Chapter 561: Finally Back

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Gu Yundong could tell that he was worried. She did not know whether to laugh or cry.

“Father, what are you thinking about?” She laughed. “Don’t think that you’re adding to my burden. I don’t feel tired doing business and opening a shop. This is something I like to do. Opening another shop is an additional sense of achievement for me. I’m enjoying this process.”

Gu Dajiang was stunned.

Enjoy??

This was the first time he had heard such a statement.

“Father, I know that you want to take care of me and share my burden, but I think that no matter who it is, they have their own path to take. I like to do business, so I chose this path. To me, this is not hard and exhausting work, but a career that can bring me energy. And studying is the path Father should take.” “B-but…” How was he going to reply?

“Father, if you want to help me, then go to the academy in the prefecture capital. A person can only unleash his greatest strength in his area of expertise. Think about it. If you get a scholarship and even befriend many like-minded classmates, won’t it be more helpful to my future business?”

Gu Dajiang seemed to be enlightened and suddenly woke up. Yundong had simply provided him with a new idea.

Yes, Yundong lacked connections and people with achievements.

He was too narrow-minded.

Gu Dajiang instantly felt comfortable. He felt as if all his depression had been swept away.

He immediately laughed heartily. “Yes, Yundong is right. I’m not as far-sighted as you.”

It wasn’t that he was inferior to her, but Gu Dajiang had always placed his family first. This caused him to be limited when making a choice.

Fortunately, he was convinced.

The carriage drove all the way into Yongfu Village. When they reached home, Gu Yundong told them about Gu Dajiang going to the prefectural city to study. At the same time, she said to Aunt Ke, “Aunt, wait a few more days. When the time comes, Father and I will go to the prefectural city. We’ll have company together.”

Aunt Ke glared at her helplessly and did not say anything else.

After dinner, Gu Yundong turned around and went to Chen Liang’s house. He instructed Chen Jincai to go to the shop the next day.

When she came back, she went to the Zeng family again. Two days ago, she had promised Dong Xiulan to find a school suitable for Zeng Jia to study in. Now was the time to tell her.

Gu Yundong was talking about a private school in the neighboring village. It was Qin Wenzheng who had told her.

He had met and interacted with the gentleman from the private school and had a good impression of him.

Gu Yundong felt that it was very suitable for Zeng Jia. It was not very far, and he didn’t have to participate in the imperial examination.

Madam Dong trusted Gu Yundong very much and agreed on the spot. She said that she would bring Zeng Jia to take a look another day.

After Gu Yundong left, she hurriedly thought about preparing the apprenticeship gift.

Zeng Hu felt that the canned food was not bad. “Look, the Gu family also took canned food when they visited Master Qin. This thing is not cheap. We work in the Gu family’s workshop and can buy it with a discount. It’s definitely not wrong to take this.”

Madam Dong nodded repeatedly. “You’re right. It’s definitely not a problem to follow Yundong.”

Therefore, the next day, Madam Dong took Zeng Jia to the private school with the canned food.

She was very excited when she returned. She had always kept a low profile in the village and did not speak much. Now whenever she met anyone, she had to tell them that her son was going to school.

Even when she reached home, the excitement did not subside.

Then, she saw Shao Qingyuan, who had just walked into the Shao family’s courtyard.

Madam Dong was stunned. Qingyuan was back?

She quickly let Zeng Jia enter the house first and hurried to the Shao family’s courtyard.
