âWhy donât you want my son? My son is an Elementary Scholar. Heâs knowledgeable and capable. If you want those bumpkins, why canât you want my son?â
The womanâs voice was a little loud. Tong An did not expect her to suddenly become so agitated.
He immediately wanted the two of them to leave, but the woman had already shouted inside, âBoss Gu, Boss Gu, quickly come out, right? You manager is not good people. Heâs afraid that my son is an Elementary Scholar who has the ability to snatch his position. He actually doesnât allow my son to come to the workshop to work. My son is an Elementary Scholar, an Elementary Scholar!!â
Gu Yundong and Shao Qingyuan looked at each other and shrugged helplessly.
âLetâs go out and take a look.â
Tong An was furious. He had really underestimated the mother and son. This woman actually sat on the ground and did not leave.
He immediately wanted to get someone to chase them out, but Gu Yundong had already come out.
She glanced at the Madam sitting on the ground, then at the fair youth, and suddenly laughed.
âYour mother is sitting on the ground. Arenât you going to help her?â
The young man looked a little embarrassed. He quickly went forward and wanted to help the woman up.
The woman snorted and looked at Gu Yundong. âWho are you? I want to see Boss Gu.â
âI am she.â
The woman was stunned. She had heard that the eldest daughter of the Gu family was in charge of the Gu familyâs workshop, but she did not expect to see such a weak-looking woman.
Wasnât the boss supposed to be a tigress with a ferocious aura that could intimidate men?
When the young man heard this, he helped his mother up even more anxiously. âMother, stop making a scene.â
The woman stood up unwillingly. Only then did Gu Yundong look at Tong An. âWhat happened?â
âMiss, this gentleman wants to work in the workshop. However⦠the conditions are a little high.â
Right after Tong An said that, he heard the womanâs raised voice. âHow are the conditions high? My son is an Elementary Scholar. If he works here as an accountant, his monthly salary will only be five taels a month. How is that high? Boss Gu, donât listen to his nonsense. I think he treats my son as a threat to his position, so he rejects my son with an excuse.â
Gu Yundong waved her hand, as if she did not want to hear what the woman had to say. She looked at the young man and asked, âYour mother said that youâre an Elementary Scholar, right?â
âThatâs right.â
Gu Yundong smiled. âSince youâre an Elementary Scholar, youâre naturally knowledgeable. Why donât you go to the county city to find work? Even if you donât become a teacher in a rich family, those shops should want you, right? Why do you have to come to a small workshop like mine that has only been open for less than a year to be a accountant?â
This young man looked to be around 20 years old. He was already an Elementary Scholar at such a young age, which meant that he was indeed talented.
The young man was still hesitating when the woman shouted again, âWhy? My son is justâ¦ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âDonât you have a mouth? You keep letting your mother answer questions for you?â
The woman was stunned, and a trace of embarrassment flashed across the young manâs face.
He quickly said, âI heard that the Gu Familyâs workshop has good benefits and high wages, so I came to look for work.â
Gu Yundong smiled and shook her head. âNo matter how good the benefits are, itâs just a small workshop. If you donât want to tell the truth, you can leave.â
After saying that, she turned around and left. The young man immediately panicked. âWait.â
