Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Gu Yundong raised her eyebrows. “What do you think?”

“I…” Zhuangzi took a deep breath. “I want to go to the prefectural city and continue working for Shopkeeper Zheng.”

He raised his head. When he spoke, the expression between his brows was exceptionally firm. It seemed like he had made up his mind.

Gu Yundong was not surprised at all. “Have you thought it through? Will you regret it?”

“No.” Zhuangzi grinned. “Although being a shopkeeper has always been my goal, I have a bigger goal now.”

Gu Yundong was suspicious. Why? Could it be that you want to be the boss now?

Zhuangzi clenched his fists. “I want to be a shopkeeper in the prefecture capital.”

Gu Yundong was speechless. It was indeed a bigger goal.

She wanted to laugh, but she couldn’t. She tried her best to nod with a straight face. “Alright, it’s good that you’ve thought it through. However, you still have to work hard in the county city for the next three months. You’re not allowed to slack off. You can go to the prefectural city in three months. Oh right, tell your parents about this so that they won’t worry.”

“I’ve told them. Father and Mother support me very much.”

Actually, the reason why Zhuangzi had said that he would consider it was not only because of the rare position of shopkeeper, but also because he was worried about his parents and sister.

Shi Dashan and his wife were weak. Although Zhuangzi expected better from them, he had been protecting them.

In the past, when he was a hooligan, he could directly go to people’s houses to teach those who bullied his parents a lesson. Later on, he stopped being a hooligan and became a shop assistant. However, he could still go home every two to three days. He knew the situation at home and could help.

If he went to the prefectural city and only returned once every month, he would regret it if anything happened to his parents and he couldn’t help.

Later, when Shi Dashan and his wife found out that Gu Yundong wanted him to work in the prefectural city, they tried their best to persuade him to accept. Although he was still an assistant, he would see the world in the prefectural city and would only improve in the future. This was their son’s future. How could they stop him?

Moreover, ever since they helped the Gu family manage the orchard, be it the villagers or their relatives, nobody mocked them any longer. Everybody wanted them to help put in a few good words in front of the boss, so that they could enter the Gu family’s workshop.

Only then did Zhuangzi realize that his family’s situation had improved a lot. He should have trusted Gu Yundong. With her around, she would not let anyone bully the Shi family.

Therefore, Zhuangzi decided to go to the prefectural city to see the world. Moreover, he had also thought about it. When he became the shopkeeper of the prefectural city in the future, he could buy a house in the prefectural city and bring his parents over to enjoy life.

His parents had never left Fengkai County in their lives. He had to let them see the prosperity of the prefecture city, right?

Zhuangzi knew his parents very well. He knew that although they were very good at planting fruit trees, they were actually not suitable to be managers. In the future, the owner’s orchard would only grow bigger and bigger. They would definitely find more capable people to help.

As far as he knew, Uncle Zhao was very eye-catching to the boss.

Of course, Zhuangzi was happy that Uncle Zhao’s family could rise. His son, Gousheng, was his good friend. If they could get rich, everyone could get rich together.

Seeing that he had thought it through, Gu Yundong nodded. “That’s good.”

As she spoke, she bade farewell to Zhuangzi and was helped into the carriage by Tong Shuitao.

When the carriage went further and further away and was almost out of sight, Zhuangzi suddenly turned around and entered the shop. He said to Chen Jincai, “You still don’t admit that you’re stupid. When the boss came just now, why didn’t you pour a glass of water? You’re really stupid.”

He was just a shopkeeper for three months. No matter what, he had to satisfy himself first.
