The Farmer‘s Eldest Daughter Has a Spatial Pocket

“Grandpa Yu, have you considered it? Do you want to return to the Xuanhe Prefecture with us?”

Gu Yundong hoped that they would leave together. The Yu family did not have any relatives here. If they encountered any problems, they would be isolated and helpless. At the very least, they would be able to take care of each other when they went to the Xuanhe Prefecture.

Moreover, the Yu family had taken care of her father for so long. She wanted to repay them no matter what.

Uncle Yu and Uncle Yu looked at each other. A moment later, Uncle Yu wiped his face and said with a smile, “Gu girl, Grandpa Yu thanks you for your kind intentions. However, we still want to stay in Wanqing Prefecture.”

“But…”

Uncle Yu waved his hand and interrupted her persuasion. “I know you want to take care of us. I also believe that if we follow you to the Xuanhe Prefecture, we won’t have to worry about food and clothing. Our lives will be much better than now. However, we can’t rely on you for everything. Yes, your father received our help a few months ago, but we only gave him a place to live. Compared to the time when you sent a basket of food to save our lives, it’s insignificant.”

Gu Yundong said, “The basket of sweet potatoes I gave you was because you informed us in advance so that we could avoid the chaos. In that case, you should be the ones who saved us first.”

Uncle Yu laughed out loud. “Alright, alright. If you want to calculate it this way, you won’t be able to finish it.”

He was in a good mood and did not regret helping this young lady at all.

There was a cause and a effect. The old saying was indeed true.

Uncle Yu smiled, but very quickly, his expression became serious again.

“Gu girl, actually, there’s another important reason why we didn’t go to the Xuanhe Prefecture.” As he spoke, his expression became a little sad. “Back then, on the way to escape, my wife and my daughter-in-law didn’t survive. Later, after we settled down in Wanqing Prefecture, we moved their graves over and let them settle down. During the new year, we would visit them and burn something for them. If we went to the Xuanhe Prefecture, it would be a long journey. It would be difficult to see them.”

As he spoke, he wiped his face. “I’m already so old. I don’t know how much longer I can live. When I’m free, I can still go and talk to my wife. Don’t let no one visit them when the time comes. If the grass on the grave grows to half the height of a person and there’s no one to take care of them, they’ll be so sad. On the way to escape, they starved to death to give us a bite to eat. How can we leave them behind now?”

In the end, Uncle Yu could not help but tear up.

Gu Yundong panicked and quickly handed him a handkerchief.

“Yes, Grandpa Yu is right. I didn’t consider everything. It’s my fault.”

Uncle Yu quickly stopped his tears and smiled when he heard her words. “What’s your fault? You’re a good child. You want Grandpa Yu to live a good life, but Grandpa Yu has three grown sons. How can he let a little girl who hasn’t reached adulthood take care of him?”

Uncle Yu’s eyes were also red. Although he was sad at the mention of his deceased mother and wife, he could still control his emotions. He only said with a slightly choked voice, “That’s right, Gu girl. Just take your father back in peace and don’t worry about us. Let’s work hard. Our lives will get better. The next time you come, we might all live in a big house.”

Gu Yundong smiled. “Alright, I’ll wait.” After a pause, she said, “But if you don’t follow us to the Xuanhe Prefecture, I have something to ask you for help with.”
