"Oh, oh, oh …"

The male chicken was called 'the world is bright'.

The crowing of chickens accompanied a new day.

"The sky brightened again."

After a busy night, Nona stretched her back and stretched her muscles. It was time to go out, otherwise if it was daylight and his mother saw that he wasn't in bed, she would definitely be scared. Looking at the growing medicinal herbs in the space, his clear eyes were filled with a gratified smile. This is great, it seems like I can take it in a few days. It seems like my hard work for so many days has not been in vain. After selling all of these medicinal herbs and adding on the money he had saved in the past, his brother's repair would be more or less finished. Winter was approaching, and there was not enough food left in the house. It was best if he could buy some. And his brother's eyes, the only way was to change his cornea, but in this era, let alone surgery, he would probably be burnt to death as a monster if word of this spread.

"Sigh!" Thinking of this, there was no longer any smile on Nona's face. Instead, her face was filled with melancholy.

Ninth Mother, the Gu Family's Ninth Miss.

Who would have thought that a medical accident would have occurred in ancient times, turning her into a nine year old girl with the same name, Jiu Niang.

However, this Nona was not ranked at all. She had a total of three people.

Gu Qishao, his older brother Gu Jinyu, and her, Gu Jiuniang.

As for what her father was like, she tried to ask him when she first arrived, but her mother had nothing to say and her brother did not answer. Thus, she did not continue asking.

Anyway, their family of three were pretty good …

Except...

Gu Jinyu had lost her sight. She was born with an ugly face and pustules all over her face …

In comparison, the only normal person was her mother. However, due to her heavy years of physical work, her body had long since collapsed.

"Sigh …" Life is not easy. "

With a light sigh, Jiu Niang's frown deepened.

Fortunately, she had awakened her ability after teleporting. She didn't think that space could grow herbs, but her mother suddenly fell ill and her family didn't have any money to pay a doctor. She had no choice but to go up the mountain to look for herbs. She found a handful of medicinal seeds by chance and tried to throw them into the space. She didn't expect them to grow on the second day … In this way, she would use the space to grow the herbs. Then, she would disguise as the herbs she had collected from the mountain before selling them off …

"If this doesn't work, I'll have to think of something."

The space was not big, around ten square meters. Moreover, the herbs she could find were all very common. Although it could be said that she could earn a little money, it was still very relaxing. Think of all the money you spend at home... Even if he sold all of these herbs, it would only cost several tens of gold coins. He had already saved up for two to three months, which was about one tael of silver. It was only enough for his big brother to repair the plants …

Although Gu Jinyu could not see, she had always been a sensible child. Although she was only thirteen years old, she would help out with all the big and small things in the family. Knowing that his mother had worked hard, especially after Gu Yu's illness, he had always said that he wouldn't study, but Jiu Niang and Gu Yu's parents had both disagreed.

Although Gu Jinyu couldn't see, she was intelligent and deeply liked by her teacher. Her teacher even found a few scrolls for blind people, and although it was a little short, Gu Jinyu had been working very hard and managed to create a beautiful book. Even the intelligent and perceptive Jiuniang was ashamed, and Gu Jinyu didn't forget, so long as her teacher recited it once, he would be able to recite it word by word. Even Nona could not help but sigh. Indeed, the heavens were fair. Gu Jinyu had let down his talent by not studying properly.

Of course, many people were discussing this behind the scenes. What was a blind man doing reading so many books? Was he going to be able to come back as an Elementary Scholar? Every time Lady Yu and Gu Jin heard these words, they would feel sad for a long time. Only Nona knew in her heart that Gu Jinyu's eyes were not truly hopeless … However, she didn't have the confidence right now, so she didn't dare speak carelessly. She could only encourage him to study hard.

"Mom, I'm going out with my big brother."

"Alright, go early and come back early."

The warm sunlight shined on the land. In front of the shabby thatched cottage, two children, who were half dressed in coarse hemp clothes, waved their hands.

A slightly taller boy carried a backpack on his back. In the backpack, there was a half backpack containing a very common medicinal ingredient.

The boy's lips were red and teeth white. Although he was only twelve or thirteen years old, one could vaguely see that he had grown up handsome, especially his pair of black eyes, which were as clear as a black gem. They glittered under the sunlight, and if one did not say anything, no one would believe that these beautiful eyes could not see anything.

As for the little girl beside him, her skinny body was only up to his shoulder. She was similarly dressed in coarse hemp clothes, and her entire face was covered by a black handkerchief, revealing only a pair of clear eyes.

That's right, they were Gu Jinyu and Nona.

Gu Jinyu was studying at the school in the town. Originally, she could have stayed there, but because her family was poor, Jinyu couldn't bear to spend one tael of silver a year on lodging, so she insisted on going home every day.

In the past, when he was young, Gu Yu Shi would take care of him every day, but later when he grew up, he would be the only one to go back and forth.

Fortunately, the Gu Clan's Taoxi Village was less than an hour away from the town. Gu Jinyu had walked for so many years by herself and had already memorized this road.

Due to the pustules all over her face, Nona had been bullied by the children in the village since she was young. In the past, she rarely went out … Three months ago, she went to the fields to deliver food to Gu Yu's family, but she met a few unlearned brats in the village. Jiu Niang was pushed into the lake, almost losing her life due to a serious illness. However, after she recovered, Nona seemed to have become a different person. She became more cheerful and wasn't afraid of going out anymore …

"Big brother, let me carry it."

The two siblings walked out of the door side by side. Nona was reluctant to see the gentle youth bent over his backpack.

She had to admit that her brother looked really good. Even though he was dressed in coarse clothes, it couldn't conceal his extraordinary temperament. Perhaps it was because he had been studying for years, but his brother didn't have the slightest bit of rustic aura. Instead, he gave off a faint smell of books. Not once did Jiu Niang feel that her brother had misconceived. If he had been reborn in a rich family, even if he couldn't be seen, he would still be an independent noble young master.

"I'll do it!"

Turning around, a smile flashed in her dark eyes. Gu Jinyu lightly shook her head and took Nona's hand. Since he couldn't see with his eyes, Jin Yu's hearing and perception was unusually sharp. He could easily determine a person's position and distance from the sound. If he didn't know that someone he couldn't see with his eyes, he wouldn't have noticed at first glance.

"Big brother, I can do it, it's not heavy." That brilliant smile stung Nona's heart, and she suddenly felt her heart ache.

She didn't know what kind of brother Gu Jinyu was in the past, but Gu Jiuniang's memory was very little about him. In her memories, she was mostly bullied by her village's children … However, during these two to three months, she clearly knew that Jin Yu was a very good, very good brother … He was always trying to do everything he could to be nice to Nona …

Today.

Usually, Jin Yu would leave home before daybreak. She would arrive at the academy in an hour, just in time for her morning studies.

Knowing that Jin Niang was going back to the town to sell herbs today, he intentionally delayed his departure and waited for her to leave with him … He would rather be late than wait for Nona. It was just that he wanted to help Nona get carried on her back …

"Yeah, it's not that heavy, so just carry it on your back."

With a smile in her eyes, Jin Yu gently caressed Nona's head. Her warm palm was soft and gentle, as if she was afraid of hurting Nona …

"Big brother, it's good to have you."

For some reason, her eyes were filled with tears. Nona hugged Jin Yu's waist, burying her face in his embrace.

At the same time, she made up her mind that no matter what, she would find a way to cure her brother's eyes.

God will surely bless a person as wise and kind as my brother.

"Big brother, you should go in quickly."

Although the academy was in the town, it was actually still a short distance away from it. Standing at the entrance of the academy, Nona took the backpack and carried it on her back, then she urged Gu Jinyu to quickly enter.

She knew that Gu Jinyu was already late to wait for her. Although he had always been this way and even a teacher who was half a step late wouldn't argue with him, Jiu Niang still hoped that he wouldn't delay.

"Good." "Be careful, and go home early so that your mother won't worry."

With a warm smile, he gently patted Jiu Niang's head. Although he was late, he was in a very good mood.

He really liked the current Jiu Niang. Even though he couldn't see her appearance, he believed that his little Jiu Niang was definitely as adorable as she was when she was young … Right now, Nona was like a small tree brimming with vitality. Standing by her side, one could feel that her body was brimming with vitality, and even the slightest bit of discomfort would dissipate …

"Uh-huh, okay." "Brother, you have to be careful too. Go home early after school."

His older brother's palm felt warm. Nona stood there quietly, unwilling to move her head away. She only let him gently stroke her head, her jade-like fingers gentle and powerful … Full of love, undisguised...

"Good!"

Gu Jinyu nodded. The corner of her mouth raised slightly and a faint smile appeared on her face.

"Young master, young master, hurry, we're late!"

"Get out of my way, don't block my way!"

"Young master, you can't run around any longer. The master said that if you don't go to the academy today, he will break your legs!"

"Scram, scram! Don't block my way! I'll go whenever I want to!"

Two youths around the same age pushed and shoved their way towards the academy.

The youth in embroidered clothes had a face full of dissatisfaction. He turned around and was about to run away.

The young man in rough green clothes had a helpless expression as he tried his best to pull the young man away, not allowing him to escape.

Unfortunately, the two youths were about the same age, and the green-clothed youth obviously didn't dare to hurt the young man in embroidered clothing. Thus, the two didn't move for a long time.

"Elder brother …"

Although there was still some distance between them, Jiu Niang was afraid that the two of them would run into Gu Jinyu, so she urged him to leave quickly.

But before she could finish …

"Aiyo, isn't this Gu Jinyu? I didn't expect that your favorite student would be late!"

The voice of the boy who was in the change stage was hoarse like a duck. His voice was filled with ridicule and was extremely ear-piercing.

Nona frowned slightly as she turned around to stare at the youth, her eyes flashing with a trace of displeasure.

"What does it have to do with you!" "Just take care of yourself."

Putting herself in front of Gu Jinyu, Nona retorted without any trace of politeness.

Although she was only nine years old, she was still an adult after all, so she would normally not bother with children. In the village, the kids were behind her, mocking her as if she couldn't hear them.

However, this guy was truly asking for it too much.

If she had a reverse scale of a Hu, then Gu Jinyu was her reverse scale.

She only remembered that the first person she saw when she opened her eyes was Gu Jinyu. She nervously looked at Gu Jinyu, and a warm hand gently caressed her pustular forehead, comforting her time and time again. Furthermore, she repeatedly washed the pustules on her forehead.

Even in the first few days she had not realized that his eyes could not see.

"Tsk tsk …" I was wondering who it was. So it's that ugly girl, Gu Jinyu, and you still have the nerve to follow? Who did you come to see this time? Zi Lang, or Mo Fan? "Aren't you afraid of scaring people into unconsciousness like last time?"
