Ma Zhi wanted to roll his eyes as he watched the family's performance. Even a frail scholar wouldn't be this weak.
And there was Gu Baijiang, marching along with vigorous strides. He was an extremely selfish man; instead of thinking about how the family could support each other at a time like this, he was actively burdening his children.
"Kaiyuan, you take over. I can't handle it," Gu Kaicheng said.
Gu Kaiyuan knew he couldn't refuse this time. He walked over and took charge. Sure enough, just like in his past life, Xu Huizhen leaned her entire body weight on him, stopping just short of actually climbing onto his back.
"Mother, I can't bear it if you lean all your weight on me like this," he said.
"You're a big, strong man! How can you not bear it?" Xu Huizhen retorted. "I didn't even ask you to carry me on your back. Are you saying you really don't want to take care of me?"
"I didn't mean that, Mother," Gu Kaiyuan sighed helplessly. "I will do my best."
