2004 Chapter 2004-gift
The younger generation knew these things, so Grandpa and Grandma Gu didn’t wait for the children to come back from playing to tell them.
There was nothing much to talk about in the Huo family when it came to proposing marriage. Everything was going according to the normal procedure.
However, Duke Zhengguo had something to say.
Gu yingxue began to tell Gu si, Gu en, and Gu Ren.
On the other side of the capital, Gu Xin and her maidservant met up with Lu Zheng. From afar, she could see Lu Zheng smiling at her with his hands behind his back.
Gu Xin jogged over and hid behind Lu Zheng.
“My little ancestor, there are many people! I’ll show it to you, don’t jump!” Lu Zheng pulled Gu Xin, who was about to be touched by someone, and protected her.
“Hehe, who asked you to be so mysterious and hide behind your back?” Gu Xin laughed. She then looked at the thing in Lu Zheng’s hand and exclaimed, ” wow, what a pretty little cat. Its eyes are blue!
“Yup! He had asked someone to look for it in the West and had only sent it home on the fifth day of the new year. I knew you’d like it. ” Lu Zheng handed the cage to Gu Xin and said, ” Happy Birthday, Xinxin! Happy eighteen!”
In her previous life, Lu Zheng found a white dog for Gu Xin. It was pure white and curly, which Gu Xin liked a lot.
He remembered Gu Xin telling him before that she had dreamed of playing with a dog in the yard, so he had no intention of giving her a dog.
Master liaowu said that Xinxin wouldn’t dream of those things again. Although he believed Master Wu, it was hard to guarantee that giving a dog that looked exactly the same would make Xinxin dream of those scenes. Therefore, he changed the gift. It was a beautiful white kitten.
In his previous life, he gave her a puppy on Gu Xin’s 20th birthday. In this life, he gave it to her in advance, so Xinxin would definitely not dream of those things again.
“Thank you, brother Yuanyuan.” Gu Xin took the cage and carried it with one hand while taking something out of her purse with the other. She then handed it to Lu Zheng, ” brother Yuan Yuan, this is for you. I learned it from fourth uncle and carved a seal for you. Look, there are flowers on it!”
“Thank you, Xinxin!” Lu Zheng took the private seal. This was a gift that he had never received in his previous life, but it felt especially real in his hands. He even looked at the private seal with the help of the light from the stall not far away. Yes, this private seal was much more beautiful than the embroidered handkerchief.
It wasn’t that Gu Xin’s skills weren’t good. In his previous life, Lu Zheng had received all kinds of needlework from Gu Xin. Her embroidery skills were not inferior to that of an ordinary embroideress.
In her previous life, Gu Xin had learned most of the things that girls knew.
However, in this life, Gu Xin was not. She didn’t learn cooking or working as a maid, but she knew everything else.
Sometimes, Lu Zheng thought that perhaps second uncle, second aunt, and Gu Nian knew what had happened in their previous life, so they didn’t want Xinxin to learn so much. They let Xinxin practice martial arts and let Xinxin learn how to protect herself.
In fact, it was the same as what he had thought at the beginning.
For example, they only taught zither and chess because Gu Xin was willing to learn. Other than the things that they wanted to teach, they would not take the initiative to ask Gu Xin about anything else unless she mentioned it.
As a result, Gu Xin had yet to learn how to cook. She only knew how to cook all the dishes in one pot and add some salt.
