Then, Gu Yundong called for everyone to go inside.
The shop used to be a silk shop, but everything inside had been emptied.
Those were also the assets of the Xin family. Naturally, they were taken away by the officials.
However, there were still some fabrics that had been cut and left behind. They were still placed on the cabinet.
Uncle Yu couldnât help but widen his mouth when he came in. âYundong, is this the shop you mentioned?â
âYes.â
âItâs huge.â
Gu Yundong looked at the empty room in front of her and was very satisfied. At least, it was much better than her shop in Fengkai County. However, one was a county city and the other was a prefectural city. It was normal for there to be differences.
âThis is the first time Iâve come in to take a look. Itâs indeed quite big. However, weâre a grocery store. If we place a lot of things, itâll naturally be small.â
In fact, grocery stores occupied the most space. Just look at modern supermarkets. They sold everything. When there were a lot of items, the place would be instantly full.
âLetâs go to the backyard.â
Gu Yundong held Gu Dajiangâs hand. Gu Dajiang was also very excited. This was his shop. Yes, it would be Yundongâs dowry in the future.
Although it was a little far from home, it was still a shop in the prefecture capital, and it was so big.
He happily followed Gu Yundong to the backyard.
The backyard of the shop was not small either. There were three rooms.
In addition to the kitchen and outhouse, there was also a storeroom used to keep things. There was more than enough room for the three members of the Yu family here. It was much better than the previous small courtyard.
There was ready-made furniture in the room. The bed, cabinet, and desk were all very neat.
The Yu Family could use them now. In the future, when they had money, they could buy new furniture if they didnât like it.
However, Gu Yundong felt that the Yu family was used to being thrifty and would not change it unless it was time for Yu Jin to get married.
âThe kitchen doesnât seem to be used much. Itâs still considered clean.â Gu Yundong came out of the kitchen. âItâll be convenient to cook here after you buy the ingredients.â
Uncle Yu smiled until his face was full of wrinkles. He was very excited.
âYundong, donât worry. Weâll do our best.â
His eyes were shining with enthusiasm and confidence for the future.
Uncle Yu also nodded repeatedly. He touched the pillar at the side lovingly and walked back and forth in the courtyard twice.
Actually, Gu Dajiang also wanted to touch it, but he was supported by Gu Yundong. His hand was held tightly, and he could not move his feet.
He felt frustrated.
After Yu Jin looked at the backyard, he started to roll up his sleeves. âFather, Iâll go to the front to clean up the shop now.â
âHey, Iâll help too.â Uncle Yu felt that he had become a few years younger and followed behind excitedly.
Uncle Yu wanted to go too. He had already rolled up his sleeves when Gu Yundong pulled him back. âGrandpa Yu, stay here and chat with my father.â
âBut Iâ¦â
âIf you go to clean up the shop, my father will definitely follow you. Look at his injuriesâ¦â
Uncle Yu immediately looked at Gu Dajiang solemnly. âYou canât let Yundong down. Heâs been gone for so long. Come, sit down and talk. Youâre leaving in a few days. I donât know when weâll meet again.â
Gu Dajiang could only sigh and rest.
Tong Shuitao was quite diligent. She had already gone to the well to get water and carried the basin to the shop.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she entered, she heard a voice outside.
âThis shop is indeed open. Letâs go in and take a look.â
