Old lady Ouyang’s expression didn’t seem to be fake, but she didn’t have eyes, so he couldn’t tell if she was lying from her eyes like normal people.
“What evidence do you have to prove that you’re from the Zhou Dynasty?” Gu Xin asked.
Old lady Ouyang touched her collar and took out a small cloth bag.

She opened the cloth bag, which contained a token and a folded piece of yellow paper.
“This is my husband’s token,” she said as she handed the token to him. In the past few years, the country of goddess had been very strict with its internal exits. My husband wanted to take me back to the great Zhou Dynasty, but he didn’t manage to.”
Gu Xin took it. The three of them didn’t know if it was from the Peng family Army’s spy, but the inn wasn’t far from the Peng family’s house. Gu Xin asked second white to bring it to old general Peng.
The three of them continued to listen to the story as they waited for old general Peng to confirm the matter.
The old lady Ouyang carefully wrapped the cloth bag again. “My parents are from Jiangnan. In the goddess Kingdom, children follow their mother’s surname. My benefactor brought my parents to the goddess Kingdom. In order to hide their identity as people of the great Zhou, he gave them the surname Ouyang. In the goddess Kingdom, only the big families had compound surnames. They were still children when they were in the past. They were trusted by their benefactor and took care of his daughter. There are two things in my bag. One is a portrait of my benefactor’s daughter that my parents left for me. They asked me to always remember my benefactor’s family. The second is my husband’s token.”
Gu Xin was confused,”then why didn’t you give the token to the Peng family?” Your husband is a spy, so he’s most likely sent by the Peng family. They’ll definitely recognize him.”
“I’m just bringing it along as a memento.” Old lady Ouyang smiled and shook her head. I’m a blind woman, and my daughter is only sixteen years old. Even in the goddess Kingdom ruled by women, we are often bullied, not to mention the great Zhou Dynasty! If it wasn’t for all the things that master Gu has done in the past year, I wouldn’t have had the mood to buy a house and settle down in kun city. In the past, the people of kun city didn’t have a good life, but now, they were all well. I’m blind, there’s no hope in this life. I just hope that my daughter can marry a good man and live a simple and happy life.”
“Auntie, isn’t it allowed in the kingdom of goddess to have a husband and a concubine?” Gu Nian asked curiously.
“Young lady, you men of the great Zhou Can have three wives and four concubines, but why does everyone in the Gu family only have one wife and no concubines?” old lady Ouyang asked in return.

A light breeze blew past, and the old lady Ouyang sat down on the edge of the bed again. The folded paper in her hand was blown away, and it fell to grandma Gu’s feet.
Grandma Gu picked it up and handed it to Ouyang Qing.
Ouyang Qing thanked him politely.
Ouyang Qing looked at the paper in her hand and then at Gu Xin.
Gu Xin was speechless.
“I’m sorry, third miss Gu,” Ouyang Qing said shyly,”I really thought you were a young master. When I first saw you, I felt that you looked very familiar. Now I know why you look so familiar. You look a little similar to second young lady Gu and our little master.”
Gu Xin and Gu Nian were biological sisters and they looked 60% similar. When Gu Xin was not being cared for by the second and third wife, she did not have enough to eat or wear. Other than her eyes, there was no way to tell how she resembled Gu Nian.
However, after being raised well for four years, the two sisters became more and more similar.
