"Sister, I actually didn’t tell you the truth." The little guy bit his lip and glanced at Yang Ruxin, "My name isn’t Dabao, and my sister’s isn’t Xiaobao... I’m sorry..."
Yang Ruxin suddenly smiled, "You don’t need to apologize for that."
The little guy was taken aback.
"This shows that you’re very cautious," Yang Ruxin came over and patted the little guy on the head, "After all, we were strangers before, being cautious around strangers is not wrong, you did well. You take good care of your sister too, you are a responsible young man."
The little guy suddenly smiled, and his earlier unease vanished in an instant.
"Well, now let’s formally get to know each other." Yang Ruxin took the little guy’s hand, "My name is Yang Ruxin, I live in Dapu East Village."
"My name is Zhou Xiao, I’m seven years old, my sister’s name is Zhou Ying, and she will be four years old next month." The little guy seemed a bit embarrassed, but he didn’t pull his hand away; instead, he gripped Yang Ruxin’s hand firmly, "I’ll call you Sister Ruxin, okay?"
"Whatever you like, now, let’s go home." Yang Ruxin said and reached out to pick up Zhou Xiao, but Gu Yao quickly stepped in and pulled her away.
Yang Ruxin frowned.
Gu Yao thought to himself that the other was a seven-year-old boy, how could he be so close to his sister-in-law? Holding hands was one thing, but hugging was absolutely out of the question. Of course, he wouldn’t admit his true motives; instead, he put on a serious face, "Big brother also instructed that we should say they are distant relatives of the Gu Family. Otherwise, if you rashly take two strangers back, there might be trouble at the old Yang Family house," he said, glancing at the little boy, "Big brother will ask Master Qi to help investigate the boy’s background."
Yang Ruxin first frowned, but then nodded her head in agreement, "Gu Brother thought things through." She then called Zhou Xiao over and explained the recent decision to him.
Zhou Xiao immediately looked cautiously at Gu Yao, then with a disappointed expression asked, "Sister, are you not wanting us anymore?"
"What do you mean by ’not wanting you’?" Yang Ruxin raised her hand to rub his head, "It’s just what we’ll say to others. Otherwise, my grandparents and my aunts and uncles would definitely make a fuss..."
"Big sister doesn’t want to leave us behind?" The little guy suddenly felt happy.
"Don’t worry, you’ll still live with me." Yang Ruxin smiled, "And remember, don’t tell others your real names. The names Dabao and Xiaobao are good enough." Although the child had faced misfortune, the manner he exhibited was definitely not something that could be taught by a humble family, so she dared to determine that this child must come from a big family. To avoid unnecessary trouble, it was better to be cautious.
"I understand," Zhou Xiao brightened up upon hearing that Yang Ruxin didn’t want to leave them.
At that moment, Doctor Wang also came out with his medicine chest, everyone got on the carriage, and Uncle Kuang flicked the whip, and the carriage headed towards the village.
The little girl woke up halfway there, and upon opening her eyes she met Yang Ruxin’s gaze, was startled for a moment, and then suddenly broke into a smile showing off several white baby teeth, "Sister Fairy... "
"Little girl has a good eye, you also think sister is pretty, don’t you?" Yang Ruxin looked at those round grape-like eyes, similar to Sini’s, and felt her maternal instinct overflow, her heart melting, she couldn’t help but touch the little face, "Xiaobao is also very pretty..."
