Eat My Childless Life: The Little Fisher Girl is Poor and Fierce

Chapter 605 Cautious and Hesitant

Thinking of his aunt's behavior just now, Wu Qingfeng wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve. "Okay."

Lin Chang'er closed the door and left. Wu Qingfeng sighed softly. This matter was really difficult to handle.

You can't just say that a mother and child are of one heart and that whatever the aunt thinks is true.

I hope my aunt can provide some substantial evidence!

At dinner, as usual, the children sat at one table and the adults at another.

Gu Dalang and Gu Erlang found an excuse to take care of the children and sat down at the children's table. Wu Qingfeng, on the other hand, did not avoid suspicion and stayed by his mother and aunt's side.

Lin Chang'er sat next to Aunt Gu. The whole family never really had a quarrel, and they were all very friendly.

But it's as if they've been divided into two factions without even realizing it.

Aunt Xu was used to staying at home and rarely went out. During the day, she would embroider and do needlework with Aunt Gu and a few other women.

He stopped going out after dark, and dinner was delivered to his room.

Little Goldfish and Gu Xiaolu were unaware of what was going on and continued to be carefree. Gu Xiaoman was like a little tyrant at home, rarely getting her father's attention. One minute he wanted to peel shrimp for her, the next he wanted to pick out fish bones for her. She truly acted like she was the only one who was hungry.

Gu Erlang had been helping Lin Chang'er manage the sugarcane plantation for the past six months, and with the addition of their second son, he was already quite busy during the day, though he wouldn't just collapse into bed as soon as he got home at night.

But it's not much different. Sometimes when I'm trying to lull the baby to sleep by Yudian's crib, Yudian doesn't fall asleep, but I fall asleep first.

Gu Xiaoman now lives with Xiao Jinyu. During the day, she is almost always at school, and the rest of the time she spends with her aunt, who is the best in the world. The father and son only see each other briefly during meals and rarely have time to spend together.

The saying goes, "Good things come from afar, bad things come up nearby," and Gu Erlang was happy to serve him.

While the Princess Consort of Zhenbei didn't say anything, she kept glancing at the twins out of the corner of her eye.

The brother and sister each held their bowls; the brother ate heartily, while the sister, being a girl, ate rather delicately.

If his younger sister can't reach a dish, her older brother will stand up and pick it up for her.

If there's rice stuck to the corner of the brother's mouth, the sister will wipe it off for him.

If the soup is too hot, the older brother will blow on it for his younger sister. When eating fish, the younger sister will remind her older brother to be careful of the bones.

The Gu family truly raised the brother and sister very well, and Princess Zhenbei's eyes welled up with tears as she watched.

"Aunt, this soup is good."

Princess Zhenbei snapped out of her daze and saw that it was Wu Qingfeng who had served her the soup. She quickly composed herself and said, "Is that so? Let me try it."

He took a small sip of the soup and said, "It's really good."

He turned to look at Lin Chang'er and said, "Chang'er..." He also wanted to try it.

He felt it was presumptuous to call out the name, since he was currently staying at the Gu family's house and could not possibly usurp their place.

When Lin Chang'er heard her call her name, she looked up and saw that the Princess of Zhenbei had inexplicably fallen silent.

For a moment, the dining room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop; an awkward silence filled the air.

After a long pause, Madam Huo smoothed things over, saying, "Now that your aunt is pregnant, Feng'er, you can't be biased towards her."

Wu Qingfeng quickly chimed in, "Mother's words are right." He then brought soup bowls and served one to each of Madam Huo and Madam Gu.

As for Lin Chang'er, Gu Dasao, Gu Ersao, and other peers, there was no need for formalities.

Lin Chang'er wasn't short of soup, so she naturally wouldn't hold it against him.

However, it seems that the Princess Consort of Zhenbei is rather easily frightened, cautious and anxious. If this continues, she may develop a mental illness.

As the party ended, she gave Wu Qingfeng a wink, and he nodded to her in response.

Before Wu Qingfeng could reply to her, Aunt Gu came to her first...
