Chapter 432: Children Are Debts

Madam Zhou had made up her mind to look for Gu Yundong. She did not even tell Chen Liang.
But when she reached the Gu residence, she saw that Aunt Ke and the others had just turned around. Gu Yundong had already left.
Aunt Ke invited her in. She shook her head, forcing a smile on her face.
Aunt Ke had also heard a little about what had happened in her family recently. Seeing this, she could not help but raise her eyebrows and ask, “You’re looking for Yundong for your first son, right?”
Madam Zhou laughed dryly. “No, no.”
“Whether it’s true or not, I’m afraid you have to wait for Yundong to come back first.”
Madam Zhou knew that Tong An was in charge of the workshop now. Tong An was a servant of the Gu family and had the right to manage it. However, he could not recruit people without Gu Yundong’s instructions.
She could ask Gu Yundong for help because of Gu Yundong’s friendship with the Chen family, but she did not have much of a relationship with Tong An.
Madam Zhou did not know what to feel. She felt vexed and relieved.
She had no choice but to come over because she was annoyed by her eldest son at home. Seeing that his second son was becoming more and more promising in the Gu family, collecting fruits everywhere outside, and even buying some snacks for the children to eat when he came back, Chen Liang valued him more and more.
The eldest son’s life was too smooth-sailing in the past. After the work in town was gone, he came back and was laughed at by many people.
Especially when he was working in the fields, his energy was not even comparable to hers. He could even knock his feet with a hoe. He was not someone born to do this at all. In addition, his wife was not someone who could endure hardship. Every day, she would complain that she was tired even when cooking. When feeding pigs and chickens, she despised the dirt. For this, the second daughter-in-law’s face darkened.
As for their son, he was also studying in town now. He was two years older than Niu Dan and lived in his grandfather’s house. He was quite obedient.
The atmosphere in the house was getting tenser and tenser. The two brothers even quarreled yesterday. This had never happened before, which made Madam Zhou anxious. She wondered if she could ask Gu Yundong for help.
After Madam Zhou left, Aunt Ke shook her head. Fortunately, she did not have any children. Otherwise, she would still have to worry about them when she was old.
Looking at Madam Zhou, she used to be so energetic. Her eldest son had only been back for a few months, but she looked like she had aged a few years.
Aunt Ke shook her head and turned to enter.
Gu Yundong had already followed Shao Qingyuan to the Zheng family’s bodyguard agency.
This was her first time here. The Zheng family’s bodyguard agency was indeed not big and there were not many escorts, but all of them were energetic and seemed to be loyal.
Shao Qingyuan had said two days ago that Gu Yundong would travel with them.
Hence, no one was surprised to see Gu Yundong.
Moreover, because Zheng Gang was the shopkeeper of Gu’s, Zheng Gang’s wife warmly served her tea and brought out the snacks she had made for her to eat.
Gu Yundong had met her before. Previously, during the new year, Zheng Gang had brought her to Yongfu Village to celebrate the new year. She was a straightforward and generous aunt.
The people from the escort agency were all preparing outside. The team would set off after seven o’clock.
Gu Yundong chatted with Zheng Gang’s wife in the hall for a while before walking leisurely to the courtyard. She watched as everyone carried the things to the carriage.
She moved closer to Shao Qingyuan and asked, “What are you bringing to Qing’an Prefecture this time?”
Shao Qingyuan’s expression was complicated as he looked at the carriage in front of him in silence.
After a long time, he said, “Wine.”
Wine??
Gu Yundong was about to ask something when she heard a familiar voice outside..
