381 An even more impressive identity
Mrs. Li and Cai Xiaolian were having a good conversation, and it seemed that they would talk until the afternoon.
The four of them went to the kitchen to cook. Gu Nian asked Gu Xin and Gu si to inform Grandpa Gu that there would be guests at their house today. They would have dinner at their house later. They could also go up the mountain to inform grandma Xiao and Lu Zheng.
They were all guests anyway, and Lu Zheng was helping their family with the wasteland reclaimers. It was fine to have lunch.
Gu si went back to the old mansion to pass on a message to her grandfather, while Gu Xin went to explore the barren land.
“Xinxin, what are you doing here? Is it time for lunch?” Uncle Gu asked as he looked up at the sky.
“Yes, I am. There’s a guest at home, so my sister told me to tell everyone that she’ll have lunch with us.” Gu Xin said.
“What guest?” Gu shouxin asked.
“I’m from the prefecture, and I want to buy our skincare set. Mother and that Madam were talking very enthusiastically, and I saw that mother was quite happy. The two of them almost hugged each other and cried,”I hate that we met too late!”” Gu Xin chuckled.
Gu shouxin raised his eyebrows. Shouldn’t this scene happen to him and little Lian? Now, it was actually taken by a woman, Hmph Hmph!
hahahaha, Xinxin, you’re very interesting! Uncle Gu was amused by Gu Xin’s reaction.
Xinxin, what does the guest’s house do? ” Grandma Gu asked.
“His surname is li, and I think his family does everything! Mother seemed to know too. That Madam said that I’m the Li family you think I am.” Gu Xin even mimicked Mrs. Li’s expression and actions when she said that.
Lu Zheng, who was digging, suddenly stopped.
The Li family?
Could it be the Li family that he knew?
The House of Li Muyan, the one who had knocked Gu Nian into the river on the night of the Lantern Festival?
It would be interesting if Madam li came to visit.
At this age, li Muyan was suspected to be gay. Mrs. Li was eager to find a daughter-in-law to prove that her son was not gay.
Even now, Lu Zheng could still remember a saying that circulated in the capital back then, Madam Li’s standard for finding a daughter-in-law was a living, female.
“The Li family that we all know? Is it the biggest merchant in the Qing Prefecture?” Fourth uncle Gu asked.
“It should be! Mrs. Li said that if her family said they were second, no one would dare to say they were first.” Gu Xin said with uncertainty.
Lu Zheng,”li Muyan’s mother has always been so confident.”
Lu Zheng knew li Muyan and his mother. Their identities were known to the world in his previous life when he was twenty years old.
Lu Zheng had recognized li Muyan when he had pulled Gu Nian up that day.
The mother and son were not just from the Li family, the richest family in the Qing government. They had an even more impressive identity.
If Xinxin’s family cooperated with Mrs. Li, there wouldn’t be any problems.
“The Li family’s reputation is quite good, and they have a woman in charge. We can work together.” Grandma Gu commented.
“Madam Li, you’re so fun! I can’t imagine that such a beautiful and noble-looking Madam li would slap her thigh when she’s happy, just like uncle! The aunt and the servant girls beside her are all speechless!” Gu Xin squatted down to help pull out the grass, laughing as she spoke.
“Oh, really? Such a straightforward person? Then, Xinxin, do you think she’s as loud as uncle when she’s patting her legs?” Uncle Gu asked curiously.
“Don’t talk nonsense!” Grandma Gu glared at uncle Gu before turning to Gu Xin. Xinxin, you’re not allowed to say that to others in the future. It’s impolite, do you understand? ”
“Oh, I know.” Gu Xin nodded her head obediently.
Uncle Gu waited for grandma Gu to continue working and not look at them. He walked to Gu Xin’s side and poked her shoulder.
