“Why wouldn’t I know? Look at Jiang Yongkang. Although he’s dressed decently, is energetic, and speaks politely, you can tell at a glance that he hasn’t studied.”
Dong Xiulan was puzzled. “You don’t seem to like Jiang Yongkang. Didn’t he help bring you back earlier?”
Zeng Hu stood up and walked out. “What’s there not to like? He’s from town, and I’m just a farmer. It should be he who doesn’t like me. I just feel uncomfortable talking to him.”
He thought about it and didn’t know how to express it. “He likes to talk word by word. He starts quoting ancient books after two sentences. I get a headache and can’t chat with him.”
“Then you’re finished. Yundong’s father has studied, so there’s a lot of ink in his stomach. He must know more words. When he comes to visit us later, you won’t be able to entertain him.”
Zeng Hu shook his head. “This is different.”
It wasn’t like he hadn’t spoken to a scholar before. For example, Mr. Qin had come to Yongfu Village a few times before. He had only met him twice at the door and spoken more than a few words.
However, there was no awkwardness. Instead, it made people feel very comfortable.
Mr. Qin didn’t talk too much. He just chatted normally. He talked about things others knew. Sometimes, as he talked, others would forget that he was actually a man with a lot of experience.
In Zeng Hu’s opinion, this was a true scholar.
Jiang Yongkang looked a little out of place.
But no matter what, he had never seen Gu Dajiang before and did not know his personality.
However, he was still very happy that the Gu family was reunited.
It was not just his family. Many people in the village had seen them along the way and naturally knew that Gu Yundong’s father had returned.
For a moment, everyone began to discuss.
Many people would stop them and ask questions. By the time Gu Yundong and the others reached the village chief’s house, half an hour had passed.
The first person to see them was Chen Jincai. He almost jumped up when he saw Gu Yundong.
No, he had just gone to her not long ago, and now she was here. Was she going to settle scores with him?
Gu Yundong smiled, and Gu Dajiang, who was beside her, spoke first.
“Excuse me, is the village chief at home?”
Only then did Chen Jincai stop his gaze on him. After a slight pause, he nodded. “He is. Come in.”
As he spoke, he turned around and called for his father.
Chen Liang knew that Gu Yundong had returned, but he did not know that Gu Dajiang had also been found.
When she saw them, she was really shocked and her eyes widened in surprise.
In fact, his initial thoughts were similar to Aunt Ke’s. He also felt that Gu Dajiang was either gone or he was most likely remarried and had children outside. It was unlikely that he would return.
Unexpectedly, he really appeared. Moreover, from the looks of it, he cherished Madam Yang, his wife.
Chen Liang thought that it was no wonder that he could raise three children like Yundong and her siblings.
As expected, a father had a huge impact on his children.
As Chen Liang spoke to Gu Dajiang, he thought about many things.
When he knew that Gu Dajiang had come to his house as soon as he returned, he couldn’t suppress the joy on his face. This meant that the man valued him.
Scholars were indeed different. They knew etiquette.
In his happiness, Chen Liang could not help but pull him along and say a few more words.
It was only when Gu Yundong saw that it was almost lunchtime that she interrupted them and expressed that they had to go back.
However, before she left, she took another look at Chen Jincai.
