Her eyes lit up as she stared at Gu Jin, "Xiao Jin is going to university? This child truly has ability! Where are you studying now? I rember you attended middle school in town?"
Gu Jin nodded to her, "I went to school in town, it’s been over half a year since I went there, now I’ve applied to enter Wanhai City First Middle School, and school starts in a week. This ti, I ca ho to check on the family’s situation."
"Good, good, what a good child. If Second Brother knew, he would surely be happy."
Thinking about Second Brother still in the army, Gu Qiuzhen felt complex emotions.
Gu Jin wasn’t a child of the Gu Family, she naturally knew this, but she also knew that back then, Second Brother truly liked Gu Jin’s mom. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have stayed with her and even got married when she was pregnant with soone else’s child.
Hearing her aunt ntion her dad, a sense of guilt flashed in Gu Jin’s heart.
She sowhat missed that man with a resolute face, gentle smile, and who often showed helplessness and pain when facing her in her previous life.
The atmosphere in the living room suddenly beca tense; An Mingji sensed sothing was wrong and walked over to Gu Jin, gently hooking her finger with his index finger.
He whispered, "Sister Ajin."
Gu Jin turned her head and gave him a gentle smile.
She held the little boy’s hand and walked over to the old man’s side, "Grandpa, the arrangents to attend school in Wanhai City are almost done, school starts next week. I ca back with Xiao An to see you and brought back a lot of rice, flour, and so vegetables to eat."
The old man, hearing that her school arrangents were almost finished, had his eyes soften.
However, when he heard she brought back a lot to eat, he frowned slightly, "You’re still a child going to school, there are many places to spend money, don’t always think about the family, save the money for yourself, the ho doesn’t need you to worry."
"I know, it’s just that I have so connections where I can buy rice and flour cheaply, and I thought that the days at ho shouldn’t be too hard."
Chen Hong raised her head upon hearing this, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Gu Jin, "Jin girl, can you really buy that rice and flour cheaply? Are there grains like wheat, corn, sweet potatoes?"
Seeing her aunt so excited, Gu Jin raised her eyebrows, "There are, but I don’t know what Aunt wants to do with them?"
"The people in the village can’t even eat, I thought of buying so back..."
Realizing everyone present was staring at her, Chen Hong found it hard to continue, her voice growing smaller as she spoke.
"What are you thinking of doing? Could it be that you want to aid others in the village?"
Gu Jin knew Chen Hong wouldn’t do that, she said it on purpose.
"How could that be?!"
Chen Hong stood up in a hurry.
She quickly said, "It’s not that, I just thought if the grain you bought is cheaper, I can buy so too, sell it for a bit more to the people in the village. It’s still better than the frighteningly expensive ones outside."
Unexpectedly, her aunt had such acun, Gu Jin raised an eyebrow at Chen Hong, and slowly said, "I know soone in the county selling grain, Aunt, if you want to buy, you can go to the black market and find soone nad Liu Quan, this person is also known to Jiajie."
"Who do I know?"
Carrying a bag of flour from the kitchen with his dad, Gu Jiajie just entered the room when he heard Gu Jin ntion him.
Gu Jin: "Brother Quan from the black market, back then it was still Brother Jie who took to et this person, now this person resells grain and the price is very cheap. Aunt, if you want to buy grain, you can take her to inquire."
