Chapter 275: The Cousin of "Fuwa" 3
Chapter 275: The Cousin of "Fuwa" 3
The fifth prince asked Gu Xi what her name was.
Gu Xi didn't even think about it and the word "Gu Qian" popped out of his mouth.
When Zhao Yue'er, who was beside her, heard Gu Xi speak, she immediately covered her mouth and held her away.
Gu Zhi, who was packing his things, became even more panicked. After packing the money he had obtained, he staggered down the mountain with Zhao Yue'er and her mother, completely forgetting the idea of throwing the Fifth Prince to a farther place.
However, within just one day, the Fifth Prince, who was freezing to death, was found by soldiers who went up the mountain to search and was taken back.
The first thing he did after waking up was to tell his story and punish the people who stole his things and stripped his clothes.
In this way, the unlucky original owner's family took the blame for Gu Zhi's family.
"Tuanzi, why did Gu Xi say the original owner's name?" Gu Qian asked puzzledly.
Normally, in this situation, the person will either not speak or will say his or her own name or nickname, but will never say anyone else's name.
If it was intentional, then the true nature of this Gu Xi would be questionable. She was either reborn or traveled through time, and she had a strong hostility towards the original owner and wanted to kill her.
If it wasn't intentional... Gu Qian couldn't think of why a child would blurt out someone else's name when someone asked her name if it wasn't intentional.
"Host, this is a coincidence. Because Gu Xi's family never calls her by her full name, most of the time they call her Fuwa or Nannan. The adults also don't call each other by their full names, so the names that appear most often in their family are yours and your parents'."
"Is that why?"
"Yes, and they often talk about the original owner in front of Gu Xi. Most of the time they praise Gu Xi and belittle the original owner. Over time, she remembered the original owner's name."
"Alas, the original owner's family was really wronged!"
"Yes!"
"What is the original owner's wish?"
"The original owner just hoped that their family could live in peace,"
"No revenge or anything?"
"Host, you can give it to me for free! I'm here anyway."
"Okay, okay, I get it, let's go."
The next second, Gu Qian woke up on a bed that couldn't be any harder.
She sat up, looking at her own tiny hands and feet, and said with emotion: It's been a long time since I was this small...
Shifting his gaze from himself to the inside of the house, Gu Qian found that the house was indeed quite shabby.
Although it is called a house, it actually feels like a small room temporarily built with wood, which is only big enough to accommodate a wooden bed, a table and two cabinets.
Thinking that he might need to stay in this place for a long time in the future, Gu Qian sighed deeply in his heart.
No, I must help improve my family’s life, otherwise how can we live?
Her space is filled with young ginseng, ganoderma lucidum and other precious medicinal materials. If she takes out any one of them and sells it, it would be enough to change her family's life.
But she just needed to find a suitable time and go up the mountain with her father to take it out.
"Tuanzi, what time is it now? At what point in time?"
"Host, you have to be careful. Tomorrow is the time when Gu Zhi and his men will go up the mountain and meet the Fifth Prince. You can't let them use you as a scapegoat again."
"Tomorrow? So soon! Why is the time so close this time?"
"This is always random. I can only say that you, the host, are not very lucky, hehe."
"roll!"
Tomorrow we will reach a crucial plot point...
Go and rescue the fifth prince before them?
No!
In this way, Gu Zhi, Zhao Yue'er and Gu Xi will not get the punishment they deserve, and they should bear the same consequences as the original owner's family did in the end!
If that’s the case… then we can only save the Fifth Prince after them.
There is only one problem at this step, that is, whether the fifth prince will kill all those who know about this matter in order to save his face.
Although the fifth prince is still a child, Gu Qian has no confidence in the current imperial power. What if they are so perverted and do not allow ordinary people to see the royal family in a miserable state and without clothes?
But there seemed to be no better way. After thinking about it, Gu Qian decided to do this.
Even if the worst outcome is the case, Gu Qian is confident that he can get out of the predicament and survive with his family.
"Grumpy"
"I'm so hungry!" Gu Qian heard her stomach growling. She covered her stomach and got out of bed to find something to eat, but found that her short legs couldn't reach the ground.
At this moment, Li Xiuqin happened to push the door in from outside.
"Oh, my dear, what's wrong?" She walked quickly towards Gu Qian, picked up Gu Qian and put him back on the bed.
"Mom, I'm hungry..." Gu Qian said, touching her empty stomach.
Seeing her daughter so cute, Li Xiuqin smiled softly and said gently, "Okay, I'll get you something to eat right away."
After saying that, she turned and went to the kitchen.
After a while, Li Xiuqin came in with a bowl of steaming...rice porridge.
When Gu Qian smelled the fragrance, her eyes lit up.
However, when she discovered what was inside, her originally bright eyes dimmed a little.
Forget it, I'll just have to make do with it now. What she eats is already the best in their family.
Li Xiuqin sat by the bed, carefully blew cool the porridge in the spoon, and fed it to Gu Qian.
Gu Qian was eating while thinking about tomorrow's plans.
"Mom, I just had a dream."
"What did you dream about?" Li Xiuqin said, patting Gu Qian's back gently.
"I dreamed that I caught a small branch that could run in the back hills, and my father sold it for a lot of money."
"Really? Then Qianqian is really amazing." Li Xiuqin didn't take it seriously and thought it was just childish nonsense.
"Mom, I'm telling the truth!"
Looking at Gu Qian's stubborn face, Li Xiuqin quickly smiled and coaxed her, "Yes, yes, of course mother believes Qianqian!"
"Then mom, can you and dad take me to the back mountain tomorrow? I want to catch some small branches that can run."
"This..." Li Xiuqin was a little hesitant. Qianqian had never been to the back mountain since she was a child. What if she ran into something and got scared?
Besides, Brother Yong has to go to the fields early in the morning and go to the town to sell game and food. He must be very tired when he comes back. If he has to accompany her and Qianqian to the back mountain...
"Qianqian, your father has a lot of things to do tomorrow. The back mountain is very dangerous. We can't do it without him. Why don't we change another day?"
"No, no, in my dream I went there tomorrow, so I will go there tomorrow. I want to catch the small branches that can run! Mom~" Gu Qian took Li Xiuqin's hand and started to act like a spoiled child.
Faced with Gu Qian's coquettishness, Li Xiuqin felt helpless, but she soon gave in.
She knew Qianqian had always been very sensible and never made unreasonable demands. This time, she made a rare request and she really couldn't bear to refuse.
