Gu Nian thought, I wonder if Mrs. Wang regrets it; a perfectly good family ended up because of a momentary lapse in her judgment.
Maybe she does regret it, but now the situation is beyond her control.
The Wang Family is unwilling to give up the Silver they’ve obtained, so the main house cannot accept her, and to the Wang Family, she indeed cannot compare with the wealth brought by Silver Coin.
Gu Nian thought that given the current situation, the main house people might blame them too, but unexpectedly, when Lin Shui saw them, he even managed a smile, though it was a bit forced.
"Erhu and Niannian are here, come in and sit, it’s cold outside." Lin Shui, initially squatting in the corner by the gate, stood up when he saw them, his waist noticeably hunched.
Lin Jing’er, holding the baby, turned to look at them, "You’re just in time, come here and help me play with this little guy for a while, I’m exhausted."
Since my sister-in-law left, my brother has been chopping wood every day, and our parents’ health is obviously not good, so taking care of the child has fallen on me.
Erhu has no feeling toward taking care of children, so Gu Nian ran over, grabbed the chubby kid’s little paw, and asked, "Sis, does he have a name?"
She seemed to have never heard anyone call the baby by name.
"Yes, his name is Mu." Lin Jing’er said, teasing him, "Mu, this is your little aunt, say little aunt..."
"Hey..." Mu kicked his little legs, showing a drooling smile.
Lin Jing’er disdainfully wiped his drool, saying, "This kid is teething these days, drooling non-stop, it’s so dirty." The source of thɪs content is 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹⟡𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮⟡𝙣𝙚𝙩
Gu Nian didn’t mind, smiling as she grabbed his palm and started playing hide and seek with him, "Jing’er sis, when will he start talking and walking?"
"Sometimes he blurts out words now, but not often or clearly, he can stand but is afraid to walk."
As she spoke, Lin Jing’er stepped back a few steps, placing Mu down to stand, and quickly stepping away.
Without anyone supporting him, Mu stood there not daring to move, his mouth open, looking pitifully at Gu Nian, hoping for someone to come support him.
Gu Nian teased him, "Mu, come to your little aunt, and little aunt will give you candy!"
Gu Nian shook her little fist in front of him, with nothing actually inside.
Mu didn’t know if he understood, but after two cries, seeing no one coming to support him, he hesitantly moved his little feet. After taking one step, his body wobbled, and he immediately stood still, not daring to move.
Gu Nian’s eyes lit up, as she moved closer with open arms, coaxing, "Come on over, walk over, and little aunt will give you candy..."
Unexpectedly, Mu pursed his lips, took quick steps, and directly threw himself into her arms.
"Ah, ah... candy..." Mu struggled to grab Gu Nian’s fist, and surprisingly, for such a small kid, he was quite strong.
Gu Nian suddenly opened her hand, making a surprised face at him, "Oh no, there’s no candy, what do we do now?"
Lin Jing’er said helplessly, "This kid is such a glutton..."
Before she finished speaking, there was a loud wail, and Gu Nian successfully made the kid cry.
"Oh dear, little aunt was wrong, little aunt will give you candy now, don’t cry anymore." Gu Nian quickly took out an untouched candy from her pocket, unwrapped it, and let him taste it with two fingers, which finally stopped his crying.
