Gu Chunzunturned over and woke up

holding some silver in her hand.
She gently took a bite on it.

It's true! Gu Chunzhu was ecstatic!
She dreamt of Su Wangqin giving her money before he left. Who knows that when she woke up, she really was holding it tightly.

This meant that Su Wangqin has finally recognized her as his person, letting her be in charge of money.
This was a treatment that the original owner had never had.

She put away the silver and turned her head to see that only An An was lying on the bed next to her, Xiao Cheng was gone.

She hurriedly got dressed and went out and saw Xiaocheng in the kitchen, stepping on a wooden chair, vigorously stirring the brown rice in the pot.

"Xiaocheng, why are you up so early? Why are you cooking?" Gu Chunzhu spoke softly, fearing that the child would get scared.

Xiaocheng turned his head to see Gu Chunzhu, his ears turned red. He said: "Before Father went out, he ask me to take care of the both of you. Right now, I am the only man in the family. Father can cook so I can learn."

"Good boy" Gu Chunzhu thought of Reaching out and patting XiaoCheng's head but Xiaocheng was standing three meters away from her and already blushing like an apple.

Gu Chunzhu laughed in her heart,
thinking of the times she had spent with his grandparents in her previous life, she would also cook for herself at the age of seven or eight. After all, the family is poor, Xiaocheng should learn how to do housework early, she would not stop him.

She said "Don't put too much firewood, don't let the porridge overflow. An An hasn't gotten up yet. Mother will go and finish sewing up her clothes."

Xiaocheng nodded.

Gu Chunzhu returned to their room where An An was sleeping soundly.

Before going to bed last night, An An, this little girl, refused to untie her hair. Now, her two little braids were messy. She was still under the habit of sleeping with her arms pressed under her head.

Gu Chunzhu picked up the needles and threads that she had bought the other day and started mending An An's clothes.

But her needlework was really messy. As someone from the modern times and not mastering how to sew
Gu Chunzhu felt ashamed.

She has never had such days as sewing and repairing.

By the time the second hole was filled, Gu Chunzhu felt a little better.

After she had completed the piece of clothing, An An woke up.

Gu Chunzhu combed her hair and looked at her less ragged clothes.
She fix her braids and took her to the kitchen to eat.

Although the porridge that XiaoCheng cooked was a bit hard. Gu Chunzhu and An An both ate very well and finish the bowl in no time.

"Xiaocheng, did you fish in the river before?" Gu Chunzhu asked while she washing the dishes in the tub.

"Um, Brother Zhuang has a fishing net, but our family doesn't." Xiaocheng replied, meaning Gu Chunzhu wouldn't be able catch fish even if she wanted to fish.
