Rebirth: Divine Doctor, Sweet Wife

Gu Yunjing looked at Gu Qingyao, startled.

Only then did he recall that the children were all playing outside. Only the adults were here, and Gu Qingyao was now an adult.

She was about to be engaged!

Gu Yunjing nodded and said, “That’s right, it was Beihan who told me. His comrade brought me a message, telling me to be careful. If all else fails, I should take the initiative to leave. In that way, the blow will not be so severe, and I can even decide where to go, so there is some element of choice.”

Gu Qingyao frowned and thought about it. Her eldest uncle’s family had indeed suffered greatly in her previous life. At that time, they had brought the two young boys along as well. But most crucially, Eldest Uncle and Eldest Aunt had been separated and Eldest Cousin had been sent even further away.

Mo Beihan had told him?

How did Elder Brother Beihan know?

Gu Qingyao could not figure it out.

Gu Qingyao was still young, and a girl, so Gu Yunjing paid her no more attention when he saw that she did not say anything more.

Instead, he told the two old people, “Father, Mother, right now I’ll probably be leaving for the north-east. The environment there is harsh, so I thought I would send the two younger ones here instead.

“If I and the children’s mother have to suffer, then so be it. Jinye doesn’t have a choice either. He’s grown up, and we’re not so worried about him. But I really can’t bear to bring the two little ones with us.”

The two young ones were nine and six years old, respectively. How could they bear to bring such young children up north to suffer?

Gu Yunshen thought about it and said, “In that case, it would be best to leave the two younger ones here. The north is too far and the environment is too harsh. The children probably cannot stand it. Let them stay here! When we have time, our father and I can teach them to read and write.

“Once Eldest Brother’s family leaves, Third Brother might as well leave his two children here as well. That way, the children won’t find it so odd. Otherwise, if Eldest Brother leaves without the children, Little Six and Little Nine will be sad to see Little Seven and Little Eight leave with their parents.”

In the Gu family, only the boys were ranked. Gu Ruoqing’s case was special. Both the old people and Gu Yunshen had never thought of her as part of the family.

So all the rest were boys, and Gu Qingyao was the only girl.

In terms of ranking, everyone’s habit was to rank only the boys. Gu Qingyao was the exception.

Of the two young boys in Eldest Uncle’s family, Gu Jinrui was currently nine years old and was number six. The younger boy was six years old, and was number nine.

The two older boys in Second Uncle’s family were already grown up. They were number two and number four.

The two little ones in Third Uncle’s family were twins. They were eight years old and were numbers seven and eight.

Let them all stay?

It would not be easy to bring up four children. Just feeding them alone would require a lot of food!

As the fourth brother, Gu Yunshen had remained in their hometown all these years to take care of their parents. Because of that, his three older brothers were free to leave and establish their careers without any worries. Now they were rather embarrassed that they even had to leave their children in their old home.

Eldest Brother had no choice. But Third Uncle was embarrassed.

“That… that’s not right! I’ll bring Little Seven and Eight back! There are so many children at home…”

“By the way, where’s Qing Qing?”

Eldest Uncle interrupted Third Uncle before he could finish speaking.

Third Uncle said there were so many children, but Eldest Uncle, Gu Yunjing, had not yet seen Gu Ruoqing.

That child was not very likable, but she was still a granddaughter of the Gu family, so Eldest Uncle asked about her.

Eldest Uncle’s family had not yet heard about Gu Yunshen and Zhang Xiaohui’s divorce.

Gu Yunshen recounted what had happened and also told them about Gu Yunshuang.

“What?”

Gu Yunjing was so angry he almost leapt up.
