With furrowed brows, Gu Yunshen looked at Gu Qingyao.

Yao Yao was already sixteen and engaged now and it would not be good if she still did not work in the field for autumn harvest.

But he could not bear to!

Gu Yunshuang understood the look in Gu Yunshen’s eyes immediately. Looking at her fair and dainty niece, Gu Yunshuang, too, could not bear to let such a gorgeous young lady work in the field.

Gu Yunshuang smiled. “Let Yao Yao go then! In the countryside, she is supposed to work in the field already at this age. But look how fair Yao Yao is. She will become tan in no time if she goes to the field. Furthermore, the work points from Yao Yao’s farm work is definitely lesser than mine as she has never done it before.

“Although she also needs to help out at Third Brother’s place, it’s still better than working in the sun. That place is in the provincial capital and Yao Yao can also gain new experience and knowledge if she goes. It’s better for me to stay at home to earn work points.”

She truly wanted to stay at home – the food that she brought back was already little and she still had Ting Ting with her. In this period of time, it could be said that the food she had were all from her natal home. If she left again this time, she would really be completely relying on her natal family to raise her.

The only person in the house who could do strong labor was Gu Yunshen and this was not feasible. It was better for her to stay at home to do farm work.

After giving it some thought, Gu Qingyao did actually hope to go too.

The provincial capital!

It was much more prosperous than their town and market. It should be easier to trade supplies there, shouldn’t it?

The final decision was for Gu Qingyao to go.

Gu Qingyao immediately made the preparations. Before she left, she wrote a letter to Mo Beihan to tell him she went to the provincial capital.

When she reached the provincial capital by train, her third cousin, Gu Jinlin, was at the train station ready to pick her up.

“Yao Yao!”

From afar, Gu Jinlin was beaming while waving at her.

Her family had already sent a telegram before she came, thus Third Cousin knew that she would be here today.

Gu Jinlin quickly came to help Gu Qingyao with her luggage the moment he spotted her. “You must be tired from the journey, right? Come, I’ll take you to a meal.”

Gu Qingyao originally thought that he wanted to bring her home to eat! In the end, this fellow actually brought her to the state-run restaurant.

He ordered braised fish, egg soup, stir-fried bean sprouts, white rice, scallion packets and buns. Some were packed for takeaway.

The dishes amounted to three yuan.

With the packed food in his hands, Gu Jinlin made Gu Qingyao sit on his bicycle as he rode back with her.

Third Uncle’s family lived in a building and their house was about seventy square meters. There was limited housing in this age and this was already considered a pretty good house.

Although, it was truly tiny to the current Gu Qingyao.

Gu Qingyao led Gu Jinlin into the house and shouted with a smile. “Mother, Little Seven, Little Eight, your elder sister is here!”

Two little cannonballs rushed out of the room immediately and into Gu Qingyao’s arms.

“Sister!”

Shocked by the two fellows, Gu Qingyao stumbled a few steps backward before steadying herself. “Ah! You two grew taller again!”

“Hehe!” The two little fellows who looked extremely similar hugged Gu Qingyao and smiled at her.

Gu Qingyao patted their heads. “I brought good food for you two. I’ll bring it out later. You all haven’t eaten, right? Go and eat first.”

Then, Third Aunt’s voice could be heard from the room. “Yao Yao is here! The food supplies are in the kitchen. We indeed haven’t eaten! Let your third cousin bring you to the kitchen. You can just cook anything.”

“Mother, I brought food from the state-run restaurant so there’s no need to cook. Yao Yao just arrived. How would she have the energy to cook!”
