Chapter 992: Chapter 992 Red Packet
....Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
When they saw each red packet containing a hundred silver taels, the two sisters were quite surprised, but they refrained from commenting. Instead, Zhou Ying focused her attention on the boys, urging them to dedicate themselves to their studies.
Just then, Gu Ziyi came in, carrying a child. Gu Ziyi smiled warmly. “It’s been a few years since we’ve seen each other. You look more mature and settled now, but you haven’ t aged a bit!”
“Sister, you flatter me,” Zhou Ying replied. “Please, come and sit down.” Her gaze then landed on the child. “Is this the little one you and my brother-in-law had later?” She inquired after Gu Ziyi had settled in.
“That’s right,” Gu Ziyi confirmed. “His name is Zhangjinsong. Come on, great your aunt.”
“Greetings, Aunt,” Zhang Jinsong echoed with a smile.
“There you go, a good boy,” Zhou Ying patted him. She then observed him closely. “You resemble your father quite a bit. You have the build for martial arts.”
With that, she called Huanhuan and Lele over, handing each of them a red packet containing one hundred taels of silver.
“Huanhuan’s not a child anymore,” Zhou Ying remarked. “Has a wedding been arranged yet?”
“Yes, actually,” Gu Ziyi responded. “She’s betrothed to the son of County Magistrate Bai, Bai Jingping. Their wedding is scheduled for April.” “Magistrate Bai? The son of Bai Jingping?” Zhou Ying echoed in surprise.
“Yes,” Gu Ziyi confirmed. “He pa.s.sed the preliminary examinations last year and seems like a reliable young man. We know the family well, so we decided it would be a suitable match.”
“That’s wonderful news,” Zhou Ying declared. “Magistrate Bai is a well- respected man.”
“By the way,” Gu Ziyi asked, “where are Chengrui and the children?”
“Chengrui went to the village chief’s house to handle some matters,” Zhou Ying explained. “As for the children, they’re back by the stables, tending to the horses.”
“They can handle horses already?” Gu Ziyi asked, surprised.
“Yeah,” Zhou Ying confirmed. “Both Guoguo and Chenchen know how to ride, so I taught them the basics of horse care.”
“Then can Song’er go back there and take a look?” Zhang Jinsong piped up, eager to see the horses.
“Of course,” Zhou Ying agreed with a nod.
Zhang Jinsong wasted no time, turning and das.h.i.+ng out of the room. Huanhuan and Lele exchanged glances before following suit.
Gu Ziyi chuckled, shaking her head.
“I actually think it’s a good thing,” Zhou Ying countered. “If girls are too well- behaved all the time, they can come across as stuffy and unlikeable.”
“I suppose so,” Gu Ziyi conceded. “Though I figured you might change after becoming a n.o.ble wife. Seems like you’re still the same Zhou Ying I know.”
“There’s no need to put on airs,” Zhou Ying scoffed. “Besides, I prefer a more simple life. Speaking of which, is your brother-in-law still working as a constable?”
“Yes, he is,” Gu Ziyi replied. “It’s not the most prestigious position, but it allows us to be together as a family every day, and that’s what truly matters.” “Absolutely,” Zhou Ying agreed.
They continued chatting for a while before Guoguo and the others returned. Gu Ziyi’s eyes immediately lit up upon spotting Third Fatty. “Oh my!” she exclaimed. “This must be your third son! Such a handsome and lively child! He’s simply adorable.”
“Tell Eldest Aunt how old you are today,” Zhou Ying instructed Third Fatty, lifting him into her arms.
“Three years old,” Third Fatty announced, holding up three fingers.
“Such a clever boy!” Gu Ziyi gushed, promptly adorning his wrist with a small silver bracelet.
She then bestowed gifts upon the other children, presenting Guoguo with a pair of pink hairpins and Chenchen with a nice inkstone.
“Thankyou, First Aunt,” Guoguo said politely, bowing in grat.i.tude. Chenchen and Third Fatty followed suit.
“Have a seat. I’ll get some snacks for the children.” After Zhou Ying finished speaking, she went to the west room and took out a plate of nuts, dried fruits, and jerky from her inters.p.a.ce.
“Guoguo, please help me entertain your elder cousins.”
“Yes, Mommy.” Guoguo greeted them and invited them to sit by the brick bed before making them chrysanthemum tea.
After a while, Gu Chengrui rushed back, and the siblings chatted for a while. Gu Chengrui asked,” Why didn’t brother-in-law come over today?”
