Chapter 623: Check the Shop

Editor: Henyee Translations

On the other side, Gu Yunke had already peeled off a pile of shells on the table.

Tong Shuitao knew what this was. Although she was a little hesitant at first, ever since the fragrance wafted into her nose, she no longer had any thoughts. She quickly ate.

The Gu family did not say anything. They did not think so before, but now they realized that there seemed to be a lot of people, but too few cicadas.

Aunt Ke had always despised it. Even though she had salivated because of the fragrance, she had never thought of eating it.

However, now that she saw that everyone at the table was like the reincarnation of a hungry ghost and did not even have the time to speak, afraid that it would delay them from eating, she actually became suspicious.

Was it really… that delicious?

She hesitated again and again. Seeing that everyone’s heads were lowered, she finally couldn’t help but secretly take one. Then, she turned around as if nothing had happened and looked at the black cicada. She closed her eyes and bit it.

Eh? It’s actually not bad? It doesn’t feel disgusting at all. It smells good.

Aunt Ke expressed that she could still accept this.

After finishing the one in her mouth, she turned around and was about to take another one when she realized that… it was empty.

Both plates were empty. Were these people the reincarnations of hungry ghosts?

Ah Zhu leaned back in the chair in satisfaction and sighed. “I didn’t expect this cicada to be so delicious. Why didn’t I notice it before? Ah Shu, why don’t we catch another bag of cicadas tomorrow?”

“Sure,” Ah Shu agreed.

Shao Qingyuan glanced at them from the corner of his eye. “Capture and fry them by yourselves.”

Ah Zhu and Ah Shu were speechless. Wasn’t this making things difficult for them?

However, they did not dare to let Gu Yundong cook for them, so they could only look at Tong Shuitao.

The latter thought of the delicious food in her mouth and clicked her tongue.

She nodded straightforwardly. “Sure, no problem.”

Only then was Shao Qingyuan satisfied. He asked about the situation at Tianhai Academy today.

Everyone was very happy to know that Gu Dajiang had passed Mountain Elder Qi’s assessment and could report to the academy tomorrow.

Shao Qingyuan was also progressing smoothly.

“The shop assistant called Laixi brought us to see five shops. I bought two that are quite close. One will be Gu’s, and the other will be a pharmacy in the future. Do you want to take a look tomorrow?”

Shao Qingyuan wanted to buy two adjacent shops, but it was too difficult. He could only find two close ones.

The pharmacy was not in a hurry. The county’s pharmacy had just started on the track. It was not easy to buy medicinal herbs, especially when they had to find a shopkeeper who knew medicine. Therefore, they had to be steady and not be in a hurry.

“I’ll go take a look.” Gu Yundong was still a little surprised. He did not expect it to be decided in a day.

She turned to look at Gu Dajiang. “Father, is it okay for you to go to the academy tomorrow?”

Gu Dajiang had just taken a sip of water when he almost choked as he heard this.

He looked at his daughter with a complicated expression. “Yundong, I’m not a child anymore. I’m already in my thirties. I can even go to the capital alone, let alone the academy.”

Gu Yundong laughed dryly before realizing that Gu Dajiang was not Madam Yang or Yunshu or Yunke.

“Then I’ll go look at the shops tomorrow.”

Gu Dajiang waved his hand. “Go, go. Go do your work.”

Hence, the next day, Gu Yundong, Shao Qingyuan, Zheng Gang, and the others went to the shops. Gu Dajiang and Xue Rong went to the academy, while the others went to the house they had bought yesterday to tidy up the courtyard.
