205 What Do You Think of Uncle Nine?
Nine nodded. “Is my leg hurt badly?”
“It might recover if you recuperate in peace. You’ve just woken up, and your body is still very weak. It’s not suitable for you to eat today, so you should continue to sleep and rest. I’ll boil some medicine and rice soup for you tomorrow morning to help you recover,” Gu Qingxue said.
“Thank you.” Nine’s body was still extremely weak. After he said this, his body collapsed as if it could not hold on any longer, and he soon fell into a deep sleep.
Gu Qingxue called the three children to leave the room and closed the door so that Nine could rest in peace.
“You guys can play in the courtyard. Don’t wake up Uncle Nine.” After Gu Qingxue told the three children, she went back to her room to continue researching the antidote for Rong Zhan.
Seeing Gu Qingxue leave, Lingbao quickly pulled the arms of his two brothers and sat down.
Looking at his two brothers with a big smile, Lingbao asked curiously, “Big Brother, second brother, what do you think of Uncle Nine?”
“He lost his memory and has no home to return to. He is indeed a little pitiful.” Gu Lin put himself in their shoes and thought for a while. He felt that if he forgot his family and friends in the future, he would definitely be very sad.
“That’s not what I meant! I meant what’s your impression of him? Do you think he’s a good person?” Lingbao continued to ask excitedly.
Dumby had a bad premonition, “Little sister, don’t tell me you want him to be our father?!”
“Shh! Why are you speaking so loudly? What if mother hears you?” Lingbao quickly covered Dumby’s mouth.
Gu Lin quietly looked at his siblings and asked, “What did the two of you do behind my back?”
When Lingbao saw this, she quickly went forward and held onto Gu Lin’s arm and shook it gently, “Big brother, don’t be so fierce. We don’t have any bad intentions. We just want a father.”
Gu Lin looked at Dumby and narrowed his eyes in confusion, “You too?”
Dumby quickly shook his head, “I don’t want one.”
“I don’t care! Anyway, I want a father. Big brother, look, everyone else has a father, but we don’t. I want a father too.” Lingbao pouted, as she spoke, her eyes were already red. She looked as if she would cry out immediately if the two brothers dared not agree.
Gu Lin immediately surrendered. He had always been principled. He would only agree to his sister’s request unconditionally when he was facing her, “Alright, as long as mother agrees, it doesn’t matter who you want to make a father.”
Lingbao’s eyes were filled with joy. She excitedly hugged Gu Lin’s neck and kissed his cheek. “Big brother is so good. I like big brother the most!”
Dumby stood silently at the side and watched. For a moment, he did not know which one to be envious of. “It’s not up to us to decide whether to be a father or not. What if Uncle Nine doesn’t like our mother?”
“It’s said that love grows with time. We’ll wait a few days and see. When Uncle Nine likes mother, we’ll bring up the idea of letting him be our father,” Gu Lin said after some thought.
Dumby and Lingbao both felt that what big brother said made sense.
First of all, there was no one in the world who would not like their mother.
Therefore, the only thing they could do was wait. After Uncle Nine liked their mother, they could ask Uncle Nine about his thoughts!
It was a good opportunity for them to take advantage of this period of time to test Uncle Nine.
The three children hit it off and quietly waited for the opportunity.
