Shi Guijia was the first to admit defeat.

They eat very little for breakfast, and even at noon they just eat two steamed buns. Even if Shi Guijia can handle it, the little one can't.

At least by now, both of them are hungry.

In the end, Shi Guijia got up first, took Yang Luo out, found a tavern, and had a big meal and drinks for dinner.

She originally wanted to drink, but after thinking about it, she realized that her daughter was still alive, and it would be troublesome if she got drunk and couldn't find her way home. Reason prevailed, and she vented her resentment on the food.

"...I'm so full I could burst."

She lay in her room digesting her food, while Yang Luoyi remained standing there watching her.

[Didn't it all turn out like this? It feels like I'm being watched, it's so annoying.]

This was only the first day of living together, and the thought of three whole months ahead made Shi Guijia feel somewhat numb.

"...When will Shi Guiyan return?"

Does that guy really want to matchmake them, mother and daughter? Their life is perfectly fine that way.

In fact, from the very beginning, Shi Guijia proposed that Shi Guiyan be the mother of the child, but Shi Guiyan refused to agree, saying that she was not qualified under any circumstances.

This child is hers and Yang Pingsheng's, so it's only right that she should be allowed to have him/her.

Before she knew it, Yang Luoyi, who had been standing outside the door, had fallen asleep in the same spot again. Shi Guijia sighed helplessly, got up and went out.

"Don't make me carry you to bed every time..."

Despite complaining, Shi Guijia still wiped Yang Luoyi's face, changed her clothes, and put her on the bed.

Then she lay back down on the floor of her room.

She knew that Yang Luoyi had covered her with a blanket this morning. Although she had been depressed for so many years, her inspiration was still there.

That child, though outwardly unresponsive, is quite thoughtful.

Shi Guijia thought for a moment, then pulled the blanket over herself and lay down on the floor.

"...What an uncomfortable day."

Uncomfortable in every sense of the word.

"I wish that guy would come back tomorrow..."

With that thought in mind, she closed her eyes and let herself sink into darkness.

Chapter 323 The Second Day of Living Together

the next morning.

Shi Guijia got up very early, pushed open the door, and greeted the rising sun.

She didn't drink yesterday, and unusually, she didn't sleep in. Instead, she gazed at the rising sun.

I didn't sleep well at all last night. Is Shi Guiyan really going to be gone for three months?

For some reason, it felt like a dream.

There was some movement beside her. Shi Guijia looked down and saw that Yang Luoyi, who had woken up at some point, was also standing next to her.

The mother and daughter stood together at the doorway, watching the sun slowly rise.

It was breakfast time again. Just like yesterday, there was plain porridge and a naan bread. After they finished eating, the mother and daughter stared at each other blankly.

Shi Guijia couldn't stand the atmosphere and ran to the door again, but Yang Luoyi followed her, so the mother and daughter moved from inside to the door again.

He continued to stand there, lost in thought.

Wow, it's so high!

"Let's fly!"

A family with a child passed by the door.

The mother was a gentle and refined woman, while the father was a strong man who stood there, lifting his daughter high in the air.

The woman is holding something in her hand, and it looks like she's going on a picnic.

"..."

Thinking of something, he turned to look at Yang Luoyi.

She was intently watching the child raise his arm, looking delighted.

"Well……"

Is it pretentious? No, an eight or nine-year-old child shouldn't be pretentious, right? So she's just genuinely envious.

Shi Guijia scratched her head, unable to say anything for a long time.

I don't know when it happened, but she has become this taciturn person. She used to be cheerful and outgoing, and now she is silent and reserved.

The past and present overlap, but the most important person is no longer there; all that remains is the little one.

Shi Guijia touched her pocket, where there was a note with various instructions from her younger sister, Shi Guiyan. She had only seen it this morning.

The notice clearly stated the precautions, as well as Yang Luoyi's favorite and least favorite foods. It even included the school's arrival and dismissal times and thoughtfully reminded her to pick up and drop off the child every day if possible, instead of letting Yang Luoyi grow up unchecked.

If you're so worried, why don't you take her with you?

Although she knew it was an irresponsible thought, Shi Guijia couldn't help but think about it.

"that……"

"?"

"You're off today, right?"

"……Um."

"Want to come hang out with me? Just the two of us."

"..."

"It's okay if you don't want to."

"...I want to play with my mother."

"Is it okay if it's just the two of us without my aunt?"

"……Um."

"In that case, let's pack our things and go."

"Um!!"

--------------------

Yang Luoyi stood in the room, dressed neatly.

It's likely that Shi Guiyan had considered the trip in mind, as she packed a comprehensive set of items, including clothes and a travel bag.

I have a feeling that guy planned this all along...

Shi Guijia muttered to herself, walked barefoot to the storage room, and pulled out a map from inside.

Since we've decided to go out and have fun, we naturally need to choose a good place.

"Five days is enough time, and considering the travel time, we can't go too far."

For some reason, my eyes instinctively fell on a spot, and I recalled my younger sister's words.

"Luoyi..."

With a series of footsteps, Yang Luo ran to the backyard and called out to her mother, "Mother!"

"Shenlong Lake, wanna go?"

"Shenlong Lake?"

"Hmm... It's a scenic spot, and there's a town nearby. How about we go?"

"Lake water..."

"Yes, there's a wishing well there. It's said that you can make a wish to the dragon and have it granted."

"I want to go!"

With the destination decided, the next step is to determine the route to the destination.

Walking was too far, and taking a horse-drawn carriage was too expensive; neither option was something Shi Guijia was happy to accept.

"It seems this is the only way."

boom!

When the strange machine appeared in the backyard, with its blue glowing patterns, it immediately caught Yang Luoyi's attention.

"Wow……"

She looked at the machine, her eyes shining.

"Mother, what is this?"

"This thing is called an airplane."

The machine in front of us, with two legs, a headrest that can hold people, and the ability to fly, is what Shi Guijia calls an airplane.

Back then, the name and inspiration came from Yang Pingsheng. Now that it has reappeared, a hint of nostalgia can't help but appear in Shi Guijia's eyes.

This thing is truly amazing. It's powered by spirit stones, can expand to the size of a square box, can run, and can fly, making it quite good for transportation.

After so many years, I thought it was no longer usable, but unexpectedly, Shi Guijia replaced it with a spirit stone, and it can still be activated.

"Ah, this thing..."

There was a small wooden toy airplane next to the vehicle. It had an oval-shaped fuselage and two wings. Shi Guijia remembered that this seemed to be a model carved based on Yang Pingsheng's description.

She originally intended it to look like this, but she added some of her own creative touches, and it ended up looking like this.

"This is for you."

Shi Guijia picked it up and casually tossed it to Yang Luoyi, who hurriedly caught it, her eyes wide with surprise: "Is this for me?"

"Ah."
