Chapter 191: The Youngster, Jiang Xun (2) (1/2)

Gu Qingyao thought that this child had suffered since young and was always badly treated by her family, so she might be afraid that they would abandon her. But she said with unexpected maturity, “Elder Cousin, I understand. Grandma and the others have always despised me because I can’t work and said that I’m a freeloader. But I work very hard with my mother every day, and still don’t get anything to eat.

“The more you say that I can’t work but need to eat, the more they won’t want me. Then I can leave with my mother.”

At that moment, Gu Qingyao did not know what to say.

She was merely ten years old, yet she was so intelligent. Or perhaps she had such penetrating insights because she had suffered greatly and experienced great contempt.

She thought of this younger cousin who had died of an illness as a teenager in her previous life. At that time, the Gu family had not yet regained its footing and her Younger Aunt had only told the family later…

Gu Qingyao pursed her lips. This would not happen in this lifetime!

Gu Qingyao carried Gu Yunshuang and walked for another forty minutes or so before she saw her third older brother, Gu Jinlin, running swiftly towards them, pulling a small cart. Mo Beihan followed him.

When they saw Gu Qingyao, they did not waste words. “Quickly!”

Gu Jinlin turned the cart around and Mo Beihan carried Gu Yunshuang onto the cart, which was lined with straw. Mo Beihan took off his jacket and covered Gu Yunshuang, then carried Li Fangting onto the cart.

“You get on too!”

He shouted at Gu Qingyao.

Gu Qingyao shook her head. “No need…”

Before she could finish speaking, Mo Beihan had already dragged her to the cart and pushed her in. “Hurry up. You’ve walked for so far, you must be exhausted. Your older cousin and I can pull all of you.”

Mo Beihan dragged Gu Qingyao onto the cart, then Gu Jinlin pulled it and moved off.

Mo Beihan pushed from behind.
