Gu Dafeng looked at her bag in high spirits. âIâm going to the market to sell wooden carvings.â
âNow?â
âYes, I prepared for a day yesterday. I set a price for each wooden sculpture and memorized it. Iâm prepared to do something big today.â
What she did not say was that she had rehearsed in her room for a long time yesterday. She had practiced how to receive guests, how to speak, and how to treat people who made things difficult for her.
First of all, she had to smile. Gu Yundong had always been smiling when she treated the two quarreling madams that day.
However, she could not be afraid and let others think that she was easy to bully.
Gu Dafeng was a little regretful now. In the past, when Bian Han went to sell the wooden carvings, she did not go with him. Otherwise, she would not be so inexperienced.
Gu Yundong did not expect her to be so well-prepared. At this moment, if given a lever, she seemed to be able to prop up an entire planet.
She smiled and stepped forward. âIâll go with Eldest Aunt.â
âNo need, no need. How can I rely on you for everything? Iâm already an adult and your elder. I canât keep asking you to take care of me. Iâll go myself. Itâs fine. If I canât sell them today, I can continue tomorrow. Iâll slowly figure it out. It wonât always fail to sell.â
Gu Yundong really had a good impression of Eldest Aunt Gu. She thought about Gu Qiuyue and then looked at Eldest Aunt Gu.
She knew that Old Gu was a blind fool. He did not value his eldest son and daughter who were really promising. He only knew how to torture them and specially dote on those useless people. It would be strange if he had a good ending.
âThen Iâll send Eldest Aunt over. Itâs your first time going to the market, so you definitely donât know the way. By the time you find the place, it might be noon. There wonât be any place for you to set up at the market.â
Gu Dafeng thought about it and agreed. âAlright, then bring me there. But weâve agreed that youâll go after that.â
âOf course. Iâll come back after sending Eldest Aunt off. I guarantee that I wonât even enter the market. Iâll let Eldest Aunt do everything herself.â
Gu Dafeng smiled and followed her into the carriage. Tong Shuitao drove them there.
Gu Yundong was a woman of her word. When they arrived outside the market, she put Gu Dafeng down and waved goodbye to her.
Gu Dafeng entered the market, but Gu Yundong did not leave. She asked Tong Shuitao to watch the carriage and followed her.
Yes, she was just curious about what Eldest Aunt would do. She was purely curious.
Unbeknownst to Gu Dafeng, her tail had been behind her. When she reached the entrance of the market, she could not help but tighten her grip on her bag. After hesitating for a moment, she strode in.
She remembered that Yundong had told her that the first seats in the market were the mother and daughter pair who sold flowers.
The young ladyâs name was Xiao Yuan, and she was about ten years old.
Therefore, as soon as she entered, Gu Dafeng looked in that direction and indeed saw the stall with more than 20 bright potted plants in front of her.
The person sitting behind the flowers with a small stool was a young lady.
The young lady was watering the flowers with a kettle. She looked serious and obedient, just as Yundong had described.
Gu Dafeng immediately became happy and walked up to them.
The little girl looked up and immediately put on a smile. âAunt, do you want to buy flowers?â
Gu Dafeng shook her head and asked, âIs your name Xiao Yuan?â
âYes, Auntie knows me?â
Gu Dafengâs eyes lit up even more. Her happy expression made Xiao Yuanâs mother, Madam Fan, who was arranging the flowers, immediately vigilant. She stood in front of Gu Dafeng and frowned. âWhatâs the matter?â
