Gu Xiaobao couldn't understand what a nephew or niece was, but when Gu Jiao explained "little uncle" to him, he finally got it. This he understood.
"Am I the little uncle?" he asked.
"Yes." Gu Jiao said.
He thought seriously for a while: "Alright."
He is a year older and no longer pats his chest with open fingers and waves his tiny hands like he used to.
To him, those are things that little babies do.
Gu Jiao was surprised by his change, kids indeed change every day.
Gu Yan and Gu Xiaoshun went to school, leaving only the Yao Family and a few little maidservants at home.
The Yao Family brought a plate of homemade snacks to the east room, knowing her daughter didn't like things too sweet, so she only added a little sugar to the snacks.
"Busy from early morning, you must be hungry, have some food." The Yao Family handed the snacks to Gu Jiao.
Gu Jiao took a piece of almond cake, tasted it, it still had the familiar taste, delicious.
