Chapter 211: Engagement Dinner (3)

This time, they had added vermicelli to the chicken soup and she had finished her meal.

She had not had such good food or lived so well for many years.

Li Fangting crouched by Gu Yunshuang’s bed and lifted her head. “Mother, Elder Cousin’s cooking is delicious!”

She rubbed her little tummy, which was rounded with food. She was extremely satisfied!

Gu Yunshuang smiled and patted her head.

“Bring Mother’s bowl and chopsticks to the kitchen.”

“Mhm!”

…

There were so many people at home that night, but Gu Qingyao still remained in her own room.

Gu Yunshen’s room had a very long heated brick bed. If they slept side by side, it could fit eight or nine people without problem. So the three brothers, Gu Yunjing, Gu Yundong and Gu Yunshen, as well as the three older cousins all slept there.

The four children slept in the room that was usually reserved for the older cousins. There were four bunk beds there and the four children slept there with Eldest Aunt and Third Aunt.

Li Fangting slept as usual with Gu Yunshuang in Gu Ruoqing’s old room.

Gu Qingyao remained in her room. She was so excited that she could not sleep.

She would be engaged to Mo Beihan tomorrow. The feeling was just too wonderful.

How many times in her previous life had she dreamt of this scene? At that time, she had been too timid and had been frightened at the thought of people looking down on her or despising her. Actually, she had mostly been frightening herself. She had been too scarred by the trauma of her youth.

If she could have been stronger and more courageous, she would have married Mo Beihan long ago.

Ultimately, she had been doted on since young, and was rather sheltered. At that time, she was too young and her character was yet unformed. She had become like that because she had not been able to escape the shadows of her youth.

Fortunately, Heaven was good to her by allowing her to be reborn. She would live this life more courageously, progressing step by step towards the pinnacle of her life. She would help everyone in her family towards a better life.

She would be getting engaged tomorrow!

Gu Qingyao was so excited she could not sleep. She was exhilarated!

She ran to her interspace to try on the new clothes that she had prepared. For someone who had seen the prosperity of the later years, these clothes were not too nice. But… they held a different meaning. The more she looked at them, the more she liked them!

Gu Qingyao tossed and turned for a long time, but really could not get to sleep. So she went to draw and practice her calligraphy.

In her previous life, she had been fairly famous for her talent in the arts. Her calligraphy and paintings were all valuable.

She might as well draw more. She could practice and also save them for the future when she could sell them and use the money for capital.

She was rather emotional, so she wielded her brush passionately!

She preferred the classical style of painting, especially landscape paintings. She completed over ten paintings at one go. When she looked at her products, she felt that she had improved quite a bit.

The saying that a joyous occasion gladdens the spirit was true. Haha!

She could not sleep, so she went to pick the ripe fruits. She collected a dozen baskets full, then she proceeded to make a dozen small cloth bags to store items. Only then did she stop!

She did not know that while she was too excited to sleep, over at the Mo family, Mo Beihan was also too excited to sleep.

The things that he would bring over to the Gu family for tomorrow’s engagement were all prepared. He had ensured that everything was done properly. His only regret was that he could not be too flamboyant in these times, or he would have prepared even better things!

Yao Yao had already made the clothes and shoes that she would wear during the engagement tomorrow. He had already bought the watch. A pity that it was an expensive imported watch, and it would be too conspicuous if she showed it to anyone. Considering the Gu family’s circumstances, even if he bought a watch, it would be best to buy a cheap one. But he did not want to buy such things for Yao Yao.
