Chapter 726: Affection Is Gone
Editor: Henyee Translations
An unnatural look flashed across Tong An’s face.
Gu Yundong did not notice and continued to walk forward.
Only then did Tong An take a few steps forward and say, “She went to the county city today to sell her embroidery work.”
“Really? How’s her embroidery sales these days?”
Tong An quickly lowered his head and said softly, “Well, I’m not too sure.”
Gu Yundong nodded and did not ask further. After all, there were differences between men and women. It was indeed inappropriate for Tong An to ask too much about Shen Sitian’s private matters.
She changed her mind and asked about other things. Tong An exhaled slightly before continuing.
The Zeng family was getting better and better now. It was said that they would renovate the house next year and plan to build two more rooms. At that time, they would give each of the children a room.
Compared to the Zeng family, the Shi family had changed even more.
Not only did the Shi couple manage the orchard for Gu Yundong, but they also earned a lot of money. Coupled with Zhuangzi, who was now the shopkeeper, the changes in the Shi family were visible to the naked eye.
During this period of time, the Shi family had already been renovating the house. In addition, Lan Hua’er and Jiang Bao had just gotten engaged and were about to get married next year. However, Lan Hua’er did not have a proper boudoir of her own. The Shi couple wanted her to get married in a grand manner, so the first thing they renovated was Lan Hua’er’s boudoir.
Now that Lan Hua’er matter was settled, Zhuangzi was still alone.
The Shi couple was very anxious. Their neighbors and friends stared at Zhuangzi as if he was fat meat. They wished they could tie him up and make him their son-in-law.
This was a shopkeeper. He had become the head shopkeeper of a county shop at such a young age. He was too promising. Moreover, the Shi couple had a good personality and were not domineering. His sister-in-law was about to get married and they were even renovating the old house. Which woman would not enjoy life after marrying him?
However, Zhuangzi was unwilling no matter what. He simply did not come back after his family said too much. During the past ten days, he had been living in the county shop for half of the time. If there was anything, he would ask Chen Jincai to help pass on a message.
Gu Yundong did not know whether to laugh or cry when she heard that. This was a career-type man, completely devoted to work.
Speaking of Chen Jincai, Tong An suddenly thought of something.
“Madam Fang even returned to Yongfu Village and ran to the village chief’s house to cause a scene. It could be said that she ruined her last relationship with the Chen family.”
“What did she do?”
“She said that Jiang Yongkang was not nice to her and scolded her every day. She asked the village chief to help divorce him. However, the village chief is in an awkward position right now. He’s neither from Madam Fang’s maternal family nor from her husband’s family. Madam Fang is no longer a member of Yongfu Village either. He couldn’t care less about her, so he asked her to talk to her maternal family. Seeing that he was unwilling to help, Madam Fang cursed him for his lack of conscience and kept slandering him.”
In the end, Madam Zhou couldn’t take it anymore and went up to slap Madam Fang twice. The two of them started fighting.
Later on, for some reason, Madam Fang accidentally bumped into Chen Jincai’s 12-year-old son. His son’s head hit the door frame on the spot, scaring the entire family.
Fortunately, the doctor said that it was nothing serious. Only then did the Chen family heave a sigh of relief. However, they had completely drawn a line with Madam Fang and would pretend not to know this person from now on.
When Gu Yundong heard this, she sighed with emotion. The Fang family was really walking further and further down the path of courting death.
As they spoke, the two of them had already arrived at the entrance of the Gu family’s workshop.
When she saw Gu Yundong enter, everyone in the workshop greeted her. They looked very happy.
