Chapter 1 Arriving at Cuizhu Mountain, Dong Qinyan's attachment
After leaving the valley, the sky has become completely dark. On summer nights, you can see the sky full of stars, which is so bright that it is eye-catching. Gu Shuixiu looks up at the sky from time to time, and then looks at the road beneath her feet, and her thoughts spread.
"Madam, let's take a boat across the river. It's not safe to walk on the bridge at night." When he arrived by the river, Dong Yi frowned and suggested that it would be fine if it was during the day. Even if it fell down, it would be convenient to find someone. However, there are too many unknown situations at night, so it's better to be cautious.
Gu Shuixiu nodded without comment. There was no difference between crossing the bridge and boarding a boat for her.
Dong Yi moved all the things to the boat, and sent them all the way, but it has not been much higher. Gu Shuixiu can take a boat to cross the river with these local specialties. As for the donkey cart, it depends on Dong Yi who wants to go there again, or let the Zuo family go first, and then go and take them if necessary in the future.
The two of them had been busy for a day. When they returned to Cuizhu Mountain, the house was already quiet, and only Cuifu was still scrubbing in the kitchen. When they saw Gu Shuixiu coming back tired, they were surprised and asked in surprise: "Why is Madam coming back at this time? I didn't listen to your instructions in advance. I will make food for you now."
Gu Shuixiu nodded casually and said, "Prepare a copy for Dong Yi, he hasn't eaten yet when he sent me back! Where are the children? Are they all asleep at this time?"
Gu Shuixiu looked at the sky. Although it was pitch black, this point was just around seven o'clock now. They used to lie down after eight o'clock, and it was too early to go to bed!
Cuifu chuckled and said, "Madam, the young masters have made great efforts. Now it is summer. The house on the bamboo forest is relatively cool. The young master almost lives there directly. Even the third master followed him. Mr. Shen began to enlighten him. There are many people there, and the third master can stay. During this period, they came to have dinner at dusk, and then brought some snacks back to the bamboo forest and lived there directly."
Gu Shuixiu knew that the houses in Zhulin were fully equipped, with kitchens and bathrooms, but the kitchen was generally not used, and the bathroom could be used for washing and washing, so she was willing to run here often.
Gu Shuixiu was still thinking, Cuifu pondered: "Madam, do you want me to invite the young master and the others to come? The young masters have been thinking about when you will come back, and they still miss you. If they let them know that you are back now, they will definitely be happy."
Gu Shuixiu smiled. After hearing Cuifu's words, she was not unhappy. She just... "Forget it! The children will have to study tomorrow. Now I will tell them to come back. Everyone should stop sleeping tonight. Let them have a good rest. By the way, where is Qinyan? Where is the child now?"
Cuifu lowered her voice and said slowly: "Madam, the lady lives in the house now. The young master originally wanted to take her to the bamboo forest, which was cool, but the young lady didn't like it, or the young masters couldn't play with her during the day. She didn't want to go there for two days. When she returned to the house, the younger aunt and Miss Qingqing could still be a companion for her to make her happy and lively."
Gu Shuixiu wanted to laugh when she heard this. Her daughter looked like she was not an ordinary baby, but she was even bored. How old is she! Since the child is in the house, Gu Shuixiu planned to go and see the child directly.
Cuifu was still busy cooking, so she had to whisper: "Madam, now Madam Cuixi is here to accompany the lady at night, so you can just go there, I'm going to do it."
Gu Shui's chin was excited and went straight to the inner courtyard. Now Dong's house is full of lanterns. When it gets dark, these lanterns will be lit. Although the light is dim, the light is just right when the rows of lanterns shine.
Walking like this, people don’t have to carry lanterns specifically, which is convenient and worry-free.
Gu Shuixiu arrived at the door in a short while. As soon as she approached the door of the room, she heard Cuixi coaxing the child inside, "Miss, go to bed well..." The voice was weak and long, and she felt sleepy when she heard Gu Shuixiu.
When she gently pushed open the door, Cuixi inside had already heard the movement and looked around. After seeing Gu Shuixiu from afar, Cuixi stood up in surprise and was about to salute Gu Shuixiu. Gu Shuixiu quickly put the essence on her lips and shrewd her, so she didn't have to be too polite, and then she walked slowly closer to the crib.
Dong Qinyan was actually sleepy in Cuixi's soft murmur, and she was about to fall asleep. But at this moment, Cuixi's voice disappeared, which made her feel confused, and her eyes were still half-closed and half-opened until she asked for a familiar smell. She was excited and her eyes suddenly opened, just facing Gu Shuixiu's eyes.
Gu Shuixiu stood and looked at Dong Qinyan motionlessly, and Dong Qinyan also looked at her straight. Just when the two of them were not moving, Dong Qinyan suddenly whispered twice and stretched out her hands to Gu Shuixiu. From her eyes, Gu Shuixiu seemed to see some excitement and joy.
Does such a young child have such emotions? A trace of doubt flashed through Gu Shuixiu's mind, but this doubt has been replaced by joy.
Gu Shuixiu quickly stretched out her hands to pick up Dong Qinyan and stroked her lovely for a while.
Cuixi chuckled from the side and said, "Miss is really missing her. I just saw that the lady is almost asleep. You just got close to her and she noticed it and asked you to hug her!"
Gu Shuixiu was even more moved by Cuixiu's words, and hugged Dong Qinyan and refused to let go, "Cuixi, thank you for your hard work during this period, this child hasn't made trouble!"
Cuixi shook her head, "The lady is very well-behaved, more well-behaved than the young men. Every morning, she will feed her milk and change her diapers, and then carry her to the yard for a walk. She just doesn't leave. She sits in the yard, and the lady can sit for a day. The aunt and Miss Qingqing will also talk to the lady and make her happy. Even Miss Fengying and the others will play with the lady whenever they have time, so the lady has never made any trouble."
"What a good baby 1" Gu Shuixiu couldn't help but kiss Dong Qinyan's forehead.
Dong Qinyan still hugged Gu Shuixiu tightly. Since she was born, this mother has always been with her. Only by her side can Dong Qinyan feel safe. Although this mother sometimes makes her confused or unable to see through her, she knows that her mother loves her, and she has never enjoyed this kind of intimacy between mother and daughter in her previous life.
Although the mother in her previous life loved her as much as she did, in her heart, her character of rules and etiquette had been engraved into her bones. She grew up with the wet nurse since she was born. Her mother would only come here regularly every day to ask about her situation or look at her a few glances, that's all. Therefore, Dong Qinyan cherishes her mother in this life and enjoys this kind of family affection between mother and daughter.
