Gu Shouxin turned around when he heard the noise. He saw it was Gu Xin and asked with a smile, “Why don’t you sleep a little longer, Xin Xin?”

Gu Xin walked out of the door and went down a few steps. She walked up to Gu Shouxin and said, “Dad, I’m used to waking up at this time. Dad, the chili has grown out!”

Gu Xin was a little hesitant. Should she tell Gu Shouxin about her jade fish and jade bead?

But Little Fish had said that she couldn’t tell anyone.

“Yeah! The chili has grown!” Gu Shouxin looked at the chili in the ground.

“Dad, I’ll get Mom and Sister to wake up.” Gu Xin turned around and ran back.

She still didn’t want to tell her father, so she had to leave for a while. Otherwise, her father would definitely see that she was lying.

Gu Shouxin felt that Gu Xin’s reaction was very normal and didn’t suspect anything.

He had planned to call Cai Xiaolian to wake her up, but when he was lost in thought, Gu Xin came out.

The family of four stood next to the vegetable field again. Except for Gu Xin, the other three were a little confused.

Could it be that this was the Golden Finger of their family of three? The same Golden Finger?

“Do you want to sell this chili along with the others?” Gu Shouxin was the first to speak.

“No!” Gu Nian said without hesitation, “Dad, with this chili, I can cook a lot of delicious food. Dad, just bring the cucumber and eggplant. Leave the rest to me.”

“Yes, I believe in Nian Nian.” Cai Xiaolian agreed.

“Okay! Then I’ll go to the old house to borrow the ox-cart first. I made a deal with Dad and Mom the day before yesterday.” Gu Shouxin didn’t care about the money from selling the vegetables.

After saying that, he left the house.

“Xin Xin, come, Mom will tie up your hair. We’ll collect the chili after breakfast and let your sister make delicious food for you.” Cai Xiaolian took Gu Xin to comb her hair.

She didn’t think too much about it. She couldn’t think of anything even if she thought too much about it.

Gu Nian did the same as her. She went back to her room to tidy up, then washed up and made breakfast.

For breakfast, she boiled rice porridge, cooked a sweet and sour cucumber, fried a cabbage, and boiled two eggs each.

Gu Shouxin came back to eat breakfast and loaded baskets of eggplants and cucumbers onto the ox-cart. Previously, he had told the old mansion to borrow the cart to go to Yu Zhou Capital to visit his former teacher and ask him for advice on where he should start studying. Of course, these were all excuses.

Although Grandma Gu and Grandpa Gu didn’t really believe that he had changed, they were willing to give him a chance.

Anyway, the ox didn’t need to till the ground in winter. They could just lend it to their son.

“9,000 years old. You must remember that there are fewer cucumbers and eggplants in this season. The price can’t be lower. It has to be higher than usual. Also, the raincoats and bamboo hats here. What if it rains? Nian Nian just boiled eggs. Take them with you. You can still fill your stomach if you’re hungry on the way,” Cai Xiaolian whispered at the door.

“Okay.” Gu Shouxin listened patiently and then replied.

“Dad, come back soon!” Gu Nian held Gu Xin’s hand as they walked out and spoke with a smile.

“Dad, I have two copper coins for you. Grandpa gave them to me and said that I could buy sweets and steamed buns to eat.” Gu Xin spread out her small hands and two copper coins appeared.

She had hidden them away secretly. In the past, her grandparents in the old mansion would give her five cents on her birthday and New Year’s Eve, but Gu Nian would always snatch them away. She had been saving these for years.

“Thank you, Xin Xin! I’ll buy you sweets and buns when I come back!” Gu Shouxin took his daughter’s copper coins.

He liked the feeling of being cared for. So this was what it was like to have a wife and daughters!
