1164: Chapter 1164: The Candidate (3) 1164: Chapter 1164: The Candidate (3) “I…” Gu Yao found himself at a loss for words.
Although he indeed looked young, pretending to be ten was still a bit challenging.
“Sis, what exactly are you trying to do?
I might not be able to pull it off, but Xiwang is eleven, right?
Isn’t he the perfect fit?” Sanni clung to the idea and wouldn’t leave.
“Yes, Sister, I really can do it.” Lin Xiwang nodded his agreent.
“But it’s very dangerous,” Yang Ruxin frowned.
“I don’t want to…”
“Sister, I’m not afraid of danger, really, let do it…” Lin Xiwang’s eyes sparkled.
His facial scars had faded a lot these days, and with good food and clothing, he looked much more confident and spirited.
However, he always rembered that it was Yang Ruxin who had saved his life.
“You said before that if I stayed, it would be to help you with tasks…”
“This…” Yang Ruxin was still hesitant.
She couldn’t help it—everyone around her was soone she had painstakingly raised, and she didn’t want any of them to be exposed to danger.
“Xiwang is indeed suitable,” Gu Qingheng took Yang Ruxin’s hand in his.
“If we set everything up thoroughly, there shouldn’t be any problems…”
“Fine, but this is crucial, and you two can’t tell anyone else.”
Sanni and Lin Xiwang hastily covered their own mouths.
The fifteenth day of the first lunar month was the Lantern Festival, also known as Shangyuan Festival, a very important holiday since ancient tis.
The Great Xuan Dynasty was no exception, with large lantern fairs being held everywhere.
City gates would be opened for three days, aning there would be no nightti curfew on the fourteenth, fifteenth, and sixteenth of the first lunar month.
After the sixteenth, the New Year celebrations were considered officially over, and it was ti for everyone to return to work or school.
In the blink of an eye, it was the thirteenth of the first month.
Yang Ruxin took her family on a journey to the county town, and on the way, she also dropped Xu Juan and Ge Jiabao off at Xiaoliu Village.
It wasn’t right to keep a family separated like that, especially since Ge Jiabao’s condition had improved a lot and now he just needed to rest quietly for his recovery.
anwhile, construction planning for the granary in Xiaoliu Village had already begun.
Without delay in Xiaoliu Village, the family went straight to the county town, moving directly into the Fang Family residence.
This was because the plaza in front of the County Governor’s Office would be the central venue for the lantern fair, and staying at the Fang Family’s was most convenient.
Of course, the more important reason was that everyone would be safer there.
“Mom, you all stay here and chat with Godfather and Godmother, I’m going out with Gu Qingheng for a date,” Yang Ruxin said after dinner, glancing at everyone.
“Are you saying we’re in the way?” Yuan ngzhu couldn’t resist teasing with a laugh, “Or should we all just close our eyes?”
Everyone broke into laughter.
However, Gu Qingheng’s face turned inexplicably red; sotis he really couldn’t handle Xinxin’s earnest teasing.
“Sis, you’re incredible.” Yu Qingge gave Yang Ruxin a thumbs up.
“I’m impressed.
I always thought I had thick skin, but when you put yours on, it’s really frightening…”
“You can take your ti to learn,” Yang Ruxin replied with a proud tilt of her brow.
“We’re off now, and don’t wait up for us tonight, we might go to so hilltop to watch the sunrise or sothing.
But don’t worry, we’ll definitely join you all for the lantern fair tomorrow night…”
“Got it, go ahead.” Yu Qingge winked at Gu Qingheng.
“Brother-in-law, good luck.”
Gu Qingheng gave an awkward cough.
“Big sis…” Sanni chased after her, a worried expression on her face.
“Be careful.”
“Don’t worry,” Yang Ruxin patted Sanni’s head.
“Make sure not to give anything away.”
Sanni nodded.
