Gu Yundong realized that she had always treated Madam Yang as a child. She wanted her to do whatever she wanted. Her mother could work, rest, and play as she pleased.
However, she had forgotten that no matter how young a child was, they would have their own favorite things, even if it was in stages.
Madam Yang liked flowers. In the past, when the Gu family’s conditions didn’t allow it, she didn’t show it. Now that the conditions allowed it, she had already developed a habit of keeping it to herself and never mentioned it.
Mother Su saw that Gu Yundong was staring at the flower in her hand without saying anything. She was a little nervous and asked softly, “Boss, is there a problem with the flower?”
“No.” Gu Yundong came back to her senses and hurriedly shook her head. She smiled and said, “I just think that these flowers are quite beautiful.”
Mother Su explained, “When I came back from buying groceries just now, I met a young lady selling flowers. I saw her accidentally trip over a rock and almost fell. I helped her up. Look, she gave me a flower.”
At that time, it was really quite dangerous. If the young lady really fell, she would have fallen into the water.
She was actually a little afraid that Gu Yundong would misunderstand that she had used the money Gu Yundong had given her to buy flowers, so she explained very clearly. “I also think that these flowers are quite beautiful. I saw a small bottle in the backyard. I will plug it in and place it on the table. Everyone will be in a good mood just by looking at it.”
Gu Yundong nodded. “Then Aunt, do you know where people sell flowers nearby? I want to buy some and bring them home.”
Mother Su was stunned and immediately reacted. “Well, I’m not familiar with this area. However, the young lady who sold flowers just now told me that there’s a market at the end of Dahui Road. It specializes in selling flowers, birds, fish, insects, cats, dogs, and some porcelain, antiques, and wood carvings. That young lady’s stall is in the corner of the market.”
Gu Yundong raised her eyebrows. There was actually such a flower and bird market?
She nodded and looked at Feng Daneng, who was busy. She said goodbye to him and left.
When the carriage reached the end of Dahui Road, there was indeed a market bustling with noise.
Gu Yundong had just alighted from the carriage when she heard many people greeting her by the roadside.
“Come and take a look. This is my family’s ancestral jade pendant. Look at the color and feeling, it’s really top-grade. Most importantly, it’s cheap. It only costs five taels of silver.”
Gu Yundong quickened her pace. The ancestral jade pendant only cost five taels of silver. This was too exaggerated. At least make it more realistic.
She walked inside and stopped at the place where the flowers were sold. Indeed, she saw a little girl squatting in front of a stall.
However, the little girl was not in a good state at this moment. There was a small potted plant in front of her that had shattered. The flowers inside were lying on the ground, revealing their tender roots.
The little girl wiped her tears sadly and carefully picked up the flower and placed it aside. Then, she slowly placed the soil on the ground into the broken jar.
Gu Yundong had just frowned when she heard a mean voice. “Serves you right. Who asked you to refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit? Twenty copper coins for a pot is not cheap. I wanted all your flowers in one go. You and your mother could go home earlier, but you refused. You really don’t know what’s good for you.”
Gu Yundong looked in the direction of the voice and saw a middle-aged man standing there.
She paused. She felt that this person looked familiar.
