This time, the new year seemed to pass very quickly to Gu Qingyao. Every day, she was busy learning from her teacher while also cooking all sorts of delicious food for everyone at home.

This year, the Gu family did not come home to celebrate the new year. Everyone knew that Gu Qingyao would be getting married after the new year and would definitely need to take a long leave, so everyone remained in other cities to work so that it would be more convenient to apply for leave then.

Although there were not a lot of people in the Gu family for this new year, it did not seem bleak. It was still as lively as before as the kids ran about the place. Little Six and Little Nine were already used to life in their hometown. They had long known how to read and frequently wrote to their parents. Being taught by their grandparents at home and the group of grandpas and grandmas from the cowshed, they improved very quickly.

On a particular day, Gu Qingyao, Gu Yunshuang and Gu Fangting made a table of food. Gu Qingyao had been away for some time and a long time since the table was filled with such a spread of delicacies, hence the sight brought much joy to everyone.

Gu Qingyao was going to get married after the new year, and everyone was filled with many sentiments, so there were many topics to chat about then.

Everyone stayed up together to celebrate the arrival of the new year, and the kids were excited.

After the New Year’s Eve dinner, everyone was gathered together except for Gu Yunshen, who went to his room quietly and did not come out.

This New Year was a special one for him.

After this, her daughter would be an adult and would even be marrying someone already!

Eighteen years ago was too special to him!

There was something in his hands which he could not keep his eyes away. Due to the passing of time, it had already turned yellow, but it was still like a treasure to him.

This was an item that the whole Gu family did not know about, including Gu Chonghua and Wen Ruyu.

Only he knew about it.

Back in that year, he was picking herbs on the mountain. He was very young then and would occasionally go deep into the mountains to look for rare herbs. It was during that trip to the mountains where he met her.

He saved her, and she said she would devote her life to him. He could tell there was something off about her then, but she was insistent on marrying him. As he disagreed, she suddenly used a rope to tie his hands to a tree branch before lunging at him.

The girl had a very nice smell, and he could tell that it was her first time. Her alluring looks indeed made him fall for her.

The Gu family was once a wealthy and powerful family, but they had been staying in the countryside after the head of the family fell in dire times. Although he had been living in the countryside and did much work that the countryside men would do, deep down he was still the young master of the Gu family

With his family’s foundation, regardless of judgment, knowledge or upbringing, he was different from the people around him.

None of the ladies in their hometown could catch his eyes.

He was also aware that given his identity, it was impossible to meet a lady from better family background, and even if he did, she would not marry a village man like him.

Thus, he was very clear at that time that he might not meet a like-minded lady to spend the rest of his life with.

Unless the times changed, and the Gu family regained its status.
