759 Good genes
Gu shouxin and Cai Xiaolian hadn’t seen their sisters for a long time. From third aunt Gu’s place to the Li family’s house, they had been concerned about them.
Gu Xin and Gu si each held onto Cai Xiaolian’s arm. “Mother (second aunt), do you think I’ve grown taller and fairer?”
Cai Xiaolian said,”Yingluo, yes, yes. Not only have you grown taller and whiter, but you’ve also become much more beautiful!” But why are you so smug today?”
“Huo Yanyu said that we are the most beautiful ladies she has ever seen!” Gu Xin replied.
Gu si: ” Huo Yanyu said that our family has a good environment. She wants to be second uncle and second aunt’s adopted daughter. She also wants to raise her to be as beautiful as us!
Cai Xiaolian was speechless.
That little drama queen?
Gu shouxin thought,”Yingluo, that little drama queen, really knows how to coax people.”
“Second aunt, Huo Yanyu wants to eat niannian’s food,” Gu Hui said with a smile.
“I would like to meet the siblings ‘parents. A couple who can raise such a pair of siblings is really extraordinary!” Gu Nian said.
There was little description of the Huo siblings ‘parents in the book. It seemed that Huo Junhao’s father had always been an official and Huo Junhao was a child prodigy. Hence, the siblings stayed at the ancestral mansion with their grandparents, making it more convenient for Huo Junhao to take the Imperial examinations.
Sigh, dopey Gu’s author wasn’t reliable either. Probably only Lu Zheng knew what the Huo couple were like.
However, judging from Lu Zheng’s attitude towards Huo Junhao, the Huo family must be pretty good.
Gu Xin shook Cai Xiaolian’s arm. mother, mother, I like Huo Yanyu. You and father can come and be my younger sister!
Cai Xiaolian: ” Yingluo has only come to the prefecture for a short while. You’ve already fallen in love with her? ”
Gu Xin nodded her head vigorously, ” that’s right! She made him happy! She’s pretty, not petty, interesting, and smart! She even despised child prodigy Huo. She said that if she participated in the imperial examination, she would definitely be able to tie with father for first place!”
Gu si helped,’that’s right, second aunt. She doesn’t even need to count with her fingers or take notes when sister niannian usually does grid number questions for us. She just needs to use her brain to think and she gets the answer immediately. There were also cross-river questions, blowing out candles, and so on. She really knew the answer immediately!”
“A little faster than Huo Junhao,” Gu Nian added.
Cai Xiaolian was shocked. It was already enough for this family to have one child prodigy, but two at once? His genes were really good.
Gu shouxin had also seen Gu Nian’s questions. He might not be able to react at first, but it was much easier once he was familiar with the routine.
However, the fact that the Huo siblings were able to come up with an accurate answer so quickly despite not having interacted with each other at such a young age, it was not an exaggeration to call them child prodigies.
As for taking in an adopted daughter, their Xinxin liked it. If he was willing and the little girl was good, it didn’t matter if he took her in!
The whole family arrived at the Li family’s house happily.
Every year on li Muyan’s birthday, he would invite the young masters and young ladies he was familiar with in Qing Province to come and play.
Li Muyan had a good friend, surnamed Zhu, named Mingsheng. He was around the same age as li Muyan and was also a handsome young master. He looked especially good when he smiled.
Mrs. Li had once been afraid that her unlucky son and Zhu Mingsheng had the intention of cutting ties and splitting peaches.
Ever since Gu Nian appeared, Mrs. Li had completely dispelled this thought.
Zhu Mingsheng’s family was a shipping merchant. They had dozens of cargo and passenger ships, monopolizing the business of all the state capitals in the southwest of the great Zhou Dynasty. His family was rich, and he was the only son. Other than going out every day, he was quite similar to li Muyan in other aspects.
