Chapter 637: A New Home

After Mo Beihan left, Gu Yunjing and his family examined their new home. They were wildly excited.

The house was sixty square meters in size and had two rooms only. They were able to divide it up and squeeze out a living room. Gu Yunjing and Fang Ling would have one room while Li Qingdan and Li Qinglang lived in the other room.

As for Gu Jinye, he had no choice but to sleep in the living room for now.

Li Qingdan and Li Qinglang were Gu Jinye’s fiancée and her younger brother.

Li Qinglang was still a child, and it was all right to share a room with his older sister for a while.

That night, Li Qinglang looked at his older sister and said somewhat anxiously, “Older Sister, I… will I stay here in the future?”

Li Qinglang was very young. When he was born, his family had already fallen on hard times, so he had never had a good life.

This house was the nicest house he had seen in his life.

But he knew this was not his home. It was his brother-in-law’s home.

Once his older sister married, she was expected to move in with Brother-in-law. But it was not right for him to be living here. His parents could not bear for him to suffer in the north, so they had begged his brother-in-law to bring him along and his brother-in-law had agreed.

But he was worried. What if his brother-in-law disliked him in the future?

Food was too precious these days. Many families did not have enough to eat. This had been the case for them in the north. His parents had often gone hungry. Later on, after his older sister had met Brother-in-law, things had improved with his brother-in-law’s help.

Then when a match between his older sister and his brother-in-law was being discussed, the Gu family had given them even more presents. Not only did he have new clothes, he even had many delicious snacks.

This was the first time in his life that he had such delicious food.

Li Qingdan looked at her younger brother. She was also rather anxious as she hugged him and consoled him. “Don’t worry. I will take good care of you. Your brother-in-law is a very nice man.”

She was actually rather uncertain herself. In these times, life was hard for everyone. They did not even have enough food for their own families, so where would they find extra food to support others?

Her younger brother was still young, and while they were in their hometown, he was an extra mouth to feed and could not work. Ever since she and Gu Jinye had gotten engaged, the Gu family had been giving them presents.

Food, clothes, and other daily necessities – the Gu family had given whatever they could. With the Gu family’s help, her family’s life had improved significantly.

Her marriage had truly cost the Gu family a lot. She felt rather guilty.

But before they were even married, Gu Jinye had performed a great service and was transferred to the capital. He had even managed to bring his parents along. She was truly fortunate.

In the north, many people had been deeply jealous of her. Many had tried to break her engagement and take her place!

She looked at her younger brother. She really had no way of guaranteeing him anything.

Li Qinglang was a very mature child. He had suffered greatly since young, so he was well aware of the importance of such matters.

He immediately smiled. “Older Sister, I know what to do. I will be very good and obedient. I will help you work and eat less. That way, you won’t be in such a difficult situation. I hope that our parents can leave that place soon. When I’m a little older, I’ll go back to our parents.”

Li Qingdan’s heart ached. “Qinglang…”

“Older Sister, Brother-in-law is already very, very good to us. We must be grateful to him.”

Li Qingdan nodded. “I understand. I am very grateful.”

Li Qinglang smiled. “That’s right! How rare is it to meet someone as nice as Brother-in-law. In the future, you must lead a good life. As long as you are doing well, our parents won’t need to worry about you, right?”
