“I’ll work for you now. When I save enough money, I’ll buy my own medicinal field,” Tian Liu asserted, a hint of embarrassment coloring his words. His genuine fondness for herb cultivation, nurtured over the years, now motivated him to pursue this passion. “You can pay me less; it’s not an issue.”
Gu Chaoyan chuckled, appreciating the simplicity and honesty in the young man.
Coincidentally, the Yan family possessed fifteen acres of farmland that required attention, making it an ideal fit for Tian Liu’s aspirations.
“If you’re willing, that’s wonderful! We have fifteen mu of farmland and five mu of land for you to manage. I’ll hire some villagers to assist with planting, and you can supervise them. Feel free to learn on your own when you’re free. I’m not concerned about the salary; you’ll receive one tael of silver per month here. If you perform well, you can earn additional reward money,” Gu Chaoyan explained. “Tomorrow, we’ll identify suitable helpers.”
Tian Liu happily nodded in agreement.
Auntie Lianhua, thinking the salary might be too generous, considered expressing her concerns. However, Hunter Tian restrained her, prompting her to abandon the idea.
“Then I’ll handle the carriage in the future,” Tian Qi proposed with a smile.
“No, your parents aren’t getting any younger. Aside from managing the wagon, you’ll learn about business operations in the store. When the time is right, you’ll delve into these matters to ensure your parents can enjoy their time,” Gu Chaoyan directed. “Since you’re taking on two responsibilities, I’ll pay you two taels of silver.”
While Gu Chaoyan allowed flexibility, there were aspects she deemed necessary to manage strictly. The two brothers, driven by strong morals and as Tian Jiu’s elder siblings, were willing to contribute.
Auntie Lianhua expressed her reluctance, feeling that the family was gaining too much at the Yan family’s expense.
“Auntie Lianhua, if we were to hire someone for these long-term tasks in the city, the cost would be considerably higher. Additionally, I believe that Tian Liu and Tian Qi have promising futures. Wouldn’t it be mutually beneficial for our families to support each other in the future? Consider it my narrow-mindedness,” Gu Chaoyan responded with a smile.
Auntie Lianhua found herself momentarily unsure of how to respond, torn between accepting or rejecting the generous offers.
“You both must perform your duties diligently. No matter what the future holds, no matter the Yan family’s fortunes, you must take the lead, understand?” Hunter Tian asserted with seriousness.
“Understood,” the siblings replied solemnly.
Hunter Tian exchanged an embarrassed glance with Gu Chaoyan before lowering his head.
Gu Chaoyan couldn’t help but smile, fully comprehending Hunter Tian’s unspoken message—it aligned perfectly with her intentions.
The family members were astute, and Gu Chaoyan appreciated her interactions with the Tian family.
On the other hand, Auntie Lianhua, being more straightforward, still harbored reservations about the offered salary.
Eventually, she was convinced.
As darkness settled in, they decided to head back home.
The next day, Tian Liu would resume his work.
As they gathered at home, Gu Chaoyan addressed her siblings before bedtime, “You all know that the Yan family isn’t to be easily bullied. Be confident when you’re outside, but avoid arrogance. There’s always someone more skilled. Arrogance can lead to consequences like those we witnessed today, understand?”
