined expression. “That was quite a good performance. Why don’t you go and cook! Your grandparents are deeply upset. You’d better make something nice for them to improve their health.”
Gu Conghua, “…”
Wen Ruyu, “…”
“By the way, is there any wine? I’m so sad I got a divorce today. I need a drink to drown my sorrows!”
Gu Jinlin: “…”
Mo Beihan: “…”
Gu Qingyao was delighted. “Great!” She joyfully turned and entered the kitchen. Mo Beihan, who was watching from the sidelines, almost laughed out loud.
He hurriedly followed her into the kitchen to help his future wife.
Gu Jinlin was left alone in the courtyard. He looked at the main room, then at the kitchen. Who am I? Where am I?
The sound of chopping rang out from the kitchen. Gu Jinlin quietly went into the kitchen and looked at the young girl busying herself by the table. It was her, no doubt about it!
His gentle and obedient younger cousin!
“Cousin…”
Gu Qingyao: “Ah?”
Gu Jinlin bent down and peered at her. “Have you switched places with someone else?”
Gu Qingyao said, “Don’t you think I’m adorable now?”
As she spoke, Gu Qingyao winked at him in a deliberately cheeky manner.
Gu Jinlin: “…”
Gu Qingyao laughed. “Third Elder Brother, don’t you think I was amazing just now? They always bullied me in the past. Today was great! I must celebrate this properly. Take a look and tell me if there’s enough for you. What else do you want to eat?”
When he heard that, Gu Jinlin glanced at the table. He realized that there were chicken, fish, meat and eggs on the table. His eyes grew wide.
“My goodness! Younger sister, have you struck it rich?”
So much meat!
Gu Qingyao laughed. “I made all this specially for you. Oh, my father is in a bad mood today and wants to have a drink to drown his sorrows. Have a drink with him later.”
Gu Jinlin: “…”
Drown his sorrows? This looked like a celebration!
Gu Jinlin was delighted and charmed by his lively and intelligent younger cousin. His attention was quickly drawn to the food on the table.
He had not eaten such nice things for a long time!
It was getting dark and it started to snow again. The north wind howled and everyone huddled in their houses. A bitterly cold wind was blowing outside. But the kitchen of the Gu house was bustling, and the flames shot towards the sky!
Gu Jinlin took a deep breath, breathing in the fragrance in the air. “Little sister, your cooking is so good. It smells wonderful. Is it ready yet?”
