Madam Fang suddenly stopped in her tracks. It was unknown what she was thinking, but her eyes suddenly lit up with burning ambition.

“Lan’er, that’s Gu Dajiang, right?”

Chen Yulan blinked. “Yes, Gu Yundong calls him father.”

Madam Fang’s smile gradually widened. “Gu Dajiang is quite good-looking. Moreover, I heard that he has studied before. He’s a knowledgeable person.”

Chen Yulan knew her mother too well. When she heard this, how could she not understand what her mother was trying to do?

But this was too whimsical.

“Mother, don’t tell me you want to…”

Madam Fang glared at her. “Why? Can’t I think about it? Gu Dajiang is talented, handsome, and so rich. Think about it. If we let Jiang Yongkang seduce Madam Yang, we’ll have to split the Gu family’s assets equally with him. But if Gu Dajiang and I achieve something, the entire Gu family will be ours. When I win over Gu Dajiang, Gu Yundong will have to listen to me and do whatever I tell her to do.”

Chen Yulan felt that this matter was unreliable. “But Gu Yundong just said that Gu Dajiang values the mother and daughter very much. He even suffered a lot to find them.”

“What do you know? Don’t others say that the more you lack something, the more you stress it? Look at how confident she is. She’s clearly afraid that others will see that Gu Dajiang doesn’t care about them. That’s deliberately for outsiders to see. With Madam Yang’s appearance, which man has the patience to coax her?”

“But this is just your guess, Mother.” What Chen Yulan didn’t say was that regardless of whether Gu Dajiang really looked down on Madam Yang, at least she was good-looking.

Although her mother was not bad, she was still far inferior to Madam Yang.

However, on second thought, so what if Madam Yang was good-looking? She was a fool who did not even understand the relationship between a man and a woman. Men were the most impatient. They could still coax her for a day or two, but after a long time, they would probably be tired of her.

Then… it was not a bad idea to let her mother try.

“I’m just afraid that it won’t be easy to get rid of Uncle Jiang.”

Madam Fang waved her hand. “It’s fine. I’ll talk to him.”

Chen Yulan did not say anything else. The two of them returned to Chen Liang’s house with their own thoughts.

Now that Madam Fang’s courtyard had been rented to Jiang Yongkang, they naturally had to stay at Chen Liang’s house.

Not only the two of them, but Chen Yulan’s husband, Wu Chong, was also present. He was talking to Chen Liang and the others.

The Wu family also opened a small shop in town. In the beginning, Wu Chong and Chen Yulan were engaged because of Chen Jincai. After all, at that time, Chen Jincai was still a small manager in the workshop in town.

Although there were few people he was in charge of, he still had a little power in his hands. For example, the goods his shop had to buy were partly decided by him in terms of price and time.

Who knew that Chen Jincai would be sent home as soon as he got married to Chen Yulan? He could only be considered a farmer now. It was said that he had to work in the fields every day.

Now that he looked at it, didn’t the man’s hands and face look much rougher?

In the past, when Chen Jincai saw him, Chen Jincai always held his head high and was extremely confident. Occasionally, he would teach Wu Chong as his wife’s uncle and even warn him not to bully Chen Yulan.

Wu Chong was actually very unhappy. He was just a small manager. Did he really treat himself as an elder?

Now that he saw Chen Jincai again, he suddenly had a sense of superiority.

So what if he was his wife’s uncle? So what if he was older than him? Wasn’t he just a farmer who buried his head in the fields every day?
