Gu Dajiang looked at him in confusion and heard Ah Mao say, âUncle Gu, this is from our young master.â
âFor me?â
âYes, Young Master prepared them before coming to the Gu residence.â Ah Mao said, âThese two pheasants were just caught before we went down the mountain. They can be cooked tonight. As for whatâs in this wooden box, I donât know.â
Previously, when Shao Qingyuan was rejected, he had these things in his hands.
However, when Ah Mao came to persuade him, Shao Qingyuan handed them to Ah Mao to prevent them from getting wet, especially the wooden box.
It looked like something very important. Ah Mao had been holding it in his hand. He only handed it to Gu Dajiang personally when he saw him.
Gu Dajiang took the box and got Ah Mao to carry the pheasants to the kitchen.
It was such a hot day. The pheasants would go bad very soon.
Then, he carried the box into the central room. After sitting down, he placed the box on the table, but he did not open it for a long time.
It was only when Xue Rong came in and said that Shao Qingyuanâs temperature was no longer that high that he nodded slightly.
After a while, he still reached out to the box, pulled open the lock in front, and opened the lid.
With just one look, Gu Dajiangâs hand froze.
There were not many things in the box, but the weight was not light.
There were a few banknotes at the top. To the old Gu Dajiang, this was really a huge sum.
Below the banknotes was some deeds to a house and a shop. The house was the green brick tile house in Yongfu Village. The shop was a medicine shop in Fengkai County.
And at the bottom, there was actually another one. This wasâ¦
Gu Dajiang looked at the date in surprise. It was indeed the manor which had been bought recently.
It should have been bought by Shao Qingyuan two days before he entered the mountains. The manor was not big, but it was located near the prefectural city.
No wonder there were not many banknotes left in this box. It turned out that they were all used here.
These were all Shao Qingyuanâs belongings? He gave them all to Yundong?
Gu Dajiangâs emotions were especially complicated.
Seeing that he was silent, Xue Rong, who was standing behind him, paused and asked in a low voice, âMaster, are you dissatisfied with Young Master Shao?â
âSigh.â Gu Dajiang shook his head. âItâs because Iâm satisfied that Iâm worried.â
Xue Rong was puzzled.
Gu Dajiang said, âHow old do you think our Yundong is? Why is he obsessed with her? The problem is that I canât find an excuse to break them up and let Yundong stay single for a few more years.â
Xue Rong was speechless. He was not a father yet. He could not understand that. He was still at the stage where he wanted to steal other peopleâs cabbages.
Hence, Xue Rong did not know what to say. However, when he saw his master sitting there motionless, he could not help but persuade him, âActually, Master, why donât you think in another direction? Young Master Shao has no parents. If Miss marries him, she can be the head of the family and donât have to serve her in-laws. Moreover, Young Master Shaoâs family is in Yongfu Village. His house is next door. Itâs only two steps away. Usually, he can come to the Gu family directly for food or anything. We can know if Miss has suffered or not even if she doesnât go out. This way, itâs better than marrying into a rich family.â
Of course, Gu Dajiang knew these principles. It was because he knew that he didnât object strongly.
Exhaling, Gu Dajiang closed the wooden box on the table and stood up to walk out. âIâll go and see if heâs awake.â
He went straight to Shao Qingyuanâs room. Just as he reached the door, he heard his sonâs voice.
