Destiny Koi, I'm cheating after rebirth

The originally noisy front hall suddenly became silent. Everyone noticed that Gu Cheng's face was solemn after reading the letter, so they all remained silent at the same time.

Gu Lin looked at his father suspiciously and asked with concern: "Dad, what happened?"

What everyone gained from picking fruits today was beyond their expectations.

Logically, my father should be very happy about this, but why did he seem to be in a bad mood after reading the letter?

Yes, what happened? This is the common question in everyone's mind.

Gu Cheng clenched the letter in his hand, frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he finally handed the letter to Gu Lin beside him, motioning him to take a look.

Before yesterday, Gu Cheng would never have acted like this.

Because the family's financial situation was quite difficult in the past, it was difficult to afford such a huge expense, and this was nothing but a foolish dream.

However, all the events that he had experienced since last night had rekindled his hope for the future.

As a scholar who is well-read and knowledgeable, how can I be willing to have my knowledge buried in the countryside all my life, facing the earth and back to the sky all day long?

When I returned home to recuperate due to illness, I was actually filled with reluctance and helplessness.

Over the past few years, although I have tried to remain calm on the surface, I was actually feeling extremely bitter inside. Whenever I thought about it at night, I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

Gu Cheng once thought that he might never be able to make a breakthrough in this life, but now he is told that there are other opportunities. How can his mood not be full of ups and downs?

At that time, his friends invited him to co-found a private school, but he flatly refused.

Even though his illness was gradually recovering, his family was financially difficult and he could not afford to do anything else.

Now my friend wrote to me again and talked about this matter, and he seemed to be very determined...

This is a big deal in the family. The eldest son has grown up, and it is time to ask him to help make decisions.

Gu Lin took the letter with suspicion, read it three times in a row, and an expression of surprise and disbelief appeared on his face.

He looked at his father silently, and after getting his tacit approval, he handed the letter to Gu Yan, motioning for everyone to pass it around, and then turned his gaze to Gu Cheng. This matter...

Gu Lin hesitated for a moment before speaking slowly, "This is a good thing, Father!"

My father has been unhappy ever since he resigned from his position as a private school teacher in the county.

Gu Lin himself was well educated and was well aware of the ambitions of scholars. He felt it was a pity that such a talented person as his father was buried like this.

However, at that time, the family was entangled in trivial matters and all kinds of troubles came one after another, making them overwhelmed.

Now, it seems that a good opportunity has arisen for my father to realize his ambitions.

Moreover, for a family like theirs, a scholarly background will bring great benefits to the future growth and development of their younger brothers and sisters.

Thinking of this, Gu Lin’s mind was spinning like a top.

This good friend of my father actually proposed to open a private school with him in the state capital to teach young children to read and write.

Judging from the words in the letter, this was obviously not the first time this matter was mentioned, but Gu Lin had never heard his father mention it before.

He thought about it and suddenly realized that there had been a lot of changes in the family in recent years, and perhaps his father had no time to take care of this matter.

In the past few years, my great uncle and grandfather fell seriously ill and unfortunately passed away one after another.

During this period, the family spent almost all of their savings to pay for the expensive treatment and ended up in huge debt.

It was not until this year that the family finally paid off their foreign debt and could breathe a sigh of relief.

If it was before, the family’s financial situation was tight and they would not be able to afford such expenses.

The situation is different now. My family has a livelihood in the business of selling mountain products. Our situation is much better than before. If we can maintain stable development...

However, this is a big matter after all, and I need to seek my mother's opinion.

Over the years, the family has been able to survive only thanks to A Niang's exquisite embroidery skills.

It is no exaggeration to say that without A Niang, it would be hard to say whether they could have survived those difficult years.

Gu Cheng couldn't help but glance at his brothers and sisters who were reading the letter.

At this moment, the letter was being handed to Gu Qingzhi, while Gu Yan was standing behind her with his arms folded, looking serious and staring at the letter intently.

After the letter was passed around among the people, it was finally delivered to Gu Wangshi.

Gu Cheng and Gu Lin, father and son, were very nervous, wondering how she would feel.

In fact, the reason why the family was able to repay the foreign debt so quickly was largely due to Gu Wangshi.

She has a pair of dexterous hands and is good at embroidery. Her works are well-known within a radius of dozens of miles.

According to legend, Gu Wang's ancestors once entered the palace to serve powerful people.

At that time, it was said that she was very popular and famous in the court because of her exquisite and skillful embroidery skills.

Rumor has it that even the gorgeous clothes that the queen wore when she got married were sewn by her own hands.

Later, as time passed and she grew older, she asked the palace for permission to retire and return home.

Although there is no way to verify whether these rumors are true, the lady of the Gu family (i.e., Mrs. Gu Wang)'s superb embroidery skills are indeed unique.

Her elaborate embroidery was so beautiful and impressive that it was loved by the wealthy families in the county. Some even said that some of her exquisite embroidery was sold in the state capital.

At this time, the room was silent and quiet. Gu Wangshi did not notice anything unusual. She just concentrated on reading the letter in her hand.

When she finally put down the letter, her eyes were already blurred with tears.

Gu Wang quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe the corners of her eyes, then slowly raised her head, only to be surprised to see her husband and eldest son staring at her with nervous and worried expressions.

She couldn't help but feel angry and amused at the same time: "Why are you staring at me like that? The decision-making power in this matter is not in my hands!"

Hearing her answer, Gu Cheng and Gu Lin were overjoyed.

So, Yunniang/Aniang will not obstruct this, so what's next...

As Gu Qingzhi spoke, she pulled Gu Yan, who was standing behind her, to sit beside her and asked in a low voice,

"Brother, I think this is a very good thing, what do you think?"

Gu Yan remained silent.

Gu Qingzhi's heart suddenly tightened. Could it be that her brother did not agree with this matter?

If my brother disagrees, this matter will probably become very difficult.

After all, the family currently has limited ways to make money, and selling wild game and mountain products is one of the most important sources of income. Although A Niang's embroidery skills are first-class, her eyesight has gradually deteriorated due to overwork over the years.

Now that the family is no longer burdened with foreign debt, she actually doesn't want her mother to continue to work so hard.

Because of this, she recently went to Chen's Cloth Shop to collect many scraps of cloth for her mother to use in making a variety of silk flowers.

I hope I can divert my mother's attention.
