And yet…
Gu Yundong did not trust him. She trusted Nie Cong.
Back then, her main requirement was that the village chief’s character was passable. Although Chen Liang had his own thoughts, he was very reliable about big matters. He would definitely not cheat her when it came to building a house.
It was normal for humans to have little thoughts.
Now, as long as she planned the structure of the house as soon as possible, those people could start to work as soon as possible and move in.
When they arrived at the Chen family’s second branch, Gu Yundong took down all the things in the carriage. Chen Yulan enthusiastically helped her move them.
There were not many things. There were only two baskets. She did not need Chen Yulan’s help at all. Gu Yundong and Madam Yang each took one.
Then, she paid the coachman and let him leave.
The Chen family’s second branch was not far from the village chief’s house. There was a small courtyard. There were only the mother and daughter at home, but it was quite clean.
Madam Fang looked like a very weak woman with a faint smile. As soon as she saw them enter, she pulled Madam Yang to talk.
Madam Yang did not know her and was shocked. She immediately hid behind Gu Yundong.
Gu Yundong smiled at Madam Fang. “My mother is timid and not used to interacting with strangers. Aunt Fang, you can tell me anything.”
Madam Fang could also tell that something was wrong with Madam Yang. She smiled and nodded.
Gu Yundong took everything to her room and also brought a small bag of date cakes to Chen Yulan to thank her for her help today. She then said that she was a little tired and wanted to go back to her room to rest.
Chen Yulan took the date cake and went to Madam Fang’s house.
As soon as she entered, her smile disappeared and her face darkened. “To think that 1 was so busy. She didn’t give us as much date cake as she gave Uncle and the others. Who is she looking down on? Isn’t she bullying us orphans and widows?”
Madam Fang opened the date cake and ate it. “Alright, they still have to live with us for a long time in the future. There will always be benefits for us. Didn’t you see that mother of hers? She’s a fool. She even said that she’s timid. Later, we’ll coax that Madam Yang to find some food or other good things for us. I think they must have some family background. By the way, let’s not cook tonight. When they cook, we’ll say a few good words. She’ll be too embarrassed not to invite us to eat.”
“Will she?”
“Why not? They’re new here and don’t even have any relatives or friends. They don’t have any adult men at home either. Wouldn’t they have to build a good relationship with our villagers? Besides, your uncle is the village chief. She has to please us.”
Chen Yulan nodded. I low would Gu Yundong know that although she was just giving them some date cakes as a normal favor, those people were not satisfied at all and wanted more? They even planned to take her dinner.
They didn’t cook lunch. When they came from the county city in the morning, they bought a lot of buns and finished them at noon.
Madam Yang and the two little ones made the bed and went to take an afternoon nap.
Gu Yundong sat at the table, holding a charcoal pencil and paper, and began to draw the layout of the house.
She had pictured modern houses in her mind, but here, many aspects were not easy to implement. She could only try to build them as comfortably and conveniently as possible.
One room for each person, two guest rooms, and two study rooms.
When the house was built and stabilized, she would definitely earn money and send Gu Yunshu to study.
Gu Yunshu had learned some words from Gu Dajiang when he was at home. This child had inherited Gu Dajiang’s talent. If he studied hard, he would definitely not be bad in the future..
