Nie Shuang wanted to go forward and knock on the door, but this couple came first. Since this couple came first, they were naturally the first.
The woman said something to her husband. She took a deep breath and went forward to knock on the door. However, after knocking for a long time, the door did not open.
Bao Lingyue found it strange. Didnât the Gu family have servants? Why was the gatekeeper so unreliable? He didnât even guard it.
Immediately after, the two of them heard the woman call out, âUncle, Aunt, itâs Yulan. Open the door.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Nie Shuang and Bao Lingyue were stunned. Uncle? Aunt? Were they Gu Yundongâs parents?
She had never heard of Gu Yundong having any cousins. Didnât Gu Yundong say that she only had one relative, Eldest Aunt Gu?
Nie Shuang suddenly realized that she must have found the wrong person.
She pulled Bao Lingyue along, wanting to leave, but she did not expect to hear the manâs impatient voice. âThatâs enough. They deliberately refused to open the door. Your uncle has already said that he has severed ties with you, so why are you still looking for him?â
Chen Yulan was furious. âWhy are you still saying such things? If your mother hadnât gone overboard back then and insisted on slandering Niu Dan as a thief, would my uncle have been so cold-hearted and refused to interact with us?â
âMy mother just said it casually. If Gu Yundong had not meddled in other peopleâs business, things would not have turned out like this.â
Gu Yundong??
Nie Shuang and Bao Lingyue stopped in their tracks and pricked up their ears to listen.
When Chen Yulan saw that there were people around, she quickly came up and pulled Wu Chong. âKeep your voice down. Your shop still needs her.â
As she spoke, she pulled Wu Chong out. âIt seems that my uncle and aunt are not at home. Forget it, Iâll come another day.â
Wu Chong snorted coldly. âI donât think thereâs a need to come over. Only my mother listens to your nonsense about how good the things in Guâs are. So what if they sell well? We donât have the money to buy goods. Your cousin is just a shop assistant in Guâs. What can he help with? Look at what he can do. I feel embarrassed to see him ordered around by that hooligan from your village.â
Nie Shuang and Bao Lingyue did not hear the rest of the sentence, but they knew that these two people definitely had a feud with Gu Yundong and looked very shameless.
The two of them were filled with righteous indignation, but when they thought about how they had found the wrong place, they immediately felt a little depressed. They thought that they should quickly ask the others. It was getting late.
At this moment, they heard a laugh from afar. âI knew you would walk towards the middle of the village. You must find the village chiefâs house.â
In Yongfu Village, other than the two houses she and Brother Shao had at the foot of the mountain, the green brick tiled house of the village chief, Chen Liang, was the most eye-catching.
So when Gu Yundong heard Madam Daiâs words, she quickly came out to look for them.
Coincidentally, Chen Liangâs family was at her house today.
As her coming-of-age ceremony was tomorrow, Madam Zhou and Madam Song were both helping her at home. When Chen Liang heard that Gu Dajiang was back, he came to talk to him.
After Gu Dajiang persuaded him, he changed his attitude towards Niu Dan. As expected, this kid was becoming more and more motivated in his studies. It was said that he had even received praise from the teacher last time.
Chen Liang could not wait to share this matter with him.
Therefore, when Chen Yulan and her husband knocked on the door of the Chen familyâs house, it was not that Chen Liang avoided them.
When Nie Shuang and Bao Lingyue saw her, they quickly walked up to her. âSister Yundong.â
âLady Gu.â
Gu Yundong was rather curious as to why Bao Lingyue had come, but before she could ask, Bao Lingyue spoke first.
âLady Gu, I have a big piece of news for you. Just now, two people were badmouthing you behind your back.â
This was⦠big news??
