Gu Yundong was stunned. She had always been sharp. From what Dong Xiulan said, the person who asked her for help seemed to have something to do with her? Otherwise, why would Dong Xiulan reassure her?
Dong Xiulan did not realize what she had exposed. She pulled Gu Yundong out.
âAlright, itâs fine. Go back. Didnât you say that youâre going to the prefectural city? Hurry up and prepare the things. Iâll go take a look at Qingyuan.â
âBrother Shao has gone to the county town.â Gu Yundong pulled her back. âAuntie, why did that person ask you for help? It has something to do with me, right? Do they want to enter the workshop, or be a shop assistant, or grow fruit trees in an orchard?â
Dong Xiulan was stunned. How did Yundong know that the personâs request had something to do with her?
She didnât want to answer. âNo, no. It has nothing to do with you.â
...
âIf Auntie doesnât tell me, Iâll take it that the people from the other villages have ulterior motives and Iâll go to look for the village chief.â
Gu Yundong was about to leave when Dong Xiulan hurriedly grabbed her.
She couldnât dissuade her, so she sighed and said irritably, âItâs someone from our village. That person just now was the wife of the second son of the Li family.â
The second son of the Li family? Who was that?
Seeing that she had not thought of him, Dong Xiulan quickly reminded her, âItâs the family that adopted Qingyuan, the second son of the Li family.â
Gu Yundong did not like the Li family at all. Hearing this, she frowned. âHavenât we never interacted? Why are they looking for you?â
âThe second son of the Li family is about to get married. Heâs marrying He Yeâs niece, He Xiu. I donât know what theyâre thinking. They want me to make peace in front of Qingyuan and let him attend the wedding banquet. They even said that what Eldest Li and his wife did was unforgivable, but they didnât harm Qingyuan. No matter what, Qingyuan has called them Second Uncle and Second Aunt for so many years. Theyâre all relatives and should get along.â
Gu Yundong: ???
Relatives? In the past, when Shao Qingyuan lived alone in the straw hut, why didnât Second Uncle and Second Aunt say that they were relatives?
Moreover, the last time she went to Old Master Liâs house to cause a scene, she seemed to have exposed Old Master Liâs true colors, right?
Shao Qingyuan had a grudge against Old Master Li. As his son, how could he have the cheek to say that they were relatives?
Indeed, the charm of money was irresistible.
If Shao Qingyuan was still a poor kid without money, they wouldnât have to go through this.
However, this was not the endâ¦
Dong Xiulan continued, âThereâs also the He family. They heard that Zhuangziâs family went to the prefectural city and insisted that I come to look for you. They said that they wanted you to send a message to Shi Dashan and his wife so that they could come back for the wedding banquet. They said that there was some unhappiness last time. They wanted to take this opportunity to reconcile.â
The He family really didnât know that Zhuangziâs family had gone to the prefectural city. They thought that Shi Dashan and his wife were at least staying at home.@@novelbin@@
Unexpectedly, when they came over, the house was locked.
Gu Yundong was speechless. So severing ties was a joke?
These two families really knew how to find soft persimmons to bully. They knew that Dong Xiulan had a good relationship with them and was soft and easy to talk to, so they asked her to persuade them.
No wonder Auntieâs expression was not good when she entered just now.
âAuntie, you donât have to worry about it. In any case, weâre going to the prefectural city tomorrow. They wonât be able to find us.â
Dong Xiulan nodded. âI know. I didnât plan to agree to them either. Theyâre just too annoying.â
She would go to the workshop in a while. The second son of the Li familyâs wife did not dare to look for her in the workshop anyway.
