"Dad, Mom, our sweet baby is getting bigger and bigger, and our appearance is getting better and better."
Li Xiuniang returned home, hung the washed clothes to dry, washed the fish she caught, and stewed it with a few pieces of tofu.
After finishing all this, she carried Gu Qingcheng to find Gu Dahai and his wife.
She briefly told the story of several children surrounding Gu Qingcheng, and then said with a hint of worry, "No matter how well we protect her, there will always be people who come to join us -"
Neither Gu Dahai nor Zhao were fools. Although Li Xiuniang didn't mention Gu Qingcheng's "silliness", they could both understand what the other party meant.
In the past three years, they rarely let their sweet baby come into contact with people in the village. When they occasionally met, they just said hello.
With just one or two quick glances, it would be difficult for an outsider to tell that Guobao is not thinking well.
However, if you come into contact with it too much, you will always find abnormalities.
At that time, outsiders will laugh at and despise their good baby.
A little girl, silly, and so good-looking... just thinking about it with their toes can make Gu Dahai and Zhao tremble with fear.
As my daughter grew older, her slow response became more apparent.
Gu Dahai and Mrs. Zhao no longer have any luck: their daughter is just a little fool and has not become smarter when she grows up.
The couple was distressed and worried.
What they fear most is that their daughter will suffer malice and harm from the outside world because of her stupidity.
Therefore, when she heard Li Xiuniang take the initiative to talk about this matter, Ms. Zhao, who had always been mean to her "daughter-in-law", did not blame Li Xiuniang for not taking care of her children carefully and actually letting the naughty child bully her sweet baby.
Mrs. Zhao was filled with worry, and there were obvious vertical lines on her forehead from frequent frowning.
She took the little girl from Li Xiuniang's hand and gently held her in her arms.
Where Gu Qingcheng couldn't see her, she shed tears silently: Oh my dear, what will you do in the future?
The Gu family had no money or power, so it was extremely difficult to protect their silly little girl.
Now the daughter is only six years old and only four years old. She is already in such a dilemma. What will they do when she grows older?
After all, Gu Dahai is a man and the head of the family. He is also worried, but he is calmer.
He looked at Li Xiuniang inquiringly, "Xiuniang, I know you are a smart child. You came all the way to find me and your mother. Do you already have an idea?"
Li Xiuniang secretly gave her father-in-law a thumbs up from the bottom of her heart.
She knew that in the Gu family, her father-in-law was the most sensible and knowledgeable.
If he hadn't died in the previous life and had him suppressing her, my mother-in-law and sister-in-law wouldn't have been so bad.
In this life, with her, Li Xiuniang, her father-in-law will definitely be able to avoid death.
And the idea that Li Xiuniang came up with could not only help Gu Qingcheng, but also save her father-in-law, absolutely killing two birds with one stone.
"Dad, I do have some thoughts."
Li Xiuniang is not a very smart and powerful person. But she has the memory of two lifetimes, which is her biggest golden finger.
She remembered a "wonderful thing" from her previous life——
"Dad, last time I went to town to buy something for my dear baby, I heard some news."
"There is an accomplished person in our county. I heard that she came from the capital and was a noble person in the capital before she became a monk."
"This Master Qingmiao is not only superb in Taoism, but also good at medicine. He is benevolent, compassionate, and most compassionate."
"Even the county magistrate wants to send his young lady to live with the real person. He doesn't even want to learn from a teacher. He just wants to stay with the real person for a while and become more noble."
What Li Xiuniang said was half true and half false.
Master Qingmiao is from the capital, and he is indeed capable, it is true.
But at this moment, people in the county don't know her details.
It is even more impossible for the county magistrate to send his pampered daughter to serve in a Taoist temple.
Qingmiao Zhenren had just arrived in the county, and people around her didn't know her origins.
She was kind and perhaps wanted to relieve her boredom, so she adopted several orphan girls from farmers or poor homeless women.
Either teach them literacy, or teach them medical skills, which will always give them a skill.
A few years later, nobles from the capital traveled thousands of miles to seek her help. Only then did everyone in the county know that this Qingmiao Master was of noble birth and had outstanding medical skills. Even the saints and empresses in the palace respected him.
And the poor girls she educated doubled in value instantly.
Not to mention the officials and wealthy households in the county, even the gentlemen in the prefectural city were vying to grab it.
Either to seek marriage for a nephew or nephew, or to be a female teacher or tutor at home.
Subsequently, Qingmiao Zhenren's Qingfeng Temple became a famous "women's school" in villages and towns throughout the country.
As long as you stay in Qingfeng Guan for a period of time and have the opportunity to receive personal guidance from Master Qingmiao, your worth will double!
It has become the most legendary thing in the local area!
Li Xiuniang combined the memories of her previous life, carefully calculated the time, and concluded that Master Qingmiao had just arrived in the county and quietly planned to build Qingfeng Temple.
Master Qingmiao is the most merciful, and he is new here and has no great reputation yet.
The Gu family is poor, and Gu Dahai and Zhao will also beg and beg. In addition, Gu Qingcheng is so good-looking, oh no, so pitiful——
Li Xiuniang felt that Master Qingmiao would accept Gu Qingcheng.
As long as the real person is surrounded by gold, even if outsiders discover that Gu Qingcheng is a fool in the future, they will not treat him lightly.
Furthermore, their little boy is not really stupid, he is just slow to react.
Every time Li Xiuniang sees Guabao's clear and bright eyes, she will doubt:
It is said that the eyes are bright and the heart is clear. Guobao has such beautiful eyes, how could he be a fool?
Maybe, the good boy is just not enlightened!
After arriving in front of the Patriarch of the Sanqing Dynasty and receiving "insights" from the real person, Guabao may have enlightened himself.
"Really? Even the daughter of the county magistrate's family wants to go?"
Zhao's heart was moved.
Gu Dahai was also hesitant.
Li Xiuniang:......
Well, she exaggerated slightly.
Indeed, a young lady from the county magistrate's family went to Qingfeng Temple.
However, it was not sent by the county magistrate himself, but by the daughter of his first wife. Unable to endure the abuse by her stepmother, she secretly begged Master Qingmiao.
Seeing that she was pitiful and smart, the real man kept her.
A few years later, the "identity" of Master Qingmiao was exposed. The young lady relied on her identity as a registered disciple of Master Qingmiao to marry into the capital.
Only her stepmother and half-sister were so jealous that their eyes were red.
The county magistrate was both proud and regretful: he should have sent his other daughters as well.
...The reason is not important, as long as it is true.
"Don't worry, I, I'll go to that Taoist temple to investigate first!"
Gu Dahai was moved, but he still felt sorry for his daughter and wanted to be more secure.
"Dad is the most thoughtful!"
"Well! Dog's father, it's better to do this sooner rather than later. There just isn't much life in the fields these days, so you should go to the county."
"Okay! I'll go tomorrow!" Although I have long planned to go hunting in the mountains, my daughter's affairs are more important!
Li Xiuniang was not surprised at all when she heard Gu Dahai's words.
She was sure that her father-in-law loved her sister-in-law the most, so she chose to raise this matter at this time.
My father-in-law went to Qingfengguan in the southern suburbs of the county to inquire about the news, so naturally he would not go to the mountains.
If he had not gone to the mountains, he would not have encountered the tiger and lost his life.
…
Three days later, Gu Dahai escaped his destined death and returned from the county smoothly.
"Xiu Niang heard it right. There is indeed a real Qingmiao in Qingfeng Temple. She is accompanied by a little girl. She is indeed the young lady from the county grandpa's family. I heard that she is the eldest daughter of the original wife."
Gu Dahai was very excited. His daughter's "future" was finally settled.
Li Xiuniang was also very excited, although she knew that Master Qingfeng was compassionate and would probably keep her after knowing her sister-in-law's condition.
But to be on the safe side, Li Xiuniang prepared some exquisite food in advance.
In my previous life, I vaguely heard that Qingfeng Zhenren had no other hobbies except food.
Li Xiuniang showed off her special skills and cooked a few special dishes.
However, when they arrived at Qingfeng Temple, before Li Xiuniang could take out the "gift", she heard Master Qingfeng smiling and saying, "This child is so good-looking. Are you willing to be my apprentice?"
Not a registered disciple, let alone a handyman, but the only young disciple.
Li Xiuniang's face was numb: ...A man of noble birth and superb medical skills is actually a senior facial control person? !
