”Gu Xiaoyu, come over here.” Xie Jingxi pulled her closer, ”Tell me, do you know what it means to be embarrassed?”

Gu Xiaoyu shook his head, then said: ”Those words that I don't know cannot be randomly used, do you remember?”

Gu Xiaoyu nodded her head sensibly, looking like she really wanted to make people bite on her cute appearance, but Xie Jingxi knew that her daughter had a plaything in her stomach that she didn't want to ask about, even though she could tell that they didn't want to tell her, it didn't mean that she didn't want to know in her heart where she was holding it in. It wasn't that Xie Jingxi didn't want to explain, it was just that she felt that this was a meaning that could only be understood and not explained, uh, wait a few more years.

Xie Jingxi asked her again, ”Tell Mother why did you bully Little Hairy Lin yesterday.”

Since Gu Xiaoyu could say that she knew how to jump, she had frequently went to the village and caused trouble for other kids, but it couldn't be said that she was bullying them. It was just that this child was too daring, was very interested in things like snakes, rats, birds, etc., and often caught some bugs to raise, even trying to ”communicate” with them.

However, under normal circumstances, a small fight wouldn't matter. She would just need to be taught a few things, and be treated as an apology, but yesterday, little Mao's mother told her that if a person's child's soul was scared off, that would be a huge problem. People in the countryside were all superstitious about spirits.

Xie Jingxi was also worried in her heart. You said that Gu Xiaoyu was a child, but she did not have a bad heart to be close to bugs and birds, she could not tell her that it was not good. She could only explain to her that other children were afraid, and not share anything with others. Not much...

As expected, Gu Xiaoyu innocently stared at her, ”Mother, I didn't share the fish with him. I caught the furry hair (worm), but didn't show it to him, and let it go.”

”Ah Yu did very well, but can you tell me why Ah Mao is crying?”

Gu Xiaoyu pointed behind him with her arm, ”Over there.”

Xie Jingxi's head was about to explode when she heard about it. She glanced at Gu Yun and sighed in his heart, Gu Xiaoyu was referring to that small forest, since the incident last time, her family did not mention about that place anymore. However, they could not resist Gu Xiaoyu's curiosity, so sometimes throwing her out for fun, would definitely make her run away. When talking about Zou Ling, Gu Xiaoyu seemed to like her a lot and had often played with her, so Zou Ling was also willing to accompany her to have fun. This girl knew how to play, and was loved by children the most.

Although the villagers did not have the heart to kill it, they definitely did not dare to approach it. Gu Xiaoyu had probably seen the leopard before, although she did not say it out loud, but in her heart, she definitely wanted to go and play with it. However, after being reminded by Ming Yu, she did not go near it.

Xie Jingxi tapped her little nose, ”Gu Xiaoyu, has mother told you before that no one in the village dares to go to that little forest. It's fine if you just sneak in yourself, but don't bring other little friends in?”

”I got it Mother, apologize to Ah Mao, can I get some snacks?”

Xie Jingxi laughed, ”Go, let your Aunt Ming lead you there.”

Gu Xiaoyu grinned, and was about to hug Xie Xiaojiu, but suddenly stopped, and sprinted away with her short legs. Xie Xiaojiu thought that she was ignoring him again, and anxiously chased after her from behind.

Xie Jingxi stared at them and laughed, ”Young lady, you really give me a headache.”

”It's such a headache. I think it's pretty good.” Gu Yun made another cup of tea and passed it to her, ”Kids need to be guided well, but their nature must not be lost. Having their own thoughts and personalities is not a bad thing, they will understand sooner or later.”

”You're quite optimistic.” Xie Jingxi took a sip of tea, ”What do you think Zou Ling is doing, we will leave sooner or later, is she going to stay like this forever?”

Gu Yun remained silent for a while, before changing the topic: ”A few days ago, Hu Xueyong came back to visit his old mother, to meet me. He has been staying in Hanlin House for a few years, and was just moved to Guangzhou, preparing to take office, but mother Hu did not agree, so it was hard for him to find a proper small courtyard for her, and after a few years of working, he did not have the free money to build a few rooms for her. Mother Hu is already old, and when he goes to Guangzhou, I do not know if we can meet again, so I have to arrange a meeting for him.”

Although Xie Jingxi left this place in the Moon Slaughter Devil Nest for Guangzhou, Xie Jingxi didn't know whether it was Gu Yun's work or not, but she knew that they wouldn't be able to leave for Guangzhou very long. After Gu Yun reminded her like this, a whole new mood arose in her heart, she felt that even after sneaking around in the mountains for a few years, it was still hard to avoid entering the ranks of the common people.

Just as the family prepared to move out of Guangzhou, another unexpected guest arrived in the small courtyard.
