Rebirth: Divine Doctor, Sweet Wife

Gu Qingyao looked at him and nodded. “I understand!”

He had his own affairs to deal with. He could not remain in his hometown any longer to keep her company. This era would last a few more years, and in this interval, they must make ample preparation so that they could continue to have a stable life.

The two of them returned just as Gu Jinlin was coming home. When he saw them return, Gu Jinlin looked rather resentfully at his younger cousin!

Gu Qingyao: “…”

Mo Beihan rubbed his nose and said with a smile, “Go home! I’m off!”

Before he left, Gu Qingyao stuffed a brown paper bag in his hand. “There are some small cakes in there. Bring them back for the two children.”

In these times, children did not have many snacks. The bag contained a few small cakes that were filled with cream. The children would certainly like them.

Mo Beihan clutched the object in his hand and smiled warmly. “Alright. It’s cold out here, hurry up and go home!”

“Mhm!”

Gu Qingyao walked back with Gu Jinlin by her side. “What did you give that fellow just now?”

When Gu Jinlin thought of his younger cousin getting engaged to that fellow the day after tomorrow, he felt out of sorts.

Gu Qingyao smiled and pulled Gu Jinlin into her room. She took out another small paper bag and opened it. Inside was a small slice of cream cake.

“For you!”

Gu Jinlin was shocked!

Ca-cake?

He had only seen such things in the departmental stores in the city. The price was exorbitant and they could not bear to eat such things.

He had once bought two slices from the city for this young cousin, but that was many years ago.

The one in front of him was somewhat different from those in the departmental store, but he could tell that it was cake!

A cream cake!

“Where did you get this from?”

Gu Qingyao said bluntly, “Are you going to eat it or not?”

Gu Jinlin hurriedly replied, “No, you eat it. You have it! Young girls like you enjoy things like that.”

Gu Qingyao looked at her elder cousin. He was unable to stop staring at the cake, but continued to insist that she eat it. She smiled warmly and stuffed it straight into Gu Jinlin’s mouth.

“Hurry up and eat it, I have some more!”

Er…

Then she pushed Gu Jinlin out. “I’m going to bed!”

Piak!

The door slammed shut!

Gu Jinlin: “…”

The next day, everyone from the Gu family returned.

Gu Qingyao was surprised that her eldest uncle’s entire family returned too.

Eldest Uncle’s family lived very far away. Even if they started their journey immediately after receiving the telegram, they would not be able to arrive on the eighth.

Actually, when Gu Yunshen sent the telegrams, he told everyone that it would be great if they could make the trip back. It was the new year and they could take the opportunity to visit the older folks.

They did not have to return by the ninth. Even if they came a few days later, it would be good if the family got to see each other.

But they had not expected Eldest Uncle’s entire family to return.

They must have boarded the train before the start of the new year.

Her eldest uncle’s name was Gu Yunjing, her eldest aunt’s name was Fang Ling, her eldest cousin’s name was Gu Jinye, and his two younger brothers were Gu Jinrui and Gu Jinzhi.

Her second uncle’s family also lived quite far away, so only her fourth older cousin, Gu Jinfeng, made the trip back.

He had also started his journey before the new year. In these times, trains moved slowly. He had returned to his hometown to visit the older folks.

Third Uncle lived in the city, and it was much more convenient for them. Only her fifth older cousin, Gu Jinxuan, was unable to take leave to come back.

Third Uncle brought Third Aunt and her two young cousins.

The house was bustling with so many people!

Eldest Uncle’s position was the highest among all of them. No one had expected him to return.

He actually had not returned to his hometown for more than six years. When they saw Eldest Uncle, Gu Conghua and Wen Ruyu’s eyes reddened.

The children all went out to play while the adults went into the house to chat.

“Eldest Brother, how did you find time to come back?” Gu Conghua asked.

Gu Yunjing looked at everyone and said solemnly, “I heard from Beihan that something was about to happen. So I decided to bring the two children back in advance.”
