68 Chapter 68 Purpose
Zhou Ying nodded thoughtfully, then said, âThen weâll wait for Mrs. Liuâs apology?â
âWith Mrs. Liuâs character, I doubt she will. Moreover, the old man wouldnât let her come over to apologize to a youngling like me. âGu Chengrui paused for a moment and said, âBabe, if they dare to make things difficult for you, donât be soft-hearted, or there will be endless trouble in the future.â
âDonât worry, just based on the fact that they owe me two lives, I wonât be soft-hearted toward them.â
âThatâs good. Donât fight with force. If thereâs anything, letâs discuss it. â
!!
âAlright, hurry up and eat. Otherwise, these dumplings will turn into a lump.â After Zhou Ying finished speaking, she continued eating the dumplings.
On the other hand, the two Gu brothers went out one after another. Second uncle Gu still wanted to persuade his brother, but Father Gu did not give him a chance. He just rushed home in a rage.
âThird brother, whatâs wrong with you two? Are you two fighting?â The patriarch, who was walking towards them, asked.
The village chief, following behind him, chimed in, âThatâs right. Letâs talk it out. Weâre all family, and no obstacle canât be overcome. â
âSigh, donât mention it. We went to Chengruiâs place just nowâ¦.â Second uncle Gu explained.
But before he could finish his words, Father Gu interrupted him, âStop talking, arenât you ashamed?â
After he said that, he greeted the patriarch and the village chief before rushing home.
Second uncle Gu helplessly shook his head at the two of them and followed Father Gu.
After they had walked far away, the village chief looked at the patriarch and asked, âQingzhi, do they have the same goal as us?â
âIt should be, but it looks like he struck a nail.â The patriarch replied thoughtfully.
âOtherwise, Seventh brother would not have looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated.â
âThen, weâ¦â
âLetâs go take a look first. There are conflicts between them, and some things are easier for us to discuss. But of course, we wouldnât let the young couple take the short end of the stick.â
âThatâs for sure. Itâs not easy for them either.â
After that, they walked toward Gu Chengruiâs house. When they reached the entrance, they shouted and avoided Er Zhuang as they entered the house.
Gu Chengrui happened to meet the two at the door. The village chief pointed at the yuba and asked, âChengrui, what are you guys making? The yellow ones look pretty good. â
âItâs a bean product that Ying made. Itâs cold outside, Uncle and Grandpa village chief, you should come inside. âGu Chengrui let them into the house.
The village head looked at the yuba thoughtfully. If the couple had a new source of income, it would be easier for them to ask for the bean sprouts.
When Zhou Ying saw them coming in, she naturally knew their purpose. She greeted them and went to the kitchen with their bowls and chopsticks. After washing up, she made a pot of chrysanthemum rock candy tea for them. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
It just so happened that they were almost done with the small talk, so the patriarch asked, âI think you and your wife more or less know the purpose of our visit today. â
âI guess. Itâs about the bean sprouts, right?â Gu Chengrui nodded.
âYes, thatâs why weâre here with our thick skin to ask for your opinion.â The patriarch nodded.
âBut, itâs not something forced.â The village chief added.
âAs you know, even though our village is better off than the other villages, thatâs when itâs considered as a whole.
âNearly half of the families here are still living a bitter life, so itâs best to teach them.
âOf course, even if you did teach them, I wouldnât let you do so for free. You can state any conditions you want. If they accept, then go ahead. If they donât, then itâs their own business.â
