As Gu Yundong spoke, she took another sip of water.
Shao Qingyuan reached out to pat her back, but Madam Yang beat him to it. âDongdong, donât be angry, donât be angry.â
Gu Yundong rubbed her temples. âIâm not saying that he canât find another one. Ding Jincheng is only in his early twenties. But he doesnât have to be in such a hurry, right? It was a waste for my cousin to marry him.â
There was anger in her heart for Bian Mulan, who had lost her life because of her beauty, and also for her eldest aunt, whose whereabouts were still unknown.
âAnd Yuanzhi, he actually sent him to the Gu family.â
Gu Yundong originally did not want to go to the Gu family. She only wanted to find out Gu Dajiangâs whereabouts. If he was not in the Gu village, she would secretly get someone to teach the Gu family a lesson. She did not even need to meet them.
But things were different. She couldnât let Bian Yuanzhi stay in the Gu family.
Her eldest aunt and uncle-in-law were dead, and her cousin had passed away. Bian Yuanzhi might be the last member of the Bian Family.
Among Gu Dajiangâs many siblings, Gu Yundong only acknowledged his eldest aunt and youngest uncle as family, so it was impossible for her to ignore her eldest auntâs son.
Shao Qingyuan supported her no matter what she did. âFrom the looks of it, we have to get someone to go to Gu village to inquire about the situation and see if Uncle Gu has returned.â
Gu Yundong nodded. At this moment, the owner of Xingsheng Restaurant returned.
He actually recognized Madam Yang and immediately came over when he saw her. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Knowing that Gu Yundong was Gu Dajiangâs daughter, he shook his head slightly and sighed. âYour father and I are considered friends. I even went to the Gu village to ask before the new year. I thought that if he came back, he would come to my restaurant to be a accountant. Your father is serious and knowledgeable. Iâm used to hiring him. Now that business is slowly improving, itâs much easier for me if I could get his help. What a pityâ¦â
He shook his head. âYour grandparents actually said that your entire family died outside. I found it strange. Why is it so coincidental? Everyone else is fine, but none of your family survived. I didnât expect to see you and your mother now. I think your father must still be alive. He might be looking for you too.â
âYes, I also believe that heâs still alive.â Gu Yundong thanked him before leaving with Madam Yang and Shao Qingyuan.
When they returned to the inn, Gu Yundong could tell that Madam Yang was in low spirits.
She quickly comforted her. âMother, can we go home after we bring Yuanzhi out? Perhaps Father has already found our house. Think about it, weâre looking for Father, and Father must be looking for us too. We might have missed him, right?â
Madam Yangâs mood improved a lot when she heard that. She nodded slightly. âI miss Ah Shu and Keke too. Iâll go and solve the puzzles.â
She entered the house, but Gu Yundong was thinking about how to get Yuanzhi to come over.
âLetâs find someone to inquire about the situation in Gu village first,â Shao Qingyuan said.
Gu Yundong agreed. âBut who should we ask?â
Shao Qingyuan glanced at the door. Gu Yundong was stunned and followed his gaze. The next moment, her eyes widened.
âTheyââ
Four people came in one after another. When they saw him, they immediately smiled brightly and rushed over.
âBrother Shao, we took the mule cart here. Itâs just that the mule cart was especially slow and kept pooping. When it sees any grass, it insists on eating it. The four of us together canât pull it back. Look, weâre late. Hehe, donât take offense. Donât take offense..â
