Chapter 865
865 Chapter 865-things have come to this
The four Gu sisters followed Lu Zheng back to the village the next day.
No one mentioned li Muyan’s matter anymore. Gu Nian had also given everyone an explanation. She had made it clear that she would have nothing to do with li Muyan from now on.
She had left the cooperation between the Gu sisters and Li Muyan to Gu shouxin and Cai Xiaolian to handle. She didn’t want to care anymore. Anyway, her parents had said that they would be there for her. She also wanted to be a child who was protected!
When she got home, she still told Grandpa Gu and grandma Gu. Grandma Gu didn’t say anything. She went into the house and took two taels of silver to give to Mrs. Zhang. She asked Mrs. Zhang to buy meat from the butcher’s house and make a good meal tonight.
Mrs. Zhang went over happily. She felt that the old lady was watching uncle Gu work hard in the fields and Gu en tired out from tying sandbags to them every day. Well, the old lady finally cared about her son and grandson.
Grandfather Gu chuckled as he said to Gu Nian, ” “Our family’s young lady is not suitable to have a sad face, she should be happy. When they were unhappy, they would sleep and wake up to a new day. I’m a new student every day, and my life will only get better and better.”
Gu Nian nodded in agreement.
What did this matter of hers count for? Didn’t grandfather Gu also live happily for the rest of his life when he went from being the Crown Prince to a commoner who could not see the light of day?
Therefore, one had to look forward. Life was beautiful everywhere, and one should not be blinded by the haze.
As for Xue Qianyu, she had not seen him since she woke up from the alcohol. She did not ask, and Lu Zheng had not mentioned him to her.
It was as if he had not appeared that night. Other than her and Lu Zheng, only Gu en and grandma Xiao knew that Xue Qianyu had been to the village that night.
She knew very well that in her heart, she did not have any romantic feelings for Xue Qianyu. The four pairs of gloves were a gift from Xue Qianyu to Gu shouxin’s daughter and niece. She knew that they would not accept it even if she gave it back.
……
Gu shouxin and Cai Xiaolian returned in the middle of may.
The couple had reached an agreement with the Li family. All the profits from the fu city’s Liansheng Street would go to Madam li and her son, while the Zhou clan town’s profits would go to Cai Xiaolian and her sisters.
In the future, the Gu sisters ‘store would only belong to them. Li Muyan wouldn’t be able to own it.
No one would suffer a loss if they split it like this, and it could also be considered as breaking the cooperation between the two.
As for Madam Li, Li Muyan had already told her the truth. Not only that, but Duke Rong had also told her what he had said to Gu shouxin.
Mrs. Li didn’t even want the profits of Liansheng Street anymore. What did her own father and son do? they made her so embarrassed that she couldn’t face her good sister.
She also didn’t ask Cai Xiaolian to forgive her for her sake. She only hoped that their relationship wouldn’t break because of this.
Cai Xiaolian said that they would still be friends in the future. However, they were friends. Her son had hurt her daughter, and her father didn’t like her husband. It was impossible for the two families to have any contact.
Mrs. Li’s heart was filled with panic. Unfortunately, things had already come to this, and nothing could be changed.
She smiled bitterly and asked Cai Xiaolian,”if we weren’t so busy with the incident at Liansheng Street, would we have been able to pay attention to our family?”
Cai Xiaolian didn’t answer her. In this world, there were no ifs.
After returning to the village, Cai Xiaolian’s focus was on Liansheng Street in Zhoujia town. The area wasn’t that big, but the quality wasn’t inferior to that of the prefecture, and many people bought it.
Cai Xiaolian gave three shops to each of her sisters, and she took care of the rest.
As for the house in Zhou town, she gave it to the old couple, the eldest and fourth branch, as well as her third aunt and third uncle. She sold the rest of the houses.
The Zhou clan town had two types of layout. The old Street belonged to old master Zhou, and the new Street belonged to the Gu clan.
